A
student enrolling at a KCTCS college for the first time must file
an application for admission. Students who are re-entering the community
or technical college after being out for one or more semesters must
update their admissions records with the admission office. Students
may be admitted to a KCTCS college as freshmen, as students with
advanced standing from other institutions, as visiting students,
or as non-degree students. KCTCS colleges admit students who have
graduated from high school; who have earned a high school general
equivalency diploma (GED); or who are eligible to pursue a GED.
