However, depending on the student\u0026#8217;s intended program of study, there may be specific admission criteria that must be met. All applicants must complete the online NWFSC Admissions Application. An applicant is limited to one application per semester. If an applicant needs to make any changes to the application, he or she must complete an electronic Request for Exception: Admissions form to make any changes to the current application. A link to this request form can be found on the Admissions Page of the College\u0026#8217;s website. Upon admission, the student is bound to the rules and requirements set forth in the College Catalog in effect for the semester of admission. If the applicant fails to enroll during the semester of their initial admission, he or she will be required to complete a new Admissions Application for a future semester. \nGet Started\n1. It\u0026#8217;s free to apply to NWFSC. Apply online at www.nwfsc.edu/admissions.\n2. Request official transcripts, as applicable, which include the following: a final high school transcript, GED transcript, or the Affidavit of Home School Completion (the affidavit must be notarized and proof of home education program registration with a County School Board must accompany it); official college and/or university transcripts from all institutions previously attended, including military transcripts (Community College of the Air Force and the Joint Services Transcript). Please request official transcripts to be sent directly to Northwest Florida State College, Office of Academic Records and Enrollment, 100 College Blvd. East, Niceville, FL 32578. All required documents must be received prior to the start of the semester of admission; if all admission documentation is not received, a registration hold will be placed on the student\u0026#8217;s account that will prohibit all registration activity until such time as the documentation is received.\n3. Score reports from national testing agencies such as CLEP, DANTES, AICE, AP, or IB are required to receive course credit; however, a lack of submission will not prevent an admissions decision nor registration.\n4. All First-Time Freshmen are required to meet with a Student Success Navigator for academic advising prior to registering for courses. Students may call (850) 502-2895 or email studentsuccess@nwfsc.edu to schedule an appointment.\n5. Each applicant will be notified by email of their admission status to the College. Once admitted, students are assigned an NWFSC student email account and student identification number. The student is expected to provide his or her student identification number in order to verify his or her identity when discussing any information related to the student\u0026#8217;s education record here at the College. The NWFSC student email account serves as the official method of communication to the student from the College. The student will be expected to use this email account when communicating electronically with the College."]},"ceterms:creditValue":[{"@type":"ceterms:ValueProfile","schema:value":60.0,"ceterms:creditUnitType":[{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"https://credreg.net/ctdl/terms/CreditUnit","ceterms:targetNode":"creditUnit:DegreeCredit","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-US":"Credit Unit"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Degree Credit"},"ceterms:targetNodeDescription":{"en-US":"Credit that is issued or is accepted as credit for earning a college-level degree."}}]}],"ceterms:description":{"en-US":"Program Requirements"}}],"ceterms:offeredBy":["https://credentialengineregistry.org/resources/ce-36f84bbb-e172-4e64-baa1-701a7248fea3"],"ceterms:identifier":[{"@type":"ceterms:IdentifierValue","ceterms:identifierTypeName":{"en-US":"FLVC Public Status"},"ceterms:identifierValueCode":"Public"}],"ceterms:inLanguage":["en-US"],"ceterms:availableAt":[{"@type":"ceterms:Place","ceterms:latitude":30.5386911,"ceterms:longitude":-86.4765968,"ceterms:postalCode":"32578","ceterms:addressRegion":{"en-US":"FL"},"ceterms:streetAddress":{"en-US":"100 College Boulevard"},"ceterms:addressLocality":{"en-US":"Niceville"}}],"ceterms:description":{"en-US":"The purpose of this program is to prepare students for employment or provide additional training for persons previously or currently employed in the manufacturing, electronics, aerospace, or other related industries. This degree is a planned sequence of instruction consisting of the five specializations: Mechanical Design and Fabrication, Digital Design and Modeling, Advanced Technology, Digital Manufacturing and Electronics with one common core. It is recommended that students complete the core before advancing to the courses in the next level of specialization. The coverage includes communication skills, technical competency, safe and efficient work practices and a combination of theory and laboratory activities to gain the necessary cognitive and manipulative skills to support engineering design, processes, production, testing, and product quality. The 18 credit hours core has been aligned with the Manufacturing Skills Standards Council's (MSSC) skills standards. The MSSC skill standards define the knowledge, skills, and performance needed for positions in manufacturing. After completing this core and the General Education requirements, the students will be eligible to take the exam for the MSSC Production Technician Certification. Students who successfully complete selected courses from this program of study may be eligible to receive the college credit certificate in Engineering Technology Support Specialist (CCC) (State CIP Code 0615000007)."},"ceterms:alternateName":{"en-US":["Engineering Technology"]},"ceterms:subjectWebpage":"https://www.nwfsc.edu/engineering/","ceterms:credentialStatusType":{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"https://credreg.net/ctdl/terms/CredentialStatus","ceterms:targetNode":"credentialStat:Active","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-US":"Credential Status"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Active"},"ceterms:targetNodeDescription":{"en-US":"Awards of the credential are ongoing."}},"ceterms:learningDeliveryType":[{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"https://credreg.net/ctdl/terms/Delivery","ceterms:targetNode":"deliveryType:BlendedDelivery","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-US":"Delivery Type"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Blended Delivery"},"ceterms:targetNodeDescription":{"en-US":"Delivery includes significant levels of both in person and online."}}],"ceterms:instructionalProgramType":[{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"https://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/cipcode/Default.aspx?y=56","ceterms:targetNode":"https://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/cipcode/cipdetail.aspx?y=56\u0026cip=15.0000","ceterms:codedNotation":"15.0000","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-US":"Classification of Instructional Programs"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Engineering Technologies/Technicians, General."},"ceterms:targetNodeDescription":{"en-US":"A program that generally prepares individuals to apply basic engineering principles and technical skills in support of engineers engaged in a wide variety of projects.
