Transient Student Visiting MTC from Another College

Get Started Here:

1. Apply for Admission 

Apply for admission to Midlands Technical College. If you have attended MTC within the last three semesters, you do not need to reapply and you may skip to step #3.

2. Verify Lawful Presence 

All students must verify their lawful presence by submitting the MTC Verification of Lawful Presence Form along with required documentation (listed on form). The form and documentation must be received before registering for classes. Send electronic versions to transient@midlandstech.edu.

3. Submit Your Transient Student Form 

This form can be obtained by meeting with your academic advisor at the institution you presently attend. Please include the complete section number, if possible, of the class for which you wish to register (Example: ENG 102 B01). This information can be found using our course search in the sidebar of this page. This form must be submitted before you are eligible to register for class.

Please Note: Visiting students are responsible for determining if the courses taken at Midlands Technical College will transfer to their current college or university. 

You may submit your form in one of the following ways:

MAIL it to:
Midlands Technical College
Office of Admissions
P.O. Box 2408
Columbia, SC 29202
EMAIL: transient@midlandstech.edu

4. Register for Classes  

Once you have submitted the required forms and have been admitted, you may call and register for courses during designated registration periods. 

CALL 803.738.8324, and a college representative will gladly assist you.

5. Pay Tuition and Fees 

Pay tuition and fees by the deadline. Check with your home institution for financial aid assistance information concerning attending another college or university.

Pay online through your MyMTC account.
This account also allows you to view your class schedule, grades, and more. You can access this information by visiting MyMTC.

6. Request Transcript 

At the end of the semester, you must request an official MTC transcript to be sent to your home institution.

Please Note:
Courses offered by the Science Department during the Summer semester meet only in the 10-Week Semester.

Our lab courses are structured so that the lab and lecture portion must be taken together as one class.
