What you can do:
Register for Fall
-
Register for your classes on the first day of the Fall registration cycle, June 22, 2009. The earlier DSPS is aware of the classes you are taking, the sooner we can plan for your authorized support services.
-
Schedule an appointment with a DSPS counselor.
-
Because counseling hours are limited during the summer, you can also get counseling services in Danner 205 for returning students and Danner 206 for new students, to plan Fall classes. Use the following link for more information about making appointments from General Counseling:

A Special Message To Students
Due to the California State budget crises, DSPS programs across the state are facing the possibility of unprecedented decreases in funding. These cuts may negatively impact the level of services that we have been fortunate enough to provide in the past.
While we are unable to say at this time exactly what changes will occur, it appears that there will be reductions in most of the DSPS student support services. Staff is working this summer to develop processes and priorities to maximize the resources available and to minimize the impact on students. We appreciate your patience.
