Immunzation Requirements--All applicants born before January 1, 1957, are required to provide proof of immunization against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR). A PPD (tuberculosis) test with negative results within the last five years must be documented. Positive PPD testers will be required to receive an x-ray to eliminate contagious factors. A student with contagious airborne (active TB) communicable disease will not be admitted for attendance.
New Students
- A student who has earned a diploma from an accredited high school or
has earned a General Education Development (GED) certificate may apply
for admission.
All incoming students who have never attended a college or
university shall be required to complete the COMPASS Test prior to acceptance (COMPASS definition).
Transfer Students - Students who have earned 30+ college level credits will be exempt from the COMPASS. Reasonable accommodations are provided for persons with disabilities.
Pre-GED
- An individual who has not earned a high school diploma or earned a GED
may be admitted as a Pre-GED student.
Pre-GED students must follow the regular admission process.
A Pre-GED student may register for developmental studies
(sub-100 courses) only, with the tuition and fees waived. The purpose
of the Pre-GED acceptance is to assist the student with preparation for
the GED exam at an approved GED testing site.
Fort Belknap College is not a certified test site and
offers the developmental studies courses as an incentive for these students
to achieve their GED.
Workshop Participants - Workshop and seminar participants will be required to complete the appropriate forms for the scheduled event. Any fees and payments will be assessed and received prior to the event.
COMPASS Test (COMPASS) and Developmental Studies--The COMPASS is an instrument used to measure the level of education of an individual and used solely for placement purposes. A new student who has never attended a college or university, or a transfer student who has not earned 30+ college level credits must complete all three sections of the COMPASS prior to acceptance.
