5 frequently asked questions Do you offer classes that will not conflict with my work schedule? Wilson Community College offers both day and night classes in many areas. Usually students can take classes at times that do not conflict with their work schedule. A few of the programs, such as Fire Protection and Criminal Justice, have classes taught both day and night to accommodate students who work rotating shifts. Distance education courses also offer flexibility for many students. 2. Do I have to take a test? This depends upon the program you wish to enter. For Associate Degree and Diploma programs, a test may be required for placement purposes in English, reading, math, and computer skills. For certificate programs, no test is required. College transfer students must take a biology placement test unless they have transferable college level science course credits. SAT and ACT scores may be used for placement purposes. Previous college credit may also be used for course placement, thus making testing unnecessary. 3. How long will it take to complete my program? This depends on the program in which you enroll as well as whether you enroll on a full-time or part-time basis. Associate Degree Programs usually take two years (full-time), Diploma programs take one year (full-time), and Certificate programs may take only one or two semesters (full-time). Part-time students will take longer to complete the requirements for graduation. 4. Is there a fee to apply or take the test? No, there is no application fee or testing fee for admissions. In some cases, we can accept recent placement test scores from other colleges. 5. How soon should I apply? Apply as soon as you know you want to attend Wilson Community College. By submitting your application early, you will have more time to complete the application and take the placement test and may be eligible for early registration. You also need to request transcripts from your high school and any other colleges you have attended. It takes about four weeks for financial aid applications to be processed. By applying now, you will be admitted to the College and will be ready to begin when the next semester starts. In programs with high demand and limited enrollment (such as nursing) the multi-level admissions process begins as much as six months prior to the up coming fall semester. 6. Do you help students find jobs? Yes, we have career placement counselors who help our students find jobs. They host career fairs, workshops, and classroom presentations. Career placement counselors also assist with resume preparation and provide resume referrals to local employers. 7. What if I need help studying for my classes? Wilson Community College offers tutoring and other academic help through Student Support Services and Smarthinking online tutoring. For more information on these services, contact a counselor or your advisor. 8. Where is your campus located? The campus is located at 902 Herring Ave. (NC Highway 42 East) Wilson, North Carolina.
