Instruction requirements effective with the 2012 high school graduating class
and high school diploma issue (students who do not pass end of instruction
tests will not receive a diploma) and how that impacts college admission, I was
asked if the community colleges were "o.k." because they were open
door institutions. I said no, because policy states Adult Admission means
21 years of age or older or those on active duty in the military. Several
of you indicated that community colleges could admit students without a high
school diploma or GED and I was quite sure that was not allowed and said
so. <u>My statement is inaccurate</u>.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
