| The Macklin Business Institute
Thanks to a generous endowment by Gordon and
Marilyn Macklin, Montgomery College is able to offer outstanding
business transfer students a very special program. After
completing the first year of work in a business transfer curricula,
admitted students enter a sophomore-year program which includes honors
work in economics, statistics and other core business
courses.
There are three phases to the
program:
Mentoring: Each student is assigned a faculty
mentor who provides guidance and share knowledge leading to success in
school. A mentoring relationship with a local corporate executive is also
be created for each student who participates in the Institute
program.
Internships: The program includes an
internship where the student will be offered a real-world view of
corporate business in action.
Transferring: Graduates
of the Macklin Business Institute program receive an A.A. degree and are
encouraged to set their sights on a premier four-year college or
university for transfer and completion of their baccalaureate degree.
Whether the choice is the Smith School of Business at the University of
Maryland , College Park, or any other targeted institution, students
receive assistance in the transfer process and will have a great chance
for success in being accepted to the school of
choice.
Students admitted to the program will be provided
with the use of a laptop computer, and U.S. citizens and eligible
non-citizens may be offered a scholarship that covers up to the full-time,
in-county, cost of tuition and fees (to a maximum of 30 credit hours per
academic year.).
While high school students cannot apply
directly to the Macklin program, they can plan to apply for this
competitive program during their first year of attendance at MC.
Talk with an adviser or counselor about Macklin when choosing first year
classes.
