  • Monday, Aug 3: Deadline for first time freshmen applications on the Downtown Campus only

  • After Aug. 3, applications from first-time freshmen wanting to attend the Downtown Campus will be accepted for Spring 2010 only.  This deadline also applies to developmental ESL students.

  • Due to budget cuts limiting the number of course offerings, Fall semester classes on the Downtown Campus are already at or near capacity, and the college does not want to admit students when classes are not available for them.

  • Students still can apply at all other Jefferson campuses through Aug 13. However, students are encouraged to apply as soon as possible because classes are filling up quickly. Fall classes begin Aug 17.

  • Students wanting to take transfer/general education courses are strongly encouraged to attend the Southwest Campus, off Stonestreet Road in southern Jefferson County. General education programs also are available at the college’s Carrollton and Shelby County campuses and in Bullitt County.

  • Students wanting to enroll in technical programs, including automotive technology, plumbing, carpentry, wood manufacturing, aviation, heating,/ventilation/air conditioning  technology, cosmetology, and pharmacy technology, should apply at Jefferson Technical Campus, 727 W. Chestnut St.

Attend Orientation

All first time students must attend orientation.

Students will be given information regarding  orientation dates and times once their applications have been processed. There are multiple sessions to choose from prior to each semester.

Orientations last two to three hours and cover information about the college, programs, assessment testing, and registration.

Students receive their student ID number at orientation, which is needed to complete assessment exams and registration.

 

Take the COMPASS Assessment Exam

Most new students are required to take the COMPASS exam.

This test is to determine which level of classes a student must take.  There is no charge for this exam.

New students will be given information about the Compass Exam at Orientation.

Students who have taken the ACT and scored an 18 in English, an 18 in Reading, and a 20 in Math do not have to take the COMPASS exam.

It is important to take the COMPASS exam seriously. Re-Examination is allowed in only a few circumstances and there is a fee to re-test. For information about the COMPASS and a practice exam, visit the Assessment Center's home page.

See an Advisor

Once students have attended orientation and taken the COMPASS exam, they can see an advisor to register for classes. ""

During peak registration times, the advising centers on the Downtown and Southwest campuses hold walk-in hours, but to make an appointment contact:
