Minneapolis Community and Technical College is a public community college in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is part of the Minnesota State system and serves students in the Twin Cities area and beyond. The college offers associate degrees, diplomas, and certificates in a city-campus setting.

The college provides career-focused technical programs as well as transfer-oriented liberal arts and general education coursework. Its academic offerings span areas such as health sciences, business, information technology, public safety, and the arts. As a community college, it is designed to support both immediate workforce preparation and transfer to four-year institutions.

For CLEP and transfer-credit purposes, Minneapolis Community and Technical College is a public two-year institution that evaluates prior learning and outside coursework through established college policies. Students seeking credit by exam or transfer credit should consult the college's official transfer and records guidance, since acceptance depends on the specific exam, course, score, and program requirements. The college's role in the Minnesota State system also means many students use it as a starting point for later transfer.

Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on MCTC's current policies. Not every alternative credit source is automatically accepted, so verify eligibility before completing a course or exam.

Approved credits may count toward general education, major requirements, electives, or other degree requirements depending on the evaluation. Minneapolis Community and Technical College transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.
