Registration Times

Priority Registration Order

Priority registration is given to Continuing Students who have completed the matriculation process. Matriculation components consist of assessment, orientation, counseling and the completion of a Student Educational Plan (SEP). Even if a student is exempt from matriculating, the student may complete any of the components to increase the probability of academic success.

First-term priority registration includes assessment, orientation, and counseling/advising; continuing priority registration includes the completion of a Student Educational Plan.

This table reflects a combination of State or Federal mandated groups, priorities that align with the College Mission and the goal of increasing student success and completion. Overall, students must have completed orientation, assessment, and have met with a counselor for initial priority and have completed a Student Educational Plan (SEP) for subsequent priority.

You may be given priority registration status if you complete the following steps:

1. Make an appointment with a counselor.
2. Select your courses.
3. File a Graduation Evaluation Request Form with a counselor who will verify eligibility for graduation and give you a priority registration time.

Students can view their priority registration appointments via the web. See How to Check Your Registration Status for full instructions.
