Get Started: How To Enroll

Step 1:

Apply for admission to Coastline College. Refer to the Dual Enrollment Guide for a walkthrough of the application.

Within 3-5 business days after the application, you should receive an email Welcome Letter that has your:

• Coastline ID Number
• MyCoast username and password
• Course registration window

Step 2:

Fill out the form below that applies to you. This form requests signatures by the student, parent/guardian, and a high school official. Once all signatures are in, Coastline will take 1-2 business days to process the form. Students, you will receive updates in your college email and you can view status of the form anytime in your Dynamic Forms dashboard.

You will access the form with your MyCoast account.

• Fees

  California Residents

  For high school students, the tuition cost is waived and you are responsible only for enrollment fees and course material costs when applicable. This same rule also applies to undocumented students attending a California high school.

  If you are taking a class that is part of a College & Career Access Pathways (CCAP) Agreement, your tuition, enrollment fees, and course material costs are all waived.

  California Nonresidents

  Per AB 2364, CA nonresident high school students do not pay the nonresident tuition fee if they are a United States citizen, a US citizen living abroad due to parental voluntary reasons, or have an eligible immigrant visa. Enrollment fees and course material costs still apply.

  CA nonresident high school students with a non-immigrant or foreign visa pay the nonresident tuition fee, but the enrollment fees are waived.

  For complete information on Coastline's cost of attendance, please visit Tuition & Fees.

• Policies
  • Allowable units: High school students can enroll in up to 11 units for Fall and Spring semesters, 9 units for Summer session, and 6 units for Winter session. Students of a K-12 District with a Dual Enrollment Agreement with Coastline can take up to 15 units each Fall and Spring semester if the courses meet specific conditions. For more information, contact Coastline Dual Enrollment.
  • Permanent record: Enrolling in college courses creates a college transcript.
  • Prerequisites: Not all courses offered at a Coastline campus or online are available for high school students. Some have required pre-requisite classes and additional qualifications, which can be found by consulting the current class schedule or College Catalog.
  • Transferring courses to a university: Students planning to apply coursework taken at Coastline toward college or university admission or progress toward a degree should contact the respective institutions regarding policies involving prior coursework.
  • Unit equivalency: The University of California recognizes college semester-length courses of 3-semester units as equivalent to 10 credits earned in an eligible one-year high school course. Exception: The first semester of a college-level foreign language course is considered equivalent to the first two years of high school foreign language (20 credits).
  • FERPA: Under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, students attending an institution of higher learning become an adult when it comes to their educational records at that institution. It is the policy of the Coast Community College District, in accordance with FERPA, to not release/discuss a student's records without the signed release from the student authorizing the release of that information to anyone except the student. For more information, refer to our FERPA page.
