Apply for Admission
The City Colleges do not require students to take an admittance test. However, students are required to take a placement test to assess their English, reading and mathematics levels. Students who hold a bachelor's degree or have successfully completed a college level English or mathematics course with a grade of 'C' or better may be eligible to have the placement test requirement waived.
Application must be done in person with the exception of Truman College, where you can apply online and later visit the campus for placement tests.
Take Placement Tests
Placement tests are required for all new students. Meet with an advisor to determine which placement tests you should take. Transfer students should forward an official copy of their transcripts to the Registrar's Office prior to enrollment.
