How to Register (Archived)

Class schedules made available each semester and summer sessions outline the courses that are planned. As students register, some class sections reach capacity, making them unavailable to more students. You may select classes available at the time you register.

Registration for specific courses takes place throughout the academic year. Refer to Flexible Entry Courses in this section and/or contact the Advising/Registration Offices for additional information.

Follow these steps:

  1. After completing the Application for Admission, ask the Admissions Office or Academic Advising staff what assessment steps are required for you.
  2. Obtain a schedule for the semester or summer session for which you are enrolling. Schedules are available at the college and online at http://www.dcccd.edu/Current+Students/Courses+and+Programs/Class+Schedules.htm.
  3. Meet with an advisor to determine the courses you wish to take. You may be eligible for online registration if you meet specific eligibility criteria. Refer to Recommended Academic Load in this section.
  4. Register for classes.
  5. Pay for your classes by the designated due date on your registration summary or establish a tuition payment plan with accounting service.
Note: If you submit an online Application for Admissions, you will receive one of the following immediate responses:
For Complete Applications: DCCCD: Letter of Acceptance and Next Steps
For Incomplete Applications: "This application is Incomplete and does not have a Summary page to view."
For Students Not Accepted: DCCCD: Application Summary (this means additional information is needed before you will be accepted for admissions).
