Today, Monroe Community College hosts a diverse student body enrolled in 83 degree and certification programs.
Of the approximately 41,000 students who take classes through Monroe Community College annually, more than 60 percent are under 25 years old, and more than half are women. The majority of students are enrolled in certificate and degree programs. In addition, the college trains the area's workforce through open enrollment and corporate training programs, serving small to mid-size employers such as Melles Griot and large employers including some of Rochester's largest, such as Kodak and Xerox.
Many students opt to take a "2+2" transfer program, in which they enroll in a program to earn their Associates Degree in two years with the intent of transferring to a college or university — primarily the University of Rochester, Rochester Institute of Technology, Saint John Fisher College, Roberts Wesleyan College, SUNY Geneseo, SUNY Brockport, Nazareth College, or the Eastman School of Music — to complete a Bachelor's degree.
