Identity Verification

This policy allows Mid Michigan College to confirm each student’s identity and helps to prevent identity theft. As part of the admissions process, new students are required to complete a one-step identity verification process that can be completed in person or online. Failure to provide a government-issued photo ID and verify identification in a timely manner will result in a student’s inability to register and may impact the awarding of financial aid.

Most new students are required to meet with a Mid Mentor before registering for courses and identity verification can take place during that meeting. If a student does not meet with a Mid Mentor, one of the following two options must be completed. Either option is typically available 8am - 4:30pm Monday - Friday or by appointment unless campus hours have been seasonally adjusted.

• Visit Student Services on either campus. 
  • Upon arrival, you will be asked to sign in to the kiosk indicating the reason for your visit. You can complete this process as part of a scheduled appointment or outside of an appointment with any Student Services team member by presenting a government-issued photo ID. A copy of your ID will be taken and you will then be eligible to register for courses. 
• Attend a Zoom video meeting. 
  • Connect with a Student Services team member via Zoom. During the meeting you will be asked to hold up your government-issued photo ID while your face is also fully visible on camera. A screenshot of your ID and face will be taken and you will then be eligible to register for courses. 

Failure to provide a government-issued photo ID and complete identity verification in a timely manner will result in your inability to register fo courses and may impact the awarding of financial aid. If you are having trouble obtaining a valid identity document, contact Registration & Records at (989) 386-6659 or enrollment@midmich.edu.
