  1. Complete an Application for Admission. Applications are also available from any Admissions Office.
  2. Submit all of the following with your Application for Admission:
    • Proof of Texas residency (for those who wish to be considered residents for tuition purposes),
    • Scores from college entrance exams (SAT, ACT) taken in the last five years,
    • Scores from the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) taken in the last three years,
    • Approved Texas Success Initiative (TSI) program test scores from ACCUPLACER, ASSET, COMPASS, or THEA (Texas Higher Education Assessment). TASP scores will still be honored even though the TASP test is no longer made available.
    • GED certificate (required for students who have taken the GED exam),
    • Official transcripts from high school are recommended for students with no college experience,
    • Official transcripts from the International Baccalaureate Organization, The Diploma Programme
    • Official transcripts from all colleges previously attended (required for students with college experience).

After you are admitted, but prior to registration, you must either present scores from ACCUPLACER, ASSET, COMPASS or THEA (Texas Higher Education Assessment). If you are TSI (Texas Success Initiative) exempt or TSI waived, you are still required to meet all course prerequisites. College assessment testing can be required to determine placement into course prerequisites. Currently, the colleges of the DCCCD offer ACCUPLACER and ASSET state approved assessment instruments. Please see your advisor to determine your testing requirements.

Please refer to the college credit class schedule for registration dates. "Extended" registration opportunities may be limited.
