1. Application: Apply Online or print an application
    
   Online: When your completed application is submitted, you will be sent an email within 48 hours informing you of your student ID number, PIN number and registration date.
    
   In Person: To apply in person, submit your completed admission form to the Admissions & Records Office located in E1-501 of the Main Building. You will receive your student ID number, PIN and your registration date immediately. During open registration periods, you may submit your admissions application and register for your classes at the same time.
    
   
2. Assessment: Mission College students planning to work towards a degree or certificate, or to transfer to a 4-year university, are required to take assessment tests for English, Reading and Math. Students interested in enrolling in English-as-a Second Language (ESL) courses must take the ESL assessment test. Tests are available on a drop in basis at the Assessment Center. An assessment waiver may be obtained by providing the Counseling Office with proof of a grade of "C" or better in appropriate college courses, or test results from another college that clearly identifies eligibility.
3. Counseling Drop-In: Speak with a counselor about course recommendations, major and general education requirements.
   • Prerequisites: If a class you wish to take has a prerequisite that you completed at another college or in high school, bring an unofficial transcript to the Counseling office to have your prerequisite cleared.
   note: Complete Steps 3 and 4 by completing Counseling A(.5 unit course)
4. Registration: We offer students two ways to register and pay for classes. After reviewing the semester schedule of classes, write down the information for each course you would like to add: course name, section number, meeting days and times. To register in person, please fill out an Add/Drop form with the course sections and submit it to the Admissions & Records office.
    
   For your convenience, you may also register and pay fees online through MyWebServices. To use MyWebServices, you must have your College ID# and your password. 
5. Attend Class: You must attend classes (or contact your instructor to make alternative arrangements) during the first two weeks of the semester or you may be dropped from your classes. It is your responsibility to drop classes, if you are not going to attend.
6. Counseling Appointment (during your first semester): Make an appointment with a counselor to create an Education Plan that outlines the courses needed to reach your educational goals for graduation (certificate or associate degree programs) or transfer.
