    MMI Class of 2021 - SELF PREP

    We visited the campus last month. The campus is beautiful and well maintained. The staff were welcoming, kind, and spent a lot of time with us. I'm just praying they are on campus because we are in CA where everything is closed and all learning is online. I was reassured when I received an...
