West Valley College student account questions
What happens if I have an unpaid balance at West Valley College?
If your account has an unpaid balance of $167 or more four weeks before priority registration opens for the next term, a hold will be placed on your account preventing future registration. WVC will also withhold transcripts and hold your degree or certificate until all outstanding fees are cleared. Delinquent accounts may be referred to ConServe collections agency — WVC notes this does not affect your credit score. Contact Admissions & Records at wvc.admissions@westvalley.edu or (408) 741-2001.
What can block me from registering for classes at West Valley College?
Registration can be blocked by: (1) a financial hold if you owe $167 or more four weeks before priority registration opens; (2) incomplete SSSP requirements — you must have an active application, completed My Placements, and cleared any required prerequisites. Log in to the WVC Portal to check your holds. To clear a financial hold, contact Admissions & Records at wvc.admissions@westvalley.edu or (408) 741-2001.
Where can I view my balance, financial aid status, and holds at West Valley College?
Everything is online — log in to the WVC Portal and check the Financial Aid section for your award status and the Registration section for any active holds. WVC does not mail paper notices; you must check the Portal regularly. Access it at westvalley.edu and click 'WVC Portal.'
Does West Valley College offer a payment plan?
