Please note: if you have previously applied, you will need to create a new account using a different email address than previously used in order to submit a new application.

How long will it take to complete the application?

This answer is different for everyone and depends on your program’s requirements. Keep in mind that you’ll need to fill out all applicable fields in the online application and submit additional documents, including transcripts and recommendations.

What kind of transcripts do I need to submit?

Students applying for bachelor’s completion programs should submit the following:

For students without an associate or equivalent degree, you will need to submit:

GED certificate, official high school transcript, or attestation form
College transcripts from all institutions attended (if you are seeking transfer credit)
To facilitate transferring credits, please list Code Fellows as a school attended on your application.

For students with an associate or equivalent degree, you will need to submit:

Associate degree transcript stating conferral and date
If you attended other schools before obtaining your associate degree and would like to receive transfer credit for that experience, please provide those transcripts as well.

Where should I send my transcripts?

U.S. transcripts must be submitted through one of the following channels:

Mailed from an institution in a stamped and sealed envelope
Emailed through Parchment Exchange, National Student Clearinghouse, Docufide, etc.
Requested through a completed Request for Previous High School/College Transcript form. This is a courtesy form created for applicants to submit to previously attended school(s) to ensure proper delivery to the College of Professional Studies. Please do not send this form directly to us as we cannot request transcripts on your behalf.
In lieu of a high school transcript, transfer students can submit an official copy of their domestic college transcript in combination with our Attestation Form. This will waive the need for a high school transcript submission.

Foreign transcripts must include an original English translation and be mailed from an institution in a stamped and sealed envelope or emailed through Parchment Exchange, National Student Clearinghouse, Docufide, Parchment Send, Escrip-Safe, etc.

Do I need to submit all required documents before receiving a decision?

Yes, we will not be able to review your application until we have received all necessary application requirements.

If you are required to submit recommendations, your recommender’s name(s) must be submitted online, even if they will be submitting your recommendation offline.

How long will it take to receive a decision on my application?

We will begin the review process once your application is complete, and you will typically receive your admissions decision in five to 10 business days.
