Make sure you check registration dates for each semester. Visiting students can register for classes starting the same time as new students.
 

When to Register

What is a StarID Account?

A StarID account lets you register for open public courses at any college and university within the Minnesota State system. Going forward, your StarID will be used to register for classes, check your grades, pay bills, and many more features throughout your time as a Minnesota State student.

What if my StarID Password doesn’t work?

If you don’t remember your password or your password has expired, you may reset your password by following the “Reset Password” link at .

Do I have to take the college placement test as a visiting student?

Visiting students must meet the course prerequisites and placement requirements. Many visiting students are exempt (and don't have to take a placement test) based on previous completed college level coursework. Check the course page to find out if you meet the requirements. If you meet the requirements, submit your unofficial transcript with your registration form to registration@sctcc.edu. If you haven't met them, you can take the Accuplacer placement test at ˮ����. 

Can I receive Financial Aid?

Non-degree-seeking students are not eligible for financial aid from ˮ����. To be eligible for financial aid, you must be seeking an award (degree, diploma, some certificates). If you are visiting us from another college/university, talk to your home institution about financial aid.

How do I know if the course is equivalent to the course I need?

To find out if ˮ���� offers an equivalent course to the one you need at another Minnesota State college or university, you will need to find the course in your home institution's Course Schedules. Click on the “Equivalent” button. If ˮ���� has an equivalent course you will see it in the list.

How do I pay for my class?

When a visiting student registers for the course, they are financially responsible for the course. Students can view and pay their bill in eServices or can contact the Financial Services Office for payment options at 320-308-5946. 

How do I get my books?

Visit the ˮ���� Bookstore.

Will I need to get a St. Cloud Technical & Community College email?

The College will provide you with an ˮ���� email account within 24 hours of registering for a class. Email is the college's official form of communication. You should begin checking your email regularly for important updates including payment due dates and reminders. You will need your StarID and password to access your email the first time.

The format for your email is: username: STARID@go.minnstate.edu password: is your StarID password.

Please contact the IT Help Desk at 320-308-6445 for assistance.

Do I need a Parking Permit?

Not if you are taking an online course.

You will need a parking permit if you are in a face-to-face class. Your parking permit is already included with your tuition, so there is no additional charge. Register your vehicle online.  Once you have registered your vehicle, you can pick your permit up at the Financial Services Office.

Add/Drop/Withdraw Policy
