I'm considering Green River Community College and want to know more about the application process. Can I apply online, and if so, what steps do I need to follow?
Yes, you can absolutely apply to Green River College online! Here is a general outline of the steps you would need to follow:
1. Find the Application Form: Start by going to the Green River College website and find the application for admission.
2. Complete the Application Form: Fill out the application form. This will require your basic information such as name, address, and date of birth etc. But you’ll also be expected to provide information about your high school education and any standardized test scores that you have.
3. Submit Your Transcript: You need to provide your high school transcripts and transcripts from any other colleges or universities you have attended. The transcripts have to be official, meaning they need to come directly from your high school or any prior colleges or universities you’ve attended. In some cases, Green River might allow you to self-report your high school grades initially, but you will need to submit an official transcript eventually.
4. Placement Testing: If you're a prospective degree student, you will need to do placement testing, to show your proficiency in English and Math. The placement can be done using high school transcripts, Smarter Balanced Scores, or through other standardized test scores, like SAT or ACT. If you don't have any of these, you may have to take a placement test arranged by the college. Check the college's Testing Center webpage for more specific details.
5. Schedule an Advising Appointment: After you submit your application and placement information, you’ll need to schedule an advising appointment to plan your classes for your first quarter.
6. Register for Classes: After your advising appointment, you'll be able to register for classes via the online student system.
7. Pay Tuition and Fees: Finally, after registering for your classes, you'll see your tuition charges in the online payment system. You'll need to pay these by the college's payment deadlines to secure your spot in the classes you've chosen.
Remember, you can reach out to Green River's admissions office directly if you have any specific questions. They're always there to help prospective students navigate the admissions process. Best of luck with your college journey!
