PLACE students who have completed an A.A.S. degree at NVCC often continue their studies pursuing a bachelor's degree.  The Bachelor's of Individualized Studies (BIS) program at GMU  is an opportunity well suited for those students who have developed portfolios.   Students who are interested in pursuing this option to complete a bachelor's degree should plan to attend an information session on the BIS program at George Mason University. 

The NVCC home page offers a wealth of information for students.  In particular, the NVCC Student Services site will answer many questions that students might have as they work their way toward degree completion.   An understanding of program requirements and the process of degree completion will be found on the page of this site.

To assist you with your efforts to produce the portfolios as well as sharpen your academic skills, The University of Texas-Austin's Learning Center offers additional insights for developing your goals paper.

As always, your instructor, Cammy White is available to assist you either through e-mail or through the discussion forum.
