First Step: Complete an application for admission

If you are a new or returning student, you need to complete an application for admission. To complete an application, you may select one of the following methods:

1.	You may apply on this web site; -or-
2.	You may print an application form (2 pages in Adobe Acrobat format, 368kb), complete the information, sign it, and mail it to: Los Angeles Mission College Attn: Admissions & Records 13356 Eldridge Ave. Sylmar, CA 91342
3.	-or- you may obtain an application form at Mission College's Admissions Office.

All information requested on the application must be provided. The application must declare under penalty of perjury that all information on the application is correct. All information is subject to verification; falsification or withholding of information shall constitute grounds for dismissal.

Provide a Social Security number on the application form. The Los Angeles Community College District maintains a student record system that uses the Social Security number to identify an individual's record. However, if students do not wish to report their Social Security numbers, an alternate identification number will be assigned by the College. Changes in a student's ID # may be made only in the Admissions Office. All future correspondence and request for transcripts and numbers, like all other student information are confidential and will be used only as identification numbers.

Second Step: Matriculation

Matriculation is a process designed to assist students in achieving their educational goal. It is an agreement between the student and the college. Its purpose is to ensure that all students successfully complete their college courses and reach their academic goals in a timely manner, by properly assessing the student's skills and abilities and recommending individualized educational plans for academic success. All first time students who declare a goal of earning a certificate, AA or AS degree, or plan on transferring to a University, are expected to go through a Matriculation process.

Third Step: Select and enroll in classes

To enroll in classes you need a permit from the Admissions Office of the college of your choice. You also need to select your classes, using the Schedule of Classes publication available on the college web site or at the college campus.

Once you select your classes, you may enroll on the web, or you may use the telephone system (called STEP), or you may go to the campus.

Fourth Step: Pay the necessary fees

California Law requires that all students pay a fee to attend community colleges. The amount of this fee is based on the number of units enrolled.
