Matriculated Status

Matriculated students are those who have been accepted into an associate degree or certificate program at the college.  Once students have matriculated they must maintain a prescribed academic standing in order to continue from one semester to another. Matriculation must occur in order to graduate in one of NECC’s program of study.  

Students who have not matriculated in a program are considered “unclassified.”  Students can complete up to 15 credits at NECC without matriculating into a program.  After 15 credits, students must contact an advisor before they enroll in additional courses to determine their NECC status.

Students are strongly encouraged to contact an NECC advisor prior to registering for their first course. Proper selection of courses will assist students to more quickly and efficiently achieve their goals.
