Registration

Credit Classes

Credit class registration is online through the student’s account. Registration information for classes, including the day, time, and location of each, is published in the quarterly Class Schedule. Prerequisites and course descriptions can be found on the Course Content and Outcome Guides (CCOGs) on CGCC’s website. Students’ ability to register for credit classes is not activated until they meet with an academic advisor. For assistance, contact Student Services.

Community Education Classes (NonCredit)

There are several types of community education classes available through CGCC. For more information, see cgcc.edu/community-ed

• Registration for regular community education classes and VESi courses is available through CourseStorm https://cgcc.coursestorm.com/
• Registration for Ed2Go online courses is available at https://www.ed2go.com/cgccoregon/

Priority Registration

CGCC offers priority registration based on the number of credits successfully completed at CGCC. It does not include courses attempted or graded F, W, I, AU or NP, transfer credits or classes currently in progress.

In compliance with House Bill 2565, CGCC offers priority registration to veterans, active or reserve service members, and dependents receiving VA education benefits, in advance of their official registration period each term.

Adding/Dropping a Class and Late Registration

Students may make changes in their course schedule through the end of the first week of the term. The changes should be approved by an advisor. Course additions made after the first week must have instructor approval, and may not be available for all courses. The approval form must be submitted in person to the Student Services office within one week of approval.

Permission is not required for classes that start after the first day of the term and that have not yet begun, unless otherwise noted in the class schedule.

Prior to the published drop deadlines, students can drop any registered class through MyCGCC. Tuition charges will be removed; the course or courses shall be removed from the student record.

Students who fail to drop within the refund period will be responsible for the charges. The drop deadline for regular full term classes is the first Friday of the term. The drop deadline for credit classes is located online and in the quarterly Class Schedule.

If extenuating circumstances have prevented a student from adhering to a deadline, the student may appeal to have their course dropped or charges be reversed. More information on this process can be obtained in the student handbook, and students should consult an academic advisor if they have questions.

Attendance

Students are expected to attend all classes in which they are enrolled. Repeated absences will affect a student’s grade. Students who stop attending and fail to drop or withdraw from a class by the published deadlines may earn a grade of F or NP and will be responsible for the associated tuition and fees. Faculty must record the last date attended for students who earn an F, I, or NP.

Delivery Methods

Classes may be delivered through a variety of methods, including face-to-face, online, hybrid, or through Zoom.

Face-to-face classes are conducted on campus, or at a designated off-campus location, as specified in the course listing in the Class Schedule.

Online and hybrid classes are conducted via the Internet, using a course management system called Moodle. These classes are accessed through MyCGCC at www.cgcc.edu/mycgcc. Only students who are registered for the class can access course material. Students can access these courses from any computer that has a connection to the Internet, any time during the term. As with a traditional on-campus class, your Catalog | Admissions, Enrollment, & Tuition | 2022-2023 113 coursework (assignments, tests, forum discussions) will have due dates. Online classes are entirely online. Hybrid classes combine face-to-face classes with online content.

Some other classes may be offered online through Zoom. Zoom is a free, downloadable tool that allows students and instructors to communicate in a video conference format. Zoom classes may include additional resources offered via Moodle or other online methods. Students register for remote learning classes using the MyCGCC system online, the same as any other credit class. All students, even those taking online or hybrid classes only, must meet with an advisor every term to be cleared to register.

All credit remote learning courses are transcripted exactly as their traditional on-ground counterparts. Any grade received in a remote learning course taken for credit will appear on the student’s official transcript. There is no distinction made on an official transcript regarding course content delivery method.

Special accommodations can be made for qualified individuals taking remote learning courses. Please contact the Student Support Services Coordinator at (541) 506-6046.

Students must log in within the FIRST THREE DAYS of the term and show some activity by Wednesday of the first week. Instructors may no-show students as early as the first class, and students who do not log in are still liable for charges on their account. Instructors may “no show” a student who does not attend or log in, but they are not required to. Students should not assume that not logging in will mean they will be automatically dropped from an online class.

Wait Lists

If a class is full, students have the option to be waitlisted. If a space becomes available in the class, wait-listed students will be accepted in the order they registered. This process is automated; if a student is moved into the class, a notification of schedule changes will be sent to the student email account. Students who register for a waitlist place are responsible for charges for courses they are automatically moved into, regardless of whether or not they attend class.

No-Shows

Faculty will “no-show” registered students from a class if they do not attend the first class session unless prior arrangements have been made. This can be done through the first Thursday of the term, though instructors have the option to no-show students as early as the first class. For online classes, the student must log in and show activity by the first Wednesday of the term. To avoid being dropped, students should attend all classes or make prior arrangements with their instructors.

Withdrawal

A student may withdraw from a class between the second and eighth week of a traditional term-length class. Drop and withdrawal dates vary for classes fewer than eight weeks in length. Contact Student Services for specific dates for those classes.

Withdrawing from a class after the first week will result in a “W” on the transcript. Students must withdraw before the end of the eighth week, or a grade will be assigned by the instructor.

Students will be responsible for the associated tuition and fees related to the withdrawn course.

Canceled Classes

The college reserves the right to cancel a class that does not meet the minimum enrollment established by the college. Charges for canceled classes will be automatically reversed. Students will be notified by school email of course changes or cancellations. An attempt will also be made to notify the student via phone.

Course Loads

Students who enroll in 12 or more credits are considered full-time for financial aid purposes. For academic purposes, a full-time course load is 15 credits per term. To complete an Associate Degree program in two years, students should plan on registering for 15-16 credits per term.
