Step 1 – Connect with an academic advisor

If you would like to connect with an academic advisor to plan your classes, instructions can be found here. Academic advisors can also review your unofficial transcripts to assist with placement for upper level courses

If the TCC course you want to take has a prerequisite you have already satisfied, you can complete our prerequisite waiver form for approval by including a copy of your unofficial transcript. NOTE: You will need to submit a waiver for each TCC course you want to take.

Step 2 – Register for classes

Check out our academic programs by pathway for a list of classes you need to take to complete a certificate or degree. Follow these steps to register online.

Step 3 – Arrange to pay for your tuition

TCC offers options including payment plans and educational benefits for active military, dependents, and veterans. Discover your payment options here.

Please be aware of tuition deadlines which vary based on the start date of the class.

Step 4 – Get ready for classes

Get your TCC student ID card – please wait at least 24 hours after registering for classes to get your student ID card. This can be done at any of the campus Student Centers. Bring your valid state-issued ID card along with your student ID number.
