Open Admissions

Clinton, Muscatine and Scott Community Colleges’ Open Admissions policy means that anyone above 16 years of age may apply, even without a high school diploma. Admission to the college does not automatically guarantee admission to all programs of study; you will need to meet the specific requirements for your chosen program.
 
The colleges work with every student to place them in the appropriate classes, regardless of whether or not they completed high school. Students who have not completed high school may need to take additional classes to prepare them to complete college level coursework. We work hard to make sure every student has the opportunity to succeed.

Concurrent Enrollments

You may enroll at classes at more than one of our colleges or at one of our colleges and any other institution.  If you are receiving financial aid, you must notify the financial aid officers at all institutions in which you are enrolled.
 
High school students may enroll in both high school and college courses at the same time, with permission from high school officials.

Transfer Credit

From other colleges to EICCD
We accept transfer credit from colleges and universities accredited by the Higher Learning Commission or its regional affiliates.  Credit for equivalent courses will be accepted to satisfy specific course requirements for graduation.  The transfer credit you receive may vary depending on the academic program you choose, and college registrars will decide on elective credit or course substitutions on an individual basis.  Transfer credit will be recorded on your EICCD transcript after you have requested a transcript evaluation. Transfer grades are not used in your EICCD grade point average.
 
From vocational-technical to arts and sciences programs
If you earn credit in vocational-technical courses at EICCD or other accredited institutions, a maximum of 16 hours of that credit may be accepted as elective credit for an Arts and Sciences degree.  See the College Registrar for complete details.
 
We reserve the right to refuse credit earned more than 10 years before your proposed program completion date.  All credit you earn at one of our colleges will transfer to another EICCD college, with the limitations outlined above.

Admission on Restricted Status

If you have been dismissed from another institution or were not in good standing when you left, you still may be admitted on restricted status.  The college may limit your class load and course selection if you want to enroll for more than six credits while you are on restricted status.  We may also require supplemental assessment, counseling and other forms of assistance to help promote your academic success.

Veterans

All of our programs are approved by the Iowa Department of Education for veterans benefits for students eligible under the GI Bill.  If you are a veteran of the Armed Forces, National Guard or Reserve, contact the College Registrar early in the application process to certify your status and benefits.  If you have earned credit through civilian or military education, the College Registrar may evaluate that credit for transfer evaluation.
 
To receive educational assistance from the Veterans Administration, you must meet "pursuit of education and academic standards" established by the VA and college policy.  You are responsible for knowing and following policies that apply to you as a veteran.  For information about these policies, including pursuit of education, satisfactory progress, verification, benefit and other questions about veteran students, see the College Registrar.
 
If you are the widow, widower or child of a veteran, you may also be eligible for educational benefits.  The College Registrar can help answer your questions.
