  • Complete all the steps to registration and print your class schedule.

  • Find the location of all your classes before the first day of school. Visit the campus and find the specific classrooms. This will help you be on time for the first day of class.

  • Allow extra time if you are parking on campus. Better yet, car pool, use public transportation, or ride a bicycle.

  • Bring supplies, such as pencil and paper on the first day of class.

  • Most students find it helpful to purchase their books before classes begin. The Bookstores are located in Pioneer Hall on the Santa Rosa Campus and Mike Smith Hall on the Petaluma Campus.

  • It is very important that you attend all your classes. If you are on an official wait list for a class, you must attend the class. Your name will automatically move up the list if anyone drops from the class, and your wait list status may change to an official registration in the class. Be sure to check your class schedule using your student portal to determine if you are officially registered.

  • Your instructor will provide a syllabus on the first day of class. Be sure to keep it, because it explains the course requirements.

  • Counselors are a great resource for students. If you experience any problems or have more questions, please talk to one.
