Information for Non-F1 Students

We’re glad you’re here! To apply to Cape Fear Community College, follow our new student steps . In addition to the general admission process, you may be required to submit immigration documents. Please review the following information, and if applicable, submit the appropriate documentation to the Admissions Office:

Permanent Residents

Permanent residents are required to submit a copy of their valid permanent resident card to the Office of Admissions.

Students with Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival (DACA) Status

Applicants with valid deferred action for childhood arrival (DACA) are eligible to attend curriculum courses and must submit a copy of the DACA approval notice to the Office of Admissions.

Foreign Transcripts

Foreign transcripts must be evaluated and translated (if applicable), by a current member of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services ( naces.org ) or a current member of the Association of International Credential Evaluators ( aice-eval.org ). Completed evaluations, along with copies of the original transcript(s), should be sent directly from the evaluation agency to CFCC Admissions. If the evaluation is sent directly to you, in order for it to be considered official, it must remain in the original sealed envelope. Once opened, it is no longer considered official.
