Student Academic/Financial Planning
I Apply for financial aid by filling out the FAFSA.
You may qualify for a grant or a low interest
student loan.
I Sign up for a Payment Plan to spread your
payments out and reduce your upfront costs.
I Ask your employer if they will pay for a course - or
reimburse you once you pass the course.

Registration
Did you know that MCC has a Course Repeat Policy?
If you repeat a course at MCC the following rules apply:
· A student will be permitted a maximum of three attempts for any one course. Attempts include currently enrolled
courses, courses with a final grade awarded, transferred coursework, withdrawals, incompletes, an in-progress grade that
has converted to an "F", and courses repeated in an effort to earn higher grades.
· A student may attempt a course two times without intervention
· A student may attempt a course a third time, once he/she has met with the appropriate academic dean for consultation/
advising and has received written permission to enroll. Please consult the course repeat policy for relevant deadlines.
Please see your advisor to discuss the effect withdrawing or repeating a course may have on your academic career and financial eligibility.
Call 1.800.818.3434 to schedule an appointment or use the "My Advisor" link by logging into the MCC student portal.
