ASSESSMENT OBJECTIVES - INSTITUTIONAL GOALS Faculty at the University of Northwestern Ohio have identified six institutional goals for students to develop during their coursework. Graduates should possess the following abilities: • • • • • •

Oral, Written, and Visual Communication Mathematical Data Analysis Arts and Humanities Social and Behavioral Sciences Natural and Physical Sciences Competency in Major

Each course syllabus will cite the specific skills that are being developed in that course and program. Measurement and assessment of the institutional goals will occur in the Portfolio Capstone Course that students will complete before graduating. The University is involved in a four-year study with The Higher Learning Commission Assessment Academy to redefine these goals and general education.

MAJOR/DEPARTMENT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES Academic Outcomes Each department, both academic and non-academic, has identified Major/Department Goals. The academic goals and objectives are developed during the required courses for that major and are measured in embedded course projects and in activities that are administered during the Portfolio Capstone course which all students complete before graduation. Results from the measurement tools are tabulated and disseminated to department members in order to make adjustments to the coursework, lesson plans, textbooks, assignments, etc. to increase the students’ level of understanding for the major goals and objectives. These changes are documented and maintained by all departments. Institutional Effectiveness Goals Non-academic departments have also identified departmental goals and objectives. These goals and objectives outline how the department will fulfill its mission statement. Measurement tools have been identified for nonacademic departments, and the results from the measurement tools are shared among department members and across departments. These results help the non-academic departments consistently improve the services they provide to all potential and current students as well as alumni and members of the communities the University serves.

GENERAL EDUCATION PHILOSOPHY Mission Statement: To provide a positive and diverse learning experience which develops students’ knowledge, skills, and attitudes, enabling success in their fields and personal growth through lifelong learning.

OVERVIEW Vision: More than ever, in today’s world a meaningful college education goes beyond studying in one’s major field or training for a specific career. General education is a curriculum that supports and complements our institutional goals by providing students the opportunity to achieve a breadth of knowledge, understanding, skills, and values that will help students adapt to change and be informed and productive students, workers, and citizens. To serve these purposes, students will take courses in the following areas: Oral, Written, and Visual Communications • Students should develop interpersonal, written, and oral communication skills as well as recognize non-verbal cues. • Students should develop competencies with writing and reading, to express their own thoughts and to comprehend the writing of others. • Course areas will include composition as well as electives students may choose. Mathematical Data Analysis • Students should engage in abstract and quantitative ways of thinking and problem solving, using mathematical operations and logic. • Specific math courses will be determined by program. Arts and Humanities • Students should recognize the value of human experience and thought as shown through art, philosophy, ethics, history, and popular culture. • Course areas will include literature, philosophy, history, political science, and popular culture. Social and Behavioral Sciences • Students should understand human behavior on the individual and group level and methods of inquiry used within these fields. • Course areas will include communication, economics, politics, psychology, and sociology. Natural and Physical Sciences • Students should develop knowledge of science and its applications to make observations, draw conclusions, and evaluate scientific information. • Course areas will include a science course and a laboratory course. University Studies • Students should develop an awareness, understanding, and respect for a variety of cultures and how they differ from one’s own, to better live and work in an increasingly interconnected world. • Students will be introduced to various learning techniques and methods to enhance their educational experiences and contribute to success in college and beyond. • Courses will include cultural diversity and other areas of enrichment. Students will achieve different levels of Institutional Goals depending on their degree level.

COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY Diversity at UNOH refers to social differences, the intersections and interactions among identity categories such as background, perspective, values, culture, race, ethnicity, religion or secularism, age, gender identity, sexual orientation, physical and mental abilities, and economic status.

The Academic Skills Lab is located in the 500 Building. Students who would like additional assistance for written papers or projects can email the assignment to writinghelp@unoh.edu 48 hours prior to the due date. When sending a paper or project, please include the following:

• • • • • • •

Name Due Date Instructor Course Type of Assignment and/or Requirements of Assignments The most important thing(s) I need help with regarding this assignment If you have access to an electronic version of a rubric or directions for the assignment, you can also attach those documents with your work. The more information you provide the better.

OVERVIEW Mathematics Lab The UNOH Mathematics Lab is open to all undergraduate students and is free of charge. For specific dates and times that the lab is available, please contact James Nastally, Mathematics Lab Coordinator/Academic Skills Assistant, at janastal@unoh.edu or 419-998-3157. The UNOH Mathematics Lab: • Strongly emphasizes students’ desires to learn and understand any and all math material that they are given so they can master the material once leaving the lab. • Is designed to place students more at ease with any anxiety concerning math. • Takes great pride into making any math course more fun, enjoyable, and more self-fulfilling for every student who has a goal in mind of becoming a great business/technical professional. • Understands that students learn at their own pace, hence the staff is supportive and patient in the learning process. What to Expect in the UNOH Mathematics Lab: • All students who use the Mathematics Lab is to sign in on the Mathematics Lab Sign-In Sheet to keep track of traffic flow in the lab to evaluate for future endeavors for the lab. • Come prepared with pencils, paper, books, calculators, etc. Computers will be provided in both the Skills Lab and Room 5207 for courses that require the use of software and online programs. • Have at least tried to work through some of the homework to give the Mathematics Lab staff a better understanding of where students’ struggles are with certain material. What the UNOH Mathematics Lab is NOT: • A replacement for the classroom. For students to fully understand their courses, they must first understand the expectations and directions of their instructor to complete assigned material successfully. Instructors have the option to deviate from their syllabus at will, and it is the students’ responsibility to be aware of the changes to the course that an instructor or professor makes. • A substitute for missed classes. The Mathematics Lab cannot compare with instructors’ direction and expectations, as stated from the previous bullet point. Students are advised to keep in contact with instructors or professors when missing a class period. • A last-minute resort before an exam, midterm, or final examination. The Mathematics Lab cannot replace weeks of material into a few hours of tutoring. It is advised that students are seen in the Mathematics Lab frequently throughout the week to grasp a better understanding of the various material covered in their courses. Tips for Using the UNOH Mathematics Lab: • Stop into the Mathematics Lab the first day of class just to introduce yourself and know whom to meet once problems start to arise throughout the course. • Become acquainted with peers in your math course and form study groups. Having familiar faces to work with while in the Mathematics Lab will help to create better success once leaving the lab. • Do similar problems to your assigned course work with the answers in the back of the book to grasp a better understanding of the material. • Be patient with the Mathematics Lab staff, and they will be patient with you. Students learn on a different platform than the rest of their peers. The learning process is slow when tackling new material; but with time and patience, anything is possible with the right attitude and approach. Students with Disabilities Students who used an IEP (Individualized Education Plan) or 504 plan in high school should bring a copy of their most current plans and accommodations to the Academic Skills Coordinator to be put on file. The University upholds reasonable accommodations for the students who have a plan that is preferably no more than three years old. A student’s IEP or 504 may be brought, mailed, or faxed to the attention of Danielle McClure.

OVERVIEW Tutors Student tutors are available to students who seek assistance through the Skills Lab. Tutors must have previously taken the class and earned a B or higher in order to be eligible for tutoring. The cost of tutoring is $8 an hour--the student and the University each pays $4.

At the time of application, a $20 application fee must be paid. ACT/SAT scores are recommended but not required. Students who take the ACT/SAT exams may use those scores for placement tests. The University of Northwestern Ohio may deny admission to any applicant for any reason not prohibited by law, including conviction of a crime or the fact that the applicant has been subject to discipline at another academic institution. Students will be asked periodically to complete a disclosure form indicating whether or not they have been arrested for or convicted of a crime. The purpose of the disclosure form is to identify potential threats to the UNOH community. Every disclosure of an arrest or conviction will be evaluated on an individual basis. However, students may be subject to discipline for arrests and convictions up to and including expulsion from UNOH. In addition, failure to disclose an arrest or conviction constitute grounds for discipline up to and including expulsion from UNOH. Questions regarding this policy should be directed to the Director of Safety Services. Acceptance. Students will be accepted at the University on one of two levels. The first is Full Acceptance (upon receipt of the final transcript), which means that no restrictions are placed upon the students. The second is Probational, which means that students are being accepted for one academic quarter/session on the condition that normal scholastic progress is achieved. If a student does not start within a year of completing his/her enrollment application, the new tuition rate and program iteration will apply.

TIME OF ADMISSION Students are admitted at the beginning of each term, according to the dates in the catalog. Students may not begin after the term starts. Only students who are graduates of an accredited high school or its equivalent are eligible to be awarded a diploma or degree by the University. Students should submit proof of graduation before they may begin classes unless they are in an early admissions or post-secondary options program. Students who have been homeschooled must also present proof of graduation and other appropriate documentation.

ACCREDITED HIGH SCHOOL TRANSCRIPTS These transcripts from accredited high schools must be sent directly from your school to the University of Northwestern Ohio. We do not accept hand-delivered or faxed transcripts as official documents. In order for the transcript to be considered official, the following information must be included: • Date of Graduation • Imprint/Raised Seal • Signature of School Official • G.P.A. - Cumulative • Rank of Student 27

ADMISSIONS If your school does not have a raised seal or does not rank students, it must be noted on the transcript by the school official.

STUDENTS WITH A GED Students who have completed a GED from the State of Ohio must request an official copy of test scores be sent directly to the Office of the Registrar. Students with a GED from a state other than Ohio can submit a copy of their test scores for verification.

HOME SCHOOLING Students who have been home-schooled must provide the following documentation as the final transcript:

• • • • •

Transcript outlining all courses taken Course descriptions of courses taken Grades received in those courses Date of completion of all requirements for graduation Documentation outlining a curriculum approved by the state where the student was home-schooled

The transcript must be signed by the person certifying it and be notarized to be considered official.

EVIDENCE OF GRADUATION Students must have evidence that they have been granted a diploma from a state-recognized and accredited high school to be accepted at the University of Northwestern Ohio. Any questions about special circumstances or certificates or a GED should be directed to the Registrar’s Office. College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions students have one quarter and College of Applied Technologies students have two sessions to provide proof of high school graduation. Students without proof of graduation after the deadline may be put on hold and denied further enrollment until proof of graduation is provided. Evidence that students have not graduated will prevent scheduling for any future term.

ORIENTATION Students are encouraged to attend an orientation session prior to starting classes. Orientation is an informative session during which the students and parents will receive information about housing, financial aid, fees, career services and scheduling. The housing move-in activities and procedures will also be explained. The purpose of orientation is to make the transition from high school to the University of Northwestern Ohio an easy one. If students cannot attend orientation, they will be mailed the information and receive a follow-up call from the New Student Coordinator. The Colleges of Business, Health Professions, and Occupational Professions hold orientations before each quarter where placement testing and scheduling are completed. Students who do not complete placement testing before their starting term may be required to take the developmental courses required in their program, EN070 Basic English, MH065 Review Math, and KY080 Keyboarding for Beginners.

DEGREE-SEEKING STUDENTS / UNDECLARED MAJORS Degree-seeking students enroll for the purpose of completing diploma or degree programs. Students may declare a major at the time of enrollment or enter as an undeclared major. Undeclared majors may declare majors at any time. However, because of the sequence of major courses, it will take longer to graduate.

ADMISSIONS NON-DEGREE-SEEKING STUDENTS Non-degree-seeking students do not intend to complete diploma or degree programs. These students may take a maximum of 12 credit hours and must then declare a major and complete the regular application process. Non-degree seeking students must meet all course prerequisites and will be placed on academic hold which will require the Registrar’s Office to schedule classes. The hold will be removed if a major is declared.

TRANSIENT STUDENTS Students from other colleges who wish to enroll at the University of Northwestern Ohio for a limited time or a specific course can be admitted as transient students. They should contact the Registrar of their current college to determine transferability of UNOH courses. These students may take a maximum of 12 credit hours; after completion, to continue, they must declare a major and complete the regular application process. Transient students must meet all course prerequisites and will be placed on academic hold which will require the Registrar’s Office to schedule classes. The hold will be removed if a major is declared.

TRANSFER STUDENTS Students who transfer from another accredited college must have an official transcript of their college courses sent directly from their original college to the Office of the Registrar at the University of Northwestern Ohio for evaluation of credit. Credit may be granted for comparable course descriptions and credit hours in which students have received a grade of C or better. A maximum of 135 quarter hours for baccalaureate degree programs, 81 quarter hours for associate degree programs and 54 quarter hours for diploma programs may be transferred from other institutions. A maximum of 20 credit hours will be transferred into the general education component of the associate of applied science degree. Diploma students are required to complete their general education course requirements through the University of Northwestern Ohio. Computer and other technical courses will need to be retaken if not taken within a recent time period, usually three years. Students may receive credit for courses in several ways: by completing the courses satisfactorily, by passing proficiency exams, by demonstrating experiential learning through portfolio development or by transferring credits. Students who present evidence of ASE certification (College of Applied Technologies - degree program only) may take a “hands-on” test to gain credit. Proficiency exams may be taken by all students--traditional and Virtual College. Students who have attended an institution that is nationally but not regionally accredited may have their credits transferred conditionally. Upon the successful completion (2.00) of one quarter of full-time work (College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions) or two sessions (College of Applied Technologies), the transfer credits will be recorded on their permanent transcripts; otherwise, the credits will be recorded when a 2.00 is achieved. Students who have earned an appropriate associate degree from an accredited institution can transfer 90 hours into the 2+2 baccalaureate courses with junior status. Students who have not earned an associate degree will have their transcripts evaluated on a course-by-course basis. MBA students may transfer in a maximum of 8 credit hours from a graduate program at another regionally accredited institution. Students in the MBA Program must complete 40 quarter credit hours with the University of Northwestern Ohio. In order to receive credit for transfer courses, the student must have earned an average grade of B or better in graduate courses. Students who wish to transfer to other institutions should contact the Registrar at that college or university for information about transferability of credit.

ADMISSIONS INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS Students from other countries are offered the opportunity to study at the University of Northwestern Ohio. To be admitted to the University, international students must meet the following admissions requirements:

•

• •

• • •

•

Students must submit the University’s Application for Enrollment and an official copy of a secondary level or high school academic record indicating successful completion of the program. (International students completing their last year of secondary level education in the U.S. as exchange students must submit an academic record from the U.S. high school they currently attend as well as the school they last attended in their home country. A letter should also be submitted from a high school official [i.e. guidance counselor] who is familiar with the students’ academic progress, recommending the students for the majors they have selected.) If students have previously attended colleges or universities, official copies of these records must also be submitted. All records should be submitted in English. Students who are from countries where English is not the dominant or common language must also submit one of the following results: IELTS (International English Language Testing System): 5.5 minimum required score TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language): 61 - internet-based test The University defines the requirement of the dominant or common language. The application fee of $50 must be in U.S. currency and accompany the application for enrollment. Financial aid for international students is not offered by the University of Northwestern Ohio. Therefore, students are required to submit documentation of sufficient financial resources to meet university expenses. If students are sponsored by an individual or other source, an official letter of verification from that sponsor must also be submitted. All records need to be translated in English by an acceptable source.

After students submit the above-mentioned items, the University will review the materials and will issue Form I-20, Certificate of Eligibility, if all required items are in order.

RESIDENCY REQUIREMENT Generally, the University of Northwestern Ohio requires students to take a minimum of 45 credit hours from the University for a baccalaureate degree, 27 credit hours for an associate degree and 18 hours for diploma programs. This requirement is modified for Military personnel.

TESTING Placement testing serves two purposes. First, it helps the University determine abilities in English, mathematics, and keyboarding. Second, it places students in the correct course level, either college-level courses or courses that prepare students for college-level courses. To help students succeed, the University provides developmental assistance. For those students who demonstrate a need for help, MH065 Review Math, EN070 Basic English, and KY080 Keyboarding for Beginners are required. These credits are not counted in the accumulative total of credits required for graduation. Students from all colleges are permitted to submit valid ACT or SAT scores for placement into college-level courses. Any student scoring 18 or higher on the ACT English or math test or SAT scores of 450 in writing or math is not required to take tests for placement in college-level courses. College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions Business students are evaluated in English and math. Students scoring below 70% on the tests are required to take EN070 Basic English and/or MH065 Review Math. Students in select majors may have to take the test in keyboarding. Those students scoring below 25 net words per minute and/or scoring more than five errors on the keyboarding timing test are required to take KY080 Keyboarding for Beginners. 30

ADMISSIONS Retesting Policy: The University of Northwestern Ohio follows the COMPASS Retest Policy provided by ACT. Therefore, retesting is only appropriate when there is reason to believe that the examinee’s score does not accurately reflect his or her knowledge or skill. Retesting is appropriate under two circumstances: (1) when performance is influenced by factors other than ability and (2) when there is a significant change in the examinee’s ability. Retesting is considered on an individual basis, and all requests should be submitted in a letter to the Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs. There is a $25 retesting fee. College of Applied Technologies Students will be evaluated in writing and math through a placement test given in UN100 First Year Experience. For students who demonstrate a need for help (scoring below a 70% on the English and/or math placement tests), MH065 Review Math and/or EN070 Basic English are required. If students have taken ACT or SAT tests before matriculating, those scores may be used. Any student scoring 18 or higher on the ACT English or math test or SAT scores of 450 in writing or math is not required to take tests for placement in college-level courses.

ADVANCED PLACEMENT Advanced Placement credit will be granted to students taking college-level courses in high school on the following basis: Advanced Placement Examinations College Entrance Examination Board University of Northwestern Ohio Minimum Credit Hours University of Northwestern Ohio Subject AP Test Score Given Course English Language & Composition 4 5 EN180 Composition I History American History 3 3 HI285 U.S. History–1870 to Present Mathematics Mathematics 3 5 MH169 Business Math Political Science Am. Gov. & Politics 3 3 PS274 American Political Scene Psychology Psychology 5 3 PY177 Introduction to Psychology Advanced Placement test scores in other subject areas may be evaluated for credit in technical, general education, or specialized courses at the 100 or 200 level.

CREDIT BY EXAMINATION Regularly enrolled students in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions may request proficiency examinations for advanced standing in some 100-level courses. See the Registrar for applicable classes. Special exams may be given in other classes. Microsoft certifications may serve as credit competencies for DP117, DP150, and WP138. MOS tests must be completed in the current version of Microsoft Office, Office 2010. Students in the College of Applied Technologies must successfully complete both written and hands-on portions of the proficiency exams to receive credit. Proof of ASE certification will suffice as the written portion of the proficiency exam. Proficiency exams may be taken only once and must be taken prior to scheduling for a course. A charge is made for this service.

ADMISSIONS CREDIT FOR EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING The University of Northwestern Ohio believes that life experiences provide people with measurable opportunities for learning. Students who feel their lifelong learning could be evaluated should set up an interview with the Dean of the Colleges of Business, Health Professions, and Occupational Professions. At that time, the feasibility of the request will be determined; and, in cases where it appears to be a viable option, students should enroll in a one-hour course in Prior Learning Assessment. The assessment of previous learning will be based on the detailed portfolio which will include verification and documentation of experience as well as evidence of college-level learning. A maximum of 40 hours may be earned. A charge is made for evaluation of the portfolio. Credit may be given for PONSI, CLEP, DANTES, and ACE recommendations.

HIGH SCHOOL ARTICULATION AGREEMENTS The University of Northwestern Ohio has a partnership with many area high schools/career centers/vocational schools to grant enrolled students articulation credit if certain course requirements are met through their high school/vocational center. The University of Northwestern Ohio offers articulation credit in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, College of Occupational Professions, and the College of Applied Technologies. Information about schools that currently have articulation agreements with the University of Northwestern Ohio can be gained by contacting the Registrar’s Office. If an agreement has been established with the school, then students should visit their secondary school counselor to have their articulation application completed. All completed applications should be returned to the Registrar’s Office.

TECH-PREP PROGRAMS Through the Tech Prep Consortium, the University of Northwestern Ohio has entered into an arrangement with area career centers/vocational schools to offer articulation credit in automotive technology. Students should contact the counselors at their career centers/vocational schools to have them complete the application form.

EARLY ADMISSIONS PROGRAM With the approval of their high school principals, high school seniors may enroll for business or technological classes at the University of Northwestern Ohio. Interested students should check with their high school principals or guidance counselors.

POST-SECONDARY OPTION The Post-Secondary Option program allows appropriately qualified high school students the opportunity to participate in college-level courses while still attending high school. High school juniors and seniors should have a 3.00 g.p.a. to participate; freshmen and sophomores must have a 3.5 g.p.a. to participate. High school students must meet the University requirements for prerequisite courses and maintain satisfactory progress to continue in the program. Students will be required to take English and math placement tests before enrolling into an English or math course prior to the quarter’s beginning. The Post-Secondary Option program is available fall, winter and spring quarters. Proficiency tests for other courses are available at a cost of $50 each. Grades are available on-line for both traditional and Virtual College students and are sent to the high school counselor each quarter. The Post-Secondary Option is offered through the following delivery methods: Virtual College. Students complete all of the work via the Internet. Each student must have Internet access with a computer and the required software for classes. Weekly contact is made with the instructor. All Virtual College students are required to take UN100 First Year Experience the first quarter. This course prepares the students for the Virtual College experience. 32

ADMISSIONS Traditional Classes. The student will attend regularly scheduled classes and follow the guidelines given by the instructors.

DUAL ENROLLMENT In an effort to strengthen our partnerships with area high schools, the University has instituted a dual enrollment program. This program is designed to enhance the academic rigor of high school curricula and give high school students the opportunity to earn college credit without leaving their home high school. Students must have a 3.00 high school accumulative average or be recommended by their high school guidance counselor. Partnering high schools will teach a duplication of a UNOH course within a regularly scheduled high school class. High school teachers must meet college qualifications standards and are mentored by University administrative staff. The standard application fee will be waived for dual enrollment students. Students must earn a passing grade to receive college credit.

MBA ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS Students will be required to submit an application and application fee to the Admissions Department. Application deadlines will be posted with the Admissions Department and online. An MBA student selection date will be also be posted. All applicants will be notified of admittance or waiting list status. Admission into the MBA Program will be granted after review of the application materials by the Admissions Department, the MBA Director, and the Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost. If applicant numbers are within the allotted number of students being accepted for that quarter, students with a 3.0 or better will be admitted unconditionally; students between a 2.5 – 2.99 will be accepted with conditional acceptance. If enrollment exceeds the sections being offered, potential students will be ranked based on undergraduate g.p.a. Deficiency and prerequisite areas will also be considered. Baccalaureate degrees transferred from an institution with national accreditation will be entered after two quarters of attendance at the University. At that time, the student must be in Good Standing (3.00 g.p.a.). Four areas of prerequisite have been outlined. These areas are: Accounting Marketing Finance Economics Students not meeting these prerequisites at the baccalaureate or graduate level will be required to complete their deficiencies either in a module format for pass/fail credit or be taken as a traditional course for credit. The MBA program is 18 months in length (six quarters) and begins each spring and fall. On-campus MBA students typically schedule two web-enhanced courses per quarter. A web-enhanced course features a combination of traditional and virtual settings. In a typical four-credit hour course students will average two hours on campus and two hours online each week (rather than four hours on campus). Attendance on campus is mandatory, but students are given some flexibility with virtual requirements. Class times consist of lecture, group work, assessments, etc. Virtual requirements include exploration of course material via message board discussion with peers and instructors, article review and summary, assessments, etc. Additionally, lecture information, assignments, course information, and supplemental materials are made available to students on the course website. The MBA on-line degree has no mandatory on-campus time. Academic Requirements. The following procedure was established to monitor student progress.

•

If a student fails a course the first time, the Registrar’s Office will notify the student in writing that he or she has only one more chance for a retake. Students will be allowed to retake an MBA course only one time; any additional requests will require a written appeal to the MBA committee.

•

A cumulative g.p.a. of 3.00 must be maintained to be in Good Standing in the MBA program. 33

ADMISSIONS •

Academic standing will be as follows: Acceptance Quarter 1 Quarter 2 Quarter 3

Conditional (2.5 – 2.99) Probation Dismissed

Full (above 3.0) Warning Probation Dismissed

Action Registrar letter issued

•

Conditionally accepted students will go on probation the first quarter they are under 3.00 because their conditional acceptance serves as a warning.

•

These academic requirements do not have to be sequential quarters.

•

The MBA program will follow the same academic guidelines as other programs.

The MBA program must be completed within five years. Students are encouraged to maintain continuous enrollment in the program, but a student may apply for a temporary leave with the appropriate documentation. Only two leave periods may be taken during enrollment in the program. If a student withdraws for a leave period, he or she will be subject to any iteration changes that may have been made to the program and may, therefore, have additional coursework required in order to complete the program. The tuition at the time of re-admittance will be in effect. Transfer information can be found on Page 29. For information on grading, please see Page 69.

ARMY ROTC Overview Army ROTC is an elective that students take along with their required college classes that teaches them the skills needed for a successful career. Students combine classroom time with hands-on experiences and learn leadership and management skills. It prepares them with the tools, training, and experiences that will help them succeed in any competitive environment. Because it’s an elective, students can try it out for their freshman and sophomore years without incurring any obligation to serve in the military. If they decide they are up to the challenge of leading in the world’s best armed forces, they continue on to the advanced courses of Army ROTC while completing their degree. Students will have a normal college student experience like everyone else on campus, but at graduation they are commissioned as a Second Lieutenant to serve on active duty or with the Army Reserves or National Guard. Take Army ROTC for a semester, 1 year, 2 years, or all 4 years Traditionally, Army ROTC is a four-year program. The first two years are taken in the freshman and sophomore years (Basic Course). Keep in mind, students can take the Basic Course on a trial basis for up to two years (unless, of course, students are on an Army ROTC scholarship or contracted). The ROTC courses must be taken on the Bowling Green State University campus in Bowling Green, Ohio, once a week. The second two years are taken in the junior and senior years (Advanced Course). And, during the summer between the junior and senior years, students will attend Leader Development and Assessment Course (LDAC), which will give them hands-on training and the confidence they can’t learn in a classroom. It is a four-week summer course to evaluate and train all Army ROTC Cadets. What will you learn? During the Basic Course, studies will include: Basic Leadership Development, Basic Military Skills, Adventure Training, and Life Skills. During the Advanced Course, studies will include: Advanced Leadership and Management Skills, Advanced Tactics, and Army Ethics. Whether students take Army ROTC for a semester, two years, or all four years, they will have the skills, confidence, and experience needed to succeed after they graduate in whatever career they decide to pursue. 34

Through the College of Distance Learning, students can complete 100% of their education online in specific majors, including all coursework, registration, and purchasing books. Students earn their degrees in the most convenient and efficient way possible, because the University utilizes an asynchronous format that allows students to participate at anytime, anywhere that works best for them. The University also provides a special rate for military personnel, spouses, veterans, and dependents. The College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions rate is $165 per credit hour for traditional and online classes. Students in the College of Applied Technologies, Graduate College, and one-night-aweek programs receive a 10% discount off tuition. Military Withdrawal UNOH offers special circumstance extensions or withdrawals for students who find themselves deployed or sent on military mission assignments after starting a class or classes. Any service member who is eligible for a special extension or withdrawal is required to contact the Registrar’s office, the ESO, the course instructor(s), and the military relations office (Randy Gonzalez) when deployment or other circumstances will make it impossible to complete coursework within the scheduled time frame. Service members who provide documentation of deployment or other acceptable reason to the Military Relations Office at the time of a withdrawal for military purposes may have their catalog year for program requirements maintained for a period of up to one year from the date of withdrawal. If the deployment period exceeds one year, the student must submit documentation of the date of return to the Military Relations Office and re-enroll in the next available term after returning from deployment. Students in the College of Applied Technologies may also have their tuition rate maintained for the same period of time. Documentation must be provided to the military affairs representative, Randy Gonzalez, before withdrawing in order to be eligible for this policy. In the absence of documentation, the withdrawal will be processed according to standard procedure. In case of unexpected deployment, the University may provide for forgiveness of University charges not covered by eligible financial aid or military benefits. Deployment orders must be submitted to the University of Northwestern Ohio Military Relations Office no later than 14 calendar days after the first date of employment.

TUITION TUITION PAYMENT PROCEDURES Tuition and fee payments are due on or before the first day of each term. Failure to make payment may result in inability to schedule for future terms and/or non-release of transcript. Payments can be made by mail, on-line, or in person at the Cashier’s Office on or before the first day of class. The University accepts cash, bank check, money order and credit cards, including VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. Cashier’s Office hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday and Wednesday, and 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Students returning to the University after a term or any portion of a term off must pay all past due fees before scheduling. Upon leave, fee rates increase to the rate in effect when the student returns. For your payment convenience, payment plans are available each term. Students wishing to take advantage of the payment plan option should contact the Cashier’s Office prior to the start of the term. Unpaid balances or late payment plans can result in a “financial hold” being placed on a student’s account. A financial hold may result in any or all of the following: - Student may not be scheduled for subsequent term. - Schedule for next term may be removed. - Transcripts will not be released. - Diploma/degree will not be released.

TUITION REIMBURSEMENT Any student who receives tuition reimbursement may defer payment until the end of each term. Deferment is dependent upon receipt by the University (on or before the first day of class), a signed reimbursement plan form with a satisfactory commitment from the employer to reimburse the University for tuition, fees and other charges. Amount of tuition deferment is based upon the employer’s reimbursement policy. Charges in excess of reimbursement must be paid on or before the first day of class. A new reimbursement plan must be submitted by the first day of each term. Forms are available at the Cashier’s Office or on-line at www.unoh.edu.

REFUND POLICY Students should familiarize themselves with the University’s refund policy. The refund policy determines if any credit is due to students if they withdraw from school or reduce enrollment. The “refund period” is when the University of Northwestern Ohio may not charge 100% of the tuition if the student withdraws. Please refer to the official withdrawal policy as stated on Page 76 to determine date of withdrawal. If students decide not to attend the University, the $20 application fee will be refunded if requested within 30 calendar days after signing the enrollment agreement and making an initial payment or if students are not accepted by the University. All housing deposits are non-refundable.

COMPLETE WITHDRAWAL POLICY Tuition and fees are charged on a quarterly basis in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, College of Occupational Professions, and Graduate College and per six-week session in the College of Applied Technologies. Students who are enrolled in classes and then completely withdraw will be subject to the following policy. • 38

Students who withdraw on or before the second day of the term are credited 100% tuition. Dorm fees are prorated to the day the key is returned to housing/security and an exit sheet is completed.

TUITION •

Students who completely withdraw on or before the eighth (8th) calendar day of the term are entitled to 75% credit of tuition billed for that term.

•

Students who completely withdraw on or before the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of the term are entitled to 50% credit of tuition billed for that term.

•

Students who completely withdraw on or before the twenty-second (22nd) calendar day of the term are entitled to 25% credit of tuition billed for that term.

•

Students who withdraw after the twenty-second (22nd) calendar day of the term will not receive credit of tuition billed for that term.

•

Withdrawal policy does not apply to dual enrollment students. Dual enrollment students are not eligible for a tuition credit or refund.

The University of Northwestern Ohio adheres to the federal policy for the return of Title IV funding. The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 (HEA98) represent the requirements in the Return of Title IV Federal Financial Aid when a student withdraws from the University. This policy governs all federal grant and loan programs (as listed below), but does not include the Federal Work-Study Program. Federal law requires that a student earn his/her federal financial aid awards in proportion to the number of days in the term prior to the student’s complete withdrawal. The portion of the federal grants and loans to which the student is entitled to receive or has earned is calculated on a percentage basis by comparing the total number of days in the term to the number of days that the student completed before he/she withdrew. For example, if a student completes 40% of the term, he/she earns 40% of the approved federal aid that he/she was originally scheduled to receive for the term. This means that 60% of the student’s scheduled or disbursed federal aid remains unearned and must be returned to the federal program(s). Once the student completes 60% of the term, he/she has earned 100% of his/her financial aid. Thus, no financial aid will be returned. The refund percentage is determined by dividing the number of days the student attended in the quarter/session by the number of days in the quarter/session. This calculation may result in the student’s overpayment in one or more of the Title IV programs. Students in an overpayment situation will be responsible to the school to make restitution for the overpayment. In accordance with the federal policy, unearned aid will be returned in the following order. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

This policy does not affect the student’s charges. The University’s withdrawal policy will be used to determine the reduction, if any, in the student’s tuition and/or room and board charges. The student is responsible for paying any outstanding charges to the University. The University will document the official withdrawal date as the date the University Services or Counseling Department receives either verbal or written notification from the student. For students who do not contact these offices to withdraw, an unofficial withdrawal date will be the date the Registrar or Counseling Department is notified by the instructor that the student is no longer attending classes. Unofficial withdrawals may have a greater adverse effect on financial aid and/or tuition costs than the official withdrawal.

TUITION Students who withdraw from classes during the refund period are subject to repaying a percentage of their grants and student loans in accordance with Federal Law and the University of Northwestern Ohio’s refund procedures.

COURSE DROP POLICY When a course is dropped, but the student has not completely withdrawn, the following institutional policy is used in determining the adjustment to tuition. •

Students who drop one or more courses on or before the second (2nd) calendar day of the term will be credited 100% tuition for that course/courses.

•

Students who drop one or more courses on or before the eighth (8th) calendar day of the term will be credited 75% tuition for that course/courses.

•

Students who drop one or more courses on or before the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of the term will be credited 50% tuition for that course/courses.

•

Students who drop one or more courses on or before the twenty-second (22nd) calendar day of the term will be credited 25% tuition for that course/courses.

•

Students who drop one or more courses after the twenty-second (22nd) calendar day of the term will not receive tuition credit for that course/courses.

Students’ financial aid may be adjusted whenever they add or drop classes or completely withdraw. Refunds, both to financial aid and/or the student, will be made within 30 days after the student’s date of withdrawal (the date the student notifies the Registrar’s Office) as determined by the records of the University.

MEDICAL WITHDRAWAL POLICY Students who withdraw due to their own medical condition must present to the Counseling Office medical documentation indicating that they were unable to attend classes during the period of time they were absent and/ or state they cannot continue with classes. This documentation must be received within ten business days after the withdrawal is processed. Students who withdraw with approved medical documentation will be withdrawn from their courses on the date they notify the University of their withdrawal; however, a grade of WP/WS (Withdrawn Passing/Satisfactory) will be entered as the grade for the courses. Students without medical documentation will be assigned a grade of WP/ WS (Withdrawn Passing/Satisfactory) or WF/WU (Withdrawn Failing/Unsatisfactory) according to the established dates for making that determination. Tuition charges in all instances will be based on the date of notification for the withdrawal. Students withdrawing for approved medical reasons with documentation submitted at the time of withdrawal may have their catalog year for program requirements maintained for a period of up to one year from the date of withdrawal. Students in the College of Applied Technologies may also have their tuition rate maintained for the same period of time. In order to be eligible for this action, documentation must be provided in a timely manner at the time of withdrawal or immediately thereafter. In the absence of documentation, the withdrawal will be processed according to standard procedure.

FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS GENERAL INFORMATION The following information is about the financial aid programs and processes at the University of Northwestern Ohio. Financial aid programs are used to support the remaining costs when the student and/or family have demonstrated the need for these resources to enable the student to attend and graduate from the institution. Actual costs of attendance include tuition and general fees, housing, meals, and an estimate for books and miscellaneous living expenses, such as laundry and transportation to and from home. The University requires the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine eligibility for financial assistance programs administered by the Financial Aid Office. These funds are made available to students in the quarters or sessions they are enrolled in. The calendar year that students can receive financial aid when applying for assistance starts in the Summer Quarter (College of Business, College of Health Professions, College of Occupational Professions, and Graduate College) or June Session (College of Applied Technologies) and continues through the Spring Quarter or May Session respectively. To receive assistance for future academic years, students must have reapplied for their financial aid by completing the “Renewal FAFSA” as soon as possible after January 1, but not later than April 1, to meet the quarter or session billing statement due date. Undergraduate students must be registered for a minimum of half-time (6 hours in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions and 3 hours in the College of Applied Technologies) to be eligible to receive financial assistance including Federal and private student or parent loans. Students who are registered for less than full-time (full-time is 12 hours in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions and 6 hours in the College of Applied Technologies) will have proportional eligibility for Federal and State grants. All graduate students in the Master’s of Business Administration program must be registered for a minimum of halftime or 4 hours in the Graduate College to be eligible to receive financial aid assistance from the Federal Direct Student Loan programs. Full-time is 8 hours. The only funds that MBA students are eligible for are generally the Federal Direct Student Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans (see loans).

GRANTS Grants are financial aid awards that do not require repayment. They are available to eligible students usually based upon financial need. Federal Pell Grant The Federal Pell Grant can provide financial support to students who have the highest financial need. Students can apply for the Federal Pell Grant by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid Form (FAFSA). A student must be an undergraduate to receive a Federal Pell Grant. The regulations define an undergraduate as one who is enrolled in an undergraduate course of study and who has not earned a baccalaureate degree. Federal Pell Grants are prorated based on a student’s enrollment status and expected federal contribution. These funds are available for up to 18 quarters of attendance. Students may be eligible for more than nine months (three quarters in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions or six sessions in the College of Applied Technologies) of Federal Pell Grant funds within the same academic year if they meet the requirements set by the Department of Education. In order to receive more than nine months of Pell eligibility, students must be enrolled at least half-time, they must have received 100% of their first scheduled award, and they must have completed an academic year, or 36 credit hours, or they must be attempting their 36th credit hour within the second scheduled award period.

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) The Federal SEOG is another aid source of grant assistance for students with high need and who are eligible for the Federal Pell Grant. Students can apply for the FSEOG grant by completing the FAFSA. The funds are provided to the University and are then awarded by the Financial Aid Office. There is no separate application for the program.

FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS Ohio College Opportunity Grant The Ohio College Opportunity Grant is a state-funded grant available to eligible Ohio residents who demonstrate financial need with an EFC of 2190 or less. The grant is to be applied to tuition and general fees only. Students must be enrolled in an associate or baccalaureate degree program to receive the Ohio College Opportunity Grant. Students can apply by completing the FAFSA form. The application deadline is the last Friday in September of the award year. These funds are available for up to 15 quarters of attendance.

LOANS Loans are available to eligible students and/or their parents through a variety of need-based and non-need-based programs. Typically, student loans are offered at low interest rates and need not be repaid while the student is enrolled at least halftime. Interest rates and repayment varies according to the terms of the individual programs. Most loans require the student to complete the FAFSA form. All student loan borrowers are required to complete entrance counseling to learn about rights and responsibilities as a borrower before the first Federal Direct Student Loan funds can be disbursed. Exit loan counseling is required if the student graduates, drops to less than half-time, or withdraws. Federal Direct Education Loans The Federal Direct Education Loan Program is a set of Federal student loan programs that includes the Federal Direct Student Loan (subsidized and unsubsidized) and the Federal Direct Parent PLUS loan programs. Federal Subsidized Direct Student Loan (Undergraduate - Dependent and Independent) Under this program students are not charged any interest as long as they meet enrollment requirements (Enrolled on at least a half-time basis). The interest rate is fixed at 3.4% for subsidized loans disbursed beginning July 1, 2011. (The annual grade level amounts are noted below.) Federal Unsubsidized Direct Student Loan (Undergraduate - Dependent and Independent) This program is available to students who were either limited or determined to be ineligible for the Federal Subsidized Direct Student Loan. The amounts per grade level are the same as for the Federal Subsidized Direct Student Loan; however, the student is responsible for the interest charges while in school. In addition, all students are eligible for an additional Unsubsidized Federal Direct Student loan of $2000 per year. The interest rate is fixed at 6.8% for Unsubsidized Federal Direct Student borrowers with loans disbursed beginning July 1, 2011. (The annual grade level amounts are noted below.) Annual Amounts for dependent undergraduate students per grade level are: $5,500 Freshman (0-35 credit hours) $3,500 Subsidized/Unsubsidized + $2,000 Unsubsidized $6,500 Sophomore (36-89 credit hours) $4,500 Subsidized/Unsubsidized + $2,000 Unsubsidized $7,500 Junior, Senior (Baccalaureate Program) $5,500 Subsidized/Unsubsidized + $2,000 Unsubsidized (90 or more credit hours) Annual Amounts for independent undergraduate students per grade level are: $9,500 Freshman (0-35 credit hours) $3,500 Subsidized/Unsubsidized + $6,000 Unsubsidized $10,500 Sophomore (36-89 credit hours) $4,500 Subsidized/Unsubsidized + $6,000 Unsubsidized $12,500 Junior, Senior (Baccalaureate Program) $5,500 Subsidized/Unsubsidized + $7,000 Unsubsidized (90 or more credit hours) Annual Amounts for independent graduate (MBA) students are: $20,500 (Master of Business Administration) $8,500 Subsidized/Unsubsidized + 12,000 Unsubsidized NOTE: Current total borrowing lifetime loan limit for the Federal Direct Student subsidized and unsubsidized loan is $31,000 as an undergraduate dependent student and $57,500 as an undergraduate independent student. The graduate or professional lifetime loan limit is $138,500. 43

FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS Federal Direct Parent PLUS Loans This program is available to parents of dependent students to meet any remaining costs that other financial aid does not cover. Repayment on the PLUS loan usually begins within 30 days after the loan is fully disbursed by the lender; however, delayed repayment and deferment provisions are available. Family income is not a criterion in obtaining parental loans, but a good credit history is required. The interest rate is fixed at 7.9% for loans disbursed after July 1, 2011. Private Loan Programs There are alternative loans available for students needing additional aid. An alternative loan is a loan in which the student may borrow additional money to cover any remaining education expenses. These loans are based on creditworthiness of the borrower, and in many cases a co-borrower, and are, therefore, not guaranteed. In-school deferments of repayment, flexible repayment options, and co-borrower release options are available. For borrowers and co-borrowers with excellent credit, the rate will in most cases be lower. For more information, students should contact the University of Northwestern Ohio’s Office of Financial Aid or visit www.unoh.edu/fastchoice. Charles E. Schell Foundation - Fifth Third Bank, Trustee The Charles E. Schell Foundation Grant Program is an interest-free loan made available through the generosity of the Charles E. Schell Foundation. The individual recipients are asked to repay their interest-free loan to create a revolving loan fund at the University for future students. To be eligible students must: • Be enrolled at the University with an overall g.p.a. of 2.0 or better • Be between the ages of 15 and 25 • Be a resident of Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, or adjoining states • Be a citizen of and born in the United States • Have parents who are citizens of and were born in the United States • Have completed at least 36 credit hours To apply students must: • Complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) • Complete the Schell Grant Application • Meet with the Director of Financial Aid and Controller for an Entrance Interview • Sign the UNOH/Schell Grant Promissory Note, when notified of approval

EMPLOYMENT Students may be able to participate in Federal College Work-Study. This program allows students to work and earn money toward meeting expenses. Eligibility for College Work-Study is determined by filing the FAFSA form. College Work-Study is subject to the availability of job positions for which students can meet employment requirements. Students employed under the College Work-Study Program will be paid directly on a bi-weekly basis.

AWARD NOTICES Electronic Award Notices should be electronically reviewed through MyUNOH on the University website. This acknowledgment allows us to reserve these funds for the student when he/she enrolls. Reductions or cancellations of awarded funds should be submitted by email to financialaid@unoh.edu within a (5) five-day time period to ensure proper application of the funds to a student’s account.

VETERANS’ EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS The University of Northwestern Ohio is approved for veterans’ training in associate and baccalaureate degree programs. Numerous diploma programs in the College of Applied Technologies are also approved for benefits. This program provides eligible veterans enrolled in courses with monthly benefits through the Veterans Administration. A full-time veterans’ services officer is available to assist veterans with enrollment and counseling. 44

FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS Military personnel and veterans who are in the College of Applied Technologies and the degrees for adults (including the MBA degree) are entitled to a 10% discount on unpaid tuition only while attending the University of Northwestern Ohio. This discount is contingent upon receipt of a copy of the students’ military ID or DD214. (Other military personnel and veterans who are in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions can receive a reduced tuition rate due to their military status but are not eligible for the 10% discount.) Dependents of military veterans are also entitled to a 10% discount on unpaid tuition with the following conditions: – Dependents are classified as born children, step-children, or adopted children, and spouses. – Dependents are claimed by veterans on the most recent IRS income tax returns (exception granted for dependent children of deceased veterans). – Veterans are enrolled in DEERS or are military ID cardholders. – Military veteran dependent children must have matriculated at the University by the age of 21. – Awards will be made available in the current and future terms of enrollment once the documentation has been received. – Dependent and spouse scholarship recipients must also follow the scholarship requirements listed on Page 47. This includes the requirement that these awards are renewable provided students maintain a minimum accumulative g.p.a. of 2.5. One session or quarter of probation will be granted if students fall below an accumulative 2.5 g.p.a.

MAINTAINING FINANCIAL AID (Satisfactory Academic Progress) The University of Northwestern Ohio must publish the standards for satisfactory academic progress that students must meet to be eligible to receive Title IV financial assistance. These programs include the Federal Pell Grant, the Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, the Federal Direct Student Loans, Federal Parent PLUS Loans, and Federal College Work-Study Funds. The following policy for satisfactory academic progress is being provided to students in accordance with federal law. Students are expected to assume the major responsibility for their own progress and to carefully review these guidelines to maintain these standards required for their own individual eligibility and aid continuation. Students who receive Title IV financial aid must maintain satisfactory academic progress while attending the University of Northwestern Ohio in order to continue their financial aid assistance. A student must maintain a cumulative grade point average (g.p.a.) at or above the minimum standard described in the scale below. In addition, students must complete a cumulative minimum of 67% of their attempted coursework for the quarter or session. Total Hours Attempted 1-15 16-30 31-45 46-60 61-75 76 or more

Minimum Cumulative GPA 1.5 1.6 1.7 1.8 1.9 2.0

After each quarter and session, the financial aid staff will also review the students’ progress for those receiving Title IV aid. Depending on the students’ progress, the students’ standing will be determined as follows: Satisfactory Progress—applies to students who successfully complete the required standards for the quarter or session and financial aid is continued. Financial Aid Warning—applies to students who fail to successfully complete the required attempted number of credit hours to meet the 67% completion rate percentage or who do not meet the required accumulative g.p.a. The Financial Aid Office will notify students of this status relative to financial assistance. Students in this category may continue to receive financial aid for the following quarter or session but must satisfactorily complete the required number of attempted credit hours and achieve an overall grade point average equal to the stated standards.

FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS Financial Aid Probation—applies to students who have failed to successfully complete the required attempted credit hours to meet the 67% completion rate percentage or have failed to achieve a grade point average equal to the stated standard. However, these students have successfully appealed to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee and have been granted approval to receive financial aid for one more session or quarter. Financial Aid Suspension—applies to students who have failed to successfully complete the required attempted credit hours to meet the 67% completion rate percentage or have failed to achieve a grade point average equal to the stated standard. The Financial Aid Office will notify students of immediate termination of their financial aid. Students who receive grades of “incomplete” for one or more courses must make arrangements with their instructors to have this grade finalized. Students must contact their instructors within two weeks of returning to the University for the next quarter in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions and within the first week of the College of Applied Technologies (as required). Failure to make arrangements with the instructors or failure to correct the “incomplete” grade will change the grade to an F; the course must then be retaken. Students may repeat a previously passed course only once with the use of financial aid. Students who withdraw from classes during the refund period are subject to repaying a percentage of their grants in accordance with the Federal Law and the University of Northwestern Ohio’s refund procedures. Maximum Time Frame Federal regulations require each institution to establish a percent maximum time frame in which students must complete their programs. The maximum time frame must not exceed 150% of the published length of the program measured in credit hours attempted. Appeal of Financial Aid Suspension Students who are suspended from further financial aid for failure to meet satisfactory academic progress have the right to an appeal. Students who wish to file for an appeal must notify the Director of Financial Aid or Assistant Director in writing within two weeks from the date the student’s financial aid was suspended. Students who file for an appeal must describe in writing first, the circumstances as to why satisfactory academic progress was not made and second, the actions that have been or will be taken to make satisfactory progress in the future. Documentation supporting the explanation of the appeal must be attached. Appeals submitted without documentation may not be considered. The Financial Aid Appeals Committee will review the appeal and determine whether the Financial Aid Suspension is justified. The student will be advised, in writing, of the decision. If appeals are approved, students will be placed on financial aid probation and will receive a quarter or session of financial aid during which they must receive at least a 2.0 accumulative g.p.a. (C average) or meet the minimum standard of the academic scale as well as complete the minimum standard of 67% of their attempted coursework to be removed from financial aid suspension.

SCHOLARSHIPS Scholarship awards are gift awards and may be based on merit or criteria other than financial need as determined from filing the FAFSA. Similar to grants, scholarships also do not have to be repaid. Numerous scholarships are available to students attending the University of Northwestern Ohio through gifts to the University in the names of generous donors who wish to assist students.

Through co-curricular programs and services, BPA’s Workplace Skills Assessment Program prepares students to succeed and assesses real-world business skills and problem-solving abilities in finance, management, IT, and computer applications. The University of Northwestern Ohio’s BPA chapter is highly successful in this annual BPA showcase program at both the state and national levels; students’ trophies, medals, and plaques are proudly and permanently displayed in the 100 Building. Crossroads Bible Group The Crossroads Bible Group is a non-denominational group that was begun at the University of Northwestern Ohio to provide support and encouragement for those who practice the Christian faith and to give opportunity for nonChristians to come with questions and discussion in a non-threatening environment. The group enjoys Bible study and prayer at each meeting. The group also enjoys other activities like Christian concerts, movies, bowling, and outreach activities. Crossroads meets every Sunday the University is in session from 8:00 to 9:15 p.m. in the 400 Building Museum, Room 407.

STUDENT AFFAIRS Diesel Club The Diesel Club provides students with a diesel performance outlet. The students are currently building a pulling truck and assisting with the performance modifications in order to participate in local events. The club members have attended and worked several truck and tractor pulls by assisting the event promoters with track duties, competition line-up, and safety inspections of pulling vehicles. The Diesel Club is open to all University students and meets every Monday at 12:30 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. Digital Imaging Graphics in Technology (D.i.G.i.T.) The D.i.G.i.T. group is designed to allow students the opportunity to learn and utilize skills learned in the Digital Multi-Media associates degree but students do not need to be in this program.

In the DiGiT group, time is spent on learning, designing, and receiving hands-on experience in the media industry. Students who enjoy spending extra time working on cool projects will find that DiGiT is the student organization for them. The group does anything from websites, 3D animation, and Flash animation to posters and video productions. Various projects have been completed for use within the University and for local businesses in the surrounding communities. There are plenty of opportunities for real-world experience outside of the classroom. Drag Club The Drag Club gives students who are interested in drag racing a place to meet and network with other students who share the same interest. Upcoming events, future project vehicles, and fund raising activities are just a sample of the information that is put out at these meetings. Faculty advisors are there to help students with their own drag racing vehicles, as well as to recruit students to help maintain and crew the Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three drag cars at selected events in the tri-state area. The Drag Club also sponsors â&#x20AC;&#x153;grudgeâ&#x20AC;? races for students and faculty at Marion County International Raceway in LaRue, Ohio. In addition, involvement in the Drag Club provides an inside track in finding work on professional and semi-professional teams while still in school, where students gain invaluable experience if a career in professional drag racing is their aspiration. Several former members are currently working on professional teams that compete in the NHRA and other sanctioning bodies. Drag Club meetings are held every Wednesday in Room 602 in the 600 Building. Kappa Beta Delta Honor Society Kappa Beta Delta Honor Society is a national honor society, which was instituted on the University of Northwestern Ohio campus in the Spring of 2002.

STUDENT AFFAIRS Motorsports Team The UNOH Motorsports Team is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for students who have a passion for dirt track racing. It has been developed to give students the ability to participate as team members, at a professional level, in an actual racing environment. Students design and build the vehicles and engines used on the Motorsports team. Students can be selected as drivers based on a driving skills test that will be conducted prior to the racing season. Students work/practice during the week from 1 to 5 p.m., maintaining and preparing the cars for races. Students who are new to the team will become members on the stock car teams. Students, who are multiple year members or have distinguished themselves as exceptional team members, will work on the modified teams. Team members should have a minimum g.p.a. of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale; drivers should have a minimum g.p.a. of 3.2 on a 4.0 scale. The Motorsports Team competes on Friday nights at the University-owned Limaland Motorsports Park and during the season will travel to other venues to compete, such as Eldora Speedway, I-55 Speedway, Waynesfield Motorsports Park, and Speedweek at Volusia Motorsports Park in Florida. National FFA Organization The National FFA Organization makes a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education. Through relationships developed by the National FFA Foundation, college students can be directly connected with the best agriculturally related industries and organizations in the country. The UNOH Collegiate FFA chapter is a great opportunity for students to meet new people and practice social skills through community service, fundraising, and professional growth opportunities. Meetings are held during the first, third, and fifth weeks of the session at 12:35 p.m. and 6:05 p.m. in the 400 museum area. The UNOH FFA chapter is a chartered local unit of the Ohio Association of FFA, which is chartered by the National Organization of FFA. National Truck Equipment Association (NTEA) Intern Program UNOH has partnered with the NTEA to give students the opportunity to show their skills and knowledge by being interns. This program is offered to Alternative Fuels and Diesel students. Students must be recommended by a faculty member. Attendance and g.p.a. is also a determining factor in the selection process. Students are interviewed, and six students are selected to become interns for this conference/trade show. All expenses are paid for students to attend, and the students work in conjunction with the NTEA staff. Their primary responsibility is to manage the Hybrid Medium and Heavy Duty Truck Ride and Drive. The purpose is for students to learn of the opportunities available to them upon graduation and to find out the newest technology in the industry. This is also valuable information to have on their resume. Off-Road Club The Off-Road Club exposes students to the growing field of off-road motorsports. Club members participate in two types of activities. First, students may choose to attend and even compete in events such as tough truck racing, mud drags, and rock crawling. At the events, students work with each other as well as attending teams to repair and/or correctly modify vehicles for competition. In addition to competitions, students regularly attend trail rides, often camping out for the weekend. The Club teaches and enforces the â&#x20AC;&#x153;tread lightlyâ&#x20AC;? motto, teaching members to respect nature while enjoying their motorsport of choice. Politics Club The Politics Club provides politically active students the opportunity to socialize, discuss political topics, and promotes political awareness to those who are interested in learning more about bureaucratic matters. The club meets on campus twice quarterly and meetings normally involve discussion and debate relevant to a particular political theme. The club has coordinated a variety of activities including watching election results, brown bag lunches, and round-table discussions. 64

STUDENT AFFAIRS President’s Student Advisory Council The President’s Student Advisory Council is the voice and perspective of selective UNOH students who are recommended by their professors and who have attended UNOH for one year. These students will also serve as a focused group on specified issues. The Council meets monthly with senior University officials thinking critically about issues and challenges facing UNOH students. Race Club The Race Club at UNOH was started more than a decade ago to help students in the High Performance Motorsports program get more involved within the industry. Students can participate in a variety of organizations with the Race Club, such as ARCA, Grand Am, and Over-the-Wall. ARCA (American Race Car Association) – A partnership was formed with Ron Drager, the President of the ARCA Re/Max Series, where race club members are now traveling around the country to work with various ARCA race teams. Students in the ARCA Club have a distinct understanding of how the racing industry works and what rules and regulations need to be followed. Students will be able to intern on ARCA race teams and perform all duties as assigned by the crew chief. Grand Am – Another facet of the race team is the Grand Am Team members. Students involved in the Grand Am section of the Race Club are uniquely interested in sports car racing that takes place on road courses over the traditional oval track. Students understand the different sanctioning bodies of these types of races and are able to crew the vehicle to the race team’s satisfaction. Over-the-Wall Club – The Over-the-Wall Club helps students improve pit crew skills such as jacking, tire changing, and tire carrying. The Club concentrates on agility, mental, and nutritional aspects of the sport. Practice is on a weekly basis and includes students who are interested in participating with ARCA, NASCAR, or Grand Am style racing. SEMA Intern Program This is a very prestigious event for students. To qualify, students must be in their sophomore year of studies in an automotive/high performance or automotive/diesel area of concentration, must have applied for and been awarded a scholarship from SEMA (Specialty Equipment Manufacturers’ Association), and must have at least a 3.0 g.p.a. with minimal absences in their respective concentration. SEMA interns are interviewed by a committee for their professional insight and desire for excellence in their respective field of expertise, not to mention a desire to go to Las Vegas, Nevada, to the largest convention and trade exhibit in the automotive field. Experiencing and learning alongside some of the best manufacturers this industry has to offer, students have a very rewarding learning experience. Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) SIFE teams are on more than 1,800 college and university campuses in more than 40 countries. Its mission is to change the world through free enterprise. Students gain experience in applying their classroom education by teaching the principles of free enterprise to their communities. This organization maintains a lifelong, free virtual career fair site for alumni. SIFE membership is free to students and is sponsored by contributions from large corporations. The University of Northwestern Ohio Students in Free Enterprise Team has been the recipient of the “Regional Winner,” “First Runner Up,” “Rookie of the Year” awards, and project grants. Technical Support Team (Limaland Motorsports Park) The Technical Support Team was formed to educate students through hands-on experience. On Friday nights at Limaland Motorsports Park, instructors/coordinators find race teams that need extra help. The students are put on these teams to gain experience in racing. Some students stay with the same team all year and even go to other tracks with their team. To join, come to the pit booth on Friday nights and talk to the Technical Support Team Coordinators to be placed on a team.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS FERPA ANNUAL NOTIFICATION The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. These rights are: 1.

The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the University receives a request for access. Students should submit to the Office of the Registrar written requests that identify the record(s) they wish to inspect. The Registrar will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the Office of the Registrar does not maintain the records, the Registrar shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request shall be addressed.

The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes is inaccurate or misleading. Students may ask the University to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the University official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the University decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the University will notify the student of the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing.

The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.* One exception, which permits disclosure without consent, is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is defined as a person employed by the University as an administrative, supervisory, academic, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit); a person or company with whom the University has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a person assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks, including student workers.

FERPA designates certain information related to students as “Directory Information” and gives the University the right to disclose such information to anyone inquiring without having to ask students for permission unless the student specifically requests in writing that ALL such information not be made public without their written consent. The University shall release “Directory Information” unless students specifically request in writing that it be withheld. Please consider very carefully the consequences of any decisions by you to withhold “Directory Information.” Should you decide NOT to release “Directory Information,” any future requests for such information from noninstitutional persons or organizations will be refused. Some of the effects of your decision to withhold “Directory Information” will be friends or relatives trying to reach you and prospective employers inquiring about you, etc., requests for information will be refused.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS The University will honor your request to withhold “Directory Information,” but cannot assume responsibility to contact you for permission to release requested information. Regardless of the effect upon you, the institution assumes no liability for honoring your instructions that information be withheld. The request to withhold Directory Information must be made while the student is actively enrolled. The restriction can be revoked in writing (signature required) at any time by the student.

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY POLICY Academic integrity or honesty is the foundation for all the coursework at the University of Northwestern Ohio. Cheating and plagiarism are considered dishonest. Cheating includes, but is not limited to, copying another person’s answers on homework, quizzes, or tests, whether in paper or electronic format. Plagiarism includes using another’s work as one’s own, either paraphrasing or directly quoting without proper citation. An incident of cheating or plagiarism will be considered an offense; subsequent offenses will be met with increasingly severe penalties. Therefore, the following revised policy has been adopted: 1st Offense:

The instructor has the discretion to fail the student for the assignment and/or require another assignment or to fail the student for the course depending upon the weight of plagiarized assignment. The instructor may recommend failure after consulting with the Dean. A notice of the offense will be filed in the Dean’s office.

2nd Offense: If the student has a second offense in any class, the student will be immediately dismissed from the current class and receive a failing grade or an F for that course depending upon the weight of plagiarized assignment. The instructor may recommend failure after consulting with the Dean. If the student is found to have two offenses in two courses during the same quarter, the student will receive Fs for both courses. A notice of the offense will be filed in the Dean’s Office. 3rd Offense:

If a student is found to have committed a third offense in any class, the student will be immediately expelled from the University and receive failing grades or Fs for all courses for that quarter. If you are dismissed from the University of Northwestern Ohio for cheating or plagiarism, you may not return to the University. A notice of the offense will be filed in the Dean’s Office.

Any of the above steps may be skipped depending upon the severity of the offense. Students who have been accused of cheating or plagiarism may appeal the decision in writing to the Dean of the Colleges of Business, Health Professions, and Occupational Professions or the Dean of the College of Applied Technologies. The Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost will be consulted. The Dean’s and the Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost’s decision will be final.

REQUEST FOR GRADUATION Students in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions must file a Request to Graduate with the Advising Office. The forms are available online at the MyUNOH Portal in Campus Offices>>Registration & Advising web page and in the quarterly scheduling packet. Digital versions can be completed and sent as an email attachment to advisor@unoh.edu. Printed versions can be mailed to or dropped off at the Student Services Building. An email message or other reminder notice will be sent to all students once each quarter. 71

The Request for Graduation gives the Advising Office an opportunity to review the student’s academic program evaluation to update the anticipated graduation date and course numbers as needed and to confirm that all program requirements will be fulfilled before the anticipated graduation date. It is an essential activity that requires that the students notify the Registrar’s Office and the Advising Office of the courses they plan to take in their last three quarters. A letter will be sent to each student confirming the accuracy of the plan or with details about corrective action that is needed, including delaying graduation if all the requirements cannot be met by the anticipated graduation date. The Advising Office will send a reminder each quarter by UNOH email or other methods of communication through the MyUNOH Portal to announce due dates to file Request for Graduation forms. Request forms are included in each quarter’s scheduling packet and are also located in the Documents & Forms links in the MyUNOH Portal. Students with multiple programs can file one request form if all the programs are graduating simultaneously. If the student desires one program to graduate earlier than another, a request form must be completed at the appropriate time for each program. The Request for Graduation form is required in the Portfolio Capstone course. Students who fail to complete this process might cause their own delay in graduation or may not be processed by the Registrar’s Office even though all requirements are completed.

DEGREE VERIFICATION The Degree Verification process is designed to be the second step in the graduation process completed by the Registrar’s Office. Graduating students will complete the Verification of Degree Program form when they take the Portfolio Capstone course for their program. This form confirms the degree level and program from which the student is graduating as well as the intended term of graduation. The form also allows the student to provide a preferred name for the commencement ceremony. Students who do not receive this form can access it online or contact the Registrar’s Office. Completed forms may be returned to the Registrar’s Office.

GRADUATION To qualify for graduation, students must meet the course and credit requirements specified for their curricula. They must also have a 2.0 accumulative grade point average to graduate. Students should apply for graduation through their appropriate college. Students in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions should update their anticipated graduation date by emailing the new date to advisor@unoh.edu. Anticipated graduation dates are affected by scheduling decisions, terms not attended, and other plans made by the student. Each student’s current anticipated graduation date is located on the program evaluation and is posted as a link at the MyUNOH Portal. Students with multiple programs need to check each program’s anticipated graduation date. Anticipated graduation dates are not automatically updated. It is the student’s responsibility to monitor it and request it to be updated. Inaccurate anticipated graduation dates can affect financial aid eligibility.

Students in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions are advised to submit a Request for Graduation three quarters before a program is completed. In addition to requesting a program to be graduated by the Registrar’s Office, the Request for Graduation process requires the student to submit a formal scheduling plan three quarters before graduation and provides a well-defined graduation date. The scheduling plan allows the Advising Office to advise students to adjust their plan, if needed, to achieve graduation. Failing to file the Request for Graduation form may delay graduation if requirements are not complete or if the anticipated graduation date is not correct.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS In June, the University holds a formal graduation ceremony for all graduates from the past year. Questions concerning graduation requirements should be referred to the Registrar’s Office.

DEGREE PRINTING To request a reprint of a degree certificate, please submit a written request and include the following information: • Full Name (Maiden, if applicable) • Current Address and Phone Number • Social Security Number • Dates Attended • Date of Birth • Major • Signature Degree certificate reprints should include a processing fee of $15 made payable to the University.

Transcripts cannot be processed if the students have a Business Office hold on an account.

SECOND CHANCE PROGRAM Students who have been dismissed from the University of Northwestern Ohio and who have been out for at least seven years may apply for reinstatement (with the exception of students who are dismissed for Academic Dishonesty). They must write a letter to the Academic Committee explaining why they had not been successful and identifying the reasons they should be given a fresh start in their academic careers. Following our current guidelines for retaking failing grades and substituting courses for new major courses, the students must have 2.0 quarterly grade point average. If they are not successful, they will be dismissed with no provision for returning.

FORGIVENESS POLICY Students may repeat a class (once) in which they have received a D, F, WF, U, or WU. (Note: May take a third time dependent upon circumstances and formal request.) A student will be academically dismissed after a course has been failed a third time. When a class is repeated, only the higher grade will be calculated in the grade point average. The course and grade earned previously will remain on students’ records. Students are expected to pay for the course each time it is taken. Students who are scheduled for First Year Experience/Portfolio Capstone are required to attend. Those failing to attend will be charged for the course and will receive a failing grade. The failing grade will remain on the student’s final transcript permanently.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS If students have declared a change of major, students may petition through the Registrar’s Office to take other classes to substitute for courses where an F was received. These courses may be used only as specialized electives in the new major. General Education courses do not apply.

PRESIDENT’S LIST A student in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions who earns a 4.00 grade point average (6 credits or more) for the quarter will be named to the President’s List. Students must be in Good Standing to qualify for the President’s or Dean’s Lists.

DEAN’S LIST Students in both colleges who earn a 3.5 or better grade point average (6 credits or more) for the term will be named to the Dean’s List. Students must be in Good Standing to qualify for the President’s or Dean’s Lists.

GRADE REPORTS Final grades are posted on the University’s student access web-site at the end of each term.

If a student needs a paper grade sheet, it may be requested from the Registrar’s Office. No grade reports are mailed.

AWARDS Academic Achievement Awards At graduation, degrees are conferred with the following distinctions: summa cum laude 3.9 - 4.00 magna cum laude 3.75 - 3.89 cum laude 3.5 - 3.74 These designations are for undergraduate degree programs only.

PROFICIENCY EXAMS Students wishing to take a proficiency exam should contact the Registrar’s Office so that eligibility can be determined. Once the Registrar verifies eligibility to take the exam, students should contact the Cashier’s Office prior to taking the exam to pay the $50 proficiency fee. Students must present their receipt from the Cashier to the Registrar’s Office. Tests will then be sent to the Testing Center. Students should schedule a time to test with the Testing Center. For technical classes in the College of Applied Technologies, after the Registrar is notified that students have passed the written portion of an exam, the students must again see the Cashier to make payment for the comprehensive portion prior to taking the exam. Again, students must present their receipt from the Cashier to the person administering the exam.

EARLY / LATE EXAMS All students should request an early or late exam time only when absolutely necessary. Students wishing to take an early exam must first contact the instructor/professor of the course. Upon approval by the instructor/professor, a signed, written permission form will be given to the student. The student must take the permission form to the Cashier’s office for payment prior to taking the exam. A $25 fee will be charged per exam. The Cashier will give the student a receipt and sign the permission form verifying payment. The student must then return the form to the instructor/professor of the course. 74

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS PORTFOLIO CREDIT (CREDIT FOR EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING) Students whose non-traditional learning may qualify for college-level credit should contact the Dean’s office for eligibility. Once the Dean has determined the students are eligible, they should enroll for the UN154 Prior Learning Assessment or UN354 Orientation and Experiential Learning for Accelerated Programs. All students should submit a portfolio for review for each course they would like evaluated for potential credit. The portfolio would need to be submitted to the Dean so that he may assign the appropriate faculty member to review it. After submitting a portfolio, students should contact the Cashier’s office to pay the fee. All fees need to be paid before the portfolio will be reviewed. The Registrar’s office will notify students of the results of the review.

DEFINITION OF A CREDIT HOUR The College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions operates on a quarterly system. Traditionally, one quarter hour of credit is one class period per week. For example, all five-hour classes will meet five days per week for 45 minutes per day. The College of Applied Technologies operates on six-week sessions. Technical classes meet for 20 hours Monday through Thursday. Distance Learning does not follow the traditional Carnegie unit. The accelerated and the MBA on-campus classes meet from 6-10 p.m. one night weekly.

ADVANCED STANDING Credit may be granted to students who have had comparable courses at a regionally accredited college or university. Students who have earned credits at a nationally accredited institution may transfer credits conditionally. Only those grades of C or better in similar courses will be transferred after receipt of an official transcript from the institution. Students who have earned associate degrees at other regionally accredited colleges and universities will have 90 hours transferred into baccalaureate programs.

CLASS ABSENCES College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions Traditional Students: Students could be withdrawn from a class during the first seven weeks of the quarter if the following applies: 4 consecutive days absent from a daily class 3 consecutive days absent from an odd or even day class 2 consecutive days absent from an evening class Distance Learning Students: Students will automatically be withdrawn from a class after the first week if the course has not been accessed. If students do not maintain weekly contact or complete assignments, they may be withdrawn from the class. If a student decides to drop a class, the student needs to contact the Registrar to withdraw from the class. The student will be taken out of the class as of the date the Registrar is notified. The University reserves the right to withdraw students who fail to attend classes regularly or to prepare assignments. College of Applied Technologies Excused Absences: The University excuses the following absences: • Three days for death in the immediate family • Subpoena to court to testify

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS • • • • • •

Birth of Child (of whom you are the parent) Military Service Jury Duty School-supported function Inclement weather (documentation required) Emergency medical treatment/hospitalization (documentation required;excludes office visits)

This means these days are excused for grade point penalty, final and the absence. However, due to the nature of the College of Applied Technologies courses, all missed assignments must be made up. If the student misses more than one week of training, it is recommended that he/she should withdraw and retake the class over in its entirety. Verifiable documentation is required (dates and contact information). Technology students may be withdrawn from courses if they are absent for five days throughout the session. Documentation must be provided to the instructor in a timely manner to verify an excused absence to remain in courses for the session.

WITHDRAWAL OR HIATUS To insure that a student’s withdrawal from the University of Northwestern Ohio is processed in a proper fashion, a student contemplating withdrawal should meet with a Counselor in the Student Services Building prior to leaving campus. Documentation is requested when withdrawal is associated with medical or military reasons. Students residing in the dorms must also sign an exit sheet at the Housing Office, and students who have loans must also meet with the Financial Aid Office. To receive a refund of all or part of the instructional fees paid for a term, students must follow the above withdrawal procedure. The date used in calculating the amount of fees to be charged will be the date on which the completed official withdrawal request is approved. Withdrawals completed prior to the midpoint of the quarter/session will result in grades of WPs (Withdrawal Passing) or WSs (Withdrawal Satisfactory). Withdrawals completed after the midpoint of the quarter/session will result in WFs (Withdrawal Failing) or WUs (Withdrawal Unsatisfactory). Students who do not maintain continuous enrollment at the University will be updated to the program requirements found in the catalog in effect at the time of their return. This may delay graduation if new courses are required in the current requirements. For military withdrawal, please see page 36.

DROP/ADD Students who wish to withdraw from a course after the quarter starts or change their academic program must contact the Office of the Registrar. Current students in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions can change their schedule in MyUNOH during the pre-registration and late registration periods. Students must withdraw within the first half of the quarter/session to avoid failing grades. Courses may be added during the late change period during the first five days of the term by visiting the Registrar’s Office or by emailing advisor@unoh.edu and only if the student is already scheduled for the related term.

PROGRAM REQUIREMENT (CATALOG YEAR) UPDATES The catalog year for program requirements will be updated to the current catalog in the following situations: 1. 2. 76

ACADEMIC STANDINGS Students’ academic records are reviewed by the Academic Qualifications Committee at the end of each term. At that time, those students whose g.p.a. for the term or for the accumulative g.p.a. is below the required g.p.a. may be placed on warning, probation, suspension, or dismissal. During the time students are at the University, they must meet the following grade standards or be subject to academic action: Minimum Completed Credit Hours Class Level GPA Standard Diploma/Certificate Associate/Baccalaureate Freshman 1.75 1-29 hours 1-44 hours Freshman 2.00 30+ hours 45+ hours Sophomore 2.00 30+ hours 45+ hours Junior 2.00 30+ hours 45+ hours Senior 2.00 30+ hours 45+ hours Only credit hours completed at UNOH are computed into the grade point average. Other kinds of credit, such as transfer, exams, prior learning experiences, etc. do not count in g.p.a. Based on their term g.p.a. or accumulative g.p.a., students will receive the following academic notifications: Good Standing Students with the designated accumulative g.p.a.s or better are in good academic standing. Academic Warning Students earning less than the required g.p.a. for a term, but whose accumulative g.p.a. is above the minimum required, will be placed on academic warning. Academic Probation Students whose accumulative g.p.a. falls below the minimum required will be placed on Academic Probation. They will then have one term for the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions and two terms for the College of Applied Technologies to raise their accumulative average to the minimum required or they may be considered for suspension. Academic Suspension Students who are on probation and do not raise their accumulative average to the designated g.p.a. may be academically suspended for a minimum of one session or quarter. Any dorm student who is academically suspended must sign an exit sheet at the Housing Office. Suspended students must make a written appeal for re-admission. Students’ letters should explain the reason for the low g.p.a. and the steps they plan to take to raise their g.p.a. to a level of “good standing.” The letters should be submitted to the Director of Advising. Students must also meet with Danielle McClure in the Academic Skills Lab to prepare an academic success plan. This appeal must be approved by the Academic Qualifications Committee and/ or the Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost. Academic Dismissal After re-admission into the University, students who do not meet the requirements may be permanently dismissed. Students who fail the same course three times may be permanently dismissed. 77

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS Students who fail to make academic progress toward graduation for three consecutive sessions or two quarters may also be subject to dismissal. The Academic Qualifications Committee and/or the Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost may accelerate a student’s dismissal for lack of academic progress. After a seven-year hiatus, students who were dismissed from the University may apply for re-admission under the Second Chance provision. They must provide documentation that would support their claim that they could successfully complete an academic program. For graduation, students must have an accumulative grade point average of 2.00 or higher. In addition, they must successfully complete all courses in their programs.

ACADEMIC OUTCOMES ASSESSMENT The University of Northwestern Ohio has instituted an Academic Outcomes Assessment program to measure students’ academic achievement. Course syllabi indicate the goals and objectives which enable students to meet the desired University outcomes. During their programs formative students’ achievements are evaluated. At the end of their programs, summative assessments are conducted in a one-hour course Portfolio Capstone (UN292 for associate degree; UN490 for baccalaureate degree). The University is committed to helping students achieve their academic goals.

EVENING PROGRAM In the College of Business, programs offered in the evening are designed to serve the needs of the students interested in furthering their education in Accounting and Business Administration. Traditional classes for the degree programs meet Monday through Thursday evening beginning at 5:45 p.m. As part of the evening program, various continuing education courses are offered each quarter. These courses are designed to meet the educational needs of adults within the Lima community.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS ONE-NIGHT-A-WEEK DEGREES FOR ADULTS On-campus one-night-a-week programs are available--the Associate of Applied Business Degree in Business Administration, the Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration, and the Bachelor of Science Degree in Specialized Studies. These programs meet one evening each week from 6-10 p.m. The students in the Associate Degree in Business Administration program must be professionally employed and be 22 years of age.

A completed associate degree that meets the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entry requirements must be documented prior to enrollment.

DISTANCE LEARNING Majors in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions are offered through the Virtual College (VC) program. Working adults may apply for admission to this unique program, which provides the opportunity for non-traditional students to study independently. Those prospective students must be self-motivated since the program is rigorous and self-directed. Faculty are available for personal consultation through a variety of media, including e-mail. All course work must be completed within each quarter. Faculty may be reached by chat, e-mail, fax and phone. Baccalaureate-degree-completion programs are available through Distance Learning.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS ARTICULATION AGREEMENTS WITH OTHER COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES As a baccalaureate-degree-granting institution, the University of Northwestern Ohio accepts students who have completed associate degrees from other regionally accredited colleges and universities toward four-year programs in accounting, health care administration, and business administration (with additional concentrations in agribusiness management, automotive management, and marketing). Formal articulation agreements have been signed with James A. Rhodes State College, Owens College, Ivy Technical College, and Edison State Community College. Graduates from their two-year programs in the specific discipline articulate into the University’s 2+2 programs as juniors. Credits from the associate degree at the University of Northwestern Ohio transfer into the University’s baccalaureate programs. The University of Northwestern Ohio associate degree graduates in other major programs have articulation opportunities at many other colleges and universities. Students who wish to transfer to another college or university for a baccalaureate degree should check with the Admissions Office at that particular institution for transferability of credits.

INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCES UNOH students have the opportunity to experience other countries and cultures and to act as Student Ambassadors for Understanding. Two annual study trips are available. For the International Travel course, the students fly to London or another major city in Europe and visit many diverse sights. The destination varies annually and includes other European countries. Students may earn 3 hours of elective college credit. Students must be in good academic and social standing at the University to participate. The International Travel course may be taken only twice for credit. In the spring, students in the Travel and Hotel Management major take a cruise to the Caribbean and/or Mexico to learn that segment of the travel industry.

Schedules are posted online during the third week of each term. If a schedule change is necessary, see the Registrar’s Office immediately after the schedule is posted. An attempt will be made to accommodate the request but it cannot be guaranteed. It is the students’ responsibility to check their schedules on MyUNOH and request any necessary changes. It is also the students’ responsibility to check that their time preference is correct. Contact the Registrar’s Office to update your time preference. All students are scheduled according to their seniority in the College of Applied Technologies. The order of priority scheduling is categorized as follows: current, new, and then returning students. In each of these groups, scheduling is based on courses needed, time preference, and graduation date. If there is a schedule conflict or you have not been scheduled, please contact the Registrar for the College of Applied Technologies. 80

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS CLASS LOAD Students in the Graduate College carry a load of 8 credits to be full time and 4 credits to be part time. Students carrying a minimum of 12 quarter hours in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions are considered to be full-time students. The average class load is 16 to 18 quarter hours. Students in the College of Applied Technologies carrying one class of 6 credit hours are considered full-time students.

DUAL MAJORS Students may add an additional major in the College of Business, College of Health Professions, and College of Occupational Professions or College of Applied Technologies, which will necessitate additional credit hours. For example, a student may elect a dual major in Business Administration and Marketing which will require a total of 128 credit hours for an associate degree. In the College of Applied Technologies, a student may elect a dual major in Diesel Technology and High Performance/Motorsports Technology which will require a total of 184 credit hours. Dual majors are also available in the baccalaureate degree programs. Dual majors must be declared with the Registrar’s Office and will always require additional hours. Associate degree programs require courses at the 100 and 200 level, while baccalaureate degree programs require courses at the 300 and 400 level. Students must schedule courses at the appropriate level for each degree. Dual majors with a combination of an associate degree and a baccalaureate degree cannot use one course to satisfy required or elective credits in both the associate and baccalaureate degree.

INCLEMENT WEATHER The University of Northwestern Ohio rarely cancels classes due to weather conditions. However, if closing the University becomes necessary, an announcement will be made over the local and area TV and radio stations by 7 p.m. for early morning classes (College of Applied Technologies), by 6 a.m. for day classes and 4 p.m. for evening classes. Students may also call the voice mailbox at 419-998-9689 after 7 p.m. and after 6 a.m. to check on cancellations.

ACADEMIC ADJUSTMENTS GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE The University of Northwestern Ohio has adopted an internal grievance procedure providing prompt and equitable resolution of complaints alleging any action prohibited by the U.S. Department of Justice regulations implementing Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Title II states, in part, that “no otherwise qualified disabled individual shall, solely by reason of such disability, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of or be subjected to discrimination in programs or activities sponsored by a public entity.” Complaints should be addressed to 504 Officer, University of Northwestern Ohio, 419-998-3157, who has been designated to coordinate ADA compliance efforts. 1.

A complaint should be filed in writing or verbally, contain the name and address of the person filing it and briefly describe the alleged violation of the regulations.

A complaint should be filed within 10 days after the complainant becomes aware of the alleged violation. (Processing of allegations of discrimination, which occurred before this grievance procedure was in place, will be considered on a case-by-case basis.)

An investigation, as may be appropriate, shall follow a filing of complaint. The investigation shall be conducted by Cheryl Mueller, Ph.D., Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost. These rules contemplate informal, but

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS thorough, investigations, affording all interested persons and their representatives, if any, an opportunity to submit evidence relevant to a complaint. 4.

A written determination as to the validity of the complaint and a description of the resolution, if any, shall be issued by Cheryl Mueller, Ph.D., Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost, and a copy forwarded to the complainant no later than 30 days after its filing.

The ADA Coordinator shall maintain the files and records of the University of Northwestern Ohio relating to the complaints filed.

Complainants can request a reconsideration of the case in instances where they are dissatisfied with the resolution. The request for reconsideration should be made within 10 days to President Jeffrey Jarvis.

The right of a person to a prompt and equitable resolution of the complaint filed hereunder shall not be impaired by the personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pursuit of other remedies such as the filing of an ADA complaint with the responsible federal department of agency. Use of this grievance procedure is not a prerequisite to the pursuit of other remedies.

These rules shall be construed to protect the substantive rights of interested persons to meet appropriate due process standards and to assure that the University of Northwestern Ohio complies with the ADA and implementing regulations.

STUDENT ASSISTANCE AND GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE The staff at the University of Northwestern Ohio is committed to helping students adjust to the challenges of university life. This adjustment is sometimes difficult and, therefore, problems arise. The following procedures should be followed when help is needed. Academic Students are always advised to talk with their instructors if they are having problems in class or with a grade. If the problem is with the instructor, students should contact the Dean in the Colleges of Business, Health Professions, and Occupational Professions or the Dean in the College of Applied Technologies.
