Registration help
How do I register for classes?
For most credit classes, you can register yourself online via Student Planning in myClackamas. This is the preferred method of registration. For instructions on how to register for classes via Student Planning, see the videos and/or PDF instructions on the Advising webpage here: www.clackamas.edu/advising.
In some cases, you will be unable to register yourself for a class online, usually due to special permissions being required. Registration requests can also be submitted directly to Registration and Records via online form or email. The online Registration Request form can be found here: www.clackamas.edu/forms. Emailed registration requests can be sent to registration@clackamas.edu and must include the following information:
- Your full name
- Your student ID number
- Full course number(s)
- Any required permissions from instructor or advisor must be attached or part of the email chain
- Email must be sent from your CCC email account
For information about registering for specific programs or non-credit classes, you should contact the department offering the program/class.
What should I do if I’m having trouble logging into myClackamas?
If you're having trouble logging into myClackamas, follow the steps below:
- Go to my.clackamas.edu
- Click "Can't access your account?"
- Follow instructions to retrieve password.

- Still not working? Contact Registration and Records.
- Still not working? Contact IT Services for assistance.
For any further issues, view our Logging into myClackamas guide.
Can I take classes for which I haven’t met the prerequisites? What if I met the prerequisites at another school?
It is possible for you to take a class for which you have not met the prerequisites, but it will require instructor consent (see the previous question about instructor consent for more information). Note that some courses have required prerequisites, while other courses have recommended prerequisites. You may register for courses that have recommended prerequisites without instructor consent.
If you have met the prerequisites at another school and have not had your official transcripts evaluated by CCC, you can obtain a requisite waiver from Advising by filling out a Prerequisite Wavier Request form.
How do I get instructor consent (i.e. student petition) to register for a class?
Instructor consent, also known as a student petition, is required for courses that have already started and/or that require instructor permission to register (for example, individual music lessons). You can obtain instructor consent in the following ways:
1. Self-Service
- Find the instructor’s name and contact info on the course listing in Self-Service Student Planning or on the CCC directory: www.clackamas.edu/directory. Request permission to add the class.
- The instructor can give consent online so that you can register yourself via Self-Service Student Planning. Note: This will only work for courses that have not started yet.
2. Email
- Find the instructor’s name and email on the course listing in Self-Service Student Planning or on the CCC directory: www.clackamas.edu/directory. Request permission to add the class.
- Forward their consent to: registration@clackamas.edu. You must use your CCC email account and include your full name, student ID, and specific course information.
3. Registration Request Form
- Submit the Registration Request form: www.clackamas.edu/forms.
- Be sure to include the instructor’s consent as an attachment to the form (e.g. an email from the instructor).
Can I register for a class after it has started?
You may still register for a class that has already started, but it will require instructor consent to do so (see the previous question about instructor consent). You should consider whether starting a class late will set you up for success, and may wish to consult with an academic advisor about this.
What is the deadline to drop a class for a refund? What if I miss the deadline?
The deadline to drop a class for a refund depends on the length of the class.
- For classes meeting five weeks or longer: during the first two weeks of class
- For classes meeting three-to-four weeks: during the first week of class
- For classes meeting two weeks or less: before the class begins
If you miss the deadline to drop for a refund, you can still withdraw from the class for a Withdrawal grade (but no refund) within the first eight weeks of the term. After the deadline to drop for a refund has passed, you must submit a Refund Policy Petition to request a refund. The form can be found here: www.clackamas.edu/forms.
How can I withdraw from a class after the drop deadline?
The deadline to withdraw from a class is by the end of the eighth week of the term. At this point, you will not receive a refund, and the course will appear with a Withdrawal (W) grade on your transcript. A "W" grade does not affect your GPA, but it may affect financial aid or other sources of funding. You cannot withdraw yourself from a class after the eighth week of the term. Your option at that point is to contact your instructor to request a "W" grade.
