In order for an application to be considered complete and ready for review, we must have the online application, official high school transcripts and SAT/ACT test scores. (Other documents may be required depending on the individual situation. The student will be notified via email if additional information is required.)
Official transcripts must be submitted using one of the two methods listed below:

Admissions and Records
1141 Wallace Drive
Dothan, AL 36303
Conditional admission may be granted to applicants if the College has not received proof that they have satisfied one of the admission requirements.
If all required admission records are not received by Wallace Community College prior to issuance of first-term grades, the grades are reported on the transcript; however, the transcript will be put on hold pending receipt of admissions records. The hold is removed only on receipt of all required admission records. Students will not be allowed to enroll for a second semester unless all required admission records have been received by the College prior to registration for the second semester. The responsibility for providing all required documents rests with the student.
Reservations can be made by reviewing and scheduling an available date and time on our Visit Us page.

Since the K12 system and postsecondary institutions are governed by two separate disability laws, a student’s IEP/504 plan does not automatically transfer over to the college setting. As such, it is the student’s responsibility to seek out accommodations at Wallace Community College as soon as possible. Students may initiate this process by completing the application for disability support services, then submitting to the appropriate DSS Compliance Coordinator, along with supporting documentation. Please click here for more information on the application process and documentation guidelines.
