1.      Course Syllabus - Photocopy of the syllabus used at the time the course was taken.  A determination of the comparability of course content and level of instruction is made through a comparison of the following syllabus elements: course prefix, number, and title; lecture/lab contact hours and credit hours; course description; prerequisite/co-requisite courses; course objectives/course goals; grading scale; required textbook and other instructional materials; and methods of evaluation. If the syllabus does not contain the information specified above, supplemental documentation (e.g., assignment schedules, grading policy statements) will be required along with the course syllabus.

2.      Faculty Credentials - Verification that faculty teaching the course(s) for which credit is requested meet the following academic and/or professional experience qualifications: courses designed for transfer to four-year colleges and universities - master's degree and at least 18 graduate hours in the discipline; courses not designed for transfer to four-year college and universities -master's degree and at least 18 graduate hours in the discipline or bachelor's degree and work experience in a related field.

3.      If applicable, the names of relevant specialized or program agencies/boards may be submitted along with the above information.

B.        The transfer credit appeal process may be used by students to request reconsideration of transfer credit decisions.  Steps in the appeal process are as follows:

1.      The student contacts the Admissions and Records Office and requests a re-evaluation of transfer credit.  The student may ask that particular courses be reconsidered for approval.

2.      Course descriptions, course syllabi, and other documentation as described above must be provided by the student or by the institution where the courses were taken.

3.      Copies of college transcripts and supporting documentation are sent to the appropriate academic department head for review.

4.      The department head informs the Admissions and Records Office of the transfer credit decision.  Department head decisions regarding the awarding of transfer credit are final.

2.      Provide a copy of their Form I-94.

3.      Submit, within thirty (30) days from the first day of classes, a certificate from a licensed physician or other qualified medical authority verifying freedom from tuberculosis.  Failure to submit such certification will result in denial of admission or continued enrollment.  In the event that a student has tuberculosis or has potential tuberculosis requiring medical treatment, continued enrollment will be conditional upon the determination by a licensed physician that further enrollment is not a risk to others and upon the student's compliance with any prescribed medical treatment program.

4.      Enroll in the TBR Student/Scholar Health and Accident Insurance Plan (students with J, F or M visas; students with J visas must also carry adequate medical and hospitalization insurance for spouses and dependents).

IX. Academic Fresh Start: Criteria

"Academic Fresh Start" is a plan of academic forgiveness provided for undergraduate students who have demonstrated academic responsibility following their return.  The Academic Fresh Start allows the calculation of the quality point average and credit hours toward graduation to be based only on work done after returning to college.

Readmitted students who were formally enrolled in the institution as well as transfer students who meet institutional requirements for admission and who have been separated from all institutions of higher education for a minimum of four (4) years are eligible for the Fresh Start.  Institutional policies governing the readmission of former students and admission of transfer students must be in compliance with TBR policy 2:03:00:00 (Admissions).  This policy requires that the "transfer applicant's grade point average on transferable courses must be at least equal to that which the institution requires for the readmission of its own students.  Applicants who do not meet the institution's standards may be admitted on scholastic probation or other appropriate condition. (2:03:00:00, page 11 of 16)."

Each institution may establish an Academic Fresh Start provision which must meet the following minimum criteria:

 

Student Requirements

 

(1) Separation from all collegiate institutions for at least four (4) years.

 

(2) At the time of readmission or admission as a degree student or after the time of readmission, but prior to the completion of 15 hours of degree coursework, formal application to the office so defined by the institution's catalogue requesting the Academic Fresh Start and describing an academic plan.

 

(3) Completion of at least fifteen (15) semester hours of earned degree coursework with a minimum QPA of 2.0 for all work attempted.

 

Terms of the Academic Fresh Start

 

(1) Once the student has satisfied the above requirements, the institution may grant the Academic Fresh Start.  The student may be granted a Fresh Start only once.

 

(2) The student's permanent record will remain a record of all work; however, the student will forfeit the use for degree or certification purposes all college or university degree credit earned prior to the four-year separation upon the granting of the Fresh Start. Previously satisfied Assessment and Placement Program (COMPASS) requirements will not be forfeited.

 

(3) Upon degree admission, Fresh Start applicants who did not satisfy COMPASS requirements at the time of previous enrollment and whose academic plan includes completion of a college-level English or mathematics course must meet current Academic Assessment and Placement Program (COMPASS) requirements regarding enrollment in college English and mathematics courses.

 

(4) The student’s transcript will note that the Fresh Start was made and the date of the Fresh Start.  The record will also carry the notation, “QPA and credit totals are based only on the work beginning [with the date of the Fresh Start].

 

(5) The student will apply for the Fresh Start with the understanding that all TBR institutions will honor a Fresh Start provision granted at another TBR institution.  The student should also signify understanding that non-TBR institutions may not accept the QPA as it is calculated with the Fresh Start.

A.       Academic Advisement

Academic advisement is a communication and information sharing process during which students make planned decisions about their educational goals.  The Student Assistance Center serves as the advisement center for new students.  During the first semester of enrollment, degree-seeking students are assigned a faculty advisor who works closely with them in planning their program and course sequence.  All full-time faculty advisors are available to students for consultation and maintain regular office hours for this purpose.  Students needing academic assistance are encouraged to seek help before their problems become critical.

B.        Registration

Students register online at https://psweb.pstcc.edu/ahomepg.htm or in person by visiting one of the colleges’ campuses during published registration periods.  The minimum load for full-time attendance is 12 credit hours per semester and the maximum load is 20 credit hours per semester.  Academic department head approval is necessary for a course load above 20 credit hours.  Students requesting to take above 20 credit hours should see their assigned academic advisor; the advisor’s department head will determine approval of the student’s request.

C.       Priority Registration

Priority registration occurs several weeks before the end of each term (see Academic Calendar).  Students are encouraged to register during this period to take advantage of a wider selection of classes.  Degree-seeking students should consult with their advisor to plan the following term's schedule.  New students whose application files are complete may also participate in priority registration.  Registration is processed in conjunction with their advising appointment scheduled through the Student Assistance Center.  Returning and ‘Special’ non-degree seeking students who opt to self-advise may participate in priority registration via the web.

D.       Final Registration

Final registration occurs a few days before the beginning of each term (see Academic Calendar).  Students registering during this period may obtain scheduling assistance from general advisors on a first-come, first-serve basis.  Payment of fees is required of all students at the time of final registration.

A student is officially enrolled when all steps of registration procedures have been successfully completed, and confirmed with a class schedule, and all assessed fees have been satisfied through the Business office. Only students who are properly registered for a course (s) may attend the class.  Credit will be granted only for courses in which the student is officially registered.  Students officially registered for a class they do not attend or stop attending and do not officially drop or withdraw will receive an “F” grade for the course.  Following any change in registration, it is the student’s responsibility to check the change(s) for accuracy of the revised schedule.

F.        Cancellation of Scheduled Classes
