Overview

Existing California education code law requires residency determination for every student at the time of admission to a California community college. However, the recently passed Assembly Bill 3101 (AB3101mandates that students seeking to enroll exclusively in career development, college preparation, and other non-credit courses would be exempt from residency classification requirements.

The passage of AB 3101 gave us the latitude we needed to deliver a modified version of CCCApply for our non-credit student population. Lifting the requirement for uniform residency determination for all students allows us to look at other questions and steps that might be omitted at the time of application. Our goal is to find balance in what is asked of the student that is applying for college while still collecting all of the information required for state and federal reporting purposes.

The CCC Chancellor’s Office is driving changes to ensure CCCApply supports students through the community college application and enrollment process, and is targeting development and implementation of the redesigned system in fall of 2019. Activities such as reducing the number of questions in CCCApply and creating a simpler application for non-credit students which began last fall 2018 has been bolstered by the passage of Assembly Bill 3101. The Non-Credit Application Workflow path is a project of the CCCApply Redesign Project.
