REGISTER FOR CLASSES ONLINE
For step-by-step instructions of How to
Register for Classes, refer to the
Student WebAdvisor Training Manual.
Are you having problems registering for classes?
Is the class restricted?
Restricted classes usually require testing such as English, Math or advanced Chemistry placement testing. Refer to the Assessment Center web page for more Placement Testing information
www.sac.edu/StudentServices/AssessmentCenter
Does the class have a prerequisite?
You can check to see if a class has a prerequisite using the
Online Records System/WebAdvisor. Click on the Section Information of the class. If a class has a prerequisite, and you did not take the prerequisite at SAC or SCC, you will need to get a prerequisite clearance (class waiver) from counseling. This will require an official transcript which shows the successful completion of the prerequisite.
Is it your registration date yet?
View your registration date using the
Online Records System/WebAdvisor. You may register for classes on or after your registration date until the Saturday before classes start.
Are you repeating the class?
If you are repeating a course for the
third time, a
Course Repetition Form will be required, please register in-person.
Are you a returning student?
Are you using Internet Explorer?
DROP/WITHDRAW FROM CLASS POLICY
When dropping classes via the
Online Records/WebAdvisor, the process is not complete until you click "Submit", after clicking the "Drop" check box next to the section you wish to drop.
In the Registration Results screen, confirm the status of your Drop transaction, then click OK. To confirm that your class was dropped, go to My Class Schedule to view your updated class schedule.
It is the student's responsibility to drop a course by the deadline to avoid financial obligation to the college or to avoid receiving a "W", "F" or "NP" grade. Even if you stop attending the class, you owe the fees unless you drop before refund date.
Note:
Students will NOT be dropped for non-payment once the semester/session begins.
For late starting classes, please check
WebAdvisor for drop and refund deadline to avoid fees. |
LATE REGISTRATION
After the semester/session has started, students may petition to be added to the class by:
-
Attend the first class meeting.
-
Add the class online by using Self Service.
WAITLIST POLICY - (If you're on the waitlist - check your email daily)
Some waitlists may have a maximum limit. If you cannot add yourself to the waitlist, then the waitlist is full. As a courtesy to other students, please drop yourself from the waitlist if you no longer plan to take the course.
Once the semester/session starts, the waitlist roll-over process stops, however, students wait listed for the late-starting classes will continue to be rolled into open seats (after the second week of the semester).
NOTE - YOUR NAME WILL REMAIN ON THE WAITLIST AND NEVER ROLL INTO AN OPEN SEAT IF:
