申请点评
- Student Body: The student body is very diverse. It is also very "clique" oriented. There is usually a divide between students who are going for careers and students who are going to get gen-eds out of the way. I've noticed a lot of students are attending MVCC as returning students who haven't received formal education in many years, students who did not get accepted into four-year institutions, and students who are there to save money.
- Academic Experience: I am pursuing an Associate's in Applied Science degree and the classes needed are good.
- Academic Experience: This is and experience... I feel really good to be among guys younger than myself..my workload is not heavy this is my first semester.the facilities are awesome.
- Academic Experience: Most of the professors at Moraine are very friendy and concered about each indivduals success in class. They are very personable and give a reasonable amout of work.
- Campus Resources: THere are alot of resources around campus. There are career program brochures everywhere, there are alot of student services as well.
- Campus Resources: The computer labs are neat and easy to use. There is wireless access for the students and non-students.
- Campus Resources: The library has many amenities that provide students with many resources needed to succeed like: computer labs, internet access and printers. The Wifi is always accessible from my personal computer (that I bring for convenience).
- Campus Resources: I haven't been in the new athletic center, but I have heard positive reviews. I was unaware the school had sports teams until halfway through my first semester. I hear of campus activities, but my peers and I do not attend. The librarians are very nice and very helpful.
- Campus Resources: The wi-fi signal is aweful, the computer lab is good but not enough computers for students. You have to wait a lot to use a computer. Printing on campus is annoying. There aren't enough printers.*(4)
