Admissions process at Truman College?

Hey fellow seniors! Anyone here considering applying to Truman College? I could really use some insight into the admissions process there. I can't seem to find much about it online.

Sure, happy to help shed some light on the process for Truman College. It's actually a part of City Colleges of Chicago, a community college system which has an open admission policy. This means they admit anyone who has completed high school or obtained a GED.

Here are the steps usually associated with applying to Truman College:

1. Application: You begin by completing the online application form available on the City Colleges of Chicago website which includes Truman college.

2. Transcripts: You'll also need to submit your high school transcripts or GED score.

3. Placement Tests: Additionally, you might need to take placement tests for Math and English. These help to determine the appropriate course level for you. Previous coursework or standardized test scores may allow you to skip these.

4. Orientation: After receiving admission, students usually undergo new student orientation. This helps to introduce students to campus resources and services.

5. Course Enrollment: The final step is course selection and registration, where you'll work with an advisor to select appropriate courses for your academic goals.

You might also need to apply for financial aid, and you can do so by filling out the FAFSA. Truman College does offer scholarships too, so you may want to look into that.

Also, Truman College could be a beneficial choice if you're aiming to transfer to a four-year institution later on as the City Colleges of Chicago have partnerships with several universities for smooth transfer.

Remember, the best way to get accurate and current information is to contact the institution directly. Good luck with your application!
