Montgomery County Community College

The College's traditional student is anything but traditional. Our students are as diverse as the communities we serve with nearly 20 percent of our student body comprised of ethnic and racial minorities, nearly 60 percent are female, and the average age of credit students being 27.

With 57 percent* of our students attending the College part-time and of those, 32 percent* attending during the evening, we recognize that the ever-changing demands of the market require us to be able to meet the evolving needs of our local workforce. In that same vein, we also seek to provide an affordable, valuable start to a four-year degree through our growing number of transfer programs. As we strive to prepare our students to enter or re-enter either the workforce or an advanced degree program, our goal is to be a deep and valuable resource for the local community's growth and development. Because 93 percent* of credit students at the Central Campus and 81 percent * of West Campus Credit students are from Montgomery County, with the remaining 10 percent* from neighboring counties in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware, the success of our students in and beyond their programs directly impacts the success of our local economy.
