MWCC is recognized as a state and national model for its wrap-around support services for student veterans, available through its Center for Excellence for Veteran Student Success.<\/p>\n<p>Mount Wachusett Community College is encouraging ITT students to meet with an admissions counselor at the Gardner campus, as credits may be earned for college-level learning through alternative educational experiences such as ITT.\u00a0MWCC offers more than 70 academic degree and certificate programs as well as advanced manufacturing and workforce training options.<\/p>\n<p>More information about this process can be found in the admissions office, where representatives are committed to assisting ITT students with the enrollment process at Mount Wachusett Community College.\u00a0 For more information, contact Admissions at 978-630-9110 or <a href=\"mailto:admissions@mwcc.mass.edu\">admissions@mwcc.mass.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For general inquiries and help with federal student loans, please reach out to the Massachusetts Attorney General\u2019s Office at 1-888-830-6277.
