To be accepted by Admissions:

please provide an official high school transcript (or high school equivalency) – if a recent graduate (up to five years) from HS graduation date, a final high school transcript with graduation date and ACT / SAT scores must be submitted from your High School. 

If HiSet, GED or HS diploma is older than 5 years, can be a copy of diploma, certificate or transcript, showing graduation date.

Provide official college transcripts from any other colleges you have attended if you want credits to be evaluated and transferred.

It is now required that ALL students complete the Free  Application for Federal Student Aid: FAFSA
