Applicants for admission must submit an official Application for Admission to the Office of Admissions, Records and Registration. As of May 11, 2007, applications submitted online are free; however, applications submitted on paper incur a nonrefundable processing fee of $30.00. For questions on applying to the College, please contact the Application Specialist at 215-968-8122.
Students who are intending to receive Financial Aid must also have an official copy of their high school transcript or an official copy of their GED scores on file in the Office of Admissions.
As of the 2007 spring semester, Placement Testing is required of all incoming students at Bucks (students enrolling at Bucks for the first time). Students who were enrolled at Bucks prior to the 2007 spring semester are still under the previous rules, with Placement Testing required of all full-time students, and part-time students before registering for their 16th credit. Students must first make application to the College before taking the Placement Tests. If you feel that you should be exempt from the Placement Tests, please check the criteria for testing exemptions. The results of the Assessment Testing have no bearing on a student's acceptance to the College; rather they are used for academic advising and program planning that will help to ensure student success.
Application Deadline
Students should apply for admission as early as possible to ensure
optimal course availability. Applications are accepted on a rolling
basis. May 1 is the deadline for the Dean's Academic Scholarship.
Specific Admissions Concerns - Readmission
Students who withdrew from the College and seek readmission must complete an application for readmission and fulfill all other admission requirements before admission can be considered by the College.
Applicants with Previous College Experience
Applicants who attended other colleges may be considered for admission to the College. All applicants must fulfill the College's admission requirements and provide transcripts from each college attended.
- Students who are seeking transfer credit must submit official transcripts along with a Transcript Evaluation Request form.
- To be considered an "official transcript," the document must come directly from the applicant's former college and be sent to the Director of Admissions at BCCC.
- Students who are not seeking transfer credit may submit a nonofficial/student copy of their transcript in order to be reviewed for potential exemption from our placement exams.
Additional details regarding transfer credits can be found on our transferring to Bucks County Community College webpages.
