Registering for Credit Classes
Registration Checklist
Before you register, you will need to gather the
following information. You will be asked to present this information at
the time of registration.
- Proof of Hospitalization Insurance: All full-time students
are required to have hospitalization insurance in accordance with state
law. Bring proof of insurance to the Business Office when you register
or you will be charged for the college’s policy.
- Proof of Immunization: Also in accordance with state
law, new full-time students born since January 1, 1957 must submit a doctor's
certificate of immunization for measles, mumps and rubella. Separate evidence
must be submitted that a second immunization against measles has been administered
in order to register for the next semester.
- Placement Test Results: You must take the Placement
Test at least 10 days before registering for classes. Results from
this test will be used to determine your course placement.
- Prerequisites: If your Placement Test results indicate
a need for developmental courses, you must schedule these courses first.
Satisfactory completion of these courses is required for entry into most
college-level courses. If you are a transfer student, have official transcripts
sent from previous institutions at least two weeks before registering, or
provide unofficial transcripts to show completion of course prerequisites.
- Update of Degree Progress: If you are a returning degree
student, you should meet with your advisors to have courses approved and
registration forms signed before registration start dates. Review your
academic progress report and get the name of your advisor from the Career
and Academic Planning Center.
- Payment: Payment is due at the time of registration
unless other arrangements are made through the Bursar's Office. The following
are accepted forms of payment: cash, checks (payable to ACCC), VISA, Mastercard,
MAC and the ACCC
Payment Plan. Vouchers and purchase orders are also accepted from any
person or agency that provides a form or letter authorizing ACCC to bill
them for tuition and fees. Payment will differ depending on if you are
a general student or enrolled in the Academy of Culinary Arts, an Allied
Health program, or are a member of SAGES (Senior Adults Gaining Education
and Stimulation). Current charges are listed in the schedule of tuition
and fees.
- Chargebacks: If you do not live in Atlantic or Cape
May county you are required to file a chargeback form every semester or
pay out-of-county rates. A chargeback authorizes ACCC to bill your home
county in New Jersey for the out-of-county portion of the tuition. It is
your responsibility to verify eligibility for a chargeback with your home
county. Forms are available from the local county treasurer's office or
community college.
- Financial Aid Deadlines: If you apply for financial
aid, you will need to file at least 8-10 weeks before you plan to register.
Call the Financial Aid Office at (609) 343-5082 or (609) 463-4774, ext.
5082, for more information or visit
the Financial Aid Web page.
Visiting Students
If you are attending other colleges, and want to take
a course or courses at ACCC, you may attend as a Visiting Student. You
must still show completion of any required prerequisites with an unofficial transcript
and verify that your home college will accept the course or courses you
are taking. ACCC cannot guarantee the transferability of the course if
you have not received permission from your home college. If
you are a new student to ACCC, you must first complete the online
application or download
and print an application. You must submit a transcript
or letter of authorization from your college to attend. Contact the
Admissions Office for more information.
