Welcome to Orange Coast College!
International students (those requiring an F-1 Visa) please click here for application information. Please do not use this application.
New and returning students, regardless of their educational background and goal, must apply for admission. If you need financial assistance, apply for financial aid at the time of the application (you’ll be given an opportunity to apply via the FAFSA website at the end of this application.)
If you've already submitted an online application, please DO NOT create a new account. Please sign in using the user name and password you established the first time you signed in.
PLEASE NOTE: Continuing students (those who are registered in classes for the current term) do NOT need to reapply for admission. Continuing students will automatically receive an appointment to register for the next term. Appointments will be available via your MyOCC site a few weeks before registration starts so make sure to check your MyOCC portal.
OCC is NOW accepting applications for the following terms:
Summer 2008
Session 1: June 2-July 27, 2008
Session 2: June 23-August 17, 2008
Fall 2008
August 25-December 14 2008
Important Information: Once you submit your online application, you’ll receive an email immediately (sent to the email address you supplied on your application) instructing you what you need to do next. Please make sure to read all the email you receive regarding your application.
Note: If your email address is incorrect you will not receive a confirmation of your application or instructions as to what you need to do to complete the admissions process. Some Internet Service Providers filter mail from Orange Coast College so please check your trash folder if you don't receive an email response in about one week of submitting your application. You can avoid this by adding occadmissions@mail.occ.cccd.edu to your Friendly Approved Senders list. This is especially important if you use providers such as AOL, Yahoo, Earthlink, MSN, Hotmail, or Roadrunner and/or you use spam filters.
Once again, welcome aboard! We look forward to serving you.
We will accept applications for the Spring 2009 beginning September 1, 2008.
