to Clovis Community College. Also, any person having
successfully completed the California High School
Proficiency Exam (CHSPE) or the General Education
Development test (GED) with scores of 45 overall and with
no subtest lower than 35 may be admitted.
Upon completion of applicable admission requirements,
registration materials are issued by the Admissions and
Records Office. For dates relating to registration, check the
calendars in this catalog or inquire at the college’s Admissions
and Records Office in Academic Center 2, room 130A
(AC2-130A).
Students should complete all plans for entrance as early
as possible and be familiar with the following: (1) general
requirements of the college, (2) special requirements in the
major field of study, (3) the general requirements of the
college or university they may wish to attend in the future,
and (4) the most desirable electives.
General Admission
Admission to Clovis Community College is open to anyone
(subject to residency requirements listed on page 12) who
is at least 18 years old, or has a high school diploma, or the
equivalent (such as the California High School Proficiency
Examination).
Provisional Admission
A person who is 18 years of age or older and is not a high
school graduate is considered a provisional student. A
provisional student may register for 12 semester units or
more for one semester, with the stipulation that in order to
enroll for subsequent semesters as a full-time student, he/she
must earn a 1.75 GPA in the units attempted. This regulation
does not apply to part-time students.
Readmission
Former students of Clovis Community College returning
after an absence of two or more semesters must make formal
application for readmission. An official transcript of work
taken at any other institution (including summer session and
extension or correspondence courses) since the date of last
enrollment at Clovis Community College must be sent from
the previous schools to Clovis Community College, 10309 N.
Willow Ave., Fresno, CA 93730.
Transfer Admission
Students who have previously attended another college and
are in good scholastic standing are eligible to enroll at Clovis
Community College, subject to residence requirements.
Records for transfer students are evaluated with regard to the
scholastic status system in use at Clovis Community College at
the time of enrollment. It is important to note that transcripts
received with “work in progress” are not considered complete.
International Admission
An application, official documents, and detailed transcripts
of record should be submitted to the Admissions and Records
Office no later than two months prior to the beginning of
the semester for which the student is being considered for
admission: June 1 for fall semester and November 1 for spring
semester. A student from another country is not admitted
until notified of admission in writing by the Admissions
and Records Office. It is required that international students
achieve a minimum score of 500 on the Test of English as a
Foreign Language (TOEFL) for regular standing. TOEFL
scores below 500 may be approved by special action. When
an international student arrives at Clovis Community College,
the student should report first to the Admissions Office.
At the time of registration, each student must have evidence
of health insurance and have complied with the district
policy regarding tuberculosis testing and current measles
immunization. It is also mandatory that each student
successfully complete an English course during each semester
at Clovis Community College until graduation requirements
have been met for program completion or for transfer purposes
and that the student maintain 12 units or more each semester.
