Important
Due to the college ransomware incident, Starfish is not currently receiving updated data from college systems. Because of this, any changes to your class enrollments after September 12, 2023 do not currently show in the system, and students who were not enrolled in classes by this date cannot access the system.
Overview
Starfish is an online platform that allows Shoreline students connect with a personalized network of advisors, services, and student success professionals at the College. You can use Starfish to find your advisor, make an appointment, and find information about services that will help you achieve your academic goals.
Starfish makes it easy to ask for help when you aren't sure where to start. If you need technical help using Starfish, you can visit the Shoreline Support Center webpage. If you need help enrolling in classes, paying for college, or with basic needs, visit the Current Students webpage.
