MCC's New Student Orientation isn't just for students!
Parents are welcome (and recommended) to attend as well.
If you are planning to attend the New Student Orientation program with your son or daughter, we've scheduled some activities for you as well! Parents will attend a special question & answers session with the college's Vice Presidents as well as optional workshops about financial aid and/or disability services. An informal faculty panel session will conclude the parents track for the day. Afterwards, you are welcome to rejoin your son or daughter for lunch.
Please note that there are no childcare services available on campus, so please make alternative arrangements.
