To take courses at the NCSC campus or online, complete these next steps.

Schedule your required advising appointment. During advising with you we’ll build an approved CCP course plan, so that you are cleared to complete your class registration using MyNC. We want you to get the most out of your time in CCP and will help you build a pathway of courses to align with your future goals.
Before your advising appointment, review the CCP Pathways and Ohio Transfer Pathways. These tools are essential for a clear path to your degree and/or transfer plans.

Advising Questions May Include:

What are interests & potential future goals? (Thoughts/plans so far on what’s next for you)
What are your weekly & seasonal time commitments?
What are your remaining HS Graduation Requirements?
How many college credits has your counselor confirmed you can take this school year? (in combo with high school credits you’ll take)
Did you submit the annual Intent to Participate form to your school counselor?
- Due every year.
  - APR 1 (To start with Summer or Fall classes)
  - NOV 1 (If not starting until Spring/January)

Work closely with your school counselor to complete items for registration.

*Remember, you are an NC State College student, regardless where your course meets. You have access to college resources from your school or home, such as Orientation, Bromfield Library and Info Commons, Career Development Services, Advising & Transfer Planning, Tutoring & Learning Center, Tech Support, Computer Labs, Campus Rec. Center and Events.

Once registered for class, you can stop in Byron Kee Center to get your NCSC Student ID card. This provides you access to even more — loads of discounts, a $5 credit each semester to print materials, free RTA bussing, and campus events.

Once you’ve taken course at NCSC or online, you may use MyNC for class registration with advisor approval of your term course plan.*

*Each term, CCP students are required to secure advisor approval of their course plan in MyNC, to utilize the self-registration tool.
Every MARCH and OCTOBER meet with your NCSC advisor for review/approval to register the following month.
- Confirm your course plan for 1-3 semesters at a time
- Opening dates for Priority Registration (by Major) are listed in the NCSC Academic Calendar for each semester.
After approval in MyNC, you must select a section (when/where/how it meets) and then click ‘Register’.
*Until you click ‘Register’ and MyNC shows a number of enrolled credits, you are not registered in the course.*

A SUMMARY of YOUR STEPS EACH TERM for COURSE REGISTRATION:

Secure advisor approval of your planned courses in MyNC for the upcoming term, permitting you to register.
When Priority Registration Opens for your Major (CCP is with Undeclared): Log back in to MyNC, select your section and click ‘Register’
Confirm the status of your course(s) in MyNC changed to: “Registered, not started”. This completes registration, securing your class.
