Things to consider:

  • ​High school students must meet all course prerequisites and necessary qualifications before registering for the course designated on their form. Please read the course description on Course Catalog to ensure you are eligible for a class.

  • Enrolling in college courses creates a permanent college transcript. 

  • If a student no longer wants to take a class, it is the student's responsibility to drop a course before the drop deadline to avoid getting a negative grade on their college transcript. 

  • Not all courses offered at Santa Ana College are available to high school students. Please read the course descriptions on Self-Service to verify eligibility.
