ABOUT  THE  COLLEGE 


History 

1914— A  small  industrial  arts  shop  opened  at  the  Williamsport  High 

School. 

1920— A  full-time  adult  day  school  and  an  evening  school  were 

established. 

1941— The  Williamsport  Technical  Institute  was  formed, 

encompassing  both  the  adult  and  high  school  programs. 

1965— The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  was  established 

by  expanding  the  programming  of  the  Williamsport  Technical 

Institute  to  include  a  larger  range  of  community  needs. 

1981— The  College  dedicated  three  new  buildings  constructed  under 

Stage  I  of  the  building  improvement  program. 

1984— The  College  dedicated  the  new  Lifelong  Education  Center. 

1985— The  College  broke  ground  for  the  new  Advanced  Technology 

and  Health  Sciences  Center. 

Today 

The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  serves  over  20,000 
people  a  year  through  a  diverse  range  of  programs  and  courses.  The 
College  offers: 

"Fifty-eight  programs  leading  to  associate  degrees  or  certificates  in 
vocational  and  technical  fields  and  in  the  liberal  arts  and  sciences. 

'Vocational  training  for  secondary  students. 

"Courses  tailored  to  meet  the  needs  of  business  and  industry  for 
employee  training. 

"A  broad  range  of  avocational  courses  offered  both  on-campus  and 
at  off-campus  sites. 

Backed  by  a  tradition  of  excellence  in  technical  education,  the 
College  has  gained  a  national  reputation  for  the  diversity  and 
quality  of  its  occupational  programs.  Of  the  more  than  4000 
students  a  year  enrolled  in  associate  degree  and  certificate 
programs,  about  92  percent  are  in  a  technical  or  occupational  area. 

The  College's  programs  are  housed  on  five  campuses:  the 
central  campus  in  Williamsport,  the  Earth  Science  Center  in 
Allenwood/Montgomery,  the  Aviation  Center,  adjacent  to  the 
Lycoming  County  Airport  in  Montoursville,  the  Danville  State  Farm 
Laboratory,  and  the  North  Campus,  located  near  Wellsboro.  Courses 
are  also  offered  at  locations  throughout  the  College's  service  area. 

In  1985,  the  College  broke  ground  for  the  new  Advanced 
Technology  and  Health  Sciences  Center.  This  building  will  expand 
our  ability  to  provide  training  in  a  "new  generation"  of 
technology  — including  fiber  optics,  automated  manufacturing, 
robotics  and  laser  technology.  Our  progress  — in  programming  and 
campus  development  — reflects  our  commitment  to  meeting  the 
emerging  needs  of  our  students  and  the  region  we  serve. 

The  provisions  of  this  catalog  are  not  to  be  considered  an 
irrevocable  contract  between  the  student  and  the  College.  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College  reserves  the  right  to  change 
any  fees,  requirements  and  regulations  at  any  time  within  the 
student's  term  of  enrollment  at  the  College. 

Students  are  responsible  for  meeting  in  full  the  requirements  for 
graduation  set  forth  by  the  College.  The  student's  advisor  assists  in 
the  planning  of  a  program,  but  the  final  responsibility  for  meeting 
the  requirements  for  graduation  rests  with  the  student. 

The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  does  not  discriminate  on 
the  basis  of  age,  sex,  handicap,  race,  religion,  creed,  national  origin, 
veteran  status  or  political  affiliation.  Student  inquiries  concerning 
Title  VI,  IX  and  Section  504  compliance  should  be  directed  to  the

PRESIDENT'S  MESSAGE 

The  challenges  of  the  future  will  be  met  by  men 
and  women  with  the  resources  to  adapt  to  new 
ideas  — and  by  communities  which  support  the  need 
for  innovation  in  technology  and  in  education. 

The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  is 
committed  to  securing  the  future  for  our  students 
and  our  community.  In  1986-87,  the  College  makes 
firm  this  commitment  by  offering  a  series  of  new 
advanced  technology  career  training  opportunities- 
many  of  which  are  unique  to  our  region.  And,  we  will 
open  a  new  multi-million  dollar  Advanced  Technology 
and  Health  Sciences  Center— a  facility  already  hailed 
by  experts  as  "the  most  sophisticated  of  its  type  in 
the  nation". 

This  year  will  be  a  year  of  discovery  at  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College,  as  we  enter 
into  new  program  areas  and  develop  new  ways  of 
serving  our  students.  As  you  review  the  programs 
and  services  described  in  our  1986-87  catalog,  you 
too  will  make  a  great  discovery.  You'll  discover  many 
differences  .  .  .  the  difference  between  a  textbook 
education  and  a  quality  hands-on  learning  experience 
.  .  .  the  difference  between  memorizing  a  classroom 
theory  and  gaining  a  real,  marketable  skill  .  .  .  and 
the  difference  a  Williamsport  Area  Community 
College  education  could  make  in  your  future. 

We  invite  you  to  discover  the  difference. 


Robert  L.  Breuder 
President 


2-ADMISSION 


ADMISSION 


Admission  Policy 

At  The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  we  are 
committed  to  serving  the  educational  needs  of 
students  from  all  walks  of  life.  The  College  operates 
under  an  "open-door"  admissions  policy  and  is  open 
to  anyone  with  a  high  school  diploma  or  its 
equivalent.  Anyone  age  18  or  older  who  does  not 
have  a  high  school  diploma  or  the  equivalent  may  be 
admitted  as  a  "special  student." 

Acceptance  to  several  programs  of  study  is  based 
upon  the  applicant's  meeting  the  requirements 
(including  necessary  academic  skills  and 
prerequisites)  of  the  specific  program  of  study.  The 
College  reserves  the  right  to  deny  admission  or 
readmission  to  any  student  if,  in  the  opinion  of 
College  authorities,  his/her  admission  is  not  in  the 
best  interest  of  the  student  or  the  College. 

The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  offers 
equal  opportunity  for  admission  without  regard  to 
age,  race,  color,  creed,  sex,  national  origin,  handicap, 
veteran  status,  or  political  affiliation. 

The  College  will  provide  opportunities  to  develop  the 
basic  skills  necessary  to  enroll  in  associate  degree 
and  certificate  courses  to  those  who  demonstrate 
such  needs  on  the  College's  placement  tests. 


Acceptance 

The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  will 
accept  students  based  on  the  date  the  applicant's 
file  (i.e.,  application  for  admission,  application  fee, 
transcripts/GED,  and,  when  appropriate,  testing 
material)  is  completed  in  the  Admissions  Office. 


Admission  Procedure 

All  graduates  of  accredited  secondary  schools  in  the 
Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania  are  eligible  for 
admission  to  the  College  as  regular  students. 
Admission  into  a  specific  program  is  based  upon 
evidence  of  scholastic  readiness  for  the  program. 

1.  Application  and  Application  Fee 

All  applicants  to  degree  and  certificate  programs 
must  submit  an  "Application  for  Admission"  form 
together  with  a  non-refundable  application  fee. 
This  fee  is  charged  only  once.  The  Director  of 
Admissions,  upon  written  request  from  a 
counselor,  state  agency,  etc.  has  the  authority  to 
waive  the  fee  when  it  can  be  determined  that  the 
fee  causes  financial  hardship  to  an  individual. 

2.  High  School  Graduation 

a.  High  school  students  must  submit  a  partial 
transcript  during  their  senior  year.  However,  a  final 
transcript  of  high  school  credits  or  proof  of 
graduation  from  an  approved  or  accredited  high 
school  with  a  four-year  course  of  study  must  be 
on  file  before  a  student  can  attend  classes. 

b.  High  school  graduates  must  submit  a  final 
transcript  of  high  school  credits  or  proof  of 
graduation  from  an  approved  or  accredited  high

the  College  on  the  basis  of  an  equivalency 
diploma,  provided  that  the  applicant  has  earned  a

score  average  of  45.  Under  special  circumstances, 
applicants  17  years  of  age  may  be  considered  for 
admission  with  a  minimum  GED  test  score  average 
of  45. 

d.  Anyone  age  18  or  older  who  has  not  met  the 
requirements  of  sections  a.,  b.,  or  c.  above  may  be 
considered  for  admission  into  a  program  as  a 
"special  student"  provided  he/she  has  the 
appropriate  aptitudes  and  abilities  to  enter  the 
College. 

e.  Early  Admissions:  Applicants  who  have 
completed  the  eleventh  grade  at  an  approved  or 
accredited  high  school  may  be  considered  for

student's  early  admission  to  the  Admissions 
Office.  That  written  approval,  plus  the  applicant's 
application  fee  and  transcript,  must  be  provided  to 
the  Admissions  Office  before  consideration  shall 
be  given  the  application.  2.)  If  denied  admission  as 
an  early  admissions  student,  the  applicant  shall  be 
automatically  considered  for  admission  at  the  end 
of  his/her  senior  year.  3.)  All  fees  will  be  the 
responsibility  of  the  student. 

f.  Accelerated  Program:  A  high  school  student 
having  completed  two  years  of  high  school  beyond 
grade  nine  may  enroll  in  the  accelerated  program 
at  The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  in 
lieu  of  the  senior  year  of  high  school.  The  program 
begins  in  the  fall  semester.  When  the  student 
completes  30  or  more  semester  hours  with  a  2.00 
("C")  grade  point  average  or  above,  a  high  school 
diploma  would  be  awarded  by  the  appropriate 
school  district. 

Students  entering  the  Associate  of  Arts  programs 
must  have  a  3.50  high  school  grade  point  average 
(GPA).  For  entrance  into  the  Associate  of  Applied 
Science,  Associate  of  Applied  Arts,  or  Certificate 
programs,  students  must  have  a  minimum  of  a 
2.50  GPA  with  a  minimum  of  two  semesters  with 
a  GPA  of  3.00  in  anticipated  major  or  related 
areas. 

To  be  accepted,  in  addition  to  the  normal 
admission  requirements  students  must  have:  1.)  A

counselor.  2.)  Approval  of  his/her  high  school 
principal.  3.)  A  signed  permission  form  from 
parents/legal  guardians.  4.)  Student/parent 
interview  with  the  College's  Director  of 
Admissions. 

The  application  fee  will  be  waived  by  the  College. 
Tuition  and  related  fees  will  be  paid  by  the  school 
district.  ALL  MATERIALS  WILL  BE  COORDINATED 
THROUGH  THE  COLLEGE'S  SECONDARY 
VOCATIONAL  OFFICE. 

g.  Dual  Enrollment:  Qualified  full-time  high  school 
students  may  enroll  part-time  in  College  credit 
classes.  College  courses  taken  can  be  counted 
toward  high  school  graduation  with  the  school's 
approval.  Students  must  be  in  the  tenth,  eleventh 
or  twelfth  grade  and  have  a  2.50  minimum  high 
school  GPA  to  be  eligible. 

The  same  admission  requirements,  payment  of 
fees  and  processing  of  the  application  procedures 
outlined  in  the  accelerated  program  apply  here. 

h.  Credit  in  Escrow:  High  school  students  who 
have  completed  two  years  beyond  the  ninth  grade 


with  a  GPA  of  2.50  may  enroll  part-time  at  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College.  They  can 
take  up  to  11  credit  hours,  as  determined  by  the 
Admissions  Office,  based  upon  the  student's 
ability  and  required  high  school  time.  The  same 
admission  requirements,  payment  of  fees  and 
processing  of  the  application  procedures  outlined 
in  the  accelerated  program  apply  here. 


3.  Placement  Examinations 

To  insure  that  applicants  have  the  entry-level  skills 
needed  for  their  programs,  all  students  are  required 
to  take  the  College's  placement  examinations.  The 
College  uses  these  examinations  to  assess 
applicants'  skills  in  math,  English  and  reading. 
Based  on  the  results  of  their  tests,  students  will 
be  placed  in  the  appropriate  math,  English  and 
reading  courses.  The  College  reserves  the  right  to 
recommend  another  program  or  require 
developmental  courses  if  the  test  results  indicate 
that  an  applicant  does  not  have  the  required 
academic  entry  skills.  Applicants  who  have 
demonstrated  academic  proficiency  through  either 
previous  college  course  work  or  College  Boards 
(SAT  or  ACT)  may  be  exempt  from  testing. 


4.  Health  Records  Requirement 

A  student  who  may  need  special  accommodations 
due  to  a  physical  or  mental  disability/handicap 
must  submit  his/her  medical  history  on  a  health 
record  card.  (Health  record  cards  are  available  from 
the  College's  Admissions  Office.)  The  health  card 
should  be  submitted  well  in  advance  of  the  term  in 
which  the  student  plans  to  enroll  to  allow  the 
College  to  prepare  for  any  special  needs.  The  card 
must  be  received  before  the  student  can  begin 
classes.  A  disability  or  handicap  will  not  be  used 
to  deny  a  person  admission  to  the  College. 

5.  Tuition  Deposit  and  Tuition  Payment 

All  full-time  applicants  who  have  been  accepted  as 
degree-seeking  or  certificate-seeking  students 
must  submit  a  $100  tuition  deposit.  The  tuition 
deposit  will  be  credited  to  the  student's  tuition  for 
the  first  semester.  If  the  student  does  not  enroll 
and  notifies  the  College  by  July  1  for  the  fall 
semester  and  December  1  for  the  spring  semester, 
the  College  will  refund  80  percent  of  the  tuition 
deposit. 

The  tuition  deposit  will  hold  a  space  in  class  until 
the  announced  deadline.  Students  who  have  not 
met  their  total  financial  obligations  for  the 
semester  by  the  deadline  will  forfeit  their  class 
space.  As  a  result,  someone  from  the  College's 
waiting  list  may  take  their  space  in  the  program. 


4-ADMISSION 


6.  Additional  Requirements  for  Certain  Programs 

In  addition  to  the  College's  general  admission 
policies,  applicants  to  certain  programs  shall 
complete  other  requirements  prior  to  qualifying  for 
acceptance.  These  programs  are:  Dental  Hygiene, 
Dental  Assisting,  Occupational  Therapy  Assistant, 
Surgical  Technology,  Practical  Nursing,  Radiography 
and  Automated  Manufacturing  Technology.  These 
programs  require: 

a.  Applicant  must  have  graduated  from  an 
accredited  secondary  school  or  have  successfully 
completed  his/her  General  Equivalency  Diploma 
(GED). 

b.  Applicant  must  successfully  complete  the 
College's  placement  tests. 

c.  Applicants  to  all  the  above  programs  except 
Automated  Manufacturing  Technology  must  be 
interviewed  by  designated  program  personnel. 


2.  Applicants  must  submit  an  affidavit  of  support  for 
themselves  and  for  all  members  of  their  family 
who  will  accompany  them  to  Williamsport.  The 
affidavit  certifies  that  the  applicant  has  adequate 
funds  to  attend  college  and  will  not  become  a 
public  charge.  Failure  to  provide  this  information 
may  result  in  the  denial  of  the  applicant's 
application  for  an  "F-l"  student  visa. 

3.  All  international  students  who  are  accepted  must 
take  the  College's  placement  tests.  Placement  into 
the  appropriate  level  of  courses  will  be  determined 
by  the  tests.  International  students  must  arrange 
to  be  on  campus  approximately  one  week  prior  to 
registration  for  the  term  in  which  they  are 
enrolling.  Failure  to  complete  placement  tests  may 
result  in  denial  of  acceptance  into  programs. 

4.  International  students  must  become  familiar  with 
the  regulations  of  the  Immigration  and 
Naturalization  Service  and  assume  responsibility 
for  complying  with  test  regulations. 


d.  Applicants  to  the  Radiography  program  are 
required  to  have  a  hospital  observation. 


Reenrollment 


e.  Applicants  to  Practical  Nursing,  Radiography, 
Surgical  Technology,  Occupational  Therapy 
Assistant  and  Dental  Hygiene  are  required  to  have 
additional  standardized  tests  beyond  the  College's 
placement  tests. 


Former  students  who  wish  to  reenroll  must  apply  for 
readmission  through  the  Admissions  Office.  They  do 
not  need  to  submit  an  application  fee.  They  may  be 
required  to  submit  a  health  records  card.  (See  Health 
Records  Requirement  on  page  3.) 


f.  Applicants  to  Automated  Manufacturing 
Technology  must  have  the  competencies  of  the 
first  semester  Machinist  courses. 


Admission  of  International  Students 

The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  believes 
that  the  presence  of  international  students  on 
campus  will  enrich  the  educational  environment  for 
all  students.  The  College  is  authorized  under  federal 
law  to  enroll  non-immigrant  alien  students  on  "F-l" 
student  visas.  An  "Application  for  Admission"  and  all 
supporting  documents  must  be  received  in  the 
Admissions  Office  at  least  two  weeks  prior  to  the 
day  of  late  registration  for  the  term  in  which  the 
student  plans  to  enroll. 

All  transcripts,  test  scores,  and  other  credentials 
become  the  property  of  the  College  and  will  not  be 
returned  or  transferred  to  another  institution. 

In  addition  to  the  College's  general  admission 
requirements,  international  students  must  fulfill  the 
following  requirements: 

1.  All  international  students  whose  native  language  is 
not  English  are  required  to  take  the  Test  of  English 
as  a  Foreign  Language  (TOEFL). 


1.  A  student  who: 

a.  reenrolls  in  the  same  program  in  which  he/she 
was  last  enrolled,  and 

b.  reenrolls  less  than  two  years  after  he/she  last 
attended  the  College, 

may  be  required  to  meet  graduation  requirements 
in  effect  at  the  time  the  student  was  originally 
enrolled. 

2.  A  student  who: 

a.  reenrolls  in  the  same  program  in  which  he/she 
was  last  enrolled,  and 

b.  reenrolls  two  or  more  years  after  he/she  last 
attended  the  College, 

must  meet  current  graduation  requirements.  All 
course  work  previously  completed  will  be  reviewed 
on  a  course  by  course  basis  to  determine  whether 
it  meets  current  graduation  requirements.  All 
courses  completed  will  remain  on  the  student's 
transcript.  Only  credits  for  courses  which  meet  the 
current  program  requirements  will  be  used  in 
calculating  the  student's  cumulative  grade  point 
average. 

3.  If  a  student  reenrolls  in  a  program  different  from 
the  one  in  which  he/she  was  last  enrolled,  each 


ADMISSION-5 


course  previously  taken  will  be  evaluated  to 
determine  whether  it  meets  the  requirements  of 
the  new  program.  Only  credits  for  courses  which 
meet  the  requirements  of  the  current  program  will 
be  used  in  calculating  the  student's  cumulative 
grade  point  average.  However,  all  courses 
completed  will  remain  on  the  student's  transcript. 
Students  reenrolling  in  a  new  program  are  required 
to  meet  the  graduation  requirements  for  the  new 
program  in  effect  at  the  time  they  reenroll. 

Special  circumstances  may  be  appealed  to  the 
Dean  of  Academic  Affairs  or  his/her  designee,  who 
may  waive  the  conditions  given  above. 


Change  of  Program 

A  change  of  program  may  be  made  at  the  beginning 
of  any  semester.  Currently  enrolled  students  who 
wish  to  change  from  one  program  of  study  to 
another  must  follow  the  steps  below: 

1.  Complete  an  "Admissions  Application"  and  submit 
it  to  the  Admissions  Office.  Acceptance  into  the 
new  program  will  be  based  on  the  date  the 
applicant's  file  is  complete  in  the  Admissions 
Office. 

2.  Complete  a  "Curriculum  Change"  form;  obtain  all 
required  signatures  (advisor,  counseling,  division 
director,  financial  aid,  admissions).  Submit  the 
form  to  the  Student  Records  Office. 


When  a  student  changes  his/her  program,  all  credits 
earned  in  the  prior  program  will  be  evaluated  for 
transfer  to  the  new  program.  All  prior  course  work 
will  appear  on  the  student's  transcript.  Only  courses 
applicable  to  the  new  program  will  be  used  to 
calculate  the  student's  new  cumulative  grade  point 
average. 


Transfer  Students 

Students  from  other  colleges  who  wish  to  transfer  to 
The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  must 
follow  the  procedure  below: 

1.  Complete  steps  listed  under  Admission  Procedure, 
(see  page  2)  with  the  exception  of  "High  School 
Graduation." 

2.  Ask  all  college(s)  previously  attended  to  send  an 
official  transcript  to  The  Williamsport  Area 
Community  College  Admissions  Office.  The 
College  may  also  request  a  high  school  transcript. 

3.  Provide  course  descriptions  or  a  college  catalog  to 
the  Admissions  Office  for  use  in  evaluating 
courses  completed  at  another  institution. 


Transfer  Credit 

Transfer  credit  includes:  credit  for  courses  earned  at 
another  institution,  college  credit  earned  before  high 
school  graduation,  service  credit,  United  States 
Armed  Forces  Institute  (USAFI)  credit,  and  credit 
earned  through  the  College  Level  Examination 
Program  (CLEP). 

A  maximum  of  30  transfer  credits  may  be  applied 
toward  a  degree  or  certificate.  Courses  to  be 
considered  for  transfer  must  have  been  completed 
with  a  grade  of  "C"  or  better.  However,  if  a  student 
earns  a  cumulative  "C"  average  or  better  in 
sequential  courses  (for  example,  English  1  and 
English  2)  an  exception  may  be  made  based  on  the 
evaluation  of  the  courses.  Courses  taken  more  than 
two  years  before  the  student  enrolls  at  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College  may  be 
evaluated  (on  a  course-by-course  basis)  to  determine 
if  they  are  equivalent  to  courses  currently  required  in 
the  student's  program.  A  copy  of  the  evaluation  of 
transfer  credit  will  be  sent  to  the  student. 

All  transfer  credit  will  appear  on  the  student's 
transcript  after  the  student  successfully  completes 
one  semester  of  academic  work  at  The  Williamsport 
Area  Community  College.  Transfer  credit  will  appear 
on  the  transcript  with  credit  value  only.  Transfer 
students  will  enroll  without  any  cumulative  grade 
point  average.  A  student  must  be  enrolled  in  courses 
at  The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  for  at 
least  the  last  12  credit  hours  of  his/her  program. 
Requirements  for  the  evaluation  of  different  forms  of 
transfer  credit  are  listed  below. 

1.  Transfer  from  Another  Institution 

All  credits  earned  at  a  previously  attended 
institution(s)  will  be  evaluated  for  transfer  credit. 
The  student  must  send  The  Williamsport  Area 
Community  College  Admissions  Office  an  official 
catalog  description  of  each  course  to  be  evaluated 
and  a  description  of  the  grading  codes  (if  the 
grade  codes  are  not  defined  on  the  transcript) 
from  each  institution  from  which  courses  are  to  be 
evaluated.  These  materials  must  consist  of  either 
of  the  following:  the  institution's  catalog  or  a 
photocopy  of  the  course  descriptions  and  the 
grade  codes  description  taken  from  the 
institution's  catalog. 

2.  College  Credit  Earned  Before  High  School 
Graduation 

College  credit  earned  before  high  school 
graduation  will  be  evaluated  only  if  the  college 
where  the  work  was  taken  issues  an  official 
college  transcript.  Students  who  have  earned 
college  credit  before  graduation  from  high  school 
must  follow  the  procedure  defined  under  "Transfer 
from  Another  Institution." 


6-ADMISSION 


3.  Service  Credit 

Veterans  who  have  served  12  consecutive  months 
of  active  military  duty  will  be  granted  credit  for

their  program).  The  student  must  submit  a  copy  of 
his/her  report  of  separation  (DD-214)  and  complete 
a  waiver  for  physical  education  with  the  Health 
Sciences  Office. 

4.  United  States  Armed  Forces  Institute  Credit 
(USAFI) 

The  College  may  grant  credit  for  USAFI  credit.  An 
official  transcript  must  be  mailed  directly  from  the 
USAFI  in  Madison,  Wisconsin  to  the  College's 
Admissions  Office.  Credit  will  be  granted  for  those 
courses  which  are  substantially  comparable  to 
courses  offered  at  The  Williamsport  Area 
Community  College.  If  the  student's  program 
includes  electives,  elective  credit  will  be  granted 
for  those  courses  which  are  not  comparable. 

5.  College  Level  Examination  Program  (CLEP) 

The  College  will  examine  CLEP  results  and  may 
grant  college  credit  to  individuals  who  score  at 
least  in  the  fiftieth  percentile  rank  on  the  CLEP 
exam.  The  student  must  provide  an  official  copy  of 
his/her  CLEP  scores  to  the  College's  Admissions 
Office.  The  College  will  determine  whether  credit 
earned  through  CLEP  will  be  issued  for  required 
credit  courses  or  as  elective  credit. 

Non-Degree  Students 

A  student  who  does  not  wish  to  pursue  a  degree  or 
certificate  program  is  a  non-degree  student.  Such 
students  are  permitted  to  select  courses  without 
regard  to  degree  or  certificate  requirements.  If  at  a 
later  date,  a  non-degree  student  desires  to  enroll  in  a 
specific  degree  or  certificate  program,  an  application 
for  admission  to  the  program,  together  with  any 
other  required  credentials,  must  be  submitted  to  the 
Admissions  Office. 

Non-degree  students  are  not  eligible  for  financial  aid. 
They  are  permitted  to  schedule  classes  on  a  first- 
come/first-served  basis  (after  currently  enrolled 
students  have  been  given  the  opportunity  to  schedule 
classes).  Non-degree  students  must  complete  an 
"Admissions  Application"  form  the  first  time  they 
schedule  credit  classes,  but  are  not  required  to  pay 
the  application  fee. 

Transfer  Of  Credits  To  Four-Year  Institutions 

The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  has 
established  formal  agreements  with  Cheyney, 
Kutztown,  Lincoln,  Lock  Haven,  Mansfield,  and 
Millersville  Universities  in  Pennsylvania.  These 


agreements  transfer  the  Associate  of  Arts  at  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College,  under  general 
conditions,  to  these  institutions  with  junior-level 
status. 

The  College  is  negotiating  similar  formal  agreements 
with  the  following  college  and  universities: 
Bloomsburg  University,  Rochester  Institute  of 
Technology,  and  Wilkes  College. 

Williamsport  Area  Community  College  graduates 
earning  Associate  of  Applied  Science  or  Associate  of 
Applied  Arts  degrees  can  often  transfer  significant 
portions  of  their  A.A.S.  or  AAA.  program  of  study  to 
a  four-year  college  or  university.  The  College  has  a 
formal  agreement  with  Lock  Haven  University  which 
recognizes  A.A.S.  and  A.A.A.  degrees  from  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College  as  part  of  a 
Bachelor  of  Science  in  General  Studies-Technology 
Management  degree.  B.S.  degrees  with  specialities  in 
areas  other  than  management  are  under  discussion 
between  the  College  and  Lock  Haven  University. 

If  you  would  like  detailed  information  about 
transferability  of  specific  courses  or  programs,  please 
consult  your  division  director. 


Housing 

Students  are  responsible  for  making  their  own 
housing  arrangements.  The  Admissions  Office, 
Academic  Center,  Room  104,  maintains  a  list  of  area 
housing  facilities  for  men  and  women.  Prospective 
students  are  urged  to  make  arrangements  for  housing 
as  soon  as  possible  after  being  admitted.  A  brochure 
containing  guidelines  on  obtaining  housing  is 
available.  The  College  does  not  sponsor,  approve, 
disapprove,  evaluate  or  supervise  the  listed  facilities. 
Any  agreement  for  renting  is  solely  between  the 
landlord  and  student. 


Health  Services 

Student  Health  Services  is  staffed  by  a  registered 
nurse  and  is  open  Monday  through  Friday  from  8 
a.m.  to  3:30  p.m.  during  the  fall  and  spring 
semesters.  First  aid,  health  counseling,  and

available.  Costs  for  private  health  care  are  the 
student's  responsibility.  Student  Health  Services  is 
located  on  the  first  floor  of  the  Gymnasium,  Room 
104. 


Student  Retention  Data 

Persons  interested  in  obtaining  data  on  student 
retention  (number  of  students  who  enroll  at  the 
College  and  number  who  actually  complete  their 
program)  should  contact  the  Registrar/Director  of 
Institutional  Research,  Academic  Center,  Room  110.

TUITION  AND  FEES 

Full-Time  Students 

State  regulations  define  a  full-time  student  as  anyone 
enrolled  for  12  or  more  credit-hours  per  semester. 
However,  tuition  and  related  fees  are  based  solely  on 
the  number  of  credits  for  which  you  are  enrolled,  as 
described  below. 

Application  Fee 

Applicants  for  status  as  full-time  students  in  degree 
or  certificate  programs  must  include  a  non-refundable

determined deadline,  the  College  will  refund  80 
percent  of  the  tuition  deposit.

enrolled  by  the  total  per  credit  charge  under  the 
appropriate  residence  category.  The  four  categories 
of  residence  and  the  tuition  and  fees  for  each  are:

payment  from  any  student  except  as  required  for 
tuition  deposits,  financial  aid  plans,  or  within  the 
guidelines  established  by  the  Board  of  Trustees' 
policy  for  deferred  fee  status  (given  below). 

Any  student  whose  fee  is  in  arrears  after  the  first 
day  of  classes  shall  be  subject  to  a  $20  deferred 
processing  fee. 

Students  who  are  unable  to  pay  tuition  and  fees  in

determined  by  the  College)  and  pay  the  remaining 
portion  in  two  equal  installments  at  30-day  intervals 
following  the  beginning  of  the  semester.  A 
processing  fee  will  be  charged  for  this  installment 
plan.  Nullification  or  adjustment  of  financial  aid 
awards  shall  not  alter  the  student's  obligation  to 
complete  installment  payments  to  the  College. 

Students  who  fail  to  meet  their  financial  obligations 
under  this  plan  shall  be  administratively  withdrawn. 
Such  termination  will  not  cancel  the  student's 
financial  obligations  to  the  College.  Students

tries  to  keep  expenses  as  low  as  possible  by 
operating  the  College  Bookstore  on  a  low-cost  basis. 
For  full-time  students  the  cost  for  books  and  supplies 
can  be  as  high  as  $300  per  semester. 


Tools 

When  you  have  been  accepted  in  a  particular 
program,  the  Admissions  Office  will  provide  you  with 
a  list  of  required  tools.  We  recommend  that  you  do 
not  buy  any  tools  or  protective  clothing  for  any 


TUITION  AND  FEES-9 


course  before  attending  the  first  class.  Tool  costs 
vary  greatly,  depending  on  your  program.  Prospective 
students  should  contact  the  Admissions  Office  for  a 
list  of  estimated  tool  costs  for  each  program.  The 
tools  will  be  your  personal  property.  In  many  cases, 
students  will  use  these  tools  throughout  their 
careers. 


Transcripts 

The  student's  grade  report  is  an  unofficial  transcript 
(identical  to  the  official  transcript,  but  without  the 
official  seal)  which  shows  all  course  work  completed 
by  the  student.  Students  may  use  their  grade  report 
when  an  unofficial  transcript  is  needed.  Official 
transcripts  are  only  those  transcripts  sent  to  another 
institution,  agency,  or  employer. 

Students  will  be  charged  $1.00  for  each  additional 
transcript.  All  requests  for  additional  transcripts  must 
be  submitted  in  writing  to  the  Student  Records 
Office.  The  request  must  contain  the  following 
information:  the  student's  name  while  attending  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College,  the  student's 
address  and  social  security  number,  the  dates  of 
enrollment,  the  name  of  the  program(s)  in  which  the 
student  was  enrolled,  and  a  complete  address  to 
which  the  transcript  is  to  be  sent.  If  the  transcript  is 
sent  to  the  student  or  to  his/her  address,  it  is 
considered  an  unofficial  copy.  .

10-FINANCIAL  AID 


FINANCIAL  AID 


Recognizing  that  the  cost  of  education  is  often 
greater  than  the  student  and  his/her  family  can  afford 
without  help,  the  Financial  Aid  Office  helps  students 
obtain  financial  assistance  through  a  variety  of  aid 
programs: 

Grants 

Scholarships 

Loans 

College  Work-Study  Program 

Veteran's  Benefits 

Vocational  Rehabilitation  Sponsorship 

Part-Time  Employment 

Every  student  is  encouraged  to  thoroughly  explore 
each  of  the  above  programs,  and  to  contact  the 
Financial  Aid  Office  for  assistance  in  obtaining  and 
completing  applications  for  aid. 


Employment 

Students  interested  in  part-time  employment  other 
than  the  College  Work-Study  programs  should 
contact  the  Advisement  and  Career  Services  Center 
for  further  information. 


Special  Attention 

Deadlines 

Students  who  want  the  fullest  consideration  for  all 
awards  should  have  all  needed  application  materials 
complete  and  on  file  in  the  Financial  Aid  Office  as 
soon  as  possible.  For  the  1987-88  year,  for  example, 
completed  applications  for  some  forms  of  aid  should 
be  filed  by  March  1,  1987.  Applications  received  after 
this  date  will  be  processed  and  students  filing  late 
will  be  considered  for  aid,  but  only  after  other 
applications  received  by  the  deadline  have  been 
received  and  awards  made. 

An  exception  to  the  above  deadline  is  made  for  the 
Guaranteed  Student  Loan  Program.  Loan  applications 
may  be  submitted  at  any  time  during  the  year,  but 
should  be  filed  early  enough  to  allow  for  the  six  to 
eight  week  processing  time  prior  to  loan  approval  and 
release  of  funds  to  the  applicant. 

Need  Analysis  Forms 

To  determine  a  student's  financial  eligibility  for 
awards,  especially  Supplemental  Grants  and  Work- 
Study  awards,  a  review  of  the  family  financial 
situation  must  be  completed. 


The  College  uses  the  Pennsylvania  Higher  Education 
Assistance  Agency  system  for  need  analysis 
purposes.  These  forms  can  be  obtained  from  the 
College's  Financial  Aid  Office,  high  schools  and  the 
state  agency. 


Policy  on  Satisfactory  Academic  Progress 

This  policy  applies  to  all  students  receiving  financial 
aid  from  federal  or  state  student  assistance 
programs: 

Federal  Programs  (Pell/SEOG/College  Work 
Study/Guaranteed  Student  Loan/Plus  Loan): 

A  full-time  student  who  receives  aid  from  the  Pell, 
SEOG,  or  College  Work  Study  programs  must  make 
satisfactory  academic  progress  in  order  to  continue 
to  be  eligible  for  aid.  Students  shall  be  considered  to 
be  making  satisfactory  progress  if,  based  on 
academic  achievement,  the  College  allows  them  to

TECHNOLOGY  STUDIES  (TS) 

Associate  Degree 


Technology  Studies  is  a  flexible  program  — designed 
especially  for.  but  not  limited  to  — people  currently 
employed  in  industry  or  business.  Course  selection  is  based 
almost  entirely  upon  the  goals  of  the  individual  student.  As 
many  as  30  credits  may  be  awarded  through  advanced 
placement,  credit  by  examination,  or  credit  for  work/life 
experience,  thus  reducing  the  number  of  courses  to  be 
completed  on  campus.  Most  students  will  complete  this 
program  on  a  part-time  basis;  therefore,  a  number  of 
specialized  courses  will  be  offered  in  a  rotating  sequence 
to  provide  increased  scheduling  opportunites. 

The  minimum  requirements  for  the  Associate  Degree  in 
Technology  Studies  are: 

1.  Successfully  complete  a  minimum  of  60  credit  hours  of 
associate  degree  level  courses  (see  page  88  for 
definition)  in  a  planned  program  of  study. 

2.  The  60  credit  hours  must  include  at  least  18  credits  of 
general  education  core  courses  selected  from  the

Education  Emphasis 

The  Education  Emphasis  is  modeled  on  the  first  two  years 
of  a  four-year  professional  education  curriculum.  Students 
have  the  opportunity  to  complete  much  of  their  general 
academic  course  work  and  to  become  familiar  with 
education  as  a  career.  Students  who  enroll  in  this  program 
usually  go  on  to  earn  a  baccalaureate  degree.  Graduates 
who  choose  not  to  continue  their  education  may  find  jobs 
as  teachers'  aides,  classroom  assistants  or  in  other 
paraprofessional  areas.

Pre-Law  Emphasis 

The  student  who  plans  to  enter  law  school  should  develop 
a  program  which  includes  a  broad  base  of  liberal  studies. 
The  Association  of  American  Law  Schools  recommends 
that  programs  emphasize  the  following: 

1.  Comprehension  and  expression  in  words 

2.  Critical  understanding  of  human  institutions  and  values 

3.  Creative  power  in  thinking 

The  program  below  is  based  on  these  recommendations. 
Modifications  in  this  program  should  be  planned  in 
conjunction  with  the  pre-law  advisor.

Pre-Medical  Emphasis 

The  Pre-Medical  Emphasis  offers  preparation  for  careers  in 
medicine,  pharmacy,  dentistry,  optometry,  veterinary 
medicine,  chiropractic,  other  health  professions,  and 
scientific  research.  The  program  also  meets  the  needs  of 
students  interested  in  fields  like  chemistry,  physics  and 
biology.  Because  of  the  rigorous  and  time-consuming 
nature  of  the  medical  programs  — which  include  much 
training  in  clinical  laboratories  and  patient-related 
experiences  — students  should  have  aptitudes  in 
mathematics  and  science.  Laboratory  experience  and 
manual  dexterity  are  also  important.

INDIVIDUAL  STUDIES  PROGRAM 

Individual  Studies  is  the  most  flexible  program  offered  by 
the  College.  It  is  designed  for  the  student  who  wants  to 
explore  a  number  of  careers  — people  interested  in  personal 
enrichment —  someone  who  wants  to  prepare  for  a  very 
specialized  career  — anyone  whose  educational  goals  are  not 
met  by  the  College's  other  programs.  Cooperative 
education  options  are  available  to  students  enrolled  in 
Individual  Studies. 

OBJECTIVES 

Upon  completion  of  the  Individual  Studies  Program  the 
student  will  have  developed  one  or  more  of  the  following: 

1.  awareness  of  his/her  academic  and  manual  abilities  and 
careers  in  which  they  can  be  applied. 

2.  extensive  knowledge  of  one  or  more  subjects. 

3.  technical  skills  in  one  or  more  areas  and  general 
knowledge  in  desired  academic  subjects. 

4.  entry-level  job  skills  in  a  paraprofessional  or  technical 
field. 

5.  completion  of  courses  required  for  the  four-year 
program  into  which  he/she  intends  to  transfer. 

GRADUATION  REQUIREMENTS 

1.  Successfully  complete  the  College's  graduation 
requirements  for  all  Associate  Degree  Programs.  (See 
pg.  131.) 

2.  Successfully  complete  a  minimum  of  sixty  (60)  credits 
of  Associate  Degree  level  course  work: 

a.  The  60  credit  hours  must  include  12  credits  of 
General  Education  Core  courses  (see  page  80  for  a 
list  of  General  Education  Core  course  subjectsl  as 
specified  below: 

Communications  6  credits 

Mathematics  or  Statistics  3  credits 

Humanities  OR  Social  Sciences  OR 
Natural  Sciences  3-4  credits 

b.  Full-time  students  must  complete  four  additional 
credits  of  Fitness  &  Lifetime  Sports,  bringing  the 
total  number  of  required  credits  to  64;  part-time 
students  may  be  exempted  from  this  requirement. 

3.  Complete  all  placement  testing  required  by  the  College. 
Students  must  demonstrate  basic  mastery  of  English, 
reading,  and  mathematics  through  placement  testing  or 
through  successful  completion  of  appropriate  courses 
(Developmental  Studies  courses!  designed  to  provide 
basic  skills  and  competencies  in  these  areas. 

4.  The  student  must  complete  a  planned  educational 
program  of  studies. 

This  plan  should  be  developed  by  the  student  and  his 
or  her  advisor  and  be  filed  with  the  appropriate  Division 
Director  prior  to  the  completion  of  eighteen  118) 
semester  hours  of  credit. 


CURRICULUM  POSSIBILITIES 

Students  in  Individual  Studies  select  courses  based  almost 
entirely  on  their  goals.  Advisors  work  with  students  in 
designing  programs  and  selecting  the  courses  which  will 
best  meet  their  needs.  It  may  take  longer  than  two  years  to 
complete  courses  desired  because  of  scheduling  conflicts. 
This  is  particularly  true  for  students  who  schedule 
laboratory  or  shop  courses  which  require  large  blocks  of 
time. 

A  special  Individual  Studies  option  -  in  Respiratory  Therapy 
Technician -is  offered  in  cooperation  with  the  Harrisburg 
Area  Community  College  (See  page  861. 

AN  EXAMPLE  OF  A  PLANNED  INDIVIDUAL  STUDIES 
PROGRAM 

A  person  may  wish  to  enroll  in  the  Individual  Studies 
program  to  prepare  for  a  particular  occupational  specialty. 
For  example,  someone  who  enjoys  flower  arranging  and 
cooking  might  want  to  prepare  to  own  and  run  a  catering 
business.  Courses  could  be  selected  from  Food  and 
Hospitality  Management,  Floriculture,  Business,  and  related 
areas.  One  possible  selection  of  64  credits  of  course  work 
follows: 

Food  and  Hospitality  Management 

Quantity  Food  Preparation 

Menu  Planning  &  Cost  Control 

Purchasing,  Storage  &  Sanitation 

Hospitality  Merchandising 

Equipment  &  Layouts 

Personnel  Management,  Work  Simplification

Another  student  with  this  same  career  goal  might  choose 
to  emphasize  another  area  depending  on  interest  and  prior 
experience.  For  example,  someone  who  had  prepared  food 
for  many  large  parties  in  their  own  home  might  feel  quite 
competent  in  the  food  area  and  wish  to  emphasize 
business  courses.  The  exact  combination  of  courses  in  the 
individual  studies  program  is  decided  entirely  by  the 
individual,  with  the  help  of  an  advisor.

number  of  leading  industries  from  across  the  country. 
On-campus  recruitment  usually  takes  place  from 
September  through  December  and  from  February 
through  April.  Information  on  these  interviews  is 
announced  in  The  SPOTLIGHT  and  in  the  New  Week 
News. 

Career  services  seminars  are  held  each  semester,  just 
prior  to  graduation,  for  prospective  graduates.  During 
these  seminars  sample  letters  of  application  and 
resumes  are  distributed.  Students  learn  how  to 
prepare  for  job  interviews  and  receive  information  on 
employment  trends  in  various  parts  of  the  country. 
During  the  seminars,  students  also  provide 
information  for  their  placement  cards  at  the  College. 


Services  for  Special  Needs  Students 

Many  students  are  successful  despite  certain 
handicapping  conditions.  Advisement  and  Career 
Services  staff  coordinate  all  services  for  handicapped 
students.  Students  who  need  such  services  as 
special  tutors,  oral  testing,  tape  recorders,  note 
takers,  mobility  assistants,  etc.  are  asked  to  contact 
the  Center  in  Room  157  of  the  Learning  Resources 
Center  before  they  enroll  in  classes  so  that  any 
special  arrangements  can  be  made.

ACADEMIC 
INFORMATION 


Classification  of  Students 


12 


Full-Time:  A  full-time  student  is  one  who  carries 
or  more  credits.  Sixteen  hours  of  lecture/ 
demonstration,  or  48  hours  of  shop/lab,  equal  one 
credit. 


Part-Time:  A  degree  or  certificate  candidate  who 
carries  fewer  than  12  credits  per  semester  is  enrolled 
as  a  part-time  student. 

Non-Degree:  A  non-degree  student  is  one  who  is  not 
enrolled  in  a  degree  or  certificate  program.  Non- 
degree  students  can  select  courses  without  regard  to 
degree  or  certificate  requirements.  Non-degree 
students  are  not  eligible  for  financial  aid.  They  are 
permitted  to  schedule  classes  on  a  first-come,  first- 
served  basis  (after  currently  enrolled  students  have 
been  given  the  opportunity  to  schedule  classes). 
Non-degree  students  must  complete  an  "Admissions 
Application"  form  the  first  time  they  schedule 
classes,  but  are  not  required  to  pay  the  application 
fee. 

Special  Student:  A  handicapped  student  who  cannot 
meet  some  of  the  requirements  in  certain  shop 
programs  is  awarded  a  special  certificate.  It  is  not 
awarded  to  a  student  who  may  have  failed  to  meet 
the  requirements  of  a  certificate  program.  Students 
must  notify  the  College-PRIOR  TO  BEGINNING  A 
PROGRAM  — if  they  want  to  complete  only  part  of 
the  program  and  earn  a  special  certificate.  Exceptions 
will  be  made  only  for  a  student  who  becomes 
handicapped  while  enrolled  in  a  certificate  program. 

Students  age  18  or  older  who  do  not  have  a  high 
school  diploma  or  the  equivalent  may  also  be 
classified  as  "special  students.". 

Satisfactory  Progress:  As  long  as  a  postsecondary 
student  is  officially  enrolled  and  officially  permitted 
to  continue  his/her  studies  toward  a  degree  or 
certificate  at  the  College,  the  student  will  be 
considered  to  be  making  satisfactory  progress. 
Students  receiving  financial  aid  must  meet  additional 
criteria  as  explained  in  the  Financial  Aid  section  of 
this  catalog  (page  10)  in  order  to  continue  to  be 
eligible  to  receive  financial  aid. 

Scheduling/Registration 

Because  the  number  of  students  who  can  register  for 
any  class  is  limited,  all  students  should  schedule 
classes  during  the  announced  scheduling  period.  The 


ACADEMIC  INFORMATION-127 


College  strongly  urges  all  students  to  complete  their 
registration,  including  payment  of  all  fees,  before  the 
announced  day  of  Late  Registration  for  each 
semester.  On  the  day  of  Late  Registration  students 
may  schedule  classes  on  a  first-come/first-served 
basis.  The  College  does  not  guarantee  any  student 
the  right  to  register  after  Late  Registration  day. 

Credit  Load 

The  academic  year  is  divided  into  two  semesters  of 
approximately  16  weeks  each.  The  normal  full-time 
load  per  semester  is  12  to  18  credit-hours.  Students 
should  allow  an  average  of  at  least  two  hours 
preparation  for  each  credit-hour  of  course  work. 

There  are  two  sessions  of  varying  length  offered 
during  the  summer  (May-August).  For  purposes  of 
enrollment  verification  a  student  is  considered  to  be 
enrolled  full-time  during  the  summer  if  his/her  credit 
load  totals  12  or  more  credits  during  both  summer 
sessions. 

Academic  Overload 

An  academic/credit  overload  occurs  when  a  student 
enrolls  for  more  than  18  credits  per  semester  (except 
for  students  in  programs  which  require  more  than  18 
credits  per  semester).  In  a  summer  session,  an 
academic  overload  occurs  when  a  student  enrolls  in 
more  than  6  credits  at  the  same  time. 

Students  who  want  to  schedule  a  credit  overload 
must  obtain  permission  from  the  Division  Director  of 
the  program  in  which  they  are  enrolled. 

A  student  must  have  earned  a  3.00  cumulative  grade 
point  average  or  a  3.00  average  the  previous 
semester  in  order  to  qualify  to  schedule  a  credit 
overload.  Exceptions  must  be  approved  by  the  Dean 
of  Academic  Affairs  or  his/her  designee. 

Change  of  Course 

After  the  official  registration  period  is  over,  the 
student  may  make  adjustments  in  his/her  schedule 
through  the  process  of  adding  and/or  dropping 
courses. 

Dropping  a  Course:  A  student  may  drop  a  credit 
course  during  the  first  three  weeks  — or  the  first  20 
percent  of  instruction  — of  the  term  by  having  his/her 
advisor  complete  the  appropriate  section  of  a 
"Student  Status  Change"  form.  The  instructor  of  the 
course  being  dropped  and  the  advisor  must  sign  the 
form.  The  course  will  not  appear  on  the  student's 
academic  record.  After  the  third  week  (or  equivalent) 
the  student  must  withdraw  from  the  course.  (See 
Terminations,  Withdrawals  and  Refunds,  page  132.) 

Adding  a  Course:  A  student  may  add  a  course  during 
the  first  week  of  classes  (two  days  in  Summer  Term) 
by  having  his/her  advisor  complete  and  sign  the 
appropriate  portion  of  a  "Student  Status  Change" 
form. 


The  approval  of  the  appropriate  Division  Director  and 
the  Associate  Dean  must  be  obtained  if  a  course  is 
added  after  the  first  week  of  classes. 

Developmental  courses  and  any  related  course  work 
required  may  be  dropped  or  added  until  the  end  of 
the  third  week  of  classes. 

The  Dean  of  Academic  Affairs  or  his/her  designee 
may  make  exceptions  in  special  circumstances. 

Change  of  Program 

A  change  of  program  may  be  made  at  the  beginning 
of  any  semester.  Currently  enrolled  students  who 
wish  to  change  from  one  program  of  study  to 
another  must  follow  the  steps  below. 

1.  Complete  an  "Admission  Application"  and  submit 
it  to  the  Admissions  Office.  Acceptance  into  the 
new  program  will  be  based  on  sponsorship  status 
and  on  the  date  the  applicant's  file  is  complete  in 
the  Admissions  Office. 

2.  Complete  a  "Curriculum/Program  Change"  form 
and  obtain  all  required  signatures.  Submit  the  form 
to  the  Student  Records  Office. 

When  a  student  changes  his/her  program,  all  credits 
earned  in  the  prior  program  will  be  evaluated  for 
transfer  to  the  new  program.  All  courses  will  appear 
on  the  student's  transcript.  Only  courses  applicable 
to  the  new  program  will  be  used  to  calculate  the 
student's  new  cumulative  grade  point  average. 

Repeating  a  "D"  or  "F"  Course 

Students  may  repeat  a  course  in  which  they  earned  a 
grade  of  "D"  or  "F".  However,  they  must  improve  the 
grade  of  the  repeated  course  to  affect  their 
cumulative  grade  point  average.  If  the  student 
repeats  the  course  at  The  Williamsport  Area 
Community  College  and  improves  his/her  grade,  both 
grades  will  appear  on  the  permanent  record  card 
with  the  higher  grade  used  in  calculating  the 
cumulative  grade  point  average.  If  the  student 
repeats  the  equivalent  course  at  another  institution 
and  transfers  the  course  to  the  College  (subject  to 
Transfer  Policy,  see  page  5),  the  original  grade 
remains  on  the  transcript  but  is  not  included  in  the 
semester  or  cumulative  average.  (The  credits  for  the 
transferred  course  will  not  be  used  in  calculating  the 
student's  cumulative  grade  point  average.)  If  the 
student  repeats  a  course  and  earns  a  second  "D"  or 
"F",  the  second  grade  and  credits  will  not  be  used  in 
calculating  the  cumulative  grade  point  average. 

Auditing  a  Course 

Auditors  are  not  required  to  prepare  lessons  or  papers 
or  take  examinations,  nor  do  they  receive  credit  for 
the  course.  Students  are  charged  full  tuition  for 
courses  taken  on  an  audit  basis. 


128-ACADEMIC  INFORMATION 


With  the  consent  of  the  instructor  and  the  Dean  of 
Academic  Affairs,  a  student  may  enroll  as  an  auditor 
in  any  course. 

Students  must  inform  the  Student  Records  Office 
that  a  course  is  being  taken  on  an  audit  basis  when 
they  schedule.  A  student  may  not  change  from  credit 
to  audit  status  or  from  audit  to  credit  status  after  the 
beginning  of  the  semester. 

Grading  System 

The  College  uses  the  following  system  of  grading 
(4.00  basis)  to  indicate  the  quality  of  a  student's 
work:

Satisfactory  Progress 

— 

An  instructor  may  assign  an  "I",  Incomplete,  grade  to 
give  a  student  additional  time  to  complete  required 
course  work  if  the  student  has  missed  an  exceptional 
number  of  classes  due  to  accident,  illness  or  other 
extenuating  circumstances.  An  Incomplete  will  not  be 
used  to  extend  the  time  a  student  has  to  complete 
class  requirements  beyond  the  normal  allotted  time. 

If  a  student  is  awarded  a  letter  grade  of  "I",  the 
instructor  will  submit  an  incomplete  grade  form  with 
the  student's  grade  roster.  The  form  describes  the 
work  which  must  be  completed  and  gives  a  deadline 
for  completing  the  work.  The  deadline  date  will  be 
before  the  end  of  the  following  semester.  Copies  of 
the  incomplete  grade  form  will  be  sent  to  the  student 
and  his/her  advisor.  A  permanent  "F"  will  be 
recorded  if  the  work  is  not  completed  prior  to  the 
end  of  the  following  semester. 

"SP",  Satisfactory  Progress,  is  used  for  certain 
students  in  Developmental  Studies  courses.  "SP", 
Satisfactory  Progress,  will  be  awarded  if  students  do 
not  complete  all  course  requirements  but  do  meet 
the  requirements  for  "SP"  as  established  in  the 
syllabus  for  a  particular  developmental  course. 
Students  earning  an  "SP"  will  reenroll  in  the  same 
course.  Upon  mastery  of  all  course  objectives,  the 
student  will  earn  a  traditional  letter  grade  (in  the 
semester  in  which  the  course  requirements  were 
met). 


Grade  Reports 

At  the  midpoint  of  each  fall  and  spring  semester 
course  a  grade  of  "P"  (Passing),  "D"  (Deficient),  or 
"F"  (Failing)  is  reported  for  each  student  officially 
registered  in  each  course.  Each  grade  is  advisory 
only,  indicating  the  quality  of  work  up  to  that  point  in 
the  semester.  Mid-term  advisory  grades  do  not 
become  part  of  the  student's  permanent  record.  Final 
semester  grades  will  be  mailed  after  the  end  of  the 
semester  or  summer  session.  The  grade  report  will 
show  all  course  work  completed  to  date  by  the 
student.  Students  should  check  the  cumulative  grade 
report  for  accuracy  and  to  be  certain  they  are 
meeting  graduation  requirements.  To  protect  the 
confidentiality  of  the  student's  record  and  in 
compliance  with  federal  law,  no  grades  will  be  given 
over  the  phone. 

Since  the  grade  report  is  also  an  unofficial  copy  of 
their  transcript,  students  may  use  their  grade  report 
when  an  unofficial  transcript  is  required.  (For 
information  on  obtaining  official  transcripts,  see  page 
9). 

Cumulative  Grade  Point  Average 

A  student's  cumulative  grade  point  average  is 
computed  by  dividing  the  number  of  grade  points  by 
the  total  number  of  credits  for  which  the  student  has 
earned  a  grade  of  A,  B,  C,  D,  F,  or  WF.  No  other 
grades  in  the  College's  grading  system  are  used  in 
the  calculation. 

The  cumulative  grade  point  average  includes:  1) 
Credit  for  Williamsport  Area  Community  College 
courses  completed  by  a  student  currently  enrolled  in 
a  degree  or  certificate  program;  2)  Credit  for 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College  courses 
previously  completed  by  a  student  who  reenrolls  in 
the  same  program  when  such  credits  are  appropriate 
for  the  new  program;  3)  Credit  for  Williamsport  Area 
Community  College  courses  previously  completed  by 
a  student  who  reenrolls  in  a  different  program  when 
such  courses  are  appropriate  for  the  new  program;  4) 
Credit  for  Williamsport  Area  Community  College 
courses  previously  completed  by  a  student  who 
changes  to  a  different  program  when  such  credits  are 
appropriate  for  the  new  program;  5)  Credit  earned 
through  cross-registration  with  Lycoming  College. 

The  cumulative  grade  point  average  does  not  include 
credits  from  the  following:  1)  CLEP  exams;  2) 
Advanced  Placement;  3)  Credit  by  Exam;  4)  Credit 
for  Work/Life  Experience;  5)  U.S.  Armed  Forces 
Institute  Credit  and  Service  Credit;  6)  Credit 
transferred  to  The  Williamsport  Area  Community 
College  from  another  institution;  7)  Credits  previously 
earned  by  a  student  who  changes  to  a  different 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College  program  or 
who  reenrolls  in  a  program  when  such  credit  does 
not  meet  the  current  requirements  for  the  new 
program;  8)  Credits  for  courses  in  which  the  student 


earned  a  "D"  or  "F"  if  the  student  repeats  the 
course.  If  the  student  repeats  the  course  at  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College  and  earns  a 
higher  grade,  the  higher  grade  will  be  used  in 
calculating  the  cumulative  grade  point  average.  If  the 
student  repeats  the  equivalent  course  at  another 
institution  and  transfers  the  course  to  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College,  the  original 
grade  remains  on  the  transcript  but  is  not  included  in 
the  cumulative  average.  (The  grade  for  the 
transferred  course  is  not  included  in  the  cumulative 
grade  point  average.) 

Withholding  Grades 

A  student's  grades  and  records  will  not  be  released  if 
the  student  has  any  outstanding  loans  or  fines  (for 
example,  parking  fines  or  library  fines)  at  the  College 
or  if  the  student  has  outstanding  obligations  to  the 
College  for  the  return/replacement  of  items  such  as 
books,  tools  or  equipment.  When  a  hold  is  placed  on 
a  student's  grades,  the  student  will  be  notified  in 
writing  of  the  hold  and  of  the  action  needed  to 
release  his/her  grades  or  records. 

Advanced  Placement  Credit 

The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  believes 
that  placing  students  at  the  proper  educational  level 
will  contribute  to  the  student's  success  in  College. 

Advanced  placement  is  designed  to  give  students 
credit  for  the  skills  or  competencies  they  have 
acquired  prior  to  entering  College.  Students  who  have 
completed  advanced  courses  in  high  school,  in  an 
area  vocational  technical  school  program,  or  as  part 
of  military  training,  and  those  with  prior  educational 
experiences  may  be  eligible  for  advanced  placement. 
We  recommend  that  applications  for  advanced 
placement  be  submitted  by  March  15  for  students 
who  plan  to  enroll  in  the  fall  semester,  by  November 
15  for  students  who  plan  to  enroll  in  the  spring 
semester,  and  by  April  15  for  students  who  plan  to 
enroll  in  the  summer  semester. 

Students  from  area  vocational  technical  schools  with 
which  the  College  has  Task  Level  Articulation 
Agreements  can  obtain  advanced  placement  on  the 
basis  of  an  instructor-verified  list  of  competencies. 
Such  students  must  also  take  the  College's  reading, 
English  and  math  placement  tests  as  early  as 
possible  so  that  they  can  take  developmental 
courses,  if  needed,  in  the  summer  before  they  begin 
their  regular  program. 

New  students  will  receive  a  schedule  of  advanced 
placement  test  offerings  showing  the  date  and  times 
when  tests  will  be  given.  The  student  should  indicate 
which  test(s)  he/she  wishes  to  take  and  return  the 
form  to  the  appropriate  Division  office. 

A  copy  of  the  evaluation  of  the  advanced  placement 
test  or  other  assessment  will  be  sent  to  the  student. 


ACADEMIC  INFORMATION     129 


A  fee  of  $25  per  course  will  be  charged  when  credit 
from  advanced  placement  testing  is  entered  on  the 
transcript.*  Credit  earned  through  advanced 
placement  will  be  shown  on  the  student's  transcript 
after  the  fee  is  paid  and  the  student  has  successfully 
completed  one  semester  at  the  College.  Up  to  a 
maximum  of  30  credits  may  be  granted  through  non- 
traditional  credit  evaluation  (advanced  placement, 
credit  by  exam,  and  work/life  experience).  Advanced 
placement  credit  is  not  used  in  calculating  the 
student's  cumulative  grade  point  average.  Only  the 
course  number,  title,  and  number  of  credits  will  be 
entered  on  the  transcript.  No  letter  grades  will  be 
shown. 

*The  $25  fee  will  not  be  charged  for  secondary 
students  assessed  externally  and  for  certain 
developmental  courses  which  are  exempt. 

Credit  By  Exam 

Students  may  apply  to  take  any  College  course  by 
examination.  In  order  to  challenge  a  course  by 
examination,  a  student  must  have  completed  at  least 
12  credits  at  The  Williamsport  Area  Community 
College  and  have  earned  a  grade  point  average  of 
2.00.  Application  to  take  a  course  by  examination 
must  be  made  in  writing  to  the  appropriate  Division 
Director.  Approval  must  then  be  given  by  the 
instructor(s)  of  the  course  involved  and  the  Division 
Director.  Students  who  decide  to  challenge  a  course 
after  enrolling  in  it  must  arrange  for  testing  to  take 
place  prior  to  the  third  week  of  instruction  (or  the 
equivalent). 

If  approval  is  granted,  a  fee  of  $25  must  be  paid  at 
the  Bursar's  Office  prior  to  each  examination.  No 
examination  will  be  prepared  or  administered  until  the 
student  presents  the  $25  receipt.  The  examination 
fee  will  be  waived  for  students  seeking  credit  for  ENL 
111  (English  Composition  I)  or  RDG  111  (College 
Reading,  Reasoning  and  Study  Skills)  as  a  result  of 
outstanding  performance  in  the  respective 
developmental  counterpart,  i.e.,  ENL  011  (Basic 
English)  or  RDG  010  (Reading  Improvement). 

The  examination  is  prepared,  administered  (at  the 
time  set  by  the  Division  Director),  and  evaluated  by 
the  instructor(s)  of  the  course.  A  copy  of  the  result 
of  the  examination  will  be  sent  to  the  student.  When 
a  student  passes  the  examination  for  the  course,  the 
course  number,  title,  and  number  of  credits  only  will 
be  entered  on  the  student's  transcript.  (No  letter 
grades  will  be  listed  on  the  transcript.)  A  maximum 
of  30  credits  may  be  earned  through  non-traditional 
credit  evaluation  (work  and/or  life  experience, 
advanced  placement,  credit  by  exam).  Credit  by  exam 
may  not  be  used  to  remove  a  D,  F,  or  WF  grade.  An 
examination  in  a  specific  subject  may  be  taken  only 
once.  All  exceptions  to  the  above  requirements  must 
be  approved  by  the  Dean  of  Academic  Affairs  or 
his/her  designee. 


130-ACADEMIC  INFORMATION 


Credit  for  Work  and/or  Life  Experience 

The  College  recognizes  that  many  individuals  acquire 
rich  academic  and  technical  experiences  through 
working  and/or  living  in  a  particular  situation. 
Students  who  have  been  accepted  to  the  College  and 
who  feel  their  work  or  living  experiences  warrant 
consideration  for  academic  credit  should  apply  in 
writing  to  the  Division  Director  responsible  for  the 
course(s)  involved.  The  application  must  include 
evidence  and  rationale  for  granting  credit. 

The  Division  Director  will  appoint  a  committee  to 
assess  the  candidate's  educational  and  work 
background.  The  student  will  be  asked  to  document 
his/her  work  and  life  experiences  and  to  show  that 
the  experiences  are  equal  to  a  course(s)  offered  at 
the  College.  The  committee  will  also  interview  the 
student.  The  committee  will  recommend  the  number 
of  credits  to  be  awarded.  A  fee  of  $25  per  course 
will  be  charged  for  the  evaluation  of  credit. 

A  copy  of  the  evaluation  of  work  and/or  life 
experience  will  be  sent  to  the  student.  Credit  earned 
through  work/life  experience  will  be  shown  on  the 
student's  transcript  after  he/she  earns  12  credits  at 
the  College.  Credit  for  work/life  experience  will  not 
be  used  in  calculating  the  student's  cumulative  grade 
point  average.  No  letter  grade  will  be  listed  on  the 
student's  transcript.  Up  to  a  maximum  of  30  credits 
may  be  earned  through  non-traditional  credit 
evaluation  (work  and/or  life  experience,  advanced 
placement,  credit  by  exam).  All  exceptions  to  the 
above  requirements  must  be  approved  by  the  Dean  of 
Academic  Affairs  or  his/her  designee. 

Cooperative  Education 

Cooperative  Education  (co-op)  offers  students  the 
opportunity  to  participate  in  supervised  periods  of 
relevant  and  meaningful  employment.  While  on  co-op 
assignment,  students  work  as  regular  employees  of 
the  co-op  employer,  receive  vocational  counseling, 
and  earn  academic  credit  for  knowledge  and/or  skills 
acquired  from  their  work  experience.  Co-op  may  be 
used  to  replace  or  supplement  required  courses  in 
most  programs. 

The  following  options  are  available  to  qualified 
students  in  most  programs: 

1.  Alternating  Plan:  Students  rotate  periods  of  full- 
time  work  and  full-time  on-campus  study. 

2.  Parallel  Plan:  Students  work  part  time  and  attend 
regular  classes  during  the  same  semester  or 
summer  session. 

3.  Summer  Plan:  Students  work  full  time  during  a 
summer  session  followed  by  a  parallel  plan  co-op 
during  the  following  semesters. 


4.  Career  Advancement  Plan:  Students  attend  college 
on  a  part-time  basis  while  working  either  full  or 
part  time  at  their  regular  (not  a  "co-op")  job. 
Designed  for  employed  students. 

5.  APCO  (Advanced  Placement  with  the  Co-op 
Option):  Students  who  have  completed  a  related 
vo-tech  program  receive  advanced  placement  and 
are  encouraged  to  participate  in  part  or  full-time 
co-op  while  attending  college. 

Variations  of  the  above  options  are  possible, 
depending  upon  job  and  College  requirements.  Co-op 
placements  can  range  from  eight  weeks  to  a  full 
semester  or  summer  of  15-16  weeks. 

In  order  to  participate  in  Cooperative  Education,  a 
student  must  have  successfully  completed  a 
minimum  of  one  full  semester  (12  credits)  or  its 
equivalent  and  must  maintain  a  cumulative  average 
of  2.00  or  better.  (A  2.50  average  in  courses  related 
to  the  student's  program  is  recommended.) 

The  Dean  of  Academic  Affairs  or  his/her  designee 
may  waive  these  requirements  in  the  following 
situations: 

1.  If  the  College  determines  that  the  student  has 
acquired  competencies  — through  previous  training 
and/or  experience  — which  are  equivalent  to  those 
provided  during  one  full  semester  of  instruction  at 
the  College. 

2.  When  the  student's  cumulative  average  falls  below 
the  level  required  and/or  recommended  due  to 
special  circumstances. 

A  student  who  is  unable  to  meet  and  maintain  either 
the  behavioral  or  performance  standards  established 
for  co-op  employment  may,  with  just  cause,  be 
withdrawn  from  co-op  employment  by  either  the 
employer  or  the  College. 

A  student  may  withdraw  or  be  withdrawn  from  co-op 
employment  without  penalty  if  — for  any  well-founded 
reason— the  work  site  is  deemed  to  be  unsafe  or  if 
the  level  of  work  assigned  does  not  meet  the 
learning  objectives  established  by  the  student  and 
the  College. 

Employer  Participation 

Employers  who  can  provide  full-time  or  part-time 
positions  which  meet  the  following  qualifications  are 
encouraged  to  participate  in  the  co-op  program: 

1.  The  job  must  provide  educational  experiences  in 
an  area  directly  related  to  the  student's  course  of 
study  or  career  goals. 

2.  The  job  must  provide  learning  experiences  that  will 
be  meaningful  and  challenging  for  the  student. 


ACADEMIC  INFORMATION-131 


3.  The  job  should  be  relatively  secure  in  order  to 
provide  at  least  one  or  more  full  co-op  work  terms. 

4.  The  employer  will  cooperate  with  the  College  and 
the  student  in  developing  specific  learning 
objectives  for  each  work  period. 

5.  The  employer  will  enter  into  a  training  agreement 
with  the  College  and  the  student. 

6.  At  the  end  of  the  work  experience,  the  employer 
agrees  to  evaluate  the  student's  performance  and 
progress  toward  meeting  specific  learning 
objectives. 

Specific  information  can  be  obtained  directly  from 
the  student's  academic  division  or  by  contacting:

courses  at  Lycoming  College,  a  Williamsport  Area 
Community  College  student  must  obtain  the 
permission  of  his/her  advisor  and  division  director, 
the  Dean  of  Academic  Affairs  and  the  academic  dean 
at  Lycoming  College.  In  order  to  participate  in  this 
program,  students  must: 

1.  be  enrolled  on  a  full-time  basis  in  a  degree  or 
certificate  program. 

2.  have  completed  at  least  12  credits  at  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College.

2.00  or  better. 

During  the  fall  and  spring  semesters,  students  may 
register  for  two  courses  or  one-half  of  their  total 
semester  credits  (whichever  is  greater)  through  cross- 
registration.  During  any  summer  session,  students 
participating  in  cross-registration  must  register  for  at 
least  three  credits  at  The  Williamsport  Area 
Community  College  and  may  register  for  only  one 
cross-registration  course. 

Students  may  cross-register  only  for  courses  not 
offered  at  The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College 
or  for  courses  unavailable  before  the  student's 
scheduled  date  of  graduation.  Students  participating 
in  cross-registration  will  be  responsible  for  paying  any 
special  laboratory  fees  or  charges  required  for  the 


course.  Grades  earned  through  participation  in  cross- 
registration  will  be  recorded  on  the  student's 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College  transcript. 
Courses  completed  with  a  passing  grade  ("D"  or 
better)  will  be  credited  toward  graduation.  Grades 
earned  in  courses  taken  at  Lycoming  College  will  be 
included  in  the  student's  semester  and  cumulative 
average.  Students  who  cross-register  are  responsible 
for  complying  with  the  academic  calendar  of  the 
institution  offering  the  course(s)  they  take.  Cross- 
registration  students  should  inform  their  advisors  of 
any  difficulties  with,  or  plans  to  drop  Lycoming 
College  courses.  Students  may  obtain  additional 
information  on  cross-registration  procedures  from 
their  advisors  or  the  Student  Records  Office.  All 
exceptions  to  the  above  requirements  must  be 
approved  by  the  Dean  of  Academic  Affairs  or  his/her 
designee.

ACADEMIC  INFORMATION     133 


Students  who  do  not  officially  terminate  from  the 
College  in  the  manner  described  above  will  receive 
the  grade  of  "F"  or  "WF"  in  all  courses. 

College  Termination 

The  College  reserves  the  right  to  terminate 
enrollment  of  any  student  or  to  withhold  the  degree 
of  any  student,  if,  in  the  opinion  of  College 
authorities,  his/her  further  association  is  not  in  the 
best  interests  of  the  student  or  the  College.  Specific 
situations  in  which  the  College  may  terminate  a 
student  include,  but  are  not  limited  to: 

1.  Failure  to  meet  financial  obligations. 

2.  Failure  to  meet  requirements  or  to  complete 
objectives  in  a  given  program  and/or  course. 

3.  Failure  to  demonstrate  safe  practices. 

Recommended  procedures  for  appealing  questions  on 
academic  evaluation  are  given  in  the  Student 
Handbook. 

Withdrawal/Termination  From  A  Course 

Student  Withdrawal  —  After  the  official  drop/add 
period  for  the  term  {the  end  of  the  third  week  or  20 
percent  of  instruction)  until  the  end  of  the  tenth 
week,  or  equivalent,  for  each  term,  a  student  may 
withdraw  from  a  College  course  with  a  grade  of  "W" 
(unless  the  student  is  withdrawn  from  the  course  by 
the  College  for  absenteeism  — in  which  case  the 
student  will  receive  a  grade  of  "WF"). 

If  a  student  withdraws  from  a  course  after  the  tenth 
week  (or  equivalent),  the  instructor,  with  the  approval 
of  the  appropriate  Division  Director,  will  award  a 
grade  of  "WP"  or  "WF."  No  credit  is  given  for  a 
"WP"  grade.  A  "WF"  grade  affects  the  student's 
grade  point  average  in  the  same  manner  as  an  "F".  If 
a  student  stops  attending  a  class  without  officially 
withdrawing  from  the  course,  the  student  will  receive 
a  grade  of  "WF"  or  "F."  Students  may  withdraw 
from  courses  until  the  last  day  of  classes. 

Students  must  complete  and  submit  a  "Student 
Status  Change"  form  to  withdraw  from  a  course. 

College  Initiated  Termination  —  When  an  instructor 
determines  that  a  student  is  not  adequately  meeting 
course  objectives  and  has  missed  more  than  the 
equivalent  of  the  class  hours  in  one  week  of 
instruction,  the  instructor  MAY  recommend  that  the 
student  be  withdrawn  from  the  class  by  the  College. 
The  College  will  withdraw  a  student  from  a  course 
for  excessive  absences  only  after  the  first  three 
weeks  (or  20  percent  of  instruction).  A  grade  of 
"WF"  will  be  recorded  on  the  student's  transcript. 

Refunds 

Charges  for  tuition,  activity  fees  and  service  fees  are 
refundable  upon  official  withdrawal/termination  from 
the  College.  Application  fees  are  not  refundable.  A 


"Request  for  Refund"  form  can  be  obtained  from  the 
Bursar's  Office.  In  order  to  obtain  a  refund,  the 
"Request  for  Refund"  form  and  the  necessary 
"Student  Status  Change"  form(s)  must  be  submitted 
at  the  same  time. 

Refunds  of  tuition  and  fees  will  be  made  according 
to  the  following  schedule  for  fall  and  spring 
semesters: 

Prior  to  the  first  day  of  classes  100%  Refund 

First  day  through  third  week  70%  Refund 

After  third  week  of  classes  No  Refund 

Refunds  will  be  made  according  to  the  following 
schedule  for  the  summer  semesters  and  for  courses 
that  do  not  meet  for  the  entire  semester  (for 
example,  some  weekend  college  classes  and  "mini- 
courses,"  eight-week  courses,  etc.). 

Prior  to  the  first  day  of  classes  100%  Refund 

First  day  through  20%  of  total  70%  Refund 

instructional  hours 

After  20%  of  total  instructional  hours  No  Refund

On  admission  to  The  Williamsport  Area  Community 
College  you  accept  unqualified  commitment  to 
conduct  yourself  at  all  times,  both  on  and  off  the 
campus,  in  a  responsible  manner  which  conforms 
with  the  generally  accepted  standard  of  adult 
behavior.  It  is  expected  that  you  will  show  courtesy 
and  respect  for  the  administrative  officers,  faculty, 
and  employees  in  your  personal  contacts.  You  must 
also  understand  and  accept  the  necessity  for  various 
College  regulations  and  comply  with  the  directives  of 
those  authorized  to  enforce  the  regulations.  If  you 
conduct  yourself  in  a  manner  contrary  to  the  best 
interests  of  the  College  you  will  be  subject  to  such 
penalties  as  the  circumstances  justify,  including 
suspension  or  expulsion.  Additional  information 
regarding  student  conduct  on  campus  and  student 
judicial  procedures  is  available  in  the  Student 
Handbook.  All  students  are  expected  to  read  and 
follow  the  policies  in  the  handbook. 

A  student  may  be  suspended  or  dismissed  for 
improper  conduct,  failure  to  comply  with  College 
regulations,  academic  dishonesty,  habitual  absences, 
lack  of  effort  and  interest,  possession  of,  or  being 
under  the  influence  of  alcoholic  beverages  or  illegal 
drugs,  or  under  other  circumstances  as  determined 
by  the  Board  of  Trustees. 

If  all  cases  where  academic  dishonesty  is 
established,  the  student  may  be  dropped  from  the 
course  with  a  grade  of  "F".  For  a  second  offense,  the 
student  may  be  dismissed  from  the  College.  In  a  case 
involving  a  question  of  academic  dishonesty,  the 
professor  in  whose  class  the  incident  is  alleged  to 
have  occurred  will  consult  with  the  appropriate 
Division  Director  regarding  disciplinary  action. 

Attendance  Policy 

1.  Regular  and  prompt  attendance  at  all  classes  and 
at  scheduled  conferences  with  instructors  is 
expected  of  all  students.  All  work  missed  because 
of  absence,  regardless  of  the  cause,  must  be  made 
up  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  instructor.  Students 
who  know  that  they  will  be  absent  are  expected 
to  get  assignments  from  instructors  in  advance  so 
that  the  necessary  work  will  be  completed  before 
the  student  leaves,  or  immediately  upon  his/her 
return.  This  applies  to  absences  for  College 
activity  trips  as  well  as  absences  for  other 
reasons.  In  all  cases  of  anticipated  absence, 
students  should  confer  with  their  instructors  in 
advance  whenever  possible. 


2.  All  faculty  are  required  to  record  attendance  daily. 

3.  When  a  student,  in  the  instructor's  judgment,  is 
not  adequately  meeting  the  course  objectives  and 
has  missed  more  than  the  equivalent  of  the  class 
hours  held  in  one  week  of  instruction,  the 
instructor  MAY  recommend  the  student  be 
withdrawn  from  class  by  the  College. 

If,  in  the  judgment  of  the  instructor,  extenuating 
circumstances  are  involved  (e.g.,  a  death  in  the 
family,  hospitalization,  illness,  or  serious  accident), 
the  following  alternatives  are  available  to  the  student. 

a.  To  arrange  with  the  instructor's  approval  a 
stated  plan  for  meeting  course  objectives  and 
responsibilities.  If  completion  of  the  approved 
plan  extends  beyond  the  semester,  the  student 
can  receive  an  "I"  grade  (Incomplete). 

b.  Until  the  end  of  the  tenth  week,  or  equivalent, 
of  each  term,  the  student  can  withdraw  and 
receive  a  "W"  grade  (Withdrawn). 

4.  Based  upon  the  instructor's  recommendation,  a 
decision  to  withdraw  a  student  from  a  course  MAY 
be  made  by  the  appropriate  Division  Director. 
Withdrawal  from  a  course  by  the  College  for 
excessive  absences  will  only  be  done  after  the  first 
three  weeks  of  each  term  or  20  percent  of 
instruction  and  will  be  recorded  on  the  student's 
transcript  as  a  "WF"  (Withdrawn  Failing). 

5.  Appeal  Process:  Students  who  are  withdrawn  from 
a  course  by  the  College  may  appeal  the  decision 
within  three  school  days  of  notification. 

The  student  may  appeal  the  decision  to  either  the 
Dean  of  Academic  Affairs  OR  the  Ad  Hoc 
Academic  Policy  Group  consisting  of  the  Dean  of 
Academic  Affairs,  President  of  the  Student 
Government  Association,  and  Chairperson  of  the 
Academic  Standards  and  Policy  Committee. 

Academic  Probation 

Any  degree  or  certificate  candidate  whose 
cumulative  grade  point  average  is  below  2.00  will  be 
placed  on  academic  probation.  A  student  on 
probation  may  be  required  to  report  to  the 
Advisement  and  Career  Services  Center  for  special 
counseling  before  registering  for  classes  the  following 
semester. 

A  student  may  be  terminated  from  the  College  if 
his/her  cumulative  grade  point  average  is  under  1.50 
at  the  end  of  the  first  semester's  work,  under  1.80  at 
the  end  of  the  second  semester's  work,  or  under 
1.90  at  the  end  of  the  third  semester  of  work.  (A 
semester's  work  is  generally  defined  as  the  courses 
listed  for  a  semester  in  a  given  program,  or  15  credits 
of  course  work.)  The  Probation  Committee  will 
determine  the  semester  status  in  special  situations. 


ACADEMIC  INFORMATION-135 


The  Probation  Committee  meets  at  the  end  of  each 
term.  The  Committee  determines  the  conditions 
under  which  students  with  grade  point  averages 
below  2.00  will  be  permitted  to  continue  at  the 
College.  The  Committee  may  also  terminate  students. 
Students  who  are  terminated  may  appeal  the  action 
to  the  Chairperson  of  the  Probation  Committee  or 
his/her  designee. 

Final  Examinations 

Final  examinations  may  be  scheduled  by  instructors 
at  the  end  of  each  semester.  A  student  who  is 
absent  from  a  final  examination  without  good  reason 
is  subject  to  a  failing  grade. 

Developmental  Studies  Program 

The  open  admissions  policy  of  The  Williamsport  Area 
Community  College  permits  most  students  to  enroll 
in  the  programs  of  their  choice.  However,  all  entering 
students  must  exhibit  competencies  in  the  basic 
skills  (reading,  mathematics,  and  written  expression) 
necessary  for  success  in  their  programs.  Students 
who  have  not  demonstrated  these  skills  on  the 
college  placement  tests  must  take  specific 
developmental  courses  before  enrolling  in  other  math 
and  English  courses  required  for  a  degree  or 
certificate  from  The  Williamsport  Area  Community 
College. 

The  College  will  award  institutional  credit  for 
developmental  studies  courses  (courses  numbered 
001-099)  and  the  grades  earned  in  those  courses  will 
be  included  in  the  student's  grade  point  average. 
Three  developmental  courses-RDG  111,  CHD  100, 
and  CHD  101— carry  elective  credit  and  may  be  used 
to  fulfill  a  general  elective  requirement. 
Developmental  courses  with  institutional  credit  may 
not  replace  any  course  requirement  or  elective. 

The  Developmental  Studies  program  is  designed  to 
serve  a  variety  of  students: 

—  those  who  lack  academic  skills  and  requirements 
for  the  curriculum  of  their  choice 

—  the  "non-traditional"  student 

—  unemployed  adults 

—  adults  returning  to  school  after  a  number  of  years 
of  absence 

—  high  school  dropouts 

—  veterans 

—  those  students  referred  to  the  program  by 
instructors  who  recognize  a  need  for  one  or  more 
of  the  program's  services 

—  those  who  require  assistance  and  solicit  the 
program  services  on  a  "walk-in"  basis. 

The  program  consists  of  courses  in  math,  reading, 
English,  personal  development  and  decision-making. 


Students  may  enter  the  entire  program  or  part  of  it 
as  the  result  of  counseling,  placement  tests, 
academic  record,  or  personal  choice.  While  in  the 
program,  most  students  will  also  take  courses  in  their 
curriculum.  One  strength  of  the  program  is  the 
frequent  contact  with  staff  who  assist  the  student 
with  course  selection,  problem  solving,  decision 
making,  career  planning. 

Classwork  is  designed  to  promote  a  successful 
teaching-learning  atmosphere.  Varied  learning 
strategies,  individualized  and  self-paced  instruction, 
small  group  sessions,  tutorial  and  media  support  are 
characteristic  of  the  course  work. 

College  Opportunity  Programming  (COPing) 

This  program,  funded  under  the  Equal  Education 
Opportunity  legislation,  Act  101,  serves  students  who 
are  academically  and  financially  disadvantaged. 
COPing  students  are  chosen  on  the  basis  of  their 
academic  potential,  motivation  and  aspirations. 
Students  receive  counseling  and  tutoring  assistance 
as  part  of  the  COPing  program. 

The  COPing  Program  also  includes  a  four-week 
summer  orientation.  Students  are  in  classes  for  two 
weeks,  studying  reading,  math  and  English,  and  in 
shops  and  labs  for  two  weeks,  acquiring  "hands-on" 
experience.  During  the  four-week  program,  students 
learn  about  the  campus,  the  College,  the  staff,  the 
faculty,  and  each  other.  This  pre-college  session 
makes  the  first  semester  easier  and  more  meaningful 
for  students.

of  educational  opportunities  and  services  that 
complement  the  College's  traditional  degree  and 
certificate  programming. 

Designed  primarily  to  meet  the  educational  needs  of 
adults,  the  Center  for  Lifelong  Education  offers 
hundreds  of  vocational,  avocational,  and  personal 
enrichment  courses  throughout  the  year.  These

throughout  the  College's  service  area. 

Most  of  the  courses  offered  through  the  Center  for 
Lifelong  Education  are  non-credit.  They  do  not 
involve  formal  testing,  do  not  offer  grades,  and  may 
not  be  used  to  fulfill  requirements  in  any  of  the 
College's  credit  programs.  They  do  offer  students  the 
opportunity  to  learn  new  skills,  upgrade  existing 
capabilities,  develop  increased  knowledge,  or 
participate  in  new  experiences  or  activities. 


./ 


Specialized  courses  are  also  available  through  the 
Center.  Specific  courses  can  be  custom-designed  to 
meet  the  training  needs  of  individual  businesses  and 
industries.  Continuing  professional  education  courses 
are  offered  for  those  who  require  such  courses  in 
order  to  maintain  licensure  or  certification.  Trips  and 
a  variety  of  outdoor  experiences  are  available  through 
the  Wilderness  Adventure  Program.  Community 
service  workshops  and  forums  are  also  presented 
when  there  is  a  need  to  address  specific  topics 
which  interest  the  residents  in  the  College's  service 
area. 

The  services  available  through  the  Center  for  Lifelong 
Education  reflect  its  commitment  to  adult  students. 
The  Center  is  open  from  8  a.m.  until  8  p.m.  Monday 
through  Thursday  and  from  8  a.m.  until  4:30  p.m.  on 
Friday  during  the  fall  and  spring  semesters. 

All  of  the  programs  and  services  available  through 
the  Center  are  financially  self-sustaining. 
Nevertheless,  all  courses  and  services  are  modestly 
priced  and  are  very  competitive  with  those  offered  by 
other  institutions. 

The  primary  goal  of  the  Center  for  Lifelong  Education 
is  to  provide  high  quality,  low  cost  educational 
opportunities  and  services  — in  locations  that  are 
accessible  — at  times  that  are  convenient.  For  more 
information  or  to  discuss  your  educational  needs, 
please  visit  the  Center  for  Lifelong  Education  in 
Room  102  of  the  Academic  Center.  If  you  prefer,  you

warm  reception  and  competent  assistance.

SECONDARY  VOCATIONAL  PROGRAM -137 


SECONDARY 

VOCATIONAL 

PROGRAM 


The  Williamsport  Area  Community  College  is  the  only 
community  college  in  the  state  to  offer  secondary 
vocational  education.  The  College's  Secondary 
Vocational  Program  is  a  unique  example  of  what 
school  districts  and  a  community  college  can  provide 
for  their  students  and  their  communities. 

The  Secondary  Vocational  Program  at  The 
Williamsport  Area  Community  College  provides 
education  and  training  to  high  school  students  who 
want  to  prepare  for  employment  following  graduation 
as  well  as  those  who  plan  to  pursue  advanced 
education  or  training.  High  school  students  enrolled 
in  the  program  spend  one-half  of  the  school  year  (on 
a  nine-week  alternating  schedule)  at  their  home  high 
schools  where  they  complete  the  academic  courses 
required  for  high  school  graduation  and  the  other  half 
of  school  year  attending  vocational/technical  classes 
at  the  College. 

The  Secondary  Vocational  Program  offers  a 
combination  of  classroom  work  and  practical 
experience.  Students  work  in  the  College's  shops  and 
labs  to  learn  and  practice  the  skills  they  will  need 
when  they  begin  working.  Senior  year  students  may 
gain  additional  experience  through  participation  in  the 
cooperative  education  program. 


Graduates  who  want  to  continue  their  education  at 
the  college-level  in  the  same  field  of  study  may  be 
granted  advanced  placement  credit  for  the  skills  and 
competencies  acquired  in  the  program. 

The  College  also  provides  a  Senior  Year  Options 
program  for  high  school  students.  This  program 
offers  qualifying  students  the  opportunity  to  begin 
college-level  work  in  selected  technical  programs  as 
high  school  seniors.

ABOUT  THE  COLLEGE 

College  Philosophy 

We  believe  in  the  dignity  and  worth  of  all  individuals.  We  believe 
earning  is  a  lifelong  process  and  that  all  individuals  should  have 
opportunities  for  lifelong  education.  We  believe  education  should  help 
ndividuals  develop,  to  their  maximum  capacity,  technical  excellence, 
occupational  proficiency,  and  academic  ability.  We  believe  education 
should  also  provide  for  personal  enrichment.  To  prosper  in  a  complex 
ind  changing  society,  we  believe  individuals  must  learn  to  think 
ndependently,  value  logical  and  tested  conclusions,  develop  problem 
solving  abilities,  and  function  effectively  with  other  people.  We  believe 
:hat  competent  performance  contributes  significantly  to  individual 
lealth  and  happiness  and  benefits  the  organizations  and  communities

ntegral  part  of  the  community  it  serves  and  must  respond  to  identified 
oeeds  and  interests.  In  delivering  education  services,  we  believe  there 
s  no  substitute  for  the  pursuit  of  excellence.
