Less than two weeks remain before the start of Fall classes, and the familiar registration lines have formed outside the college admissions office. This year, however, Gavilan College students have an option: instead of waiting in line, they can call GavNOW and register for classes by phone.
GavNOW is the new phone registration system that will allow students to register, add, or drop classes, select "credit" or "no-credit" options, check their schedules, and see if a class is open or closed, all with a simple phone call.
The system has been testing this summer, and was initially rolled out on a very limited basis. Now, registration staff says the system is working fine and can make registraion more convenient for students.
"We're ready!" said Gavilan College Registrar Joy Parker. "GavNOW will save people from waiting in line, and hopefully make the lines shorter for those students who do need to come in to register in person. Students will be able to register, check their schedules, or check for open class sections without making a special trip to campus."
GavNOW is available 24 hours per day, seven days per week. Anyone may call to see if class sections are open. To register for a class, students must have already submitted an application.
The number for GavNOW is: (408) 846-3729.
Students who need to register in person can do so at Gavilan College locations in Gilroy, Morgan Hill and Hollister. A complete schedule of classes is available online at www.gavilan.edu. For registration hours and additional information, call (408) 848-4800.
