One Stop Simplifies Registration

One Stop Registration started earlier this year, running smoothly for two weeks, from July 25-29 and August 1-5 at the Harrington Learning Center. Thanks to all QCC faculty and staff for helping students begin or continue their pathways for success.

Up to 1,100 new and returning students received assistance with registration and enrollment, enjoying the convenience of having all necessary offices operating out of one location. Having financial aid, admissions, and placement tests in one spot helped students realize how simple registration at QCC can be.

Mishawn Davis-Eyene, Director of Admissions, said One Stop Registration was held earlier this year to allow more time for forms to be processed for the fall semester.

“This event allows us to go over the steps with potential students, let them know if there are placement tests they need to complete and help them with forms for financial aid,” she said. “We want to make sure students are successful by starting them on the right level.”

Potential students could print out forms ahead of time to fill out and bring to one-stop registration. Information was made available on the One Stop Registration website with what forms and information was required.

Usually most of these departments require appointments, this event gives students a chance to get everything done at once and simplifies application process. Registering early also gives students a better chance to get the classes they want, as classes fill up as the first day of classes gets closer.

Applying is a two-tier process, Ms. Davis-Eyene said, the first includes applying for QCC, completing placement testing and registering; and the second part is applying for financial aid.
