Admission

Admission is guaranteed only when all program criteria and responsibilities are met. Enrollment is processed on a first-come, first-served basis. (Some programs require a physical examination, immunizations, a high school diploma or GED, and/or entrance assessment and/or interviews.) The course descriptions on the following pages list the specific program requirements. All items must be received by the Office of Adult Education in order for your application to be processed.

The Technical Institute is a division of Camden County Technical Schools and anyone 18 years of age or older and not currently attending high school, is eligible for admission. You may apply by mailing the application located in the center of the brochure available through the admissions office, or in person at either of our two campuses. For more information, please call 856-767-7002, ext. 5435 Monday - Thursday from 8 am - 10 pm or Friday from 7:30 am - 3:30 pm.

Requirements and Testing

Prospective students should apply for admission as soon as possible since class size is limited. Candidates who are currently in high school should submit their applications in their senior year.

To apply, just complete the application form and return it to the Technical Institute, 343 Berlin Cross Keys Road, Sicklerville, NJ 08081. A copy of your high school transcript or General Equivalency Diploma (GED) is required for many programs and must accompany your application. Please note that some adult education programs do not require a high school diploma or GED.

Pre-admission orientations will be conducted in several program areas. If an orientation is required, you will be contacted. Some programs may also require a medical examination by your family doctor. Additional immunizations may be required for health programs.

A satisfactory rating must be achieved on an entrance assessment for admission into some programs. To see if this applies to the program you are interested in, please refer to the course description. The description will state "Entrance Assessment Required" if appropriate. If an entrance assessment is required, HSPTII (High School Proficiency Test) scores that are not more than five years old may be submitted in lieu of sitting for the placement test. Successful completion of 60 college credits or more would also waive assessment. Submit your college transcript with the application.

For your convenience, you may walk into one of our test sites during the evening without an appointment. When you arrive, check in at the main office. A current photo ID must be shown to the proctor in order to be admitted to the testing room.
