Table Rock Campus
Entry Requirements
Before you get started, it’s important to understand how this program works. The Industrial Mechanics & Maintenance Technology Associate of Applied Science degree is available only to students who are accepted into an approved Rogue Community College apprenticeship program: Millwright, Boiler Operator and Airframe & Powerplant Mechanic. As a registered apprentice, you earn college credit while completing your apprenticeship and additional required coursework, allowing you to make steady progress toward an associate degree. Because this is a special admission program, you must meet specific entry requirements before you can apply.
Admission Requirements
Because this is a special admission program, you must meet the following requirements to be considered:
- Be at least 18 years old.
- Hold a high school diploma or GED®.
- Be accepted into an approved RCC apprenticeship program.
- Submit a completed program application by the posted deadline.
Applying for an apprenticeship can take time, and available openings may be limited. For some trades, being placed in an applicant pool does not guarantee immediate employment, as candidates are contacted when openings become available. Many students continue working while they wait to be placed.
Credit for Prior Learning
