Registration Information

See also: Register for classes now!

If you are a first-time TMCC student you need to be admitted before you can enroll in classes (see steps to enroll). If it has been more than five years since you took a TMCC class, contact the Admissions and Records office to reactivate your file. Continuing students use MyTMCC to enroll in classes. Check dates and deadlines for registration times and fee payment dates.

Adding Classes

You may add classes anytime during the published registration period. Late starting classes may be added using MyTMCC up until the published start date of the class. Written permission of the division offering the class is required to add any class after the registration period or after the start date of the class.

If you add classes or register late, you become immediately responsible for the fees for these classes and should be aware that you may not be eligible for any refunds if you drop from these classes.

Auditing a class

If you wish to enroll in a class for no credit, you may register as an auditor. An auditor pays regular fees and at the discretion of the instructor may be asked to meet all class requirements. If you audit, you do not receive a grade or credit for the course.

Refunds

If you drop a class, the amount of tuition refunded is based on dates of the semester for full-term classes and the number of times the class has met for summer and intensive classes. Refunds are not based on the attendance of a particular student. For more information see the refund policy.

Wait lists

If the class you want is full and a wait list is available, MyTMCC will ask if you want to be added to the wait list. You can only be in one section of a class at a time, including a wait list. If the class becomes available, the department will contact you. It is imperative that your phone number be correct; check with Admissions and Records to verify your phone number.

Once contacted, you will be given a Permit-to-Enroll card and allowed 24 hours to pay for the class, or the seat will be offered to the next eligible student. You can also use MyTMCC to remove your name from a wait list.

Withdrawing from Classes

Students may use MyTMCC to withdraw from classes using the following schedule:

• Until two weeks prior to the official last day of the semester for full-term classes;
• Until one week prior to the official last day of the class for classes of two to 11 weeks in length;
• Until the mid-point (50%) of a class one week or less in length.

Unless the class is officially dropped, the student is responsible for the fees and the instructor may assign a failing grade. It is important for students to verify the accuracy of their enrollment schedules and fees any time a change is made.

Refunds for withdrawing from classes are based on the times the class has met and not on the attendance of a particular student. See the refund policy in the fees, payment and refund section of the course catalog.
