Mill Creek Online Courses

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS...

Do MC Online classes have Zoom/Meet sessions?

Not on a regular basis! These courses are asynchronous, meaning the work is pushed out ahead of time
and you can work on it on your own schedule. Your instructor may occasionally have a Zoom/Meet
session for Review or to share materials, but these are not frequent and you will have advanced notice of
them.

Do I get a parking pass if I register for Online?

In order to be in the Online Courses, students MUST have their own transportation to and from school, but
THEY ARE NOT GUARANTEED A PARKING PASS! If you do not get a parking spot, you will have to
provide your own transportation to school. Since this is an online class, you are not allowed to ride the bus
to school and simply ‘hang out’ until your face-to-face periods.

Can I choose when I take the Online class?

Not exactly - while we used to be able to offer some preference, this year we have so many different
courses being offered that we do not know how the computer will schedule them. While we can guarantee
it will not be 'midday', we don't have a way of preselecting AM/PM. If you are registering for more than one
Online class, though, make sure to mark that on your application, and then the computer should group
those classes together for you: you will have the opportunity to review your schedule during the drop/add
period later in this semester.

Can I take an Online class on top of my 6-class courseload?

No - unfortunately, the Mill Creek Online classes count as a part of your scheduled day, so you cannot
'overload' your schedule. While you are not expected to be physically here for the class, it still counts as a
part of the department schedule and takes up a period/class/teacher.
