Methods of Admission



Prospective students are responsible for meeting all admission requirements. Failure to meet all requirements will cause the student’s transcript to be withheld and the student will be blocked from future registrations. Admission to Navarro College may be by one of the following methods:

1. High School Graduate. An applicant who is a graduate of an accredited high school, both public and private, will be admitted to Navarro College upon presentation of a properly authenticated high school transcript verifying that the student has graduated. High school students are strongly recommended to follow the State Board of Education’s recommended 24-unit High School Program to help be fully prepared for college following graduation.

2. High School Equivalency (HSE).  An applicant who is not a high school graduate may be admitted by successfully completing a test of high school equivalency and providing a GED, TASC, or HiSET transcript with passing scores.  The GED and TASC tests are administered at Navarro College and applicants interested in gaining admission by this method should inquire at the Testing Center or the Adult Education Program office.

3. Individual Approval. Students may apply for individual approval at the Office of Admissions. The student must be enrolled and attending the Navarro College Adult Education classes/HSE class and will agree to attempt to pass the HSE prior to the beginning of the next semester and failure to do so will be justification for the student to not be allowed to enroll the following semester. If a student is not attending HSE classes, they understand that they will be dropped from their college classes.

4. Transfer From Another College or University.  Students transferring to Navarro College from other institutions of higher education must turn in official transcripts from all U.S. (and U.S. territories) institutions attended, to the Office of Admissions and Records.  Transcripts must be no older than three years from the date the transcript was printed to comply with the state records and retention law, established by the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. Students seeking admission after having not attended for a year or longer must also submit a new application.

 

Credit for courses in which a passing grade ("D" or better) has been earned may be transferred to Navarro College from the following institutions:

    1. Institutions that are regionally accredited;
      • Higher Learning Commission
      • Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Higher Education 
      • New England Association of Schools and Colleges 
      • Northwest Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges 
      • Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges
      • Western Association of Schools and Colleges Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges 
      • Western Association of Schools and Colleges Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges

    2. Institutions that are not regionally accredited.


      Students transferring credits from these institutions will be evaluated by the Executive Dean on a case-by-case basis. Factors that will be considered relating to these courses include:

      • Course Grade;
      • Contact/Credit Hours;
      • Student Learning Outcomes;
      • Faculty Credentials;
      • Level;
      • Content;
      • Quality;
      • Comparability; and
      • Degree program relevance.

      It shall be the student’s responsibility to provide all transcripts and documents necessary to evaluate any prior educational experience.

    3. Students who complete coursework at colleges and universities outside the United States will be considered on a case by case basis. All foreign credentials submitted to the college must include the original plus a certified English translation. An official evaluation of foreign credentials must be completed before transfer credit can be granted. The student is responsible for arranging for credential evaluation. A list of acceptable professional evaluation services is available in the Office of International Students.  A student is expected to pay all costs of translation and/or evaluation of foreign credentials.

      Students who register but fail to list on the admissions application other colleges or universities attended, or who are otherwise ineligible to attend Navarro College, will be subject to dismissal with forfeiture of all tuition and fees.

      5. Home School: Students who have completed high school in a home school setting must provide a home school high school transcript clearly displaying the following information:
