K-12 grade students and Adult Students in a GED/HISTE are considered part-time special admit students. They can only register up to 11 units per semester as individual dual enrollment students. Students in a CCAP pathway partnership through their high school can register for up to 15 units.

Tuition coverage:

Tuition for students taking individual Dual Enrollment is covered up to 11 units per semester. Students in a High School CCAP pathway through their high school are coverd up to 15 units per semester.

Tuition coverage is NOT automatically applied to the student account:

When students register for classes, the tuition cost is automatically added to their student account. If students have completed all of the required dual enrollment steps, they will have a sponsorship applied to their student account, which waives the cost of tuition. It can take 7 days for the student tuition balance to be cleared by the Cabrillo Business Office. Only tuition is covered for dual enrollment students. Parking permits, textbooks, material fees, and other student fees are not covered.

Going over the allowed amount of units:

If a student wishes to go over the amount of allowed units they will need to contact the Dual Enrollment Department. If any student registers over the allowed amount they no longer qualify for tuition coverage and are responsible for the cost of all of the units they register for.

Dual Enrollment students will receive registration clearance after they have applied and their Dual Enrollment eForm has been approved. Dual enrollment students receive a specific registration date and time based on their assigned registration ranking. Visit the Admissions & Records Registration Date webpage for information about registration dates and times.

Students use the Student Planning tools in MyCabrillo to plan and register for their courses.

Individual Dual Enrollment students will be responsible for registering themselves for courses.

CCAP dual enrollment students will be registered by Cabrillo for their CCAP courses.

Adult dual enrollment students will be responsible for registering themselves for courses.

What is a waitlist?

• A waitlist keeps track of students who are waiting for a spot in a class that is full.

How do you get on the waitlist?

• When a class is full there will be a waitlist button instead of a registration button in student planning. Click here learn how to add yourself to the waitlist

What happens after I add myself to the waitlist?

• Students will receive an email if a spot becomes available and they are next on the waitlist. Students have 72 hours to register themselves for the course. If they do not register within the 72-hour window they will be dropped from the waitlist. If this happens, they will be able to add themselves to the waitlist again. Their name will go to the bottom of the waitlist and the process will begin again.

I added myself to a waitlist, will I get a spot?

• We do not guarantee that students will get a spot in any class. Students are responsible for adding themselves to the waitlist, monitoring their waitlist status and registering for the class.

How can I get priority on the waitlist?

• There is no way to get priority on the waitlist. Students are encouraged to plan and register for classes as soon as possible to avoid being on the waitlist.

What happens if I am still on the waitlist when the semester starts?

• Attend the first and second class meetings (if the class meets in person) or email the instructor (if the class is online) even if you are still on the waitlist. You will need to let the instructor know that you are on the waitlist and are interested in adding the class. If they have room available they may provide you with an add code to register for the class. If you do not get an add code from the instructor within the first two meetings of the class, its safe to assume that you will not be able to add that class.
