Office of Outreach
You can speak with our counselors by telephone, in-person, or Zoom videoconferencing.
NEW STUDENTS: We recommend that you complete orientation first, before you make an appointment with a counselor. The orientation will answer many of your initial questions about classes, registration, and related topics, and fulfill your requirement for priority registration.
For general enrollment or Promise questions, please send an email to outreach@deanza.edu.
