2018-2019 Catalog

Online courses

Online courses are available to students at anytime from anywhere via the Internet using a standard Web browser, which allows students to balance studies with their schedule. Online courses have specific due dates for assignments, but not specific synchronous meeting times. Online courses are equivalent to on-campus courses and maintain the same academic standard in content, assignments, and credit. Every course is managed by a qualified MCC instructor who provides regular and substantive interaction with students. Instructors prompt discussion, help with assignments, answer questions, and grade student work.

Online courses are designed by MCC faculty following the nationally recognized quality assurance and continuous improvement approach Quality Matters (QM).

Students who are not F-1 students and whose primary language is not English need to take the Accuplacer assessment to determine course placement. Call 531-622-2400 to get started. The TOEFL is not required. There are federal regulations specific to F-1 students and online classes. Contact International Student Services at 531-622-2281 or iss@mccneb.edu for guidelines.
