Prospective Student

How to Apply

Entrance Examinations

Prerequisites for entrance to UCCI are 4 Passes at grade C or above (2 of which must be in Math and English), in either CXC, GCSE, or other qualified examinations. Should an applicant not have these qualifications, they may be asked to sit the Accuplacer placement exam at UCCI. Each applicant sitting the Accuplacer exam will be charged a fee of $50 CI. Scheduling may be arranged through Ms. Cahill, Deputy Registrar or the Librarian, Mrs. Kong.

Making an Application

If you’d like to enroll in a programme, you’ll want to first submit an application. Click here to visit our online application system and be sure to submit the following along with your application. NB: An application is not complete until all items are received from a prospective student.

  • Passport sized full face photo
  • High School Transcript
  • Certified copy of External Examination Grades
  • In the case of mature applicants a letter from the employer in lieu of grades which states the years of employment and clearly indicates its relation to the field of study intended
  • Application fee ($25 non-refundable)

If an application has been approved, the Registrar’s office will provide an official acceptance letter which will also include your Student ID number. Please keep this letter for your files as you will be asked to provide your Student ID through routine correspondence with the institution and in order to access grades.

Registering for Classes?

If your application is accepted, a Student ID number is provided and must be used when registering for classes every semester. Registration may be completed with the assistance of an advisor and/or through UCCI’s Student Information System.

Can I apply if I’m not Caymanian?

If you are not a Caymanian, you must meet the Cayman Islands Immigration requirements. Typically, students will be required to submit an acceptance letter from UCCI with their application for a student visa. This process can take several months.
