It is strongly recommended that students whose primary language is not English attend an English as a Foreign Language assessment session. Orientation Orientation is a session which reviews important information about Porterville College registration procedures, deadlines, financial aid, on-campus resources, and transfer requirements. At the end of orientation, students will receive their assessment scores and be able to either see a counselor or make an advising appointment for a later date. Academic Advising A counselor will help you develop an educational plan to achieve your educational and personal goals. The counselor will assist you in scheduling courses and answer any questions you may have about graduation or transfer requirements.
New students can register at any time during open registration after completing an admission form.
If you register onto a waiting list and do not attend that class the first day, you will be dropped from the waiting list. Any student who wants to appeal assessment, orientation, or the academic advising requirement, or to request an alternative matriculation process must contact the Dean of Students.
