For the past year in Montgomery college, I found it a very positive environment in terms on academics and work ethics. There are so many available resources on campus and online that include tutors, professors, books/textbooks, databases and more. The staff and everyone in Montgomery college are amazing and so helpful that all give motivation to the students there. There are so many ways you can be active on campus life such as, sports, volunteer service, clubs and even jobs! If you essentially want to finish your degree in almost any major in two years and a guarantee transfer to a Maryland institute, I definitely recommend Montgomery college. It is an overall excellent community college with very affordable tuition costs and I highly recommend it to high school students that might be concerned for financial problems when considering to enter a university/college.

I've had a great experience with Montgomery College! The campus is great, filled with students from all walks of life! It is an extremely diverse schools, in all aspects - including race-wise, religion-wise, gender-wise, and more. The professors are knowledgeable, understanding, and willing to help their students grow and succeed.
Overall, I've had a great experience with Montgomery College and would highly recommend anyone to attend!
Montgomery College is a great community college! Registration and signing up for classes is fairly simple. Most professors really care about what they're doing and are great teachers, and it's super affordable for MoCo residents. The only thing I would change about the school - advisors here are not the best and it seems like all the office workers really could care less.
