I've earned my GED and I'm looking to enroll at Kingsborough Community College. Does anyone know if they accept students through a GED application and what the process is like?
Yes, Kingsborough Community College does accept students who have completed their General Educational Development (GED) diploma. Many community colleges, including Kingsborough, see this as an equivalent to a high school diploma.
The admissions process for GED earners is generally the same as for students with high school diplomas. Here's what the procedure typically looks like:
1. Application Form: You will need to fill out an application form which you can often find on the college's official website.
2. Transcripts or Proof of Diploma: In your application, you'll have to submit your GED scores rather than a high school transcript. You can request these from the official GED Testing Service website.
3. Placement Tests: Just like other applicants, you might need to take placement tests for Math and English unless you have qualifying SAT, ACT, or AP scores to waive them. These tests aren't for admission purposes but for class placement- to help identify the courses that are the best fit for you when you start.
Make sure to check with Kingsborough Community College's admission office for the most accurate and current information. Good luck with your application!
