Obviously, the earlier you register for classes, the better your chances are of getting in to your first choices.

State law defines the order in which students get access to registration, known as your registration date. Each student, based on a set of pre-defined conditions, is assigned one of six registration blocks.

Your registration priority is based on the number of VVC units you have already completed, your academic standing, and your assignment to any special student categories, such as veterans, foster youth, or disabled students.

It is also based on whether or not you have completed the three core services: Orientation, Assessment, and Educational Planning. Student educational planning is a requirement for priority registration.

Remember that you can lost your priority status if you:

• Are placed on academic or progress probation, or
• • Have earned 90 or more degree-applicable semester or quarter equivalent units at the district or other higher education institutions.
