Admission to college programs are generally on a first come, first served basis provided that all admission requirements have been met. This means that applicants for college programs are admitted in the order of the date that they have submitted all of the required documentation. A number of career programs require pre-admission activities and some health studies programs are based on selective admissions.

Admission to most programs is granted to qualified applicants whose completed application and supporting materials are received by stated deadlines and subject to available space. Other program application deadlines are outlined under specific program descriptions in the college calendar. Some programs will accept applications until programs reach capacity.
