How to Apply and What to Expect
Step 1: Acquire a High School Admission Application
You can get an application for TMCC High School by downloading it, by calling TMCC High School at 775-674-7660 to have one mailed, or by picking one up at the TMCC High School office.
Step 3: Send/Submit the Completed Application
The completed application can be mailed or brought to the TMCC High School office. The completed application must have all parent/student signatures, unofficial transcript, attendance record for the current school year, any testing you may have, and teacher/counselor recommendations. The teacher/counselor recommendations can be mailed via inter-school mail by the teacher/counselor. The process to accept or deny the application can take up to three weeks. The more complete the information we have, the less time it takes to process an application.
Step 4: Processing Your Application
When we process your application and find that you are borderline or do not meet the criteria for acceptance, we will call you. Based on your application, we may require you to do certain things in the areas of academics, attendance, and/or discipline to enhance your chances of meeting our entrance criteria and aid in your success, or we may deny your application.
Step 5: Admission Acceptance
When we process your application and accept you, we will send out an a conditional acceptance letter with directions on how to apply to the college, how to complete a Program of Study, and how to take the ACCUPLACER (students test into MATH 95 & ENG 98 to be fully accepted). Upon successful completion of the items on the conditional acceptance letter, students will be given an enrollment packet and an orientation/registration packet. The forms in the enrollment packet must be completed and sent back to the TMCC High School office as soon as possible. The orientation/registration packet will contain the dates/time/place for orientation and registration as well as registration instructions.
Step 6: Orientation
Orientation is held separately from registration and is mandatory for student and parent. You will not be allowed to register if you have not attended orientation.
