Returning Students

Step 1 – APply to TCC

If you have not been enrolled at Tidewater Community College for the last three semesters, you must reapply by submitting an updated free online application for admission.

If you have been enrolled at Tidewater Community College for at least a semester in the last three semesters, you do not need to submit an updated application for admission.

• Read all the application questions carefully and do your best to respond to everything accurately.
• Skipping a response or giving an incomplete answer (i.e. not providing your social security number or failing to indicate that you plan to apply for financial aid) will create additional steps for you later.
• To qualify for general admission, you must have a high school diploma or the equivalent, or be 18 years of age or older and be able to benefit from a program of study at Tidewater Community College.
