Miami, July 28, 2020 – Registration is ongoing for Miami Dade College’s (MDC) fall term, which begins Sept. 1, featuring in demand programs, an online catalog with nearly 1,000 class sections, stipends and scholarships, and various resources to ensure students’ success, including workshops to facilitate remote learning.

MDC’s eight campuses and outreach centers offer more than 300 distinct degree pathways leading to bachelor’s degrees, associate in arts and science degrees and numerous credit certificates in growing fields.

Students can choose to take fall classes online, in-person or a hybrid of both. Financial aid is available for all formats. Learn if you qualify and apply.

The 2020 fall term will begin Tuesday, Sept. 1 in a remote format through Sept. 27. Starting Sept. 28, if conditions allow it, courses will return to campus in a limited fashion with room capacity limits and strict social distancing guidelines.
