State residency for tuition purposes is now determined by the Residency Determination Service (RDS). The Residency Certification Number (RCN) you receive will be used to complete your CCC Application for Admission. Keep this number in a safe place – you will need it later! This step can take up to 30 minutes to complete, so be sure you have enough time to complete it.
Steps to Apply for New and
Returning Students
Whether you are a new student or returning to CCC to complete a degree, diploma, or certificate, we welcome you to Yeti Nation!

Choosing a major…
What does CCC offer?
CCC offers a variety of associate degrees, diplomas, and certificates. When completing your admissions application, you must choose a program of study which will allow us to pair you with an academic advisor. (Programs of study can be changed at a later date).
Still unsure?
Choosing your major can be a stressful and difficult decision, but a career assessment can help! CCC has a free assessment tool to determine your interests and strengths to help match you with a major we offer.
