Steps for Enrolling as a Dual/Concurrent Student
Step # 1
Fill out an application to ICC. This can be done either online or by handing in or mailing a paper copy to the Admissions Office in the Student Center at ICC. The mailing address is: ICC, PO Box 804, Spindale, NC 28160. Please submit your application to ICC 24 to 48 hours prior to registration of classes.

What is a Prerequisite? - A prerequisite is something that is pre-required before you will be allowed into a course (see the course descriptions in the back of the ICC Catalog to determine if prerequisites apply).
If the classes that you are interested in have English or math prerequisites, you must take our placement test (called ASSET or COMPASS). For information on the ASSET test, read STEP # 2. If the classes you are interested in have no prerequisites, move immediately to STEP # 3. |
Step # 2 placement test or waiver
To be scheduled for the ASSET test your application must first be in our computer system (which can only happen if you have submitted one to Admissions and allowed for a 24 to 48 hour processing time). If you have submitted an application, you can call Alice McCluney at 828-286-3636 ext. 473 to schedule a time to take the test.
It is possible to be waived from our placement test. For ICC to determine if you are eligible for a waiver, the ACT or SAT scores below must be provided to ICC in an official form (in sealed envelope from issuing institution). ACT and/or SAT scores can be submitted on an official high-school transcript.
Waiver from English portion of ASSET
SAT Verbal 500 or higher (no more than 5 years old)
ACT English 21 or higher (no more than 5 years old)
ASSET or COMPASS scores no more than 3 years old placing you into college-level English
or
Previous college-level English course with appropriate grades (must be evaluated by ICC)
Waiver for Math portion of ASSET
SAT Math 500 or higher (no more than 5 years old)
ACT Math 20 or higher (no more than 5 years old)
ASSET or COMPASS scores no more than 3 years old placing you into college-level math
or
previous college-level math course with appropriate grades (must be evaluated by ICC)
STEP # 3 DUAL/CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT FORM SIGNED
You must bring your concurrent enrollment form (complete with course selection and high school official signature) to the College-High School Liaison contact (Alice McCluney) at Isothermal Community College. Alice must also sign that form before you will be allowed to register for classes. If you are coming to take the placement test, you can get it signed that same day. Otherwise, you can either make an appointment or call in advance to ensure that someone is available to sign your form.
STEP # 4 REGISTRATION INTO CLASSES
After you have submitted an application, any documentation required by ICC, done your placement test (if applicable), and gotten your Dual/Concurrent Enrollment form signed by the College-High School Liaison Contact, Alice will assist you in getting registered for your class(es).
