ORCA cards are on sale and available for purchase now through Feb. 17. ORCA cards, the regional transit pass, are available to most students at Shoreline Community College. You can purchase yours by heading to the Cashier’s Office in the second floor of the 5000 building (FOSS). Remember to bring payment, photo ID and proof of registration.
The price of the prepaid cards are subsidized through a program funded by a student fee called the Sustainable Commuting Options Fee (SCOF). The program is intended by student government to help make the program easy to use and available to most students possible.
Shoreline’s ORCA card program is simple:
- For $125, a registered student can buy a $200 ORCA ePurse card.
- The student receives an ORCA card that is immediately usable for as long as there is still money on it.
- The $75 difference is covered by a subsidy funded by the SCOF fee.
An ORCA card is the equivalent of having cash that can be used on all Community Transit, Everett Transit, King County Metro Transit, Kitsap Transit, Pierce Transit, Sound Transit and Washington State Ferries.
For more information on how to get your pass and the guidelines surrounding its use, click here.

Just a quick reminder of the process for students to add/drop classes after the start of the quarter:
Week 1:
- Students are able to register themselves for a class if there are open seats and no waiting list.
- Online registration is open through the last day of the first week of the quarter (add/drop online).
- Students on the waiting list are automatically registered as seats become available, through the third day of the quarter.
- Registering into full and/or waitlisted classes requires an overload slip, emailed permission from the instructor with approval to OVERLOAD, or the signature on a Schedule Change Form, stating their approval to OVERLOAD the class.
- Students are not overloaded into full and/or waitlisted classes with the instructor’s signature alone. It’s important that we know the instructor has agreed to overload the class (possibly ahead of others on the waiting list).
Week 2:
- Instructor’s permission required to add a class, with an overload slip, emailed permission to add, or signature on a Schedule Change Form.
- Online registration and the waiting list are no longer available.
- Students cannot register without instructor’s signature.
- No signature is required to drop a class.
Week 3 & 4:
- Permission of both the instructor and the division dean required to register, with an overload slip, emailed permission to add, or signature on a Schedule Change Form.
- Along with permission to add the class, the instructor must state whether or not student has been attending from the first day/week. This is very important — whether or not the student has been attending from the start of the quarter has an impact on our quarterly enrollment.
- Instructor signature or emailed permission is required to withdraw from a class from the first day of the third week through the first day of the seventh week (W period).
After the W period, withdrawal is no longer done through the registration process. Students must meet with their instructor to discuss a late withdrawal grade of V, Z, NC, or I (entered directly on the grade roster in Instructor Briefcase).
Note: The number of days in each “week” is adjusted for the shorter Summer quarter. Refer to the Important Dates calendar for Summer dates.

Join us this Fri., Jan. 8 from 1-2:30 p.m. in the Workforce Education office (bottom floor of FOSS, 5000 bldg.) for this week’s Roundtable: Get Hired by CSR Marine!
For our immediate area, 2016 is looking to be a huge boating year, and Shilshole Bay will be hopping!
If you like sailing or just working in a boating environment with a casual crew, CSR’s Scott Anderson will be on hand to let you know what it’s all about.
With two boatyards in the greater Seattle area, even during slow times, CSR is always seeking out qualified applicants to fill a variety of roles, from Travelift operators, painters, laminators to office staff, riggers and electronics installers. Scott will let you know how it all works. If you prefer the south end, there are also CSR possibilities in Des Moines.
Also on Friday, we’ll talk a bit about hiring and job trends, with Employment Specialist, Stephanie Tschanz for 2016, and just reconnect from the couple Fridays we were off.
Will be good to see you! As we’re dead-center of High Coffee Season, expect some delectable brew and the usual dunkables.
See you this Friday – and as always, Good Luck Out There!
