Meet with your high school counselor for course selection and to review the process for requesting classes in DualEnroll. 

Start your CCCApply application

After clicking the button above, you must:

1. Create your CCCApply account (if you don't already have one)
2. Complete and SUBMIT the MSJC application

Important:

Creating a CCCApply account alone does NOT submit your application.
You must click “Submit” at the end of the application to apply to MSJC.

After successfully submitting your application, check the personal email that you used to apply for follow-up information. 

Previously Applied to MSJC? You may need to reapply if you haven't enrolled in classes for two consecutive terms. You also may not receive another welcome email. See Step 3 below for more information.

If you do not receive any emails from MSJC within one business day, please email K-12 Partnerships at K12StudentInfo@msjc.edu using the personal email you applied with. Be sure to include your first and last name, date of birth, name of high school you attend, and grade level. 

Be sure to check your personal email in case you have been classified as a non-California resident for fee purposes. If that happens, respond to that email immediately to avoid additional fees being assessed to your account.

MyMSJC Account Initial Login with My Apps

If this is your first time applying to MSJC, a welcome email will be sent to the personal email address you provided on your application. This email will contain instructions for activating your MyMSJC account. 

If you have previously applied to MSJC, you may not automatically receive a new welcome email. You may request another copy using this link:
https://selfservice.msjc.edu/requestWelcome 

If you previously applied to MSJC but have not registered for classes for two consecutive terms, your account may have been deactivated. You will likely need to submit a new application for admission before you can access your account or register for classes.

If you are applying for the first time and do not receive a welcome email within 24 hours, first request another copy using the link above.

If you still do not receive the welcome email that day, please email K12studentinfo@msjc.edu. Be sure to include your first and last name, date of birth, high school, and current grade level.

MSJC Student Email Account:

Your MSJC student email account will be created after you register for at least one MSJC class. Additional information will be sent to the personal email address you provided on your application for admission.

Complete your online orientation: 

• Log in to MyApps using your MyMSJC username and password.

• Click the Online Orientation tile.

• Complete the orientation (approximately 30 minutes, including videos).

The orientation can be taken on your smartphone, laptop, tablet, or desktop computer.

Monitor Course Request Status

Students are responsible for monitoring course requests in DualEnroll and MSJC Self-Service and completing any required next steps.

• DualEnroll: A request that has completed the approval process will show “Ready to Register in Self-Service.” If the request cannot move forward, students should review the status and messages in DualEnroll for the reason and any applicable next steps.

• MSJC Self-Service: Under “Petitions & Waivers,” an eligible K-12 course request will show a status of “Accepted.” This means the student has permission to register for the course on or after their assigned registration date and time. Accepted does not automatically enroll the student in the course or guarantee a seat.

---

DualEnroll Notifications

DualEnroll may send text-message updates if the student provides a mobile phone number. Email notifications are sent to the student's MSJC email account, not the personal email address used on the MSJC application.

Students may not have access to their MSJC email account until they have registered for at least one MSJC class. Do not rely on receiving notifications. Students should log in to DualEnroll regularly to check their request status.

Need Help Choosing Classes?

Students: If your high school counselor cannot assist you with choosing MSJC courses toward a degree or certificate, visit the MSJC K-12 Counselor Virtual Lobby.

Enter the Virtual K-12 Counselor Lobby

A current MSJC student ID number and login are required to access the virtual lobby (see Steps 2-3 above). 

For additional questions or technical difficulties, email K12studentinfo@msjc.edu. 

IMPORTANT:

High school students MUST have approved course requests in DualEnroll and MSJC Self-Service (see Step 5), even if they receive a registration date. 

Registration takes place online through MyMSJC Self-Service.

Check Your Registration Date and Holds

Students can view their assigned registration date and time in Self-Service by navigating to:

Resources > Student Information > Registration Information

This area displays the date and time students may begin registering for courses, along with their residency status.

For a registration date to be assigned, students must have a current application for admission on file and resolve any holds that prevent registration. Students should also check Self-Service for any holds that may prevent registration. Common holds include incomplete online orientation, outstanding balances, and identity verification requirements.

Allow up to 24 hours for orientation completion to update in the system.

Refer to the Important Dates page for information about when registration dates and times are assigned.

Once you have confirmed your approved course requests (Step 5 above) and your assigned registration date and time (Step 6 above), you can register for classes through MyMSJC Self-Service. 

Learn how to register for classes using Self-Service. 

For additional information, see the FAQs below. 

Fee Descriptions and Refund Policy

For high school students, the fees vary depending on whether students take Dual Enrollment, Concurrent Enrollment, or a combination of both. Middle College courses are treated as Concurrent Enrollment for fee purposes. Residency status may also affect fees. 

Students can pay fees online through MyMSJC Self-Service using a credit or debit card (MasterCard, Visa or Discover).

For cashier assistance, visit the Student Support Hub. Business hours vary by campus. 

Part-Time High School Student Fees (11 units or less for Fall/Spring; 8 units or less for Summer)

Part-time high school students do not pay the $46/unit California Enrollment Fee in most cases. 

Part-time high school students DO, however, have to pay miscellaneous fees as follows. 

	RTA Go Pass	Student  Government Association (SGA)	Student Representation  Fee (SRF)	Health  Center Fee (HCF)	Parking   iParq
Dual Enrollment	REQUIRED	Optional;  DECLINE to opt out*	Optional;  DECLINE to opt out*	NOT REQUIRED	NOT REQUIRED
Concurrent Enrollment	REQUIRED	Optional;  DECLINE to opt out*	Optional;  DECLINE to opt out*	REQUIRED	NOT REQUIRED

*To decline an optional fee, follow these steps prior to registration:

1. Log in to your MyMSJC Self-Service
2. Under the User Options menu on the left, click on Required Agreements
3. Select the fee you wish to decline
4. Select Decline

Students must decline optional fees each term, even if they declined them previously.

Full-time High School Student Fees (12 units or more) 

*REQUIRES SPECIAL PERMISSION FROM BOTH HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT AND MSJC* 

If a high school student exceeds 11 units, thereby becoming a full-time MSJC student, enrollment fees will be assessed for all units enrolled. 

High school students cannot enroll in more than 11 units without special permission from their high school district. Students who wish to pursue this should email K12studentinfo@msjc.edu for more information and include their high school counselor on the inquiry. In the event that a high school student is enrolled as full-time, but chooses to revert back to part-time status, all applicable fee waivers will be put back in place. 

 

Residency Status and K-12 Fees: 

Under AB 2364, eligible part-time high school students may qualify for an exemption from nonresident tuition fees. The exemption does not change their residency classification. After high school graduation, students may need to provide documentation to establish California residency and qualify for resident tuition rates.

Not all nonresident students qualify for this exemption. Students who believe they have been charged nonresident fees in error should email K12studentinfo@msjc.edu and include their first and last name, date of birth, high school, and grade level. 

Students must start the MSJC course enrollment process by meeting with their high school counselor first. Because the process requires multiple approvals and can take a month or longer, it's important to begin early and meet all stated deadlines. For questions or assistance, email k12studentinfo@msjc.edu.  

These are the two most common ways high school students take MSJC classes:

Dual Enrollment

High school students take college courses on their high school campus during the school day with high school teachers approved to teach select MSJC courses. Students may earn both high school and college credit. No college enrollment fee is charged, but students are responsible for paying the miscellaneous fees (see Step 8). Approval from the student's high school or district is required. 

Concurrent Enrollment

Concurrent Enrollment courses occur outside the high school day (online, evenings, or weekends) with MSJC instructors. Seats are limited, and enrollment may not count for high school credit. Fees apply as outlined in Step 8. Approval from the student's high school or district is required. 

 

High school students do not pay the $46 per-unit California Enrollment Fee. However, students are still responsible for certain miscellaneous fees. 

High school students are considered Part-Time Special Admit students. They may take:

• up to 11 units in fall or spring
• up to 8 units in summer

See Step 8 for a complete list of applicable fees. 

• Dual Enrollment: Required textbooks and course materials are provided.

• Concurrent Enrollment: Students are responsible for obtaining their required textbooks and course materials.

Yes. MSJC accepts the most recent unofficial high school transcript along with any other required documents, such as AP test scores.

Documents must clearly show the student's name and the test score(s).

Yes. High school students must meet the same course prerequisites as other MSJC students. Prerequisites are listed in the course descriptions in the MSJC College Catalog. They can also be viewed in the Self-Service Course Catalog once classes become available for the semester.

Completing a similar course in high school does not necessarily satisfy an MSJC prerequisite.

Students may need to provide documentation showing that they meet the prerequisites before they can enroll.

Yes, all high school students at MSJC must follow the College's rules and regulations as outlined in the College Catalog, Schedule of Classes, and Administrative and Board policies. 

Once a student enrolls in a college course, their records are protected under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). This means:

• Instructors and college staff communicate directly with the student, not parents/guardians
• Parents/guardians cannot access grades, progress, or records without the student's written consent
• Parents/guardians cannot enroll, drop, or manage classes on the student's behalf

If a student chooses, they may submit a signed Consent for Release of Student Information form to allow limited access. However:

• Communication with parents or guardians is at the discretion of the instructor or staff member and is not guaranteed
• Students are still expected to manage their own enrollment and communication

High school students taking MSJC courses are considered college students and are responsible for handling their own academic matters.

Yes. High school transcripts are required to determine course approval, the number of units a student may take, and whether prerequisites for courses are met. 

Yes, MSJC course grades appear on your official MSJC transcript. Provide your high school with transcripts if needed for credit. For details, visit msjc.edu/enroll/how-do-i-request-transcripts.html

No, 9th and 10th grade students are not eligible. Students must be in 11th grade or higher to enroll in English courses at MSJC. 

High school students should not take MSJC ENGL C1000, as it can be considered equivalent to high school AP English (upon a passing score of the AP exam). Students who scored 3 or higher on the AP English exam are generally not encouraged to take ENGL C1000. Questions should be directed to their high school counselor.

In very rare cases, middle or junior high school students may be considered for admission to MSJC as special part-time students. Because MSJC courses are college courses, students must demonstrate readiness for college-level academic expectations, independence, maturity, and rigor.

Students must meet all applicable K-12 student requirements and deadlines and must demonstrate sustained academic achievement at or above the high school level. Because middle school coursework is not equivalent to high school or college coursework, strong grades in middle school classes alone may not be sufficient to demonstrate college readiness. A current transcript and letters of recommendation from both the principal and school counselor are required.

Submission of a request, transcript, recommendation letter, or DualEnroll.com request does not guarantee admission or enrollment approval. Each request is reviewed individually, and MSJC may deny requests when the documentation does not demonstrate appropriate readiness, eligibility, or course suitability.

California Education Code allows, but does not require, community college districts to admit eligible K-12 students as special part-time or full-time students. Community college districts may also limit admission or enrollment based on factors including age, grade level, and demonstrated eligibility.

Students must meet with the appropriate MSJC Administrator before the request in DualEnroll.com can be reviewed. For questions or guidance, email k12studentinfo@msjc.edu to connect with the K-12 Partnerships team.

Yes. Students must submit a new college course request each semester they wish to enroll in MSJC classes. Course requests and approvals do not carry over from previous terms.

All requests must be submitted in DualEnroll.com by the posted deadline for that semester. The same course request deadline applies to late-start classes, regardless of when the class begins. Late requests will not be accepted, and students who do not submit a request by the deadline may not be eligible to register for classes.

Please refer to the current Dual and Concurrent Enrollment deadlines and timelines for specific dates.

No. UC and CSU admissions consider California Community College courses that meet A–G requirements on a 5.0 scale and are contractually required to accept courses listed on www.assist.org for degree and general education requirements. In contrast, AP and honors courses are not contractually guaranteed to count toward UC/CSU degree or general education requirements. 

Each K–12 District decides which college courses satisfy high school graduation requirements. Meet with your high school counselor to confirm which MSJC courses your school will accept for core graduation credit. 

Your MSJC student email account is not created until after you register for at least one class. Instructions will be sent to the personal email provided on your application. See Step 3 for more details. 

College coursework taken at MSJC, including courses taken while in high school, becomes part of your college academic record and may affect your Academic Standing and future financial aid eligibility.

MSJC's Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) requirements consider all periods of enrollment, regardless of whether you received financial aid. Grades, withdrawals recorded on your academic record, and attempted units may affect your future eligibility for federal and state financial aid. 

High school students with an IEP or 504 plan who want assistance from MSJC Disabled Students Programs and Services may register with the program if they are taking Concurrent Enrollment course(s). For more information, please visit their website here: msjc.edu/dsps  

Students taking Dual Enrollment courses will work with their high school site for accommodation requests. 

A cross-listed course is a course that overlaps two or more academic disciplines. Example: HIST-128 & BIOL-128 are both titled History of Science, and the course content is identical. 

No, high school students are not permitted to audit MSJC courses.
