STEP 1 - ADMISSION
Who is Eligible for Admission?
How Do I Apply?
- Complete the Application for
Admission. An Application for Admission can be
obtained from this web site, the Office of Admissions
and Records, or from the center of the current
Schedule of Credit Classes. The Application for
Admission generates the Permit to Register. It
is important that students turn in the Application
for Admission before completing other steps in
the registration process. All new and returning
students must complete an application.
- Mail-in applications must be received approximately
one month before the beginning of the term, all
applications mailed in after that deadline will
be sent back. Please consult the current Schedule
of Credit Classes or this web site for specific
application deadlines. All other applications must
be submitted to the Office of Admissions and Records
in person.
- Submit official transcripts from all accredited
High Schools, Colleges, Universities or Trade Schools
attended. Unofficial transcripts may be considered
for eligibility purposes if the student's name
and the institution's name are printed on the documents
and official transcripts are expected to arrive.
To register for or add a class that has a course
prerequisite, a student must have a transcript
or grade report on file to verify satisfactory
completion of the prerequisite course.
- A Permit to Register will be sent to the mailing
address indicated on the application. The permit
will tell you your assigned registration date and
time. You will not be allowed to register before
this assigned date and time.
STEP 2 - ASSESSMENT
Most classes have basic skill prerequisites that must
be assessed prior to registration. Assessment must be
completed prior to registration. To Make a Test Appointment:
- Determine the test required for courses in which
you plan to enroll (see the current Schedule of
Credit Classes for test information.)
- Make an appointment with the Assessment Center
located on the lower floor of the Student Services
Center or call at (909) 594-5611, ext. 4265.
- On the day of the test come to the designated room
ten (10) to fifteen (15) minutes early.
STEP 3 - ORIENTATION
Orientation is mandatory for all new and transfer students
who are enrolling at Mt. San Antonio College, unless
otherwise exempted. For appointments or exemption information
please contact the Counseling Office, located on the
upper floor of the Student Services Center, or by calling
909.594.5611 Ext. 5913.
Students must have an Application for Admission on file,
and have already taken the assessment tests, and have
test results prior to attending orientation.
Completion of orientation is required prior to registering
for classes. Students returning to Mt. San Antonio College
or students who have already taken orientation do not
need to take orientation again.
STEP 4 - COUNSELING & ADVISING
Once orientation is complete counselors are available
to help if you:
- Do not have a major or are undecided in a career
choice
- Need help with vocational or career plans
- Need to choose a university or college for transfer.
Educational Advisors are available to help if you
- Need information on course selection.
- Would like to find out what classes are needed
for an Associate Degree or Certificate.
- Need help with your educational plan
- Need general information about the college.
STEP 5 - REGISTRATION
What Can I Do Before Registration to Save Time?
- Prepare a tentative class schedule. A work sheet
is available in the current Schedule of Credit
Classes.
- Be sure you have completed the required prerequisites
for the courses you have selected. Consult the
current Schedule of Credit Classes or College Catalog
for prerequisite listings.
- Be sure to register for the required co-requisites.
When Do I Register?
Check your Permit to Register for your date and time.
You may not register prior to the date and time printed
on your permit. All registration is by telephone or
online. There is no over the counter registration through
the Office of Admissions and Records prior to the beginning
of the semester. Registration telephones and computers
are available in the Student Services Center for registration.
Follow the directions on the Registration
Worksheet in the current schedule of credit classes.
It may be helpful to fill out the worksheet prior to
registering for classes.
STEP 6 - FEES
Fees must be paid within seven (7) working days from the
day the student registers. Classes not paid by the 2nd
week of the semester (or 1st week for short-term classes)
will be billed and obligated. This obligation will withhold
registration privileges, student grades, transcripts,
degrees, and student services until the obligation has
been paid. Students can make payments by credit card
through telephone or online registration or by mail,
by drop box, or in person.
