Documents submitted in support of an application for admission or transfer credit become the property of the College. Replaceable documents (eg. US/Canadian transcripts) will not be returned. Irreplaceable documents will be returned directly to the student after the admission evaluation is complete. For applicants who do not attend VCC, documents will be kept on file for one year only. For those who attend VCC, admission documents may be destroyed ten years after a student's last registration. VCC does not provide photocopies for students or return scanned copies of documents submitted in support of an application for admission or transfer credit.
