Admissions

Admissions standards are relatively amenable in keeping with the spirit of the community college atmosphere. Prospective students will have to fill out the application (available online), submit their official academic transcripts (up to the latest completed academic period) and furthermore take the ACCUPLACER/Computerized Placement Tests required for enrollment in all associate and diploma degree programs.

International students are accepted strictly on the basis that they be studying in the US under an F-1 visa; all other international applicants will be turned down.

Financial Aid

The school is a participating institution in the US Title IV financial assistance system of the federal government, and students at the school are therefore able to apply for such financial aid as available through Pell Grants, Stafford Loans, etc. Within the body of students receiving financial aid, federal grants were the most common form of assistance, followed by state grants and finally institutional grants.
