Yes. It is imperative that students complete the registration form each semester than plan to participate. In order for us to ensure that Financial Services can process these waivers in a timely and accurate manner within their deadlines, we must have all participants' forms turned in at the beginning of each semester.

If we do not have your paperwork on file prior to the second week of courses during each semester, we will be unable to process a waiver after that time.

There are so many options! Students can take in-person (at the Springfield campus), online, or blended courses so long as they have met the required prerequisites and there are seats remaining.

This fee waiver cannot be applied to intersession, special courses, noncredit programs, or off-campus courses.

Use the Class Schedule Search to look for available courses.

Visit our Class Schedule Search to explore available classes. You may filter by a variety of fields, although it is not necessary to enter any filtering criteria.

Recommended fields include Subject (if known), Campus (Springfield, MO or Online), and Open Sections Only. For online classes, select Online Asynchronous under Modality.

Auditing is a grading option that allows completion of a course without receiving credit or a traditional grade. It is your choice whether you audit the course or not.

Students are required to pay special course fees*, required textbooks and supplies (including digital course material charges, such as StreamlinED), and parking fees.

*Special (supplemental) fees can be found on pages 22-25 on the 2026-2027 Board of Governors Fee Resolution. 

Registration forms are processed manually by the Adult Student Services team in the order that they are received. Online registration forms are typically processed after the in-person registration event has ended.

Remember that registration is dependent on seat availability and meeting prerequisites. If you have obtained special permission from the instructor or department, please forward it to AdultStudentServices@MissouriState.edu. Once your form is processed, you will receive an email from a staff member indicating whether you have been registered or if there are additional steps needed to move forward.

You can find your course materials through the MSU Bookstore's website.

You can review required course materials prior to registration through the Find Your Courses section of the How to Find & Order Textbooks.

If your course uses StreamlinED digital course materials, you can visit our StreamlinED landing page for more information.

If you will be parking on campus in a Missouri State lot, you will need a parking permit.

Instructions on buying and displaying your permit can be found online through the Transportation Services - Parking website.

If you have questions or need assistance, please contact the Parking Office at Parking@MissouriState.edu or call 417-836-4825 (after hours, 417-836-5509). In-person assistance is available in office (700 E Elm St.) during business hours: Monday-Friday, 7:30a-4:00pm.

The Foster Recreation Center is available to MSU 62 students, but will require a small fee. Students who do not pay full student services fees (7+ credit hours) including those taking intersession classes, iCourses, and Internet classes will owe additional fees based on number of credit hours taken each semester. Review membership rates and types.

Missouri State University is required by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to furnish all students with a Form 1098-T for each calendar year with qualified charges and payments. The Form 1098-T details the qualified charges and payments that hit the student’s account within a specific year. These include personal payments, financial aid and waivers. Note that this is based on when the activity hits the account, not according to the term to which the activity is related. In participating in the MSU 62 program, you are receiving a waiver, and it must be reported.

These forms must be post-dated by January 31st each year but are typically made available well before this date. The forms are mailed to the address listed on your My Missouri State account unless you opt in to an electronic form. Electronic forms are available through your My Missouri State account. If you opt in to receive it electronically, a paper version is not mailed.

You are encouraged to connect with a tax professional if you have concerns about how this may impact your yearly taxes.
