Registration Requirements and Procedures
Registration procedures are coordinated through the registrar’s office. Registration is completed online, and students are responsible for registering for any academic semester in which they want to enroll. This procedure includes completing requests for information, selecting courses, and paying tuition.
Preparing for Registration
Returning students must ensure that all obligations have been met. These include financial accounts, library fines, housing/dorm rent or fees, and Practical Missions responsibilities remaining from the previous semester.
Registration for Classes
Currently enrolled and new students may register for the following semester during the designated registration period. Degree Audit Worksheets, schedules, and registration instructions are available on the College website, https://www.midamericacollege.com/registrar/.
New Student Orientation
New Student Orientation is held on-campus before the start of each semester for all new students. It is designed to give an informative and enlightening overview of life at Mid-America. Students are introduced to the different departments of the College and their designated functions. Contact the Student Life office for information concerning dates and times of New Student Orientation.
Late Registration Fee
Late registration will result in an additional fee of $100.00. Payment of tuition is considered part of registration and must be made upon registration.
Student Identification Cards
Student identification cards are produced for on-campus students (excluding audit students) during orientation. Student identification cards are used to access the building and various areas within the building; these cards also function as a library card.
Adding and Dropping Courses after Registration
Before the first day of class, courses may be added and dropped by contacting the registrar. No additional fee is assessed for adding and dropping courses before the first day of class. Tuition is non-refundable after classes have begun.
After registration ends, courses may be added and dropped through the registrar only by email. Courses may not be added after the fourth class session of any semester. Courses must be dropped before the twelfth class session of the semester in order to be recorded as WP (Withdraw Passing) on the student’s official transcript and will not be factored into the student’s GPA. Any course dropped after the twelfth class session will be recorded as WF (Withdraw Failure) on the student’s transcript and will be factored into the student’s GPA as a 0.00. The GPA points may be replaced by a higher grade if the student retakes the course. In emergency cases beyond the student’s control, the faculty may be petitioned to grant an exception.
