Set Up a Campus Visit
Contact us to set up a friendly, no-pressure, informal campus visit. Our Admissions team will be there to answer questions and show you around the entire campus, and ensure you feel completely comfortable with your choice.
Step 4
Admissions Interview
Once your application has been processed, your Admissions Advisor will contact you to schedule an Admissions Interview when it’s convenient for you. Your interview will take approximately one hour to complete and will include:
- Applicant interview – Your admissions representative will go over a specific set of questions designed to ensure that both school and student are a good fit for each other.
- Entrance Test – Next you’ll take a standard entrance exam. This is not a high pressure exam, but a brief 12 minute test designed to make sure you have the basic problem solving skills needed to succeed in our program.
- Sign Enrollment Agreement – The Admissions staff will prepare this agreement. It outlines the program you will be taking, what it costs, how you will pay for it, and other terms and conditions of enrollment.
- Submit a $150 Registration fee.
Step 5
Financial Arrangements & Missing Documents
Students requiring Financial Aid must meet with a Financial Aid Representative prior to starting school. If you aren’t using Financial Aid, you will need to make payment arrangements with the Student Accounts Representative.
You will need to provide proof of education (your official high school transcripts or GED transcripts with scores) and a valid photo I.D, before the first day of classes.
Cancellation: If all of the steps in the enrollment process are not complete within seven days of the start of term, your enrollment could be cancelled.
