• Returning students who registered for TCC Undergraduate Courses within the last 365 days register online through WebAdvisor. 
  • Returning students who have failed to register at TCC within the last 365 days must update their demographic information before registration by completing TCC's reactivation form.
• Students without a Social Security number can apply with the Texas Common Application or request a paper application at the Registrar's Office.
• International Students will need to contact the International Admissions Office.

Admissions Application Deadline

In an effort to allow students sufficient time for testing, advising, registering and preparing for the start of sessions, TCC requires First Time in College (FTIC) students to submit our Admissions Application two weeks before the start of classes.

Students who miss the regular fall, spring or summer term deadline are encouraged to submit their application and enroll in Saturday, Second Eight-Week, Second Summer or other mini sessions that start at least two weeks after the application is submitted.

All undergraduate students are encouraged to read about Paying for College (PDFwill open in a new window).

Application Types

In addition to submitting an application, undergraduate applicants are required to submit additional documents according to their applicant type.

Applicant types include:

• New-to-college
• Transfer
• Returning
• Early high school
• Non-citizen
• International

Meningitis Vaccination Requirement

The 82nd Texas Legislature approved Senate Bill 1107, which requires all new TCC students under the age of 30 to submit evidence of being immunized against meningococcal meningitis 10 days prior to their first term at TCC.

This requirement also applies to returning TCC students who have experienced a break in enrollment of at least one fall or spring term.

For more information about TCC's meningitis vaccination requirements, visit our Meningitis Vaccination page.
