Class Cancellation
In cases where the instructor will be absent for the day, a notice may be posted at the entrance of the classroom or lab, students may also be notified via email, Blackboard, or other method as deemed appropriate by the instructor. Students should check with their instructor for the method(s) by which the instructor will notify students of a cancelled session.
Course Evaluations
Students have the opportunity to evaluate their courses. Information on course evaluations is available through Blackboard.
Credit for Prior Learning
Whether you are transferring in credits from another college or have prior learning knowledge and skills that directly relate to the program curriculum, we make it easy to earn credits. It is possible to be granted credit for career-related knowledge and skills you’ve already mastered. To learn more about Prior Learn- ing Assessments, visit www.fvtc.edu/CreditForPriorLearning.
Credit Transfer Opportunities
Whether you are an incoming student, transferring to another two-year college or pursuing your Bache- lor’s Degree, we make it easy to seamlessly transfer your credits. With full accreditation by the Higher Learning Commission, we offer credit transfer agreements with more than 65 two and four year colleges. For more information, visit www.fvtc.edu/TransferCredit.
Dean’s List
The Dean’s List is compiled and made public at the end of each academic term. For a full description of the policy related to the Dean’s List, go to www.fvtc.edu/CollegePolicies and select “Academic Honors” under “Instruction”. For the current Dean’s List, visit www.fvtc.edu/academic-records.
Double Majors
In some instances, students may want to complete two related programs. Students who pursue a double major will not necessarily have to accumulate the total number of credits required in both programs, provided they have completed all of the required courses for both majors. In most cases, there are courses that are common to both curricula.
Enrollment Appointments (Date/Time)
Enrollment appointments are the date and time when you can register for classes. It is not an in-person appointment with FVTC staff. While we are happy to assist you in person, the enrollment appointment is simply the date and time that the online registration system opens for your class registrations. You may register for your classes at your appointment date and time or any time thereafter. You can find your Enrollment Appointment by logging in to your MyFVTC account.
