Enrollment Conditions

1. If the desired course is to be used as a prerequisite for another course, then the student may take the course under our non-credit option. Make sure you register on this page for the class. Registration from this page puts you under the COD admin account, which ensures your counselor has access to your grades and will be able to transfer them into the COD database. All the lessons, homework, solution manual, tests and quizzes are online, so there are no extra textbook fees. Payment Plan Available

COD requires:
A Proctored Final for Elementary Algebra and above.
Students obtain at least a 70% on the final to get a C or better in the class.

The proctored final can be taken at the COD PACE center - codpace@collegeofthedesert.edu (760-776-7420)
EOP students can take the proctored final at the EOP office, please contact: Carol Lasquade < clasquade@collegeofthedesert.edu>

2. If the desired course (Intermediate Algebra or higher) is to be used to meet the math requirement for graduation at COD and/or transfer, then the desired course must be taken under our UMass Global (regionally accredited(WSCUC)) credit option. The student will receive semester credits for the class, and the transcript will come directly from UMass Global. (Westcott Courses is the teacher on record, and thus does not appear on the transcript.) All the lessons, homework, solution manual, tests and quizzes are online so there are no extra textbook fees.

EOP students can take the proctored final at the EOP office, please contact: Carol Lasquade < clasquade@collegeofthedesert.edu>

Note: Intermediate Algebra can be used towards graduation at COD, but it is not a high enough level to use for transferring to a 4 year university.
College Algebra or Introduction to Statistics can be used to meet your math requirement for a 4 year degree, and these courses under our UMass Global credit option are transferable to a CSU, UC or other 4 year university. Some majors require Statistics, so check with your counselor to see which class is best for your major.

Once you fill out the one page form and enroll, you can log in and start the class.
