Application Procedures

To apply for admission, all applicants must submit the following:

  • Application for Admission: An application form can be picked up from all college sites and village teleconference centers, or it can be downloaded from the website. Completed forms must be returned to the Admissions Office. See the academic calendar for deadlines.
  • An official transcript certifying the student’s high school diploma or official GED certificate should be sent directly to the Admissions Office. All students are required to submit official high school transcripts except for college transfers. High school seniors who apply before graduation must have their final transcript sent to the Admissions Office following their graduation. Copies of high school transcripts or hand-carried official high school transcripts, regardless of whether they are in a sealed envelope, are no longer considered official. If the validity of a student’s high school transcript is in question, whether by Iḷisaġvik College or the U.S Department of Education, the Registrar’s Office will conduct an investigation, in partnership with the Dean of Academic Affairs, to verify the validity or invalidity of the transcript. The investigation will occur within 30 business days of receipt of the questioned transcript, and the conclusion will be delivered to the student in writing at the end of that 30-day period.
  • Provide a copy of Alaska Native Shareholder/Native American Tribal Affiliation card, if qualified. Qualified students may be eligible for additional scholarship funds. 
  • Submit a signed Meningitis form. The form can be obtained from the Admissions Office or downloaded from the website.

Students who are applying for certificate or degree programs should check the individual program in the college’s catalog to determine if there are any additional application requirements for that specific program.
