Montgomery County Community College partnership

Montgomery County Community College partnership

Despite the importance of getting a degree, many adults delay or avoid the decision due to the difficulty of finding time to attend classes while juggling a family and a career. Alvernia University is working to make that achievement more possible in a demanding world.


Alvernia has partnered with Montgomery County Community College (MCCC) to expand advanced-degree opportunities for students, employees and community members. The collaboration provides affordable tuition, an accelerated format, convenient scheduling and a supportive environment for all students, especially working adults from the Montgomery County community. The programs are available for full-time and part-time students.


Alvernia offers numerous online accelerated bachelor's and master's degrees. MCCC alumni and employees are eligible for a 20% tuition discount on eligible programs if they meet all admissions requirements. Contact Alvernia's knowledgeable admissions coordinators for more information at gradandadult@alvernia.edu, 610-796-5187 or fill out the form below:
