An associate degree is an undergraduate degree awarded after a course of post-secondary study lasting two to three years. It is a level of qualification above a high school diploma, GED, or matriculation, and below a bachelor’s degree.

Admissions 

The step-by-step guide to begin your path to academic success for an associate degree is as follows:

  • Meet with a Recruitment Coordinator (WemzyXpress).
  • Apply for admission.
  • Mail or hand-deliver an official copy of your high school transcript(s) to the college office of records and registration.
  • Complete the New Student Orientation.
  • Determine your placement test options.
  • Identify financial resources and apply for financial aid.
  • Schedule your appointment with an Academic and Career Advisor.

International Students

International Students follow a slightly different admission process:

  • Meet with a Recruitment Coordinator (WemzyXpress).
  • Complete and submit the application for admission.
  • Submit all previous school documents: Transcript(s), and results of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). Countries that use the English Language as their first language for studies may not be required to submit a TOEFL score.
  • Transcripts from colleges outside the United States must be submitted to a college-recognized evaluation service for evaluation and transfer credit recommendations.
  • International transfer students are also required to have their current institution complete the F-1 Transfer clearance form.
  • Submit your financial certification forms (bank statement and an affidavit of support from your sponsor).
  • Receive your form I-20 (if given admission) and pay your I-901 SEVIS Fee.
  • Fill out the DS-160 Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application form and pay the Visa application fees to schedule an interview at the American Embassy. Note: Fees differ for each country.
