Sign Up For New Student Orientation and Advising
Step 1: Complete all application and enrollment steps. Students who do not complete all enrollment steps will not be permitted to remain in their orientation and will have to reschedule to a new date. Steps in the enrollment process include:
- Complying with the bacterial meningitis law
- Completing the Go FAARR and Test Prep Modules
- Taking the TSI Placement Exam or providing qualifying exemption scores
- Completing Refresher courses (if applicable)

Step 2: All First Time In College students must attend a mandatory New Student Orientation where they will become more familiar with NVC, receive recommendations on which courses to register for, learn about payment options, and prepare for the first day of class.
If you need to reschedule your orientation for a new date, you MUST first cancel your old session before signing up for a new date. Otherwise, the system will not allow you to sign up for a new orientation date and you will receive an error message that says you are already signed up.
