The MCoOL student handbooks are designed not only to help students become acquainted with the Minnesota Center of Online Learning policies, but also to increase awareness of the difference between online learning and traditional education. Students may contact a member of the Minnesota Center of Online Learning administration for help should a topic arise that is not covered in these handbooks.

All students entering MCoOL on a part-time arrangement are enrolled under a 25-day probationary period, wherein the student must make satisfactory progress in his/her course(s). MCoOL reserves the right to remove any student from his/her course(s) for not meeting the required minimum expectations within the probationary period.
