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 (e.g., are a graduating high school senior and have submitted an in-progress high school transcript) for regular admission into a selected program are granted provisional admission status.

Special Admission/Non-Degree Seeking Status

Non-degree/diploma seeking applicants may be given special admission status within the following parameters:

  1. Student will be classified as non-award-seeking at time of entry.
  2. Student may receive up to 17 semester credit hours toward a specific Chattahoochee Technical College degree/diploma program while in this status.
  3. Prerequisite and co-requisite course requirements apply when selecting courses in this status.
  4. Assessment may be required.
  5. 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.
