Enrollment

Complete Tri-C Application
Please use a personal email address (not your high school email address) when creating an account and entering your contact information. Select "Degree" or "Certificate Program" and "Western Campus (Parma)." Once your S-Number is issued, include it in all further communications.

Complete the Ford ASSET application
Complete the GM ASEP application 
Corporate programs require a web application, followed by an interview with the program director prior to admission into the program. Additionally, you must arrange your own interviews with a potential sponsoring dealership and inform the program director once secured. Ideally, you will be sponsored by June 1.

Submit GED Diploma, Test Scores and/or High School Transcripts
Follow the Ohio Department of Education or your high school's process to release your records. Electronically forwarded PDF files or faxes are not accepted. The registraroffice@tri-c.edu email can be used by high school staff to receive transcripts or ACT/SAT test scores.

Tuition and fees are determined by residency rates.

Complete FAFSA Application
Contact the Tri-C Student Financial Aid and Scholarship department for support and to learn about seminars. Any student earning a Tri-C scholarship or tuition incentive must have a FAFSA on file.

Review Funding Opportunities
All students should complete the FAFSA and the Tri-C Scholarship Application. This screens students for a wide range of criteria within the Cuyahoga Community College Foundation's funding opportunities.

Student Accessibility Services (SAS): Different from high school, students with disabilities must self-identify by completing the New to SAS Form and meet with a Tri-C SAS coordinator prior to their classes starting to receive accommodation in the classroom or testing environment.

Testing Services: After transcripts or test scores are posted to your account in my Tri-C space, you may still need testing to determine your placement in English and Math courses at the College. Testing requires an appointment, S-Number and photo ID.

General Automotive Technology students can complete the New Student Online Orientation and then schedule an appointment with a Tri-C counselor.

Ford ASSET and GM ASEP students will attend an in-person session in late July to complete orientation, meet a counselor, and register for classes.

You can register online or in person at the Admission and Enrollment Services office at any campus. After the term payment deadline, you must make your payment at the time of registration or risk deregistration.

After registering, present a photo ID to the Admission and Enrollment Services desk to get your photo taken, and wait for your Stomp Card to be printed.

What is the Stomp Card?

• The official college ID for Cuyahoga Community College.
• A stored value card for purchases at Tri-C.
• A discount card at accepted Tri-C locations and off campus partners.
