Nondegree admission procedures must be completed. Grades and credits are recorded on a permanent academic record.

Basic Skills Assessment To assist students with appropriate and effective course placement, Cumberland County College provides basic skill assessment for all students. Proper course placement, selection and advisement are important factors for successful course completion. Degree seeking students must take the Accuplacer as part of their initial enrollment at the college. This test is administered through the Success Center and offered both on and off campus. The Accuplacer provides assessment of basic skills in the areas of reading, writing, math computation and elementary algebra.

Are transferring from another college and have successfully completed equivalent college-level courses, including English and mathematics.

Students identified through basic skills assessment and/or previous academic records who show limited or marginal academic skills will have an interview with a college representative.This interview will review the student’s educational goals and requirements for compatibility with the student’s demonstrated academic skills. A recommendation for enrollment or alternative educational options will be provided.

Academic Information

Grading System effective Academic Year 2009-2010

Registration Students are expected to register for classes before each semester at the time and place designated. The registration process is not completed until full payment of tuition and fees is made or the student submits a fully executed Payment Plan agreement. Eligible students may also register and pay via IRIS Online.

Course Withdrawal A student may withdraw from a course up to the last two weeks of the fall/spring semester. Students should seek consultation from the instructor and/or their adviser before withdrawing from class(es). An enrollment change form must be completed by the student and submitted to the Enrollment Services Office by the student. Students who stop attending class(es) but do not submit an enrollment change form are not considered withdrawn and are not entitled to a refund. A grade of “W” is recorded for a course(s) in which a student withdraws. A “W” grade is not calculated in GPA but is considered unsuccessful course completion for satisfactory course completion rate requirements.

Grading System Students receive indications of their progress during the semester and final grades at the end of the semester. The following grade point values are used at Cumberland County College. Grading System prior to Academic Year 2009-2010 Letter Grade A B C D F

An explanation of the above grades is included in the Student Handbook.

Grade Point Average Grade point average (GPA) is the numerical calculation of grades received for courses taken. A GPA represents a student’s level of academic achievement. Students earn a GPA for each semester and a cumulative GPA totaling all semesters. The GPA is used to determine academic honors and is a component in evaluating student academic progress. A minimum GPA is necessary for student satisfactory academic progress as well as graduation. The GPA is determined by the grades and credits of courses taken. Each grade has a value and each course has an assigned number of credits. The number of credits for a course is multiplied by the earned grade value to determine grade points. The grade points are totaled and divided by the number of graded credits to determine the GPA. An explanation and example of grade point average calculation is included in the student handbook.

Academic Classification A student who has earned a minimum of 32 degree credits will be classified as a second-year (sophomore) student. Students taking 12 or more credits in the fall or spring semesters are considered full-time for that semester.

Academic Appeal Procedure Concerns regarding grades should be discussed with the individual faculty member. If a satisfactory resolution is not obtained between the student and the faculty member, the student may appeal the grade to the administration in the following order: Dean, Vice President of Academic Affairs and Enrollment Services.

Satisfactory Academic Progress All students must maintain a minimum credit completion rate and a minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) for satisfactory academic progress. The standards for both of these areas must be achieved by students for satisfactory academic standing. Students who achieve at a level below the standards for credit completion rate or grade point average (GPA), will be placed on academic probation. Students placed on academic probation, who do not improve to or above the standards for these areas in their next semester (fall/spring) of enrollment, will be considered to be making unsatisfactory academic progress and will be placed on academic suspension. The satisfactory credit completion rate is successful completion of 50% or more of all credits (most recent and all previous semesters) attempted. Successful completion rates will be reviewed after students have attempted 12 or more total credits. The first 12 credits attempted are included in the total credit completion rate calculation. The minimum grade point average (GPA) standard is a 1.6 for students with 12 to 35 degree credits completed and a 1.8 for students with 36 or more degree credits completed. Completed degree credits include all credits (most recent and all previous semesters) that have been calculated in the student’s grade GPA. A minimum GPA standard is not required until the student has completed 12 or more degree credits.

Academic Warning Students whose cumulative GPAs – at the end of a fall or spring semester - fall below 1.8 at the completion of 12 to 35 degree credits, or below a 2.0 at the completion of 36 or more degree credits, will be placed on academic warning.

Academic Probation Students whose cumulative GPAs – at the end of a fall or spring semester – fall below 1.6 at the completion of 12 to 35 degree credits, or below 1.8 at the completion of 36 or more degree credits, will be placed on academic probation. In addition, students must successfully complete, at the end of fall or spring semester, 50% or more of all credits attempted. Failure to maintain the cumulative GPA or credit completion rate minimum standards will cause students to be placed on academic probation. Students on academic probation should consult with their academic adviser to review their probationary status. The appropriate courses and number of credits to be taken by probationary students are determined by the academic adviser.

Academic Suspension Students on academic probation must achieve the minimum standards for GPA and credit completion rate in their next semester (fall/spring). Probationary students failing to meet the

minimum standards will be suspended from the college. Academic suspension is for the period of one calendar year.

•Appeals Students who have experienced unusual circumstances (i.e., hospitalization, illness, personal difficulties) that have caused their low academic performance, may appeal their academic warning, probation or suspension to the Executive Director of Enrollment, Academic and Student Support Services. The information, circumstances and documentation concerning the student’s situation, will be reviewed and the appeal will be approved or denied. Students may appeal the decision of the Executive Director of Enrollment, Academic and Student Support Services to the Vice President of Academic and Enrollment Services.

•Re-admission of Suspended Students Students who have been academically suspended must apply in writing to the Executive Director of Enrollment, Academic and Student Support Services requesting re-admission. Re-admission will not be processed without a written request. Students must submit official transcripts from any other college(s) attended since their suspension.

Security, Safety & Parking Procedures & Services Cumberland County College maintains a strong commitment to campus security and safety. Security is present on campus at all times. The Safety and Security Office is located adjacent to the Information Desk in the Student Center and is responsible for emergency responses and maintains a working relationship with the Vineland Police Department to ensure a safe environment for the entire campus community. To accomplish our goal it is imperative that students, faculty, staff or visitors report any emergencies, suspicious or criminal activity they observe. Security can be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by dialing “777” from any campus telephone. If you are calling from off campus or using a cell phone, dial the main campus number, 856/691-8600 and when the recorded message comes on dial “777.”

Traffic Accidents, Vandalism or Thefts Traffic accidents, vandalism or thefts that occur on campus should be reported to the Safety and Security Office located adjacent to the Information Desk in the Student Center. This will allow for an incident report to be completed and the Vineland Police Department contacted, which may be necessary for any claim you wish to file with your auto insurance. It is important for the college to be aware of incidents of vandalism and theft in order to monitor and respond to such incidents. Additional information is available in the campus Motor Vehicle brochure.

Parking Regulations All vehicles which students operate on campus are required to be registered and display a student parking permit. Vehicle registration forms may be obtained from and submitted to the Information Desk in the Student Center. Students completing the vehicle registration form will be issued a student parking permit. This permit should be placed on the driver’s side rear window.Vehicles which do not display a college parking permit may be ticketed. Vehicles operated and/or parked on campus are subject to regulations by the State of New Jersey, the County of Cumberland, the City of Vineland and Cumberland County College. The college assumes no liability for vehicles or personal property in vehicles parked on campus. A vehicle can be towed at the owner’s expense, without notice, if in the judgment of Security or college personnel, the vehicle is in violation of campus policy. There is ample on-campus student parking at virtually all times. This allows for students to park properly in designated student parking spaces. Students must understand that conveniently located authorized (legal) parking spaces are not guaranteed. The parking facilities are utilized on a first come/first serve basis. The responsibility of finding an authorized parking space rests with the student (vehicle) operator, inability to do so shall not be justification for improper parking.

You will find that student parking on campus is relatively close to the various campus facilities, particularly when compared to other colleges both in the state and region. Parking violators will be charged $5 for the first violation and $10 for each subsequent violation. Excessive parking violations can result in disciplinary sanctions beyond the payment of fines. Additional information is available in the campus Motor Vehicle brochure.

Bus Service New Jersey Transit operates bus service on weekdays only between 7:00 am and 10:30 pm to Cumberland County College. The #553 bus serves Upper Deerfield, Bridgeton, Millville and Vineland. Schedules of services and rates are available at the reception area in the administrative building and from New Jersey Transit.

Policies Nondiscrimination and Harrassment Information Cumberland County College strives to provide an environment for work and study that enables employees and students to pursue a career or education and progress on merit and ability, without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability and age.

Nondiscrimination Cumberland County College endorses the goals of Title IX of the Education Amendments, which state: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” Cumberland County College does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, disability and age, in the admission of students, in any of its programs or activities and in its employment practices. Inquiries concerning the application of this policy on nondiscrimination, or complaints of discrimination under any of the above-referenced bases, may be directed to the Executive Director of Human Resources, Cumberland County College, PO Box 1500, Vineland, NJ 08362-1500, 856/691-8600, ext. 235. This individual is designated to coordinate the college’s efforts to comply with and carry out its responsibilities under Title IX, Section 504/the ADA, and the Age Discrimination Act, which prohibit discrimination of the basis of sex, disability and age, respectively.

Sexual Harassment Policy On April 11, 1980, the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission issued interim interpretive guidelines that define the circumstances under which sexual harassment may be a violation of Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Sexual harassment is defined by the EEOC as, “unwelcomed sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when submission to such

conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual’s employment; when submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for an employment decision affecting such individual; or when such conduct has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with an individual’s work performance, or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment.” All Cumberland County College employees and students are cautioned that acts of discrimination or harassment will not be tolerated. The college firmly disapproves of any and all acts or incidents of discriminatory or sexual harassment by its employees or members of the college community. It is the policy of Cumberland County College to take immediate corrective action when the facts are brought to the attention of the Affirmative Action Officer/Executive Director of Human Resources, Administration Building, 856/691-8600, ext. 235. A student who believes he/she has been harassed or discriminated against under Title VI, Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title IX, sex discrimination of 1972, Section 504 and The Americans with Disabilities Act, should report the harassing or discriminatory act or material immediately to the Executive Director of Human Resources.

Discrimination and Harassment Grievance Procedure Allegations of sexual or discriminatory harassment, hostile classroom environment, or harassment or discrimination in any other form are serious. All complaints of harassment or discrimination will be documented and dealt with promptly and confidentially. A complaint may be formal or informal. Any currently enrolled student who encounters an act, acts, or material of a discriminatory nature and believes he/she has been discriminated against under Title VI and VIII, 1964 Civil Rights Act; Executive Order; Title IX, 1972 Education Amendments; 1973 Rehabilitation Act, should proceed as follows: Step 1. Immediately file a formal or informal complaint with The Affirmative Action Officer/Executive Director of Human Resources, located in Administration Building, ext. 235. At this stage the student must complete a grievance form detailing the incident and providing the names of any witnesses, if available. Step 2. If, after the initial review of the allegations by the Affirmative Action Officer, a formal investigation is warranted, the Affirmative Action Officer will appoint a three-member panel to investigate and review the complaint. Step 3. If the investigation and review confirms the allegations stated in the complaint, the panel will recommend appropriate action to the President. Step 4. The President will consider the panel’s recommendations and make a final recommendation for action to the Board of Trustees. Step 5. This action may be appealed to the Board of Trustees by either party. Note: The college will take appropriate action in dealing with false allegations of harassment or discrimination.

148

Americans with Disabilities Act, (ADA) Section 504, 1990, PL1975 c127 (NJAC) 17:27) Complaint Procedures As required by Section 504, 1990, Americans with disabilities Act, PL1975 c127 (NJAC) 17:27, Cumberland County College has established the following complaint procedures: Step 1.

Step 2. The Section 504 Coordinator will investigate and respond to the complaint in 20 days in writing. Step 3. The student may appeal the response in writing within 10 days to the Section 504 Coordinator. Step 4. The appeal will be referred to and reviewed by a three member panel chosen from administration and faculty. Within 30 days, the panel will investigate the allegations and recommend appropriate action to the President. Step 5. The President will provide a written determination to the complainant. Note: The President’s decision is the final step in the internal process. Weekends and holidays will be disregarded in calculating days.

Student Rights and Responsibilities The rights and responsibilities of students, including Student Conduct Code, Academic Honesty, Prohibited Conduct, Disciplinary Sanctions, Student Due Process and Student Grievance Procedures are explained and described in the Student Handbook.

Student Records The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act-FERPA provides the requirements designed to protect the privacy of students and their records.

At Cumberland County College, directory information includes the student’s name, major field of study, dates of attendance, degrees and awards received, most previous educational institution attended, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight, height, hometown and high school, if a member of an athletic team.

Located in the Southwest corner of New Jersey, the county is home to 130,000 people. The county is 40 miles from Philadelphia. New York City and Washington, D.C. are each about a three-hour drive. An abundance of recreational opportunities exist throughout the region and in the county, which is located on the Delaware Bay and within 35 miles of the Atlantic Coast beaches and the casinos in Atlantic City.

Cumberland is characterized by an active arts community, a bustling shopping mall, a zoo that features Siberian tigers, vast historic wetlands, fertile farmlands and a rich glassblowing heritage. Pro sports enthusiasts are 40 minutes away from the Philadelphia Eagles, Flyers, 76ers and Phillies.
