The admission process at Elgin Community College (ECC) is straightforward and designed to be accessible. Prospective students must complete an online application, which includes providing personal information, educational history, and residency details. There is a non-refundable application fee.
After submitting the application, students must submit official high school transcripts or GED scores. Placement testing may be required unless the student meets exemption criteria through prior coursework or standardized test scores. Once admitted, students attend an orientation session and meet with an academic advisor to register for classes.
