Underage Students (Younger than 16 Years Old)

Students under the age of 16 who wish to be considered for admissions to TBCC must:

• Obtain a letter of recommendation from your high school counselor or administrator, which addresses both academic and behavioral preparedness for an adult learning environment,
• Apply for admission,
• Show college level proficiency in reading, writing and mathematics. (place at the minimum levels of RDWR 115, and MTH 60, MTH 60Z or MTH 70),
• Meet with a TBCC career education advisor (both student and parent/guardian are required to attend), and
• Complete the “Underage Enrollment Form.”

Prior to each term of enrollment at TBCC, students under the age of 16 must consult with a TBCC advisor and obtain a signature of approval for their schedule of classes before registering.

Continuing registration for all students under the age of 18 will be contingent upon the student’s compliance with all relevant college financial, academic, and student conduct policies. The decision of whether a student has demonstrated the ability to perform academically is at the sole discretion of TBCC.
