MCC Has Highest Graduation Rate

By Drew Adams

Murray, KY – Madisonville Community College has topped the list of graduation rates among Kentucky's public two year universities in a new national study from the non-profit Complete College America. The study focused on data from a three year period and found 43% of MCC students graduate with a two year degree within three years of enrollment. The Madisonville Messenger reports school officials attribute much of the school's success to the first semester experience, an orientation program which helps the students adjust to college life.
