Registration

Registration dates are listed in the quarterly schedule.

New Students:
New students will register for classes during their scheduled new student orientation.

Returning and Current Students:
All degree-seeking students are encouraged to meet with their academic advisor prior to making course selections. Select the registration method most convenient for you. If you are registering online, you will need your User ID and a Personal Identification Number (PIN). New students will be sent information after their application for admission is approved. If you forget your PIN, you can have it reset to the default by contacting the college’s Help Desk at 1-800-628-7722, ext. 2800, or be emailing helpdesk@sscc.edu

  •  Web Registration: This registration method is available to students after their first quarter of attendance. Go online at www.sscc.edu. Click on Help buttons if you need assistance. Make sure you confirm your registration before exiting the program so your registration is saved. You may print a copy of your registration and fee statement.
  • In Person: You may register in person on any campus in the Student Services Office. Complete a registration planning form, available on any campus, and give it to your registration representative. (Registration forms may also be accessed through SSCC’s website at www.sscc.edu/current_students/registration.htm) At the point of registration, you will be given a copy of your schedule and fee statement.
  • Telephone Registration: If you are a continuing student, you may register by telephone during business hours by contacting the campus you wish to attend by calling 1-800-628-7722: Central Campus, ext. 2613; Fayette Campus, ext. 5698; North Campus, ext. 4520; South Campus, ext. 3630 and speaking with a registration representative. You will be mailed a copy of your schedule and fee statement.

Adding/Dropping a Class
Students may change their class schedule prior to the start of the quarter if space is available. When making a change, students need to make sure they are selecting courses within their declared major and that they have met the specific course prerequisite. Changes may be made through web registration or in person on any campus.
After the start of the quarter, a student can typically change a class during the first five days of the fall, winter, and spring quarters and during the first three days of a given summer term. Any course change is dependent on course availability and the permission of the instructor. To officially complete a course change, you must complete a drop/add form, have “adds” signed by the instructor showing first date of attendance, and submit it to the Student Services Office.
If you need to drop a course, you must officially withdraw from that course. Refer to the “Important Dates to Remember” section in the schedule booklet or online for dates by which to drop at 100 percent or officially withdraw. If you receive Financial Aid, contact the Financial Aid Office to discuss your responsibilities.

Students should be aware that not attending any class meetings of a course does not constitute an automatic drop nor does it relieve the student of tuition/fee liability. Students wishing to drop courses should do so through the established procedures.  See withdrawal policy for appropriate action.

Withdrawing
Anytime you choose to withdraw from a course, your decision must be carefully considered and discussed with your instructor regardless of the reason for the withdrawal. Withdrawing from a course has many implications that are often overlooked and unexpected. Student financial aid and enrollment status are two of the most critical factors that are affected by your decision to withdraw from a course. Depending on the timing of the withdrawal or the last date you attend a course, you could jeopardize your financial aid and end up being responsible to pay back a portion of the financial aid to the federal government. Financial aid students should contact the financial aid office at 1-800-628-7722, ext. 2610 prior to withdrawing from any class. They will assist you in the appropriate time to withdraw.
More importantly, it is vital that you speak with your instructor prior to withdrawing. SSCC instructors recognize that students have to withdraw for various reasons including reasons in which they can offer little assistance; however, in many cases, they can help but they must be notified of your challenges first. Regardless of your reason to withdraw, always speak to your instructor first.
Lastly, concerning withdrawing, it is vital that you follow procedures for properly withdrawing. Withdrawal forms are available on each campus but the form must be completed and submitted before you are “officially” withdrawn. Never assume that by simply not attending class, you have officially withdrawn.

Student Payment Policy
All registered students must make payment or arrangements to pay or have their Financial Aid Application in the Financial Aid office by the deadline date listed in each quarterly schedule of classes. Arrangements to pay include financial aid, an approved third party agreement, or a completed deferred payment plan. ($100.00 deposit required).
Students registering during the late registration period (listed in each quarterly schedule of classes), must make payment, or arrangements to pay at the time of registration. Arrangements to pay include financial aid, an approved third party agreement, or a completed deferred payment plan. ($100.00 deposit required).
Students that do not pay, or make arrangements to pay, will be dropped from classes. Once you are dropped from a class, any waitlisted student for that class will automatically take your place. If you choose to re-register you must make payment at that time for any course that is still available.
