HIGHER EDUCATION

Education is a cornerstone of the Midlothian community. In April 2012, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board approved the Midlothian Higher Education Center as the ninth Multi-Institutional Training Center (MITC) in Texas. The MITC provides resources to students pursuing post-secondary education.

The MITC is a partnership between Navarro College, Tarleton State University, Texas A&M University-Commerce and University of North Texas at Dallas to work together and offer courses at the Midlothian campus. The Midlothian Higher Education Center campus consists of two buildings totaling over 50,000 square feet.

Students can complete their Associate’s, Bachelor’s or Master’s degrees at the Multi-Institutional Teaching Center. The universities’ partnership has been recognized by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board.

Classes are offered in the evenings and during the day to accommodate both part-time and full-time students. Academic advisors and support staff are available to assist with admission, financial aid/scholarship, veteran services, student success services (tutoring, proctored testing, etc) and degree plans.

For more than 85 years, the Midlothian Chamber of Commerce has been working to improve the local economy. We also promote and assist our Members who support that mission by providing a variety of opportunities throughout the year, such as:
