Senior Cycle Registration Steps

Some programs have a required membership fee that must be submitted before you can register in the class. For example, AACC’s senior program requires students to pay a Senior Cycle Fee once per quarter. Please follow these steps:

  1. To add the membership fee, locate the "Form or Membership" section and select the Start button next to the form/membership. The next page will either show the form that needs to be completed or the membership fee to be submitted to the visitor’s shopping cart. NOTE: The Senior Cycle fee will be attached to the first class that you register for during the term.
