but want to improve reading, writing, critical thinking, and math skills to:
- Get or advance in a job
- Improve skills to enroll in a college transfer or professional/technical program
- Complete requirements for a high school diploma
- Study for a high school equivalency test, like the GED®
- Qualify for an I-BEST or career pathway program
- Improve college placement test scores
*Students under the age of 18 must no longer be attending a public school and complete a special admission process.
How to Enroll
GET STARTED IN PRE-COLLEGE PROGRAMS
Once you finish and submit the 'Get Started' form, you'll receive an email with links
to complete the following steps:
Step 1: New Student High School Completion
Completing this form will help us understand your goal and guide you towards achieving
it.
Step 2: Reading/Writing and Math Assessment
Plan on 20 minutes per assessment. These will help us determine the right classes
for you to discuss during your first one-on-one advising appointment.
Step 3: New to Edmonds College? Edmonds College Application
Once you complete this application form, you'll be emailed a student number needed
to register for classes. (Tip: When applying, select "create an account" and "transitional
studies" is our program).
Step 4: Transcripts
To avoid unnecessary classes, bring your unofficial transcript to your first advising
appointment or email to: adulthighschool@edmonds.edu
Parchment is the preferred online resource for accessing high school transcripts.
Step 5: Schedule and Attend an In-Person Orientation
We offer in-person orientations at various dates and times before each quarter. To
get the most out of your orientation, complete as many of the steps above as possible
beforehand. During orientation you'll schedule your first one-on-one advising and
registration appointment.
Step 6: One-on-One Advising Appointment
In this meeting, you will discuss your program options, register for classes, and
learn about tuition payments.
