The Dallas County Community College District has an open-door admissions policy to ensure that every person has the opportunity to get a college education.
To take classes for college credit, you must first complete the DCCCD application for admission. Apply early to make sure you have plenty of time to visit with an advisor, complete assessment testing and plan your course schedule.
If you are an international student, you must contact an international student advisor at the college you wish to attend to apply for admission. All other students can apply in one of three ways:
1. Online
Apply online using the eConnect Application for Credit Admissions. eConnect is a DCCCD Web service that lets you get personalized information and conduct business online.
If you were formerly enrolled as a DCCCD credit student but have not registered within the past year, you need to submit an updated admissions application. Rather than completing the online form, please contact the Admissions/Registrar's Office at your preferred location.
2. By mail or fax
Print this application (PDF - 736KB), fill it out, and mail or fax it to the college of your choice.
3. In person
Drop by the Admissions/Registrar's Office at the college you wish to attend and complete an admissions application in person.
What you will need
- Completed application
- If available, your official high school transcript, a copy of your diploma or a copy of your GED certificate
- Official college transcripts, if you have already attended another college. Have your transcripts sent directly to the Dallas County Community College you wish to attend. Many DCCCD courses have prerequisites that must be met before registering. As a result, students who have not submitted transcripts may not be able to register for all desired classes.

Depending on the type of applicant you are, you may need to meet additional requirements.
You may also be asked to provide documentary evidence of your residency status. The amount of tuition charged is based on where you live.
