Standard Registration Periods
CMC's academic year is three semesters (fall, spring, summer). Standard registration periods pertain to credit courses that start the first week of the semester (standard) and courses that start after the first week (non-standard). Click on the links below for more information.
Early Registration
Students must meet campus academic advising requirements and have a zero balance on their account. Payment is deferred to a later date and not due at the time of early registration.
An invoice will be mailed to the student. Fax-in, in-person, and phone-in registration methods are available during this period.
Early registration is offered for prior to fall and spring semesters only. No early registration period is offered for summer semester.
Registration
All methods of registration (online, in-person, or by mail) are available for students to use.
Register before your credit class starts!

Class Attendance Policy
NOTE: A no-show for a face-to-face class is defined as lack of “attendance” where attendance is defined as one of the following:
- Physical class attendance where there is direct interaction between instructor and student
- Submission of an academic assignment
- Examination, interactive tutorial, or computer-assisted instruction
- Study group assigned by school
- Participation in on-line discussion about academic matters
- Documented initiation of contact with instructor to ask question about academic subject
NOTE: A no-show for an online class is a student who has not:
- Completed the introductory assignment(s) by the deadline
“No-Show” Reporting: If the student has not “attended” (per language above), the student will be reported as a no-show on Wednesday, January 23. Class reinstatement cannot occur after this point without significant documented extenuating circumstances.
“No-Show” Reporting and Financial Aid: If a student is dropped from a course (or courses) for non-attendance, the resultant loss in credit hours may cause a reduction and/or cancellation of his/her financial aid award. Like class reinstatement, financial aid awards can only be reinstated with documented extreme extenuating circumstances. Reinstatement in class does not guarantee financial aid reinstatement.
