PRCC advises you to contact each college or university you have previously attended and request that an official transcript be sent to PRCC. While PRCC only requires the official transcript from your most recently attended institution, we cannot award transfer credits without it. If you are currently enrolled at another college or university, please wait until your final grades are posted for your last semester and ensure you are not enrolled in any future semesters before sending the official transcript.
WHAT'S NEXT
After Applying?
Within the next two business days, you’ll get an email with your acceptance status. That email will include an attachment with your student account credentials, which will allow you to login to our college systems through RiverGuide. While you’re waiting for this, we recommend that you learn more about PRCC and explore the topics below.
Now that you know about scheduling your advising appointment and getting your class schedule, let’s think about housing. Do you plan to live on campus? If so, visit the Housing Portal tile in RiverGuide and complete your application. Then, click here to learn more about life on campus. We begin accepting housing applications for the new academic year (fall-spring) on December 1 annually. For example, a student wishing to move into campus housing for Fall 2025 can apply starting December 1, 2024.
Have you completed your federal student aid application? We encourage you to complete this because not only does it allow us to consider you for federal aid, it’s also used to determine your eligibility for other grants, scholarships, and loans. Head over to the Financial Aid page to learn more. If you’ve already completed your federal student aid application, click the Financial Aid tile in RiverGuide to stay up-to-date on your aid offers and requirements.
Visit our Business Office page to learn more about PRCC’s tuition & fees, along with ways to pay for college.
Click here to learn more about our academic, career/technical, and allied health plans of study. If you’re planning to join one of PRCC’s career/technical or allied health programs, be aware that several of these programs require a separate program application. You can learn more by clicking the name of the program that interests you on the career/technical or allied health page.
