How do I apply to Central Virginia Community College?

I'm considering applying to Central Virginia Community College as one of my options after high school. Does anyone know what the application procedure is and if there's anything specific I need to prepare beforehand?

To apply to Central Virginia Community College, the process is fairly straightforward.

1. First, you'll begin by completing the Virginia Community College System application. It's an online form available on the CVCC website.

2. Once you've submitted your application, you'll receive a Student ID number and Username for access to MyCVCC (the school's portal) and your CVCC student email.

3. Next, you'll have to submit official high school or GED transcripts. Any college transcripts from previously attended institutions should also be submitted if you're seeking transfer credit.

4. Placement testing might be necessary for math, English, or both, depending on your high school GPA and any prior college-level courses you have completed. Some students may be exempt from this step based on SAT, ACT, GED, or other test scores, so it's a good idea to check with an admissions officer.

5. You'll also need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) if you plan to apply for financial aid. Use CVCC's school code, 004988, when completing it.

6. Finally, once steps 1-5 are complete, you must attend a mandatory New Student Orientation session before you can register for classes.

It's always a good idea to check directly with the admissions office about the specific documents you will need to submit as part of your application. Take note of application deadlines and avoid waiting until the last minute to apply.

Remember to also seek out help in your high school's guidance counseling office, as they are there to assist you throughout the application process.

I hope this provides a clear step-by-step process! Best of luck with your application.
