You can complete all the Steps to Enroll online, on your own time, from anywhere! If you’d like help with any of the admissions steps, the SPSCC Outreach Team is here to support you. We have three ways that you can receive assistance with:

Come to the Welcome Center

The SPSCC Welcome Center is located on the Olympia Campus in Bldg. 22. The Welcome Center is open Monday through Thursday between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. (excluding holidays and campus closures) for drop-in assistance with any of the admissions steps. We have computers and resources to help get you amped about being an SPSCC student! Our friendly Outreach staff can help you with any or all of the admissions steps and help troubleshoot if you are stuck along the way.

Come to a Next Steps Workshop

Next Steps Workshops have all the same services as the Welcome Center, but they are offered as small group sessions in the late afternoon during the first two weeks of new student registration and the last two weeks before the admissions deadline for the upcoming quarter. An Outreach Specialist will help everyone in the group through the admissions steps from wherever they are at. You can RSVP for a workshop by using the schedule below and selecting “Next Steps Workshop” on the day you want to attend.
