Orientation Registration

You will choose and register for your first semester of classes at an orientation session. Advisors and counselors will be there to help you. You will also get useful information about your program and being a student here.

If you are a transfer student, you may fulfill the orientation requirement in a different way. See apply as a transfer student.

There are also special orientation sessions for international students, Post Secondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) students and Power of You students. Your letter of acceptance to the college will have details about special orientation sessions.

What happens at orientation

You start in a general session about being an MCTC student. You will then break into a small group by program. You will receive a course plan and information for your program of study.

You then go to the computer lab to register for the courses. There will be an advisor in the lab to answer questions about using the registration system or about which classes to take based on your test results.

Sign up for orientation

Sign up as soon as you have received a letter of acceptance and taken the placement tests. An early orientation session gives you wider choices of classes and times. You can sign up in the Testing Center right after you take your placement tests or sign up online.

Bring to orientation
