Admissions
Assisting You in Admission to a Bright New Future!
Western Technical College attracts a diverse student population and is committed to an open-door policy for admission to the college for all prospective students who meet statutory requirements. Recognizing that students are diverse in educational preparation and that courses and programs at the college have varying levels of difficulty, admissions services are designed to provide the best match for each applicant's abilities, interests and aptitudes.
Applicants wanting to study in a specific program area will go through assessment using COMPASS, a series of basic skill tests, prior to being admitted to the college. The results of the COMPASS, which include information on academic readiness, will be used to guide students toward appropriate courses and programs to maximize their opportunity for success.
