• Apply to Montgomery College and pay the $25 one-time application fee.
• Submit documentation from your home institution showing that you have fulfilled the prerequisites(s) indicated in the current Montgomery College catalog for the course you wish to take.

The form must specify the course the student may take at Montgomery College; this will enable the College to waive the requirements for prerequisite checks and assessment tests.
