hey guys so my name is arman hofsampion and this is skydirkhall and we are here to tell you that we are both student workers at los angeles city college and we work at the welcome center and outreach and recruitment and in this video we're going to show you guys how to complete the lscc application all step by step yes we're going to walk you through both applications the openccc application and the lacc application um for the openccc one we're going to show you how to create an account and go through every question and for the lacc one we're going to go through every single question very thoroughly very clearly very slowly so you guys can understand it and a lot of people don't know that there are actually two separate applications um so we're gonna go through both of them and yeah hopefully it's gonna be nice and easy for you guys and by the end of it you guys are gonna be official lacc cubs so we are going to start the application first off we're going to start with the openccc application which is the first step in the process so if you're just starting out you are in the right place so what you're going to want to do first is go to your browser of choice my favorite is google chrome i think it works the best and then what you're going to type in the search bar is la city college and it's going to take you to the lacc homepage which looks like this then you're going to go to the top right hand corner and you're going to press apply to lacc it's going to take you to the los angeles community college district page and you're going to scroll all the way down and then you're going to click on click here for college application now i'm going to make a note of something do not click the non-credit application which is this one here unless you want to take non-credit courses non-credit courses means that you will not be able to transfer with these credits because you won't get them if that makes sense um so if you do want the non-credit application however you can click this one however most of you guys will be wanting to click the college application one which is the first one so that's where you're going to get all your grades and all your credits and everything like that so click on that one for me and then you're going to go to the page where it's the comm the california community colleges sign in page or the openccc sign-in page so if you have a username and a password an account already you can just go ahead and sign right in but most of you guys will need to create a new account which is this little button here in the middle of the screen so click that one and it's going to take you to this page um and just go to the bottom left corner and it'll say begin creating my account just click on that and then it's going to take you to the personal information page where you input all your personal details so step by step first question is your first name so just put your first name for the sake of this video um we're just going to make up someone's contact details so this is not a real person that any of us know of so um i'm just gonna put john middle name dave and last name smith pretty standard um so you're gonna put your first name your middle name and your last name if you have a suffix please put it in like junior or senior or the first the second third the fourth that sort of stuff um if you have a previous last name or a previous name in general such as a maiden name click yes if you do not click no if you have a preferred name that is different than your legal or previous name you can click yes if not

standard and then you're going to confirm that date of birth so put the exact same date in the second column then if we scroll down a bit it's going to ask for your social security number so it's going to ask you do you have a social security number or a taxpayer identification number if you do have a social or a tax id number click yes if you do not click no and for the purposes of this video since we can't you know make up a social i'm just going to click no so if you are enrolled exclusively in non-credit courses if you are an undocumented student an international student a non-resident alien or if you have another exception and you don't have a social or a tax id number click this box right here and for the purpose of this video since we're not providing a social i'm just going to

Now we see the class English 101 so I'm just gonna click on that class, and there it is. I'm gonna click inside there again. And this will take me to step one where I'm just reviewing to make sure that this is the right class I want to add which it is two zero seven zero zero. We're gonna click step two and here's where I can put the permission number that was sent from the instructor so I'll click inside there paste in the permission number and click the green accept button in the upper right corner. Next I'm just gonna make sure that it says enroll which it does. And then we're gonna click on step four and in this step we're just gonna double check that everything's right and then click submit. And confirm by clicking yes. And this should do it I get the confirmation the class has been added to my schedule got the green checkmark. So there it is. If you're on a waitlist and a teacher sends you a permission number this is how to add. And I think this will work even if you aren't on the waitlist and have a permission number. I'm pretty sure it works the same way. So here's my enrolled course as you can see that I'm now enrolled in two zero seven zero zero. As well as a tutoring class below. West has free tutoring so you might as well sign up for online tutoring if you haven't already. That's it thanks for watching
