Under the provisions of the Texas Education Code, Section 51.931, a Texas resident is entitled to apply for admission and elect to have all academic course work earned 10 or more years prior to the requested enrollment date ignored for admissions purposes.
The following description of the Academic Fresh Start Program should be read carefully. Be sure you understand the terms of this program and agree to its stipulations before signing. Upon receipt of this signed acknowledgement, admissions application and all supporting documents, you will be considered for admission for the semester or summer session you choose under the provisions of the Academic Fresh Start Program pursuant to Section 51.931, Texas Education Code.
The Academic Fresh Start Program is available to Texas residents who have applied to McLennan Community College with all the necessary credentials submitted to the Office of Student Admissions.
If you request the Academic Fresh Start by signing the Academic Fresh Start acknowledgement, all academic work (including MCC course work) that was earned ten or more years prior to the starting date of the semester in which you seek to enroll will not be considered in determining your eligibility for admission.
Course work (either from MCC or elsewhere) ignored for admission purposes will remain on the student's official MCC academic transcript. However, it will not be factored into the cumulative GPA, and it cannot be used to fulfill McLennan Community College degree or course pre-requisite requirements.
Individuals who choose Academic Fresh Start must meet current published admission criteria for McLennan Community College and must submit official records from all colleges attended.
