This is a 2 step process! Please make sure to complete both steps.

                                         

Step 1: Click for Self Guided Placement online. Self Guided Placement will qualify you for Running Start.

We highly recommend that you attend a Student Planning Session in person. 

           Step 2: Go to the Cabrillo College home page. Login to WebAdvisor.  Click on Student Planning. Navigate to Fall 2020 in your planner. Search courses for CG51. Click on add course to plan. Make sure that you see CG51 in your planner for the Fall 2020 term.

When planning your classes, be sure to include CG 51 (Introduction to College) in either summer or fall 2019. This is a mandated course in order to maintain your priority registration for future terms. If taking CG 51 in summer, you need to submit a separate summer application.

You may use WebAdvisor to register for classes  at your designated date and time. Reminder to students to register for CG51 for the Summer or Fall (if registering for a summer section, students must apply for the summer semester in addition to fall semester). Running Start students must apply for fall in order to get a fall registration date.
