The parent/guardian who is overseeing the homeschooler can sign for the school counselor. Please provide any transcript that you may have. Home Schooled students should sign up for the NCC Placement Test for English and/or Math here to assist with placement in college courses (as a transcript is reviewed).
The College Connections Team recommends 1-2 courses per semester, but this is a personal decision. Remember that you will be taking college level courses which is a different workload than you have experienced before. Also, keep in mind your high school course load, activities, work, and also that each course has a financial cost including the cost of books/supplies.
There are a few reasons this may be happening:
- You didn’t clear out the items in your inbox (top right). Please review our video on How to Access Workday here for further assistance.
- You do not meet the prerequisite for the course you selected. You can see those guidelines listed on the left hand side, above the “troubleshoot” area.
- If you’re recently sent in your FERPA form and/or transcript please allow 5-7 business days for our staff to update your record which includes updating your GPA. There are several courses that require a cumulative GPA of 3.0/83% (English eligible).
- If you have not sent your FERPA form or transcript, both should be sent to dualenrollment@northampton.edu
NCC offers several course formats as well as schedule types (various start/end dates throughout the semester). Learn more here.
You can view course offerings outside of Workday using our Course Search Tool here.
The College Connections Team recommends you start with what colleges call General Education courses: English 1 & 2, Introduction to Psychology, or Introduction to Communication. Our General Studies Specialized Diploma is a great place to start as well as it encompasses many of these core general education courses.
