FAQs
Admissions and Registration

How do I start at WVC?

Start with filling out an application form. Once you have applied, you will need to make an appointment with the counseling office to take ASSET, the placement tool used by Wenatchee Valley College. After taking ASSET, you will be assigned a faculty adviser who specializes in your choice of major.

What is the difference between an application form and a registration form?

Application forms are used for admission to WVC. You must have an application on file in order to register by Web. Registration forms are used to sign up for specific classes each quarter.  You may apply online through the Student Kiosk.

Do you have an application fee?

No, although we do have a $2 registration fee per quarter, paid with tuition and other fees.

Is there an application deadline?

No, although deadlines are set in order to obtain an appointment for registration. Students who miss these deadlines may still register during open registration times.

If I miss a quarter (except for summer), do I need to re-apply?

Yes, and you will keep your same faculty adviser.

Do I need to take ASSET, the placement tool used by WVC?

Assessment is required for all full-time students or any students wanting to take a math or English class for the first time.

Do I need a high school degree to attend WVC?

You will be admitted to WVC if you have a high school diploma or its equivalent, or if your high school class has graduated. Otherwise, you may apply for special admission. Running Start students qualify under special admission. WVC offers classes to help students prepare for the GED (general educational development) examination, and the GED exams are given periodically on both WVC campuses.
