Summer Registration begins April 7
Fall Registration begins April 14 for degree/certificate students, and May 5 for non-degree students
New Students with no prior college experience will receive advising and registration through the One Stop Student Services office. Once they have chosen a major and first semester registration is completed, they will be assigned an Advisor/Success Coach to assist them throughout their educational journey.
After registering for their first semester courses, students should keep an eye on their CCRI email for a meet-and-greet invitation from their assigned Advisor/Success Coach.
Current Students (registered for current and/or previous term) should connect with their assigned Advisor/Success Coach, review any holds on their account in MyCCRI, and register online. Students may connect with their assigned Advisor/Success Coach in-person (on-campus) or virtually by making an appointment in Starfish.
Returning Students (previous CCRI student who has not attended CCRI in two or more years) are encouraged to submit a new Admissions Application and then attend a Virtual Drop-in Advising Session to discuss educational plans and goals and to register for courses. Once they have chosen a major and registered for courses, they will be assigned an Advisor/Success Coach.

Transfer Students (new to CCRI but attended college elsewhere first) are encouraged to attend a Virtual Drop-in Advising Session to discuss educational plans and goals and to register for courses. Once they have chosen a major and registered for courses, they will be assigned an Advisor/Success Coach.
