Course Registration

Students are encouraged to register for classes early. Students who are pursuing a certificate, degree, and/or transfer-oriented coursework must complete three steps before registering:

1. Admissions Process: Complete the Student Information Form/Application and speak to an admissions specialist for additional guidance.
2. Orientation: DACC provides orientation for new DACC students. Orientation is available online or in-person. Visit https://dacc.edu/orientation or speak to an admissions specialist for more information.
3. Placement Testing: To support student success, DACC has set proficiency levels in reading, writing, and math required for various courses and programs. DACC utilizes the ACCUPLACER placement tool to measure reading and writing and ALEKS to measure math skills. Students may also submit ACT and SAT scores for course placement. The Testing & Academic Services Department can provide websites with test preparation tools if requested by students.

To take a test, students are required to schedule an appointment at least two days in advance and present a valid photo ID upon arrival each time. Students can schedule their appointment by calling or online at https://dacc.edu/testing-center. Enrolled students should have their Student ID number ready when scheduling an appointment. Please note that students should schedule their appointments at least two (2) days in advance of the desired test date.
