Students will be assisted with financial aid and other scholarship opportunities.

First-time entering students are required to attend New Student Orientation on August 9 in the EACC Lecture Hall. Continuing students may make appointments to meet with their advisors during regular office hours.

Students must submit:

1. A completed "Application for Admission" form. This can be accessed on the EACC website at www.eacc.edu or by filling out a form in the Hodges Student Services Complex on campus.

2. High school, GED, or college transcripts. A high school or GED transcript is required for those students with no previous college experience. Transfer students must provide official transcripts from all previously attended colleges.

3. Proof of immunization against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR). According to Arkansas state law, incoming freshman and foreign-born students must provide proof of two doses of MMR immunization. All other full-time students must provide proof of one dose of MMR immunization. Students born on or after January 1, 1957 are exempt from these requirements.  For other exemptions and recommendations, click HERE.  EACC recommends current immunizations for all students. Immunization records may be obtained from the Health Department or from the student's high school or family physician.

4. Placement test scores. Students who have not taken previous college classes in Math and English/Reading must provide an American College Testing (ACT) student profile report or Assessment of Skills for Successful Entry and Transfer (ACCUPLACER) evaluation scores. The ACCUPLACER test is offered at no cost on the EACC campus.
