Prospective Students

How to Apply

Wade College adheres to a policy of open admissions for high school graduates or those holding a GED. The philosophy of admission is that an educationally motivated individual is entitled to the opportunity for improved professional and personal success. The college provides a supportive educational environment so that an individual with a sincere interest will have the opportunity to meet the educational rigors placed on them and successfully progress through course requirements.

Since annual enrollment is limited by facility space, interested students are encouraged to submit their applications as early as possible. Wade College does not have an application fee. All applicants are required to complete an Enrollment Application* and interview with a representative from the Admissions Office prior to the start of classes. It is highly recommended that this interview take place at the college; however in circumstances where the applicant's home is a great distance from the college, the interview may be conducted by telephone or via the Internet. During the admissions interview, the applicant's educational and career goals are discussed, along with the goals and objectives of the college's educational program. If a beneficial situation exists, the prospective student will be invited to enroll in the college.

Applicants are expected to register within 30 days of their acceptance by paying a $125.00 enrollment fee.  Prior to matriculation, all accepted applicants must, at a minimum, verify high school graduation or General Equivalency Diploma (GED) by submitting a copy of their final high school transcript showing a final grade point average and date of graduation or copy of their GED certificate, whichever is applicable.
