HOW DO YOU APPLY?

Please have the high school guidance office of
the school attended send a transcript record of
high school courses and grades directly to the
College. If a high school equivalence diploma
is held, please submit an official record of the
scores. |

Prior to registration at Garrett College, students
are given placement indicators in reading, writing,
and mathematics. Students identified by placement
indicators as needing additional preparation for
college-level courses will be required to take
the prescribed pre-college level courses. Some
of these courses may be taken concurrently with
an academic program. Students will be assisted
by an advisor in making this determination. |
3. |
ACT and SAT scores, if available, should be sent
to the College. They are not used as an admissions'
requirement. The College's ACT number is
1695. The SAT number is 5279. ACT and SAT
testing centers and dates of tests are available
from the College or from the high school guidance
offices. |

of 21 and/or an ACT math score of 21 will be exempt
from Garrett placement indicators with the exception
of the writing sample. Similarly, students who
have taken SAT tests and have earned a verbal score
of 550 and/or a math score of 550 will be exempt
from Garrett placement tests with the exception
of the writing sample. |
