Advising and Assessment Testing

Advising For Distance Education Students

The Distance Education program offers special academic advising for students who plan to fulfill most or all of their degree requirements through distance courses. Distance Education staff and advisors will help you plan your program to ensure that you receive the credits you need for your study interests. We will take you through the registration process, and help ensure that you acquire all books and course materials. We can also serve as contacts in case you have questions or concerns during your course work.

First, we urge you to:

Courses offered for the next quarter are posted about two months before the end of the current quarter, in plenty of time for registration.  If you don't see next quarter's Distance-Ed course schedule here, check back later. (Distance-Ed courses are also posted together with on-campus courses at http://bellevuecollege.edu/schedule/, Look for courses coded OAS, OBS, etc.)

Assessment Testing

Before you can register for Bellevue College credit courses, you must take the English and math assessments or transfer your assessment scores from other schools as a part of the enrollment process. Before you may take the assessment tests for math and English, you must be enrolled at Bellevue College and have received your BC Student Identification Number (SID).

For most students, English and math assessments are taken on campus. Learn more...

If you intend to pursue your degree or certificate entirely online or you are at a great distance from the campus, the English assessment and/or math assessment can be taken at a distance by special arrangement. Contact the Distance Education Office or a Distance-Ed advisor listed below.

Contact Distance Ed Advisors and Staff

We want to help you achieve your goals.  Do not hesitate to telephone or e-mail one of the advisors to have answered any questions about registration or the nature of the courses offered.
