  • Many high schools are requesting dual enrollment registration be completed in advance of the MCC enrollment deadline. Our deadline is the official deadline to complete your registration.

  1. Step 1 – Get admitted to MCC by completing the Student Admissions Application

    • You will be required to submit ID Authentication in this step before you proceed with registration.
    • Upon completion of Step 1, you should have an MCC ID number, an MEID, and password.
    • If you are a returning dual enrollment student, you will need to have your MEID and password in order to proceed to Step 2 and Step 3 below.

  2. Step 2 – Determine prerequisites and/or testing requirements by viewing the Dual Enrollment High School Partners and Classes

    • Click on your high school and then select "see available classes."
    • Identify the course in which you plan to enroll and ensure you meet the admissions requirements listed on the course list.
    • If you do not meet the course prerequisite, you may need to complete an Ed Ready Placement Exam online.
    • If a placement test is required, test scores will be uploaded 24-48 hours after completion of your test. Once scores are uploaded you may continue with the enrollment process.
    • If you attend a Mesa Public School high school, MCC advisors are available to answer questions. All other students may chat with an Early College representative.
