Eligibility

Admission requirements:
Accredited high schools: in order to be eligible to enroll in concurrent classes, you must either have a 3.0 unweighted GPA, ACT Composite or Pre-ACT of 19; or SAT or PSAT of 990. The ACT/Pre-ACT Composite of 19; or SAT/PSAT of 990; or the 3.0 will get you admitted, but you must also meet the sub-scores for the courses you are planning to take at the college. Sub-scores can be met through official ACT scores, PLAN scores, Pre-SAT, SAT or taking college placement tests.

Homeschooled/unaccredited high schools: Students must provide an ACT Composite of 19 or SAT 990 score for admission.

**If you have not taken the ACT we will use your high school GPA for admission and course placement for the Summer 2020, Fall 2020, and Spring semesters only.

Textbook Information

Students are responsible for the textbooks of all courses in which they enroll at OCCC.  To view or search for course material, you can go to our bookstore.

Terms to know:

  • Open Source- All coursework is available for free via your classroom professor or within Moodle (the online learning environment).  
  • OCCC Day One Access- This is a service provided for students that makes your course materials available to you digitally, within your class on Moodle, on the first day of class.  There is a charge for the eTextbooks and/or Courseware. This price is extremely competitive and even cheaper than purchasing directly from the publisher. The charge varies slightly from book to book and is automatically added to your OCCC student account.
