Steps for Admission

1. Submit an application for admission located at cvtc.edu/apply
2. Pay the one-time $30 application processing fee.
3. Education Requirement – Applicants who did not graduate from high school, are not currently high school seniors, and did not receive an HSED or GED diploma must complete one of the Ability to Benefit (ATB) options to demonstrate college readiness.
