Next Steps for Admitted Students

Here are your next steps
-
Complete Orientation

Meet With Your Advisor
Your advisor is your academic guide through college. Advisors help you explore your academic interests to determine which courses you should take next for your program. Your personal academic advisor will be assigned based on your academic and career pathway or program, and will help you register for classes in MyCollege (login required). Learn more about class options and how to read the class schedule.

Pay for Your Classes
Check your financial aid application status, find your balance, and pay your bill in MyCollege.
Review dates and deadlines for payment. If you owe at least $200, you can sign up for the tuition payment plan.
Apply for scholarships through Central Piedmont.
