Advising

STEP 1: Identify the categories below that fit your circumstances

I am a recent high school graduate (within the last 18 months):

• Please contact your high school to have your official transcript sent to Enrollment Services (Black Hawk College, Enrollment Services, 6600 34th Ave., Moline, IL  61265, or email: Registrar@bhc.edu)
• Also send us your ACT/SAT scores. To request a score report, visit the ACT website or the SAT website.

I have earned college credits at another community college or university:

• Contact your transfer institution(s) to request an official transcript be sent to Enrollment Services. Once you verify your transcript(s) have been sent, send an email from your myBlackHawk account (see Step 2) and request that we evaluate your transfer coursework.

I have not attended another college/university and it has been more than 18 months since I graduated from high school:

• You will need to complete the ACCUPLACER test. Prepare for the test.
• Sign up for the test:
  • Quad-Cities Campus Testing Center - 309-796-5100 or sign up online
  • East Campus Testing Center - 309-854-1732 or 309-854-1705 or ECILC@bhc.edu

Note: Students who are going to major in the following career programs do not need ACT or SAT scores, nor complete the Accuplacer to schedule an appointment: Equine Science, Horse Science Technology, Veterinary Assistant, Non-Transfer Agribusiness, Non-Transfer Agriculture Production, Automotive Technology, Agriculture Mechanics, Certified Nurse Assistant and Welding.

STEP 2: Confirm your myBlackHawk account.

• After you filled out the admissions application, you received an email with your myBlackHawk login information. Use that information to confirm you have access to myBlackHawk.
• For help accessing myBlackHawk, view the myBlackHawk Portal Instructions. 

STEP 3: View Class Offerings and jump-start your schedule

• Browse our schedule of classes and registration information.
• Determine if you will be a full-time or part-time student.
• Prepare a list of questions for your Advisor.
