Transfer Dismissal

Dismissal from another College/University

I was dismissed/suspended from another College or University. My advisor told me I need to complete hours at a Community College in order to transfer back.

If you are transferring to Northwest Vista College after being dismissed from another school (to include other colleges from the Alamo Colleges District), you will need to complete the Academic Dismissal process prior to being eligible to enroll in courses. 

What is the process to petition to come to Northwest Vista College?

Please view our Academic Dismissal Petition Process Page for more information.

Transfer students are required to submit an official copy of their prior college transcript to NVC as part of the admissions process.

Important Information:
The Certified Academic Advisor will help you prepare a plan of action. 

If you are planning to transfer back to your previous institution, we highly recommend you discuss the following items with your current advisor prior to enrolling at NVC: 

• How many credit hours/ semesters do I need to complete successfully before I can transfer back?
• Are there any specific courses that I should enroll in first while attending Northwest Vista College?
• How will the courses I take at NVC impact my GPA there once I transfer back?
• Once I have met all the necessary requirements, what is the process in order to transfer back?
