Apply for Admission

                                        New Enhancements to CCCapply 

                 Please read before starting your Gavilan Admissions Application


California Community Colleges works with ID.me and the CA DMV to verify the identity of students who apply to California community colleges using CCCApply. This streamlines and secures both the admissions and financial aid process while also safeguarding student information. 

The ID.me and CA DMV role in this partnership is only for identity verification. ID.me or the CA DMV Wallet does not approve admissions or financial aid applications. Please read the ID.me guide and the CA DMV Wallet information before beginning your CCCapplication.

Things you should know:

  2. If you are a temporary/permanent resident, provide the INS number from your residency card.

  3. Be sure to check for accuracy. Any mistakes or missing information will delay the processing of your application.

  4. Once your application has been submitted, you will receive an e-mail confirming receipt of your application. The processing time of your application may take up to 24 hours (excluding weekends and holidays).

  5. After your application has been processed, you will receive an e-mail with information on how to obtain your Gavilan ID number and PIN.
