Beginning Freshman
If you have no previous college coursework, you would be considered a freshman or a first-time college student. Bluegrass Community and Technical College accepts all applicants who are high school graduates or GED recipients who have not attended any other college or university as beginning freshmen. If you have questions about the beginning freshman application process, please contact us at 859.246.6210.
Freshman applicants must submit the following information:
• An application for admission. The application for admission can be printed off the web here or submitted online here.
• An official high school transcript (showing the date of graduation) OR official passing GED scores;
• Official American College Test (ACT) or Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) scores are NO LONGER REQUIRED for general admission into BCTC, but they are HIGHLY ENCOURAGED. These scores can be used to bypass COMPASS testing, can be crucial in obtaining KEES money, and are still required for some Selective Admissions programs. Students applying for any health program should visit the Office of Admissions main web page.
