Steps to Enroll

We are excited that you are interested in pursuing your higher education at TMCC!

The TMCC Steps to Enroll were developed to ensure your academic success as you progress through your program. If you're a new student and plan to earn a degree at TMCC, you must complete the required enrollment steps before you can register for classes. When you complete step five (5) at academic advisement, the hold on your account will be removed and you will be able to register for classes.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Required Enrollment Steps (RES)

If you are a new, degree-seeking student or a degree-seeking transfer student with less than 60 semester credits completed at another institution, steps three, four and five are required. If you are not a new, degree-seeking student, steps three, four and five will help to ensure your success at TMCC, but you are not required to complete those steps to enroll.

Take the ACCUPLACER test.
Take TMCC's ACCUPLACER Placement Test to determine which courses are right for you. If you have any questions about the test and testing times, visit the testing center or contact the testing center office.
