Deadlines and Admissions Criteria

Many Indian River State College career training programs are selective-admissions programs with special deadlines and admissions criteria. If you’re interested in one of these offerings, please consult with an Indian River State College advisor well before the intended term of enrollment.

Florida Statutes require students in career training programs that have 450 hours or more to pass the Basic Skills Requirement, except for those students who meet the state standards for an exemption.

Non-exempt students who are enrolled in a post-secondary adult vocational program greater than 180 clock-hours must complete a basic skills examination within the first six weeks after admission to the program. The Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE) is administered by Assessment Centers at each Indian River State College campus. Minimum basic skills grade levels in mathematics and language must be met.
