The Fall semester o cially kicked o on August 20 at all 10 of Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College’s (MGCCC) locations and centers. If you missed out on
registering for classes, don’t worry! With MGCCC’s new Premiere Experience, students still have the opportunity to sign up for classes through the end of the semester. New classes will begin on September, October, and November 20, making it even more convenient to start your educational journey. We know the rst half of 2020 was hectic, so let us help you create a clearer vision for your future!
The Premiere Experience o ers students a choice of classes in online and hybrid exible (HyFlex) formats so they can customize and self-manage how they receive instruction. Online classes are more dynamic and robust, while HyFlex classes combine face-to-face and online learning in a exible format that permits students to decide, the day of class, whether to attend face to face or virtually. They can choose the best option for them, and it will not be a barrier to attending class or completing coursework, and can prevent excessive absences due to illness.
