WNC has varying admissions criteria that allows any adult who can benefit from instruction at the college to enroll.
WNC does not require new students to provide transcripts of previous educational experiences. Any adult may enroll as a non-degree seeking student.
General admission, however, does not necessarily guarantee admission into specific programs or classes.
WNC has admissions criteria for students who declare their education objective to seek a degree or certificate of achievement. Students who have graduated from high school or have obtained a high school equivalency diploma such as the GED, HISET or TASC will satisfy admissions requirements.
Students may be admitted as degree/certificate seeking under alternate criteria by satisfying one of the providing criteria:
- Provide evidence of placement test scores at levels that demonstrate college readiness; or
- Provide official transcripts from a regionally accredited institution demonstrating successful completion of six college units in English, math, or other general education course, or take the equivalent at WNC.
All new degree or certificate seeking students who have never attended any college will be required to attend a new student orientation session, and meet with a counselor before enrolling for classes.
For information regarding academic programs or classes, contact a counselor or the appropriate academic division.
