Helpful Hints for Successful Registration

• Students must be admitted to the College and meet all assessment and/or course prerequisite requirements prior to registering for classes.
• An assigned registration date and time is required to use the online registration system, except during open enrollment and after the term has begun. To view your assigned registration date and time, click on "Register" at the top of the home page and log in to Online Registration.
• Computers are available for student use in the E-Services Lab located on the first floor of the DeRicco Student Services Building.
• To protect confidentiality, each student should conduct their own registration.
• Be prepared for registration. A first choice may be full. Therefore, select two or three more sections of the same course before registering.
• All fees due to the College as well as any administrative and/or academic holds that prevent enrollment must be cleared prior to registering for class. To check holds, log into Online Registration, select the "Records" tab and review the information noted under the Student Holds section. Students must contact the office(s) noted in the Student Holds section in order to clear a hold placed on their records by that office.
• It is the student's responsibility to provide documentation (official transcripts) to show proof of having met a course prerequisite when the prerequisite course was taken at another regionally accredited school within the United States. To avoid delays in registering for class, transcripts must be submitted a minimum of 10 working days in advance of the student's assigned registration date and time.
• The registration system will prevent time conflicts, multiple registrations in the same course, and placement on multiple waiting lists.
• Maximum unit enrollment prior to the beginning of the fall or spring semester is 18 units and 9 units during the summer term. Additional units may be added after the term begins. Student enrollment is limited to 24 units per semester for fall and spring and 12 units for summer.
• After a student's assigned registration date and time has passed, courses may be ADDED or DROPPED as often as necessary while the registration system is available.
• After registration has been completed, fee billing and payment notifications are sent to the student's Delta College email account. A follow-up email will be sent prior to the opening day of the term reminding students to log in to Online Registration in order to view/print their class schedule. Students should check their email at least once a week throughout the term and more frequently during registration.
