The CCCApply Noncredit Application is LIVE in production and available to preview in the CCCApply pilot environment. Click here for links and implementation information

The passage of AB 3101 gave us the latitude we needed to deliver a modified version of CCCApply for our noncredit 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 noncredit students which began last fall 2018 has been bolstered by the passage of Assembly Bill 3101. The Noncredit Application Workflow path is a project of the CCCApply Redesign Project.

  • A different URL is used to get to the Noncredit Application path

  • A new "Noncredit Status" field was added to help identify Noncredit apps submitted. If the new Noncredit URL is used, the new <non_credit> field is set to "True", otherwise it is "False"

  • The Confirmation number for Noncredit apps that are started and submitted (or saved as In-Progress applications) using the Noncredit URL will have a "NC" prefix added to them

  • A new Integrity Flag 81 was added. When the new <non_credit> field is set to "True", Integrity Flag 81 is triggered which sends an email to the college admissions office with the message, "Applicant applied using the Noncredit URL"

  • There will be blank and/or null values appearing for a lot of existing fields, including the Citizenship, Military, and Residency fields, in your download files and in the Report Center

Project Phases

Development and implementation of the Noncredit Application will roll out in phases.  The first phase of development has already begun and a soft-launch release to the Pilot environment is scheduled for February 2019 as part of the CCCApply 6.4.0 release. Below is a breakdown of the project plan. 

Phase 1:  Development & Soft Launch

Development of the Noncredit Application (MVP requirements) began in September 2018 and the initial version will soft-launch in February 2019. 

Development requirements for the minimum viable product for release (MVP) are here

Phase 2: Pilot Project

Beginning with a soft-launch, a college pilot of six districts will test the new Noncredit application to work out the bugs, identify issues, and ensure all post-submission data and workflow processes are ready for production release. Pilot colleges will be required to participate in extended user acceptance testing and IT staff must support the effort with full implementation and integration with their SIS systems. Bi-weekly feedback meetings will be recorded and shared with colleges.
