Provisional admission to baccalaureate and associate degree programs may be given if a student has one of the following:

Three O-level GCE or CXC passes and has mature age recognized in his/her country of origin and has satisfied the college that he/she can do college level work. Individual evaluation will be made based on such evidence as work experience, examination results, interviews, prior academic work.

• For Trinidad applicants, the mature age is 30 years.

Note: When students are accepted on a mature age basis and lack O-levels (3 are normally required), they may take an additional 18 credits of first year college course work at USC (6 credits per missing O level) to meet admission requirements. Such credits will be included on the Andrews University transcript but students need to be advised that they need the additional work in order to graduate with an AU degree.

• For applicants from Caribbean countries outside Trinidad the mature age recognized for university entrance in the country of origin will apply.

Three O-level GCE or CXC passes and a GED certificate with an average composite score of 45 with no single score below 40 on the GED examination.
