Registration Open Enrollment Policy
In conformity with the provisions of Title 5 of the California Administrative Code, the governing Board of the South Orange County Community College District affirms a policy of open enrollment. Unless specifically exempted by statute, every course, course section, or class, wherever offered and maintained by the District, for which average daily attendance is reported for state aid, is fully open to enrollment and participation by any person admitted to the college who meets the stated course prerequisites.

MySite
MySite is the IVC web portal that enables students to view their registration times, class schedules, grades, and academic history; add or drop classes; and access a variety of useful resources.
Students need an ID number and a Personal Identification Number (PIN) to use MySite. For more information about MySite, please refer to the student handbook.
Maintaining Student Contact Information
It is important for students to maintain current contact information, including the phone number, email address, and mailing address in their college record. An address and phone number may be updated through the student’s MySite account under “My Information” or through the Office of Admissions and Records, located in the Student Services Center. Mail returned from the US Postal Service with a new forwarding address will be used as the basis for updating a student record. Students are encouraged to provide a mobile number and opt into the critical text message feature in MySite.
Registration Restrictions
A hold is placed on student records in certain situations such as payments due, academic standing or discipline. A hold may prevent students from registering for classes. If that is the case, there will be a brief statement provided during the online registration process indicating the restriction. Students must clear all restrictive holds prior to registration. Contact the indicated office for information on how to get the hold released. Outstanding debts must be resolved before registering for classes.
Students who are required to complete advisement or orientation, or those who need to clear a prerequisite prior to registration, should contact the Office of Admissions and Records if they have questions or concerns. See the Matriculation or Prerequisite sections of the catalog for more information.
