Schedule of Classes
Southwestern Michigan College offers two types of course offerings: traditional and continuing education. The online schedule of classes, linked on the right, are available to the general public, prospective students and other interested parties.
Traditional Course Offerings
The schedule of classes linked under Traditional Course Offerings on the right provides detailed information for students who are degree-seeking, want to continue their education or just take a course. The schedule of classes is a valuable tool for students as they develop their course schedules prior to advising and registration. The class schedule listing page includes instructor e-mail links, section notes, meeting times and course enrollment information.
The search button on the right will take you to the Class Schedule Search page where you can select the appropriate term using the "Search by Term" drop-down. Terms which are not open for registration have a "view only" notation.
Once you click "submit" you will be taken to the Class Schedule Search form. You are now ready to search for courses.
Continuing Education Course Offerings
Continuing education courses were developed for individuals who have completed their degree or certification who want to keep abreast of new technology, methods or practices in their field. Southwestern Michigan College can help you meet your professional development needs – whether it be renewing your professional license or refreshing your skills.
The continuing education search button on the right will take you to a listing of the course offerings available for continuing education. Simply select the appropriate area of study from the list provided and follow the instructions on the screen.

Mid-Semester - Mid-Semester classes allow you to take additional credit hours during the Fall and Winter semesters. The classes begin seven weeks into the regular semester and end during finals week.
