Students will be referred to the Counseling Office via admissions correspondence to schedule ACCUPLACER placement assessments as necessary.
EVALUATION OF ADMISSION PROCEDURES
The Admission Appeals Committee is to recommend and evaluate admission policies and to review all selective admissions to the institution. The committee serves as a hearing committee for special admission cases such as students who have been suspended from the institution. The Committee meets once per semester during the regular academic year to review admissions procedures. Minutes are kept and an annual report is filed. Emergency sessions are called when necessary. The Committee meets on an as needed basis when dealing with student issues.
