Community Ed provides stress relief with the introduction of "fun" classes for the student. Taking Calc II (for the 8th time)? Balance it out with a yoga class.  Feeling cooped up after coding? Take rock climbing to stretch out those muscles.

Community Ed classes for credit are graded Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory and therefore do not count on your GPA. 

The minimum requirements for passing Community Ed classes include 70% attendance and participation.

They are elective classes. Credit counts towards graduation and financial aid but does not count towards General Ed core requirements.

First, contact the Community Education office, we can give you the contact information for the appropriate instructor. You will then need to obtain an override form from the NMT Registrar's Office (2nd floor of Fidel) and get the instructor's signature. This can be easily done by coming to the instructor's class after gaining the instructor's explicit permission. The form then needs to be returned to the Registrar's office where they will add you to the class. Keep in mind that the deadline for adding classes is a week after classes start.

*Please note - Some classes may allow overrides while others cannot.
