Welcome to the MCC Wolf Pack; your pathway to success
Attend a Wolf Pack Welcome Session
After you enroll in classes, new students are expected to attend a Wolf Pack Welcome. This event is held before fall and spring classes begin. It is a critical step toward getting a strong start at MCC.
Why it matters
Attending Wolf Pack Welcome isn’t just an expectation - it's one of the most important actions you can take to set yourself up for success. Students who attend orientation consistently earn higher GPAs than those who don’t, and they report feeling more prepared, confident and connected during their first semester.
During this session, you will:
- Learn what it takes to succeed in your courses, including essential academic expectations and tips for managing your time.
- Explore enrichment opportunities outside the classroom such as student clubs, leadership programs and campus events.
- Connect with instructors, staff and fellow students before classes begin.
- Gain familiarity with your campus, including where to find key offices, student resources and support services.
- Reduce first-week stress by knowing exactly what to expect on day one.
- Build a sense of belonging, a major factor in college persistence and overall wellbeing.
Wolf Pack Welcome is a fun, interactive and highly informative session designed to help new students successfully transition to college life at MCC.
Additional benefits
Students will also have the opportunity to:
- Purchase textbooks
- Obtain an MCC student ID
- Pick up a parking pass (if needed)
The estimated time to complete this session is approximately 2.5 hours.
