Once you've applied to IVC and have been accepted, it's time to register for classes. Here's what you need to know about adding classes, getting on a waitlist, and dropping classes.
To Register for classes (and add or drop classes). log in to WebSTAR. WebSTAR and the Student Portal will show the date and time that you may start to register for the next semester.
Priority registration assignments are posted in WebSTAR, Summer Priority Registration Times approximately two weeks prior to the registration period.
Assignments are based on what population group along with the total degree applicable
units you have earned at Imperial Valley College.
Here are some of the groups that may qualify for priority registration: DSP&S, EOPS,
ASG, CALWORKS, Veterans, Athletes, ASPIRE, Foster/Homeless Youth, Ambassadors, IVUP,
SSS. First-time students may be eligible for priority registration if they have completed
the following: orientation, assessment and a student educational plan (SEP).
Students who attempt to register in a class that is closed may select the option to have his/her name placed on a Waitlist. Students may be added to the wait list for a class on a first-come, first-served basis.
As seats become available, students are given the option via their IVC email to add the class in which they are wait-listed.
Add Authorization codes are required to register after the first day the class meets. Add authorization codes are six-digit numerical codes available only from the instructor. Each code may only be used by the student to which it was assigned tofor that specific class.
Students may drop classes through WebSTAR as long as they are within the deadline dates pertaining to the class. Check the class schedule for deadlines.
You are responsible for dropping classes. Instructors may also drop students but are not required to do so. A failing grade will be assigned.
With the course scheduling tool students can easily input preferred courses, block off break times, and instantly generate all optimized schedules that maximize credit hours while balancing learning with life. Check out this video to learn more!
