Welcome!
This page will give you some of the details of what students need to know about arriving on campus and how the beginning of a typical college year will look.
There are several links and documents on this page that students need to read, and there are some forms that they will need to fill out before arriving at NBC.

- ROOMMATE QUESTIONNAIRE

- GET UPDATED POLICE CHECK & VULNERABLE SECTORS CHECK FROM LOCAL POLICE DETACHMENT (a letter for your detachment will be sent with your student info packages).**
** There will be a $100 fee if students come to school without a record check. Following this there will be a $50/week fee until the record checks are submitted. Third and fourth year students are not required to submit new record checks to NBC. However, they are responsible to find out what they need for any off-site practicums/internships.
Register for Classes
Students are asked to register for their classes before they arrive. Access to the online course registration will be provided to students prior to the start of the semester. If students have any questions about the registration process or have issues or special circumstances that don't fit with the registration form, they can call the college to speak with the NBC Registrar.
