Mayland Early College High-school consists of students who are determined to succeed. My experience has been nothing but great and all the teachers and professors have been nothing but supportive and helpful. Although, I wish more degree options were offered.

Mayland Early College High School is a really nice school with a fantastic learning environment.

I do wish that the program was easier to schedule- there were several issues with my schedule that had me worried I'd be unable to graduate on time.

As a graduating student at this school I can honestly say this is a great school. The current faculty and staff are so dedicated to the students. If a student is struggling there are peer tutors available to help them. The teachers also have times to help the students. The collaboration with MCC is...
