Testing may be waived for students who can be placed in the appropriate courses by documenting previous college credit. If special credit students select majors, applicable credits earned as special credit students will be applied toward their course requirements for graduation. Special credit students are not automatically enrolled as auditing a course. Registration Martin Community College operates on the semester system. All students must officially register and pay fees during the pre-registration period or registration period scheduled at the beginning of each semester.
Students are eligible to register after their files are complete with the necessary admission data.
However, it will be necessary for new students, other than special credit students, to meet all admission requirements before registering for their second semester of enrollment. Pre-registration and registration dates are listed in the Academic Calendar. Any changes in schedule involving entrance into classes must be made or adjusted during the first five school days of the semester. Students wishing to drop classes or withdraw from school should complete the official forms by the end of the eleventh week of the semester, or its equivalent during an abbreviated session, as published in the Academic Calendar in order that they not receive a grade of F for the course or courses. Students who are compelled to withdraw due to extenuating circumstances after the eleventh-week deadline may request a hearing to see if their case merits special consideration.
