Welcome to the Admissions Process!
Thank you for your interest! To gain admission, you will complete just a few steps.
Keep this site bookmarked and refer back to as we go through the application process together. The entire process involves several steps and you are not “in Job Corps” until the application process is complete and your application has been submitted.
Only when the entire process is done and you have been accepted, will you be given a date or time to report to your assigned Job Corps Center.
Also, understand that you do not pick what Job Corps Center you go to. You are assigned to the nearest center, within the Atlanta Region* that has available slots for the trade that you will choose to study.
Now let's get started with the steps...
