Step-By-Step Process


The step-by-step process for advising and registration for degree-seeking and high school-completion students follows:

ADVISING

• After you complete an application for admission, take the placement exam, and attend a new student orientation. You are now ready to meet with an academic advisor.
• If you are a new student, your first advising session will be with an advisor in Counseling Services. To schedule an appointment, contact the office at: (360) 417-6340 or toll free 1-877-452-9277. Call the Forks (360) 374-3223 or Port Townsend (360) 385-4605 extension sites for help at these campus locations.
• If you are a transfer student from another college, you can also set up an advising appointment by calling Counseling Services at (360) 417-6340 or toll free 1-877-452-9277. Call the Forks (360) 374-3223 or Port Townsend (360) 385-4605 extension sites for help at these campus locations. It is highly recommended that you have official copies of your transcripts sent to Enrollment Services before this appointment, so the transcripts can be evaluated for transfer credit at Peninsula College. You should also bring unofficial transcripts to your appointment.
• If you are in a professional and technical education/Associate of Applied Science degree (AAS), or certification program, you will be assigned to an instructor or faculty member in that program after your first appointment in Counseling Services.
• If you are planning to transfer and/or complete an Associate of Arts (AA) degree, Associate of Arts Honors (AAH) degree, or Associate of Science (AS) degree, you will be assigned a faculty member as an advisor after your first appointment in Counseling Services.
• If you are a Running Start student or Adult High School Diploma student, you will meet with an assigned advisor in Counseling Services and register for classes each quarter only after meeting with your advisor. An advisor in Counseling Services must also approve changes in your class schedule.
• Contact your advisor directly each quarter to set up an advising appointment prior to registration. Call (360) 452-9277 or toll free 1-877-452-9277. Call the Forks (360) 374-3223 or Port Townsend (360) 385-4605 extension sites for help at these campus locations.

WHAT IS MY PIN NUMBER?
While you are a student at Peninsula College, you will need to access your student records online by using your student pin number. Initially your pin number is your six-digit birth date, but you may change it at any time online: http://www.ctc.edu/~pens/wts/student/. For registration purposes only, you are assigned a new pin number each quarter in order to register. You must get your registration pin number from your advisor.

REGISTRATION
After you see an advisor, you are ready to register for classes.

  1. Read the student bulletin to find out when registration begins.
  2. Check your registration access time. This is the time you can begin to register. It is NOT an appointment with an advisor. You can find your Registration Appointment here: http://www.ctc.edu/~pens/wts/student/
  3. Meet with your advisor and decide which classes you need to take. Quarterly class schedules are available on campus or on the web at: http://pc.ctc.edu/enrolled/studentcenter/schedules.asp

SCHEDULE PLANNER
Plan your preferred course schedule in advance of your appointment with your advisor.

  1. Click on Schedule Planner: http://www.ctc.edu/~pens/wts/student/
  2. Select the quarter from the drop-down box and click “Select Courses.”
  3. Reserve the times you are not available for classes by clicking individual boxes in the Time Grid. You can also reserve the hour for every day by clicking in the far left column or whole day by clicking the column heading.
  4. Type in course(s) you need or click on “View Course List” to select courses from an alphabetical listing.
  5. Click on “Submit Selections.”
  6. Select the desired course(s) and click “Register.” This will take you to web registration, “Registration Login.”
WEB REGISTRATION
  1. Click on Web Registration: http://www.ctc.edu/~pens/wts/student/
  2. Enter your student ID and the registration pin number assigned to you by your advisor.
  3. Click register.
  4. A reminder of the tuition due date will be displayed. If you are registering after this date, tuition is due at the time of registration.
  5. Verify your name and the quarter.
  6. Enter the item number for the course(s) you want in the boxes on the left hand side. The course(s) you selected will be processed. You can also add and drop classes from this screen. Click “Finish” when completed.
  7. Click “View My Schedule” to print your schedule.
  8. Be sure to close the browser to protect your privacy.

WHAT DO I DO IF A CLASS IS FULL?
If a class is full, the class may have a wait list you can sign up for. As students change their schedules or are dropped for nonpayment of tuition, students on the wait lists fill the open spots. If you decide to sign up for a wait list, it will be your responsibility to check your schedule daily to see if you have been enrolled in the class. If adding a course from the wait list creates a conflict in your schedule, it will be your responsibility to correct your schedule.

WHAT DOES “ARR” MEAN?
The abbreviation “ARR” means “by arrangement.” Typically, you will see this abbreviation if you are registering for a distance learning course, a course with variable time, or an independent study course where you make arrangements with the instructor. Click here for a faculty directory.

WHO IS “STAFF?”
Many courses in the course schedule will have “Staff” listed as the instructor. This means that the course(s) may either be taught by an adjunct (part-time) instructor or at the time of the printing of the schedule, an instructor was not yet assigned to the course.

HOW CAN I CHANGE MY SCHEDULE?
You can change your schedule by following the web registration instructions above. Don’t forget that changes in your schedule may impact your Financial Aid. Call the Financial Aid for more information, (360) 417-6390 or toll free 1-877-452-9277.

HOW CAN I GET A COPY OF MY SCHEDULE?
It’s a good idea to print out and check your schedule prior to the start of classes. Often instructors and room assignments change after registration. To print a copy of your schedule, go to My Classes online: http://www.ctc.edu/~pens/wts/student.
