General Admission Requirements

Note: For specific program admissions requirements, see that section under the individual program in the “Academic Programs” section of this catalog.

The applicant must be a high school graduate recognized by the U.S. Department of Education or possess the recognized equivalent of a high school diploma. For more information on obtaining a GED, please go to www.ged.com or contact the local Board of Education.

The applicant must provide documentation of completed graduation from high school or college in the form of a valid high school diploma or an earned college degree higher than a diploma. Acceptable documentation includes an official transcript of official documentation which confirms that the student meets or exceeds the academic achievement equivalent to a high school diploma in the USA. All documents from foreign countries must be translated into English and evaluated to be equivalent or higher than a USA high school certificate by a credential evaluation service, which is a member agency of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES), subject to the approval of the College. It is expected that all official documentation be in place before the start of the program. Any exceptions must be cleared by the Admissions Committee.

Candidates for all programs must:

  • Be 18 years of age or older at the time candidates start their program of study.
  • Complete an application.
  • Interview with an Admissions Advisor and/or other administrative staff (online students conduct interviews remotely).
  • Meet all financial obligations.
  • Accepted applicants must agree to and sign the Enrollment Agreement along with any other required admissions documents.
  • Be enrolled in one of the College’s nursing programs to attend any nursing course or program.
