Dear High School Contact: The staff and faculty at LACC are delighted to offer college classes on your high school campus. The classes will be offered from September 2 to December 20, 2014. (Finals TBA) I am looking forward to the fall semester and assisting you in enrolling your students in the classes offered on your campus. It is essential you follow the procedures below to ensure your students receive college credit. Please note LAUSD begins the semester three weeks prior to LACC start date and ends the same week of LACC finals. Therefore, you will have three weeks prior to the start of the class to register your students online and have paperwork delivered to LACC by Friday, August 22, at Noon. All applications will be completed online. Have students print out their confirmation page when application is submitted. They will then receive their 88 ID number within the next week. Students must have their own email account. All paperwork must have the 88 ID number included. Additional required forms are to be brought to the LACC president s office by Friday, August 22 at Noon. You may bring forms to the President s office any time after June 9 th, the earlier the better! Forms may be copied. Do not use last year s forms! Use forms enclosed. Since applications must be done online, your high school staff is responsible for supervising the online application process in a computer lab on your campus. Students who have already completed classes at one of the Los Angeles Community Colleges will be able to use their 88 ID number if they have taken a class within the last 12 months. Students will have to reapply if it has been longer than 12 months. The additional required forms must have every line completed. Make sure a counselor completes and signs name on K12 form. It is the high school staff s responsibility to ensure accuracy of all forms. LACC does not have the clerical staff to check forms. When delivering the additional required forms to LACC please follow these procedures. Place the forms in a large clasp manila envelope in alpha order with each student s packet paper clipped together. (Do not staple) Please attach two copies of the numbered alpha list of students, grade, and their date of birth and 88 Number on the front of the envelope, include Name of School, Section number, and Title of class at top pf page; each student will have a packet of 3 forms.

The envelopes may be brought in any day prior to Friday, August 22,@ noon, that is the final day they will be accepted. Please bring forms earlier if possible. Each student must have the following forms completed to be enrolled in class. Please be sure to check every form for legibility and signatures. Check every line and every box. PLEASE!
