What I like most about the 2 + 2 program:

• “It allowed me to take classes at nights and weekends, so I can continue to work full-time.”
• “There’s a good mix of age groups and experiences.”
•  “The transition from MCC to USF was very smooth. Counselors were available and helpful.”
• “The staff has been great. They all really want me to succeed in the career I’m heading toward. They want me to be well-prepared for the field I’ve chosen.”
• “The south county campus is only six miles from my house.”
