NW-SCC holds virtual summer, fall registration starting April 13

Northwest-Shoals Community College has begun summer and fall registration – but a little differently than usual. Advising and registration are being conducted exclusively online.

Registration began Monday for students with 30-plus earned hours and will open Wednesday for students with fewer than 30 earned hours and on April 20 for new students.

Summer classes begin May 26.

According to college officials, NW-SCC is working to “make decisions that are in the best interests of the health, safety and academic success of its students.”

“The health and safety of our students, faculty and staff come first,” said NW-SCC President Dr. Glenda Colagross. “We believe we have put together a new virtual registration process that will best help our students register for the summer and fall semesters in our current environment.”

 NW-SCC staff will be available by email and WebEx chat links to meet all the needs of current and prospective students and answer any questions they have about summer or fall registration. Faculty, staff and administration will do their best to respond to all emailed questions on the same day.

 NW-SCC has set-up a summer/fall Registration webpage, www.nwscc.edu/2020-summerfall-registration, to walk current and prospective students through the registration process.

Students can sign up for advising appointments online, which are conducted in a one-on-one virtual environment where students and advisers have the opportunity to interact face-to-face through the college’s WebEx communication software.
