Forrest Junior College seeks to
enroll students who are
motivated to learn and achieve
and who have a genuine interest
in furthering their education.
Academic qualifications are important, but as important are the motivation
and interest of the applicant. Our applicants are guided into
programs where they will achieve skills leading to their personal and career
objectives.
Those applying for admission to degree or
diploma programs must have a high school diploma or a recognized
equivalency.
Complete an application for
admission form and pay a
non-refundable application fee
of $50.00 (U.S. non-residents
are charged an International
Student Application Processing
Fee of $250.00)
Provide evidence of graduation from high school or its equivalent
(signed statement from student is sufficient for application).
Official transcripts will be requested and received normally during a
student’s first quarter
Undergo
preliminary evaluations (In
some cases, an interview with a program’s coordinator may be required.)
Complete
financial arrangements
While the
basic admission requirement to the College is a high school diploma or
the equivalent, certain programs of study and certain classifications
(e.g., international students) have some additional requirements.
Special program requirements will vary depending upon the area of study
in which the applicant is interested.
Each applicant is given
individual consideration for admission. The decision to admit an applicant
is based upon preliminary evaluations as well as a personal interview and
demonstrated attitude of career readiness. If there is a question as
to the applicant's readiness or motivation, the applicant may be required to
interview with the Admissions Committee. An applicant is refused
admission if, in the judgment of the Admissions Committee, the College is
not able to meet the learning needs or the professional ambitions of an
individual. The Admissions Committee notifies all applicants of
acceptance or denial. The Admissions Committee is composed of the Financial
Aid Officer, Records Officer, Admissions Officer, Allied Health Coordinator,
and the Vice President for Administration and Programs, and others as
determined by the Administration.
A student not currently
enrolled at Forrest Junior College may register for class(es) as a
single subject student. Single subject students are persons
without the intent of completing a program of study. Single
subject students must meet all entrance requirements, and may register
for any course offered by Forrest Junior College provided that they have
taken the necessary prerequisite(s) for the course, unless they may
chose to audit said course.
Any student that has been
withdrawn from the College and desires to return must reapply for
admission. Any re-entering student who has been withdrawn from the
College for longer than two quarters will be required to undergo all
preliminary evaluations. Each re-entering student will be
evaluated by the Admissions Committee to determine their suitability for
reentry based on academic history, general conduct and the meeting of
prior financial obligations. In some instances, the applicant will
be requested to appear before the Admissions Committee. Applicants will
be notified of the decision of the Admissions Committee.
Midterm admission provides
the opportunity to complete 10-12 weeks of study in 5 or 6 weeks and
allows industrious students the opportunity to get a head start in
completing their programs.
