Adding a Class for Spring Semester? Remember to Pay Your Fees

If you are adding a class for spring semester you need to pay your fees by midnight that day or you'll be dropped.

Students who add a class for spring semester are required to pay the new fees associated with that class by midnight the same day. This includes classes that are added from the wait list. This is part of the San Mateo County Community College District's new student fee payment policy. The policy will help open space in popular classes to students who have paid their fees. Thanks to Meaure G and the addition of more classes coupled with the new fee payment policy, Cañada has reduced the number of students on wait lists for spring semester by nearly 70 percent.

Under the new policy, students waiting for a class now have 24 hours upon notification to sign up. It's important that students check their email daily to determine if they are being allowed into a class from a wait list.
