Admissions
How do you know if CSB is right for you?
Just ask our admissions staff! It’s their job to help you determine if our academic
opportunities and career-training resources meet your needs.
The admissions team at CSB is dedicated to helping you explore your educational
opportunities. We’re here to help and invite you to visit our facility. We will
sit down with you and address your personal needs, answer your questions, and give
you a guided tour of the building.
We strongly believe the only way to know if a school is right for you is to visit
the campus. When you visit a CSB campus, an admissions representative will meet
with you to address your individual questions and needs. We will review course requirements,
enrollment procedures, tuition rates, class scheduling, financial aid and other
topics. You’ll also get a personal tour of the campus – the perfect opportunity
to see everything in action! Peek in classrooms, see our faculty at work, interact
with our student body, and get a feel for what it’s like to be a CSB student.
Frequently asked questions:
How much is tuition?
Tuition varies from program to program. Our admissions representative will be more
than happy to discuss tuition with prospective students at length during your campus
visit.
Will I need to travel between campuses?
Absolutely not. All of your classes will be held at the campus where you enroll.
What are the requirements for admission?
To be accepted into one of CSB's programs, a prospective student must be a high
school graduate or possess a GED. An official high school transcript or GED scores
must be submitted. An application for admission also must be submitted to be considered
for enrollment. The application can be obtained by visiting the school or

All incoming students are required to complete a no charge pre-enrollment evaluation.
This evaluation will be scheduled after the prospective student has submitted an
application for admission.
What happens after I submit an application for admission?
Upon receipt of an application for admission, an admissions representative will
contact you to schedule a financial aid appointment as well as an appointment to
complete the pre-enrollment evaluation. These appointments can be scheduled together
on the same day, if desired. A letter of acceptance will be processed and mailed.
From that point forward your admissions representative will work with you through
the entire enrollment process – right up to the first day of classes.
Will my credits from another school be accepted?
Transfer of credits from other accredited institutions is reviewed on a case by
case basis. A request for transfer of credits must be made prior to starting classes
at CSB, and a transcript must be submitted.
Can I apply some of my high school courses toward my studies at CSB? Can a high
school student take classes at CSB and have those classes count toward a high school
diploma?
CSB welcomes articulation agreements with high schools. Several subjects can be
waived, or articulated, by recent high school graduates. Students should contact
their guidance counselor for more information. If an articulation agreement does
not exist between CSB and the high school, the student should contact CSB to arrange
a meeting with the admissions department to discuss subjects that may be waived.
Will any of my CSB credits transfer to other institutions?
The transfer of credits is always up to the receiving institution. Many factors
come into play when considering the transfer of credits, such as the grade earned,
similarity of curriculum, and length of time from course completion to transfer
credit request. While most CSB students graduate with the intent of immediately
beginning their career, some graduates will opt to continue their studies with the
goal of earning a four-year degree. To help those students accomplish this goal,
CSB has partnered with several highly recognized institutions for the transfer of
CSB credits into a four-year program. These schools include:
-Central Pennsylvania College
-Eastern University
-Elizabethtown College
-Slippery Rock University
-University of Phoenix
Many CSB graduates have gone on to successfully finish studies at these schools.
For more information on the transfer of credits to these institutions, CSB recommends
contacting the institutions directly.
