STEPS TO APPLY
Admissions Checklist
Applying for college can be confusing if you haven’t done it before. We’ve created a comprehensive checklist for the application process to help make it as simple and straightforward as possible.
READY TO APPLY?
Select The Application Below That Best Describes You.
“I have never attended any college or university.”
A first-time applicant has never attended college after high school graduation. High school graduates, current high school students, and GED holders may apply as a first-time applicant.
“I would like to transfer to Jacksonville College from another college.”
If you have attended any other college(s) since high school and now want to become a degree-seeking student at Jacksonville College, complete this application.
BUT WAIT! If you only want to take prerequisite courses for another program or summer classes to count toward a degree at your regular college or university, use the TRANSIENT form below.
“I attend another college and only want to take a few courses at JC.”
Degree-seeking students in good standing at another accredited institution may take selected classes as visitor students, also called transient students, at Jacksonville College if their college(s) permit. These students do not become degree-seeking at Jacksonville College.
Students who want to use financial aid must make arrangements with their home institution.
There are two steps to become a Transient student at Jacksonville College:
Step 1: Complete the online Transient Application. There is a Transient Application fee of $25.00.
Step 2: Submit the Transient Registration Form. You can find instructions and the link to this form at the end of the Transient Application.
The student will be registered for the course(s) on the Transient Registration Agreement provided both the application and form are complete. No further action is necessary to register.
Winter, May, and Summer are shorter terms and have a reduced tuition. Regular fee applies for Fall and Spring semesters.
A new Transient Registration Agreement must be submitted for any subsequent term enrollments.
“I was a Jacksonville College student and took one or more terms off. I’m ready to reapply.”
An applicant qualifies for readmission if he/she has been a student at Jacksonville College at some point after high school but has not gone to school anywhere else. A student must apply for readmission after he/she has not been enrolled at Jacksonville College for at least one long semester.
“I just want to take a few classes. I am not pursuing a degree.”
You Are A Non-Degree Seeking Applicant.
A non-degree applicant does not plan to earn a degree of any kind at any school and does not plan to use financial aid (limited to 4 classes).
“I’m a high school student and want to take classes for dual credit.”
A dual credit or concurrent applicant is still in high school and wants to take dual credit classes as part of his or her high school program. See Dual Credit/Concurrent Applicant Requirements for more details.
“I’m a citizen of another country and would like to attend Jacksonville College.”
An International applicant is a citizen of another country and his or her home is outside the United States. An International applicant will attend on an F-1 student visa. See the International page for more information.
