Admission Requirements:

  • All students must be a resident of the College district
  • Students must be at least 16 years of age to attend ABSE classes
  • If you are 16 to 17 years old, you must have a high school release or referral from the district where you now live. This applies to in-school and out-of-school youth. The decision to release a student is made by local school district officials in accordance with Oregon Revised Statutes and local school district policy. If you have already graduated from high school or received a GED, you must bring proof of your credential.
