MONROE COMMUNITY COLLEGE, BRIGHTON

Since 1961, Monroe Community College has worked to meet the diverse educational needs of Rochester residents, from personal enrichment to transitioning to a four-year school. Situated right outside of Rochester, New York, the Brighton campus is the college’s main location. Monroe Community College is renowned for its innovative approach, and is continually widening the scope of its academics. Since 2000 the college has made a number of improvements to its campus, including the Public Safety T... raining Facility, the Alice Holloway Young Commons, the Homeland Security Training Institute and the Agriculture and Life Sciences Institute. Partly because of these additions, MCC offers a wide range of academics. In total, there are more than 120 certificate and associate’s degree programs available, both in academic and vocational subjects. Whether you’re looking for career training or seeking to transfer to a four-year institution, MCC has the program to help you reach your goal. The school also provides extensive financial aid to those who qualify, including federal loans and institutional scholarships. Students who aren’t eligible for these programs can apply for a number of external aid programs, such as AmeriCorps, NYS Volunteer Recruitment Service scholarships and VA benefits.More
