FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
STUDENT FAQS
How Do I Know If My Credits Transfer?
Please consult the Alabama Transfers website for a degree guide to the university you plan to transfer to. Alabama Transfers only provides transfer guides to schools within the State of Alabama. For questions about transferring to a school in another state, please visit that university’s website and look over their requirements. Each university should have an Academic Catalog that you can view requirements. alabamatransfers.com
What Are My Degree Requirements?
Students can view their degree requirements through their MyESCC account.
How many credits do I need to take each semester to be a full-time student?
Full-time students may register for 12-18 credits during the semester. While students can register for 12 credits, students planning to graduate in two years should take more than 12 in most programs each semester. Students wishing to register for more than 18 credits must obtain approval for the overload from the Dean of Instruction.
How do I purchase books?
Students can purchase or rent textbooks through the ESCC or AAC Bookstore, operated by BBA Corp. For the Enterprise campus, the ESCC Bookstore has the ALL-IN Textbook Rental Program that allows students to rent their textbooks at a much lower price than when textbooks are purchased. The textbook rental rate is $25 per credit hour and will be billed to your student account at registration. learn more at escc.edu/all-in.
If you choose to opt out of the ALL-IN Textbook Rental Program, you can:
- Come inside the bookstore to purchase and pick up textbooks in person
- Purchase online at escc.edu/bookstore and pick up in the bookstore (You must create an account once you go to the website.)
- Purchase online at escc.edu/bookstore and have books shipped (You must create an account once you go to the website.)

What if I need a laptop for my classes?
If a student needs a computer to complete their assignments for their courses (in-person/online/hybrid), ESCC has laptops available to be checked out. These laptops are to only be used for school-related purposes, and students will be held personally responsible for any actions or compromised information resulting from the loss, theft, or misuse of the College-owned laptops. As there are a limited number of laptop computers available from Boll Weevil Central each semester, the students must do the following:
- The student in need must complete a laptop request form at escc.edu/laptop.
- Sign and abide by the ESCC Laptop Loan Program Agreement and Information Technology Policies on Computer Use and Internet Access forms.
Laptops will be inspected each semester during the final examination week and must be returned immediately following the end of the semester.
How do I get a Parking Permit / Student ID?
Parking permits and Student IDs can be picked up at the Campus Police office, located in Wallace Building on the Enterprise campus and the ATTC Building on the Ozark campus.
Before picking up a parking permit, students must complete the Student Vehicle Registration Form at escc.edu/campus-police or at escc.edu/parking-permit. Students can include up to five vehicles on the parking permit form to receive parking permits.
How do I change my program of study?
Please contact the Office of the Registrar directly to update concentrations. Graduation requirements and sending transcripts are also through the Registrar. Please see anyone in the Student Center or email advising@escc.edu for questions regarding your academic success.

How do I find my advisor and what is an academic advisor?
Academic advisors assist you with selecting the classes you need each semester so you do not waste time and money. You can find your assigned advisor by logging into your MyESCC account. If you log in and do not see an assigned advisor, you can do two things: email advising@escc.edu or request advising assistance by filling out the online advising form.
When is the advising and registration period open and how do I prepare?
Please check the Academic Calendar for registration dates.
To register for classes, you must first be cleared to enroll by your assigned faculty or staff advisor. If you do not have a faculty or staff advisor, your student success advisor can clear you to enroll. Once cleared you can log into your MyESCC account to register for classes. Please contact your advisor for more assistance.
How do I register for courses? When is the deadline to make changes to my schedule?
All add/drop deadlines are listed on the academic calendar. During the first two days of classes, students can add/drop courses through their MyESCC account by selecting REGISTRATION and then DROP/ADD CLASSES option. There is a restricted add/drop period if you want your money back for a class. After that date, students can still drop classes, but they aren’t able to add classes. No student is permitted to add or drop a course after the deadline unless certain circumstances permit an exception. A student may withdraw from a course after the add/drop deadline. (Please refer to the academic calendar for specific dates.) The course will show on the student’s transcript with a “W.”
What is Priority Registration?
For a student who has completed 30+ credit hours at the time of registration, they are considered priority students and are able to register earlier. See dates for priority registration on the academic calendar.
Can I repeat a course?
Yes, you can repeat a class or classes for a better grade; however, only the last enrollment and grade will be used in computing the cumulative grade point average, regardless of whether it was an improvement. Courses must be repeated at ESCC for the grade to be replaced in GPA calculation.
How can I order my transcripts?
Students can request unofficial transcripts through their MyESCC account. Official transcripts must be ordered through the College’s transcript service, Parchment. Steps on how to order official transcripts can be found at escc.edu/transcripts.
How do I check my financial status?
- Visit www.escc.edu
- Select MyESCC in the top left corner of the page
- Select Student and log in to MyESCC
- Select Financial Aid
- Select Financial Aid Status
- Select on “Unsatisfied Student requirements”
- Select on “awarded” to see financial aid awards.
How do I log into Canvas?
We have changed to a new Canvas platform. You will need to login with a new alabama.edu email address. An escc.edu email will not work. You will also need to login to the new Canvas platform (alabama.instructure.com) not the old Canvas (escc.instructure.com). Before contacting the ESCC IT Helpdesk, please follow these steps to access your Canvas account:
Step 1: New Email Address:
- You should have received an email (usually at your personal email address) that asked you to claim your new alabama.edu email. Please review your emails to locate that claim email notice. When you claim the new email account, you will set up a new password. You must claim this email before you can login to Canvas or other ESCC platforms.
- If you have claimed your new alabama.edu email but do not remember your password, reset your password. See how to do that here.
- Go to escc.edu/myescc to log in to the new Canvas. You will need to click on the “MyESCC” button to find the Canvas link. Please login for the first time from a computer (not a phone) using the Google Chrome browser. It may require you to complete an authentication process. You must use your new alabama.edu email and password to login, see step 1 above. See how to access the new Canvas here.
- If you are not able to log in, here are some potential causes:
- You are trying to login using your ESCC email and not the new alabama.edu email.
- You are trying to login to the old Canvas. The url escc.instructure.edu is the old site and alabama.instructure.edu is the new site.
- Your old ESCC email credentials are cached in your browser or saved in your sign ins and your computer thinks you are trying to use the old credentials. Clear your browser cache and be sure you are at the new Canvas using new alabama.edu credentials. You can also open a new browser or use incognito mode to login in and bypass your old escc.edu email credentials.
- You do not remember your correct password and need a reset. See step 1 above.
- You are a recent student and have not been updated in our Canvas system. This process normally takes 24 hours but may take longer if you were added on a Friday.
- If you are not able to log in, here are some potential causes:
