If you have attended college elsewhere or within the last 5 years graduated high school or completed a GED, please bring in or have a transcript sent to Cecil College.

Test scores and transcripts are not a requirement for admission; however, students may receive credits or assessment exemptions after an evaluation. See the scores needed to be exempted from the placement test.

4. Log in to MyCecil

Log in to MyCecil with the credentials provided to you by Admissions.

5. Take Skills Assessments

Students who do not have test scores/transcripts or do not meet any of the exemption criterion will need to take the Cecil College Skills Assessments. Students that are required to skills assess will need to take the English and Math assessments. Students can complete the assessments online or on-campus. For directions on how to complete the assessments, visit the Testing Services page.

6. Meet with an Advisor

Come to the advising center to meet with an advisor for degree planning, academic support, and transfer information. Your assigned advisor is identified in your acceptance letter; however, any advisor can assist you. Walk-in's only; no appointments necessary.
