Incoming Freshmen

The following steps will guide you through the admissions process for incoming freshmen. Feel free to print this page for use as checklist.

	APPLY TO GENESEE We offer several different ways to apply for free!

	HIGH SCHOOL TRANSCRIPT / GED Contact your high school guidance office to have an official copy of your transcript sent to our Admissions Office. GED recipients must submit a copy of their GED Score Report.

	IMMUNIZATION REQUIREMENTS If you plan to register for at least six credits, please forward proof of your immunization against measles, mumps and rubella to the Health Office.

	PLACEMENT TESTING You must take either the American College Test (ACT) or Genesee Community College's Compass tests prior to registering for classes. If you've taken the ACT, please forward your score(s) to our Admissions Office. If you have transferable college credit please call the Admissions Office directly to determine what portion, if any, of the Compass test you will need to take.

	PERSONAL INTERVIEW Although a personal interview is not required for admission to the college, we encourage you to visit the campus for a tour, attend classes, and to have an interview with a member of the Admissions Office staff!

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

We notify in writing all applicants who have been accepted. However, if your application is incomplete, you'll receive a letter in the mail reminding you to have your official high school transcripts sent to us as well as official transcripts from any college that you have attended.
