From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Glendale Community College (aka GCC) is a community college in Glendale, California, USA. It was founded to serve the needs of the people in the Glendale Union High School District which included La Crescenta, Glendale, and Tujunga. The school was officially founded as Glendale Junior College and from 1927 to 1929 conducted classes in the buildings of Glendale Union High School at Broadway and Verdugo in the City of Glendale. In 1929 the junior college moved to the Harvard School plant of the Glendale Union High School District where it remained until 1937. In this year a new plant, part of the present one, was completed and occupied. The year before, in 1936, the Glendale Junior College District was dissolved as such and became a part of the new Glendale Unified School District. The name of the school was changed to Glendale College in 1944. On July 1, 1970 Glendale College became a part of the Glendale Junior College District. On April 20, 1971 the Board of Education adopted a resolution changing the District name to Glendale Community College District.

On November 3, 1980, Glendale voters approved a measure to establish separate Boards. In April 1981, the new members were added to the Board. The separation resulted in the creation of a Board of Trustees solely responsible for the governance of the Glendale Community College District.

Best Answer

You probably do need to take an assesment test where they usually check your math,reading and writing levels.This is done first because they determine which classes you qualify for.In my college at least I was able to skip the reading class because I got a high score on it. So the better you do on those tests the more classes you will skip.Once you have taken these tests, you can then register for your classes.I would check the website of your school for better info: Here the link for information for new students: http://www.glendale.edu/new/index.htm What I told you is not from the same college but I assume it would be the same.If that doesn't solve your questions then go to your college's advisors or counselor to answer them.
