If you need to be in touch with your student (while s/he is on cruise) in the event of an EMERGENCY (death or serious illness of a family member for example) please call Security at 207-326-2479. The Communications Specialist will contact the ship and the individual you need to speak with will call you back. The Communications Specialist will ask you for the following information:
1. Your name.
2. Your contact information.
3. The name of the person you need to speak with on the ship.
4. Your relationship to the person you need to reach.
5. The nature of the emergency.

PASSPORT Requirement: All students entering Maine Maritime in a licensed program are required to have a passport for the first years training cruise. If your student does not already have one, applications are available at any U.S. Post Office.
Processing of passport applications by the U.S. Government can be lengthy. Apply as soon as possible to avoid delay. Please bring this document with you in the fall or as soon as you receive it. No Passport? NO CRUISE - NO EXCEPTIONS.

TWIC
(Transportation Workers Identification Credential) cards are required of all
students in the unlimited license program to participate in training cruises
and cadet shipping, and for some other students for some cooperative
assignments. Arrangements for obtaining a TWIC card are made through the
Registrar’s Office early in the fall of the freshman year. All fees ($150)
for the TWIC are paid directly by the student to Homeland Security.

TWIC.
