Getting Started

Welcome to Yuba College! We’re thrilled that you’ve chosen to take the first step in your educational journey. Whether you’re a first-time student, returning to continue your education, transferring, or exploring a new career, Yuba College is here to support your goals.

Starting September 18th, Yuba College will launch CCCStart—California Community Colleges’ innovative new enrollment platform. This streamlined application offers enhanced privacy, a refreshed design, and a smoother, more intuitive experience powered by modern technology. CCCStart makes it easier than ever for students to get started at Yuba College.

As part of this transition, “Apply” will be replaced with “Get Started” throughout the Yuba College website. This change better reflects the process—you're not applying to see if you are accepted; you’re actively taking the first step toward enrollment and achieving your aspirations.

If you’re already a Yuba College student, nothing changes for you—no need to reapply or take any action. CCCStart is for new students or those returning after more than a year away.

Congratulations on taking this exciting step—your future starts here! Click “Get Started” and open the door to new opportunities, experiences, and success at Yuba College. We can’t wait to see what you’ll achieve!
