Fall Semester 2025 enrollment is in progress. Instruction begins on September 2, 2025 and ends on December 19, 2025.
New Credit students must first apply to CCSF through the CCCApply portal. Students will be asked to verify their identity with ID.me. This secures both the admissions and financial aid processes. Students then apply to CCSF BEFORE they can register for classes. Quick registration guide.
Waitlist: A&R will contact students, in order of position on the waitlist, if a space opens up in the class. You have 24 hours to respond and add the course, after which time the notification expires. Monitor your CCSF mail often for this notification. If you are still on the waitlist on the first day of instruction, contact the instructor re: adding the class. Waitlist information.
Request to Add the Class (other than waitlisted students): Please do not submit a Class Add Request (in myRAM) unless you have confirmed with the instructor via email that space is available. All other requests will be denied.
For German 1B students (Fall semester):
Demonstration of proficiency required in order to enroll in German 1B:
If you have taken the prerequisite course of German 1A at CCSF with a grade of C or better, no further action is required to enroll in German 1B. HOWEVER, if you have acquired German language skills in another way (in high school, other higher-ed classes, e.g.) you must complete the "prerequisite clearance" process to show your proficiency level in order to enroll in the class by either 1) taking a placement test or 2) supplying a transcript from high school or another college. You must clear the prerequisite before you can enroll in the class.
If you take the placement test, the scores will automatically go to the Assessment Center, you do not need to send screenshots of the test or email them. The Assessment Center will clear you within 5 days of the test date or earlier. Once cleared, they will email you at your CCSF email address to let you know that you've been cleared. If the class is full and you can only opt for the waitlist, make a request to add the course on the first day of instruction. The instructor will authorize the add request and you can THEN register for the class.
If you choose to clear the prerequisite with a transcript, send it to the Assessment Center (prereq@ccsf.edu); they will forward it to the World Languages Department chair, who will OK it. The Assessment Center will then notify you that you've been cleared and can register. If the class is full and you can only opt for the waitlist, make a request to add the course on the first day of instruction. The instructor will authorize the add request and you can THEN register for the class.
