Visiting Student from another College New or Continuing (Non-matriculated students)

All pre-requisites must be met before a student can take a course. Visiting, non-matriculated students who completed a required prerequisite with a grade of C or better at another college may submit an official transcript to the Registrar’s Office OR may show an unofficial college transcript at the time of registration. Unofficial transcripts may be shown either in person or by email (see below).

• To register in person for a course requiring a prerequisite, visiting/no-matriculated students should bring their unofficial college transcripts or copy of SAT/ACT score to the Registrar’s Office in the Administration Building, Room 107.
• To register by email for a course requiring a prerequisite, visiting/no-matriculated students should send an email to SummerRegistration@sunywcc.edu and include in the email the student’s WCC ID number as well as the name and class numbers for the courses requiring the prerequisite. Attached to the email should also be a copy of the student’s unofficial transcript or SAT/ACT score. This copy must include the name of the school and the student’s name. Once approved for the course, the student will then be able to register for the course on their MYWCC account.

Continuing Student Registration
There are two ways for continuing students to register:

Online Registration is open to students whose academic and student accounts are in good standing (without “holds”). To register online, visit www.sunywcc.edu/MyWCC and follow the How to Register instructions on the login screen. Note that your User ID and Password are required. For questions about holds, contact 914-606-5600.

In-person Registration is available to returning students during regular business hours on the Valhalla campus (Administration Building, Registrar’s Office, Room 107) and at our Ossining, Mount Vernon, Peekskill, White Plains, and Yonkers extension locations. For office hours, visit www.sunywcc.edu/registrar or www.sunywcc.edu/locations

Know This Before You Register
Continuing students who are taking developmental, non-credit classes or students with a cumulative GPA of less than 2.0 must meet with a counselor before registering. To meet with an Academic Counselor, visit the Student Center, Room 219. Counselors are also available at our Mt. Vernon, Yonkers, Ossining and Peekskill locations. For counseling hours visit: www.sunywcc.edu/student-services/counseling/counseling-office-hours/

• You do not need your Spring 2019 grades in order to register for Summer 2019.
• Meeting with a counselor or your faculty advisor before you register will ensure that you register for courses that apply towards your degree!
