Guest

A student who is earning credits at Red Rocks Community College to transfer back to their current institution. As a guest student, you will feel very welcomed at RRCC while you complete specific course work for your degree. You will find that RRCC is super affordable with an extremely high quality of education.

  • Get started by completing the free online application.  Use the Create Account option on the Welcome page and continue to complete the full application.
  • Select non-degree seeking under declared programs. Students who are non-degree seeking do not qualify for financial aid.

  • Step 1 - Submit your Prerequisite Override Request to override completed prerequisites needed for courses you are planning to register for. We can use an unofficial transcript to override prerequisites so that you can register for classes on time. Plan ahead! This process can take up to 5 business days.
  • Step 2 - If you plan to graduate from RRCC and want to transfer credits from another institution toward your RRCC certificate or degree program, you can do so by first submitting your official transcript.
    • Once Red Rocks Community College receives your official transcript, we will begin evaluating your transfer credits based on your declared program at the time of evaluation. This process can take up to 30 days but does not need to be completed before you register for classes.
  • To expedite registration, be sure to complete Step 1 if needed.

If you have any questions, please email Student.Records@rrcc.edu.

  • Contact Advising at Advising@rrcc.edu for questions about registration.  You can check with Advising to make sure the classes you take at RRCC meet the proper requirements at your home institution and transfer.  If you have further questions, you are welcome to make an appointment with a pathway advisor.
