Career Pathways

Steps to Enroll

High School students in a qualifying Career and Technical Education (CTE) Career Pathways program may earn college credit by passing an industry certification exam and/or a Career Pathways college-level assessment. You may check with your CTE teacher or with careerpathways@sfcollege.edu to confirm you are in a qualifying CTE program.

Apply for Admission

• Submit a New Application for Admission as a Career Pathways student. You must complete all 10 steps to review and submit.
  Note: If you already have a SFID number, you do not need to re-apply. Please skip to the Permission Form section.
• After you complete and submit, you will receive a confirmation email showing your application is under review. You will be provided with a transaction ID number. Applications will be reviewed and approved within 1-2 weeks of submission. Continue to monitor your email for your approval and acceptance letter.  At that time, you will receive your official SFID number.
• Once you have received your acceptance email, log in to eSantaFe and go to "My Status" to check your progress throughout the admissions process. Please allow up to 2 hours before accessing your SF email through Outlook.
• Students need to record their valid SFID number for future use.
