Student Admissions
Policy
As a member of the North Carolina Community College System, 鶹Ƶ operates under an “open door” admissions policy. Open door admissions means, “Any person who is a high school graduate or at least 18 years old has the opportunity to pursue the various educational opportunities that are offered by institutions in the system”. Special admission requirements, such as educational qualifications, physical abilities, assessment scores and State Board policy restrictions, are attached to certain curriculums. Applicants scoring below specified minimums on entrance exams will be counseled and required to enroll in classes designed to eliminate their admission deficiencies.
It is the policy of the Board of Trustees of 鶹Ƶ to encourage young people to complete high school before seeking admission to the College.
