The admission process at College of the Canyons is straightforward and designed for accessibility. Prospective students must complete an online application via the California Community Colleges website, CCCApply. After submitting the application, applicants receive a student ID number and instructions for next steps.
Next, students must complete orientation, assessment, and develop an educational plan with a counselor. While transcripts are not required for admission, they may be necessary for placement or prerequisite clearance. There are no application fees, but tuition fees apply once enrolled. Deadlines vary by semester, so checking the college website for specific dates is recommended.
