Summer Programs

Students who may not meet the admission standards but have the potential and desire to succeed may be offered acceptance through an alternative admissions program.  Students are invited for a testing session where reading, writing, and math skills are assessed. An informational session follows to outline the programs and requirements for acceptance. 
At the conclusion of the testing and information session, all students will be evaluated and either recommended for acceptance into one of the alternative admissions programs or recommended to attend a community college to improve their skills. Students will be admitted based on their successful participation in our programs. Students will be required to begin their matriculation period with a six-week summer program.  Students who successfully complete the six-week summer program will be allowed to enter the College in the upcoming fall.  The following programs are available:

• A.I.D./ACCESS Program
• Developmental Skills Program
