Admissions Requirements

Applicants must provide proof that they have earned 45 credits from prior colleges and universities before participating in any of the courses offered through the SNC Online Adult Degree Completion Program. After completing the free online application, applicants can email copies of transcripts from their prior institution(s)  to onlineadmissions@sierranevada.edu, so that an admissions counselor can provide the applicant with an estimate of transferable credits and his or her timeline to graduate. The degrees offered in the Adult Degree Completion Program are designed with a generous allotment of elective credit, and each applicant’s credits are evaluated with the goal of utilizing as many prior credits as possible. All students are required to earn 45 credits at SNC prior to completing their degree. Students may enter the online program at any of the three modules within each semester.

Applicants are encouraged to contact the Online Admissions Office with any questions at any time during the admissions process. SNC has a dedicated team who will help applicants make informed, unpressured decisions to determine if the SNC online program is truly the right fit for them. Applicants will be able to determine their transferable credits, timeline to graduate, tuition costs, and financial aid before enrolling.
