MATRICULATION

The matriculation program assists students in establishing appropriate educational goals and provides support services to help them achieve these goals. Students eligible for matriculation receive an evaluation of basic skills, orientation, counseling, completion of an educational plan, and follow-up services. All first-time college students must complete assessment, orientation, and counseling (AOC) before registration.

For more information, please visit the Matriculation webpage.
For assessment information, please visit the Assessment webpage.
For counseling information, please visit the Counseling webpage.

Early Alert

Please check your email for your Early Alert notifications and deadlines. Early Alert is a follow-up activity designed to inform students of their progress early in the semester and encourage students to utilize College resources in accomplishing their educational goals. Instructor participation in Early Alert has proven success in assisting students to stay connected with your class. The purpose of Early Alert is to indicate if a student is showing early signs of academic difficulty, not what grade the student is receiving, as some instructors have not tested students by that point. The Early Alert screen is conveniently available in WebAdvisor for you to complete.

Note: Early Alert is time sensitive and must be completed in WebAdvisor by the stated deadline in order for the appropriate students to receive a letter.

For more information, please contact the District Matriculation office at (951) 222-8442.

Matriculation Appeals Petitions

Prerequisites and corequisites will be enforced according to District policy. Students who wish to challenge a prerequisite based on unofficial documentation or work experience may complete the required Matriculation Appeals Petition and must provide supporting documentation at the time the appeal is submitted. The Petition is available at the Counseling Department at any of the three campuses. A campus Matriculation Specialist processes the petitions under the supervision of the Dean of Student Services, and in some instances, the Department Chair of the discipline may assist in making a determination. Decisions are made within five working days. Students who provide unofficial transcripts as their documentation are required to provide official transcripts before the next registration cycle begins.
