The following guidelines apply to the admission of those persons who do not meet general admission requirements. 

1. Students under the age of 18 who have not earned a diploma or the equivalent from an accredited high school may be admitted only upon appropriate release from their high school. Home-schooled students are also subject to the special admission requirements. Students will be required to submit a High School Release Form signed by the appropriate high school official when they apply for admission and register. These forms are available at area high schools.  Applications for underage students must have a release form attached in order to be processed.
    

2. Persons who meet the requirements of the Running Start program may enroll in most college transfer and vocational classes if the student meets the prerequisites associated with the given course and are authorized for such enrollment by their high school.
    

3. Students under the age of 16 normally will not be admitted. If a potential student will not be 16 by the starting date of the quarter they wish to attend and want to pursue enrollment, the interested party must contact the Director of Educational Planning to seek an exception. Enrollment decisions will be made according to the following criteria:
    
1. The student must be referred to Green River from an academic institution or educator. This referral will include a required release form from the student’s home institution, signed by the counselor (referring agency) and the student’s parent or guardian.
2. Students will be admitted on a space-available basis; formal enrollment may be completed no earlier that the third day of the quarter.
3. If it is determined that the student is eligible for courses available through the public school system, the student should not be enrolled.
4. Students must meet course prerequisites and demonstrate academic preparedness through COMPASS placement or an independent evaluation by a full-time faculty member from the impacted division(s).
5. Appropriate evaluation of the student’s maturity/college readiness. This can be accomplished through a personal interview between the student, the Dean of Student Services or his/her designee, the dean of the appropriate academic division, and the instructor of record for the course(s) to be taken. It may be appropriate to include the parent/guardian of the student in these discussions.
6. Students may not drop or add courses during an approval quarter without appropriate approval from the instructor.
7. Students are required to make academic progress (GPA of 2.0 or above) each quarter.

Students not complying with these procedures will be disenrolled.
