A degree or certificate program requires different types of courses. There are four terms that describe
course types: "General Education," "Technical," "Specialty," and "Locally Determined." Most degrees
or certificates require some courses of each type. Other terms you'll see are:
Elective — The term "elective" means you can choose the class you want from those offered on your
campus. These are marked with a "*".
Capstone Course — This type of course includes a component that assesses certain skills that will be
expected of you as a graduate in the workforce. The assessment typically involves a written assignment.
These are marked with a " A ".
Locally Determined — This means your campus decides which classes you must take to complete the
degree. In cases where you see courses marked with the symbol "**" i it means that one of two courses
is required and your campus decides which. In other cases, your campus determines which courses are
required to fulfill the degree, based primarily on needs of local business and industry. Your academic
advisor can tell you which classes are required.

College Profile
In just over 35 years, Ivy Tech State College — more popularly known as Ivy Tech — has
grown from a mere idea to a thriving post-secondary institution.
In 1963, the Indiana General Assembly established Indiana Vocational Technical College as
Indiana's first statewide vocational technical college and appropriated $50,000 for its
development. Following the appointment of a state board of trustees, a president was named
and the first training program was established in 1965. The General Assembly later authorized
Ivy Tech's present structure of 14 regions to provide accessible technical educational opportunities
to all Indiana citizens. Between 1966 and 1969, 13 of the 14 regions were chartered and their
boards of trustees appointed. (Region 14 was approved in 2000.) Later, Ivy Tech was given
authority to grant diplomas and certificates, including one-year technical certificates and two-
year associate degrees, and to offer general education courses needed for its technical education
programs.
Ivy Tech's growth in its relatively short history has been impressive. Enrollment reached 7 1 ,000
in 1999-00. The College had only 3,233 students in the fall of 1968. Within the statewide Ivy
Tech system, more than 2,600 full- and part-time faculty members teach in program areas
offered in six instructional divisions: Business, Health Sciences, Public Services, Technology,
Visual Technologies, and General Education and Support Services.
The State Board of Trustees appointed Gerald I. Lamkin as the sixth president of Indiana
Vocational Technical College in December 1982. In 1995, the Indiana General Assembly changed
the name of the College to Ivy Tech State College.
In 1998, the Indiana General Assembly created the Community College of Indiana (CCI). The
Community College of Indiana is a partnership between Ivy Tech State College and Vincennes
University (VU) that will broaden the array of course and program offerings at Ivy Tech campuses,
enabling students to complete two-year liberal arts degree programs. Initial pilot sites for the
2000-2001 academic year include campuses in Evansville, Gary, Lafayette, and Indianapolis.
Expansion of the Community College of Indiana to all Ivy Tech locations will occur over the
next six years.

ENTERING THE COLLEGE
Admissions Non-Degree Objective
Ivy Tech offers courses in many special career areas. Admission as a non-degree student can be
achieved simply by filing a completed registration form in the Office of Student Affairs. High
school students (age sixteen or greater) may take Ivy Tech courses with the written approval of
the appropriate high school official. Non-degree students enrolling in general education courses
must take the ASSET or COMPASS assessment for course placement. Other non-degree students
may elect to take the assessment. Non-degree students are not eligible to receive financial aid.
Admissions Degree Objective
Ivy Tech is an open admissions college, accessible to all Indiana citizens past high school age.
Some degree-granting programs have limited availability and have additional requirements
prior to acceptance to those programs.
For admission as a student to one of Ivy Techs programs leading to an associate degree or
technical certificate, the standard requirements are a high school diploma or General Education
Development (GED) certificate and an application for admission. Prospective students who
are college graduates with an associate degree or higher from a regionally accredited institution
may submit their college transcript in lieu of the high school diploma. Prospective students
who have some college credit may submit their college transcript if the college transcript shows
the high school graduation date. The Office of Student Affairs will assist the student on request
in obtaining a high school or college transcript or GED scores.
To ensure student success, all degree-seeking students must participate in the ASSET/COMPASS
assessment. The purposes of this assessment are to measure the student's achievement in
mathematics, reading, writing, and to assist the student in the selection of appropriate courses.
If the assessment reveals skill deficiencies, the student will be advised to complete appropriate
developmental courses. Students may be eligible for financial aid during this period.
When the assessment indicates that the student will be better served in a different setting, that
individual may be referred to an appropriate community resource offering the needed assistance.
The applicant may enter the admissions process at a later date, following completion of skills upgrading.
Granting of waivers from the ASSET/COMPASS assessment is the responsibility of the academic
officer or designee. Waivers will be granted to students who meet one or more of the following
conditions:
• Possess an associate degree or higher from a regionally accredited college. The number of
years since an associate or higher degree was earned is not relevant.
• Have completed comparable basic skills or general education courses in writing or math
with a grade of "C" or better from a regionally accredited college. For purpose of waiving the
reading portion, the prospective student must have completed a basic skills reading course
or college-level general education course.
• Have comparable assessment scores (earned within the last two years) from a regionally
accredited institution that are deemed acceptable by an Ivy Tech campus for appropriate
course placement.
The College reserves the right to guide the enrollment of students in particular programs or
courses on the basis of past academic records, academic counseling and assessment.
Students seeking admission to certain health occupation programs may be requested to take
part in specific pre-enrollment assessments and/or interviews to fulfill college or external agency
requirements. Prerequisites may be required before enrolling in certain programs.
Readmission
Should a course of study at the College be interrupted more than two years, students must
request readmission at a later date. This may be accomplished by contacting the Admissions
Office. Information on eligibility for financial aid will be available to returning students.
Limited Admissions Enrollment
Occasionally, the number of students admitted and enrolled in programs and/or courses may
be limited by College resources or facilities — including available lab equipment and related
support, or the number of available clinical work stations. The Office of Student Affairs should
be contacted regarding programs which have limited access.
Admission Procedures and Support Documents — Degree Objective
All prospective students pursuing an Associate of Science, an Associate of Applied Science,
Associate of Arts or a Technical Certificate are required to:
1 . submit an Application for Admission
2. provide one of the following:
A. For high school graduates:
(1) if they are high school graduates from public schools, home schools, private schools or
high school correspondence schools, provide an official high school transcript consisting
of courses and grades received, graduation date, and official signature and/or seal. If the
prospective student cannot provide an official transcript because the high school no longer
exists and/or records are no longer available, the prospective student must provide written
documentation to that effect.
An Indiana certificate of completion is not the same as a high school diploma. If they only
have a certificate of completion, they are considered non high school graduates for purposes
of admissions, or
(2) if they possess an associate degree or higher, they may provide an official college transcript
from a regionally accredited college indicating date of college graduation, or
(3) if they are less than associate degree college graduates or college transfers, they may
provide an official college transcript from a regionally accredited college indicating date of
high school graduation (transcripts from non-accredited colleges are unacceptable).
B. For non high school graduates:
(1) they may submit on official GED report of passing test scores from the American Council
on Education (ACE). High school equivalency exams provided by other organizations are
not acceptable, or
(2) they may demonstrate the Ability to Benefit from postsecondary education by obtaining
a passing grade on a test recognized for this purpose by the U. S. Department of Education.
Students admitted to Ivy Tech under Ability to Benefit guidelines must provide an official
GED report of passing test scores or a high school diploma within one calendar year of
their initial date of enrollment. Students admitted under this provision who do not meet
these requirements will be switched to courses-only status after a calendar year and are no
longer eligible for federal, state, or institutional financial aid. A student cannot graduate
from Ivy Tech (with the technical certificate or associate degree) without proof of high
school graduation or passing GED scores.
Students who do not meet Bl or B2 should be referred to the appropriate College or community
services.
3. submit financial aid forms (if applicable)
4. comply with international student requirements (if applicable)
5. submit other necessary specific data (if applicable)
6. participate in the academic assessment.
Applicants desiring admission to some programs may be required to meet special enrollment
requirements including, but not limited to, pre-enrollment assessment testing, satisfactory high
school grades, evidence of potential for success in the field, and/or an enrollment interview.
Once a program selection is made, certain prerequisites, including, but not limited to, health
examinations, may have to be met prior to enrollment in the particular program or course.
Advanced Standing
Students may be allowed to enter programs with advanced standing. Prior education and
formal training may be considered for advanced placement. Credit may be awarded through
transfer of credit from other postsecondary institutions, challenge examinations, the College
Level Examination Program (CLEP), Advanced Placement (AP) tests, DANTES, or military
experience. A score equivalent to a grade of "C" or higher on the CLEP or DANTES tests is
required and a minimum score of 3 is required on AP tests.
Secondary Initiatives
Ivy Tech State College has implemented a secondary/postsecondary 2+2+2 education partnership
with Indiana State University and high schools across Indiana. The partnership is designed to
attract high school students into a technical education pathway that will lead to an associate
degree, a baccalaureate degree, and even a graduate degree. The initiative has as a goal to
change the way that younger Hoosiers, their parents, and educators view education and careers
in technical fields.
Articulation pathways have been established to link secondary programs in areas such as
electronics, business administration, automotive technology, and design technology with the
associate-baccalaureate articulations in place between Ivy Tech and ISU. High school students
may formally enter the 2+2+2 program in their junior year. The 2+2+2 programs will provide
students with options to learn skills to go directly to the workplace, or other opportunities to
complete a degree program in a timely manner.
Ivy Tech State Colleges Pathway to College program is a collaborative college preparatory project
for secondary students in technical programs. Pathway to College coordinators offer students
opportunities for remedial and enrichment services, dynamic educational and career planning,
and linkages to baccalaureate programs in technical fields. The Pathway to College program
goals address Indiana students' needs for better success in higher education. Each of the goals
is designed to help students focus direct attention on the importance of schooling as their
highest priority. Interested parties should contact the local Ivy Tech campus.
Transferring to the College
The College encourages students who previously attended other accredited colleges and
universities or adult education programs to forward transcripts to Ivy Tech by the midpoint of
the first semester of enrollment or re-enrollment for consideration for transfer of credit and/or
advanced placement. Students are responsible for providing pertinent course descriptions
and/or copies of the college catalog(s) if further documentation is needed to facilitate the review.
The College will be glad to assist individuals with evaluation of prior educational experiences.
The College reserves the right to refuse admission to those students who were dismissed for
disciplinary reasons from other colleges or universities.
International Students
International students must meet College admission standards and certain other requirements.
International students should apply for admission to Ivy Tech at least 90 days prior to the
beginning of the term they wish to attend. International students must provide high school
transcripts, which are subject to an equivalency evaluation. They must also demonstrate English
language proficiency. The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) with a minimum
score of 550 for the written exam or 213 for the computerized version is required.
International students must provide proof of adequate financial support for College fees and
living expenses for each year while attending Ivy Tech. International students should submit a
letter from an appropriate sponsor, government official or bank official stating that sufficient
funds are available to cover the cost of the student's education and that these funds will be
available to the student while attending college in the United States. International students
must purchase the College's insurance coverage for medical, accident and repatriation expenses.
Student Orientation
All new degree students are encouraged to participate in a student success seminar/orientation
program prior to or during the first week of classes. Orientation is designed to assist students in
making the transition to a college environment. Topics include registration procedures, career
and employment services, financial aid, business office services, instructional programs, tutoring
services, college activities, and policies and procedures.
Test-Out Procedures
Test-out policies vary from program to program. Students wishing to test out of a course should
contact the program advisor. A fee of $10 per credit hour (subject to change by the State Board
of Trustees) may be charged for the tests.
The general guidelines for test-out are:
1. Test-out examinations should be taken before registering for the course for which the test-
out is attempted.
2. Test-out examinations are normally completed at one sitting (unless the test is offered in two
parts, e.g., lab and written exams).
3. Test-out credits are not included in credit computations for financial aid programs or student
grade point averages.
REGISTRATION
Registering for Courses
The registration process includes financial aid and program advising, selection of courses and
payment of fees. Newly admitted students will be notified when to register for their first classes.
Specific days are set aside for registration before the beginning of each semester. Students
should seek assistance in course selection from faculty advisors or advisors in the Office of
Student Affairs before registering for classes. The Office of Student Affairs can supply information
concerning registration.
Note: Students are registered when fees have been paid or payment arrangements have been
made.
Open/Late Registration
Open registration is held before the beginning of the term. Registration after the first day of
classes each term is considered late. Students may register after the first week of classes with
the permission of the instructor. However, a late registration fee may be assessed any time after
the first day of classes. For further information contact the Office of Student Affairs.
Course Drop and Add
A student may drop or add a course in the first week of the regular semester. Students may be
eligible for a full or partial refund of the assessed fees for courses dropped in the first four
weeks of the semester. Courses are not officially dropped until the necessary forms have been
completed and returned to the Office of Student Affairs. After the first week of the semester
students must receive the permission of the instructor to register for an added course.
Student Withdrawal
From the beginning of the second week to the end of the week marking the completion of 75
percent of the course, a student may withdraw from a course by filing a change of enrollment
form at the Registrars Office. (Students may be eligible for a full or partial refund of fees.)
Records of students withdrawing from courses indicate a "W" status rather than a grade when
the withdrawal process is completed. Withdrawal is complete when the necessary forms have
been submitted to the Office of the Registrar. A student who ceases to attend class after the last
day to withdraw will receive a grade commensurate with course requirements.
Note: Withdrawing from class may affect or cancel financial assistance. Further information is
available from the Financial Aid Office.
COLLEGE FEES
The College seeks to provide quality education at the lowest possible cost. General fees are
based on the number of credit hours for which the student has registered. Out-of-state students
pay an additional fee per credit hour. For a current schedule of fees and further information,
contact the Office of Student Affairs. Students or their families maybe eligible for federal tuition
tax credits in accordance with the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997.
Additional Expenses
The following additional expenses may apply, depending upon the program of study:
Books: All students are expected to purchase the textbooks for their respective programs. The
cost of books varies by class.
Tools: The College furnishes major equipment items for instruction. However, in many programs
or courses, students must furnish additional hand tools and equipment.
Uniforms and other special equipment: Several programs require students to furnish uniforms
and special safety clothing.
Charges for consumable instructional materials: In some courses an additional charge for
instructional materials may be required.
Payment of Fees
All enrolled students must make arrangements at the time of registration to pay all applicable
fees. A student is officially registered and allowed to attend classes when all fees have been
satisfied or arrangements for payment have been made.
Refund Policy
Students choosing to drop a course or courses must notify the College in writing using the
drop-and-add or withdrawal form. Students choosing to withdraw from all courses may begin
the withdrawal process in writing or by contacting the office responsible for accepting official
oral notification. The fee refund for voluntary withdrawal from a class, when applicable, will
be processed only after the student files a drop-and-add or withdrawal form with the Registrars
Office.
The College will refund student fees, with the exception of the late registration fee, on the
following schedule for a regular semester:
From registration to end of first week of semester . . .100% refund
To end of second week of semester 75% refund
To end of third week of semester 50% refund
To end of fourth week of semester 25% refund
After fourth week of semester No refund
This schedule is based upon a 16-week semester calendar. Classes based on different calendars
will have different refund schedules. The effective date for calculating the fee refund is the date
of written notification on the drop-and-add form. Certain other fees may be refundable. Further
details are available from the Office of Student Affairs. All refunds will be issued by check and
mailed to the address shown on the student's registration form. Cancellation of credit courses
by the College will result in a total refund of fees collected for those courses.
Federal regulations mandate the treatment of refunds for financial aid recipients. Financial aid
funds must be returned to the government when College charges were paid by financial aid
and a refund is given a student who fully withdraws from the College. Financial aid recipients
may request more detailed information from the Financial Aid Office.
FINANCIAL AID
Ivy Tech participates in various types of federal and state financial aid programs that provide
assistance to many students. Ivy Tech also provides financial assistance to students from its
own resources. Students are encouraged to carefully explore all financial aid options at their
campus.
Students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be considered
for any form of financial aid. Financial aid is available for both full- and part-time students
regardless of age, race or sex. To qualify for financial aid all applicable requirements must be

Not owe a refund to a federal grant or loan program.
Students who have completed the FAFSA and submitted all required documentation will receive
an award letter detailing the financial aid programs offered. Any additional documentation
required for an award or instructions for receiving payment will be mailed to the student.
Procedures for obtaining federal loans vary by campus. Your campus financial aid office will
instruct you on how to apply for federal Stafford loans. Detailed information on all financial
aid programs is available at your campus financial aid office.
The following forms of financial aid are available to Ivy Tech students:
Hoosier Scholarship Program
The State Student Assistance Commission of Indiana may award from one to three scholarships

of $500 for one academic year.
Higher Education Award Program (HEA)
Residents of Indiana may apply for Higher Education Awards (formerly called State Grants).
Applicants must file the FAFSA by March 1 preceding their enrollment for the following fall
semester. Awards are based on demonstrated financial need. Recipients of HEA awards must

Office of Student Affairs for additional information regarding the 2 1 SI Century Scholars Program.
Federal Pell Grants
The largest financial aid program at Ivy Tech is the Federal Pell Grant program. This program
provides grant funds for tuition and books for many Ivy Tech students. Since the grant is based
on the student's need, enrollment status, cost of education at Ivy Tech and current level of
federal funding, the grant amount varies from semester to semester and student to student.
Indiana National Guard Supplemental Grant

financially needy students to assist in the payment of educational costs. Awards vary each year.
Ivy Tech Grant Programs
Ivy Tech provides an extensive grant program. Each campus has a fee remission grant fund for
students with special needs arising from unusual circumstances. Fee remissions are available
under three separate programs:
• Ivy Tech Grant — Awarded on basis of need
• Ivy Tech Scholarship — Awarded on basis of merit
• Part-Time Scholars Opportunity Grant — Awarded on basis of need to part-time students
EMPLOYMENT AND LOANS
Federal Work Study Program
The Federal Work Study Program provides part-time employment to students who need financial
assistance. Applicants must file the FAFSA and must be enrolled for at least six credit hours.
Job assignments may be within the College or in public non-profit agencies in the community.
The Financial Aid Office directs job placements after taking into consideration the amount of
students' financial need, class schedule, and family or personal obligations. The starting hourly
rate will be at least the federal minimum wage. Employment may consist of, but is not limited
to, secretarial and clerical office work, maintenance or custodial work, duties in the library or
work as lab assistants. Where possible, students are offered work study assignments in areas
related to their career objectives.
State Work Study Program
Ivy Tech participates with the State Student Assistance Commission of Indiana in a state-funded
Summer Work Study Program for financial-aid-eligible students who are residents of Indiana
and plan to be enrolled full-time for the Fall semester. The purpose of this program is to help
students who have received state-funded grants and scholarships to meet their remaining need.
Federal Stafford Loans
Low interest, federal Stafford Loans are available to eligible students who attend classes at least
half-time (six credit hours). Funding for these loans is provided by lending institutions but the
application process is handled completely by the Financial Aid Office. The interest rate on
Stafford loans varies from year to year and students are notified of the applicable rate at time of
application. Need-based, subsidized Stafford loans are interest-free during in-school and grace
periods. Non-need based, unsubsidized Stafford loans require the student to pay the interest
while in school or request a deferment of interest until after graduation.
Repayment of Stafford loans begins six months after graduation, or when the students class
load falls below six credit hours per semester. Each student borrower is required to attend
entrance and exit loan counseling sessions. These counseling sessions are held in the financial
aid office. Students are notified of the days and times these sessions are available. Loan
applications will not be processed if the student has not attended the required sessions.
Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS)
The PLUS program assists parents in financing the education of their dependent children when
all other types of financial assistance have been denied or exhausted. Repayment begins within
30 to 60 days after the loan is made. The federal government does not subsidize interest on
these loans.
Selected Reserve Educational Assistance Program
Members of the U.S. Army Reserve, Naval Reserve, Air Force Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve,
Army National Guard or Air National Guard may be eligible for benefits under Chapter 106 of
the VA Regulations. Eligible students should contact the Office of Financial Aid for additional
information and applications.
Child of Disabled Veteran (CDV) Benefits
Children of deceased or disabled veterans may be eligible for veterans' benefits.
Indiana residents who are children of deceased or disabled veterans or of veterans awarded the
Purple Heart may be eligible for a fee waiver at Ivy Tech if the parent's death, disability or
Purple Heart award occurred as a result of military service during wartime. Inquiry concerning
this benefit may be made at the Financial Aid Office.
Police and Fire Fighters Orphans and Spouses Benefits
Children and spouses of deceased, regularly paid law enforcement officers and fire fighters are
eligible for a fee waiver if the death occurred in the line of duty. Children and spouses of
volunteer firefighters and city or county reserve police officers who died in the line of duty also
are eligible for a fee waiver. The fee waiver is granted only to full-time students under the age
of 23. Certification from the appropriate agency must be presented to the College in order to
obtain the fee waiver.
Vocational Rehabilitation
Students with disabilities that maybe considered barriers to employment may qualify for benefits
through the Family Social Services Administration. The local office of the Division of Disability,
Aging and Rehabilitative Services establishes the conditions of eligibility and awards assistance
based on individual need. The division expects students to apply for the Pell Grant and other
forms of financial aid through the school. However, if these resources are not sufficient to meet
their needs the division may provide additional funding. Further information is available from
the local office of the Division of Disability, Aging and Rehabilitative Services.
Workforce Investment Act
Assistance in obtaining vocational training may be available through the Workforce Investment
Act. Contact the local Workforce/Employment and Training Center concerning eligibility
requirements.
Trade Readjustment Act (TRA)
The Trade Readjustment Act provides full tuition and fees, books and supplies to eligible students.
Students should check with their local Department of Employment and Training Office to
determine eligibility.
Employer-Funded Education
Many employers pay for full or partial expenses related to courses taken at Ivy Tech when the
training offered relates to the employee's job responsibilities. Interested students should contact
their employers to determine if such arrangements can be made.
Union Training Funds
Many unions have training funds available for members. Interested students should contact
their unions regarding availability of training funds for use at Ivy Tech.
Veterans' Benefits
Students who served in the armed forces may be eligible for veterans' benefits. The Veterans
Administration and, in many instances, the Department of Defense, determines eligibility. The
amount of monthly educational allowance will depend on enrollment status and individual
entitlement of each veteran.
Ivy Tech is obligated by law to evaluate past military and civilian training and education and
award credit where appropriate. To accomplish this evaluation, veterans are obligated to provide
the College with the necessary documentation of prior training and education. The evaluation
must be completed within the time frame dictated by law and should be accomplished as soon
as possible. Failure of the veteran to cooperate could result in VA benefits being terminated,
retroactive to the first day benefits were received. The award of credit for previous training may
allow the College to shorten the training program proportionately. The veteran should meet
with the campus Veteran Affairs Coordinator at the earliest possible date. The veteran is
responsible for attending classes and making reasonable progress toward an educational objective.
APPLICATION PROCEDURES FOR
FINANCIAL AID
Application forms are available in the Financial Aid Office at all Ivy Tech campuses. Because
application procedures, deadlines, eligibility regulations and refund policies vary with different
types of student aid programs, interested students are encouraged to contact the Financial Aid
Office at their earliest opportunity Students should allow six to eight weeks for processing
most financial aid applications. Students are encouraged to apply for assistance at any time. In
general the fall semester marks the beginning of the financial aid award year.
Financial Aid Appeals
The following steps are recommended to students who feel they have received unfair treatment
in the financial aid process:
1 . Schedule a personal conference with the Director of Financial Aid to discuss and resolve
the issue.
2. If Step 1 is unsatisfactory, schedule a consultation with the Dean of Student Affairs.
3. If Step 2 is unsatisfactory, schedule a conference with the Student Status Committee. This
committee will make a recommendation to the Chief Administrative Officer to resolve the
issue.
STUDENT RECORDS
Ivy Tech maintains an educational record for each student who is or has been enrolled at Ivy
Tech. In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, as amended,
the following student rights are covered by the act and afforded to all students at Ivy Tech:
1 . The right to inspect and review information contained in the students educational records.
2. The nght to challenge the contents of the student's educational records.
3. The right to a hearing if the outcome of the challenge is unsatisfactory.
4. The right to submit an explanatory statement for inclusion in the educational record if the
outcome of the hearing is unsatisfactory.
5. The right to prevent disclosure, with certain exceptions, of personally identifiable
information.
6. The right to secure a copy of the institutional policy.
7. The right to file complaints with the Department of Education concerning alleged failures
by Ivy Tech to comply with the provisions of the act. 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 20202-4605
Each of these rights, with any limitations or exceptions, is explained in the Student Affairs
Policy and Procedures Manual, a copy of which may be obtained in the Office of Student Affairs
or the library.
At the Colleges discretion directory information may be provided in accordance with the
provisions of the act without the written consent of the student unless the student requests in
writing that such information not be disclosed (see below). The items listed below are designated
as directory information and may be released for any purpose at the discretion of Ivy Tech
unless a request for non-disclosure is on file.
1. Name, address, telephone number, dates of attendance.
2. Previous institution(s) attended, major field of study, awards, honors, degree conferred.
3. Past and present participation in officially recognized activities, date and place of birth.
Students may request the withholding of directory information by notifying the Registrars
Office in writing, specifying the categories to be withheld, within ten (10) calendar days from
the first scheduled day of the term. Ivy Tech will honor the request for one term only. Therefore
the student must file the request on a term basis. The student should carefully consider the
consequences of any decision to withhold any category of directory information. Regardless of
the effect upon the student Ivy Tech assumes no liability for honoring a students request that
such information be withheld. Failure on the part of a student to request the withholding of
specific categories of directory information indicates the students approval of disclosure.
In addition, student records are held in security by the College. Transcripts on file with the
College from high schools and other institutions of higher education cannot be released by Ivy
Tech. A student needing a transcript from high school or another college should request it
directly from that institution. The Registrar's Office will assist students wishing to see and
review their academic records and student files. Any questions concerning the students rights
and responsibilities under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act should be referred to
the Office of the Registrar.
Students enrolled in Vincennes academic programs as part of the Community College of Indiana
will have records on file at Vincennes University as well. Please contact the Vincennes University
Registrar at 812-888-4220 for further information.
Dependency Provision
Ivy Tech reserves the right, as allowed under the Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act of
1974, to disclose educational records or components thereof without written consent to parents
of dependent students as defined according to the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, Section 154
(as amended). A certified copy of the parent's most recent federal income tax form establishing
the student's dependency status shall be required before any educational records or components
thereof will be released to the parent of any student.
ACADEMIC GRADING
Grades
The academic grading system has both grades and status codes, both of which are explained in
greater detail later in this section. Grades reflect the quality of performance and level of
competency achieved by students who complete a course. Formal grades are assigned at the
end of each enrollment period. Instructors determine and assign grades and status based on
objective appraisal and evaluation of the student's performance. Semester grade reports are
sent to each student. The semester grade report is not sent to students who still owe fees.
In all courses the quality of the students work determines the grade earned. For some courses
quantity of work, speed of work, or both also are considered in determining the grade. Class
participation also may be considered by instructors in awarding grades. In certain instances a
status code appears on the student's record in place of a grade. Status represents a condition to
which no letter grade can be assigned.
The quality of student performance or competency level, as determined by the instructor at the
completion of a course, is indicated by a letter grade of A, B, C, D or F Ivy Tech does not use
pluses and minuses as a part of its grading system. Each designation has a numerical value per
credit hour, referred to as "quality points." The meaning and quality point value per credit
hour of each letter grade are shown in the table below:
Status

Status Codes
Status codes describe the state or condition of a course on the students record for which a
grade has not been awarded. Status code indications carry no quality points. The types of
status codes and the symbols used to indicate them are shown below.
Status
I Incomplete
AU . . . . Audit
S Satisfactory
U Unsatisfactory
V Verified Competency
NW . . . No-Show Withdrawal
W Withdrawal
These status codes are used for the following reasons:
I — Incomplete
"I" designations are received by students who have actively pursued a course and are doing
passing work at the end of the course but who have not completed the final examination and/
or other specific course assignments.
To remove an "I" designation, a student must meet with the instructor and make arrangements
to complete course requirements in a specified period not to exceed 30 days beyond the start of
the following term. The instructor must submit the grade within 31 calendar days of the
beginning of the following term in which the student received the "I" designation.
AU— Audit
"AU" status indicates enrollment in a course for which no grade or credit is awarded. The fees
for audited courses are the same as those for courses taken for credit. Audit status must be
declared no later than the end of the first week of classes with approval of the instructor or
program chairperson.
NW — No-Show Withdrawal
Instructors authorize the registrar to withdraw a student from any course for which the student
did not report for the first two weeks of the semester and failed to notify the instructor of intent
to continue. This administrative action is reflected on the official class list. A petition for a
refund with documentation for extenuating circumstances can be filed with the Business Office.
Students can petition to be reinstated by receiving the approval of the instructor and completing
the drop/add process.
W — Withdrawal
A "W" status code will be used for student and academic withdrawals. Student withdrawal (W)
is a terminal status referring to voluntary student withdrawal beginning at the start of the third
week of the course up to the end of the week marking the completion of 75 percent of the
course. To be considered officially withdrawn from a course the student must file a withdrawal
form with the Office of the Registrar. After 75 percent of the term has elapsed a student may
withdraw (with the same result as indicated above) only if documented extenuating circumstances
are submitted to and approved by the Chief Academic Officer or his/her designee.
S — Satisfactory
The "S" indicates satisfactory completion of course work in situations where either a status of
satisfactory or unsatisfactory (pass/fail) has been arranged by prior agreement. Requests for
this type of grading must be declared at time of registration.
U — Unsatisfactory
The "U" indicates unsatisfactory completion of course work in situations where either a status
of satisfactory or unsatisfactory (pass/fail) has been arranged by prior agreement. Requests for
this type of grading must be declared at time of registration. The "U" differs from an "F" in that
quality points are not computed.
V — Verified Competency
The "V" indicates satisfactory completion of course work in situations such as test-out, credit
for experience or training, College Level Examination Program (CLEP), etc. Credit gained
through this method may be used to satisfy degree requirements. This status is approved by
the Chief Academic Officer upon recommendation of a faculty advisor following completion of
necessary verification and documentation of competency.
Credit Hours
Credit is described in semester hours (the number of credits taken per semester). The number
of credits is determined by the demands of the course, course work and by the number of
contact hours - the hours actually spent in the classroom or laboratory.
Credit Hours/Load
A credit hour represents one hour of lecture, two hours of laboratory or three hours of clinical
instruction per week for the semester. A three-credit-hour lecture course, for example, meets
48 hours during the semester (3 hours/week x 16 weeks). An average full-time semester class
load in most Ivy Tech programs consists of 12-15 credit hours. A class load of more than 17
credit hours requires approval of the Chief Academic Officer or a designee.
Enrollment Status
Enrollment status is determined by registered total semester credits:
Full-time student 12 or more credits per semester
3/4 time 9-11 credits per semester
1/2 time 6-8 credits per semester
Less than 1/2 time 1-5 credits per semester
A first-year student, by definition, is one who has completed 30 or fewer semester credit hours.
A second-year student is one who has completed 3 1 or more semester credit hours.
Quality Points
Quality points are numerical values indicating the quality of student performance in credit
courses: A=4; B=3; C=2; D=l; F=0. The quality points earned for a course equal the quality
point value times the number of credits. A student who earns an "A" in a four-credit course
earns 16 quality points: the quality point value (4) x the number of credits (4) = the total
quality pomts (16).
Grade Point Averages
The grade point average (GPA) is a numerical indication of the student's performance in all
courses in which quality points can be earned. The GPA is calculated by dividing the number
of quality points earned by the number of credits earned. The term and cumulative GPA,
calculated to three decimal places, will appear on each grade report.
Under extenuating circumstances a student may petition the Chief Academic Officer to exclude
hours of coursework from the cumulative GPA calculation. Courses excluded from the cumulative
GPA calculation as a result of a petition will not be counted as earned and cannot be used to
satisfy program requirements for degree-declared students. Contact the Office of Student Affairs
for additional information.
Improving a Grade
Dean's List
Students, with the approval of faculty advisors, may attempt to improve D or F grades by
repeating courses (allowable once in most programs). Financial aid recipients, however, should
review their situations carefully since payment for repeated courses can be disallowed. Permanent
student records contain complete files on all activity. The students grade point average will
reflect the highest grade earned.
The Dean's List, prepared and published each term, gives recognition to degree-seeking students
who achieve a minimum 3.50 grade point average in non-basic skills courses with no Ds or Fs
while earning six or more Ivy Tech credits during the semester and have earned at least a total
of 12 credits during their course of study.
Grade Reports
Attendance
Final grades are mailed to the address on the registration form. Grade reports are not sent if
there are outstanding financial obligations to the College.
Regular attendance is expected at scheduled class meetings or other activities assigned as part
of a course of instruction. Attendance records are kept by instructors. When personal
circumstances make it impossible to attend scheduled classes and activities the College expects
students to confer with instructors in advance. Instructors can offer students the option of
making up the material missed.
Absences may be considered by instructors in awarding grades and considering involuntary
withdrawal. Students who must interrupt their Ivy Tech education to fulfill Reserve and National
Guard annual tour requirements should present official military orders to their instructors prior
to departure for duty. Students are not excused from completion of the course work and should
make arrangements with their instructors to complete all work.
STANDARDS OF PROGRESS
Students who have declared a certificate or degree objective and who have 15 or more cumulative
credit hours attempted must maintain a 2.00 minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA)
to remain in satisfactory academic standing. Students receiving financial aid must demonstrate
satisfactory progress toward completion of a program within a specified time frame based on
their enrollment status. Students also must successfully complete the minimum number of
credit hours required for that status each semester. All students are expected to maintain a
cumulative 2.00 GPA to be eligible for graduation. Questions about standards of progress and
academic standing should be addressed to the Office of Student Affairs.
Special Problems
The Office of Student Affairs is available to help with special problems, exceptional circumstances,
and filing grievances (see Student Grievances). Special problems, exceptional circumstances,
and grievances are ultimately the responsibility of the Chief Administrative Officer of the region,
designated staff and committees.
ASSESSMENT
It is the mission of Ivy Tech State College to enable individuals to develop to their fullest
potential and to support the economic development of Indiana. To this end an assessment
program is conducted college -wide to measure student progress toward educational goals, to
determine academic progress, to improve teaching and learning and to evaluate institutional
effectiveness. Student assessment is part of the College's educational program. What Ivy Tech
discovers through the assessment program is used in making decisions about everything the
College does from curriculum planning to student activities to support services. From the time
students apply to the College until the time they leave, students are expected to participate in
a series of tests, surveys, and evaluative activities intended to:
• Assess students' academic history and academic skills for accurate advisement and course
placement at entry;
• Obtain information on students' satisfaction with College courses, programs and services
through such instruments as the ACT Student Opinion Survey;
• Measure gains and competencies students have made academically while at the College
through a variety of general education measures focused primarily on reading, writing,
and critical thinking; and
• Demonstrate mastery of technical skills through program outcome measures such as
portfolio, licensure exams and other standardized exams.
These tests, surveys and evaluative activities are used to help students achieve their individual
goals and to improve college services and programs for all students. Students' earnest and
sincere participation in surveys, tests, learning tasks, exit exams and portfolio development
provides the College with accurate information to plan increasingly effective programs and
services. In this effort students become partners in the assessment and learning process.
GRADUATION
The Associate of Science degree, the Associate of Applied Science degree or the Technical
Certificate is awarded by the College to students who meet graduation requirements. Graduation
ceremonies are held once a year. Graduating students may be charged a fee to cover the cost of
the ceremonial cap and gown.
A student is considered eligible for graduation when requirements for graduation have been
fulfilled. Each student entering the final semester prior to graduation must complete an
application for graduation. The application will be certified by the students program advisor
and forwarded to the Registrar's Office where the appropriate diploma will be prepared.
Graduating students will participate in outcomes assessments. To graduate with an Associate
of Science degree, an Associate of Applied Science degree or a Technical Certificate, the student
must:
1. Attain a minimum grade point average of 2.00 in the required technical and general
education courses;
2. Earn 15 credits as a regular student of Ivy Tech rather than by test-out or other means of
advanced placement;
3. Successfully complete the required number of credits;
4. Satisfy all financial obligations due the College; and
5. Satisfy program accreditation standards that may have additional requirements.
DEGREE
TRANSFERRING TO ANOTHER
INSTITUTION
Ivy Tech has articulation agreements under which students may transfer individual courses or
entire programs of study to a number of public and private institutions. A student, depending
on his or her goals, may choose to transfer to another college or university and pursue a bachelors
degree after completion of a series of courses or completion of a two-year degree program at Ivy
Tech. Some of these agreements are collegewide and some pertain to specific campuses of Ivy
Tech.
The selection of an institution for transfer should be an individual decision based upon the
extent to which credits will transfer, compatibility of degree programs, location, availability of
programming, philosophy, and cost of attending the transfer school. Opportunities are available
to Ivy Tech students to transfer and complete a baccalaureate program as a resident or commuting
student. In addition opportunities are available to pursue a bachelor's degree using distance
technologies which will allow a student to complete a degree program within the home
community, even at an Ivy Tech campus.
Through the DegreeLink partnership between Ivy Tech and Indiana State University (ISU),
students may complete an articulated Associate of Science degree program and transfer to ISU
as a junior year student. Students completing associate of science degrees in the linked programs
may pursue bachelors degrees in Electronics Technology, Business Administration, Industrial
Automotive Technology, Mechanical Technology, Community Health, Manufacturing Technology
and Computer Integrated Manufacturing Technology. ISU also provides more general
opportunities for graduates of a variety of programs for earning a Bachelor's degree in Industrial
Supervision, General Industrial Technology, and Human Resources Development. Students
may complete these bachelors programs on ISU's Terre Haute campus, and for certain programs
may be able to complete the Bachelor of Science through coursework brought to Ivy Tech
campuses using distance technologies. For students interested in exploring these options the
Associate of Science curriculum for achieving maximum transferability is detailed in the related
program descriptions in this catalog. Under the Bridge to ISU program, students who have not
been accepted to the university as freshmen are referred to the local Ivy Tech where they can
begin their education and later continue at ISU.

Severe weather conditions or other emergencies occasionally make it necessary to close a campus.
Each campus has designated local radio stations to announce information on closings.
STUDENT RIGHTS AND
RESPONSIBILITIES
Student Conduct
The College is committed to academic integrity in all its practices. The faculty value intellectual
integrity and a high standard of academic conduct. Activities that violate academic integrity
undermine the quality and diminish the value of educational achievement.
The reputation of the College and the community depends in large part upon the behavior of
its students. Students enrolled at the College are expected to conduct themselves in a mature,
dignified and honorable manner. Students are entitled to a learning atmosphere free from
discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment and intimidation. This applies to the conduct
between faculty and staff to students, student to student, and students to faculty and staff.
Students are subject to College jurisdiction while enrolled at the College. The College reserves
the right to take disciplinary action against any student whose conduct, in the opinion of
College representatives, is not in the best interests of the student, other students, or the College.
Community College of Indiana students who are disciplined should expect to find their sanctions
enforced at other Ivy Tech and Vincennes campuses.
All students are expected to abide by the following College rules of conduct.
"Student" as used refers to a student, a group of students, a prospective student or a group of
prospective students.
College Rules

of others about the campus, inhibits the free and normal use of the College buildings and
facilities, or prevents or obstructs the normal operation of the College is not permitted.
Obstruction of the free flow of pedestrian or vehicular traffic on College premises or at
College -sponsored or supervised activities is included in the definition of obstruction.
Cheating: Cheating on papers, tests or other academic works is a violation of College rules.
No student shall engage in behavior that, in the judgment of the instructor of the class,
may be construed as cheating. This may include, but is not limited to, plagiarism or other
forms of academic dishonesty such as the acquisition without permission of tests or other
academic materials and/or distribution of these materials and other academic work. This
includes students who aid and abet as well as those who attempt such behavior.

or staff will face disciplinary action.
7. Disruptive Behavior: Behaviors or actions that disrupt the Colleges processes (academic
and/or non-academic) are in violation of College rules. No student shall behave in a manner
that is unacceptable in a learning environment or that endangers or infringes on the rights
and/or safety of himself or herself or other students, visitors, staff, patients in a clinical
situation, and/or children in childcare centers at Ivy Tech. If misconduct warrants an
immediate suspension from the institutional setting for the remainder of the instructional
period the instructor may do so without a prior hearing. If the student does not voluntarily
leave the institutional setting campus official(s) and/or campus security officers may remove
the student from that setting upon oral request by the instructor.

POLICY AND COMPLAINT PROCEDURE
AGAINST HARASSMENT
The College will not tolerate harassment based on sex (with or without sexual conduct), race,
color, religion, national origin, age, disability, and/or opposition to prohibited discrimination
or participation in this or any other complaint procedure. This prohibition covers harassment
against any student at an Ivy Tech State College campus by anyone, including other students,
employees or non-employees during any College activity or program. The policy prohibiting
harassment includes adverse treatment of students because they report harassment or provide
information related to such complaints.
Sexual harassment is simply one form of harassment covered by this policy Sexual harassment
encompasses unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical
conduct of a sexual nature where:
Submission to the conduct is an explicit or implicit term of student status (which includes
academic and non-academic decisions).
Submission or rejection of the conduct is the basis for any decision affecting that individual's student
status; or such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's
academic performance or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive academic environment.
Sexual harassment would include, but not be limited to, actions such as: (1) sex-oriented oral
or written "kidding" or abuse, (2) photographs, drawings or graffiti of a sexual nature, (3)
subtle pressure for sexual activity, (4) physical conduct such as patting, pinching, or constant
brushing against another's body, and (5) explicit demands for sexual favors, whether or not
accompanied by implied or overt promises of preferential treatment or threats concerning an
individual's student status.
Reporting and Complaint Procedure
Students are encouraged to report harassment before it becomes severe or pervasive. A student
who thinks that he or she has been a victim of harassment and who desires to file a complaint
to that effect should report a complaint as follows:
If the complaint is regarding harassment by another student it may be filed with or. reported to
the Dean of Student Affairs or an academic chairperson with the expectation that the harassing
behavior will be a violation of the College's Code of Student Conduct, either on its own terms
or as a violation of another College policy.
If the complaint is regarding harassment by a College employee or non-employee it may be
filed with or reported to the Dean of Student Affairs, any of the employee's supervisors, or with
the Director of Human Resources or anyone else in a managerial role. All supervisors and
members of management to whom a complaint of harassment is brought or who independently
observe behavior prohibited by the harassment policy are to report the complaint of harassment
or information about harassment promptly to the highest ranking official at the respective
facility who is not the alleged harasser, to the Dean of Student Affairs or to the Director of
Human Resources.
Investigation
Students filing complaints of harassment are assured that information about the allegation of
harassment will be shared only with those who need to know about it. Records relating to
harassment complaints will be kept confidential on the same basis. Complete confidentiality
cannot be guaranteed since conducting an effective investigation would not be possible without
revealing certain information to the alleged harasser and potential witnesses. Under no
circumstances will the individual who conducts the investigation or who has any direct or
indirect control over the investigation be subject to the supervisory authority of the alleged
harasser.
Determination
After all of the evidence is in, interviews are final, and any credibility issues are resolved, a
determination as to whether harassment occurred will be made and the parties informed of the
determination. If no determination can be made because the evidence is inconclusive the parties
wall be informed of this result.
Corrective Action
Violations
After the determination is made the College will undertake prompt and appropriate corrective
action including discipline up to and including termination of employment of an employee
harasser or dismissal of a student harasser, whenever it determines that harassment has occurred
in violation of this policy. Such corrective action will be reported to the student making the
complaint.
The College strives to provide an educational and professional environment that allows
individuals to engage in their daily activities in a safe, healthy and secure manner. Local, state
or federal law enforcement officials will be notified of anyone violating local, state or federal
laws. Violators shall be subject to prosecution by the appropriate law enforcement officials.
Anyone found in violation of College regulations shall be subject to disciplinary action by the
College through due process procedures for student conduct violations.
The regulations and procedures will be placed for reading and review in the library. Copies will
also be available through the Office of Admissions or Student Affairs.
Disciplinary Action
Cases of student misconduct and/or lack of academic integrity are to be referred to the chief
academic officer or chief student affairs officer. A student who violates the rules and regulations
of the College may be subject to disciplinary actions, which may include, but not be limited to,
the following:
1. Verbal reprimand;
2. Restitution for damages;
3. Restriction of privileges;
4. Failure of the assignment or course;
5. Withdrawal from a course, program or the College for the remainder of the semester or
term;
6. Suspension from the College (one calendar year);
7. Dismissal from the College (five years; student may appeal for reinstatement).
In addition, the College representative will be responsible to review all initial disciplinary
procedures and may suspend a student for a period of time until the Student Status Committee
can meet.
Students are provided an opportunity to appeal any disciplinary decision and are required to
sign a waiver if they choose to waive the right to appeal. The basic process in discipline cases is
as follows: notice of charges, notice of possible penalty, and opportunity to explain a defense to
some authority.
1. An appropriate College official shall notify the student that he or she is accused of
violating a regulation.
2. The student shall be notified in writing that he or she may elect one of three courses of
action:
A. The student may admit the alleged violation and agree with the recommended
disciplinary action. A signed waiver which waives the right to appeal is required;
B. The student may admit the alleged violation and request a hearing before the
Student Status Committee.
C. The student may deny the alleged violation, in which case the administrative
officer shall refer him/her to the Student Status Committee.
The Student Status Committee hears all appeals relating to disciplinary actions.
Student Grievance Policy
The student grievance process provides the College an appropriate mechanism to deal with
violations of student rules of conduct and conversely allows a student with a disagreement to
grieve against a College employee's decision affecting that student. The College encourages
students to resolve their complaints informally. The informal grievance procedures are designed
to accomplish a quick resolution that is most expeditious and effective.
Whenever the informal process does not result in a satisfactory resolution the College formal
grievance procedure is also available.
Informal Grievance Procedure
The student shall initiate the informal process with the student working one-on-one with
appropriate faculty or staff and must be started within 30 calendar days of the incident. Students
must bring to the attention of their instructor (in cases involving academic coursework) or
relevant supervisory staff member legitimate complaints perceived by them. The student should
first bring the complaint to the attention of his/her instructor or the person with whom the
student has a complaint. A conference with the student will be scheduled as soon as possible
and within five working days (Monday - Friday) of notice of the student complaint, at the
latest. The intent of these conferences is to ensure an early discussion of the issue, that the issue
has been raised in a timely fashion and that if possible a mutually acceptable resolution can be
reached.
A student who feels that the conference would be futile because of that persons involvement or
the situation/concern cannot be resolved with the instructor or staff with whom the student has
the complaint, he or she should bring the grievance in writing to the supervisor of that area or
department. The conference will be held as soon as possible and at least within five working
days of notice of the complaint. Such conferences are to be conducted in proper sequence of
supervisors. If the grievance is not resolved with an instructor the student may elect to request
a conference with a department head, division chair or the chief academic officer, as deemed
appropriate. Non-instructional areas follow the same step process. Through Student Affairs, for
example, the process would be advisors/counselors, then manager, and finally the chief student
affairs officer. Grievances may cover matters such as the application of College policies and
practices to the grievant but the existence or content of the policies may not be grieved.
Formal Grievance Procedure
If a student is not satisfied with the results of the informal process the student may proceed
with the formal grievance as described below.
Format of the Written Grievance
If the complaint is not resolved to the students satisfaction through the informal procedure the
student shall reduce the grievance to writing. The formal complaint must:
1 . Clearly state the facts giving rise to the grievance.
2. Describe the efforts to informally resolve the complaint.
3. State the remedy sought by the grievant.
4. Be signed and dated.
Timely Filing of a Formal Grievance
Students must file complaints within a reasonable period of time, not to exceed 30 calendar
days, after the informal grievance process has been exhausted. Students must file a grievance
within 30 days of the end of the term in which the incident occurred
Filing the Formal Grievance
Mediation
Original copies of the formal written grievance document shall be filed with both the regional
office of Student Affairs and the College's Executive Director for Student Support Systems (One
West 26th Street, Indianapolis, Indiana 46208). The Executive Director shall assign a College
Grievance Coordinator who shall coordinate the handling of the grievance within the region.
Reasonable efforts should be made by the Grievance Coordinator to mediate a mutually agreeable
resolution of the matter with the parties. A signed document should be generated by the
Grievance Coordinator stating the results of the mediation.
Student Status Committee
The Student Status Committee is a committee whose purpose is to review all formal grievances
referred to it and recommend a resolution to the chief administrative officer. It will be composed
of six members, including two full-time instructional staff members and two administrative
staff persons appointed by the chief administrative officer of the region. The additional two
members will be students designated by the Student Government Association or the chief
student affairs officer. The Committee's review of a formal appeal will begin no later than 30
days after fact-finding and mediation terminates. The Grievance Coordinator shall keep the
grievance body informed of efforts related to fact-finding and mediation. Central Office support,
as needed, will be available to the Grievance Coordinator.
Disposition of a Formal Grievance by the Student Status Committee
If mediation does not resolve the grievance the Student Status Committee shall, in all cases,
conduct a hearing. Unless there is a mutual resolution of the grievance the grievance shall not
be dismissed prior to the hearing. Written notice of the procedures, actions and meetings at all
stages of the formal complaint procedure, including the role of advisors to each party, will be
provided to both the student (grievant) and respondent.
The Student Status Committee will ensure the student due process. The student has the following
rights:
1. Reasonable advance written notification of the time and place of the hearing;
2. Notification in writing of the charges with sufficient particularity to enable the student to
prepare a defense;
3. Notification in writing of the names of the witness (es) directly responsible for reporting
the alleged violation or, if there are no such witness (es), written notification of how the
alleged violation was reported;
4. Notice of actions and meetings at all stages of this appeal procedure;
5. An opportunity to be heard;
6. An opportunity to question witnesses at hearings;
7. An opportunity to have a representative present when presenting facts, being questioned,
or asking questions;
8. An expeditious hearing of the case;
9. An explanation of the decision rendered in the case.
The student shall not be required to testify against him or herself.
Once the formal grievance has been initiated and attempts by the Grievance Coordinator to
mediate a settlement have been exhausted a hearing shall be held pursuant to the hearing
guidelines entitled "Student Grievance Hearing Procedural Guidelines." These guidelines, which
are occasionally updated, describe how the actual hearing will be conducted. The Grievance
Coordinator will provide a copy to both the student (grievant) and respondent at the beginning
of the formal process. Persons who desire to view the guidelines should contact the chief student
affairs officer for a copy.
The Student Status Committee will issue a recommendation(s) to the chief administrative officer
following its deliberation. Recommendations of the Student Status Committee if approved by
the chief administrative officer are final, unless appealed to the Office of the President (see
Appeal to the Office of the President). The student will be informed in writing of the chief
administrative officers decision. A copy of the letter with the chief administrative officer's decision
will be filed in the students permanent record.
Appeal to the Office of the President
If the student does not accept the decision of the Student Status Committee the student may
appeal, in writing, within 30 calendar days from the written notification by sending a written
notice to the General Counsel, Collegewide Appeals Grievance Body, at P.O. Box 1763,
Indianapolis, IN 46206.
An appeal of the decision of the Student Status Committee to the Collegewide Appeals Grievance
Body is limited to procedural errors. The Collegewide Appeals Grievance Body does not review
or re-hear the merits of the original grievance. The Collegewide Appeals Grievance Body can
recommend to the President that the decision should stand or to remand it back to the campus
chief administrative officer for reconsideration. The decision of the President is final.
Reinstatement to the College
If a student is dismissed from any campus/region of Ivy Tech State College, that individual is
dismissed from the College. The year starts at the time/date of official notification to the student
by the Chief Administrative Officer. After one calendar year the individual under suspension
may apply for reinstatement. If the student is dismissed the student may appeal for reinstatement
after five years. The individual must begin the reinstatement appeal process by informing the
chief student affairs officer at the campus where the dismissal took place of his/her intentions.
The appeal for reinstatement may be applied for at any campus/region of Ivy Tech where the
individual hopes to attend. The campus/region Student Status Committee will act on the appeal
within 30 days of its receipt. The recommendation of the Student Status Committee will be
forwarded to the chief administrative officer of the campus/region. That individual will render
a judgement on the appeal. That judgement will be final.
Student Appeal of a Grade
When a student believes the final grade he or she received in a course is inaccurate, he or she
should make an appointment with the instructor who issued the grade or status and explain
the reasons for this belief. This process must be initiated within 30 calendar days of receiving
the grade. The instructor and the student should make every effort to resolve the issue. It is
expected that most if not all misunderstandings will be resolved at this level.
If the grade or status issue is not resolved the student can appeal in writing to the instructor's
supervisor. This individual may be the department chairperson or program chairperson. Once
the student has appealed the grade or status with the chairperson, if the issue is not resolved to
the students satisfaction the student may appeal to the department chairperson, next higher
chairperson, or whomever is next in line.
The student's next recourse is to appeal to the chief academic officer. If the student feels further
appeal is necessary he or she may file a formal grievance to the Student Status Committee
following the procedures as outlined above.
Student Right to Know
The 1990 federal Student Right to Know Act requires colleges and universities to report to
prospective and current students the persistence and graduation rates of full-time technical
certificate and degree-seeking students. The graduation rate is based upon program completion
within 150 percent of time usually required for a full-time student. For technical certificate
students, this is the number of full-time students graduating in three semesters. For associate
degree students, this is the number of students graduating in six semesters. Contact the Office
of Student Affairs for further information.
CAMPUS SECURITY INFORMATION
To Report a Crime
Ivy Tech is required by federal law to report the frequency of criminal activity occurring on its
campuses to current and prospective students, faculty, staff and parents upon request. Any
student, prospective student, faculty or staff person who has been a victim of or a witness to a
criminal activity which occurred on any of the facilities or grounds of any Ivy Tech campus is
encouraged to report this act to campus security or to the Office of Student Affairs.
Hours of Operation
Security
The normal hours of operation are posted at each Ivy Tech campus.
Each Ivy Tech campus designates employees who are responsible for addressing secunty-related

INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAMS
In keeping with its mission and goals, the College serves persons with educational programs
consistent with projected job and educational requirements and personal interests. Ivy Tech
programs complement secondary programs, four-year programs and adult basic education
programs. The purposes of Ivy Tech's programs are to develop competent workers for initial
employment, upgrade the skills of those already employed and provide a foundation for further
education at a baccalaureate institution.
Ivy Tech programs are designed to meet the needs of students, accommodating those who wish
to enroll in a few classes or a full degree program. A few classes in a planned sequence may
comprise a career development certificate. Credit programs culminate in an associate of applied
science degree, an associate of science degree, or a technical certificate.
The College's degree programs are offered in six divisions:
• Business Division
• Health Sciences Division
• Public Services Division
• Technology Division
• Visual Technologies Division
• General Education and Support Services Division
Associate of Applied Science (AAS) Degree Programs
Associate of applied science degree programs prepare students for careers, career changes and
career advancement. AAS programs may also prepare students for transfer to four-year
institutions. These programs offer education in recognized technical areas and specialties with
emphasis on analysis, synthesis and evaluation. The program content, which is approximately
30 percent general education, provides depth and breadth in conceptual and technical skills.
The general education courses equip students with the problem-solving, communications,
scientific and mathematical skills to compete successfully in the job market. Technical courses
equip students with the technical skills to obtain employment and to advance in the workforce.
Associate of Science (AS) Degree Programs
Associate of science degree programs prepare students for transfer to cooperating four-year
institutions and for careers. AS programs contain 40 percent or more general education with
the balance in technical courses. The general education and technical courses provide students
with a foundation for transfer to a four-year institution and eventual completion of a baccalaureate
degree, and equip students with skills for the job market. AS curricula can be tailored to meet
students' specific transfer objectives. Students should contact their local Ivy Tech campus for
information about AS transfer programs.
Technical Certificate (TC) Programs
Technical Certificate programs provide education in conceptual and technical skills for specific
occupations. Each program contains a sequence of required courses in a recognized specialty
within one of the programs at the College. The program content is designed to develop
competency in the comprehension of general and technical skills.
Career Development Certificates (CDC)
Ivy Tech provides short-term programs for individuals who desire to develop competencies in
a specific area. These programs are less than 30 semester credits in length. Instruction is
delivered through methods that include regular courses and specifically designed courses. Many
of these courses are based on a sequence of learning experiences determined by a certifying
state or national association or organization. Completion of certain short-term programs qualifies
students to sit for certification examinations. The number and type of short-term programs
vary among the Ivy Tech campuses.
Business and Industry Training Programs
Ivy Tech offers specialized training services for business and industry. Directors of business
and industry training develop custom-designed programs and services to meet the training
needs of local businesses. Through its training offices Ivy Tech consults, designs, produces,
conducts and evaluates training specifically designed to satisfy employer needs on a one-time
or on-going basis. The directors work with business and industry, trade unions and community
economic development groups to assess training needs and to deliver training when and where
it is needed, often m-plant.
The services provided by the business and industry training programs help ensure that the
skills of employees of Indiana firms are current with changing technology. Instruction that
best meets a company's specific needs is delivered through methods that might include regular
courses, short-term courses, seminars, conferences and labs.
With more than 30 years of experience in technical instruction Ivy Tech has been and continues
to be a leader in promoting Indiana's economic development by providing comprehensive
training services to Indiana businesses and industries. Detailed information is available from
the directors of business and industry training at Ivy Tech campuses.
Indiana Partnership for Statewide Education (IPSE)
The Indiana Partnership for Statewide Education is a collaboration of Indiana's colleges and
universities committed to delivering higher education courses via distance education to all
learners throughout the state. Some IPSE courses are offered via the Indiana Higher Education
Telecommunications System (IHETS). Classes are delivered via satellite from college and
university campuses to learning centers located throughout Indiana, many on Ivy Tech campuses.
Other courses are delivered directly into student homes via cable television, public broadcasting,
video tapes or computers. Most courses offered through the partnership are transferable among
all seven of Indiana's public colleges and universities as well as several private colleges and
universities. Contact the campus for availability of courses.
Statewide Program Initiatives
General Technical Studies Program
The General Technical Studies Program provides an option for students who may not be ready
to enter a degree program. As such the program serves primarily as a beginning point for
students as they define and meet their educational objectives. It is designed to meet the diverse
needs of the students Ivy Tech serves. The program will:
• Provide an opportunity for students to correct skill deficiencies before enrolling in a technical
degree program.
• Provide a program for students who have not selected a specific educational or career goal
by the time they have entered the College.
• Allow students who are waiting for admission into a selective program to enter the College.
• Provide a directed program of career-oriented educational exploration to encourage an
examination of occupational program areas.
• Increase student retention by providing a vehicle which promotes informed choices.
• Provide undecided students the opportunity to pursue coursework which will serve as a
foundation for related one- or two-year programs while engaged in career exploration.
• Provide an opportunity for a student to pursue a one -year program of general technical
studies.
The General Technical Studies Program is offered through the General Education and Support
Services Division. Interested students should contact their local campus to see a description of
the degree requirements.
Apprenticeship Programs
In 1993, Ivy Tech's State Board of Trustees, the Indiana Commission for Vocational and Technical
Education, and the Commission for Higher Education approved joint educational programs
between the College and local joint apprenticeship committees in the building trades.
Individuals who participate in the program become Ivy Tech students and have the opportunity
to earn credit while moving through the program. The apprentice has the opportunity to earn
a technical certificate or associate of applied science degree. The degree depends upon the
local Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee agreement with the College. Credit is given for
on-the-job work experience in accordance with guidelines commonly accepted by institutions
of higher education. Distribution of apprenticeship degree programs varies by site.
Ivy Tech also provides a number of industrial apprenticeship curricula, some of which can
culminate in the awarding of a certificate or degree. Contact the Apprenticeship Enrollment
Manager for further information.
Contact the local Ivy Tech campus for information about the availability of apprenticeship
programs in the building and industrial trades.

health, business, public services and technology. The centers provide pre-assessment services,
classroom and hands-on training, post-assessment and certification testing services in a one-
stop setting. Courses are offered both in semester length and short-term sessions and in credit
and not-for-credit formats. Certification testing is offered to validate the competencies achieved
in training courses. Many certifications can be equated to college credit courses through an
evaluation process conducted by the local faculty.
Business
The Business Division provides career and transfer education for
individuals seeking employment or further education and for those
who are currently employed in business and business-related fields.
Programs lead to an associate of applied science degree, an associate
of science degree or a technical certificate. Opportunities to transfer
credits to four-year colleges are available through associate of
science degrees or through transfer of credit for selected individual
courses. The Business Division also offers courses to students who
are not seeking a degree, but desire specialized post-secondary
education.
The programs in the Business Division — Accounting, Office
Administration, Business Administration and Computer Information
Systems — are accredited on a statewide basis by the Association of
Collegiate Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP). ACBSP

Program Description
Recognizing the demand for trained paralegals, Ivy Tech has
shaped a curriculum with input from attorneys and other
professionals associated with the legal field. These advisors offer
Ivy Tech the opportunity to establish the qualifications necessary
for success in the paralegal field.
The duties of trained paralegals can range from research and
writing to interviewing and investigations. For example, paralegals
can be found performing legal research, drafting legal
correspondence and legal pleadings, interviewing clients and
witnesses, or managing trial documents and exhibits.
An Ivy Tech education provides students with the wide variety of
skills necessary to succeed in this career. The curriculum
emphasizes written and oral communication skills and provides
in-class opportunities for technical skill development. Courses
are taught by attorneys who are selected based upon their
experience in the subject matter, as well as their familiarity with
the function of paralegals as part of the legal team.
A two-year program requiring 60 credits leads to an associate of
applied science degree. A 63-credit Associate of Science degree
will transfer to Ball State University. Students graduating from
the Paralegal program participate in evaluations of proficiency in
general and technical education.
