We’ve created this page to assist newly accepted students with the registration process for the upcoming semester. While we highly recommend that you attend an on-campus group session, we do understand that you may not be able to attend a group session. Because of the amount of information provided during group advising sessions, this website may not address all of your questions and concerns. You are responsible for the decisions you make based on this information, so if this website does not meet your needs, please attend an on-campus group session. New Student Advising & Registration group sessions are held prior to both fall and spring semesters. New Student Advising & Registration typically begins late November for students accepted to a spring semester, and mid-May for students accepted to a fall semester. Sessions are offered at both the South Portland and Bath campuses. For a more in-depth orientation to the college, the group advising sessions held Tuesdays and Thursdays at the South Portland campus now combine New Student Orientation with New Student Advising & Registration! Below is an estimated activity time-line.
8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. Tuesday/Thursday Session on SMCC’s South Portland Campus 10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. – Orientation 12:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. – Advising & Registration All Other Sessions: Advising & Registration
During Advising & Registration you will learn how to create a course schedule that meets your needs, and how to use our portal (not only to register for classes, but also to drop courses, access your grades, and more), about your responsibilities as a student, and SMCC’s important registration policies. To schedule a session at either our South Portland or Bath campus, please visit our online reservation system. Important ConsiderationsIf you have completed college coursework at another institution and would like to have your courses reviewed for transfer credit, please complete the online Transcript Evaluation Request Form. This is for accepted students ONLY. Students who are not accepted will not receive a transcript review. For details on how to apply, please visit Admissions. Providing we have your official transcript(s) on file, a transfer credit evaluation will be completed by the end of the add/drop period (typically the first week of classes) of the semester for which you have been accepted. If you would like your transfer credits evaluated sooner, you will need to sign up for and attend an on-campus group advising session. Part of our preparation for these sessions is to evaluate transfer coursework.
Once we have completed your transfer credit evaluation, you will find up to date information on MySMCC. You will learn how to access your information on the MySMCC as you review this website.
