Miami Dade College

I received two degrees from MDC. I graduated in 2005 and 2006. I would recommend MDC to anyone for their first two years of college.

There are several negative postings here and much of it I cannot or will not dispute. However, many of the things they are commenting about you will find at any large institution. Yes, you will wait in LONG lines for admissions or financial aid. And the student interns they hire are rude and clueless.

The important thing is not to lose your focus and remember why you came to Miami Dade in the first place - to get your degree and move on. You will encounter rude and incompetent people everywhere so just keep pushing and GET YOUR DEGREE!

The first degree I received in 2005 was an AS degree. I have already received two fairly high paying job offers in the aviation industry. I already have a great job with a Fortune 100 company so I chose to stick with my current employer and work on more advanced degrees.

Bottom line is a degree is only part of the equation. You still have to be employable and marketable. If you possess these attributes and have the drive to finish what you started, a degree from MDC can only enhance your life and supply you with more opportunities.

Best of luck to all and don't take too much of the negative posts to heart. These are just written by people who will have a negative experience anywhere they go.
