Admission Requirements
VC has an “open” admission policy which ensures that all persons who can benefit from higher education have an opportunity to do so. The admission policy does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, national origin, marital status, religion, disability, age, sexual orientation or gender identity. The admission policy, procedures and decisions of VC are managed by both the administration and faculty.
A semester hour credit student may be admitted to VC through one of the following categories: Graduation from an accredited high school, General Education Development (G.E.D.) certificate, transfer, dual credit/concurrent enrollment, foreign student, continuing education (non-credit), or individual approval.
To be admitted to VC, students must submit an application for admission and present either transcripts or G.E.D. test scores. Upon receipt of the appropriate documents listed, the applicant will be notified of his/her acceptance. Admission to the college does not mean admission to programs which have more stringent admission requirements due to standards established by outside accrediting agencies. See Policy Manual, FB (LEGAL), FB (LOCAL)
Generally, courses (non-credit) taught through Continuing Education have no admission requirements, although some programs may require admittance or specific admission criteria.
