Admissions & Registration
How to Register
Students must apply for admission prior to registration. New students planning to attend classes at North Platte Community College or at any of the Community Campus locations should make an appointment with Advising by calling 800-658-4308 (ext. 3701) or 308-535-3701, or by emailing the Advising office at advising@mpcc.edu. New students planning to attend classes at McCook Community College should call 800-658-4348 (ext. 8110) or 308-345-8110. Returning students may register via CampusWeb. All certificate, diploma, or degree-seeking students are encouraged to work closely with an advisor when planning each term’s registration.

Change of Registration
Drop/Add Classes
Students may drop or add classes online (via CampusWeb) until 7:00 a.m. on the date a semester/term begins. Once the term begins, all registration changes must be authorized by faculty via signature on a registration change form or via e-mail. Courses dropped during the add/drop period will not appear on your academic transcripts. Refer to “Important Course Deadlines” published on CampusWeb’s home page for each course section’s add/drop deadline.
Withdrawing From Classes
A class dropped after the add/drop deadline is called a “withdrawal.” A grade of “W” will appear on the transcript. Students must formally withdraw from any course they do not intend to complete via a registration/registration change form that includes instructor and advisor approval. An “F” (failing) grade may be awarded when students stop attending without formally withdrawing. Refer to “Important Course Deadlines” published on CampusWeb’s home page for each course section’s withdrawal deadline.
Late Registration
Exceptions to deadlines for adding courses occur only through an approved appeal. The Add/Drop, Withdrawal, and Billing Appeal process instructions may be found on the MPCC website. (Go to the Current Students tab at the top of the page and then click on the Add/Drop, Withdrawal, and Billing Appeal Process link.)
Leave of Absence
Students who find it necessary to be away from college during the progress of any semester should apply to the Dean of Student Life for a Leave of Absence. A leave accounts for absences from class, but it does not relieve the student from completing all coursework. Approval of the application for leave will depend in large part upon the student’s academic record.
Tuition and Fees
The tuition, fees, and charges in this section are for the current academic year. The tuition and fee rates are set by the MPCC Board of Governors. The MPCC Board of Governors reserves the right to change tuition, fees, and refunds. Tuition and fees are expected to be paid prior to the beginning of class. MPCC accepts most major credit cards. No person may enroll in classes for the succeeding semester until all tuition, fees, or other financial obligations to the college have been paid.
