General Admissions Eligibility

Prospective students 18 years or older, or those with a high school diploma or GED, are eligible to

enroll in courses at Community Colleges of Spokane (CCS).

CCS does not wish to duplicate or replace the functions of local high schools. However, high school

students may request special admission to take specific courses at the college on a quarterly basis.

Underage high school students who are not Running Start students may enroll under exceptional

circumstances. Underage high school students who are seeking enrollment on a long term basis

should explore admissions through our Running Start Program.

Per CCS Administrative Policy 3.4.1: All students must demonstrate the ability to benefit from the

college’s curricular offerings and an ability to not create a disruptive environment. CCS reserves the

right to deny admission to students under the age of 16 who it determines are unable to

demonstrate academic and/or behavioral preparedness.

1. Submit the following to the Registrar’s office of the college you will be attending for initial

screening by the Underage Admissions Committee:

 Application for Admission

 Student/Parent (or legal guardian) Release for Underage Student Form

 School District Enrollment Release Form

*annual resubmission required

 Quarterly Academic Plan Form *quarterly resubmission required

 Most current grades from secondary school

 Self-written letter stating CCS enrollment goals

 Letter of recommendation from an educator or tutor (other than a family

member or guardian) addressing academic readiness and behavioral

preparedness for an adult learning environment

*Once submitted for review, the committee will contact you within 7-10 business days regarding

your next step.

2. The Underage Admissions Committee will determine if the student should continue the

process with placement testing. Students must demonstrate academic preparedness for

college-level work by placing into college-level MATH and ENGLISH.

3. Schedule an appointment with the Underage Admissions Committee by calling

SCC 509- 533-7067 or SFCC 509-533-3514.

Approved underage students will be allowed to enroll in one 5 credit class during their first

quarter. The class must be approved by the Underage Admissions Committee and the instructor

will be consulted. The presence of an underage student cannot disrupt regular class materials or

topics.

Approved enrollment for one quarter does not guarantee enrollment approval or class

availability for subsequent quarters. After the initial quarter of enrollment the student’s capability

to be successful will be assessed with the possibility to enroll in additional credits.

Students will be expected to adhere to the Community Colleges of Spokane’s Academic Standards

in addition to the CCS Student Code of Conduct.

Spokane Community College and Spokane Falls Community College reserve the right to

request additional information and/or deny any underage enrollment.

notify parents/guardians when a student is failing or not attending a class. Additionally, it will be the

responsibility of the student to communicate any concern with their instructor.

schedule. College courses are offered in four quarters beginning in September (fall), January (winter),

March/April (spring) and July (summer).
