Minneapolis Community and Technical College
As a public 2-year institution located in the heart of Minnesota’s largest city, Minneapolis Community and Technical College is a part of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system. Thanks to the Minnesota Transfer Curriculum, students who earn an associate degree have all of their credits transfer to any of the state’s 4-year public institutions and most of its private schools. MCTC’s recently renovated Helland Student Center offers a number of study spaces for all pupils and assistance centers for American Indian students and veterans.
