What to expect

If you meet all of the eligibility requirements below and would like to apply, you must:

  1. Complete an online questionnaire about your qualifications and CCBC experiences.
  2. From this questionnaire, you will be directed to record a brief video audition. 

If you are among the students selected, you will receive an email from Marketing and Communications with further instructions, so check your email!

The 2025-2026 Fresh Faces application has closed. Please come back next fall if you would like to participate in the future. 

For your application to be considered, both current students and Alumni must meet certain eligibility requirements:

  • Allow CCBC to use your likeness (photo/video) for the purposes of promoting the college.
  • You must be available on October 17, 2025 from 9 a.m.-4 p.m., and for 2-3 hours on October 24 (to be scheduled), for photo shoots on the Catonsville campus. No exceptions. 

There are a few additional requirements for current students:

  • Be enrolled in a certificate, degree or workforce training program at CCBC with either a 2.5 GPA or in good academic standing. 
  • Have already completed one full semester at CCBC. 
  • Plan to attend CCBC in the spring.
  • Be in good financial standing with CCBC.

Now that you're prepped and ready, it's time to submit an application to join the 2025-26 Fresh Faces cohort:

  • This application will take around 10-15 minutes to complete.
  • You will be asked to answer questions about your eligibility and background, along with why you are interested in becoming a Fresh Face of CCBC.
  • Once you complete the online questionnaire, you will be directed to complete the video audition portion of the submission.

Get started

In the video portion of your submission, you will be asked to answer two questions:

  • Why did you choose CCBC?
  • What was your most memorable or impactful experience at CCBC?

You will be given up to one minute and thirty seconds per question to provide an answer. 

Practice your video audition ahead of time 

The application is set up to be completed in one sitting, so here are a few helpful tips to make the process as smooth as possible.

  1. Choose a quiet location. Make sure to record your video audition in a distraction-free zone. 
  2. Check your equipment. Please use a device with a reliable microphone and camera.
  3. Utilize good lighting. We want to see you! Please ensure that the recording space is well-lit and try to avoid harsh shadows. 
  4. Frame your shot. To ensure your face and upper body are visible, position the camera around eye-level.
