Cross-Enrollment: DMACC

Procedures

1. Pre-Registration Planning:  Students who are interested in cross-enrolling should discuss their intentions with their advisor prior to registering for their Drake classes.
   • Students should ensure that the DMACC class will be acceptable toward their degree program.
   • Students should ensure that the DMACC class is available for cross-enrollment.  Check the list of DMACC classes that are excluded from cross-enrollment.
   • Students should review DMACC's semester start and end dates, deadlines, and policies.  They might not be the same as those at Drake.
   • Cross-enrollment is not guaranteed, so students should have a back-up plan in case they cannot cross-enroll successfully.
2. Registration at Drake:  Before requesting to cross-enroll, students should register at Drake as usual.  Click here for registration times.
3. Submit a Tuition Waiver at the Student Records Office:  Once students are registered full-time at Drake for the semester in which they wish to cross-enroll, they should visit the Student Records Office at 104 Old Main to complete a tuition waiver ("cross-enrollment form").  This waiver does not guarantee the student's cross-enrollment, however it does verify the student's eligibility and must delivered to DMACC to complete the registration process.  The waiver is the student's ticket to cross-enroll.
   • Students should be prepared to list the following information on the tuition waiver: subject, course number, and course reference number (CRN) of the class in which they wish to cross-enroll.
   • DMACC publishes its own schedule of classes on their web site.
4. Be Patient
   • Drake will send the completed tuition waivers to DMACC.  Only waivers that have provided valid subject, course number, and course reference number information will be sent.
   • DMACC will attempt to register each student individually for the course listed on the tuition waiver.  Forms will be processed in the order in which they were submitted to Drake.
   • If the registration is successful, DMACC will email the student with further instructions, including log-in information for their student information system.  Retention of this information is strongly suggested.
   • If the registration is not successful (due to a class that is full, for example), DMACC will email the student with notification of unsuccessful registration, and proceed with the next student's tuition waiver.
   • Students whom DMACC could not accommodate will be allowed to declare an alternate choice without filing additional paperwork by contacting Kevin Moenkhaus (kevin.moenkhaus@drake.edu or 271-3902) in the Student Records Office.  Drake and DMACC cannot guarantee that registration in alternate classes will be successful.
   • DMACC will continue this process until the 75-student limit is reached.
5. Follow-Up:  Students are responsible for establishing and maintaining a connection with DMACC.
   • Students should retain their DMACC ID number, log-in information, email address, etc.
   • Obtain books and materials for the DMACC class.
   • Attend and participate in the DMACC class.
6. End-of-Term Wrap-Up:  After final grades have been submitted, Drake and DMACC will exchange official transcripts for the cross-enrolled students.
   • Cross-enrolled students will not need to submit a request to have their DMACC transcript sent to Drake.  DMACC will do this automatically.
   • Check whether your credits have been posted to your Drake record by viewing your unofficial transcript.

Restrictions

• Only classes that are worth three credits or fewer are available for cross-enrollment at DMACC.
• DMACC will attempt to register cross-enrollment candidates under the registration time frame for their 'New Arts and Science' students.
• Some DMACC courses are not available for cross-enrollment:
  • All courses that are worth more than three credits.
  • Courses in which two Drake students are already cross-enrolled.
  • All health sciences courses.
  • Any course that appears on this page.

Guidelines and Conditions

• The cross-enrollment sign-up procedure (described above) does not guarantee enrollment at DMACC.  It merely validates the students' eligibility for the program.
• Cross-enrollment is available on a first come, first-served basis.  Students must follow the proper procedure to secure cross-enrollment status for each semester that they would like to cross-enroll.
• The rules & requirements, policies, semester start & end dates, and other deadlines set forth by DMACC might be different than those at Drake.  Cross-enrolled students are responsible for knowing and complying with these policies and dates.
• Maximums
  • No more than two Drake students may enroll per section of any eligible course.  If more than two Drake students wish to cross-enroll in the same section, preference will be given according to the order in which the tuition waivers were submitted.
  • 75 Drake students may cross-enroll at DMACC per semester.
  • An eligible student may cross-enroll in only one class at either DMACC or Grand View per semester.
  • Two Drake students will be allowed to cross-enroll in a single section of a course at DMACC.
  • Students may enroll in a maximum of three credits per semester at DMACC.  Only classes that are three credits or fewer are available for cross-enrollment at DMACC.
• Cross-enrollment status will be finalized by DMACC and Drake five business days before the start of DMACC's semester.  No cross-enrollment changes, other than drops, may be made after this point.
