Academic Amnesty
As a student who has previously attended NCC, you may be eligible for academic amnesty. In order to be eligible for academic amnesty, you must meet the following conditions:
- You must have not taken any courses at NCC for a period of at least three years from the last semester of attendance.
- You must apply for Academic Amnesty before the start of your second semester after re-admission.
Academic Amnesty provides the following:
- All grades taken during the student’s previous time at the College will no longer be used to calculate the student’s new cumulative GPA. However, grades of C- and above taken during the student’s previous time at the College will be used to meet course requirements (where appropriate), subject to the approval of the Vice President of Academic Affairs
- Even though previous grades will not be used to calculate the new cumulative GPA, all previous grades will remain on the student’s transcript.
