If you have never taken credit courses at Waubonsee before, completing the FREE New Student Application gets the enrollment process started. Once you submit the form, you'll receive a student ID/X-number and directions regarding your next steps to course registration.

Do NOT complete this form if you:
  • have ALREADY recently completed/submitted an application. This increases processing times. Call Admissions at (630) 466-5756 to check your application status.
  • are taking only noncredit (Workforce Education/Professional Development, Adult Education) courses. Instead, visit our Course Registration page.
  • are an international student (I-20). Learn more about the enrollment process for international students.
If you are currently living outside of the United States, use a paper version of the New Student Application (pdf).
