When Can I Register?

Registration is by appointment - Every term you will receive a Registration Appointment that are assigned a few weeks before registration begins.

Your registration appointment is NOT a physical appointment for which you must appear on campus. Rather, it is the earliest possible date and time that you can register online for a given semester. You can register from any computer with Internet Access.

When is the Deadline to Pay For My Classes?

Tuition and fees are due at the time of registration. Students are responsible for verifying all fee balances and registration prior to the start of the term. Please visit our TUITION AND FEES page for more information.

Students with an unpaid balance of $25 or more must pay their fees prior to the scheduled drop for non-payment date. (See Below) Please check your MyCoastPortal for your registration window.

Please Note: If you have Financial Aid covering your classes, please know it does not cover the COLLEGE SERVICE CHARGE, STUDENT HEALTH FEE, or STUDENT REPRESENTATION FEE. You must pay the fees, or you will be dropped.

If you are unable to pay the balance due on your account by the scheduled drop for non-payment dates, please reach out to us to review possible payment options that may be available to you to remain in your  classes. You may contact Admissions & Records via chat, Enrollment Chat or you can call 714-892-7711 for more information.

We encourage all students to apply for financial aid, as a variety of assistance may be available. For additional information, contact via chat, Financial Aid Chat  or email FinAid@gwc.cccd.edu.
