Table 1

Cypress College registration time email confuses students.

Could we ask an identifiable question on the Online Application that asks if they are a Dual Enrollment student? Then A&R could build a specific email for them, rather than getting the general A&R email they receive about registration date & time.

Parents are the main concern

Some parents are not as tech-savvy

VFD is closed when parents gets off work, maybe later hours during registration week?

The dynamic form subject line can be more clear, stating that “CYPRESS COLLEGE DUAL ENROLLMENT SIGNATURE NEEDED” so the student & parent know it’s from Cypress College

Streamline the process:

Manually register all students.
Remove HS counselor signature on Dynamic Form

Table 2

Collaborate with middle schools. Have middle schools assign students an assignment where they need to answer some questions asked in the general student application (i.e. parent education status).

Go to middle schools and have lunch time application workshops
