🚫Beware of Phishing Scams!

As a security reminder, scammers often target students at the start of a new semester. So stay alert, Wildcats, and think before you click.

Common signs of a phishing scam:
🛑Urgent refund/account messages: Watch for phrases like "Refund is on hold," "Verify account,"
"Suspicious activity," and "Action required."
❓Suspicious links: Hover to preview URLs; avoid odd, misspelled, shortened addresses.
💻Fake login pages: Never enter credentials into Microsoft/Google forms.
📱Vishing (phone scams): Never share one-time codes with anyone.

When in doubt, pause, verify, and report.

When Army veteran Monique Alceus decided to continue her education, she chose Northwest Vista College. As a first-generation college student, Monique found that getting involved on campus made all the difference. The recent graduate served as president of the NVC All Ranks Club, a student organization that provides resources and support to military-affiliated students and their dependents.🇺🇸

She also joined the NVC Cheer Team, giving her another way to build friendships and feel connected to the campus community.📣

This fall, Monique is headed to the University of the Incarnate Word. We wish her all the best and continued success.👏
