Napa Valley College Catalog 2021-2022
Napa Valley College publishes a new catalog every year. The information published in this catalog is effective for the academic year beginning Fall 2021 through Summer 2022.
Catalog Rights
Students have two options regarding the requirements for the Associate Degree (graduation requirements):
- They are eligible to graduate under the catalog in effect at the time they petition to graduate, whether or not they maintain continuous enrollment at the college; or
- Students may elect to graduate under the catalog in effect during their initial enrollment at Napa Valley College if they maintain continuous enrollment (by taking at least one course each academic year—fall or spring semester).
Catalog rights do not apply to modifications to entrance requirements for programs (e.g., ADN, Respiratory Therapy, etc.) or program prerequisites. For more information regarding catalog rights, please contact the Counseling Department.
