In order to do this you need to have applied for admission, then you need to activate your account, a process easy to do - click here and just follow the directions
Let's look at some other helpful information like frequently asked questions, before you contact an advisor.

General Education Curriculum
The general education curriculum provides the core of learning in all degree programs. This core includes skills in reading, writing, quantitative and critical thinking which provide a basis for university study or lifelong education. Specific courses emphasize the principles of mathematics, science, or technology. Other courses on greater awareness of self, society, and the history and culture of humankind. General Education presents skills and knowledge for students to succeed in academic, career, and life goals. The General Education Curriculum fulfills the lower-division General Education requirements at any Arizona public community college or university. Any degree you are attempting will include part or all of the General Education curriculum.
• AGEC stands for Arizona General Education Curriculum. AGEC is the best way to make your credits count for most transfer degrees.
• AGEC is a 35-credit block of lower division General Education curriculum that fulfills the lower-division General Education requirements at any Arizona public community college or university.
• The purpose of AGEC is to provide students attending any Arizona public community college with the opportunity to build a General Education curriculum that is transferable upon completion without a loss of credit, to another Arizona public community college or university.
If you complete an AGEC, admission requirements are waived at all Arizona public universities.
AGEC satisfies ALL lower-division liberal studies requirements at all Arizona public universities.
Why complete a CCC transfer degree?
All CCC transfer degrees result in an AGEC. So you get all the benefits of completing an AGEC and more.
• You may be able to transfer into the university as a degreed junior.
• You will have an associate degree, making you more competitive in the job market.
Tips for students planning to transfer:
• See an advisor as soon as possible. The earlier you develop an educational plan with an advisor, the less of a chance you have of losing credits after transferring to an Arizona public university. Don’t wait until you almost graduate to see an advisor.
• Explore your career interest to help you choose a major early.
• Don’t take any more than 64 transferable credit hours, because all Arizona public universities accept only a maximum of 64 transferable credit hours.
Picking Classes
Ok, let's move on to the fun stuff like picking classes.
College is the process of making choices: You have options. Among the many decisions you'll make, it is you who decides how many classes you'll take, which classes you'll take, and when you'll take them. We can help you in this process, but ultimately these choices are your responsibility. (Print this form for help)
Your first choice is to decide how many classes you want to take. We recommend 4-5 classes or 12-15 credit hours. You will need at least 12 hours to be considered full-time, 9 is considered three-quarter-time and 6 is half-time. Some things to consider as you make this decision are:
Your course load is your decision, but all of these should be considered before making your schedule. Remember for every one semester hour of credit, you will need to allow for approximately two hours of study time.
When selecting specific courses, be purposeful. That means picking classes because they have a purpose in your overall educational picture. As an undeclared student, your picture may be a bit out of focus, but clarity comes with thoughtful course selection. For your first semester, choose classes that satisfy:
In other words, know why you are picking the classes you've picked--"because it meets my math requirement, because I'm thinking about a Psych major, I have a science deficiency, or I've always been fascinated by the Biology, etc."
English and Math:
Your first-year composition course is determined by your ACT or SAT score or by placement test at one of our campus locations. If you have ACT or SAT use the table below to find your placement.
| ACT | SAT | Placement |
| 20+ | 420+ | ENG 101 |
| <=14 | <=320 | MAT 055 |
| 15-16 | 330-400 | MAT 087 |
| 17-20 | 410-520 | MAT 121 |
| 21-24 | 530-600 | MAT 142, MAT 151, MAT 187 |
| 25-26 | 610-640 | MAT 172, MAT 187, MAT 212 |
| >-27 | >=650 | MAT 220 |
You cannot enroll in ENG 101 until you have submitted the qualifying placement test scores. You must show proof of these scores when registering. You cannot register on-line for your first ENG class. You must register in person.
All students must complete your first-year composition requirement with grades of C or better. If you have already received credit for ENG 101, you must take ENG 102. You will not be allowed to register for ENG 102 until you have demonstrated successful completion of ENG 101
Most students will select a Math course for their first semester. However, choosing the proper Math course is tricky. Math placement is based on:
Use the table above to select the proper Math course (or take a placement test). Proof of these scores are required at the time of registration.
Along with Math and English, if you are preparing a transfer degree, you will need Art and Humanities, Social Behavior Science and Lab Science requirements. There are also "special requirements" that allow students to complete an Intensive Writing/Critical Inquiry(W), Ethnic/Race/Gender Awareness(E) and a Contemporary Global/International Awareness (Historical Awareness)(C). Refer to the College Catalog for an up-to-date version of these requirements.
Normally, at this point your advisor would discuss your choices with you and offer any insight they may have before you start building a schedule. However, we want you to forge ahead and go through the following process (as much as you can, anyway) before you log-on to the Web Advisor with your questions. Think of it as practice.
In essence, registration is, a three-step process. We suggest you go through this process in the order suggested, but we also caution you that registration is also trial and error.
Think about the following as you select classes:

Don't forget your English and Math courses!
The key to building a good schedule is balance. You'll want to balance M,W,F classes with T,R classes (R=Thursday). Balance hard classes with easier classes, work with school, mornings with afternoons, and so on. Because everybody is different, the schedule you create will be unique. In the end, the only thing that matters is that you've created a schedule that will work for you.
Don't try to schedule all of your classes on the same days. A couple of classes on M,W,F with a couple of classes on T,R will give more options, make studying easier, and lighten your workload when mid-terms and finals roll around.
Schedule your harder classes earlier in the day. Research shows that students learn best in the morning, and you'll probably find it easier to tackle difficult subjects when you're rested.
Balance work and school. The more hours you work, the less you should be in school.
Give yourself a break! It's possible to make some pretty crazy schedules that work on paper, but you'll still need to eat, you'll still need to sleep, and nature will still call. Make sure you've given yourself time to take care of business and give yourself adequate down time.
Finally, be creative, be flexible, and be realistic. A good schedule will help you have a good first semester.
When it is time to register, you'll have some options:
Visit the the Registrar's web site for details about these options.
