Wolf Pack Welcome | MCC-Penn Valley
After you enroll in classes, new students are expected to attend a Wolf Pack Welcome. This is offered the week before classes begin and is critical for new students to get a strong start at MCC. In fact, we find that students who attend earn a higher GPA than those who don't. Students will learn what it takes to be successful inside the classroom and what kind of enrichment opportunities are available outside the classroom. This will be a fun-filled, and highly informative session designed to help new students successfully transition to college life at MCC. Need to reschedule or have questions about Wolf Pack Welcome?
