Admissions and Records

Registration Information

  • If you are a new student, submit an application for admission at least 72 hours before your planned class registration time.
  • Check the catalog to ensure you have met the prerequisites for the classes you intend to enroll in. It is the student's responsibility to ensure prerequisites are met.
  • Schedule an appointment with a counselor if you need assistance selecting classes or to take placement test.
  • High school students must have a completed high school authorization form to register for classes.
  • Students add and drop classes through Web-REG. Register early to get classes at the days and times you want.
  • Students are assigned a WNC ID number (Example: W00001111) when their application is processed. The student ID or social security number is required to access Web-REG. Students may obtain their ID number through Web-REG or by coming to Admissions and Records with a valid photo ID.
  • Web-REG will ask for a PIN (Personal Identification Number). The college-set PIN is a four digit number, the date of birth (two-digit year followed by two-digit month). You will then be asked to select a private PIN number. If you have forgotten your PIN you will need to submit a valid photo ID to Admissions and Records to have your PIN number reset.
  • Check your schedule using Web-REG to ensure you have registered correctly. Periodically check your schedule throughout the semester to make sure your fees have been paid and that you are still correctly registered. This is the student's responsibility.
  • Audit status is only for those who do not want grades or course credit.
  • Pay fees when you finish registering for classes (no later than the published deadlines).
  • Print a copy of your schedule to take to the bookstore to buy your books and to verify location of classes.
  • Exchange requests to one full-term class for another with the same amount of credits must be submitted by the end of the second week of the semester. Even exchange of class/credit will remove the dropped class completely from your transcript. Classes dropped after the 100 percent refund period that are not "even exchanged" will remain on your transcript with a grade of "W," and may affect financial aid for students.
  • Students may add full-term courses through Web-REG through the first week of instruction, or short-term courses may be added no later than the first day of class. To enroll in a course after these dates, or to enroll in a full course, a Special Enrollment authorization form with instructor signature and approval must be submitted to Admissions and Records. After the second week of instruction Division Chair signature and approval is also required for full-term classes. Registration after the sixth week of the semester for full-term courses is subject to approval by the Registrar.
  • Submission of a Special Enrollment Authorization form does not guarantee the request will be processed. Students are responsible to check to see if their request was granted and to verify the accuracy of their course schedule through Web-REG. Students must pay for courses approved for special enrollment immediately.
  • Students may register for up to 18 credits through Web-REG. Additional Registration requires approval by a WNC counselor.
  • Be aware of refund deadlines for dropping classes and books.
  • Withdraw from classes by the published deadline if you are unable to attend or complete them. Students who do not withdraw themselves are subject to receive a grade issued by the instructor which could be a failing "F" grade. Courses dropped by the student after the 100% refund period will remain on a student transcript with a grade of "W." A "W" grade does not affect grade point average but may affect financial aid and scholarship eligibility.
  • Keep your address and phone number current in Web-REG.

Invoices are mailed during the fall and spring semesters to students who register well in advance of the semester start date. If you do not receive an invoice it is your responsibility to access Web-REG to verify the amount you owe. It is the student's responsibility to be aware of all semester deadlines, including refunds and fee payments. Students who do not pay fees by published deadlines may be removed from class rosters. However, if a payment is made to a student's account for a previously registered class, or from any other source such as financial aid, a scholarship, a third party, etc. the student may not be removed from class rosters.

Students are responsible for all costs associated with registration, regardless of any invoice that may or may not have been received, and regardless of attendance or class participation unless classes are dropped within the 100 percent refund period.
