Admissions
Getting admitted to the college is always one of the most difficult processes (for me at least) on this journey.
The reason being, the Hawaii Program has such a large scope of recruitment, almost no two students are alike
in circumstance. So, the information I will give you here is general and basic, please be advised that while
students in the past have had variable amounts of difficulties, ALL students have been successful in getting
admitted to the college.
There are few things I want you to be aware of before you read below.
1. If you are already a DCCCD student (any campus) you are exempt from this process please email me
your student ID#
2. Once you are done with this process, please email me your student ID#
3. If you have any questions or difficulties email me or call me right away, I can really help you with this
process (and I don’t have to wait in line in most cases!)
4. If applying, make sure you do so for the SPRING semester
5. If you are new to college please be aware that there is a Bacterial Meningitis Vaccination Requirement

6. If given the option, make sure that you check “For personal interest” as your reason for attending
North Lake
7. Make sure you send in your required transcripts ASAP!
8. Summary: Email me your ID, be patient, let me help, and send in your official transcripts.
You can apply the following ways.
1. Online
Apply online using the eConnect Application for Credit Admissions. eConnect is a DCCCD Web service that lets
you get personalized information and conduct business online.
Please note: If you were formerly enrolled as a DCCCD credit student but have not registered within the past
year, you must submit an updated admissions application.
2. In person
Drop by the Admissions/Registrar’s Office at the college you wish to attend and complete an admissions
application in person.
What you will need
Completed application
If available, your official high school transcript, a copy of your diploma or a copy of your GED certificate
If do not have scores at this level or coursework that meets the requirement, students may need to
take Assessment Test. https://www1.dcccd.edu/catalog/admiss/tsi_exempt.cfm
Official college transcripts, if you have already attended another college. Have your transcripts sent
directly to the Dallas County Community College you wish to attend. Many DCCCD courses have
prerequisites that must be met before registering. As a result, students who have not submitted
transcripts may not be able to register for all desired classes. (See frequently asked questions about
the transcript evaluation process.)
Proof of bacterial meningitis vaccination (Some exemptions apply.)
You may also be asked to provide documentary evidence of your residency status. The amount of tuition
charged is based on where you live.
Questions? Contact the Admissions/Registrar’s Office at the college you plan to attend.
