MCC Advising
Academic advisement plays an important role in MCC's total educational program. The primary responsibility of an advisor is to guide students in making wise selections of course offerings with careful attention to institutional policies and degree requirements. Effective advising will also assist students in identifying internal and external resources that will have a positive impact on their MCC experience.
Advisors are assigned to all students based upon planned programs of study. However, students who are undecided, who are taking basic courses to enhance skills, or who are taking courses for personal enrichment or skill development are also assigned an advisor.
If a prospective student would like a campus tour or to learn more about MCC programs, contact the Office of Recruiting at 601.483.8241 or recruiting@meridiancc.edu.
