Now she's a sophomore managing more than $5,000 in weekly revenue and planning her transfer to the University of Maryland or George Washington University. She chose Montgomery College's Macklin Business Institute for the hands-on experience and she says, "It's amazing. It's better than I expected." At MC, students like Nicole build real skills while preparing to transfer to four-year universities. Hands-On Experience from the Start In the Macklin Business Institute, students gain hands-on experience early. Nicole started working at the student-run MBI Café as a freshman. By her sophomore year, she became Accounting Lead -- tracking expenses, leading a team, and making real-time pricing decisions that affect Café customers. "We're doing our best not to raise prices to the point where nobody can afford it," she said. At the MBI Café, the experience is real business decision-making, not a classroom simulation. A Clear Path to Transfer Nicole has applied to the University of Maryland and George Washington University and is waiting to hear back on scholarships before making her final decision. With support from advisors and faculty mentors, she is building a clear path forward. For students looking for an affordable path to a bachelor's degree, Montgomery College's transfer pathway is a concrete start. A Community That Supports Students Students in the Macklin Business Institute build strong connections and alumni regularly return to mentor current students. "I still reach out to students who've graduated, and they're always happy to help", she said. Learn More Want the full story?
