MCC uses a quarter system with four academic quarters designated as FA (Fall), WI (Winter), SP (Spring), and SS (Summer).

Standard courses are full-quarter classes that begin and end within the designated academic quarter dates (see begin and end dates in the academic calendar). Non-standard courses may run for less than the full quarter, more than the full quarter, and/or may have non-standard begin and end dates not within the designated academic quarter dates.
