Summer 2024 Schedule

SUMMER SCHEDULE 2024

Summer 2024 Important Dates

Welcome to the Lion Life at Wallace State Community College!

Summer semester is a little more laid back than fall or spring, but no less important in its ultimate goal of providing students with the essentials they need to complete a degree or certificate so that they can enter the workforce or continue their education at a four-year university. Classes sizes are usually smaller in the summer, giving you even more one-on-one attention with your professors.

The summer semester is an optimal time for incoming freshman to get a head start or for students currently enrolled at four-year universities to get ahead by taking classes that will transfer back to their college.

Whether you are entering college for the first time, retraining for a new career, a dual enrollment student, or completing a GED and embarking on a career pathway, you’ll enter one door at Wallace State. Wallace State conveniently serves students with a full complement of classes and services on campus in Hanceville and Oneonta as well as online. Day and evening classes are offered on campus, as well as hybrid and online options for those needing to work classes into busy schedules.

This summer you’ll see Mini Term options for courses that can be completed in five weeks.

At Wallace State, there are several new opportunities to enhance your experience and prepare you for the future. The College launched several new options related to electric vehicles, including options in Advanced Automotive Services, Diesel Technology and Electrical Technology. There are also new options in Culinary Arts for Hotel and Restaurant Management and Nutrition Management. The Health Information Technology program has added Revenue Cycle Management and Database Management to their offerings. Radiation Therapy, Artificial Intelligence Programming, Cloud Computing and Systems Engineering Technology are other new options. Wallace State’s Nursing program announced evening classes and a new joint enrollment partnership with Athens State University, both starting this fall.

More earn-and-learn opportunities, such as the FAME program for industrial maintenance students, a Mercedes Co-op program with our automotive service program, and numerous internships and apprenticeships with area businesses and industries allow Wallace State students to earn money and experience while completing credentials. Inquire with our Center for Career and Workforce Development to learn more about these and other opportunities.

Mini Terms are offered each semester to allow students 1) the opportunity to complete courses in less time than a regular full term, and 2) to start a class or add extra classes mid-semester. Students wishing to accelerate completion of their degree might choose, for example, to complete ENG 101 during Mini Term I and ENG 102 during Mini Term II, so that both classes are done in one semester. In the Fall and Spring Mini Terms are typically 8 weeks and 5 weeks in the Summer due to the shorter semester. Be sure to talk to your advisor if you have questions about scheduling.

NOTE: Students are encouraged to register for Mini Term II Classes during Registration April 1-June 26. Students using financial aid may not be awarded additional funds if registration for Mini Term II is completed after June 27.

Withdrawal Policy

Dropping a Course During Registration and Drop/Add Period

A student may drop a course either in person or on their MyWallaceState account during registration until the drop/add period ends. If dropping in person, a form is available at Lion Central located in the Bailey Center Lobby. The form is completed and the drop will be completed by Admission personnel. The student can view the drop when processed on their MyWallaceState account. The class and the charges will be removed from the student’s records if dropped before classes begin.

Withdrawal from a Course After Registration and Drop/Add Period Ends

Once the drop/add period is over the student may withdraw from a course and will receive the grade of W in the course. The W will be posted on the official transcript and will not be used in computing the GPA. (The W will be used in calculating attempted hours for Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) to receive financial aid.) The last date to withdraw from a course for the term is published in the current course schedule. Students can withdraw from a course via their MyWallaceState account on in person at Lion Central located in the Bailey Center Lobby. Students who receive financial aid are advised to meet

with the college Financial Aid department to determine impact on SAP.

Withdrawal from the College

A student may withdraw from the institution up to the deadline published in the course schedule. Withdrawing from all classes constitutes a withdrawal from the college. Once the drop/add period is over the student may withdraw from a course or all course and will receive the grade of W in each course in which they withdraw. The W will be posted on the official transcript and will not be used in computing the overall GPA. The W will be used in the calculation for attempted hours on SAP. The last date to withdraw from a course (or all courses) is published in the current course schedule. Students can withdraw from the college via their MyWallaceState account or in person at Lion Central located in the Bailey Center Lobby. Students who receive financial aid are advised to meet with the Financial Aid department to determine if withdrawing from all classes will impact their Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP).

Financial Aid

Students receiving financial aid should read the following information carefully:

Census/Freeze Date - Dropping a course prior to May 30, 2024, will result in a recalculation of a student’s federal financial aid which includes Pell Grants, Direct Loans, and SEOG Funds. This recalculation could affect the amount of the financial aid award and may result in a balance owed to the college. Students that register for courses in subsequent terms AFTER May 30, 2024, may not be eligible to receive additional financial aid coverage for the added classes. Students should register for all classes in future terms at the beginning of the term if possible to ensure maximum federal aid. This includes Pell Grant and Direct Loans. Please check with the Financial Aid Office before adding these courses for individual questions about this process.

60% Date of Term - Dropping ALL classes prior to July 8, 2024, will result in a recalculation of federal financial aid which includes Pell Grants, Direct Loans, and SEOG Funds. This recalculation will be based on the number of days the student attended the class prior to dropping all classes. These days determine the percentage of aid the student earned for the term. A student will likely owe a portion of financial aid back to Wallace State and/or the US Department of Education if all classes are dropped prior to July 8, 2024, or if the student quits attending classes prior to July 8, 2024.

APPLY EARLY – Students applying for financial aid should apply at least two (2) months before the next semester begins. Applying early will help ensure a timely response to federal guidelines and will allow for any unforeseen problems/situations that might occur. Applying early will also help the student avoid potential long lines or waits.

BOOKSTORE CHARGES

If Pell Awards exceed the amount of tuition and fees owed, students may charge books and supplies on their Pell accounts at the WSCC Bookstore. These accounts will be open for charges Monday, May 13, 2024.

DISTANCE EDUCATION students are responsible for logging in and meeting orientation requirements for all Blackboard, Internet, and video classes. Pell funds will not be distributed until attendance is verified.

BALANCE CHECKS

Per federal guidelines, attendance must be verified before balance checks can be mailed. Students who have not been electronically verified as attending their classes by their instructors will not be able to see their Financial Aid funds on their myWallaceState account for that class that has not been confirmed as attending. As more classes are verified, more funds will be added to the student account balance that can be seen on myWallaceState student account.

256.352.8182

PLEASE NOTE: Students in DISTANCE EDUCATION courses are responsible for logging in and meeting orientation requirements for all on-line and video classes. Pell and loan funds will not be mailed until attendance is verified. Pell Grant and loan balance checks, with no holds, will begin mailing Tuesday, June 4, 2024. If you are registered in classes that begin later than Thursday, May 30, 2024 your balance check will be mailed at a later date after attendance is verified. You must attend classes prior to any funds being mailed for a particular class. Withdrawal from all classes after receiving balance checks will result in Pell overpayment and future Pell payments for WSCC or any other college will cease until the overpayment is repaid.

Attendance Verification:

Removal for classes with no AV can affect eligibility for Financial Aid and the award amount. Students utilizing federal financial aid who do not show attendance for one or more classes may have registration removed from the classes lacking attendance verification. Students will need instructor permission to re-enroll in classes that were removed for no attendance verification. Students cannot be paid on classes until we can document they started the class.

INSTITUTIONAL SCHOLARSHIP recipients must complete a 20232024 FAFSA prior to enrollment being completed. Scholarships cannot be added to the student account until the FAFSA is received.

REMEMBER

Students must re-file for Pell Grants for every academic year (Fall – Summer). The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is available online at https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa . Students applying for 2023-2024 (Fall 2023, Spring 2024, Summer 2024) Pell Grants must complete the forms with 2021 tax data. It is the student’s responsibility to provide any additional information requested by the Financial Aid Office. The Grant cannot be awarded until the student’s file is complete.

**Priority Deadline for Fall 2024 Financial Aid is June 1, 2024

Completed Financial Aid paperwork must be submitted to the Financial Aid Office and Admission requirements (ID, residency, transcripts, etc.) by the deadline of March 1, 2024, in order for funds to be available for summer semester 2024. Visit http:// www.wallacestate.edu/finaid. Students should review their myWallaceState account for individual requirements.

Tuition & Fees Cashier: 256.352.8141
