Eastern Iowa Community College District Stats, Info and Facts

Since Scott Community college is a 2 year college, and I am done after this semester, I am ready to move on to my 4 year college. When I first started, I did enjoy being there. The students and staff make you feel welcome.

People are really nice and the staff is always there for help. Even though it is a community college, once you get on campus you feel as if you are on a regular campus with libraries, class rooms, labs, and computer labs and printers. Printing on the printers is free so that is a big plus if you run out of ink or paper at home.

Scott Community College offers a lot of activities for all students. For me, I got involved in Phi Theta Kappa and the Honors Program which brought me a lot of joy. There are opportunities for all students, though, that will allow all students to be a part of something in the college, so that they will enjoy their experience. Again, the teachers have really aided me in this experience, and have helped me to find activities which would be most enjoyable and beneficial for me. I enjoy being a part of a college where the teachers enjoy being a part of their student’s lives.

I am a student athlete here at MCC and I enjoy every minute of the dorm life and coming together with my teammates we are a big family.

At first, I was a skeptic. I took one look as Scott Community college and thought, I don't belong here: it's a glorified high school! Why on earth didn't I pick a prestigious university? Then I began learning. Not only from my professors, but from the students themselves. Community colleges have by far the richest diversity of all learning institutions. They are the ones who opened my eyes to a different world. The more I learned, the more I liked it. SCC may not be as well-known as the University of Nebraska, or as prestigious as an Ivy League school, but it gives a quality education and a rich and complex diversity to life.
