Important Registration Information

	July 28, 2009: “EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, Due to State legislative action the enrollment fee for the Fall 2009 semester has increased to $26 per unit (from $20 per unit). All students, including those who have already registered for fall classes, will be required to pay the new fee. Students who registered prior to July 28th and paid enrollment fees will not be dropped for the additional $6 per unit but will be required to pay their fee balances in full. In addition, students who have previously registered and paid fees for the fall 2009 will not be dropped for non-payment if they add additional courses. Students are responsible for verifying all fee balances and registration prior to the start of the term. Please visit your MyOCC portal to confirm receipt of payment and registration (print a Student Class Program—on the Student tab under Other Resources) . Please make sure to drop any classes that you do not plan to attend and/or pay all fees dues in order to avoid a hold being placed on your record. If you have any questions about your fee balance, please contact (714) 432-5072.”

	Registration fees are due at the time of registration and should be submitted immediately after registering for classes. Failure to pay may result in your classes being dropped and released to other students (see class schedule for drop for non-payment deadlines). However, if you are still enrolled in classes when the term begins you are responsible for the fees if you do not drop before the State mandated refund deadline for each course. Please verify all drops by printing your Student Class Program available via MyOCC (Student tab/Other Resources).

	Attention Financial Aid Students: Please confirm the fees due on your account after you register for classes.  You should be able to see an account balance on your MyOCC portal page in the My Account box under the Student tab.  It takes approximately 24 hours to post your BOG waiver after registration so check back after this time.   Financial aid does not automatically apply to your account balance nor does it defer your fees.  All students, including those receiving financial aid, are required to pay registration fee balances immediately after registering for courses or they may be being dropped from classes.  The BOGFW fee waiver does NOT cover the Health Fee, College Service Charge or Materials Fees and therefore BOGFW students are required to pay  these fees. BOG recipients will be dropped for non-payment if the fees are not paid by the posted deadlines. Contact the Financial Aid Office at (714) 432-5508 if you have questions about your financial aid.

Be Prepared!!! Select plenty of alternates before you register. Open/Closed/Cancelled class information is available on the online class schedule.

Closed Classes: If a class does not have seats availalbe on the online class schedule, the class has reached maxium capacity. It's recommended that you continue to check the seating availiblity on the online schedule, since classes often reopen during the active registration period (until the course starts).   

We don't have a waitlist per say, but you can express your interest in a course and receive a notification if a new section is added. To submit a REQUEST TO ADD go to the online class schedule page and click on the link that says "Course Interest". 

This "request to add" indicates that you are interested in this course/section. It is not a waitlist nor does it guarantee that I will get a seat in the class. This request will be used to determine the demand for this section/course. It is recommended that you continue to check the online schedule since courses may reopen during the active registration period. If a new section of the course is opened, you will be notified via email so that you may register.

Add Permits/Instructor Permission: Beginning the week the class begins, instructor permission is required to add a class. To obtain instructor permission go to the first class meeting or email the instructor if the course is an online course. If space is available, the instructor may give you an ADD PERMIT with an ADD AUTHORIZATION CODE(AAC). Enroll in the course via MyOCC following the instructions on the add permit. NOTE: the registration system will not prompt you for an AAC until the course begins.
