Step 1: Know When Registration Opens

Visit the Registration webpage to find out when registration begins for the upcoming semester.

Step 2: Check for Holds

Before registering, check your account for any holds. Holds may prevent you from enrolling or completing other important processes. You can view holds in Student Planning through the OCCC Portal.

Step 3: Meet with an Advisor

All first-time OCCC students, including new and transfer students, are required to meet with an Academic Advisor. Your advisor will review your transcripts and help you choose the correct courses.

Step 4: Complete the Financial Responsibility Agreement

Carefully review and sign the Financial Responsibility Agreement for each semester you plan to enroll. For questions, contact the Bursar’s Office at (405) 682-7825.

Step 5: Plan Your Schedule

Use your degree plan in the My Progress tab in Student Planning to choose your courses.

Color Guide:

  • Green = Completed or in-progress requirements
  • Yellow = Planned courses
  • Red = Requirements not yet started or planned

You can also review course descriptions to check prerequisites and corequisites.

Step 6: Register for Classes

Once your schedule is planned, you are ready to register. Before registration can be completed, make sure:

  • All holds have been removed
  • Course prerequisites have been met
  • Your Financial Responsibility Agreement has been completed

Step 7: Confirm Your Registration

After registering, your courses should change from yellow to green in Self-Service. You should also receive an email from Registration confirming activity on your account.
If they are still yellow, scroll up to the top of the page to check to see if there is a warning box in the upper right corner. If there is, please call the phone number listed to inquire about your hold. 

If you do not receive this email, there may have been an issue with your registration.
