<p>Most community colleges (read: all) require placement testing. Not everyone has an equal background in every subject, especially when it comes to CC. Placement tests are very low-key, done on a computer. The process is very quick. My school uses the COMPASS test which I found extremely accurate, though many are not fans.</p>

<p>So that means I apply even without a single education background and get in? All I have to do is take the schjool’s placement test?</p>

<p>You may have to submit transcripts. Did you go to high school, or the equivalent?</p>

<p>I didn’t. I had a unique situation where I stayed home and simply wasn’t schooled. I went online and made a transcript like many homeschoolers do to get into community college, i was very honest with my admission counselors, and they didn’t treat it like a big deal at all, and placed me in appropriate cllasses.</p>

<p>I have my ged, an “I” level English pass and 3 “n” level passes.
So you’re saying that even without any education, the cc will accept me? But ill just have to take extra classes?</p>

<p>Not “l” level but “o” level</p>

<p>I’d contact sbcc to see what they require. At our CC, you only need to have a GED and send GED score and transcripts. May also need some placement exams. The best source is always the U you’re interested in attending.</p>
