Non-degree seeking students must meet the prerequisites, if any, for the courses they wish to take. Your Admissions Counselor will advise on the prerequisites required for your desired courses and review any test scores and/or transcripts and advise whether there are any unmet requirements. Once all requirements are met, you will be admitted to the college.
Your Admissions Coordinator will send you your Academic Advisor’s name and contact information. Your Academic Advisor will work with you to advise you for your first semester classes and discuss any testing requirements.
