How do I register for classes?

Step 1 – Find the classes you want:

Step 2 – Find your student ID
If you have attended TNCC or any other community college credit or non-credit classes, please click here to find your student identification number (called SIS ID or EMPL ID).

OR:
If you have never attended any community college in Virginia, please fill out the short application (see link below) and receive your student identification number (called SIS ID or EMPL ID). Be sure to select “Non-credit” and write down your ID number when your application is successful; you will need it when you register.  You will also see a username and password – please disregard as it is only needed for credit courses at the college.  Simply go to Print Page and Finish.
