Clearwater Christian College

Next Steps for Homeschoolers

Home educated students make the transition to the college classroom using the same formula as every student-hard work and time management. Strong students distinguish themselves and open the doors to graduate programs, ministry opportunities, and professional careers.

Steps to Take

	Review admission requirements. More info... The student must have graduated from high school or earned an equivalent degree (GED). The student must be a regenerate believer in the Lord Jesus Christ. The student should have at least a 2.0 unweighted high school GPA. The student must have at least an 870 critical reading/math score on the SAT, or a composite score of 18 on the ACT. The student must submit two satisfactory recommendations from a pastoral and academic source.
	Complete and submit your official application for admission. More info... The priority date for application and financial aid is March 15.
	Submit a non-refundable $35.00. More info... If applying online, you may submit the fee by credit card. Otherwise, please send a check or money order with the student's name on the check to the College. Clearwater will accept the College Board fee waiver or appropriate letter verifying family financial hardship.
	Submit an official homeschool transcript current through the time of application. More info... The homeschool transcript should include a letter grade assigned for each subject studied, beginning in the 9th year of schooling, as well as the signature of the homeschooling parent or agency representative. A final official transcript must be submitted upon completion of course of study and must include graduation date or the date when studies were completed. In the absence of a transcript, you must take the GED. Scores from the test must be sent directly to CCC before the application deadline. If a final transcript is submitted, these tests are not required.
	Submit your scores from the SAT (Code 5142) or ACT (Code 0715). The SAT or ACT is required of all applicants except those who are transferring in from another school.
	Submit two reference forms. More info... One reference must come from a member of the pastoral staff of your church and attest to your Christian testimony. The other reference should come from a high school teacher, counselor, or a college instructor and attest to your academic ability. Both references should be provided by persons outside of your own family.
	Explore Clearwater's extensive scholarship and grant-in-aid programs on the Financial Aid site.

Elementary Education major from Georgia, Lauren loves the size of CCC and the feeling that you know most people on campus. "I am the Devotion Leader in my unit, and it has been fun to get to know the girls in my unit better and to prepare devotions at night. I love sharing what God has been doing in my life and to hear what He is doing in theirs, too." Being a member of the CCC soccer team and an Elementary Education major leaves Lauren quite busy, but when she is not practicing, studying, or catching up on rest, she likes to take advantage of the beautiful surroundings by biking off campus. "I've grown so much during my time at CCC. Everything from chapels, unit devotions, my personal devotions, to the encouragement of friends and faculty has helped me grow closer to Christ. Clearwater Christian College provides a well-rounded student who is very knowledgeable in his/her field of study. Each student graduating from Clearwater will be equipped in his/her major."
