Hey guys, I've been looking into Arizona Western College and I'm curious about their admissions process. Can anyone share details about that? How competitive is it and what do they look for in applicants? Thanks!
Hello! Arizona Western College (AWC) operates on an open admissions policy, which means that as long as you have a high school diploma or a GED, you can be admitted. The admissions process is not particularly competitive, and they welcome students from various academic backgrounds.
To apply for AWC, follow these general steps:
1. Complete the online application: Fill out AWC's free online application, providing your personal and academic details.
2. Submit necessary documentation: AWC will require your high school transcripts, or GED scores, as well as any transfer credits or college transcripts (if applicable). If you're an international student, additional documentation might be needed.
3. Take a placement test (if needed): Depending on your intended major or program, AWC may require you to take a placement test, such as the ACCUPLACER, to determine your initial course placement in subjects like Math and English.
4. Apply for financial aid: Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be considered for federal and state financial aid opportunities.
AWC doesn't have a specific set of requirements for admission, and they don't evaluate applicants' competitiveness since they accept everyone who meets the minimum qualifications. They're more focused on providing higher education opportunities to a broad range of students.
Best of luck in your application to Arizona Western College!
