Concordia College, Minnesota State University Moorhead, North Dakota State University, North Dakota State College of Science and Minnesota State Community and Technical College students may register for undergraduate courses at other Metro College Alliance institutions under the Metro College Alliance agreement according to the following procedures:

1. Students must observe all registration and academic policies of their home campus, including arrangement for withdrawals, drop/adds, pass/fail options, audits and incomplete grades.  Courses may be applied to resident credit requirements only at the institution where they register and pay tuition with one exception:  NDSU students earning a University Studies degree must complete residency requirements through NDSU courses only.
2. Grades earned through Metro College Alliance are calculated into home campus grade-point averages and posted on home campus academic records.
3. Students with documented disabilities who wish to register for Metro College Alliance courses and who have transportation or other needs should contact the Disabilities Services Office on their home campus.
4. Although semester beginning and ending dates are similar between the Metro College Alliance institutions, please note that the breaks during the semester do not necessarily match.
5. Students taking a Metro College Alliance course to repeat a home campus course previously taken, must indicate this on the form.  Duplication of credits is not permitted.
6. Students enrolling in Metro College Alliance courses that require special fees (lab fees, lessons, supplies, etc.) or differential tuition will be responsible for paying those fees at the provider campus.
7. MSUM, NDSU, NDSCS and MState students seeking registration at CC or CC students seeking enrollment at MSUM, NDSU, NDSCS and MState must be enrolled at full-time status at their home campus.
8. All students must be registered at their home campus before being eligible to enroll in Metro College Alliance coursework.  This enrollment limitation is not applicable during the summer term.
9. The course exchange is limited to one course per student per semester per participating campus, and only if the course is not catalogued or offered on the student’s home campus in a given semester.  Exceptions to the one course/semester limit among campuses are as follows:
   1. Students who request enrollment in a course/lab pairing (lecture and corresponding lab)
