MCC Enrollment Growth Highest In Illinois

McHenry County College led the state in student enrollment growth from last spring to this spring, according to college officials Mondday. The current headcount stands at 7,381, an increase of 28.4 percent from last spring’s headcount of 5,749, according to figures reported to the state.

This growth continues an upward trend from last fall reflecting the continued economic downturn and a national trend of community college enrollment growth. “We have seen incredible growth in enrollment due, in part, to the economy, but even more so because of the high quality educational opportunities we offer here at MCC, said Tony Miksa, vice president of Academic and Student Affairs.

Summer registration begins today and the College has implemented a new priority registration process to ensure currently enrolled students who are nearest to degree completion can enroll in the courses they need to graduate. Details are at: http://www.mchenry.edu/currentstudents/index.asp
