Admissions & Aid

Thank you for your interest in Johnson State College. This section provides information about admissions and financial aid at JSC.

Admissions

In considering students for admission to JSC, the Admissions Office looks at a wide range of factors. We start by carefully evaluating each candidate's academic preparation, as reflected in transcripts, course selection, letters of recommendation, SAT or ACT scores, personal essay and class rank. In addition, we look closely at personal qualities such as motivation, ambition and individualism, as demonstrated through involvement in extracurricular activities and community service.

Financial Aid

JSC understands that many students have to stretch to pay for their education. Our Office of Financial Aid administers comprehensive financial aid packages that generally consist of need-based grants, low-interest loans and college employment in the Federal Work-Study Program. (Nearly 80% of our students receive financial aid in one or more of these three types of aid.) We also offer various types of merit-based scholarships.
