SFCC Admissions Application

This document must be completed in its entirety.

Valid Photo Identification

This should be a state drivers license or state ID card or military ID proving the applicant to be at least 18 years of age.

Original Social Security Card

The Federal Privacy Act of 1974 requires that students be notified that disclosure of his/her social security number (SSN) is mandatory. The social security number is used to verify a student’s identity, to process the awarding of financial aid funds, and to trace individuals who have borrowed funds from federal, state, or private programs.

Proof of U.S.A. Citizenship or Eligibility of Non-citizens

Must be verified by U.S.A. birth certificate, U.S.A. passport, U.S.A. naturalization certificate, or other appropriate documentation to be in the USA. NOTE: There is very limited accommodation that can be made towards “foreign” applicants, since SFCC does not process student visas.

Verified by official transcripts from an accredited and approved institution or foreign transcript evaluation.

Entrance Examination: Proof of English and math skills.
