All new and returning students start at the Advising Center. New Students When new students are ready to register, they’ll schedule an appointment with an advisor knowledgeable about their degree or certificate program. Advising appointments typically take 30 minutes to an hour. The Advising Center offers in-person and virtual drop-in advising; during drop-in advising, you will meet with an advisor who will discuss your academic goals, register you for your first semester classes and identify any next steps for getting started. Unable to attend drop-in hours? Call or email to schedule an appointment! Returning Students If you have attended GCC previously, but have been away for a semester or longer, you will need to re-apply through your admissions portal. Once you have reapplied, you can meet with an advisor in the Advising Center to re-assess your academic plan and enroll in courses. Returning students should attend our virtual or in-person drop-in advising hours. Current Students Current students are able to enroll themselves in courses in MyGCC once they have been issued a PIN by their Success Coach or Faculty Advisor (contact your coach or advisor directly to make an appointment). It is important to utilize DegreeWorks to ensure your courses will help you satisfy outstanding requirements for your current program of study. Important Registration Info Registration for current students opens two weeks before new/returning student registration; check the academic calendar for dates Students can enroll in courses up until the add/drop deadline of any term Registering early is the best way to ensure you get the classes you need in the modality of preference Be sure to resolve any holds on your record that may prevent course registration
