• An unofficial copy of college transcripts if previous college courses have been taken   
• If no college courses have been taken, a copy of high school transcripts

*Only the Reading score on the COMPASS is required for MCC Program admission, but taking all sections of the COMPASS is now a requirement of admission to Wallace State, unless you have passed Math and English courses at the college level.  Your scores on the additional sections of the COMPASS test will not affect your standing in the MCC Program.
