You may be right out of high school, restarting your education, looking to build your job skills, or seeking a leg-up on college with dual enrollment through your high school. Whoever you are, you will be accepted here* at Mount Wachusett Community College.
Founded in 1963 and accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE), we are a public, two-year college. We are dedicated to serving the people in our region with 70+ credit-bearing degree and certificate programs, non-credit, personal enrichment classes for lifelong learners, and workforce development that includes custom, on-site training.
At the Mount, we see each student as a whole person. You may excel at some things and struggle with others. We understand that you may work or balance a family as you take classes. Our faculty and advisors are here to help you grow and achieve success.
We are Affordable, Convenient, and Student Focused, other colleges, and universities may cost more, but that doesn’t mean they’re worth more. At the Mount, you will get a quality education that can take you places.
You will have something even more valuable than a degree or certificate when you finish – you will have an education that no one can take away from you.
