Admission to the College

A minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.00 on a 4.00 scale or General Education Development (GED) certificate with a minimum score of 450, and an ACT composite score of 18 or above or an 940 minimum SAT score (combination of Critical Reading and Math), is required for admission to the College. The cumulative high school GPA is considered for first-time students, while the cumulative college GPA is considered for transfer students with 24 or more transferable credits (defined as any attempted college-level credit with the potential to transfer to the institution). In assessing ACT/SAT scores, the College uses the highest subscores taken from multiple test dates and recalculates a new composite superscore. This superscore is used only for admission to the College and does not pertain to other institutional policies. Certain programs have additional specific criteria for admission. Refer to the respective section in this catalog for any additional requirements. Individuals who are 24 years of age or older are not required to take the ACT for admission. However, an ACT score may be a requirement for admission to individual programs.
