Application for Admission: First Step
To apply to Del Mar College, submit the application for admission by completing the application found at the Apply Texas website (https://www.applytexas.org). Paper applications are available at the Student Enrollment Center two weeks prior to the beginning of each semester.
The following is a general checklist of documents necessary for admission:
- Application for Admission.
- Official high school transcript or High School Equivalency (GED, HiSET or TASC) test scores.
- Official college transcripts, if transferring.
- Proof of Texas residency.
- Texas Success Initiative approved placement examination. First time college students require a completion of a Pre-Assessment Activity prior to registering for the exam. Visit the TSI Information section of the Del Mar College website (https://www.delmar.edu/tsi) for more information.
- Meningitis Vaccine: All incoming students who are 21 years of age or younger will need to show proof of a bacterial meningitis vaccination administered within five years of enrollment.
All admissions documents should be submitted at least two weeks prior to in-person registration and five days prior to online registration to avoid delays.
All information on the application must be true, accurate and complete. Any submission of false information is grounds for rejection of an application, withdrawal of any offer of acceptance, cancellation of enrollment or appropriate disciplinary action.
