CCCApply ID.me Verification
If you need to verify your identity with the Admissions & Records office, the fastest
method is via ID.me in your CCCApply account. Opting out of the ID.me process will
dramatically slow down your admissions process and manual processing can take up to
four weeks. If verifying with Admissions & Records, you are required to meet with
a staff member either in person or via Zoom appointment.
To schedule a zoom ID me appointment please visit:
PC ID.me Appointments
To verify identity, you will be asked to provide at least two (2) forms of identification,
one (1) must be a photo ID. If you choose to return to your CCCApply account and complete
the ID.me process, please contact Admissions & Records for further instructions.
Certain populations of students won't be able to use ID.me:
No valid identity documentation from country of origin
No permanent address (housing insecure/homeless)
No internet access or a smartphone (incarcerated)
Minors
ID.me enhancement in progress that may make this tool available in the future. The
enhancement will not support foster youth or juvenile justice students who are wards
of the court.
For students who aren't able to use ID.me, there will be 24/7 student support that
will allow you to connect via live chat to verify your identity. You will also be
able to verify in person with SAC Admissions and Records. Your verified status will
last for one year.
For assistance with
ID.me
, please contact the helpdesk at
