Registering for college without choosing a program

The Springboard to a DCS pathwayallows you to register for college without choosing a program of study right away. It offers courses common to all programs, program-specific courses, orientation activities, etc.

A person may be registered for the Springboard to a DCS path for no more than three consecutive terms.
