The New Student Information Session (NSIS) is designed to acquaint new students with the Victoria College campus and the various resources that can enhance both personal development and academic success. 

All incoming freshmen are required to participate in a face-to-face New Student Information Session prior to registration. In order to participate in a New Student Information Session, students must first:

1. Apply for admission at ApplyTexas.org;
2. Submit assessment scores; and,
3. Submit an official high school transcript or GED certificate.

Once students have completed these admission requirements, registration can be completed in the Advising & Counseling Services Office or through Web Registration, if eligible.
