Under-age Students

Cape Cod Community College does not accept applicants for admission or registration for individual courses from under-age students. (An under-aged student is one who is under the age of compulsory school attendance, which is sixteen years old in Massachusetts.) Under-aged students and their parent or guardian may appeal a denial of admission or registration to the Director of Admissions. Supportive documentation including but not limited to the results of placement test scores will be evaluated prior to registering for courses each semester by the Director of Admissions, the Division Dean, and the Vice President of Academic and Student Affairs. Cape Cod Community College reserves the right to require the parent or guardian to attend all classes and campus activities if the Vice President of Academic and Student Affairs decides in favor of the under-aged student’s appeal. (Approved by President’s Cabinet January 5, 2011)
