Application for a program admission should be made directly to the program director as early as possible in advance of the fall semester. Applicants whose high school class has graduated and who wish to enroll in Tyler Junior College may be considered if they present satisfactory scores on the GED test prior to admission. Admission of Transfer Students Students may be accepted on transfer from other regionally accredited colleges and universities when eligible to return to their former institutions. Students who did not graduate form high school, but whose high school class has graduated may be admitted provided the admitting officer is convinced that the applicant's record indicates the student would be competent to benefit from a program of the institution as demonstrated by completion of state placement tests. These students may take one or two courses each semester.
Credit is applied when the student provides a high school transcript with the date of graduation.
In addition to admission to Tyler Junior College, students must fill out the appropriate application to a particular allied health program in which they are interested. High school students may, with permission of the appropriate high school officials, hold concurrent enrollment in high school and college courses. This is available only for those students in an area high school which has an agreement with the College that students may take these courses and receive both college and high school credit. Students who are under 18 years of age and who are applying for admission based on completion of an independent study in a nontraditional setting, which is equivalent to the level in a public or private high school, may be admitted with a notarized record of work showing completion date. Placement testing is required.
