You already started.
Let's finish it.
Your credits are still here. Your file is still here. And we saved you a seat.
Maybe it was a job offer you couldn't turn down. A baby. A parent who needed you. A semester that went sideways and never quite came back. Whatever pulled you away from NWC, you left with something most people never get: a head start. This page is about cashing it in.
- Your NWC credits stay on file
- Free application
- Part-time, evening & online options


Let's name the thing you're thinking.
“It's been too long.”
Two years, ten years, twenty. We hear every number, and we welcome back students from all of them. The classes you passed stay on your NWC transcript. Kendle will sit down with you and figure out which ones still count toward the degree you want now.
“I didn't leave on a high note.”
Plenty of people walked out mid-semester with a rough GPA or a balance on the account. You won't be the first, and nobody here is keeping score. Tell us where things stand, and we'll help you work out a clean path back. [REGISTRAR CHECK]
“My life is full now.””
Of course it is. You have a job, bills, and maybe a few small people who think you're a taxi. Part-time works. Evening and online classes work. Two classes a semester still moves you toward the finish line every single term.
You did the hardest part years ago. You showed up, signed up, and earned real credits. Coming back means building on that.
We're ready to help you
fast-track your return.
Call, email or make an appointment with Kendle Jeffs. She'll pull your old NWC record, tell you what still counts, connect you with the Financial Aid Office and advising.
