Registration means enrolling in courses at CCSF.
New Credit students need to apply to CCSF. It is recommended to complete the Online Orientation and attend New Student Counseling BEFORE you can register for classes.
Readmit Credit students who have been away for more than one year must reapply. Students who have completed the Online Orientation and New Student Counseling are not required to complete these steps again.
New Noncredit students need to apply to CCSF. If you are planning to take a Noncredit ESL class, please use our self-guided placement to find your level before meeting with a counselor.

Credit Course Updates - Effective Fall 2025
Changes Effective Fall 2025
As a result of AB1111, California Community Colleges are in Phase I of adopting a common course numbering (CCN) system for all general education and transfer pathway courses. The purpose of the CCN system is to ensure that comparable courses across all community colleges have the same course number. The goal is to streamline the transfer process from California Community Colleges to four-year postsecondary educational institutions and reduce excess credit accumulation that support degree completion.
The chart below provides a list of courses that CCSF will be offered with a comparison of the current course prefix and number and the new course prefix and number based on the CCN system beginning Fall 2025. These changes will appear across the schedule, catalogs, and other college publications, affecting the following courses:
