Benefits of Becoming an International Partner with MCC
Accredited Institution
Choosing a college with institutional accreditation ensures quality and adds prestige to your students’ degrees. All of MCC’s degree programs are accredited by the Council of Occupational Education (COE), and MCC’s English Language Program is accredited by the Commission of English Language Program Accreditation (CEA).
Career-Focused Outlook
MCC’s curriculum is reviewed by industry professionals and taught by faculty with real-world experience. International students benefit from OPT/CPT opportunities, gaining professional experience with American employers while they study.
Diversity
Each year, over 400 international students from 40+ countries study at MCC. Our staff speaks more than 10 languages and represents diverse cultural backgrounds. We also employ international students on campus to promote career readiness and create a welcoming environment both inside and outside the classroom. No matter your background — recent high school graduate, young professional, or mid-career — you’ll find your community here.
Prime Location
MCC’s two downtown Chicago locations are less than five minutes from public transit.
Students enjoy easy access to restaurants, outdoor seating, and the cultural energy of the city.
With its relatively affordable cost of living, Chicago is home to tens of thousands of international students and offers world-class museums, architecture, sports, and networking opportunities.
