I'm planning to apply to Gateway Community College and noticed there's a BOR application. Can anyone shed some light on what the BOR application involves and how to access it?
The BOR application stands for "Board of Regents". At Gateway Community College, like all Connecticut Community Colleges, the BOR application is the standard method of applying for admission.
Here are the general steps:
1. Visit the home page of Gateway Community College.
2. Look for a button or link that says "Apply Now" or "Admissions".
3. Clicking on this should direct you to the BOR application portal.
4. Create an account if you're a new user. If you've previously created an account, you can log in.
5. Follow the instructions and prompts to fill out the application form with your personal information, academic history, and planned course of study. Remember, honesty is crucial here – all of your information will be verified.
6. Apply electronically. You might also need to submit supplemental materials, like your high school transcript or GED certificate.
A specific thing to note: There may be an application fee involved that you would need to pay at the time of submission. However, fee waivers are often available for eligible students.
Keep in mind that once you submit your application, the review process may take a few weeks. You should receive an acknowledgment email confirming the receipt of your application. During this time, the admissions office may contact you if they need additional information. It's always a good practice to check in periodically to make sure your application is on track.
Good luck with your application process!
