The admissions process is designed to help you dream with God about your future. Ultimately, our dream is to see you live out God’s dream for your life wherever that may take you.
The first step in applying to Valley Creek College is completing the online admission application. This includes applicant information, education history, unofficial transcripts, letter of recommendation, and brief written responses.
Because Valley Creek College partners with Southeastern University (SEU), applicants will also be required to apply for and receive admission to SEU. (Note: Admission to SEU does not guarantee admission to Valley Creek College.)
Eligble applicants will be invited to complete an in-person or virtual interview. We’ll discuss your strengths, aspirations, and why you believe Valley Creek College is a good fit for you.
Following completion of all admission requirements, the Admissions Committee will carefully review your information and contact you regarding your acceptance status and next steps.
Personal Email: You will need a personal email address you check regularly. This will be your username for the Valley Creek College admissions portal and the address we use for all admissions-related communication.
Unofficial Transcripts: You will be required to upload a clear, legible copy of your unofficial transcripts for all high schools, colleges, and universities you have attended. Please ensure all documents are saved as a PDF and your name, and school name are visible.
Letter of Recommendation: You will also be required to upload a letter of recommendation from a mentor, teacher, or spiritual/pastoral leader who can speak to your character, potential, and relationship with Jesus.
Brief Written Responses: Please be prepared to answer the following questions and prompts. (250 words or less per question/prompt).
Applicants may begin the application process up to twelve months prior to their requested enrollment date. If at any time during your admission application you have questions, please reach out to [email protected].

The Southeastern University (SEU) Partner Program allows students to apply for financial aid. The most common financial aid awards available are the Federal Pell Grant, subsidized and unsubsidized student loans, and the parent PLUS loan – all of which are obtained through the FAFSA application (fafsa.gov). Once the FAFSA application is processed successfully, students will receive a tentative award letter from SEU’s Office of Student Financial Services that outlines their expected financial aid for the year.
