WHY ARE SENIOR GRADES IMPORTANT?
1. SELECTIVE COLLEGES REQUIRE 1ST SEMESTER GRADES FOR ADMISSION
2. STATE UNIVERSITIES MAY REQUEST 1ST SEMESTER GRADES BEFORE MAKING AN ADMISSION DECISION
3. ALL SCHOOLS REVIEW FINAL SENIOR GRADES AND CAN REVOKE THEIR OFFER OF ADMISSION IF ACADEMIC GRADES HAVE DECLINED SIGNIFICANTLY
4. MAY DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY FOR BRIGHT FUTURES SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
WHY CHOOSE STATE/COMMUNITY COLLEGE?
• May be close to home, lower cost, smaller classrooms
• Admission based on Regular high school diploma. Apply by January for admissions and scholarships!
• Placement tests help with level placement (i.e. college credit vs. remedial non-credit class). PERT used unless exempted by SAT/ACT scores.
• SAT: 440 verbal and 550 math - ACT: 17 English, 19 reading, 21 math
• PERT: Reading 106, Writing 103, Math 114 (Intermediate Alg) OR 123 (College Alg)
• Students who take college prep courses in high school are more likely to be successful on the tests and not need remediation .
WHY CHOOSE STATE/COMMUNITY COLLEGE?
Two Primary Pathways
• Associate of Arts (AA) degree = guaranteed admission to state university (not necessarily university or program of your choice-) acceptance of 60 credit hours towards your BA/BS degree and junior standing. You need to know your major, pre-requisite requirements, deadlines, etc.
• Associate of Science (AS) or other certificate = training programs to earn certificates for world of work.*high school vocational classes taken for college credit may only be applied to this degree.
• TCC’s Previews– check website for dates and times. Features information on admissions, scholarships, financial aid, degree and workforce programs, campus activities, information on Disability Support Services, and more.
