Admission Requirements:
All applicants must show evidence of high school graduation and exhibit a serious attitude toward training in the career area offered by this institution. No qualified applicant will be refused based on age, race, creed, or sex. Prospective students are invited to attend admission/financial aid open houses, which are held periodically. Prospective students should call the college to make an appointment with the admissions office.
Student Identity Verification Policy:
Students are required to provide a copy of a government-issued photo ID prior to enrollment that is kept on file. Students are required to meet with a mentor who administers skills evaluations periodically through the program and verifies the students identity. Additionally, teachers can randomly request, at the beginning of any required class, that a student turn on their camera for identity verification. Teachers notify the administration when these checks are made. The pictures from the class recordings are compared to those on file.
Student privacy will be protected. Students and mentors sign contracts that identify each party. Students then meet with their mentors who will confirm the identity of the student. Each syllabus contains the following statement: In order to protect student privacy, the College of Court Reporting will authenticate that the student who registered for this course is the student completing all of the requirements and earning the credits for this course. Personal information about a student will never be shared during the ID verification process.

CCR’s transfer policy is in accordance with accreditation policy for transfer credit. Transfer consideration will be given consideration based on an evaluation of official transcripts, grades and credits earned, and relevance of courses to CCR courses. Please note that time to complete the program is not dependent on how many credits are transferred or on full- or part-time status. It is dependent on how quickly one develops the skill and accuracy and completion of all course and graduation requirements.
