Admissions

We can help!

Whether you plan to enroll in college for the first time, transfer to Northwest Shoals Community College (NWSCC) from another institution, return to school after time off, or are a current NWSCC student, we can help!

We are located in the Occupational Building (302) on the Phil Campbell campus and the Victor P. Poole Administration Building (100) on the Shoals campus. You are welcome to call our team of Admissions & Enrollment Counselors if you have questions or need assistance.

Your Admission Checklist

If a student wishes to allow NWSCC to release records to parents, grandparents, spouse, guardians, or other specified individuals, they must complete and submit the Release of Personal Information (FERPA) form located in your MyNWSCC account. Information regarding FERPA can be found on the FERPA webpage.

International students should complete the online application and provide additional required documents (e.g. transcripts, financial affidavit, visa, etc.) in order to be accepted to the college. For more information view the College’s International Student Policy in the Catalog.
