Registration and Placement Testing
Winter 2010
Registration for NEW STUDENTS is a two-day process. On the first day, new students are required to attend a mandatory orientation session that will take no longer than 2 hours. Following the orientation session, new students will make arrangements with a counselor to return on a second day for pretesting, counseling, class placement and registration. Pretesting, counseling, class placement and registration will take approximately 2 1/2 hours. Payment for classes is due at this time. See dates and times below for orientation and registration sessions.
RETURNING students are those who have attended a Basic Skills class in the past year. Returning students are required to come to one of the registration sessions listed below. Payment for classes is due at this time.
