The college may admit persons 18 years of age or over when the evidence indicates that the individual will benefit from college level instruction. Students are encouraged to complete high school prior to enrolling in the college. Students under age 18 who have graduated from high school or passed the CHSPE or the G.E.D. must provide proof.

Regardless of age, if you have attended other colleges or universities, COS will also need to receive copies of transcripts from all institutions you have attended. This is required if you wish to obtain Financial Aid or apply for graduation.
