    Questions students ask

    When can I sign up for spring 2027 classes at COS?

    Priority groups and continuing students: Monday, October 26, 2026. New and returning students (open registration): Wednesday, November 18, 2026. Your exact time is the registration appointment shown in COS’ student portal.

    Why do some students get to register before me?

    California's community colleges follow a registration order set by state rules (California Code of Regulations, Title 5, section 58108). Groups the law names come first, including active-duty military and veterans, current and former foster youth, and students in DSPS, EOPS or CalWORKs. Next are continuing students who have finished orientation, placement and an education plan with a counselor. COS sets the exact order within those rules.

    How do I get an earlier registration time at COS?

    Finish orientation, placement and an education plan with a counselor at COS before registration opens, and stay in good academic standing. Students can lose priority after two terms in a row on academic or progress probation (some colleges now call it "notice"), or once they pass 100 degree-applicable units.

    What if the class I need is full?

    Join the waitlist if the section has one, and keep an eye on it through the first week: seats open up as students drop. Depending on the college, you are either added automatically or sent a permission number or add code that expires, so check your email. Going to the first class meeting matters, since instructors often add waitlisted students who show up. The list above shows which COS classes filled last fall, so pick backups for those.
