General Dual Enrollment

Visit IVC Class Schedule. Find a class and write down the ticket number. You may enroll in up to 11-units per semester or summer session.

If you have not taken a class in the past year, you will need to re-apply to IVC.

• Visit IVC California Community College (CCC) Apply.
• First Time Users: create an account by using either your PERSONAL EMAIL or your phone number. You will only need to create this account once.
• Returning Users: sign in.

After creating/signing into your OpenCCC account: 

• "Start a New Application" and complete the IVC application. 
• Specify no high school diploma earned; expected graduation date (put June 15 of graduating year if not known).

Check your personal email for a response from IVC that includes your IVC student id number

• You should receive this email within 24-hours after submitting your CCC application.
• If you did not receive an email, notify the Office of Admissions and Records via CCC Application Search Form or by calling 949-451-5220.

Activate your IVC email and change your default password.

• You will receive an email with a link to activate your IVC student email. If you did not receive it, contact Tech Services at 949-451-5696 and provide your student ID number.
• For security purposes, it is highly recommended that you change your password. You can do this by clicking the "Change Pin/Password" link.
• Your username is your IVC email without the "@ivc.edu," which you would use to access your IVC Canvas for class information.

Add forwarding email address on MySite

• In MySite, under the "Profile" icon in the top right corner, make sure your IVC email is being forwarded to your personal email address. 
• All communications between IVC and you will be done through the IVC email.

This form needs to be submitted every semester for which you plan to take classes at the college.

• Find the form under the General Dual Enrollment Form section below, select your school, and use your IVC credentials to log in (if you're not already logged in).
• Fill out your information—including the Course ID and Ticket Number for the class(es) you are interested in—digitally sign, and submit the form.
• Your parent/guardian and your school official will receive an email to digitally sign the form. They will need to create an account if they have never signed a Dual Enrollment Form before.

Look for an email from IVC informing you your General Dual Enrollment Form has been processed. 

• Once your General Dual Enrollment Form is processed and approved, you can register for your class on or after your registration appointment. Check your registration time by logging in to MySite > My Information > Appointments.
• Check the class description to see if it has a prerequisite. Visit the Prerequisite & Corequisite Clearance webpage for details on how to submit evidence to clear the prerequisite.

Grades 9–12 students may register online through MySite.

• Once your registration window opens, log in to MySite > My Classes > Add/Drop Classes. Add the class(es) you were approved for and pay the $26 health fee. You will need the class ticket number to register.
• If the class is full, you can add to the Waitlist and be notified by your college email with a time window to enroll if seats become available.
• Watch: How to Register for Classes Video »
• After the class begins OR if the class is closed:
  • Choose the Waitlist option for the class, if it is available.
  • Attend the first day of class and request an APC (Add Permit Code).
  • Follow registration instructions above using the APC Code.

K-8 students cannot enroll themselves through MySite.
We will enroll them after we receive approval from both the dean and instructor of each class listed on the General Dual Enrollment Form.

Log in to the IVC Portal using your username and password. Select Canvas from the list of applications. This is where you will find the class information, NOT on your K-12 school district Canvas. Your class will show up on Canvas (learning platform) 4-6 hours after officially enrolling in the course and by the first week of class.

• Students that don't show up to class on day 1 or fail to complete week 1 tasks in online courses will automatically be dropped as "no shows." 
• Students should ensure they have their textbooks prior to the start of class.
• Please check your class's drop deadlines (one without a Withdrawal grade, and one with a Withdrawla grade, on the schedule of classes).
