All activities are free to Starting Point students. Starting Point is more than just studying. Balancing life is an important part of success, and we work to provide opportunities to help you achieve that balance. Every student in Starting Point is encouraged to participate in as many activities as he/she are able.
Cultural Activities Welcome Party - We believe in starting the school year off with a bang! Make your own ice cream sundae, play fun games, meet other great students and start your year on a sweet note. "Celebrate Success" Luncheon - At the end of the school year, we celebrate the successes of our students with a luncheon accompanied by speeches, photos, and great food. This is an opportunities to recognize graduates, transfer students, student leaders, and to celebrate together one last time. Cultural Events - We take advantage of the rich culture in the Twin Cities and believe it is important to experience a bit of it. Join us for a mix of events: at the theater, dining out, bowling, enjoying a museum or even cheering at a sporting event.
Educational Activities College Campus Tours - Each semester, we offer tours to college campuses around the state. Find out what the atmosphere is like on other campuses, how much it costs, and what you need to do to transfer. It's a great break from MCTC and a chance to see how others study! Workshops – Join us for short workshops on a variety of topics. Eat some snacks and learn with other students about transferring, careers, scholarships, leadership and much more.
Leadership Opportunities Leadership Workshops “Everyone can be a leader!” Learn about the leadership principles with fun activities and develop your leadership skills as you meet other students. Starting Point Peer Mentors – Starting Point’s Peer Mentors are successful students who help new students feel comfortable at MCTC and are available to chat. Join the team! Student Leadership Conference (Fall) Join TRiO students from around the Midwest at a regional student leadership conference. Selection is by application, and all expenses are paid for to attend the conference in Illinois.
Outreach Activities Volunteer! - Join other Starting Point students and participate in volunteer opportunities. Take time and give something back to the community.
