Medgar Evers was not my ideal school, but, I can confidently say that it had treated me well. Now, I can't speak on all things MEC but I will share my experience and what I know. I graduated from MEC about two years ago, but I still find myself reflecting back to my wonderful professors, faculty members, and my fellow scholars who had aided me not only academically, but in other areas of my life as well. That's not to say MEC doesn't have its issues, but what college doesn't? To list a few, management of the financial aid office, lack of updated resources in the library, the food selection at the cafeteria, and class selection. These issues could've been corrected within the last two years, I hope they have at least been discussed by faculty, but they did not stop me from graduating and feeling like I earned my degree. All-in-all, I do not regret going to MEC.
I do wish I took part in more student life activities, but the events I did attend were fun!

I’m a transfer student atteding Medgar Evers College before and during COVID. Both times was not the best experience. Attending in person classes, the level of teaching was so poor I got discouraged; once again dropping out. When I returned, Covid was in full force and I believed online classes would help me to become more successful. Let me just say I got my A’s because of my own self teaching and YouTube lol. I contacted a Professor via Zoom to help understand an assignment; instead of helping me she stared at me as if my questions were stupid. “everything on my syllabus is understandable you shouldn’t be having such a difficult time”. Reaching out to my advisor about switching, she ignored my concerns but took the time to scolded me for not referring to her and that professor by Doctor. Another professor had her 2 children crying and yell in the background during ALL lectures. Another, was always late because she also taught elementary school. Don’t waste you future and money.
My time in Medgar Evers College was challenging, fun and a learning experience all in one. I was attempting the nursing program but there were so many rules and regulations put in place that made me feel like I would never get in. Once you pass the NLN test , you would then have to get through the interview process to see if they would accept you or not , which I felt was very useless because you already pass the test that tested your knowledge. What really got me through my time in Medgar were the helpful staff , especially Ms.Clayton (who wasn’t even my actual advisor but ended up becoming my advisor because the one that was assigned to me did absolutely nothing for me) and the friendships that I formed there and a good support system at home. There were good resources and teaches at the college but the route I took for my future was just to challenging for me but I am thankful for the lesson the school has taught me.
