The Metropolitan Community College district is fully accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. Because you won't attend regular lectures in a classroom, to succeed in Internet courses you must be self-motivated, be able to work independently, and be disciplined enough to schedule your time efficiently.
Most instructors also require that student work be submitted via e-mail.
As soon as you enroll, send your e-mail address to the instructor listed in the course description. Some courses may require attendance at a location for one or more meetings, so check the course requirements carefully. Textbooks and other materials can be purchased at a campus bookstore, by mail, or from a local franchise bookstore. Class sizes are limited. Take our Self-Evaluation Quiz to help you decide if Distance Ed is a good option for you.
