SMC offers more program choices than ever. We offer certificate programs that provide you with the specific classes and training you need to complete a shorter course of study. We also provide the quality academic coursework that leads to an associate degree. The associate degree coursework is highly transferable to four-year colleges and universities so that you can benefit from both high quality individualized instruction during your first two years as well as a more affordable tuition rate. Finally, SMC has teamed with Ferris State University, Western Michigan University and Bethel College to offer 6 bachelor's degree programs that allow you to complete a 4-year degree with classes at either our Dowagiac or Niles campus.
