Continuing Education students enrolling in non-credit courses are eligible for a free temporary parking permit provided their registered hours are fewer than 40 hours of instruction. Students enrolled in 40 hours or more will be required to purchase a permanent parking permit at the Business Office with proof of registration. Please be prepared to provide the license plate number of your vehicle. Any prerequisites are identified in the course descriptions. Northwest Vista College allows senior citizens to enroll in various continuing education courses, free of tuition and fees on a space available basis.
Senior citizens have the option of full participation or auditing the class.
Auditing exempts the student from taking any required testing and prohibits earning credit required to be issued a certificate of completion. Full participation mandates the student to take all required course work and testing to demonstrate mastery of the subject to earn a certificate of completion. Designated smoking areas, outside College buildings, are provided for students wanting to smoke. Registration will take place in the Student Success office located in the Learning Center in room 106. Registration form will be accepted by mail, fax and in person.
