  2. Placement Testing: Find out if you need to schedule placement testing. See if you meet the testing exemptions listed here. If you need to schedule placement testing, please don’t worry. We want you to succeed, and together we can get you positioned for achieving your goals. Contact admissions@chesapeake.edu to get a testing slip.

  4. Academic Advising and Registration: Meet with an Academic Advisor to select courses in your program, and to register for the upcoming semester.
  5. Financial Aid and Scholarships: First complete the FAFSA, indicating the Academic Year(s) you plan to attend. Then apply for Chesapeake College Institutional Scholarships.
  6. Pay Tuition and Fees: Pay either when you register, or by the due date on your bill. A deferred tuition payment plan is available for those whose bill is over $100. Learn more here.
  7. Attend the New Student Orientation Before each fall and spring semester, a new student orientation session offers information about college activities, services, and policies. Call 410-822-5400 ext. 2250 for more information
