NOVA is a learning community with specific expectations concerning the conduct of its students. The College's approach to student learning and student conduct is to provide a safe and suipportive learning environment that promotes teaching, learning and student success. When a student's conduct adversely affects the College's pursuit of its educational objectives, actions will be taken to remedy the situation. NOVA's approach will be to resolve the problem and to help students learn to make better decisions. It is the College's goal that when students experience the conduct process, they will leave that process as better$-$educated students, better all$-$around members of the College community, and better global citizens. In accord with this general philosophy, efforts will be made to resolve discipline issues informally where possible.

By enrolling at NOVA, a student accepts its policies and procedures and acknowledges the right of NOVA to take action, up to and including suspension or expulsion in response to misconduct. It is a student's responsibility to become familiar with the student code of conduct. Lack of awareness is no excuse for noncompliance with NOVA's policies and procedures.
