Can I take courses online? 
As a policy, the Department of State expects students to study face-to-face when possible. However, due to Covid-19, online and hybrid courses have been authorized through the Fall 2020 Semester.

Will I receive an ID?

When you register for a course, students will present a letter of registration and ID to security personnel once we begin in-class courses again. 

Is there parking at Monroe College? 
There is street parking on Main and surrounding streets. There is also reasonably priced parking at the New Roc City Garage. We will provide specific parking information once you register for classes. 

May I bring my host children to class?

May I bring a friend to the class?  
Instructors have the right to accept or refuse any visitors or observers. You may bring a friend to one class with advance permission from the instructor.
