www.hccs.edu/media/houston-

Under the provisions of the Texas Education Code Section 51.931, Texas residents seeking to apply for admission or re-admission to HCC and/or any specialized program at HCC may elect to have academic course credit more than ten (10) years old prior to the starting date of the semester in which they seek to enroll, not be considered as part of the admissions process. An applicant admitted to HCC under this provision may not receive any course credit for courses taken 10 or more years prior to enrollment. This means courses excluded under this provision may not be counted toward a degree, GPA calculations, academic standing or to meet pre- requisite requirements. Applicants interested in the Academic Fresh Start Program must meet all HCC admissions requirements and must submit official transcripts from all previously attended colleges and universities along with a petition found at
community-college/district/pdf/academic-affairs/Academic-Fresh-Start-(Update).pdf prior to admission to HCC.

SPECIAL ADMISSIONS INFORMATION
Certain HCC programs require additional or special admissions information. Those programs are described briefly below.
High School Student Admissions and Enrollment
Currently enrolled high school or home-schooled students may enroll in the same volume of HCC courses (each semester) as a traditional HCC student. Students should furnish a high school transcript, TSI scores (or documentation of exemption from TSI requirements), and approval from their high school. These students will need to maintain a “C” average to continue taking courses at HCC without limitations.
Dual Credit
To be eligible for any dual credit course, the student may be currently enrolled in a public-school district, charter, private school, or homeschool students with an established memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Houston Community College. All dual credit MOUs are posted at

www.hccs.edu/programs/dual-credit/dual-credit-memorandums-of-understanding.

Dual Credit students must complete an HCC admission application and submit an official high school transcript indicating PLAN, PSAT, TAKS, STAAR SAT, and/or ACT test scores (or bring the official test score report if test scores do not appear on the high school transcript). Dual Credit students are also allowed to take the Texas Success Initiative (TSI) Assessment to qualify for college courses taught as dual credit. Academic Dual Credit Courses: To be eligible for academic dual credit courses, high school students must pass the applicable areas of a Texas Success Initiative. The student may be exempt from state mandated TSI testing if the student meets the qualifying standards on applicable areas of the SAT, ACT, PLAN, PSAT, or qualifying STAAR scores by subject. Students may take college level courses related to the area(s) of the test they pass. The student must also meet institutional course prerequisites. Dual Credit students must take only courses that apply directly to their pathway and degree plan.
In 2015, House Bill 505 removed limitations on the number of classes a dual credit student may take. However, Houston Community College recommends that students taking more than two classes per semester possess a 3.0 or higher-grade point average in high school coursework. Dual Credit students, like all college students, are responsible for purchasing required textbooks and other essential course materials. The exception would be in cases where the high school provides textbooks. All Dual Credit instructional material is based on the recommended by the academic or workforce department. The Houston Community College Board of Trustees has waived tuition and fees for dual credit students residing within the taxing district (In-District) of the college. Students outside (Out-of-District) taxing districts may take dual credit classes at a cost of $50.00 per course. If taught in the high school, the dual credit class must be composed solely of dual credit and/or college credit students, not traditional high school students.
For Dual Credit courses, grading criteria allow faculty the opportunity to award high school and college credit based on the student’s performance. For further information, contact any HCC College P-16 Director at one of the college locations.
Senate Bill 1091 limits the courses students may take. The options are to take academic core courses, career and technical education courses, or foreign language courses. Students enrolled in Early

College High Schools are exempt from this legislation. Dual credit students must be placed on a degree plan when they enroll in the dual credit program.
Articulated Credit
HCC participates in the Advanced Technical Credit (ATC) program (commonly known as statewide articulation), provides an educational and training structure that is sensitive to the transition of high school students to college. The process that facilitates an orderly progression through programs of instruction is commonly referred to as “articulation.” Articulation agreements have been developed between HCC and school districts within the service area. These articulation agreements allow students to successfully complete certain Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses in high school to receive college credits, contingent upon enrollment in a similar Career and Technical Education program at HCC. The high school course must be on the state-approved articulated list and taught by an instructor who meets the HCC credential standards as defined by SACS. Students will only be awarded articulated credit if they received a letter grade of “B” or higher in the high school course while maintaining an overall high school GPA of at least a “C.” Students also will be awarded credit only if the course is a requirement of their degree or certificate.
For a list of universities in which HCC has established articulation agreements, visit

www.hccs.edu/support-services/transfers/agreements.

Any individuals interested in majoring in Workforce (CTE) programs who want to know if they qualify for articulated credit under an Advanced Technical Credit agreement should contact an HCC Dual Credit Success Coach, Advisor or the appropriate program department chair. Students may apply for additional placement credit for no more than 25% of the degree hours. Credit for more than four courses in any one subject area requires special approval.
Early College High School Students

www.tea.texas.gov/echs

Early College High Schools (ECHS) provide students with a “seamless” pathway from high school to college. ECHS allows high school students to complete a two-year degree while working through a traditional high school degree plan. After tackling this rigorous course of study, students graduate high school while earning up to 60 college credits, most of which are transferable to the post- secondary institution of their choice. ECHS provides strong support to students and their family in obtaining entrance to, and success in, higher education. For a listing of ECHS, please visit
.

The Houston Community College P-16 Council facilitates processes, consistency, standards, and procedures for homeschoolers who attend Houston Community College as dual credit students.
Private and charter school students may take dual credit courses at Houston Community College, on campus or online, but must work through the administration of their high school. Private and charter schools who want dual credit as an option for their students must have established partnerships with Houston Community College.
For more information, please contact the P-16 Director at 713-718-7651 or samuel.west@hccs.edu.
Admissions for Minors
Students who are 16 years old or younger AND have graduated from high school may be eligible for special admission to Houston Community College. Applicants who are admitted under the special admission process can enroll in college courses at an HCC campus or online.
In addition to the regular admission process, students age 16 years or younger must:
Show proof of education indicating graduation from public high school or completed secondary education according to the same general standards as those students who graduated from public high school; and
Once admitted, meet with the Dean of Student Success prior to registering for the first semester.
Students under the age of 14 must have a parent or legal guardian available at the HCC campus site at all times when their child is attending each class. This is required to help monitor the student’s activities and to be immediately available in case of an emergency. While on site at HCC, the parent or legal guardian cannot be in the student’s classroom. Failure to be available on campus or insistence on being in the student’s classroom will cause the student to be removed from each enrolled class.
Non-Degree Seeking
A non-degree seeking applicant is admitted on the basis that coursework will be taken for personal enrichment and not for the purpose of seeking a degree or certificate. Non-degree seeking students may not enroll in more than a total of 12 semester credit hours and are not eligible for state or federal financial aid.

Upward Bound (UB) Program emerged as the first federal program from the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964. Two other programs joined by 1968 to form TRIO, those program were Talent Search and Student Support Services. Today there are nine programs under the TRIO umbrella and seven of them provide services directly to students.
Upward Bound is a federal program sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education to provide fundamental support to participants in their preparation for college. UB provides opportunities to high school students from low-income families, from families in which neither parent holds a bachelor degree, and who show an academic need. The mission of UB is to assist high school students to complete secondary education, and enroll in and graduate from institutions of postsecondary education. Upward Bound takes a holistic approach in preparing the students academically, personally and emotionally for the future. Upward Bound is a rigorous year-round college preparatory program that provides the following services:
Academic classes in Math, English, Science, Computers, Foreign Language;
Counseling, both academic and individual;
Tutorials for all subjects;
Cultural enrichment activities;
Workshops;
University tours;
6-week summer program;
Work-study and internships; and
Financial literacy for students and parents.
Houston Community College supports the mission and objectives of Upward Bound. HCC has been an early supporter of TRIO programs and has hosted Upward Bound on its campuses since 1974 at Central Campus. In 1999, HCC applied and was granted a second Upward Bound program at Southeast Campus. Combined, HCC serves around 200 high school students as part of their Upward Bound family.
Upward Bound is a college preparatory program hosted at HCC and recruiting from Houston Independent School District (HISD) at these high schools: Sam Houston, Yates, Austin, and Northside. Each interested student will complete an application and an interview will be conducted with the parent and the student. Students will need to submit documents with the application to support their eligibility. Eligibility and acceptance are based on the documentation provided.
Students must be meet the following criteria: 1) Low Income; 2) First Generation in college; 3) Academic Need; 4) U.S Citizen, Permanent Resident. All students who are between the ages of 13-19, attend or are zoned in one of the high schools mentioned above, and must finish the 8th grade before joining the program.

Honors College
The HCC Honors College is located at four campuses: Central, Northwest/Spring Branch, Southeast/Eastside and Southwest/Stafford. It offers high achieving students the opportunity for enriched instruction, leadership development, and the opportunity for study/travel abroad. The program is designed for full-time students beginning their college experience or with limited HCC credit hours (under 15). Students study together in cohorts for their core curriculum classes.
Qualified students can receive scholarships and textbook assistance. To be eligible, students must have a 3.5 high school GPA or 3.5 HCC GPA and college-ready scores on TAKS, SAT, ACT or TSI. The Honors College application must be completed separately from the HCC application and all students are interviewed before acceptance.

Any address change which results in a change to in-district status must be accompanied by adequate documentation. Changes to in-district status made after registration will be effective the following semester.

Withdrawal from all classes with no refund.
Dismissal from the institution.
Payment of the difference in fees within 30 days.

A non-U.S. citizen who is living in the United States under permanent resident status, has an appropriate visa, or who has filed an I-485 application for permanent residency and has been issued a notice of action from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) showing that the I-485 has been approved, has the same privilege of qualifying for resident status, for tuition purposes, as a U.S. citizen. Anyone permitted by Congress to adopt the United States as their domicile while living in this country is afforded the same privilege as citizens and permanent residents to establish Texas residency for tuition purposes.
For more information on residency or to see the list of approved documentation, visit

www.hccs.edu/applying-and-paying/residency-information.

COST OF ATTENDANCE AND EXEMPTIONS/WAIVERS INFORMATION
Students are required to pay tuition and mandatory fees based on residency, as discussed above, and are subject to certain waivers and exemptions described elsewhere in this Catalog. Tuition and fee rates are published on the HCC website and can be accessed at

www.hccs.edu/applying-and-paying/tuition-calculator.

Some courses have additional fees specific to that course, such as laboratory and program fees. Check course listings for the additional fees. More information on course fees is contained below.
HCC charges a higher tuition rate to students registering for the third or subsequent time for certain courses. Students who enroll for most credit and Continuing Education Unit (CEU) classes for a third or more time will be charged an additional $50 per semester credit hour and $3.00 per contact hour, except for courses exempted by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board.
Parking Fees are not part of the published standard Tuition and Fee rates. Therefore, Parking Fees would be billed separately from these established rates. At this time, there is no charge for parking at most HCC locations.
HCC reserves the right to change its tuition and fees and refund policy structure wholly or in part during the year covered by this Catalog. Select fees are explained in more detail below.

Laboratory/Supply Fees
Laboratory supply fees, which help defray the cost of materials used in lab classes, vary. Certain programs have program-specific fees. Check course listings for additional fees in some classes.
Continuing Education Unit Course Tuition and Fees
Continuing Education Unit (CEU) course tuition and fees are based on the expenses unique to each course and/or program. Therefore, each course is priced individually. For a schedule of classes and for more information on tuition and fees and refunds, contact the School of Continuing Education at 713-718-5303 or visit www.hccs.edu/continuing-education.

Adult High School Costs
Adult High School is a credit recovery program designed to assist current high school students. For more information on the program, see the Adult Education & Literacy Programs: Adult High School section of this Catalog below. The costs associated with this program are as follows:
Recovery Credit - $165 per half-credit plus $10 materials fee
Original Credit (online) - $255 per half-credit plus $10 materials fee
Tuition Rebate Program
Students who graduate with a baccalaureate degree from a Texas public university may qualify to receive $1,000 from the baccalaureate-granting institution if they meet the following criteria:
Must have enrolled in a Texas public institution of higher education in fall 1997 or thereafter;
Must have been a resident of Texas and entitled to pay in-state tuition at all times while pursuing the degree;
Must have received a baccalaureate degree from a Texas public university; or
Must have attempted no more than three hours in excess of the minimum number of semester hours required to complete the degree in the catalog under which one graduated.
Hours attempted include transfer credits, course credits earned exclusively by examination, courses that are dropped after the official census date. Hours attempted shall not include: course credit that is earned to satisfy requirements for a ROTC program but that is not required to complete the degree program; course credit, other than course credit earned exclusively by examination, that is earned before graduating from high school; and courses dropped for reasons that are determined by the institution to be totally beyond the control of the student.
Students are encouraged to consult advisors to plan their course of study at the community college level to maximize their chances of qualifying for this rebate when they transfer and graduate from a college or university with a baccalaureate degree and to look at baccalaureate granting investing.
Tuition and Fees Payment
When a student registers for any class at Houston Community College (HCC) or receives any service from HCC, that student accepts full responsibility to pay all tuition, fees and other associated costs assessed as a result of registration and/or receipt of services.
Students should carefully review the Student Financial Responsibility Agreement and Acknowledgment of HCC Policies to understand their financial obligations to HCC:
hccs.edu/resources-for/current-students/student-financial-services/student-financial-responsibility-agreement
Tuition bills will not be mailed to students. Students may view or print their current bill by logging into their student account by visiting myeagle.hccs.edu. Students with questions about their tuition can contact the Bursar's Office at 713-718-5077.
Payments and Payment Plans
HCC makes education affordable to students. Students have several options to pay their tuition and fees. Information on the payment options available to students, including installment plans, is available at:

www.hccs.edu/resources-for/current-students/student-financial-services/payments-and-payment-plan

At the time of registration, students will need to select their intended payment option to complete their enrollment. All HCC students are expected to pay their account balance in full or make payment arrangements according to the payment option selected during enrollment. For each payment option, payment to HCC is required within a specific timeframe. Students are not registered for any course until the full account balance is paid in full, or a payment plan contract is executed.
Students who fail to make payments within the payment timeframe allotted may be dropped from some or all classes, and will be required to register again. Course/section availability cannot be guaranteed upon re-registration.
Students are responsible for paying all charges arising from registration/enrollment. These may include charges arising from reduction of financial aid award(s) due to change in enrollment and/or eligibility status.

A complete listing of all Cashier’s Offices by college, including contact and location information, can be found at www.hccs.edu/applying-and-paying/business-office-locations.

Returned Checks
A $25.00 returned check fee may be assessed when a check payment or an electronic check (e-check) payment is returned unpaid.
Delinquent Student Account Balances
Holds will be placed on the student record preventing registration, grades, transcripts and other college services as the account balance becomes delinquent. Balances not settled may be forwarded to a collection agency. It is the student’s responsibility to pay collection fees, which may be based on a percentage at a maximum of 24% of the debt, and all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incur in such collection efforts.
Notification of the outstanding student account balance is delivered by email to the student’s college email address and/or personal emails on file. Students can always view the balance and details online. It is the student’s responsibility to update their email and mailing addresses each time there is a change. Notifications sent by the college through any of these addresses are considered delivered.
Students are encouraged to check their account balance by logging into their student account by visiting myeagle.hccs.edu.
Refunds and Credit Balances
HCC Eagle Card
In June 2016, HCC contracted with BankMobile Disbursement to manage student refunds through the HCC Eagle Card. Students can choose either to open a BankMobile account or have their refunds deposited to an existing account by clicking “Choose a Refund Option” button on their student center page.
Credit Balances and Refunds
Credits generated as a result from dropped/cancelled courses and/or arising from overpayments shall be refunded after the official date of record or earlier upon student request to bursar.refunds@hccs.edu. Credits resulting from credit card payments shall be refunded to the same credit card used for initial payment as the first option. However, if it is not practicable, HCC may refund it through HCC Eagle Card. Credits resulting from cash, checks, and money order payments will be reimbursed through BankMobile Disbursement.
Amount of refunds for withdrawals are determined in accordance with the Drop and Withdrawal Refund Schedule based on total semester fees. If the student has established a payment plan, any remaining installment payments due are deducted from the refund amount. Any reduction in the balance due to a withdrawal will be adjusted on the remaining installments.
Course withdrawal does not release the student from the obligation to pay any balance owed to the College. One hundred percent (100%) refund before class begins of ALL tuition and fees will be made ONLY when the college chooses not to offer the class, college error is involved, or before the applicable drop deadline. See below for additional information.
Refund of Financial Aid Residual
The Financial Aid Office determines the schedule of financial aid refunds in accordance with the requirements of the Department of Education. More information is available by calling the Financial Aid District Call Center at 713-718-2000, and select option 2.

ACADEMIC INFORMATION
Course and Program Definitions
The following definitions are in alignment with Texas Administrative Code Title 19, Part 1, Chapter 4, Subchapter P – Approval of Distance Education Courses and Programs for Public Institutions, Section 4.257 – Definitions:
Online Course – A course in which the majority of the instruction takes place in an online forum. An online course may include mandatory face-to-face sessions totaling no more than 15 percent of the total instructional time. Examples of face-to-face sessions include orientation, laboratory, exam review, or in-person tests.
Online Programs – A program in which the majority of the curriculum is delivered in an online forum. An online program may include mandatory face-to-face courses totaling no more than 15 percent of the total curriculum.
Hybrid Course – A course in which approximately half of the instruction takes place in an online forum. Hybrid courses should have regularly designated face-to-face and online sessions throughout the academic term.
Hybrid Programs – A program in which approximately half of the curriculum (more than 50 percent but less than 85 percent) takes place in an online forum. The remainder of the curriculum is delivered traditionally via face-to-face instruction.
Traditional Course – A course in which the majority of instruction occurs during regularly- scheduled, face-to-face sessions in a conventional classroom environment. A traditional course may incorporate online mechanisms to deliver portions of the course; however, the majority of instruction should occur during the regularly scheduled, face-to-face sessions.
Traditional Programs – A program in which the majority of curriculum is delivered via face-to- face instruction. A traditional program may deliver some of the curriculum via an online forum; however, the majority of curriculum would be delivered via face-to-face instruction.
Online Courses

www.hccs.edu/online

HCC’s online courses are one to four credit hours and are equivalent to on-campus courses in terms of transferability (no distinction is made on the transcript). Students are encouraged to visit the

Online College’s homepage at and degree offerings.
Attendance Policy

to see availability of online classes, certificates,

Students are expected to attend all lecture classes and labs regularly. Students are also responsible for materials covered during their absences. Instructors may be willing to consult with students for make-up assignments, but it is the students’ responsibility to contact the instructor. Class attendance is monitored daily. Although it is the student’s responsibility to drop a course for nonattendance, the instructor has the authority to drop a student for excessive absences. A student may be dropped from a course after accumulating absences in excess of 12.5% of the total hours of instruction (lecture and lab). For example:
For a 3 credit-hour lecture class meeting 3 hours per week (48 hours of instruction), a student can be dropped after 6 hours of absence.
For a 4 credit-hour lecture/lab course meeting 6 hours per week (96 hours of instruction), a student can be dropped after 12 hours of absence.

Departments and programs governed by accreditation or certification standards may have different attendance policies. Administrative drops are at the discretion of the instructor. Failure to withdraw officially can result in a grade of “F” in the course.
For medical issues or other problems affecting attendance, students should speak with their instructors.
NOTE: It is the responsibility of the student to withdraw officially from a course.
Grading System
HCC uses the following standard grading system:

Grade	Grade Interpretation	Grade Points	
A	Excellent (90-100)	4	
B	Good (80-89)	3	
C	Fair (70-79)	2	
D	Passing (60-69), except in developmental courses.	1	
F	Failing (59 and below)	0	
FX	Failing due to non-attendance	0	
IP	In Progress	0	
W	Withdrawn	0	
I	Incomplete	0	
AUD	Audit	0	
IP	In Progress. Given only in certain developmental courses. A student must re-enroll to receive credit.	0	
COM	Completed. Given in non-credit and continuing education courses.	0	
All grade points listed in the table above are per semester hour.
Note that some Health Sciences programs use a different grading scale.
Grade Point Average (GPA)
Grade points earned for each course are determined by multiplying the number of points for each grade by the number of semester hours the course carries.
To compute a student’s grade point average (GPA), divide the total grade points by the total number of semester hours attempted. The grades “IP”, “W”, “AUD”, “COM”, and “I” do not affect the student’s GPA.
Incompletes
The grade of “I” (Incomplete) is conditional. A student receiving an “I” must arrange with the instructor to complete the course work within six (6) months of the end of the incomplete term. After the deadline, the “I” becomes an “F.” Upon completion of the course work, the grade will be entered as an “I” grade on the student transcript. All “I”s must be changed to grades prior to graduation.

Repetition of Courses
After the close of each semester, a check of a student’s enrollment history is conducted and courses taken more than once are marked as a repeat. If a student repeats a course in which a grade (A-F) has been received, the highest grade received is the permanent grade for the course and will be used in computing the grade point average. All grades earned in a given course will be entered on the transcript. Other colleges may compute the GPA differently than HCC.
No Late Registration
It is the official policy of HCC that there is no late registration.
A student may register for a class as long as it has not already met for the first time. A student may not register for a course if it has already met once. If it is believed that an extenuating circumstance exists, the student should be referred to the Dean of Student Success or designee.
An example of an extenuating circumstance is a cancelled class. A cancelled class is beyond the control of a student, and is an issue created by the college. In the event of a cancelled class, it may be appropriate to make an exception to the late registration procedure.
Academic Progress Requirements
A student’s academic progress will be evaluated for the first time after a minimum of nine (9) attempted semester hours. A student’s academic standing is determined at the end of the Fall semester (December), Spring semester (May) and Summer semester (August).
To maintain satisfactory academic progress, a student is expected to maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 based upon the aggregate number of hours attempted at Houston Community College.
Students who maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above are considered to be in good academic standing.
Students who do not maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 will be placed on academic probation, continued academic probation or academic suspension as defined below. These three academic status levels alert students that action is required. Students are expected to establish contact with their counselor and/or college advising center for support and assistance with improving their academic standing.
Each academic status level is defined below with the required action by the student:

Academic Status Level	Definition	Action Required by Student	
Good Standing	Cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above	None	
Academic Probation	Cumulative GPA below 2.0	Attend a SLIP session and have two (2) follow-up counseling sessions during the semester to improve academic standing	
Continued Academic Probation	Cumulative GPA below 2.0 and term GPA 2.0 or above	Continue to work with the counselor from a previous semester, as needed, to improve academic standing	
Academic Suspension	Previous term status of Academic Probation or Continued Academic	Attend a SLIP session and work with counselor to improve academic standing	

Academic Status Level	Definition	Action Required by Student	
	Probation and term GPA below 2.0		
Additionally, students placed on academic probation or academic suspension should note the following:
Students on academic suspension are required to attend a Successful Learning Intervention Program (SLIP) session at the college they attend prior to re-enrollment, and prior to meeting with their designated counselor.
The student’s counselor will stipulate conditions of enrollment including, but not limited to, maximum hours and/or specific courses.
Students on Academic Suspension may be unable to enroll in classes for one (1) semester.
A student may appeal an Academic Suspension may by completing the necessary paperwork obtained at the college’s counseling center. For more information on appealing a suspension, students may contact their college’s counseling center. See Counseling Contact Information at www.hccs.edu/online/counseling-services.
The following requirements also apply to the determination of academic progress:
Students enrolled in multiple summer sessions will have their entire summer’s work evaluated for determination of their academic status.
Students in certain Health Sciences programs are required to maintain a grade of “C” in all courses in order to continue in the program. Students not meeting these standards may continue to enroll at HCC in other programs as long as they maintain minimum HCC requirements. Health Sciences students should check their program’s requirements by visiting www.hccs.edu/programs/areas-of-study/health-sciences.
Students are responsible for knowing whether they have passed the minimum standards for continuation in college. Ineligible students who register will be subject to dismissal with forfeiture of all tuition and fees.
If a student has any questions, please contact a campus academic advisor and for information on How to Meet with an Academic Advisor see www.hccs.edu/support-services/advising.
Change of Schedule: Drop/Add/Swap
Before Classes Begin
Students may add classes but only through the drop/add/swap period. Payment of course fee is made at the time of the change. If a class is full, consider taking the course at a different time, location, via Distance Education, or in the second start session.
After Classes Begin
Students can make a class change online through the drop/add/swap period listed in the academic calendar found at www.hccs.edu/calendar.
Approval or requests for changes will be based on the availability of space in the class to which the student wishes to transfer.

Deadline for changing schedule or adding courses is as follows:
In-Person – Friday before the start of the session;
Online – Night before the start of the session.
Dropping Courses
Students should make sure they are aware of penalties regarding financial aid, additional tuition costs, etc. before withdrawing from course.
It is the responsibility of the student to officially drop or withdraw from a course. Failure to officially withdraw may result in the student receiving a grade of “F” in the course. A student may officially withdraw in any of the following ways:
Drop online from the student’s account. A student may login to his/her Student Account by visiting myeagle.hccs.edu and selecting “Student Sign-In.”
Send a letter requesting withdrawal to:
Registrar
Houston Community College P. O. Box 667517
Houston, TX 77266-7517
The withdrawal will be effective the date of postmark.
Fax a letter of withdrawal to 713-718-2111.
A student who officially withdraws from a course before the Official Date of Record will not receive a grade and the course will not appear on the student’s permanent record. A student withdrawing from a course after this period and prior to the deadline designated in the HCC calendar will receive a grade of “W”.
Limitation/Costs of Course Withdrawals
Under Section 51.907 of the Texas Education Code, an institution of higher education may not permit a student to drop more than six (6) courses, including any course a transfer student has dropped at another institution of higher education. This statute was enacted by the State of Texas in the Spring 2007, and applies to students who enroll in a public institution of higher education as a first-time freshman in the Fall 2007 or later. Any course that a student drops is counted toward the six-course limit if (1) the student was able to drop the course without receiving a grade or incurring an academic penalty; (2) the student’s transcript indicates or will indicate that the student was enrolled in the course; and (3) the student is not dropping the course in order to withdraw from the institution. High school students enrolled in HCC Dual Credit and Early College are waived from this requirement until they graduate from high school. All college-level courses dropped after the Official Day of Record are included in the six-course limit unless the student demonstrates to an appropriate college official that one of the following events occurred to the student during the semester or summer session:
A severe illness or other debilitating condition that affects the student’s ability to satisfactorily complete the course (see Medical Withdrawal/Compassionate Withdrawal Application Process below);
The student’s responsibility for the care of a sick, injured, or needy person if the provision of that care affects the student’s ability to satisfactorily complete the course.

The death of a person who is considered to be a member of the student’s family or who is otherwise considered to have a sufficiently close relationship to the student that the person’s death is considered to be a showing of good cause.
The active duty service as a member of the Texas National Guard or the armed forces of the United States of either the student or a person who is considered to be a member of the student’s family and such active duty interferes with the student’s ability to satisfactorily complete the course.
The change of the student’s work schedule that is beyond the control of the student and that affects the student’s ability to satisfactorily complete the course.
Other personal or family reason that is considered catastrophic or beyond the control of the student and interferes with the student’s ability to satisfactorily complete the course (as determined by the college official; see also Medical Withdrawal/Compassionate Withdrawal Application Process below).
For questions regarding the six-drop course limit, students should contact the Office of Enrollment Services at their college.
HCC students affected by this statute that have attended or plan to attend another institution of higher education should become familiar with that institution’s policies on dropping courses.
Other laws affecting course drops are as follows: Senate Bill 1782 - Effective June 1, 2018

www.hccs.edu/about-hcc/procedures/student-rightspolicies--procedures

Allows students who have accrued at least 50 semester credit hours and stopped-out for 24 months, a one-time exemption from the six-drop and three-peat rules. For more information regarding these rules, see Course Withdrawals (6-drop rule) and Repeating Course (Three-Peat rule) at
.
A Senate Bill 1782 qualifying student may drop one (1) additional course, for a total of seven (7) drops. If a student once again drops out for a 24-month period, the student is not granted an additional drop.
Senate Bill 1782 qualifying students should contact the Enrollment Services Office at their college to provide documentation and obtain a waiver form.
Medical Withdrawal/Compassionate Withdrawal Application Process

Respective students on academic probation and suspension will be reported to the Department of Veterans Affairs. Please see the Requirements for Academic Progress section of this Catalog for more information.
Time Frame Component
A student receiving the Hazlewood Act exemption will be expected to complete their educational attainment objective or course of study within their first 90 semester hours.
Grades of “F, FX, I, NG, or W” repeated courses are counted in the aggregate total number of hours attempted. Students will not receive the exemption if the course has previously been passed, unless the program of study requires students to take the course more than twice in order to achieve a required grade.
Please see the Grading System section of this Catalog for grade definitions.
Repeating Courses for Veteran and Military-Affiliated Students
Students using VA educational or Hazlewood Act benefits may not retake a course in which a passing grade or a temporary grade of “I” is awarded.
It is ultimately the responsibility of the student to know which course(s) has/have been completed. Students may check their progress by logging into their student account and viewing their advisement report (iAAR).

The HCC VMASS District office is required to notify the VA of any course duplications, and appropriate changes will be made when a student has taken a class that has been deemed successfully completed.
Activated Reservists
A HCC student who is attending classes and is called to active duty during a semester may elect to do one of the following:
Receive a refund for the tuition and fees paid for the semester from which the student withdraws;
Receive an incomplete grade in all courses by designating “withdrawn” on the transcript; or
Request the instructor to assign an appropriate final grade or credit if the student has satisfactorily completed a substantial amount of course work and demonstrated sufficient mastery of the course material.

www.hccs.edu/support-

The amount of the refund is contingent upon the course drop date in accordance with the Drop and Withdrawal Refund Schedule, found at the Refunds and Credit Balances section of this Catalog. To drop/withdraw from courses, submit a VMASS Certification Request at
services/veteran-affairs/vmass-certification-request.
Satisfactory Academic Progress Requirements for Financial Aid Students
Financial aid students must meet the following Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) requirements set by the federal government:
Must maintain a term GPA of 2.0 or higher;
Must complete at least 67% of attempted courses for the academic year; and
Must enroll in courses leading to an HCC degree or certificate.
Students who do not maintain the standards listed above will be ineligible to receive financial aid. Students should note that SAP Requirements to maintain financial aid are not the same as academic progress requirements (see Academic Progress Requirements section of this Catalog). A student may appeal a suspension of financial aid by submitting a written request to the college Financial Aid Office, online or in-person. For more information regarding the financial aid SAP requirement and appeal of suspension options is available in the college Financial Aid Offices and online at

www.hccs.edu/applying-and-paying/financial-aid/satisfactory-academic-progress.

Progress Records
A student can check their grades at any point by logging into their Student Account. A student may login to his/her Student Account by visiting myeagle.hccs.edu and selecting “Student Sign-In.”
Grade Reports
Grades generally post one week after the last final exam for that particular session or semester.

Graduation
Prior to graduation, students must submit all official transcripts of credits transferred from other institutions to the Office of Admissions and Records. A candidate for any degree or certificate must meet the graduation requirements in the catalog for the year of initial enrollment unless the student elects to graduate under the requirements of a more recent catalog. The candidate must indicate the catalog choice when applying for graduation. A student who does not maintain enrollment at HCC and has a gap in enrollment for a period of more than one calendar year is required to graduate under the catalog requirements set by the student’s year of readmission. Current and archived catalogs can be found at www.hccs.edu/programs/catalog.
To be considered as a candidate for the AA, AS, AAT, AAS degree or Certificate of Completion, students must meet with their advisor and get approval and then complete the application online through their student center. This should be done at the time of registration for the student’s final semester, or during registration for the Spring semester if the student wants to participate in the May ceremony.
Students who are unable to complete their degree plan on file at HCC may transfer back up to 45 semester hours of equivalent courses from an accredited institution. These courses must be completed within three years of their last semester of enrollment at HCC. All other graduation requirements must be satisfied including the requirement that 25% of a student’s degree must be completed at HCC.
Students who want a printed diploma must check the diploma box on the application and provide a diploma mailing address. There is no charge for the diploma. Students may request their records be reviewed at the conclusion of their course work so the appropriate degree or certificate will be recorded on the student’s transcript. Students can meet with their advisor to review their records.

graduation@hccs.edu

If a student did not elect to receive a copy of his/her diploma, a copy may be requested from the

Registrar. Students may email
Graduation Honors

regarding their diploma or graduation status.

Graduation honors will be awarded to students pursuing an associate with superior cumulative GPAs. The following classifications of honors will be recognized on the student’s transcript and diploma:
Highest Honors - GPA 3.80 or above
High Honors - GPA 3.60 to 3.79
Honors - GPA 3.35 to 3.59
HCC will use the following guidelines to compute honors eligibility:
The student must complete at least 25% of the degree at HCC; and
The student must complete requirements for the AA, AS, AAT or AAS degree (certificate graduates do not receive honors).
The grades in all HCC courses, including Developmental work, will figure in the cumulative GPA. Developmental course grades are excluded from the degree GPA.
Courses taken through the preceding fall semester will be used in computing the GPA for the purposes of determining graduation honors for the ceremony. The student must have completed 75% of the course work for the degree at that time.

Please see the Grading System section of this Catalog for more information on computing the student’s GPA.
Participation in the Graduation Exercises
HCC holds two student graduation ceremonies each year, one in December for fall graduates, and one in May for spring graduates. Candidates for degrees and certificates are encouraged to attend the graduation ceremonies. Students who complete course requirements in summer 2020 may participate in the Fall 2020 ceremony.
Records and Transcripts
A transcript of college credits is an official copy of the student’s permanent record bearing the HCC seal and the signature of the Registrar. Students may request an official transcript online, by phone, or by ordering and picking up in-person at a specific campus locations (see website for more information).
It is highly recommended that transcripts be sent electronically to colleges and universities to expedite processing. There is a charge for transcript processing. All admissions information must be on file and all holds cleared before a student’s record will be released. A student should allow a week for delivery following the transcript request. Additional time should be allowed at the close of a semester. Students needing a transcript should allow one week after the end of a semester to ensure all grades have been entered for the term.
Students should request transcripts of work completed at another institution from that institution.
For more information on ordering official transcripts from HCC, including fees and campus pick up locations, please visit www.hccs.edu/resources-for/current-students/transcripts. Certain notations required by law are included on the transcripts, such as student discipline information, in addition to grades.
Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 was established to protect the privacy rights of all students and applies to any educational facility receiving federal funds. FERPA prevents the release of certain information held within student records. HCC complies with the FERPA when collecting, maintaining, and releasing student records.
Release of Student Records/Information
FERPA affords students in “attendance” at Houston Community College (HCC) certain rights with respect to their education records. “Attendance” is defined by HCC as beginning on the first day of the term in which a student is enrolled. These student rights include:
The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the College receives a request for access. A student should submit to the registrar a written request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect. The college official will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the college official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed.

The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes are inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student’s privacy rights under FERPA. A student who wishes to ask the College to amend a record should write the College official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record the student wants changed and specify why it should be changed. If the College decides not to amend the record as requested, the College will notify the student in writing of the decision and the student’s right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. See policy FJ(LOCAL) available at

www.hccs.edu/about-hcc/policies/hcc-board-policy-manual-section-f.

The right to provide written consent before the College discloses personally identifiable information from the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. The College may disclose education records without a student’s prior written consent under several FERPA exceptions including:
Disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests
A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the College has contracted as its agent to provide a service instead of using College employees or officials (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks.
A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibilities for the College.
The student’s application for financial aid
Submitting proof of dependency
Response to a judicial order or subpoena
A bona fide health or safety emergency
Information requested by other schools in which the student seeks or intends to enroll
Directory information (described below)
As of January 2012, the U.S. Department of Education’s FERPA regulations expanded the circumstances under which a student’s education records and personally identifiable information (PII) contained in such records—including a student’s SSN, grades, or other private information— may be accessed without a student’s consent.
First, the U.S. Comptroller General, the U.S. Attorney General, the U.S. Secretary of Education, or state and local education authorities (“Federal and State Authorities”) may allow access to a student’s records and PII without a student’s consent to any third party designated by a Federal or State Authority to evaluate a federal or state-supported education program. The evaluation may relate to any program that is “principally engaged in the provision of education,” such as early childhood education and job training, as well as any program that is administered by an education agency or institution.

Second, Federal and State Authorities may allow access to a student’s education records and PII without a student’s consent to researchers performing certain types of studies, in certain cases even when HCC objects or does not request such research. Federal and State Authorities must obtain certain use-restriction and data security promises from the entities that they authorize to receive a student’s PII, but the Authorities need not maintain direct control over such entities.
In addition, in connection with Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems, State Authorities may collect, compile, permanently retain, and share without a student’s consent PII from a student’s education records, and they may track a student’s participation in education and other programs by linking such PII to other personal information about a student that they obtain from other Federal or State data sources, including workforce development, unemployment insurance, child welfare, juvenile justice, military service, and migrant student records systems.
FERPA also designates certain information related to a student as “Directory Information.” FERPA gives the College the right to disclose such information to anyone inquiring without having to ask a student for permission, unless the student specifically requests in writing that all such information not be made public without written consent (see location of HCC Confidentiality Form below) except by the National Student Clearinghouse to loan guarantors.
Houston Community College has designated the following as “Student Directory Information:”
Student’s name;
Address and telephone number;
Date of birth;
Major field of study;
Enrollment status (full/part-time);
Classification;
Dates of attendance at HCC;
Number of semester hours completed and in progress;
Student classification;
Degrees earned and dates awarded; and
Most recent previous educational institution attended.
If a student does not want directory information released, the student must complete a confidentiality request form at the college campus and submit to the Enrollment Services Office.
The Confidentiality Form is located at

www.hccs.edu/media/houston-community-college/district/pdf/confidentiality-form.pdf.

Release of any additional information pertaining to student records must be authorized by the student (i.e., grades, transcripts). If a student wishes to authorize HCC to release information to another person, he/she must complete an Authorization to Release Information form and submit with proper identification to the Enrollment Services Office at the college. The form will specify duration and information allowed to be released.
The Authorization to Release information form is located at

www.hccs.edu/media/houston-community-college/district/pdf/ferpa/FERPA-Release-Form.pdf.

If a student is not able to sign the Authorization to Release Information form in person at the Campus Registration Office, he/she must complete the FERPA Notary Form. The FERPA Notary Form

must be notarized and is located at

www.hccs.edu/media/houston-community-college/district/pdf/ferpa/FERPA-Notary-Form.pdf.

The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the College to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA is:
Family Policy Compliance Office
U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20202-5901

Student Identification Card
Student identification (ID) cards are required once a student has registered and paid for classes. The card will be needed for library and computer lab usage, admission to college activities, and voting in campus elections. ID cards are non-transferable and are to be held only by the students to whom they were issued. Students may obtain their HCC ID card by visiting the West Loop Campus on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Student IDs may also be obtained at any of the other campuses operating a photo ID station. Check with the Campus Manager for the location and hours of campus photo ID stations. Students are required to be in possession of their ID card at all times. All ID cards are the property of HCC and must be shown when requested by a representative of HCC. If students lose their ID cards, they should report it to the HCC Police Department by calling 713-718-8888 as soon as it is discovered as missing. To obtain a replacement ID card, students must initiate the process at the college campus they attend. A nominal fee will be charged for the replacement of lost ID cards.

Advising Services
Advisors provide one-on-one advising support for students, assist with pathway planning, and provide information about institutional and external resources available to students.
HCC requires all new HCC students to enroll in a Student Success Course in their first semester to help them determine their major, program, or area of study, and plan their degree path. Once a student has selected his/her “major,” instructors who teach the courses in that field (e.g., accounting, computer science, history) will be his/her best academic advisors. If a student plans to transfer to complete a baccalaureate degree, it is important to determine a major and the transfer institution as soon as possible, because different colleges and universities may have different requirements. New students are assigned an advisor.

Ability Support Services
Services for Students with a Qualified Disability
Houston Community College (HCC) views equal access as a shared responsibility between HCC and the student. HCC recognizes students with disabilities as a valued element of diversity and ensures that no academically qualified student with a disability will be denied access to or participation in the services, programs, and activities of HCC. HCC makes its campuses and programs accessible to individuals with disabilities.
ADA Accommodation Process for HCC Students
The Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended, prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities and requires postsecondary institutions to provide accommodations when a student discloses a disability. In college, students with disabilities are covered under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, which also prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities, and under the Americans with Disabilities Act. HCC’s obligations under these laws are different than what students will have experienced during high school. HCC’s objective of reasonable accommodations in college is to accommodate the functional limitations of the student while maintaining the integrity of college courses and programs. Colleges provide reasonable accommodations, and not modifications, to courses in accordance with federal law.
Student’s Responsibility
Obtaining reasonable accommodations is a process that is voluntary on behalf of the student and interactive. It is the student’s responsibility to self-identify, disclose his/her disability or condition to the Ability Services Office, provide the appropriate documentation from a qualified professional, usually a physician or clinician, with a diagnosis of his/her disability (s), and request reasonable accommodations. The Ability Services Office, in communication with the student, will issue a letter detailing the student’s approved reasonable accommodations. Once the ADA

accommodation letter is received by the student, the student should contact his/her instructors at the start of the semester and present the letter to them. Accommodation letters are not retroactively applied. It is the student’s responsibility to communicate his/her questions or concerns associated with his/her accommodation letter to the Ability Services office in a timely manner. Due to high demands for services, HCC strongly encourages students to request accommodations before the start of each academic term. Failure to provide sufficient documentation or timely request accommodations may delay the delivery of accommodations. Returning students should contact the Ability Services office at the beginning of each semester to receive their reasonable accommodation letters. Additional documentation may be requested if students request to change their existing accommodations.
Examples of Reasonable Accommodations
Examples of accommodations students have received include, but are not limited to, extra time for testing, use of a tape recorder in classroom, Sign Language interpretation or CART services, preferential seating in the classroom, and alternate textbooks.
ADA Counselors

www.hccs.edu/support-services/ability-services

The point of contact for the HCC students with a qualified disability seeking accommodations under the ADA is the Ability Services Office. The Ability Services Offices are located at each of our 6 colleges. For the list of ADA counselors and their contact information visit
.
Students, who are only enrolled in online classes, can contact any of the ADA counselors to request ADA accommodations.
Grievance and Appeal Process
Reports of discrimination based on disability may be directed to the ADA/Section 504 coordinator. HCC designates the following person to coordinate its efforts to comply with Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, which incorporates and expands the requirements of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended:
David Cross, Director EEO/Compliance, Title IX Coordinator/Section 504 Coordinator Office of Institutional Equity

HCC licensed databases can be accessed anywhere using a student’s HCC ID (“W” number) and the same password used to access a student’s HCC email, student account, and computers. Library accounts are used to request items from any HCC library and renew items. To login to a student’s library account, a student should use their first name and last name, leaving a space between. A student’s password will be your library barcode # from your student ID card. For more information, go to library.hccs.edu/howdoi.
More Than Books and Databases
HCC Libraries provides access to computers, printing, photocopying, scanning, DVDs, streaming video, Chromebooks, study rooms, 3D printing, and one-button studio access in certain locations. Assistive technology includes laptops with ADA software installed, TOPAZ video magnifiers, purple phones and more. More information regarding these resources is available at library.hccs.edu/accessibility.
How Do I Check Out What I Need?
A student ID card is a library card. Library material can be checked out for 3 weeks and renewed twice. Students can renew twice by telephone or the library website.
Overdue Library Materials
The card inside books shows when materials are to be returned. If a student fails to return materials, a “hold” status is reported and reflected on their student record(s). A hold will affect a student’s ability to register for additional courses or obtain a transcript. Students will be blocked from further borrowing until the materials due are returned to the library. Lost, damaged and stolen items are the responsibility of the borrower.

BOOKSTORE
Students may purchase textbooks, study aids, and a wide range of novelty items and apparel at the college bookstore. Students are encouraged to purchase books prior to the first day of class and can locate their course materials online at www.hccs.bncollege.com. Students should bring a copy of their class schedule to ensure that they are purchasing the correct texts. The bookstore will issue full refunds for textbooks during the first week of each term, provided the textbook is in original condition as when purchased and the original receipt is presented with request.

INTERNATIONAL SERVICES AND PROGRAMS (ISP)
Contacting International Student Services and Programs

oiss.international@hccs.edu

Individuals seeking to enroll at HCC as F-1 students may also contact International Services and
Programs at 713-718-8521 or	or visit the office at 3200 Main St.,
Houston, Texas 77002 (street level of the parking garage) during normal business hours, Monday- Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Prospective students may also learn more at www.hccs.edu/international.
F-1 International Students
Houston Community College (HCC) considers students holding a nonimmigrant visa to be an international student. Prospective students maintaining any other type of visa status, except F-2 and B (visiting) visas, may enroll at HCC as permitted by U.S. federal law. The student should call their HCC college of choice for admission instructions and meet the published application deadline.
International students who want to study in the U.S. with an F-1 status must obtain a Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) Certificate of Eligibility, also referred to as a SEVIS Form I-20, from HCC. HCC has been approved by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to issue SEVIS Form I-20s required to obtain F-1 student status. The individual must then use the SEVIS Form I- 20 to apply for an F-1 student visa (if outside the U.S.) or a change of non-immigrant classification to F-1 (if inside the U.S.). U.S. federal regulations require all applicants to provide certain documentation and information to the college issuing the SEVIS Form I-20 before it can be issued to a student. To apply for a SEVIS Form I-20, please refer to the “International Students” section of the HCC website (see link below) and follow the outlined application guidelines.
An international student under the age of 18 who wishes to gain admission to HCC must provide documentation proving that he/she has achieved the equivalency of a U.S. high school diploma in his/her country by completing a transcript evaluation with an approved evaluation agency. F-1 students must maintain full-time status, which is defined as being enrolled in a minimum of 12 semester credit hours for the spring and fall semesters or a minimum of 9 semester credit hours for the summer term, provided in that case that summer is the initial semester of enrollment at HCC.
International Student Advisors/Designated School Officials (ISA/DSO) report all changes in enrollment status pertaining to F-1 internationals (both students and alumni) to DHS as required by
U.S. federal law.
F-1 international students must adhere to the U.S. federal regulations governing their nonimmigrant status while studying in the U.S. Non-compliance could jeopardize an F-1 international student’s ability to remain in the U.S and complete his/her studies at HCC. Students with questions may schedule an appointment with International Services and Programs (ISP) to discuss their options.
For more information, see www.hccs.edu/support-services/international-students.
Full-Time Enrollment Requirements for International Students
In order to maintain their visa status, effective Fall 2017, F-1 international students must earn letter grades (A, B, C, D or F). A grade of a “W” (withdrawn) or “FX” (failing due to non-attendance) will not count towards the full-time enrollment requirement. “W” or “FX” is not considered a valid letter grade and demonstrates the student is not maintaining F-1 immigration status.

F-1 students must maintain at least 12 credit hours during the fall and spring semesters (9 credit hours during the summer, provided this is their first semester of attendance at HCC). International students holding an F-1 visa are limited to no more than the equivalent of one class or 3 credit hours of distance education (online class) per semester that will count towards the full-time status.
Concurrent Enrollment for F-1 International Students
An F-1 student maintaining his/her F-1 status at another educational institution and wishing to be concurrently enrolled at HCC must obtain a letter from the ISA/DSO at his/her parent institution confirming permission to take classes at HCC under the F-1 status. F-1 students maintaining status at other educational institutions are not eligible to work on the HCC campus until the student has received a SEVIS Form I-20 from HCC and approval to work on campus from an HCC ISA/DSO.
For more information, see www.hccs.edu/support-services/international-students/.
Summer International Transient Students
Students who are attending another college or university and wish to take summer classes at HCC must provide a letter from the ISA/DSO at their parent institution that indicates they are maintaining their F-1 status and have been given permission to enroll at HCC.
English Proficiency and Course Placement
International students planning to enroll in academic programs must demonstrate English language proficiency. This can be accomplished by taking one of the following exams: TOEFL, IELTS, PTE Academic, ACCUPLACER (ESL), or an approved Texas Success Initiative (TSI) test. Students who have not taken an English language proficiency test will be administered the ACCUPLACER (ESL) test by HCC to determine the student’s English language proficiency. Scores on the exams must meet state and institutional requirements for placement into college-level classes. Students who do not meet these requirements will be required to enroll in the Intensive English program. For more information, please visit www.hccs.edu/support-services/international-students/foreign-credentials.
International Transfer Students
A transfer student is any student who has previous college work and plans to pursue a certificate or degree at HCC. HCC admits transfer students who already have established F-1 status while attending other colleges and universities.

www.hccs.edu/support-services/international-students

A transfer student may be admitted to either an academic program or the Intensive English program. Students planning to transfer to HCC must submit a complete application to the Office of International Services and Programs. For more information, please refer to the International

HCC GUARANTEE OF EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE
Houston Community College is committed to excellence in education. As an expression of this commitment, HCC guarantees its graduates both transfer credit and entry-level job skills. Such guarantee is a statement of confidence in the administration, faculty, and staff as well as a commitment to our educational mission to empower students so they may achieve their highest potential.
This guarantee is expressly subject to and limited to special conditions identified in the following sections on job competency and transfer credit. The HCC obligation under this guarantee is limited to providing additional courses under the conditions prescribed in these sections.
Transfer Credit
HCC guarantees to those students earning the Associate of Arts, Associate of Arts in Teaching and the Associate of Science degrees that their required courses will transfer to all public-supported Texas colleges and universities. If these courses are rejected by the qualifying senior institution of the student’s choice, HCC will offer the student an alternate tuition-free course that will transfer.
Transferability means the acceptance of HCC credit toward a specific major and degree at a specific institution, as defined by the student’s transfer/degree plan. However, no institution of higher education shall be required to accept in transfer, or apply toward a degree program, more than sixty- six (66) semester credit hours of lower-division academic credit. Institutions of higher education may choose to accept additional credit hours by agreement. The transfer guarantee of academic courses is subject to the following conditions:
The student must file a written transfer/degree plan by the time he/she has completed 12 semester hours or the equivalent at HCC. The transfer/degree plan must include the following: (a) the specific institution to which the student plans to transfer, (b) the bachelor’s degree and major the student plans to pursue, and (c) the date such decision was made.
Courses must be identified by the receiving institutions as transferable and applicable toward a specific major. The receiving institution determines the following:
Total number of credits accepted for transfer;
Grades required;
Relevant grade point average; and
Duration of transferability.
Required courses must have been taken at HCC no earlier than three years before the attempt to transfer.

If the above terms and conditions have been met and courses are not accepted by a receiving institution in transfer, the following terms and conditions are applicable:
The student must submit to HCC a Notice of Transfer Credit Denial from the receiving institution (within 10 days of denial) so the resolution process may begin.
If transfer credit denial is not resolved, tuition-free transfer courses (semester hour for semester hour) must be taken within a one calendar year period.
Although courses are tuition-free, students will be responsible for any fees or course-related expenses, other than the course-required books which HCC is responsible for providing at no cost to the student. The fees students are responsible for include General Fees, Technology Fees, Student Activity/Services Fees, Recreation Fees, and Out-of-District fees.
Job Competency
HCC guarantees that graduates earning workforce certificates or degrees will possess the job skills required for entry-level employment in the occupational field for which they have been trained. (This guarantee does not imply the graduate will pass any licensing or qualifying examination for a particular career.)
Any HCC workforce program certificate or degree graduate whom the employer determines
is lacking in the technical or general educational skills necessary for entry to the position shall be provided up to nine tuition-free credit hours. A program of instruction must be designed to meet specific occupational competencies identified in technical courses which are competency-based and emphasize the acquisition of the skills necessary for immediate employment and/or career advancement. Program competencies are identified in the course syllabus provided to each student.
This guarantee applies only to certificates and degrees of at least 30 semester hours or 360 contact hours.
All course work in question must have been taken at HCC and taught by HCC instructors.
The graduate must have earned the AAS or certificate in a workforce program listed in the HCC catalog no earlier than one year prior to the beginning date of the employment in question.
The graduate must have completed the degree within a five-year period beginning at the point of first enrollment.
The graduate must be employed full-time within 12 months of graduation and in a position directly related to the specific program completed at HCC.
Within 90 days of the graduate’s initial date of employment, the employer must certify in writing that the graduate lacks entry-level skills identified by HCC as program-exit competencies. The employer must specify the areas of deficiency.
The employer, graduate, and HCC personnel will develop a written retraining plan. The retraining will be limited to nine credit hours or 360 contact hours related to the identified skill deficiency.
The retraining must be completed within one calendar year from the time the plan is agreed upon.
Although retraining is tuition-free, the graduate (or employer) is responsible for the cost of insurance, uniforms, fees, and any other course-related expenses. HCC is responsible for the cost of books required for the course work.

TRANSFER INFORMATION AND CREDIT
Transfer Policy
HCC analyzes credit accepted for transfer in terms of level, content, quality, comparability, and degree program relevance. Transfer of credit from one institution to another involves at least three considerations:
the educational quality of the learning experience which the student transfers;
the comparability of the nature, content, and level of the learning experience to that offered by the receiving institution; and
the appropriateness and applicability of the learning experience to the programs offered by the receiving institution, in light of the student’s educational goals.
Accreditations Accepted in Transfer
HCC accepts college level credit in transfer from colleges and universities accredited by any of the six regional accreditation bodies: Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, New England Association of Colleges and Schools, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities, Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, and the Western Association of Colleges and Schools.
In addition, HCC accepts college level credit in transfer from colleges and universities by any of the following national accreditation bodies: Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine, Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools, Accrediting Commission for Career Schools and Colleges, Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training, Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (prior to 12/31/2016), American Board of Funeral Service Education, Association of Advanced Rabbinical & Talmudic Schools Accreditation, Association of Biblical Higher Education, Commission of Accrediting of the Association of Theological Schools, Council on Occupational Education, Distance Education Accrediting Commission, National Association of Schools of Theatre, and Transnational Association of Christian College and Schools.
Students Transferring to HCC from Other Colleges/Universities
Transfer students are students who have previous college work and plan to pursue a certificate or degree at HCC. HCC evaluates, accepts, and awards credit for transfer course work, experiential learning, advanced placement, and professional certificates that is consistent with the HCC mission and for which HCC can ensure that the course work and learning outcomes are at the collegiate level and comparable to HCC certificate and degree programs. Transfer students are required to send official transcripts from each previously attended college or university. Transfer work is evaluated within the first semester of attendance. If students submit their prior college work after the start of their first semester, their credit will not be posted until the official transcript arrives.
Prior Learning Assessment Credit
Prior Learning Assessment (PLA) is a process for assessing learning gained outside a traditional academic environment. This could be learning acquired through military service, employer training programs, independent study, non-credit courses, open courseware, or volunteer or community service. Prior Learning Assessment (PLA) is a means of evaluating what a student already knows at the college-level derived from these experiences for college credit, certification, or advanced

standing toward further education or training. See PLA website for more information

www.hccs.edu/resources-for/current-students/prior-learning-assessment.

To be eligible to earn PLA credit, a student must be currently or previously enrolled at HCC and meet all Houston Community College admissions requirements. They should not have previously taken or attempted the course (by title that is the same as the PLA credit for which they are applying). PLA credit is only awarded when it applies to the HCC programs of study.
To commence the PLA process, students must first speak with their Pathway and Case Management Advisor. If it is determined that they are eligible for PLA, the student will begin the PLA process.
NOTE: A minimum of 25% of the credits for the HCC certificate or degree must be completed at HCC (in fulfillment of the residency requirement). Please note that credit earned by Advanced Placement (AP) exams do not count toward the six-hour requirement.
Credit by Examination
HCC awards credit for qualified scores on nationally standardized examinations for the following instruments: College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Examinations, the College Level Examination Program (CLEP), International Baccalaureate (IB) exams, and the Defense Activity for Non- Traditional Education Support (DANTES) subject exams, Sophia Learning exams (with ACE evaluation), Learning Counts exams (with ACE evaluation), Assessment and Learning in Knowledge Spaces (ALEKS with ACE evaluation) and Straighter Line (with ACE evaluation). Credit earned through these examinations will be recorded by the Registrar only after the student has completed six semester hours at HCC. Official test scores must be sent from the testing agency to the HCC Office of Admissions and Records. Contact the Testing Office for examination schedules and availability of the CLEP. Questions regarding credit received for the above national exams should be directed to the Advising Office.
More information on is available at www.hccs.edu/support-services/transfers/transferring-credits.
Students Transferring from HCC to Other Colleges/Universities
HCC recommends the following steps to students considering transferring to other colleges/universities:
Meet with a HCC advisor at a student’s community college campus to discuss his/her academic goals, plans, and questions. For instance, the student should consider completing an associate degree before transferring. Some universities give preferential treatment in admission decisions, if a student transfers after completing his/her associate degree. Research indicates that students who have completed the associate degree perform better after transfer than those who did not complete the associate degree.

www.hccs.edu/programs/catalog/academic-information

If a student needs to transfer to another institution before the completion of his/her HCC associate degree, the student may be able to “transfer back” to HCC his/her college credits from another institution in order to fulfill his/her associate degree requirements. In most cases, a student can “transfer back” up to 42 college-level semester hours of credit within three years of leaving HCC to complete his/her associate degree requirements. (Note: all graduation requirements must be fulfilled. See HCC catalog at
for more information.)

HCC also recommends that a student obtain a transfer plan from his/her HCC advisor. A transfer plan lists the university-required courses which can be taken at HCC toward a student’s university bachelor’s degree’s major. If a student is undecided about his/her choice of university or his/her choice of major, see a HCC career counselor for more help. To locate a counselor, go to www.hccs.edu/support-services/counseling/counselors-hcc.

www.hccs.edu/support-services/transfers

For more information, see the “If You are Transferring from HCC” section of
.
Transfer Dispute Resolution
If a student is informed by a Texas public college or university that it will not accept the transfer of any HCC academic course credit, the student may have a case for a transfer dispute which will ultimately be resolved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB). Students should be cautioned that workforce course credits may or may not be transferable, depending upon the program and articulation agreements between HCC and the college or university involved.
Institutions of higher education, however, may choose to accept additional credit hours by agreement. If the student wishes to transfer credit later to work on a bachelor’s degree, the student should consult with an HCC program or advisor. Rules and procedures for the resolution of transfer disputes regarding lower-division courses have been formulated by the THECB as follows:
If an institution of higher education refuses to accept course credit earned by a student at another institution of higher education, the receiving institution shall provide written notice to the student and to the sending institution that transfer of course credit has been denied, along with the reasons for denial. Students may dispute the denial of transfer credit by contacting a designated official at either the sending or receiving institution.
The two institutions and the student shall attempt to resolve the dispute in accordance with THECB rules and guidelines.
If the transfer dispute is not resolved to the satisfaction of the student or the sending institution within 45 days of the date the student received written notice of denial, the institution denying the course credit transfer shall notify the Commissioner of Higher Education of the unresolved dispute and the reasons for the continued denial of course credit transfer.

STUDENT RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Freedom of Inquiry and Expression
Educational institutions exist for the transmission of knowledge, the pursuit of truth, the development of students, and the general well-being of society. Free inquiry and free expression are indispensable to the attainment of these goals. Students and student organizations will be free to examine and discuss all questions of interest to them and to express opinions publicly and privately. They will be free to support causes by orderly means which do not disrupt the regular and normal operation of the institution and which comply with the regulations that relate to student activities and conduct. At the same time, it should be made clear to the educational and the larger community that in their public expressions or demonstrations, students or student organizations speak only for themselves. Recognized student organizations will be allowed to invite and to hear any person of their choosing when the purpose of such an invitation is consistent with the aims of the College’s policies. By law, the College does not advocate on behalf or particular political agendas or candidates. Hate messaging will not be tolerated and will result in disciplinary action.
Student Concerns
Houston Community College is committed to providing an educational climate that is conducive to the personal and professional development of each individual. In order to ensure that commitment, the College has developed procedures for students to address their concerns within the college community. A student who has an unresolved disagreement with a faculty or staff member, another student, or a student group, or is dissatisfied with the service they received, may initiate an attempt to address a concern without prejudicing his or her status with the College. It is the goal of HCC to assist all students in efficiently resolving their concerns.

If the Dean of Student Success/Designee finds that the student/organization engaged in the reported misconduct, disciplinary sanctions shall be imposed immediately or at a later date.
The Dean of Student Success/Designee can take other action as needed to resolve a conduct case.
The accused student/organization can accept the disposition, given an opportunity to review and sign a statement certifying understanding the nature of the charges, the right to a hearing or waive the same, the penalty imposed, and the waiver of the right to appeal.

The accused student/organization shall have the right to appeal the administrative disposition and request a hearing before a Student Conduct Discipline Committee should grounds for an appeal exist.
Student Conduct Discipline Committee Procedures
Board Policy: FLB(LOCAL)
When a student/organization does not accept the administrative disposition of a violation, the student/organization may appeal and request a hearing before a Student Conduct Discipline Committee if grounds for an appeal exists.
This request must be made in writing on or before the seventh (7th) working day following the administrative disposition. The student/organization may contact the Dean of Student Success/Designee for the appropriate form to submit. If the student/organization’s appeal is accepted by the College as warranted, the Dean of Student Success/Designee will schedule a hearing of the Student Conduct Discipline Committee. The Grounds for Appeal are listed elsewhere in this Code of Conduct, and will be applied to determine if the student/organization’s appeal is warranted.
At least seventy-two (72) hours prior to the hearing date, the student/organization concerned should furnish the Committee Chairperson with:
The name and address of each witness the student wants to appear and a description of all documentary and other evidence possessed by the College which the student wants produced.
A summary of the proposed testimony of each witness.
A request for a hearing separate from other accused students, if any, and the grounds for such request.
The name and contact information for the student’s representative, if the student chooses to bring a representative, and whether or not that representative is an attorney.
Failure to provide advanced notice can result in the Committee’s refusal to allow witnesses to participate in the hearing or can be grounds for a delay in the proceeding.
Discipline Committee members will be appointed by the College President, and will include three faculty or staff members and two students. The Discipline Committee will elect a Chairperson from the three faculty or staff members. The Committee Chairperson will preside over the hearing. All members of the Committee are eligible to vote in the hearing and the majority vote will dictate the outcome of the proceedings.
The Dean of Student Success/Designee will set the date, time and place for the hearing and notify the student/organization of the same. The Dean of Student Success/Designee will also request the appearance of witnesses and require the production of documentary and other evidence from the student within a specified timeframe.
The Dean of Student Success/Designee will represent the College before the Discipline Committee and present evidence to support any allegations of violations of Board Policies, Regulations, rules, or this Student Code of Conduct.
The hearing is informal and the Chairperson will provide reasonable opportunities for witnesses to be heard. The student is entitled to be represented by a representative, which may or may not be an attorney, at the student’s own expense if they so choose.

Documentary evidence can be admitted in the form of copies or extracts, in addition to incorporation by reference.
However, the Committee may exclude irrelevant, immaterial and unduly repetitious evidence.
The Committee will recognize as privileged, to the extent permitted by law, communications between a student and a member of the professional staff of the counseling center where such communications were made in the course of performance of official duties and when the matters

discussed were understood by the staff member and the student to be confidential. The Committee members can freely question witnesses.
The Committee will presume a student is innocent of the alleged violation until it is convinced by a preponderance of the evidence that the student violated a rule or policy.
Disciplinary Records
Board Policy: FLB(LOCAL)
A student/organization’s disciplinary record will include the following and will be maintained according to the applicable College document retention schedule:
A copy of the notice required; and/or
All documentary and other evidence offered or admitted as evidence in any disciplinary proceeding; and/or
The disposition outcomes to include the Student Conduct Discipline Committee’s decision, and any records pertaining to appeals or appellate decisions.
All disciplinary records and proceedings will be kept separate from the student’s academic record and will be treated as confidential to the extent provided by law. Some disciplinary consequences legally require certain types of disclosure, including notation on a student’s transcript. Final disposition of the record will reside with the Office of Student Records.
Grounds for Appeal
A student/organization may appeal a discipline decision on the following grounds:
The established student discipline procedures were not followed and as a result, the findings or disciplinary sanctions imposed by the Dean of Student Success/Designee were not correct.
The severity of the disciplinary sanctions imposed were not appropriate based on the nature of the policy violation or misconduct. For conduct cases in which the accused student/ organization has accepted responsibility, such appeals shall be limited to having the severity of the disciplinary sanctions reviewed.
There is new information that would have been pertinent to the outcome had the information been available to the Dean of Student Success/Designee before delivering a finding or imposing disciplinary sanctions. The student/organization must clearly describe the new information in the written request for an appeal and must include any available supporting documentation. Additionally, the student/organization must show that the new information and supporting documentation was not known at the time of the Student Conduct Administrative Conference or Student Conduct Discipline Committee hearing.
Appeal Procedures/Outcomes to the College President
The College President will automatically review every sanction of expulsion. A student is entitled to appeal from the Student Conduct Discipline Committee to the College president, if Grounds for Appeal are present. An appeal to the College President is informal, but a student’s written appeal will contain the information required by Grounds for Appeal. A student should file the appeal to the College President on or before the third (3rd) class day after the Student Conduct Discipline Committee announces its decision. The College President will receive written briefs and hear oral argument during their review, if a student chooses to file a written brief.

The College President in their review may take any action that the Student Conduct Discipline Committee is authorized to take (see Student Conduct Discipline Committee Outcomes regarding appeal outcomes).
The decision of the College President is final.
Interim Disciplinary Procedures
Board Policy: FLB(LOCAL)
In certain circumstances, the Dean of Student Success/Designee shall have the authority to immediately impose interim disciplinary measures against a student/organization prior to the completion of the student conduct proceedings.

If the student/organization poses an ongoing threat of disruption or interference with the normal operations of the College.
The Dean of Student Success/Designee also has the right to suspend a student pending investigation. In the event the temporarily suspended student is found not to have violated the rule or policy, the student will be given the opportunity to resume classes and make up the work at no cost to the student.
An interim suspension shall not replace the regular student discipline and penalties procedure. Upon issuance of an interim suspension, an administrative conference shall be scheduled between five (5) and fifteen (15) College business days of the student/organization receiving notification from the College.

It also requires sex offenders already required to register in a State to provide notice, as required under State law, of each institution of higher education in that State at which the person is employed, carries on a vocation, volunteers services, or is a student.
Ten (10) days before enrolling in class, but never later than the seventh day after the date on which the person begins to attend school, a person required to register as a sex offender under Texas Code of Criminal Procedure 62.152 or any other provision of Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Chapter 62, who is a student at a public institution of higher education, including a college district, shall report that fact to the authority for campus security for the institution, the Houston Community College Police Department (HCCPD). Following registration with HCCPD, information regarding the registrant shall be forwarded to the Registered Sex Offender Review Committee for processing. Prior to the final decision of the Committee, the registrant’s enrollment and course selection are subject to review and are not final. Registrants will be identified by risk level and processed accordingly.
Registrants are encouraged to report as soon as possible in order to avoid delays in enrollment.
Information regarding sexual offenders is available through the Texas Department of Public Safety’s Sex Offender Registry and at hccs.edu/departments/police/crime-statistics--information/sex- offender-information. The procedures of the Registered Sex Offender Review Committee are described in FL (Regulation) available at hccs.edu/about-hcc/policies/hcc-board-policy-manual- section-f.

Field of Study Curricula

Field of Study Curricula
A Field of Study (FOS) is a selection of lower-division courses that are guaranteed by state law to transfer and apply to a degree program. If a student takes all the courses in a FOS and then transfers to another Texas public institution of higher education, the FOS is guaranteed to transfer as a block and be applied to the appropriate major. If a student has completed the FOS, the Texas common core curriculum, and any university or college courses required of all students regardless of major, then the student is finished with all the lower-division courses for the degree program at any Texas public institution. If a student transfers with an incomplete FOS, then each completed FOS course is guaranteed to transfer and apply to the degree program, although the institution may require additional lower-division courses.
The Field of Study curricula that have been approved are incorporated into the associate degree plans for: Biology, Business, Communications, Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Engineering, English, History, Mathematics, Interdisciplinary Studies, Music, Government, and Psychology. FOS designations are also available for Economics and Sociology, an option in Multidisciplinary Studies
Field of Study Curricula approved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board are incorporated into maps. Houston Guided Pathways (GPS) maps include courses that apply to lower- level requirements in specified degrees across Houston GPS institutions without resulting in excess credit upon transfer. Courses are in the Lower-Division Academic Course Guide Manual (ACGM) and course numbers provided are those in the Texas Common Course Numbering System.
