Best Community College Independence Near Me

Elaine: Bookstore was so so busy, line wrapped around the whole place, but staff was STILL so friendly and helpful. Thank you!!!

Joseph Creel: It was a little different than high school but it's easy to get the hang of if you buckle down and do all your homework. However, they should make sure that they have the books available before a student comes in waiting for their books. The first day of college was a little different and it was very different.

Trill Kiyah: Do they provide laptops? if so what brand...

Hatch Wayne: Good campus although one glaring issue. The library is LOUD, especially in the tutor section. There are students trying to focus and study and being distracted by people talking and laughing loudly is disrespectful and disappointing.

Jackay Smith: So far everyone here has been so nice!

Carl Meade: What a beautiful facility.

Jessica Brumble: I absolutely loved my experience at MCC-Blue River! What you put into your education and experience is what you will get out of it. I made sure to stay in regular communication with my Academic Advisor so I could graduate on time and had no problems transferring to the University of Central Missouri. Most importantly, classes are very affordable and I graduated debt free! By the way, MCC-Blue River is the best of the five MCC campuses in the KC metro area! Don’t let the location fool you. A small campus means better customer service. Oh, did I mention MCC is affordable?! I graduated debt free because the classes are so much lower than any college around! I highly recommend attending MCC-Blue River!!

Zach Lafferty: Good teachers, small class sizes.

Jeremy Ruth: The Welcome Center was very welcoming.

D H: School is absolute trash!! The entire MCC

J W: Honestly worst than high school. All the classes I took were a waste of money and most of the teachers I had were teaching the bare minimum. You’re better off going off and learning things on your own if you’re going into computer science. Wish I left sooner because this was such a waste of 1100 dollars for simple classes. Worst. Decision. Ever.

Christina Fatool: MCC sent my check back saying since we couldn't pay in full or had not set up a specific payment plan through them that they would not accept it. The person I was making a payment for isn't even enrolled with them anymore. I was trying to help her get it paid sooner so if she choose to go back to school there she could. That doesn't sound like they are trying to help their students who are in a financial bind.

Gloria Workman: Observación; deberían dictar cursos de inglés para la comunidad latina de los alrededores,así pueden estas personas ingresar a una carrera universitaria y podrian contribuir en un futuro a la economía de la Ciudad de Independense , muchas gracias.

Elizabeth Durham -Gmail: Love professor Angela Peck. Really breaks down the.science!

Connor Boisen: For a community college this is a reputable school. Very student based, but almost to the point of a large high school, with less rules. Have never had an issue with staff, you like some, you wish you had better sometimes but it was always personable. Not the college experience that some people may want at a university but if you just wanna knock out your credits and get the education, this is the place for to go.

Jake D.: Xd pranked

Nikki Mueller: Slow trying to see anyone!!

Tarah Venezia: This College is so cool ,the staff is dedicated to their students and every body is so friendly and the campus is so clean and beautiful . I love this College and I know you will too.

Jonathan Caviness: Good school

Pat Pat: Love MCC

Bridgett “B” Moore: It has been a good experience with mcckc but I just get very frustrated when I can never get into my accounts and it makes me late on my work like last semester. I was at a 3.6 gpa and because of communication issues I'm down to a 3.0 bc 2 classes got failed 😢

Terance Williams: Caring Giving & supporting the arts has always been a passion of mine. So I decided to take it to another level. Creating this scholarship is more than words... #PoetsEdu

John John: The students of the radiology program were completely let down by the staff and instructors of their program. These students who've invested thousands of dollars and thousand of hours of arduous study only to be made indifferent by the MCC radiology personnel. Things have turned into such a bad state, the entire student body have been contemplating hiring attorneys to address their situation. Until they take corrective measures and do right by their students I would advise anyone thinking of enrolling in their radiology program to think carefully before doing so.

Olivia: The high school program is horrible! They pick and choose which students they want to be successful and drive the students they don't like out the door. Worst mistake I've made for my son was going to the school. None of my kids will enter this building again! I have 1 star because I had to, it really deserves negative stars.

Adam C Johnson: I had an excellent experience, in particular at the Longview branch of MCC. I took 10 classes and obtained my associates degree there. The professors were impressively credentialed and overall great teachers. I liked that there were a number of other non-traditional students as well. Definitely recommended especially if you're returning after a hiatus like myself.

Matthew Wiseman: Had one of the worst interview experiences of my life here. These people are extremely disorganized for starters. They told me they would send me questions prior to the interview so I could prepare, and then send them only 3 minutes prior. I didn't even have time to look over them prior to logging into Zoom! The lady leading the interview team insulted me by insinuated that I was uncultured because I only know one language. After that, I withdrew my name from consideration. You'd do well to avoid this place, and I wish I would have read the other reviews before applying. My mistake. Don't do what I did and waste your time here!

Kyle Larsen: It is impossible to get a hold of anyone willing to help you I've called and left messages for the past month and have not received a call back or any update. If you're a veteran using your GI Bill good luck the college implies its vet friendly but don't seem very willing to work with you.

c. c.: This is my very first negative review that I have ever done. I would rate it a zero if I could. The schools book store gets me angry. I spent 5+ hours to get a book that they or I misplaced only to be told coldly to rebuy it. I than rebuyed it after debating to just drop this class(my school was going to charge me 427 dollars to drop the class due to scams that have happened(my acedimic advisor talked me into taking this class even though I said I did not want to. He did it by saying I could drop it in the first week) ). I than was told that digital books in the bookstore are down for 48 hours.

Brittney Cummings: Pay attention to what you are enrolling in. They will drop classes and not allow you to complete the degree that you have paid for. I was down to 3 classes that i needed for a degree that i was enrolled in and they dropped the degree all together. I spent a year reaching out to every educator, director, and dean i could manage only to be given false promises over and over. 7k down the drain for no reason. The worst part was is the only reason i enrolled in the degree was because i wanted the 3 classes that they dropped but was told i had to take 4 classes as prerequisites. I took the classes spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours over 2 semesters to be screwed over.

Darin Griffin Jr: I enrolled for one semester and I absolutely hated it. They will do anything to get your money out of your pockets. The bookstore is a complete scam and teachers will have you purchase books you will never touch. There are some decent professors but most of them are crooks too. They talk and teach like a robot and expect you to do your overwhelming assginments. It's a big headache to figure any problem out that you might have and need help with.

Kelly Woods: The bookstore is a scam.

katie parrish: Cold classrooms

hector robles: Muy buen lugar y servicio

Urena F: I wouldn’t not recommend this college to my worthiest enemy. Clueless Advisor want you to take unnecessary classes, top of that I received two F from this school. However, when I m transfer into different college I get A and B . The quality of those “ professors “ is highly questionable knowing how to teach human students, instead they thinking they teaching a robot.

Lindsey Blake: Professionalism does not take place at this school. I had my enrollment messed up more than once and had extreme issues with a couple teachers not ever responding nor grading.

Anthony VanDusen (OMGITSPANCAKES): They taught me soccer, and not basketball. Unacceptable

jacqueline gay: So the finance department or the business office downtown somewhere is the worst they will not speak to me they took my money and I am getting ready to go and post this on every social media that I can today when I get off work. And I'm going to go live

Stovetop Zombie: For your kid's sake, do not send them to this school. I get the appeal of a cheaper community to achieve an associates degree and a bridge to a 4 year institution, but this is not the school for that. Their staff will make graduation and transfer as difficult as possible. If you feel you have to go there, record everything they say. I would say, get everything in email, but you can send dozens of emails to their advisers and they will not respond.At my time there I had an adviser refuse to change my degree, then give me the incorrect courses for that degree, had an adviser tell me to drop several courses because I didn't need it for then degree, then not let me re-enroll in those courses when it turned out I did, was told a Chemistry course transferred to complete my degree both before and after the transfer, then after a misleading email stating "Congratulations you met the requirements to walk at graduation!" and several phone calls telling me my degree was in the mail, was told it didn't transfer and I couldn't graduate.These are only a few issues that occurred with me, and I had several friends and family members experience the same sort of problem.I don't want the same treatment I went through to occur to future students. Please take your education to a place that cares instead.

Cassandra: This college is runs by groups of Moran and crocks thefts. Favoritisms in student is a undercover issue( not to mean for the really hard working student) students whom only show up twice at the entire maths semester course will passes and get an A ) what you looks and how deep is your pockets that’s how they decide who is get an A. Professor will make you punches the $167 dollars of textbooks, without use it though the whole semester. homework are now online everything else are online. Academic Adviser are jokes, asking them the transfer questions she rolls her eyes on you. Better to advise myself. My recommendation is to anyone who like to play dirty (money) and don’t really want to learned, please enroll to this college.

Reneé Rooks: They're always willing to help you get things in order so you can be enrolled and attend
