New Student Checklist

Before your first Semester:

New Students must file an application with the Admissions and Records Office or the satellite sites at least 10 business days prior to registering.

If you are a new student and plan to take the Placement Assessment Test, please submit your application first.  Once you obtain a Gavilan ID number, you can then go on the Assessment webpage and fill out the registration form for the assessment test.

Request transcripts from high school and/or previous colleges.

You must meet with a counselor if:

• you are taking over 17 units (or over 5 in the summer)
• your class has a prerequisite that was not completed at Gavilan
• you are on academic probation or in a "disqualified" status
• you are a high school student
• you are an international student

Registration (each semester)

Take your completed registration card and transcripts to Admissions & Records on the main campus or to the Hollister or Morgan Hill sites   OR
