Nota Bene: Thomas Nelson Community College Admission Agreement

I’m pleased to share that an exciting new Guaranteed Admission Agreement has been formalized between Virginia Wesleyan College and Thomas Nelson Community College.

The agreement facilitates the transfer of students from associate degree programs at TNCC to programs for degree completion at Virginia Wesleyan. Admission to the College will be guaranteed for any TNCC student who meets the articulated criteria, and merit scholarships will be awarded to transferring students based on cumulative grade point average.

We were delighted to welcome Thomas Nelson Community College leadership to campus for the Nov. 21 signing ceremony. Among those in attendance were President John T. Dever, Interim Vice President for Academic Affairs Charles B. Swaim, Interim Vice President for Student Affairs Kris Rarig, and Dean of Communications, Humanities, and Social Sciences Patrick Tompkins. Guests from VWC included Provost and Vice President Timothy O’Rourke, Assistant Provost Deborah Hicks, and Associate Dean for Enrollment Beth Clarke.

Special thanks to all who made this collaborative effort possible. This is yet another example of what makes Virginia Wesleyan Coastal Virginia's premier private, national liberal arts college.
