Step-by-Step Instructions


If you are a first-time student who has never completed college credits and who plans to take six credit hours or more, you are required to have a counselor's signature in order to enroll, and you are also required to complete the SCC assessment testing. You should call the Student Development secretary at 636-922-8241 to schedule an appointment with a counselor before attempting to register by mail or in person. All other students are encouraged, but not required, to see a counselor. (Academic Skills Assessment recommended prior to appointment.)

  1. Pick up registration materials. Read and complete all necessary forms. (Materials are available at the campus; printable forms are available on the Internet).
  2. Select the appropriate courses you wish to take, and check to see if the course section numbers correspond with the times, days, and locations you prefer. (If you wish to register for math or English courses, Academic Skills Assessment is required.)
  3. Examine your selection of courses to see if you have met all prerequisites for the courses. Courses that have prerequisites and co-requisites are flagged with P/C in the class schedule. Prerequisites and co-requisites for all courses are listed in the catalog. It is the student's responsibility to provide documentation that all prerequisites have been met prior to registration.
  4. Remember that all students taking English or math courses are required to make a grade of "C" or better in prerequisite courses before progressing to the next course in sequence.
  5. Bring the completed forms to the Admissions office at 4601 Mid Rivers Mall Drive in Cottleville and proceed to register. Regular registration hours are from 8 a.m.-7 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Friday. OR - If you are registering by mail, mail your completed application and registration form to:

    SCC Admissions Office
    4601 Mid Rivers Mall Drive
