Qualified students applying to most programs are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis during enrollment periods. A standard high school diploma or GED™ is not a prerequisite for most programs; however, it is highly recommended.  Students who do not demonstrate attainment of literacy grade levels at the 6th grade level or higher in Reading, Math, and Language on a commonly accepted literacy assessment will be referred to an Adult Education program for developmental education, prior to enrollment at FMTC. Lack of English language skills will not be a barrier to admission and participation. The District may assess each student\u0026#8217;s ability to benefit from specific programs through placement tests and counseling, and, if necessary, will provide services or referrals to better prepare students for successful participation.
