Admission Classifications
Regular Admission Status
Students who meet all requirements for admission into a selected program and are eligible to take all courses in the program curriculum (provided class pre- and corequisites are satisfied) are granted regular admission status.
Provisional Admission Status
Students who do not meet all requirements for regular admission into a selected program are granted provisional admission status. Provisionally admitted students may take learning support classes, and certain specified occupational courses as long as class pre- and corequisites are satisfied. All certificate, diploma, and associate degree program students initially admitted on a provisional basis must have satisfactorily completed the necessary prerequisite and learning support coursework in order to progress through the State Standard Curriculum.
Special Admission/Non-Degree Seeking Status
Non-degree/diploma seeking applicants may be given special admission status within the following parameters:
- Student will be classified as non-award-seeking at time of entry.
- Student may receive up to 17 semester credit hours toward a specific Chattahoochee Technical College degree/diploma program while in this status.
- Prerequisite and co-requisite course requirements apply when selecting courses in this status.
- Assessment may be required.
- Students admitted under special admission/non-degree seeking status are ineligible for all forms of financial aid.
Special admission/non-degree seeking status students may apply for regular admission status for a future term; however, the number of hours taken under this status in no way waives the requirements of the regular admission process. It is the student's responsibility to change from special admission/non-degree seeking status to regular admission.
Transient Status
Students who submit a Transient Agreement Letter from their home institution are granted Transient admission status. The Transient Agreement Letter should list the courses the student is approved to take. A current Transient Agreement Letter is required for each term of enrollment.
