CMC classes are taught at various locations throughout the Combat Center (Base) making it easy for our active duty personnel and other students to attend class.

CMC's Base Programs Office is located in Building 1526 on the Base. Services available to students include: assessment testing, financial aid, information, counseling/academic advising, and course registration. Students may access Internet resources through a dedicated computer at the Base Programs Office, provided by CMC's Greenleaf Library. A computer lab is also available!

Full or Closed Classes

When a course reaches its maximum capacity, students cannot be added to the course. Maximum capacities for classroom courses are based on the maximum fire code capacity per each room where the course will be taught. Maximum capacities for online courses are based on faculty contracts and cannot be adjusted. Students who find that desired courses are closed are encouraged to check the Schedule of Classes to select an alternative section of those courses.

Wait Listing

Once a class is full, the next person trying to enroll will become the first person on the wait list and be the first person to be offered a seat in the class if someone drops or becomes an "instructor drop" for non-attendance. Coyote Tracks (student database) tracks who is next in line to be offered the open seat in the class.

In order to be wait listed in a class, you must provide Admissions & Records with an updated email address. If you are the first person on the wait list and a seat becomes available, you will be notified via email, you will then have 24 hours, until the end of the business day, to come into Admissions & Records and register for that class. There are no exceptions to this rule.


Wait List Restrictions: Students are restricted to being either in a section or on one wait list for a section of that course. However, a student can be on a wait list for a Chem class and on a wait list for an English class, as these are not the same course. No multiple wait listing for the same course within different sections is permitted, but they can be wait listed on multiple separate courses.

Students cannot "crash" a class! This is why we have wait listing.

Auditing a course is not permitted.
