Admissions

Admissions Steps

All materials required for the Student Personnel File should be in the Admissions Office prior to enrollment.  A student whose files are incomplete at the time of enrollment may be provisionally enrolled and granted one semester to complete the file. If the file is still incomplete after one semester, a student may be subject to administrative withdrawal for subsequent semesters.

1. Application for Admission (pdf).  Completed Application for Admission form.  A $15 application fee will be charged upon initial enrollment. Download application form, print, complete and return form to admissions office with application fee OR obtain the form from the SSC Registrar’s Office.

2. American College Test (ACT).  Results no more than five-years-old—the test is given five times annually on national testing dates. Students who took the ACT more than 1 year ago may require math placement testing.  Students taking the test prior to college enrollment should put the Seminole State College code number (3436) on the ACT application as one of the places the score results are to be sent.   All regularly enrolled students, under age 21, are encouraged to take the ACT test. Students are encouraged to take the ACT test if planning to attend another college/university after they leave Seminole State College. Residual ACT tests are administered locally in addition to those administered on the five national test dates.. See the ACT Web site for more information on these tests.

3. High School Transcript. An official transcript of all high school courses taken must be provided to the Admissions Office. The transcript must show the date of graduation, if applicable.

4. Students who have not earned the required high school units, must clear any deficiency before enrolling in college courses in the specific subject area. Deficiencies may be cleared by meeting itemized scoring standards on the ACT test, by taking college assessment tests and meeting required score requirements, or by enrolling in pre-college level course. Pre-college level course will not count toward satisfaction of degree program requirements. Students must clear any curricular deficiency with the first 24 hours of college credit.  See required units.

5. Immunizations - Oklahoma Statutes, Title 70 §3244, requires that all students who enroll as a full-time or part-time student in Oklahoma public or private postsecondary institution provide documentation of vaccinations against hepatitis B, measles, mumps and rubella (MMR).  Students must complete and submit the Immunization Compliance Form  (pdf) and provide vaccination documentation to the Admissions Office.

See Hepatitis B Information (pdf) and Measles, Mumps, Rubella Information (pdf)

6.  College Transcripts. Official transcripts from other institutions of higher education which have been attended, if any, must be provided to the SSC Admissions and Records Office. Additional information will be required if a student is not in good standing at the last higher education institution attended. Transfer student with curricular deficiencies must clear all deficiencies within the first 12 hours of college credit.

Note: Admission to SSC does not guarantee admission to a specific occupational program. Consult an Enrollment Specialist or the appropriate program coordinator for additional admission requirements to special programs.
