The Northern Oklahoma College Board of Regents met Wednesday in Tonkawa hearing a report that enrollment for Summer 2021 and Fall 2021 will begin March 22.
Vice President for Enrollment Management Dr. Rick Edgington said approximately 5,000 prospective students would be receiving enrollment information from NOC through the new Jenzabar system. He also said that NOC would be contacting 2,000 high school students regarding the concurrent enrollment program with area high schools.
Regents also approved an Associate of Applied Science in Applied Technology degree option at Wednesday’s meeting. Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Pam Stinson explained the degree option is part of a statewide initiative.
She explained the option allows NOC to accept technology certificates for credit toward a degree.
“It will allow more flexibility for students that are coming to NOC from the career tech system,” Stinson said.
Vice President for Stillwater Diana Watkins said she has been setting up school days with Stillwater area high schools where students visit the NOC Stillwater Classroom Building.
Vice President for Development and Community Relations Sheri Snyder announced the NOC Distinguished Alumni event is scheduled for Saturday, March 27 at the Renfro Center in NOC Tonkawa.
