Early Admissions

If you are interested in taking college-level classes and you are neither 18 years of age nor a high school graduate, you are considered an Early Admission student. Early Admission acceptance is determined by the College of DuPage Admission and Information office on a case-by-case basis. Your first step is to speak with an admission specialist at (630) 942-2380 to schedule a qualifying interview and to discuss the required placement test procedures.

Early Admission requirements:

• A score in Category One on both the C.O.D. reading and English placement tests. Math and select science courses may require math placement test results.

• A minimum G.P.A. of 2.0/4.0 or 3.0/5.0

• Complete the Early Admission Application (available at your high school or mailed to you by an admission specialist)

• Interview with an admission specialist

• Students applying for early admission will be limited to ONE academic course during their first term at C.O.D.

High school counselor or parent approval does not guarantee admission. This process will need to be repeated each semester until the student turns 18 or graduates from high school.
