Are you a senior citizen who wants to try painting, learn a foreign language, or study
engine repair? We admire your dedication to lifelong learning and want you to know
that auditing a course at MCC may be for you!
Auditing a course means taking a class, but not getting graded or earning credit for
it. While you don’t have to take any exams when auditing a course, you’re still expected
to attend class, participate, and do the readings. That means even these “grade-free”
classes require a commitment.
Registration for the Fall 2026 semester will open on August 26, 2026.
Please use the Senior Audit Registration Form to register.
Auditing for Senior Citizens
If you are a senior citizen, classes at MCC are open for you to audit tuition-free, as long as there is an available seat. There is a $75 parking fee for students who will be on campus.
To audit classes as a senior citizen, you must:
Check out our class schedule for Fall 2026 course availability.
To earn a class grade and course credit, register through the traditional registration process. Taking classes with credit means you’ll receive a tuition bill, which should be paid on time to guarantee your seat in the class.
Print and fill out the Audit Course Form. Please return to the Registration and Records Office (Building 6, Room 203, Brighton Campus) by the following deadlines.
