Admissions & Records

New River Community College welcomes applications from any person who has a high school diploma, a GED certificate, or who is 18 years old and in any case can benefit from a program. High school students may enroll with approval of their high school principal. New students and those who have not enrolled within the past three years must submit an application. Applications are available on campus in Dublin, at the Christiansburg site, in class schedules, or by download. Students planning to work toward a degree, diploma, or certificate should submit transcripts from other colleges/universities attended. Students who are over 18 years old but do not have a high school diploma or GED, must indicate "ability to benefit" from college placement tests if pursuing a curriculum.
