A Student Education Plan (SEP) is a document that you and your counselor create together showing the courses and activities planned to reach your academic and career goals.
An SEP should be developed even before you start your first semester at FCC and then updated throughout your enrollment in college.
Fresno City College uses Starfish Degree Planner for Student Education Plans. Visit our Starfish for Students webpage for more information.
An SEP can help ensure you take courses and participate in services that align with your goals to graduate, transfer, and increase your skills for employment.
Abbreviated SEP (SEPA) - If you complete an SEPA, you will have a plan that includes 1-2 semesters of work, and you can receive a priority registration date.
Comprehensive SEP (SEPC) - If you completes an SEPC, you will have a plan that includes everything you need to complete your college goal. You may be eligible for an even earlier registration date once you complete 18 units and have an SEPC.
