Step 2: Apply to Coastline
All new students must apply to Coastline. Students who have had a break in enrollment for 2 semesters or more must re-apply.
- Prior to applying, you may wish to take a couple of moments to review the CCCApply Tutorial (wmv) that provides some important and helpful tips for completion of the application.
- IMPORTANT: Enter the code MIL1 on the Supplemental page of the online application which is your 4-digit program admission designator.
- New Students receive notification about their MyCCC account upon acceptance of their application. This normally takes approximately 2-3 business days from the date the application is submitted.
Apply Now. Applications must be submitted at least 3 business days prior to the registration deadline.
