Registration checklist for incoming students
Steps to enroll at SC4*:
- Complete the online Application for Admission
- All new, returning (i.e. have not attended SC4 in at least two years) and transfer students – Complete the Application for Admission online at sc4.edu/starthere. If you have attended another college/university, you may wish to have your official transcripts sent to SC4 for evaluation and possible posting of transfer credit. (Some schools charge to have official transcripts sent.)
- High school and college guest students – If you plan to attend SC4 while still in high school or while attending classes at another college/university, you must complete an online guest application for admission. These applications are available at sc4.edu/starthere.
- Optional – Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
- If you wish to be considered for financial aid assistance, you must complete the FAFSA form online at fafsa.ed.gov. Be sure to enter the SC4 Federal School Code 002310 on the application. (High school guests, college guests, students attending for personal enrichment, and students without a high school diploma or GED are not eligible for financial aid.)
