Registration Video Walk-Through


When you register for a study group at the beginning of a term, you will automatically be charged the $125 term membership fee and thus become an MCLL member for the duration of that term which entitles you to the following:
  • Full MCLL membership and all membership benefits for the duration of the 10-week term, including access to Â鶹Çø libraries, IT assistance, and Brainy Bar workshops.
  • Access to two 10-week study groups OR access to one 10-week and two 5-week study groups

Transferring Between Study Groups

After the first two sessions of a study group have taken place, a member may only join a study group with the moderator’s permission. You may transfer from one group to another in Athena up until the day before the second session that the study group meets.

Register Early!

Please register early, since some study groups are extremely popular, and the number of participants per study group is limited. Waiting lists are established automatically when study groups become full.

Members are askedÌýnotÌýto communicate with moderators concerning registration. Once your registration is confirmed, you may get in touch with the moderator for any additional information regarding the study group content.

Wait Lists

Members on the wait list will be notified by email from the School of Continuing Studies or AskD, if a space becomes available for them. They will have 24 hours after receiving the email to accept the place. ÌýTo do this, they need to sign into their Athena account and click on My Registration History. There is a Wait Listed tab, under which there is the option of accepting the wait listed place.Ìý

Dropping out of Study Group/Refund Policy

You may drop a study group in Athena until one day after the second session of the study group has taken place. Please keep in mind that if you wish to drop a study group, it should be done as early in the term as possible so that there is time to move people in from the wait lists. If, after the first two sessions of your study group(s), you do not want to continue with any of them and would like your money back, you can receive a full refund of your membership fee. The deadline for requesting this refund is the beginning of the third week of your session. Requests should be made to the MCLL office.
