NEW TO CCCONLINE? OR ARE YOU AN "OLD PRO"?
Either way, once you're registered for courses, we encourage you to check out the Student Orientation on your CCCOnline student homepage. You'll be able to access the orientation within 24-48 hours after you've registered for CCCOnline courses (just login with your student ID and PIN at http://online.ccconline.org).

The orientation is a great source of information that prepares you for your "regular" CCCOnline courses. We've included instructions on ordering course materials, how to set up your computer, who to contact if you need help, etc.

So... what are you sitting there for? Go check it out!

STILL HAVEN'T ORDERED YOUR COURSE MATERIALS?
The CCCOnline summer semester starts on Monday, June 2, 2008. It's a good idea to order your course materials as soon as possible after you register – doing so will definitely make your first week of class (and subsequent weeks!) go a lot smoother.

You'll find information on how to order your course materials with financial aid at StudentWiki: How do I order course materials using my Financial Aid?

If you plan on ordering using a credit card or cash, please see StudentWiki: How do I order course materials?

HAVE YOU REGISTERED FOR SUMMER YET?
Registration for CCCOnline summer semester courses is currently open at all of our partner colleges.  You have until May 29 to register - although we don't suggest that you wait until then because you'll want to have plenty of time to order your course materials and have them in-hand when your course(s) start.  Summer courses begin on June 2 and end on August 10, 2008.

Need help applying or registering? Instructions are available  to the left of this article – just click on the big blue bar that says "Apply Now" to apply, or the big red bar that says "Register Now" to register.  Information about how CCCOnline courses work, etc. is under the New Students tab.
