Nontraditional and Special Needs Students

Call New Student Programs 843.953.2017 if you have been admitted for the upcoming academic year and are 23 years or older (born the year of 1983) to arrange an express schedule for one of the ten orientation sessions. An express schedule allows our office to coordinate the essential portions of orientation which apply to you.

For example, the College of Charleston placement tests in foreign language, math and technology must be completed before you can be advised and registered for classes. If you have not satisfied the College’s transfer requirements in math, six hours above college algebra, you will be required to take a math placement test. When you contact us, we will determine which placement tests you need while discussing your express schedule for orientation. You should not complete the student reservation form.

If you have special needs because of a disability, please call our office at 843.953.2017 so we can make appropriate arrangements. For more information about services available to you at the College, contact the at Center for Disability Services at 843.953.1431.
