FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
NWTC TRANSCRIBED CREDIT (CONTINUED)
6. When do I send in my students’ grades?
When you have your student’s FINAL grade for the
class, enter it directly into the Blackboard shell within 72
hours. You are required to enter FINAL student grades
into your Blackboard shell in the PSGRADE column for
the course.
7. What happens if students are enrolled and
then drop?
When you enter your FINAL grades into Blackboard,
enter a “W” for students who have withdrawn or
dropped a transcribed credit course. When NWTC
queries the FINAL grades for the transcribed credit
classes, credit will not be issued to students who are
identified as withdrawn/dropped “W”. Students earning
anything less than a “C” will notice an audit grade
of “AU” listed. This “AU” grade will not count toward
academic credentials at NWTC and will not transfer
outside of NWTC.
8. How can high school students request
an NWTC transcript?
Once students successfully complete their transcribed
credit course and grades have been posted to their
NWTC account students can request an official or
unofficial transcript at the following link: https://www.
nwtc.edu/admissions/student-records/transcript-
request or students can call Enrollment Services 920-
498-5444 at NWTC for assistance. Please make sure
students check their mynwtc account for final grades
posted before ordering official transcripts.
9. How can a student’s credentials be requested?
Request for transcripts/credentials and enrollment
verification should be directed to admissions@nwtc.
edu. Before requesting this information, please
confirm that the student’s grades have been submitted
and processed. Please include the student’s name
(first, last, middle initial), date of birth, year credential
completed, name of credential requesting and district
contact information for NWTC to submit response.
Please allow five business days to process the request.
10. Where do I find out information and/or submit
my transcribed credit class syllabus?

facilities?
