Middlesex Community College

Links Program participants are Middlesex Community College students who benefit from the program's support.

Links provides:

• college tuition and fees for Links classes
• textbooks for Links classes
• supplies needed for Links classes (i.e. binders, paper, folders, calculators, etc.)
• academic and career advising from the Program Coordinator
• small, cohort classes with supportive faculty

Motivated students who have a high school credential (diploma, HiSET, or GED) and are available to commit to daytime classes are welcome to apply.  Priority is given to students who previously attended the Adult Learning Center at Middlesex Community College or other Adult Basic Education Programs but other students may inquire. 

Links classes are typically held during the day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and some Fridays during the Fall Semester (Sept-Dec) and the Spring Semester (Jan-May).

Classes are generally offered in a hybrid format: one day online and one day on either the Bedford Campus and the Lowell Campus of Middlesex Community College. Location is dependent on professor availability each semester.
