FRequentLy asked questIons

Ihaveaquestionandwouldliketospeakwithsomeone.WhocanIcall?We want to hear from you and are happy to answer any questions you might have. Give our office a call at 503-788-6266, Monday through Friday from 9am to 4pm.

HowlatecanIregister?You can register online through MyPCC or in person as late as the first day of class, but by waiting you run the risk of the class either being filled or being cancelled and not knowing about the cancellation.

IsthereanageminimumforpeopletakingCommunityEducationclasses?Our classes are geared toward an adult audience and our minimum age is 16. However, in certain cases younger students are permitted in our classes. Contact the Community Education Programmer for the subject area your class falls under for special approval.

Isthereawaitlistforclassesthatarefull?PCC has an automatic waitlist system for most classes. If the class is full and you put your name on the waitlist, you will receive a waitlist number. If a space opens up in the class, you will be automatically registered for the class. You will receive electronic confirmation that you have been placed in the class ONLY via your MyPCC account. If you are moved into the class, you are officially registered and responsible for paying for the class.

WhatifIhavetomissaclass?Missing a class once in awhile is okay. We know students who take our classes have very busy schedules and vibrant lives! Because our classes are non-credit, instructors generally do not take attendance. Please keep in mind that you will not be automatically dropped from the course if you miss the first class. You will need to file an add/drop form to avoid paying for the class. (See refund policy above.) It is not necessary to contact your instructor if you plan to be absent from class.

HowdoIpayformyclass?If you prefer to use a credit or bank card, you can do so by calling 503-977-4234 or online at www.pcc.edu/pccpay. You can also mail your payment in the form of a check to: PCC-Business Office, PO Box 19000, Portland, OR, 97280-990. You are responsible to ensure that your account is paid in full even if you do not receive a bill.

WillIreceivearegistrationconfirmationorbill?Confirmation of class registration is assumed once you register. You will not be sent written confirmation. Access to your class schedule and bill is available online using MyPCC. PCC does not bill daily, so you may or may not receive a bill before class begins. If you registered online, be sure to monitor your MyPCC email account for your PCC e-bill notification.

DoIhaveaPCCemailaccount?Yes. Every student at PCC has a MyPCC account that includes an email address. To log on, go to www.pcc.edu/mypcc. Contact the PCC help desk at 503-977-8200 to find out your user name and password.

Isthereadiscountforseniors?If you are 62 years of age or over when classes begin, you are eligible for receive a 50% tuition discount on credit and non-credit classes. The tuition discount does not apply to lab and class fees, and out-of-state or CEU tuition. Be sure to indicate your eligibility when you register. Seniors also receive a 50% discount on monthly and term parking passes.

HowdoIknowwhichlanguageclassistherightlevelforme?If you are unsure of the appropriate level, first register for the class you think best fits your skills level and attend the first class to assess your comfort level. If you need to change levels you can do so by following the add/drop procedure. Feel free to contact us if you need more assistance.
