Students may have the option of placing themselves on a waitlist for closed classes. If a seat opens up, waitlisted students will automatically be registered in the class in order of their priority on the waitlist. Students will be notified through MyVCCCD email when they are moved into a course off the waitlist and prompted to pay for the course to finalize registration.

See Waitlist Information for Closed Classes for further information about the waitlist process.

• View the How to Waitlist a Class Online guide for step by step instructions.

Students may have the option of placing themselves on a waitlist for closed classes. If a seat opens up, waitlisted students will automatically be registered in the class in order of their priority on the waitlist. If a seat does not open up, the student will need to request an add code from the instructor before the last day to add deadline for the specific CRN listed in the online Schedule of Classes. If the instructor agrees to add the student and gives the student an add code, students must utilize the add code in their MyVCCCD portal to register in the course. Payment for the course must be made to finalize registration.

• View the How to Use and Add Code Online guide for step by step instructions
• You may find the instructor's email in our Online Directory.

The Registration Calendar lists the registration dates for each student type for each term. Students may check their assigned date in their MyVCCCD portal under the Register/Pay tab.

If you accidentally drop your classes you need to work with your instructor to get back into the course.

First, check the online Schedule of Classes or your Student Schedule/Bill to determine the Census date for the class.

• If it is before the census date, you must ask your instructor for an add code to get back into your class.
  • If you instructor is willing to give you an add code, you will follow the steps in the How Do I Use an Add Code section to register into the course.
• If it is after the census date, you must ask your instructor to complete a Reinstatement Petition.
  • If your Instructor authorizes you to take their class, they will complete this form in their faculty portal, under VC Faculty e-Forms.
