Registration for Courses:

Distance Learners must first complete the Quinebaug Valley Community College Admissions Application and be admitted to the College prior to registering for a Distance Learning Course.  Upon acceptance, students will be given a Banner ID number and assigned an adviser.  Distance Learning students must contact an adviser by email before registering for courses.  If you are uncertain about who to contact, send your email inquiry to information@qvcc.commnet.edu .  First time students will be unable to register without advisor permission.  Your instructor's name or an advisor's name and email address will be listed in the course description or on the College's Distance Learning web site.

There are several ways you can access the admissions application: 

1. Online at www.qvcc.commnet.edu/admissions.html.  Follow instructions, including payment of the $20.00 application fee by credit card.  Online applications are accepted only until certain dates in the semester.  Please check the website for deadline dates.
