CLASS SCHEDULE

WAIT LIST
If a class is closed, students can add their names to the section’s wait list before
the class begins. Students will be notified by email of their status. It is recommended
that students monitor their wait list regularly to check on the current class status.
ADDING A CLOSED CLASS... ADD CODES
To add a class once it begins,you must attend the first class meeting (whether you are wait listed or not). If there are seats available, the instructor will assign students Add Codes to add the class. The Add Code is a four digit number that gives the student authorization to add the class via our on-line registration system—MC Portal/MyWebServices. The Add Codes are valid through the first two weeks of the semester or a shorter period if a short-term course.
