Steps to Register for Classes

Step 1: Prior to Registration

  1. Pay a $50 tuition deposit to the Admissions Office. Mail it in, drop it off, or call (207) 768-9533 with a Visa, Mastercard, or Discover credit card. This deposit needs to be posted to your account one day prior to your registration.
  2. Submit complete and up-to-date immunization records to the Admissions Office.  Mail them in, drop them off, or fax them to (207) 768-9777. If you are transferring within the UMaine System, your records should be on file with the Shared Processing Center. Please send us an email noting this.

If you’ve never activated your account but lost your letter, call the Admissions Office (207) 768-9532. If you’ve activated your account but cannot remember your sign on and password, call Computer Services at (207) 768-9626.
