Admissions Categories

Minimum admissions requirements are established for each program. Students are admitted to a technical college in one of the following categories: Regular, Special, or Transient.

Regular Status

Students who meet all requirements for admission into a selected program and are eligible to take all courses in the program curriculum are granted regular admission status.

 

Special Admit Status (Non-Credential Seeking)

Applicants who wish to take credit coursework, but are not seeking a certificate, diploma, or associate degree are granted special admit status. The following specifics define the parameters of this status:

  1. May apply up to a maximum of 25 quarter or 17 semester credit hours into a specific program for credential-seeking purposes after achieving regular admit status. The number of hours taken as a special admit student in no way waives the requirements of the regular admission process.
  2. May enroll in classes only on a space-available basis.
  3. Should adhere to the specific institutional prerequisite requirements when selecting courses.
  4. Will not be eligible for any financial aid.

Transient Status

Students who submit a Transient Agreement Letter from their home institution are granted Transient admission status. The Transient Agreement Letter should verify that the student is in good standing and should list the courses the student is eligible to take. A current Transient Agreement Letter is required for each term of enrollment.
