Summer Bridge
The Mitchell Community College Summer Bridge Program is designed to help first year students gain college experience and develop a network of support prior to the beginning of their first year. Summer Bridge serves a diverse community of first year students in a six-week academic program. Students take one course, and meet staff who will support them during the academic year.
