Admissions
The Spring Semester Will Be Here Soon!
The DCC campus is open to the public, and the Admissions Office is working hard to help you keep moving forward. You can learn about the academic, financial and other benefits of attending DCC by participating in an information session or presentation. Sign up today!
We're offering a variety of workshops and info sessions, based on your needs.
Learn More about DCC
We are offering campus tours of our Poughkeepsie and Fishkill locations in addition to our virtual information sessions. Click the link above to get to the portal and choose the session you'd like to sign up for. Pre-event health surveys and masks are required to attend the in-person events.
During these sessions, you will have the opportunity to meet individually with an admissions counselor to discuss your specific interests and questions about DCC. You may select either an online video conversation or a phone call. Register to schedule an appointment to meet with an admissions counselor virtually. These are not advising appointments. If you need advising, please email act@sunydutchess.edu.
Do you have questions about financial aid, your bill, or student residency requirements? Schedule an appointment to meet with a representative either via telephone or Zoom.
Complete the Application Process
This is a hands-on workshop where we will walk you through the online DCC application. We recommend that you have a computer or tablet for this session as we will be using a browser with multiple tabs open. These workshops are held on Wednesdays at 4 p.m. Click the link above to get to the DCC Admissions Event portal, then find the session you want to sign up for.
In addition, please be aware of the following:
-
After you apply for admission, be sure to check your application status at connect.sunydutchess.edu/status.

If you haven’t already sent us your high school transcript, please check with your school counselor to see if it can be sent electronically. If you have credits from another college, please check that college's website and request that your transcripts be sent online.
