Shared Services Distance Learning

Students who have been placed in a program of study should contact their academic advisor to register for an SSDL course. All other students should contact the Office of Admissions and Records at admissions@danville.edu to register.

Before you can register for SSDL courses, you’ll need to have a completed application for admission on file with DCC’s Office of Admissions and Records. All SSDL courses are listed with a section number beginning with an “S” (e.g., ACC 111-S1) in the online schedule of classes. If the course you need to take is not listed, you may request it by completing our Course Request Form.

The last day to register for an SSDL course is the business day prior to the day the class is scheduled to begin. Registrations are not allowed after an SSDL course has started.

Once you’ve registered for an SSDL course, you can pay for your course(s) online via Nelnet Campus Commerce or by calling DCC’s Cashier’s Office at (434) 797-8418 Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Learn more about DCC's tuition rates and fees.

SSDL courses are eligible for federal financial aid provided the courses are required as part of your program of study. Students who have been placed in a program of study can check with their academic advisor to verify course eligibility.

Textbooks and other course materials may be purchased through the DCC Castle Bookstore both in-person and online. If you are a receiving federal financial aid, you will be able to use award money to purchase course materials. You will need to provide your student ID number for your purchase.

Students will take their proctored exams at the DCC Testing Center, located in the upper-level of the Learning Resources Center (LRC). Students may also request to take their exams online, at another VCCS college, or at an approved location. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a proctored exam through the Testing Center, please email testingcenter@danville.edu or call (434) 797-8404.
