WELCOME We’re glad you’re here!

Protect Your RecordsFamily Education Rights and Privacy Act of 1974The following statement concerning student records main tained by the Austin Community College District is published in compliance with the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. The release of information to the public without the consent of the student will be limited to that designated as directory informa tion. Directory information includes name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, major field of study, participa tion in activities, dates of attendance, degrees, certificates and awards, and name of most previous educational institution attended, student classification, and enrollment status. Any student objecting to the release of all or any portion of such information must notify the Admissions and Records Office in writing within the first 12 class days of the semester, and the restriction will remain in effect until revoked by the student.

Student Right to KnowIn compliance with Public Law 101-542 as amended by Public Law 102-26, the Jeanne Clery Act and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (FERPA), ACC has posted links to the following at austincc.edu/current/needtoknow/righttoknow.php

• Drug and Alcohol Policy

• Financial Aid Availability

• Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)

• Voter Registration

• Bacterial Meningitis state law requirement

• Gainful Employment and Job Placement information

Title I of the Act, known as the “Student Right-to-Know Act,” requires the college to disclose institution-wide graduation rates of certificate- or degree-seeking, full-time students entering the institution. ACC’s four-year average Student Right-to-Know Completion or Graduation Rate is 4%. The four-year average Student Right-to-Know Transfer-out Rate is 38%.

Title II of the Act, known as the “Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990,” requires the college to disclose certain information on campus crime statistics and campus security policies.

• Tuition and fees are subject to change at any time.

• The costs listed in the table do not include special course and lab fees.

Residency Form and Your tuitionYou must submit a residency form to the Admissions Office when you apply at ACC and if you have not been enrolled at ACC for one year.

schedule planning guideNow that you’ve gone through the steps to enroll at ACC, these next pages will guide you as you select classes and register for them.

avoid disappointment. Plan ahead.It takes time and planning to build a class schedule. Here are some tips to make sure you get the most out of the classes you take:

Study the course schedule on the web . The online course schedule is updated frequently before and during registration. It lists each class being offered, its time, location, instructor (if available), and its synonym—which you must know in order to register. Printed course schedules are no longer offered, but each online schedule includes a printable version.

have an instructional advising session . Contact your department for valuable assistance and information unique to your degree plan.

Take classes in the right sequence . Check the course descriptions for any prerequisite courses or other important information. If you are allowed to register for a class with prerequisites, you will need to bring proof of prerequisites the first day of class.

Remove registration holds .Log in to your Online Services account to check for registration holds that will prevent you from registering for your classes. Be sure to clear these before your registration access date.

Create an alternative schedule . During registration, classes fill on a first-come, first-served basis. Have some alternative classes in case your first choices are full.

Follow your university degree plan if you plan to transfer . Students who plan to transfer to a four-year university should follow the degree plan from their expected university. That means contacting them now for advice on what courses will transfer toward your degree, and becoming familiar with any transfer equivalency guides, articulation agreements, and ACC’s core curriculum guide.

How Many Courses should i take?Use this chart to help you develop a reasonable schedule. A courseload is based on a 16-week semester. Shorter sessions require more concentrated workloads.

COntinuinG eduCatiOnFor information about enrolling in ACC’s Continuing Education courses, please visit continue.austincc.edu to get started .

CORe CuRRiCuluMThe core curriculum for the Associate of Arts and the Associate of Science degrees at ACC represents a common academic foundation . Students who successfully complete ACC’s 42-credit core curriculum can transfer the entire block of courses to any state public college or university and substitute it for the transfer institution’s core curriculum requirements . Transfer students should follow the degree plan from their prospective university and meet with an advisor there to select ACC classes . Particular care should be taken with selecting math and science courses for transfer since many university degrees have specific requirements for these subjects . In addition, it is through core curriculum courses that students satisfy the general education requirements of not just Associate of Arts and Associate of Science degrees, but of Associate of Applied Science degrees as well . The list of core curriculum courses is available in the catalog and on the Articulation and Transfer website, austincc.edu/articulation.

dePaRtMental aPPROvalIf a course is listed in the schedule with a note saying that departmental approval is required, you must call the department chair and request approval prior to registering .

distanCe leaRninGDistance Learning gives ACC students the opportunity to earn credit primarily through online and hybrid classes . Course content and transferability is identical to classes offered on campus so students have more scheduling options and a wider selection of classes to meet their needs . Students also follow the same admissions and registration procedures as on-campus students .

•ONL—Online courses complete instruction and assignments over the Internet and through email . Testing may be at a campus Testing Center .

•hYD—hybrid courses use both online instruction and traditional classroom instruction .

• ITV—Telecourses use recorded video programs, which may be viewed locally on cable, or on campus in the Media Centers . Some courses are streamed on the web .

•PRN—Print-based courses rely on textbooks and study guides as their primary mode of instruction .

For complete information about Distance Learning at ACC go to dl.austincc.edu.

dROPPinG/WithdRaWinG FROM a ClassYou can use the Online Services system to drop or withdraw from a class . You have until the official reporting date to drop a class without having it appear on your transcript . It is important to check with an advisor or your instructor before dropping a class since it may affect financial aid, veterans’ benefits, international student status, or academic standing .

eduCatiOn PlanAcademic Advisors and Counselors assist each new student in completing an Education Plan, which includes educational goals, transfer intent, course placement information, review of the chosen degree plan, and course selection for at least the first semester . Access your Education Plan through Online Services and print a copy for further reference .

ReveRse tRansFeRMany people know associate degree credits can transfer toward bachelor’s degree requirements—but the reverse is also true . Reverse transfer is a simple, free process that allows students who transfer from ACC to earn an associate degree with the help of credits earned at a university .

Weekend COlleGeACC offers classes Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays on six campuses to provide more flexibility in completing your college degree . You also have limited access to advising and other support services . We list Weekend College classes throughout the online course schedule . You also can view them alone from the Weekend College link on the course schedule webpage .

WORkFORCe eduCatiOn COuRsesCourses designated with a “W” in their course description are workforce education courses leading to the Associate of Applied Science degrees and technical certificates at ACC . These workforce courses provide students with immediately marketable career skills . They are not intended for transfer into four-year university degree programs, with only a few exceptions . Transfer students should check with their prospective university before taking a workforce course for transfer credit . Note that the general education requirements of Associate of Applied Science degrees are satisfied by the successful completion of courses in the core curriculum . n

important Veterans informationVeteran students should meet with an academic advisor or Veterans Affairs Specialist to ensure that the classes they are registering for are required for their ACC degree or certificate. The Department of Veterans Affairs will not pay for coursework that is not specifically required for completion of an ACC degree or certificate.

ACC’s Veterans Affairs department certifies veteran student enrollment after the semester add/drop period. The DVA Regional Processing Office typically sends the college the funding for the student’s enrollment within four weeks after the certification is received. ACC will process the refund within five business days. Please be reminded that students receiving financial aid and Chapter 33 benefits will not be issued a refund unless there is a credit on their account after tuition and fees have been paid.
