When you log in to My Portal, be sure to update your Communication Preferences so that you will be able to change your password on your own. A pop-up will appear the first time you log in to your portal to ask you to confirm/update your Communication Preferences.

Meet with a CCC counselor to select the appropriate level of classes to enroll in and create a Student Education Plan (SEP).

1. Schedule an appointment with a counselor. This will require you to log in using your SCCCD ID number and password.

If you are utilizing Veteran education benefits, contact the Veterans Resource Center to meet with a Veteran academic counselor for a Veteran Student Education Plan.
2. Prepare to meet with a counselor by obtaining a copy of the following documents for the counselor to review:
   • College Transcripts (unofficial transcripts from all other colleges attended)
   • Advanced Placement (AP) exam scores (if applicable)

Clovis Community College counselors utilize an assessment process that includes measure criteria for initial course placement in alignment with AB705/AB1805, which ensures our students' right to access transfer-level coursework in English and Math. For more information please visit the Multiple Measure Placement Process page.

Attend your classes on the first day of school. If you are taking an online class, be sure to access your courses in Canvas through My Portal on the first day of the semester. You may be dropped from a class if you fail to attend the first class meeting or do not access your online courses in Canvas.

If you are waitlisted for a class when the semester starts, you still need to attend the first day. The instructor will give you an “Authorization Code” to enroll in the class if there is room available. If you are waitlisted for an online course, you will need to email the instructor to see if there is room for you to enroll in the class. If there is, the instructor will email you an “Authorization Code” to enroll in the class. Instructions on how to use the “Authorization Code” to enroll in the class can be found on the Registration Resources webpage under the “How to Add Classes after the Semester Begins” section.

If you would like to add a class on or after the first day of class, you will need authorization from the professor. To learn how to register using an add authorization, visit the Registration Resources Webpage for instructions.

If you would like to drop a class, make sure to speak with a counselor first. Dropping a class may affect your financial aid and/or Student Educational Plan. If you don't drop by the drop deadline, you may be required to pay for the class. To learn how to drop a class, visit the Registration Resources Webpage for instructions.

Follow up with a counselor to develop a Student Education Plan - Comprehensive (SEPC) before you register for the next semester. You can also contact the Counseling Office at 559-325-5230.
