Hi, this is Josh Floyd, the Dual Enrollment Coordinator here at Wytheville Community College.
This video is designed to help dual enrollment students navigate and complete an active application
with Wytheville Community College.
To begin, you will just need to navigate to our main website.
If you know the URL, please enter it on your respective web browser.
If you do not, you can just type in Wytheville Community College under any search engine.
And, as you can see, the URL is listed.
For web browsers, we highly recommend utilizing either Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox when
using respective applications and other areas with your account.
On the main website, you can see that there are several different options.
There are listings for our career opportunities and pathway programs.
There are also listings for our campus and community events.
And there are several different areas on the website in which to formally apply.
There's an Apply button here.
And it also can be found under the Attend WCC link.
For this video, we're going to go through the Attend WCC link.
The next screen will show you different options.
We will use the first block on the left.
Click or tap the Apply button.
Next, select Admissions.
And you will want to select the Apply Online link.
When doing so, it will take you to the beginning of the Virginia Community College application.
You'll notice that there are three options that you can use with which to verify a new
account.
If you would like to verify utilizing your Facebook account, you can enter your Facebook
information here and then click/tap the Create New Account link.
You can also use -- if you have a Google account -- an email as well as a password there , just
as you normally would logging into Google.
For this purpose, we will go ahead and utilizing the Sign Up with Email link.
If you do not have an email, this is something you'll want to obtain prior to beginning the
application process.
There are a myriad of free email options out there.
I have several through Gmail -- one through Gmail as part of my work account, and one
as a personal account.
I would recommend that as a very, very good option.
There are also others as well.
Under the first and last name, I will go ahead and put my first and last name.
And I also will input a random birth date on this list.
(This is not my actual birthday.)
One neat thing -- or one great thing I should say -- about the application would be that
students now have the option of entering a cell phone to turn on respective text messaging
from Wytheville Community College.
If this is something that you utilize on a regular basis -- if you utilize text on a
more frequent basis -- I highly recommend this option.
If I were to enter my office phone as a number in which I wish to receive text messages,
I would then select the Mobile Opt-In button by selecting it and then validating my cell
phone number.
You will then get a text that will validate -- it will be a code that you will enter in
to validate your cell phone.
For purposes of this application, I'm going to just use the email address.
And I'm going to go ahead and use my work address.
When you select validate, you'll notice that -- in this case -- I have a check mark.
What that means is that I've validated this address in the past.
If you have not validated an email address, you will get a code the same way you did if
you also included a cell phone.
So either way, there will be a four-digit validation code that you will receive and
that you will enter respective information.
It's then going to ask you for a username.
It's going to be very particular on your username.
I cannot type in anything less than five letters.
Additionally, it's going to ask for specifics.
You can only use respective characters A through Z, numbers, et cetera.
It also allows you to an email address, which I'm going to use.
You'll notice that it says 'That email/username already exists'.
So if you do get that message, then you'll just need to enter another one.
In this example, I'm just going to enter my name and two random numbers.
It's next going to ask you for a password.
Like your username, your password is going to be specific.
So it has to be between 8 to 12 characters long -- or excuse me, letters long -- with
no spaces or special characters, and at least one number.
So, I'm going to go ahead, and you'll notice that if you type in your confirmation password
-- and it's incorrect -- it's going to make sure that it is confirmed.
Finally, it will ask me to pick a question on the list.
Favorite sport?
Good old baseball.
There's also the privacy policy and terms of use for utilizing the application.
I certainly encourage you to read those before you check this box.
In terms of time, we will go ahead and say that we have already done so.
The account is now going to say that your account name -- the one that you've created
-- you'll want to make sure that you record what you've used for your name and password
so you'll have that the next time you sign into your account.
When you select the Click Here to Continue, you notice that you have several different
options.
There are links to the Career Wizard and other areas for respective surveys.
There are questions about financial aid and other questions.
You can explore all of the different community colleges in the system.
Each is identified by a respective pin.
Wytheville Community College is listed here.
We want to go ahead and hit Apply Now.
The system is now going to ask which application do you wish to activate.
Well, we want to active one with Wytheville!
It's going to give you specific information going forward about application instructions,
about requesting transcripts.
For dual enrollment students, you will not have any transcripts complete as of yet.
This is something that you will not have to request as part of this process.
We're going to go ahead and next hit the Apply Now button.
You'll notice that it has imported the information that I've included on the previous page, so
I do not need to retype my first and last name.
If you wish to enter your middle name, you can.
It is optional.
It's the same if you have a suffix as well.
Do you have another name you prefer to be called?
In this case, my full name is Joshua.
So if I entered Joshua here, I could include Yes and my first name I would prefer as Josh.
If your name has changed or if you've ever had a different first or last name, you would
enter it here.
If this does not apply, you can keep moving.
It has included my birth date from the previous screen.
It also will next ask you for your social security number.
If you do not have a social security number, you will check this box.
You can also elect to not include your social security number.
For dual enrollment purposes, some students do not know their social security number -- and
that is perfectly okay in this example.
You would go ahead and select this example.
However, if you transition to WCC, for financial purposes, your financial aid is linked to
several pieces of personal information -- inclusive of your social security number.
So if you do not enter it now and you transition to WCC, we will need to get that information
down the road.
In this example, we'll just going to leave it blank.
The next few questions are for voluntary purposes only.
It's going to ask you about your gender identity, and it will give you options to choose here.
It will ask about your racial or ethnic identification on the next one -- and if you are Hispanic
or Latino or Latina.
And the last question will ask you if you have ever applied, attend, or worked at any
community college in Virginia -- which is inclusive of dual enrollment courses.
This one would more than likely be no for the majority of dual enrollment students.
The only time that I have seen this answer be yes, is if a student has also activated
an application with one of our Governor's Schools.
If there is an application activated before this process, you would answer yes.
But in this case, we're going to answer no.
After selecting that, it's now going to ask for a mailing address.
It's going to first ask you to select a country.
For this example, I'm just going to go ahead and enter the community college's main address.
Then it's going to ask if this is also your permanent home address.
For this purpose, now we're going to say yes (even though I don't live at the College).
It's then going to ask you a few additional questions.
Has Virginia been your home for the past 12 months?
In this case, we would say yes.
If you say yes on Virginia, it's going to ask you which county or which city do you
live.
If you said no here, it's going to take that option away.
For this example, we're going to say yes and we're going to say Wythe County.
If the College needs to contact you, what number would you like us to call?
We're going to use again my office phone number.
And we're just going to say that it's work.
More than likely, most of you would put cell.
It's then going to ask you again if you did not enter your cell phone on the first screen,
it's going to again ask you -- would you like to get important updates from the College
by text message?
Again, I answered no on the first screen, so I'm going to answer no again -- but if
you chose no on the first screen, and have decided you would like to get important updates,
then you would say yes.
I do recommend this option if you do have a data plan.
The last question asks is if you plan to apply for financial assistance.
Financial aid guidelines require that we obtain your voluntary consent to use electronic means
to provide you with information.
What this means is that the College mainly does the primary amount of its contact through
emails, especially with financial aid guidelines.
In the purposes of time, we will not review this, but I encourage you to look at this
button here.
If you are only taking dual enrollment classes and you are not planning to apply for financial
aid ... dual enrollment students are not eligible for financial aid until after they have graduated
high school -- or have completed a diploma if you are a home schooled student.
So high school or home schooled students, you will not be able to utilize financial
aid until you have graduated.
So in this example, I'm going to say that I'm not going to apply for financial aid -- even
though you can either click this or this one.
As you can see, when you complete each section -- it's going to give you check marks indicating
that you've completed everything in that section.
You can also skip around to another screen if you choose to do so.
But for our exercise, we're just going to keep moving down the list.
It's going to ask which of the below describes your high school education.
Well, if you are home schooled, you would select the second option -- or you would select
the first option as a high school student.
For this example, we're just going to select the first option.
It's now going to ask you to identify your school.
So if you want to start typing in your school, you're more than welcome to do so.
We're just going to go ahead and start typing George Wythe High School.
Now in Virginia, there are multiple George Wythe High Schools.
We'll want to choose the Wytheville High School.
It's also going to give you the option that says if your high school is not on the list,
or if you're home schooled.
So we're going to go ahead and select that.
And it's also going to ask you when you are expected to graduate.
I'm going to go ahead and put five for May of 2020.
If you have graduated -- which for dual enrollment students, this would not apply -- if you are
a high school graduate or have earned your GED, this is where students can upload their
high school transcript or GED scores.
In this case, we will not.
This question is going to be no for dual enrollment students.
This is going to be if you attended any other colleges.
This would apply if you have attended a different two- or four-year institution after graduation
and then transfer to WCC.
We're going to say no.
You plan to earn a degree, certificate, or diploma.
For dual enrollment purposes, you may be in one of our concurrent degree, certificate,
or diploma programs at the College.
If you are, I still would recommend that you put no here, because most students are either
earning dual enrollment credit and then transitioning to WCC or they are going on to a four-year
institution.
If you do say yes, your educational goals are listed here.
So if you are getting a degree or certificate, you can enter this information here.
If you would like to say that I'd like to transfer on to an institution, it will ask
you for classes.
But for dual enrollment purposes, we can just select no.
Finally, it's going to ask you when you plan to start the classes.
So I'm going to say that I'm going to start this fall.
The last question on this page is going to ask you which of the following best describes
your situation.
I am taking classes through my high school to receive high school credit and college
credit.
I'm taking classes on my own not through my high school or I am a home school student.
Or I am taking some classes through my high school and some classes on my own for college
credit only.
For the majority of dual enrollment students earning college credit, it's going to be one
of the top two.
If you are a high school student, whether you attend one of our public institutions
or if you attend Oak Hill Academy, you will want to select the first option.
If you are a home schooled student, you will want to select option two.
Since we did include George Wythe High School above, we're going to select the top one.
And then select, save and continue.
It will then ask you for military service.
Dual enrollment students will answer no to the first question.
You may be a dependent of someone who is currently serving in the military.
If this is the case, it's going to ask you to choose yes -- and you would choose dependent.
And then it will ask you whether or not your parent or legal guardian are currently serving,
if they are inactive, or if they are a veteran.
Otherwise, if they are not, you would just choose no.
Step five is going to ask you about your parents educational or guardians educational level.
Again, these questions are voluntary.
They do not impact your application whatsoever.
And it's going to give you drop down options for both parent one and parent two.
There are also two options at the bottom.
One is unknown and one is that you are not sure.
So again, these are voluntary purposes.
I'm just going to go ahead and fill in these two at random.
The next question is for in-state residency.
This usually is not a major deal for dual enrollment students, because you are either
with the school and you are living in Virginia, or you are at the Academy and you are in the
state taking dual enrollment classes or college-level classes.
The only time that I've seen this change is for students who are either here as U.S. citizens,
permanent residents, or here as non-immigrants or living outside of the U.S.
What we would do is that you choose the best option on this list -- which one that applies
to you.
Also, whether or not English is your primary language or not.
There also is a section to choose other.
And if you want to apply for in-state tuition.
If you choose no, it will automatically classify you as an out-of-state student.
Now, for dual enrollment purposes and for students who are in high school or home schooled
or are at Oak Hill Academy, this component will not change your tuition rate.
Since you are earning college credit in the state, this option here -- even if you choose
no -- will not affect your respective payment amount.
For this, what you will want to do -- even here if you say no -- students in dual enrollment
and college-level courses, they will still qualify for the in-state rates.
So for the large amount of students, this is going to be yes.
It's going to ask how you want to apply for in-state tuition.
You'll notice that if you said no, then you won't even have this option to choose.
You'll just click the save and continue.
In this option if you say yes, it's going to ask you how you want to claim your domicile.
If you live with one or both parents or one or both legal guardians, you would choose
the respective listing here.
That's going to be the option for the large majority of students who apply as part of
dual enrollment.
For this example, I'm just going to choose parent and I'm just going to go ahead and
write in just a random name.
This is going to say random.
I will say that they are a native citizen, and it's going to ask you a few questions
about your parent.
Have they lived in Virginia for the last 12 months?
Whether or not they paid income taxes?
If you say no, it's going to ask additional questions.
For example, if we answer yes, I'm going to say -- okay, he did file taxes.
He holds a Virginia driver's license.
He operates a motor vehicle in Virginia.
And he's registered to vote.
If you chose no, it will ask you if your parent has worked in Virginia for the last 12 months.
And you will say no.
So there are a couple of options there, but again it just establishes respective residency.
Again, for dual enrollment purposes, this is not a major component of the application.
However, most -- almost all of our students -- will answer yes.
However, it does give you the options of answering differently.
If you hit save and continue, it's going to ask additional information here.
Again, this supplemental information -- do not look at this screen, because this is one
of our test screens here.
If you wanted to provide any supplemental information, this will be a separate screen.
We're just going to go ahead and hit submit.
Okay.
It will say that you are about to submit an application to the College.
We do not charge an application fee.
In accordance with the code of Virginia, your information, date of birth, demographic information,
will be submitted to the Virginia State Police.
This is a requirement for any two- or four-year institution in the state.
It also gives you information about our policies with respect to firearms.
And it gives you a final review on your application.
If you feel like you need to go back to the application, you can go ahead and click this
link or select this link below to do so.
With that being said, I'm just going to go ahead and sign.
This will usually take several seconds.
Well, a little bit longer.
Okay!
You should get an application confirmation page.
It will go over any additional information that you need to send.
Again, for the large amount of students who are taking classes via dual enrollment or
college level prior to graduation from high school, most of this information will be the
form of small documentation -- which will come from the Admissions Office.
In this case, it identifies me as an in-state student and that I have been identified as
a high-school student who wishes to enroll in college courses.
This is largely due to the birth date that I included -- also with the fact that I said
I was still enrolled in high school.
You'll notice that you now have an EmplID.
This EmplID number identifies you in the community college system.
No one else has this number in the community college system except for you.
So think of it as your social security number, but even better in terms of security purposes.
You'll want to make sure you write down this number and you want to make sure to write
down your username -- and your temporary password.
Now your temporary password is case-sensitive.
So if it shows -- in this case, an upper-case L -- you want to go ahead and include that.
If it's a lower-case letter, you want to do so as well.
I also received a percentage sign as well.
This is a randomly generated set of letters, numbers, and characters.
You'll want to write down your username as well as your password.
Your username will normally be a combination of your initials and then a random number.
This is what you will use to log into your My.WCC account momentarily.
This is something that I definitely encourage you to write down.
And once you've written down this information, the next video that we will have will show
you how to log into your account with this information.
And as you can see, as a summary, it will go over again your name, the college to which
you activated an application (I did not include my social security number -- if I did, it
would be largely be marked out), the application term, the email, a confirmation number, and
the date and time that I submitted it.
And with that being said, you are all done with the application!
The next portion that we recommend -- again, I will have another video that will go into
your student account next -- but I would encourage you to log into your student account.
Specifically, to change -- if anything -- this temporary password to something much more
familiar to you.
There's also a link that will go over what you thought about the online application.
I really like the formatting of the application.
I really like the fact that students now can register to get text messages from the College,
and I think this is going to be a great resource for you.
We are really excited that you are planning to take college-level classes while you are
in high school or while you are a home schooled student.
I hope you found this video to be helpful.
If you have any questions, feel free to give me a call, an email, or text at the College.
Thank you so much!
