Students who are not physically located in California are not permitted to take distance education classes (fully online or online with required on-site meetings) at CCSF. This does not apply to students located outside of the United States.

Federal regulation requires institutions offering distance education to acquire authorization from any U.S. state in which it “operates.” City College does not have the required permission for students from other states to take classes at City College. This permission is required to maintain eligibility for students of that state to receive Federal Financial Aid.

Until further notice, City College is not filing for authorization to operate in other states. We recommend that students located outside of California who are seeking community college courses look for courses offered from an institution in their own state.

If you have an out-of-state hold on your account or need assistance regarding your residency status for tuition purposes, please contact the Residency Department at resident@ccsf.edu or visit the Residency Virtual Help Counter.

If you believe you have been incorrectly categorized as an Out-of-State student, please contact our Residency Department at resident@ccsf.edu to update your residency status.  For information on how residency is established, documentation required to change your residency status or qualify for non-resident tuition exemption, and access to the Residency Reclassification Request form or AB540 Non-Resident Exemption form, please visit the Residency page.  For assistance, please email resident@ccsf.edu or visit the Residency Virtual Help Counter.

A student may be given a final grade of "I/" Incomplete only if illness or other unavoidable circumstances prevent the student from taking the final examination or satisfying the other requirements in a course. A student must make arrangements for an Incomplete with the instructor for the course.  The instructor determines when the student must submit work to remove the grade of Incomplete. A final grade shall be assigned when the work stipulated has been completed and evaluated. If the student fails to meet the condition(s) of the removal of incomplete or when the time limit for completion has expired, the predetermined grade shall be assigned (i.e. “F” in the case of I/F).

More information regarding an "I/" Incomplete can be found in the .
