  • Tips for Applying

    • If you have a Social Security Number be sure to put it in with no dashes, type in numbers only (don't forget to click the bubble that says Social Security Number on the top)
    • If you do not have a Social Security Number just click that you do not have one on the little box towards to bottom of the page. 
    • Make sure when using an email you use an email that is not your .org (Edison) email.
    • Be sure to remember/write down the username and password that you create for yourself when you get to that point.
    • If you would like to take a picture of the CCCID feel free but remember this is something different than your Delta ID (CCC Apply is a website that allows for you to apply to any California Community College and this is an ID that shows that you have set up an account for this website).
    • Be sure to put the correct enrollment status saying you are a first time college student and you are graduating May 26th, 2021.
    • Please be sure to input your most updated transcript info.
    • When selecting the college please look for San Joaquin Delta College (takes awhile to find it but it is there).
    • Please put Fall 2020 for enrollment and select a major (do not choose undecided, even if you are, just choose something that you are interested in).
