Students can apply before the beginning of any term, but the ideal time to apply for high school seniors who plan to attend, or are thinking of attending Ohlone, is March, since students are given priority registration status.  Apply if Ohlone is your fall-back college too.  Every March, an orientation is presented by Ohlone staff at WHS.  Students can then apply and take the required placement tests in math and English that all entering students must take in order to be placed in the appropriate level in math and English courses.  If students miss this date, they can apply later and choose from other placement test times posted on the Ohlone College website.  Students planning to attend other California Community Colleges should contact that college for application and placement test information.
