How to Register Your Partner Student Account

The first and most important step to start using the tools on CaliforniaColleges.edu is to register your free account. If you’re a 6th-12th grade student enrolled in a public school district in California, you can register an account on CaliforniaColleges.edu.

If you haven’t already, we recommend using our District Lookup Tool to make sure you’re able to register for the type of account that’s available to you. If you used the District Lookup Tool and were redirected here, that means you’re a student enrolled in a Partner District and you can continue on to the steps below.
