W. Va. Code R. § 135-23-3 - Basic Admissions Standards
3.1. As a means of ensuring a reasonable
chance of success in the education programs for which students seek admission
and of making the most productive use of federal, state and community
resources, institutional admissions policies shall incorporate the following
basic standards.
3.1.a. Admission to community
and technical colleges is open to any person age eighteen or older and able to
benefit from study at the community college level.
3.1.b. Those who possess a high school diploma or
appropriate high school equivalency assessment may enroll as certificate degree
or associate degree-seeking students.
3.1.c. Other persons may enroll as certificate degree
or associate degree-seeking students on an ability to benefit basis but shall
be regularly evaluated to determine whether their performance indicates an
ability to continue their studies.
3.1.d. Students seeking transfer admission or
readmission to a community and technical college must meet the institution's
basic admission standards.
3.1.e.
Early admissions standards for high school students enrolling in community
colleges are subject to the requirements of Section 135-19-6 of 135CSR19,
Guidelines for Offering Early Enrollment Courses for High School
Students.
3.2. Copies of
high school transcripts, health records and transcripts of previous college
work are not required for admission to community colleges. Participation in
certain federal, state, and/or institutional financial aid programs or
admission to specific academic programs do require that copies of high school
transcripts, satisfactory scores earned on a nationally recognized high school
equivalency test and/or prior college work be provided. Individuals are
encouraged to check with the appropriate institutional officials to determine
the documents required for participation in, or admission to such
programs.
