“If it wasn’t for the Hutchinson Center, I would never have considered going back to college. It is that simple.  I have wanted to earn a degree for as long as I can remember.  But life doesn’t always go the way you plan.  I married, had two wonderful sons and life continued.  I had pretty much put the idea of a degree on the back-burner until they began construction of the Hutchinson Center. Then it all became possible. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made.  The Hutchinson Center is the place to go for your education.  The classes are varied in content and schedule, the faculty is exceptional, and the Center staff knows what it is like to have life get in the way.  They go out of their way to assist the student to make sure the student’s educational experience is both beneficial and enjoyable.” 


These are the thoughts and words of one of the Hutchinson Center students, Katherine Lindelof, a University of Maine Anthropology major who is currently entering her junior year.


Sound like you or someone you know?  The University of Maine Hutchinson Center has been helping students begin college as well as complete college degrees, both undergraduate and graduate degrees.  You can take one course or a full load, or anything in between.  You can begin as a non-degree student or be matriculated in a degree program.  There are many choices and options at the Hutchinson Center in Belfast. The Hutchinson Center is the Midcoast branch of the Orono campus and was opened in 2000.  In addition to offering college degrees and courses, the Hutchinson Center provides professional development in many areas, including nonprofit management, leadership and many other areas. 

Yes, you and many others like you are making the decision for college.  You can begin today. 

Please contact the Hutchinson Center for an appointment with an academic advisor to discuss degree options, career counseling, financial aid and scholarships.  Contact the Hutchinson Center at 338-8000, toll free 800-753-9044.
