6. Send your Final Documents

To finalize your admission we need your final documents. This may include:

  • Test scores (ACT, SAT, or Accuplacer)
  • Concurrent credit transcripts or other college transcript

Your high school counselor or the university you received previous credit with can assist you with getting your transcripts.

 

7. Request Accommodations If You Need Them

Students must self-disclose their disability status and formally seek adjustments through the Student Success & Disability Services Coordinator. Requests for accommodations should be initiated in a timely manner to allow for the coordinator of services with faculty and staff. Accommodations are not retro-active, therefore students are encouraged to request accommodations and meet with the Student Success & Disability Services Coordinator prior to the start of classes or early in the semester if they suspect an accommodation to be necessary.
