Fall Term

Fall 2021 term classes will be scheduled anticipating we will remain in the Low Risk category of our Phased Return to Campus Plan, which allows the return to face-to-face programming and services with fewer safety measures.

Enrollment Process

Fall term begins Tuesday, September 7.

Fall course schedules will reflect classes with face-to-face options, as well as the online and alternative formats. You are encouraged to connect with your Admissions Coach or College Advisor, by email or phone, to create a schedule that works best for you. Not sure who your coach or advisor is? Just email admissionscoach@westerntc.edu and we’ll get you connected.

Our admissions process has only minor changes at this time. We are waiving the $30 application fee and some testing requirements. Your Admissions Coach will work with you on the details once you have submitted your application.

Registration may take place online with in-person options later in the summer. Once you’ve completed the admissions process and are accepted to your program, your coach or advisor will walk you through the process one-on-one, or provide you with detailed instructions on how to build your schedule. Check out our Registration Resources for more information on setting up your student accounts, getting your books, and applying for financial aid.

Student Support Services

Our support services are currently available in person and in alternative formats. From advising to financial aid assistance, tutoring, and counseling, we will continue using online, email, and video conferencing technology to connect with you for any needs you may have. If you are coming on campus for in-person services, you are encouraged to call ahead and make an appointment.
