If you experience any technical issues with your online orientation, contact us at fpr@occ.cccd.edu.
Complete step two of priority registration: SEP.
After completing the online orientation, you'll want to meet with a counselor and create a Student Education Plan (SEP). An SEP is a plan of courses that should be taken in order to reach a student's educational goal.
There are two types of plans: an abbreviated SEP (a first-semester plan) or a comprehensive SEP (a multi-year plan). During your appointment, counselors will discuss educational goals, appropriate course selection, and may refer you to support services.
Visit the to book your appointment.
After your counseling appointment, access your SEP through your MyCoast Portal on the DegreeWorks tab.
