Admission Procedures

One who has become familiar with CALL and has decided to apply should take the following steps:

1. Complete and turn in the APPLICATION (or apply online, see below) with two recommendations as indicated on the forms.
2. Pay the $35 non-refundable application fee.
3. Send a transcript request form (found in the program catalog/booklet) to each college or university previously attended. Check with the registrar from each institution and pay the appropriate transcript fee.
4. After transcript(s) have been received and evaluated, you will be contacted by the CALL staff to schedule an appointment. In this appointment your previous college work is evaluated as it might apply toward the graduation requirements and estimate the number of hours you might earn through testing and the preparation of a portfolio through the Credit by Demonstrated Competency process.
5. Once a desicion has been made about a preferred starting date, the enrollment deposit of $100 should be paid which will reserve a spot in that cohort providing space is currently available. The deposit, which is applied toward the first semester's tuition, may be paid until registration time provided there is still space available in the cohort.
6. Plan to attend registration night and each of the scheduled class nights in the program.
