Valley Now! Enrollment Process
We’re so excited that you are interested in the Valley Now! enrollment process. Please follow the steps below to start the enrollment process.
Note: Valley Now! does not provide, distribute, or purchase course materials, including textbooks. Please contact your school to see if materials are available to you at no cost and how to obtain those materials.
* The Valley Now! program currently only includes selected courses in partnership with participating schools and districts. Our program does not currently offer all courses seen in the Academic Catalog. Selecting non-partnership courses may result in fees being charged to your student account.
Create an OpenCCC.net account.
- Please click here to watch a video to assist you. A CCCID will be provided after creating an account. Your CCCID is not your SBVC student ID#.
Apply to SBVC.
- Sign into the OpenCCC account you created and click on "Start a New Application" for the term you wish to take classes. Next, you will automatically be sent a confirmation email confirming your application. Your 8-digit confirmation # is not your SBVC student ID#. Please save your confirmation number. You will be asked for it in the next step.
- You will receive a second email within the next business day welcoming you to SBVC. This second email will also contain your 7-digit SBVC student ID#, which will be used for the rest of your SBVC academic journey.
Fill out the Valley Now! Concurrent Enrollment Packet Questionnaire for the semester you would like to take classes.
- Currently, we have forms for the 2024FA semester available.

Concurrent Enrollment forms within 10 business days (do not include weekends, holidays, or days our office is closed) of completing the questionnaire.

SUBMITTING DOCUMENTS
- Sign and upload ALL of the Concurrent Enrollment Packet forms that were emailed to you. Failure to sign and upload all documents may result in delays in the enrollment process.
