  4. What is Priority Registration • Priority registration determines when a student registers for classes. • Classes fill up very fast at Delta College so priority registration is very important. • Many factors can help a student gain priority registration like special programs, units completed, and GPA. • However, until the three CORE requirements (Assessment, Orientation, Counseling) are completed then a student cannot receive priority registration. Part 1

  5. Priority Registration determines when a student registers for classes. • Priority Registration dates and times are calculated based on a point system. There are many factors used to determine these dates. • However, majority of the points are based on the calculation of units completed, grade point average, and being identified as member of a “special” group.
