Pre-admission requirements
Complete one of the following pre-admission requirements:
• Submit ACT Scores: If you have taken the ACT, your scores should appear on your high school transcript. Please have your high school guidance office send a copy of your transcript to the NICC campus you plan to attend. NICC will evaluate the English, reading and math sub scores to determine if they meet our admission requirements. Upon evaluation, you may be asked to take the NICC Pre-Admission Assessment.
• Complete the NICC Pre-Admission Assessment: This assessment test is offered free of charge through the NICC Assessment Center and evaluates a student’s abilities in writing, reading and math. This assessment will also be used as a guideline for course placement. Please contact the Assessment Center at the campus you plan to attend to schedule an appointment.
Note: Students requiring special testing accommodations (i.e. untimed tests, having tests read to you, etc.) MUST contact the Coordinator of Developmental Education prior to testing: Calmar Campus -- 800.728.2256 or 563.562.3263 ext. 258 Peosta Campus -- 800.728.7367 or 563.556.5110 ext. 280
• Submit College Transcripts: Students with prior college credit in a college-level math, reading or English course (with a passing grade of C- or better) are usually not required to take the Pre-Admission Assessment. Please have your official college transcripts sent to the Admissions Office of the NICC campus you plan to attend.
NOTE: Program admission requirements may vary. You will be notified if any additional documents or assessment are required.
