Mid Michigan Community College, Harrison

What Mid Michigan Community College, Harrison does

Mid Michigan College is a public community college founded in 1965 and headquartered at 1375 S. Clare Ave. in Harrison, Michigan, with a secondary campus at 2600 S. Summerton Rd. in Mt. Pleasant. Governed by a Board of Trustees elected from the Beaverton, Clare, Farwell, Gladwin, Harrison, and Mt. Pleasant school districts (with Mt. Pleasant added by voter approval in May 2021), the college serves mid-Michigan's Clare, Gladwin, and Isabella counties. It is one of Michigan's established two-campus community colleges, operating across 60 years of continuous service as of March 2025.

The college delivers associate degrees, training credentials, certificates, and industry-recognized certifications through four primary program channels: (1) traditional two-year degree and transfer pathways with articulation agreements to four-year universities including Northwood University, Alma College, and Central Michigan University; (2) workforce and career education programs including an HVAC/Refrigeration (HRA) program reporting 100% internship and job placement; (3) dual and concurrent enrollment for high school students; and (4) short-term training for accelerated workforce entry. Student support services include TRIO Student Support Services for first-generation, low-income, and disabled students, plus the Career Center, Library and Learning Services, and a dedicated mentoring function ("Mid Mentors"). The digital delivery layer comprises a Moodle-based learning management system, a Self-Service student portal for registration and records, Google Workspace, and a Help Desk ticketing system, with WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility compliance under Title II of the ADA.

Revenue mechanics draw from three streams: tuition and fees (with multiple tuition-free pathways under the Community College Guarantee for in-district students and Michigan Reconnect for adult learners 25+); State of Michigan funding and program-specific grants (notably a $2M nursing program grant, Achieving the Dream, MDOC tuition assistance, and Sixty By 30 grants); and private philanthropy channeled through the Mid Michigan College Foundation (recent disclosed gifts include Morey Foundation $2.125M, Isabella Bank $500K, Strosacker Foundation $100K, Members First Credit Union $75K, plus Consumers Energy Foundation and community foundation support). The customer base is heavily diversified across four segments — recent high school graduates (primary), adult learners 25+ (primary), workforce development clients, and K-12 dual-enrolled students — with no single student, employer, or funder representing a material concentration of revenue.
