HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE

HISTORY OF HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE What began in 1917 as a small agricultural high school in the center of Hinds County is today one of the largest and most progressive post-secondary educational institutions in the state of Mississippi. Hinds County Agricultural High School in Raymond was established under the presidency of W.N. Taylor. In its first year, the institution enrolled 117 students who were taught by a faculty of eight. The school was one of several agricultural high schools that sprang up in the state during this period. In 1918, R.E.L. Sutherland became the president of the institution. Building on the legacy of Taylor, Sutherland’s leadership directed the school toward becoming part of one of the first statewide junior college systems in the nation. The first year of junior college work was offered during the 1922-23 school session and attracted a freshman enrollment of 30 students. A curriculum for sophomore students was added in 1926. During this time, the college also received accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, which guaranteed that Hinds students would have their coursework fully accepted by senior colleges and universities. President G.J. Cain served the college from 1929 to 1938, and while the college curriculum and enrollment continued to grow, so did the institution’s participation in competition. The year 1936 marked Hinds’ predominance in state contests, as the college beat literary, athletic and debate rivals. After Cain’s tenure, George M. McLendon assumed the presidency and served until 1965. Under his leadership, Hinds experienced accelerated growth, and during World War II, Hinds established the vocational division. Because of the area’s growth in business and industry, President McLendon saw the need for opportunities in vocational education. He put in place a vocational curriculum with a wide range of offerings to meet this need. Technical program offerings blossomed in the late 1960s, and an associate in applied science degree for two-year technical students was approved. This degree offering was placed in the college catalog for the first time during the 1968-69 school year. Today, Hinds offers more than 70 career and technical programs, including the new fashion merchandising and pharmacy technology programs. With McLendon’s retirement in 1965, Hinds inaugurated Robert M. Mayo as its fifth president. Enrollment, programs and services continued to increase, creating a need for more facilities. In 1970 Hinds opened the Jackson Branch, located at 3925 Sunset Drive, and continued its growth with the construction and opening of the Banks Building at the Vicksburg-Warren County Branch in 1975. The Annex Building was also added to this Branch in 1980. Dr. Clyde Muse became the president of the institution in 1978 with the retirement of Mayo. During his first years as the college leader, Hinds’ enrollment soared over the 10,000 mark. This represented the largest single institution enrollment at any state community college. Currently, Hinds is the largest community college in the state with 19,500 students. In 1982, Utica Junior College, under federal court order, merged with Hinds to form an educational institution of even greater prosperity in enrollment, facilities, program offerings and community service. The merger also saw an increased diversity in options available to students. The rich history of Utica dates back to 1903 when Dr. William H. Holtzclaw, a native of Alabama, founded the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute as a private school. For 40 years, Holtzclaw led this school as it taught students how to read and write, as well as to work with their hands. In the early 1940s, Holtzclaw handed the leadership of the institute to his son, William, who remained at its helm until 1946 when J.W. Grantham became superintendent. Grantham served at Utica until 1951. At this point, J.D. Boyd became the third president, and during his fourth year the institute was recognized by the state Legislature as Utica Institute. Boyd continued in his position until 1957 when Dr. Walter Washington became president. Under the subsequent guidance one year later of J. Louis Stokes, the institute became known as Utica Junior College and joined the other state-funded, two-year colleges in working to meet the needs of the state’s citizens. Stokes remained president until the Utica/Hinds merger in 1982. Today, the Utica Campus offers academic, technical and career programs to its students, along with residence life made possible with the addition of the B.E. Lewis, Maggie Dunson and Newton-Walker buildings. A Fine Arts Complex serving both students and the community opened in 2007 In 1982, the Jackson Campus-Nursing/Allied Health Center at 1750 Chadwick Drive was added to the existing Jackson Branch on Sunset Drive to form a comprehensive Jackson Campus. After adding the Annex Building in 1992, the Jackson Branch became known as the Jackson CampusAcademic/Technical Center. Today, the Jackson Campus features diverse curriculums ranging from academic and technical courses at the Academic/Technical Center to nursing and allied health programs at the Nursing/Allied Health Center.

HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE The year 1983 saw Hinds open its Pearl-Rankin Vocational/Career Center to offer courses to Rankin County high school students. Known today as the Rankin Campus, this Hinds location also serves college students and has the largest number of commuters in the college district enrolled in academic, technical and career programs. Facilities at this location include the Academic Library Building (1988), Academic/Technical Building (1990), George Wynne Hall (1991), Student Services Building (1992), and the Administration/Classroom Building (2001), which was purchased from a former church then located there, and the Career & Technical Building (2009), about three miles away from the main campus. The campus’ land doubled in 2007 with the addition of 60 acres. A new multi-purpose building is planned for the campus. To reflect its commitment to meet the educational needs of everyone in the Hinds district, Hinds Junior College changed its name to Hinds Community College in 1987. Recent high school graduates, adults working on a second career, industry employees who are upgrading skills and those who are taking classes just for fun are letting Hinds make a difference in their lives. Growth in business and industry saw the institution incorporate what is now the Division of Economic Development and Training in 1988 to provide customized training and services for businesses, industries, government agencies and community organizations. Through high-tech computer training, small business development workshops, corporate leadership training and a Workforce Development Center, this division works to expand the state’s economic base. The demand for job-specific training has seen the Division of Economic Development and Training grow tremendously over the years. In 1996, the Eagle Ridge Conference Center opened on the Raymond Campus. Eagle Ridge, an $8 million facility, houses is equipped with hotel accommodations, meeting rooms and state-of-the-art technology, which includes satellite up-links and down-links, video conferencing and Internet. In 1990, the Vicksburg-Warren County Branch added another learning facility known as the MultiPurpose Building, to serve high school graduates and adult learners who want to study in academic, technical and career programs. This site achieved campus status in 2002. In March 1998, Cain Hall, the flagship building on the Raymond Campus, was destroyed by fire. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the 72-year-old, 32,985 sq. ft. building was one of the two oldest remaining structures on the campus. Prior to 1982, when it was named in honor of the college’s second president, G.J. Cain, the building was known as Main Auditorium. Because of this structure’s demise, the college undertook its first major fund-raising drive – The Campaign for Hinds. The successful campaign raised not only funds for a new building, but also for student scholarships, faculty/staff development, educational technology, and cultural enrichment. The college’s Board of Trustees voted in 2001 to rename the building Cain-Cochran Hall, honoring the late W.H. and Emma Grace Cochran who were longtime public educators in the state and had more than 85 years between them in education. The auditorium is named for the late Claudia Atteberry Hogg, a well-known arts patron in Jackson and Hinds County, who along with her husband Bill, was a supporter and benefactor to the college. The Raymond Campus, where the college’s history began, added a modern Wellness Complex in 2007 for students, employees and the community. Other campus features include residence halls, an 18hole golf course and a learning assistance center which aids developmental as well as academicallytalented students. Slated to be finished during the 2009-10 school year are the new band hall and D.G. “Sonny” Fountain Hall for administrative offices, including recruiting and Hinds Connection. The Raymond Campus is still the largest of the six locations. Hinds Community College takes a lot of pride in its athletic accomplishments. The Utica Campus’ J.D. Boyd Gymnasium is home to both men’s and women’s basketball. Hinds also hosts several championship athletic programs on the Raymond Campus. Scholarship sports are offered for men in football, baseball, golf, track, soccer and tennis; and for women in soccer, softball, track and tennis. The college is a multiple recipient (12) of the prestigious Halbrook Award, presented to the state college or university with the highest graduation rate of its athletes. In 1999, the college became an active member of the Mississippi Virtual Community College (MVCC), which offers distance learning courses to students. Through the MVCC, Hinds students can take courses from their institution or from other state two-year colleges that are MVCC participants. Hinds also offers “FastTrack” scheduling options such as the two-week mini-term in May. Hinds Community College continues to take the lead in offering quality educational programs to both traditional and older students close to home at a price they can afford.

Students will also be subject to repeat a background records check based on clinical agency requirements, changes in the Mississippi law, rules, or regulations, or any suspicion of criminal behavior. Students may be required to participate in additional screening such as the Federal General Services Administration Excluded Parties List System (EPLS) and the Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (LEIE) as required by clinical agencies.

Selected programs may require a C in all courses in the program plan. Students must have successfully completed program coursework within one year for continued progression. Programs may also have other progression and graduation requirements. (See individual program plan of study.)

Meet all of the program specific requirements listed under Regular Program in college catalog. 2. Meet all of the requirements listed under Procedure for Readmission of Students in the Hinds Community College Nursing and Allied Health Student Manual (available on the College website at www.hindscc.edu). POLICY CHANGE The College reserves the right to change policies as necessary; written notification to the students and applicants approved for admission is sufficient to effect policy change.

RESIDENT REQUIREMENTS Hinds Community College observes the following definitions with regard to residential status of applicants and students as interpreted from laws engaged by the Mississippi Legislature. Students must have resolved all residency challenges with the District Admissions and Records Office by midterm of the current semester of enrollment. A student’s residency status cannot be changed after midterm and their residency status at midterm will have determined the tuition and fees for that semester. RESIDENCE OF A MINOR The residence of a person less than twenty-one (21) years of age is that of either parent. If both parents are dead, the residence of the minor is that of the last surviving parent at the time of that parent’s death, unless the minor lives with his or her legal guardian, duly appointed by a proper court of Mississippi, in which case the residence becomes that of the guardian. RESIDENCE OF AN ADULT The residence of an adult is that place where he is domiciled, that is the place where he actually, physically resides with the intention of remaining there indefinitely or of returning there permanently when temporarily absent. MOVING OF PARENTS FROM DISTRICT OR STATE If the parents of a minor who is enrolled as a student at a community/junior college move their legal residence from the State of Mississippi, the minor is immediately classified as an out-of-state student. RESIDENCE REQUIRED No student may be admitted to any community/junior college as a student or resident of Mississippi unless his residence, as defined herein above, has been in the district or State of Mississippi preceding his admission. RESIDENT STATUS OF A MARRIED STUDENT A married student may claim the residence status of the spouse, or may claim independent residence status under the same regulations set forth above as any other adult. CHILDREN OF PARENTS WHO ARE EMPLOYED BY THE COLLEGE Children of parents who are members of the faculty or staff of any institution under the jurisdiction of the board of trustees of any community/junior college may be classified as residents for the purpose of attendance at the institution where their parents are faculty or staff members. MILITARY PERSONNEL ASSIGNED TO ACTIVE DUTY STATIONED IN DISTRICT OR STATE Members of armed forces on extended active duty stationed within the State of Mississippi may be classified as residents for the purpose of attendance of state supported institutions of higher learning and community/junior colleges of the State of Mississippi. Resident status of such military personnel, who are not legal residents of Mississippi as defined under “legal residence of an adult,” shall terminate upon their reassignment for duty in the continental United States outside the State of Mississippi. CHILDREN OF MILITARY PERSONNEL Resident status of children of members of the armed forces on extended active duty shall be that of the military parent for the purpose of attending state supported community/junior colleges of the State of Mississippi during the time that their military parents are stationed within the district or State of Mississippi and shall be continued through the time that military parents are stationed in an overseas area with last duty assignments within the district or State of Mississippi, excepting temporary training assignments en route from Mississippi. Resident status of minor children shall terminate upon reassignment under Permanent Change of Station Orders of their military parents for duty in the continental United States outside the district or State of Mississippi, excepting temporary training assignments en route from Mississippi.

DISTANCE LEARNING The College has been offering distance learning courses for a number of years. Offerings are growing each semester. These courses are offered to those whose schedules and circumstances make it difficult to attend traditional classes and are designed for the student who can work independently and discipline him/her self to keep up with the assigned material.

ADVISEMENT FOR COURSE SELECTION Academic counselors and career-technical counselors assist students in course selection and educational planning. Students choosing academic, career or technical majors should seek course advisement through the counseling office to select appropriate classes for his/her major. If a student wishes, he or she may choose to be advised by a faculty member. The counselor or advisor will provide students with a plan of study which records the classes students are advised to take while they are enrolled at Hinds. After the first semester of enrollment, students are not required to see a counselor or advisor to register for future semesters. Students are encouraged, however, to seek advisement if they change their program of study (major), do not successfully complete the courses for which they register, or have questions about their programs of study. Students who register early will have the best selection of course times. Registration and advisement occur in April, May, June, July, August, November, December, and January.

DECLARATION OF COLLEGE PROGRAM OR MAJOR Each student seeking credit through Hinds Community College will indicate an intended major field of study on the initial application for admission and will make a formal declaration of his/her program or college major during the advising process.

CHANGE OF COLLEGE PROGRAM / MAJOR A student who wishes to change his/her college program/major after their formal declaration should come to one of the college counseling offices for an evaluation of previous completed course work and for course advisement for the new program. Students should recognize that changing programs/majors could result in having completed courses that will not apply to the new program/major. A student may ONLY change his/her program of study (major) during registration for the next semester of enrollment. The program change will not begin until the next term of enrollment. Veterans should be very careful in changing his/her programs/majors because they are also subject to counseling approval with the Veterans Administration Regional Office.

REGISTRATION Registration will be held at all locations of Hinds Community College. (See registration schedule for dates and times at each location.) Students will be registered on a first come-first served basis. Before being allowed to register, students must have an application on file in the District Office of Admissions and Records and must clear all admission requirements. Transfer students must have an official transcript from their former state or regionally accredited college on file in the District Office of Admissions and Records before they can register. Students should contact the Counseling Office of the location they plan to attend for course advising and scheduling. Students may pay all fees at the time of registration or they may be billed, but fees must be received in the Business Office by the date published in the fall, spring, or summer Guide to Enrollment. Students who have registered, paid tuition and are unable to attend classes should contact the appropriate Counseling Office to officially withdraw from school. A student must withdraw by the date published in the Guide to Enrollment to receive a refund. Students who have registered, have NOT paid tuition and are unable to attend classes must mail the tuition billing notice back to the Business Office with a statement indicating that they will not be attending classes. This must be done immediately upon receiving the billing so that they can be removed from classes. REGISTRATION NOTICE 1. Any class or section listed in the Guide to Enrollment for which fewer than 10 students have registered is subject to cancellation without advance notice. 2. While every effort will be made to avoid them, instructor and/or room changes may be made without advance notice.

FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT OF 1974 (FERPA) HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE Hinds Community College maintains certain policies and practices to assure compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). While students are enrolled in high school, their parents typically â&#x20AC;&#x153;ownâ&#x20AC;? their educational records. However, once students are enrolled in college, they become the owners of their personal educational records. FERPA affords students certain rights with respect to these records. These rights include the following:

Page 50

HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE 1. The right to inspect and review their educational records within 45 days from the day HCC receives a request for access. Students should submit to the Records Office written requests that identify the record(s) that they wish to inspect. A HCC official from the District Office of Admissions and Records will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the District Office of Admissions and Records, the Admissions and Records official shall coordinate with the appropriate office in order to insure that the requesting student is able to view his or her educational record. 2. The right to request an amendment to their educational records if the student believes the records are inaccurate or misleading. Students who wish to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate should write the HCC official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record that they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If HCC decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, HCC 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 he or she is notified of the right to a hearing. 3. The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student's educational records. However, there are some exceptions in which FERPA authorizes disclosure without student consent. One exception permits disclosure without consent to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by HCC in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel); a person or company with whom HCC has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee (such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks). A school official who needs to review an educational record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility has a legitimate educational interest. In addition, upon request, HCC may disclose educational records without consent to officials of another school in which a student seeks to enroll. 4. The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by Hinds Community College to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The contact information of the Office that administers FERPA is as follows: Family Policy Compliance Office U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20202-5901 The contact information for the HCC office that administers FERPA is as follows: Hinds Community College Office of Admissions and Records P.O.

If a student submits a restriction request, his or her record will be noted â&#x20AC;&#x153;confidential,â&#x20AC;? and no information will be released without prior written consent. NONDIRECTORY INFORMATION Nondirectory Information is personally identifiable information such as grades, transcripts, grade point average (GPA), and academic standing, most of which is part of a student's educational record. Educational Records are those records directly related to a student's scholastic performance and maintained by the institution. HCC does not release this information without written authorization from the student, with the exceptions mentioned in #3 above. If a student wishes to have any personally identifiable information regarding his or her educational record released, a Third Party Release form, available at any campus admissions office and on the HCC website, must be completed by the student.

ENTRANCE AND/OR PLACEMENT TESTS NOTE: ALL TESTS REQUIRE A PHOTOGRAPH IDENTIFICATION

HCC uses COMPASS (by ACT), Residual ACT Assessment, and/or National ACT Assessment to place students in appropriate courses. Academic, technical and career students must take one of these placement tests prior to registering for classes. Placement test results assist the institution in advising, placing and admitting students in appropriate course levels that match their skills and help students succeed. Students should contact the counseling office at the campus they plan to attend to schedule a test date or secure more information about the tests. COMPASS or Residual ACT testing is available for students who have been admitted or are in the process of applying to Hinds Community College and cannot take the ACT Assessment on a national test date. The COMPASS and Residual ACT cannot be transferred to other colleges, nor does Hinds accept the COMPASS or Residual ACT scores from other colleges. NOTE: many scholarships are awarded based on ACT Assessment scores (residual or National). Academic and technical students who have a high school diploma or have passed the GED may choose to fulfill the mandatory placement requirement by taking COMPASS. COMPASS by ACT is a computerized course placement test that measures skills in the areas of mathematics, reading and writing. These tests usually take a total of one to two hours to complete, results are immediate, and there is no charge for the test. Students who have ACT scores may not need to test. For more information on COMPASS visit www.act.org/compass. Students who have taken the ACT: Students who have taken the ACT, but wish to improve their placement levels may only attempt the COMPASS placement test one time. COMPASS is divided into three individual tests. A student may choose to skip any of the three tests but will not be allowed another opportunity to complete a test that was skipped. Testing must take place at least 12 calendar days before the first day of class. Students taking the COMPASS for initial placement and admission shall be given first priority to test. Students who have not taken the ACT: A student who has not taken the ACT may take the COMPASS placement test twice. The second attempt must be one week or more after the first testing date and the student should complete appropriate tutorial work (credit or non-credit) prior to taking the second test. This tutorial work may be in the form of any study preparation suitable for improving knowledge in the subject. Testing must take place at least 12 calendar days before the first day of class. A student will forfeit the second testing attempt if there are less than 12 calendar days before the start of classes for the semester. Students taking the COMPASS for initial placement and admission shall be given first priority to test. NOTE: After one unsuccessful testing it is highly advisable for non-high school graduates to enroll in GED preparation classes. Career students, except those with an associate degree or higher, or an ACT composite score of 13 are required to take the COMPASS placement test. A minimum total score of 57 or higher on the COMPASS is required to be admitted to the college. Certain career programs require higher scores for program admission. Financial aid is available to non-high school graduates who make the required scores on the COMPASS test as defined by Federal Ability to Benefit Laws. These scores are: 32 or higher in Writing Skills (English), 62 or higher in Reading, and 25 or higher in Pre-Algebra/Number Skills. For this reason, career students are urged to register early, should one or more retakes become necessary to attain financial aid eligibility. Test dates and times are available at any HCC Counseling office or in the current guide to enrollment which provides information needed prior to testing. All Students: During the first week of each term, additional testing may be available to students who are dissatisfied with his/her initial placement in Math. A student wishing to take the math by-pass test should notify the instructor during the first class meeting. The instructor will provide details regarding test dates and location. Arrangements for by-pass testing must take place during the first week of classes. The student may then be placed in the appropriate level based upon that test.

MANDATORY TESTING AND PLACEMENT PROCEDURE Placement is mandatory for all degree seeking students whose declared program of study is academic or technical. Upon his/her first registration at Hinds every student subject to mandatory placement must have complete ACT scores on file, or he/she must, at the time of registration, take placement tests appropriate to the courses for which he/she enrolls that term. ACT scores or placement test results are used to determine if a student must enroll in courses in one or more developmental areas, and if so, at what point he/she must begin. All such students are required to enroll initially in all prescribed developmental courses and must continue to enroll each semester in all consecutive prescribed developmental courses. A student’s developmental mathematics prescription is fulfilled when he/she reaches the first math course required in his/her declared program of study. A student's developmental English prescription is fulfilled with the successful completion of ENG 0123, and a student’s reading prescription is fulfilled with the successful completion of REA 0133. All prescribed developmental courses must be satisfactorily completed with a grade of “C” or better. In unusual circumstances, a student may score sufficiently high on the exit criteria to by-pass the next developmental course. In such cases, the student’s placement level will be entered into the College database to reflect the higher level; however, he/she will receive credit only for the developmental course in which he/she originally enrolled for that term. During the first week of each term, additional testing may be available through the departments for students who are dissatisfied with their initial placement in English, mathematics, or reading. For initial placement purposes, the following Enhanced ACT, ACT Compass and/or Placement scores will be used to place students in the following courses. Also, see next three pages for complete requirements about placement in Developmental Studies.

DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES Developmental Courses - Math, English, and Reading Developmental instruction is offered through the following courses: LLS 0111/0113; LLS 0121/0123, MAT 0113, MAT 0123; REA 0113, REA 0123, REA 0133; ENG 0113, ENG 0123. Based on ACT scores or placement tests, students are prescribed these courses to prepare them for success in traditional college courses. For more information on testing, please refer to the Mandatory Testing and Placement Procedures section in this catalog. Students who stop attending class before the withdrawal date or do not properly withdraw are subject to receiving a grade of "F" for non-attendance. (See the Attendance Policy in this Catalog.) Developmental courses cannot be used as electives to meet graduation requirements. Career Related Studies The Related Studies Laboratory is available to aid students who are deficient in basic academic skills to the extent that they might have difficulty succeeding in their chosen technical or career program. This laboratory is also available to help non-high school graduates who are enrolled in career programs to obtain their GED. Attendance is required for some students based upon their COMPASS scores. Transitional Students: In an effort to assist the college student who needs additional support to complete college level course work, the College requires eligible students to participate in the Transitional Student Program. First-time Transitional Students are those who meet all of the following conditions: 1. are first-time, full-time academic or technical students, 2. begin their college studies during or after Summer 2004, 3. are developmental Level 1 or 2*, and 4. have an ACT composite score of less than 18 or a SAT total score less than 870. *See definition of Developmental Levels below. Additional placement testing ( COMPASS, ACT, etc.) and/or developmental courses passed that move a student to Developmental Level 3 or out of developmental status also remove the student from Transitional status. Additional placement testing which occurs after the second week of a term becomes effective with the following term. During his/her first fall or spring semester the Transitional Student is admitted to the College on Scholastic Probation and must complete seven (7) or more semester hours with a minimum 2.0 term GPA to be placed in Good Scholastic Standing. Those in Good Scholastic Standing following the first semester will no longer fall under the Transitional Program guidelines. Transitional Students who fail to pass seven (7) hours with a minimum 2.0 term GPA, including withdrawal from all classes will be placed on Scholastic Suspension for the corresponding fall or spring semester. Suspended students may return after the absence of one fall or spring semester and will enter on Scholastic Probation and with the classification of Transitional. These students will remain transitional until the 7.0 credit hour and 2.0 GPA guidelines are both met. For returning transitional students, the 2.0 GPA may be either for a fall or spring term or cumulative. Transitional students who are scholastically suspended at the end of a fall or spring term may appeal their suspension by following the Scholastic Appeals procedure as stated in the College Catalog and in the Student Handbook. If the appeal is granted, students may enroll the next semester as transitional and on Scholastic Probation. During the summer term, students are not subject to Transitional Program guidelines; however, summer coursework does apply toward total hours earned and cumulative GPA. Transitional Students residing in campus housing must enroll in 15 semester hours, will be assigned designated residence halls, and will enroll in LLS 1151 where supervised study/college life sessions will be required. Failure to attend LLS 1151 will result in disciplinary action (13 demerits) and the student must move from the College residence hall. In addition to the required academic coursework, Transitional Students living on campus will enroll in a P.E. Activity Class or Band, and may enroll in an Orientation Class, or a Career Exploration Class. Students with physical disabilities will be exempt from the P.E. Activity Class. Developmental Courses and Levels are as follows: Developmental Level 1 All academic and technical students with an ACT composite of 13 and below and/or placement in three development courses must take the course sequences as listed below: Level 1 Students may take no more than thirteen (13) hours composed of the following: LLS 0113/0111** MAT 0113** ENG 0113** REA 0113** LLS 0123/0121** MAT 0123** ENG 0123** REA 0123** LLS/RST/RSV 1312 REA 0133** Note: LLS 1151 required for residence hall students.

HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE equal installments. Students are required to pay all previous term balances and one fourth (1/4) of the amount assessed to complete the registration process. Students wanting to participate in a deferred payment plan must go to the business office at any location and complete and sign the necessary documents. Once the agreement is completed the student will be charged a $25 set-up fee and they will be given a timeline to make payments. It is the responsibility of the students to pay their account balance by the established payment due dates. Students may visit the business office at any location or mail their payment to the Raymond business office at P.O. Box 1100, Raymond, MS 39154. In addition, the payment plan may be viewed on my.hinds cc.edu and students can make payments from their Visa card or Mastercard. For most students, the payments are due approximately one month apart. Hinds students will also be charged 3.0% interest on the outstanding balance until the plan is complete. Failure to make timely payments will result in the student's restriction from future class registration, possibly having the account assigned to a collection agency, and non-release of transcripts Clearance of Obligations: All financial or other obligations to the College must be cleared prior to the end of each semester or term. An outstanding balance for a prior semester or term must be paid before the student will be allowed to register for subsequent semesters or terms. Transcripts will not be issued if financial obligations have not been satisfied. Failure to meet financial obligations to the College could subject the student to additional late payment charges, as well as collection cost. Other Expenses that may be incurred: In addition to registration expenses, expenses may be incurred by students during the semester. The following are examples of charges that may be payable when incurred. $40 Yearbook $20 Parking Ticket $40/per Semester Wellness Membership (Raymond only) $10 Replacement Key $20 Replacement Campus ID Badge $30 Returned Check Fee $25 Behavior Fine $225 per semester for bus transportation (Utica only) $20 Replacement Hinds Debit Card $160 Commuter Meal Ticket (Raymond and Utica) $25 Payment Plan Set-up Offset of Funds: If there is an outstanding account balance, and the College has in its possession any funds payable to the student, the College reserves the right to withhold funds necessary to pay the outstanding balance and cover any collection costs incurred. Once accounts are paid, any remaining balance will be refunded to the student. Student Bank Loans: Student bank loans are disbursed each semester or term. Most bank loans are disbursed electronically. Loan disbursement information is not given over the telephone; inquiry must be made in person. Students may reference their promissory note for loan disbursement dates to determine when to expect loan proceeds. Student Refunds: Each registered Hinds student will receive a Hinds Debit Card. The Hinds Debit Card will be mailed to the student, using the address on file with the College, approximately 3 or 4 weeks into the semester. To receive any refunds from the College, a student must activate his or her Hinds Debit Card. During card activation, the student will choose how to receive his or her refund money. Students have the following options: 1. Once the College releases the funds, they can be directly deposited to the student's Hinds Debit Card Account (1 day or less) The OneAccount from Higher One is a fully functioning FDIC insured FREE CHECKING account that allows students quick and easy access to their refunds. The OneAccount has no minimum balance, no monthly fees, and free Internet banking features. With the OneAccount, students can use their Hinds Debit Card to make purchases anywhere Debit MasterCard is accepted. Students will receive an e-mail when their refund has been directly deposited to their OneAccount. Students may view detail activity of their OneAccount by accessing their OneAccount statement online at www.HindsDebitCard.com. 2. Once the College releases the funds, they can be directly deposited (ACH) to a third party bank account of the student's choice (2 - 3 business days) If students choose to have their refund electronically deposited to an already existing bank account, the transfer may take 2-3 business days from the day the College releases the funds. Students will receive an e-mail once their refund has been processed. In order to have a refund deposited to their bank account, students must activate their Hinds Debit Card making the ACH to a third party bank choice at www.HindsDebitCard.com. Regardless of how students choose to receive their refunds, they must activate their Hinds Debit Card making their refund delivery choice online at www.HindsDebitCard.com.

COLLEGE REGULATIONS ATTENDANCE-WITHDRAWAL POLICY ATTENDANCE Attendance in class is a key factor of success in college. The following procedure applies to regular academic, technical and career credit programs, including Distance Learning online courses. It does not apply to non-credit or continuing education activities. Some programs in nursing and allied health, career fields or non-credit programs require more stringent attendance policies which will be followed and will be stated in the departmental regulations for the program of study. Attendance will be recorded beginning the first day of the course or the first day the student registers for the course. The student is responsible for all work in the course. Students must attend 80% of the meetings for each course in order to receive credit for a course. For Distance Learning courses, students must participate in a minimum of 80% of the activities assigned by the instructor in order to receive credit for the course. (See Notice of Absence Procedure below.) Class enrollment status may not be challenged beyond twelve (12) months from the date that the class ended. TARDIES Failure to report to class at the beginning of the class period equals a tardy. Three tardies equal one absence. Students who miss more than fifteen (15) minutes of a class will be marked absent. A student who leaves the classroom without the instructorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s permission will be marked absent.

HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE EXCUSED ABSENCES HCC recognizes two types of excused absences: those for personal emergencies, and those for official school activities. The student is allowed to make up the work for excused absences. Student absences may be excused by the instructor for personal emergencies such as illness, or death in the student’s immediate family, or other valid unavoidable circumstances. It is the responsibility of the student to inform all instructors when absences are due to personal emergency. Instructors may require written documentation, such as verification of illness on a physician’s letterhead. Official absences are those resulting from student participation in important activities officially sponsored by the College. Students will be provided with an Official Absence Notice by the proper College official. It is the responsibility of the student to show the instructor the Verification of Official Absence form or letter. A student will be allowed to make up the class or laboratory work that was missed during an official absence. UNEXCUSED ABSENCES All absences not due to personal emergency or official school activities are unexcused. Students who are absent from a final exam without the approval of the instructor will receive a course grade of “F”. EXCESSIVE UNEXCUSED ABSENCES NOTICE OF ABSENCES must be sent when the student has accumulated excessive unexcused absences as defined below. All Excessive Absence Notices (traditional classes, online classes and college life/study hall classes) will be sent to the student by e-mail. Students taking credit courses are issued a College e-mail account upon his/her first registration for classes. It is the student’s responsibility to activate this account within three (3) days of registration or by the first day of classes and to check this account at least three (3) times per week. Excessive unexcused absences are defined as follows: 1. Fall and spring semesters - day or evening class, after the number of times that the class meets in one week plus one, based on a full semester length course. 2. Distance Learning courses during any term - when the student has three (3) missed or late assignments. 3. Four (4) week term - after two (2) days. Eight (8) week term - after four (4) days. 4. Summer session - evening class, after the number of times that class meets in one week. 5. Career Block - three (3) days of absences. NOTICE OF ABSENCE PROCEDURE The primary method by which the College communicates with its credit students concerning attendance is the students’ Go.Hinds email accounts. All credit students are responsible for activating their College email account within three (3) days of registering for classes for the first time and for checking it frequently (at least three times each week). All instructors will take roll at each class meeting and will maintain an attendance record for each student. Attendance will be recorded beginning the first day of the class or the first day the student registers for the class, whichever is later. All Instructors will make certain that each student is aware of all College policies and procedures concerning attendance, excessive absence notification, and withdrawal and will stress the student’s responsibility for reading all related requirements in the College Catalog and the Student Handbook. • A FIRST WARNING NOTICE may be sent to the student by the instructor when the student has the following number of absences: 1. Face-to-face Academic and Technical classes (all terms) The equivalent of the number of times the class meets each week based on a full-length fall or spring term (15 weeks). For full-length fall and spring terms, this will be (for example) three (3) MWF classes, two (2) MW or TR classes, and one (1) Monday-only class. For classes which meet for less than 15 weeks, the First Warning Notice may be sent when the student has missed the equivalent of 1/15 of the total time the class is scheduled to meet. For four-week summer day classes and eight-week summer evening classes, this will be one class meeting. 2. Career Block – two (2) days absence. Note: More restrictive attendance requirements may apply to specific courses and/or departments – See College Catalog. • A NOTICE OF ABSENCE must be sent to the student by the instructor when the student has twice the number of absences listed above in items 1 and 2. For face-to-face academic and technical classes, this is 2/15 of the total time the class is scheduled to meet for the entire term. For full-length fall and spring classes, this is six (6) MWF classes, four (4) MW and TR classes, etc. This “twice the number” criteria also applies to Career Block classes. • A NOTICE OF ABSENCE must be sent to a student in an on-line class who has three (3) missed or late assignments.

HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE The First Warning Notice and the Notice of Absence require the student to contact the instructor immediately to discuss the following options: 1. Return to the class. 2. Withdraw from the class with a ‘W’ during the withdrawal period if all fees are paid. 3. Withdraw from all classes on dates listed in the College Calendar if all fees are paid (See counselor in Counseling Office). 4. Be dropped from class with a grade of ‘F.’ If the student fails to contact the instructor within the number of calendar days* specified below of the senddate of the notice, he/she may be dropped from class with a grade of ‘F.’ 1. Fall and Spring full-term classes - seven (7) calendar days. 2. Distance Learning Classes – seven (7) calendar days or the last day to withdraw, whichever comes first. 3. Summer session four week classes – three (3) calendar days. 4. Eight-week classes (all terms, day and evening) - four (4) calendar days. The Admissions Office will notify the Office of Financial Aid and Veterans Affairs of the assigned ‘F’ and the last date of attendance for any student receiving Financial Aid or Veterans Benefits and who has earned an ‘F’ for excessive absences. Notes: 1. Withdrawal from a class or from school is permitted only during specific time periods during a term. See the front section of the College Catalog for the calendar. 2. “*Calendar days” do not include school holidays but do include normal two-day weekends. APPEALS The student, after consulting with the instructor, may file an appeal with the appropriate Department Chairperson, and Academic, Career-Technical, or Distance Learning Dean. The instructor, chairperson and dean will review the appeal and respond to the student. The final level of appeal may be made in writing through the Dean of Students/Location Dean for review by the Local Student Affairs Committee. NO SHOW POLICY No Shows in a class are students who attend no more than one class meeting of a section for which they are registered—even though they may be attending one or more other sections for which they are enrolled. In the case of required co-requisite courses, a student cannot be dropped as a No Show in one course and continue to be enrolled in the complementary co-requisite course. No-shows for online courses are determined by two criteria: a student who has never logged in to the course in the course management system and has not communicated with the instructor; or a student who has logged in to the course but has not completed the “check in” assignment and has not communicated with the instructor. SINGLE COURSE WITHDRAWAL ((withdrawing from one or more classes but not from all classes) Before considering withdrawing from a class or classes, a student should be aware of the following information: 1. Students on Financial Aid, Veterans Benefits, Scholarships or GSL Loans should note that dropping a class or classes may lower or stop benefits or cause repayment to be due immediately. 2. To live in a residence hall, students must maintain full-time enrollment which is twelve (12) semester hours or more during the fall and spring. During the summer the requirement is three (3) semester hours per summer term. 3. No student will be permitted to withdraw from a class or from school until all financial obligations to the College have been cleared with the Business Office. Classes which are dropped during the Drop and Add period are considered schedule changes and do not appear on the student’s record. The student initiates withdrawal from one or more classes (but not from school) in the Admissions Office. If all fees are paid and the student has not been dropped previously with an ‘F’ for excessive absences, the student will be given the withdrawal form to take to the instructor to be signed. The instructor will return the form to the appropriate office. The periods during which a student may withdraw from a class and the grade assigned are indicated below (See the College Catalog Calendar for exact dates). 1. Fall and Spring day and evening classes (full-term) A student’s record of performance begins with the second week of classes. After the drop-add period, a student cannot withdraw from a class until the beginning of the eighth week except by withdrawing from school. A student may withdraw from a class beginning with the eighth week through seven (7) calendar days before the first day of the final exam period. The First Warning Notice and the Notice of Absence may be sent until ten (10) calendar days before the start of the final exam schedule. The Drop for Excessive Absences Notice may be processed until three (3) calendar days before the start of the final exam schedule. See note below.

DEGREES OFFERED ASSOCIATE IN ARTS DEGREE Conferred on students who complete requirements for graduation in various arts and science programs, the pre-professional programs, and programs designed for transfer from Hinds Community College to senior colleges and universities. ASSOCIATE IN APPLIED SCIENCE DEGREE Conferred on students who complete requirements for graduation in the various two-year technical programs or any of the applied science fields offered at Hinds Community College CAREER CERTIFICATE OR TECHNICAL CERTIFICATE Awarded to students who satisfactorily complete requirements in the various technical and career programs at Hinds Community College.

REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION An application for graduation must be completed in the administrative office of any campus or the Office of Admissions and Records on the Raymond Campus no later than the fourth week of the semester the student plans to graduate. No degrees or certificates will be awarded until all degree requirements have been met, including the payment of all fees owed to the College. Developmental courses cannot be used as electives to meet graduation requirements. For a list of developmental courses, see page 55 of this publication. A student may graduate under the requirements of the published catalog for the current year or under the graduation requirements of the published catalog for the year the student entered Hinds Community College. Requirements, however, may not be divided between the two. Graduation exercises are held in the fall, spring and summer semesters. A student may meet the requirements for graduation by complying with one of the following: 1. Select a specialized field of study and follow the curriculum which is outlined for it in this catalog, or 2. Follow the General Program requirements for the Associate of Arts Degree, which are given in the "Academic Programs of Study" section of this catalog, or 3. Comply with the catalog requirements of the first two years of the specified four-year accredited college or university to which the student will transfer. This transfer curriculum must calculate to 64 transferable hours. Fifteen of these transferable hours must be drawn from and include at least one course from each of the following areas: humanities/fine arts; social/behavioral sciences; and natural science/mathematics. The courses selected should be survey courses rather than applied courses. 4. Associate in Applied Science Degree, Career Certificate, and Technical Certificate students are required to take an Occupation-Specific Assessment as part of their program of study, unless a program of study requires a certification or licensure examination for professional practice. If a student has met one of the above-mentioned criteria but is short six or fewer hours to graduate from Hinds, he or she may transfer up to six semester hours back to HCC from a regionally accredited institution in order to receive a Hinds degree. A minimum quality point average of 2.0 is required in order to graduate. The 2.0 GPA may be calculated using either of the two following methods. Both of these calculations will only include courses completed at Hinds Community College:

GPA of 2.0 calculated on only those courses required for graduation (See the "GRADES" section of these regulations for calculating grade or quality point average.) ONLINE STUDENTS: Students taking online courses must meet the same graduation requirements as other students. PHYSICAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS - Required On Two Campuses - Raymond and Utica Students attending the Raymond and Utica Campuses are required to fulfill the physical education requirements under the Associate of Arts General Program of Study curriculum if they are graduating under that curriculum. TRANSFER STUDENTS PLANNING TO GRADUATE: Courses and credit will be accepted up to 48 semester hours as they correspond to the curriculum of Hinds Community College, provided they are earned at a state or regionally accredited institution. All college transfer credits, military credits, etc., should be submitted via an official transcript in order to be considered towards a degree. To meet graduation requirements, a student must complete at least 25 percent of the semester hours at Hinds. Developmental courses cannot be transferred into Hinds Community College to meet graduation requirements but may be used for placement purposes.

GRADES MID-SEMESTER AND FINAL GRADES At mid-semester and at the end of the semester, the scholastic performance (grades) of students in each course is reported by the instructor. Mid-semester grades and semester grades are not mailed to the students. Grades and other information is provided to students via the College’s website. The semester grade reports become a part of the student's permanent record. Mid-semester grades are used only to inform students of their progress in class. However, in cases where a course is completed in the first half of the semester, the midsemester grade is a final grade and is recorded as such. FINAL EXAMINATIONS All students are required to take examinations at the time designated on the final examination schedule. A student who is absent from a final exam and who has made no report of personal illness or other emergencies to an instructor will not be permitted to take the examination at a later date. A student who reports an emergency to an instructor before a scheduled examination will be given a grade of "I" (Incomplete). The incomplete work must be completed within six months or by the end of the succeeding fall or spring semester. Unless the (I) incomplete grade is changed to another letter grade by this time, the (I) incomplete grade will become permanent. Students who are absent from a final examination without the approval of the instructor will receive a course grade of "0" for the final exam. EXEMPTION FROM FINAL EXAMINATION Sophomores who are actually taking a diploma at the end of the current semester are exempt from the final examination in any subject in which they have achieved an average grade of "B" or better through the last day of class prior to examination. Students should have applied by the graduation application deadline in order to be included on the “exempt list.” NOTE: There are programs that require final examinations. GRADING SYSTEM Courses are graded according to the following system: Note: Some courses do not award a grade of D. 1. Used in Quality Point Average Computation Grade Interpretation Quality Point Value Per Semester Hour A Excellent 4 B Good 3 C Average 2 D Poor 1 F Failure 0 I Incomplete 0 2. Not used in Quality Point Average Computation AU Audit IP In Progress W Withdrawal from Course NC No credit (when lab grades are included with lecture) Continuing Education Units (CEU) are awarded for some courses. These courses are generally graded according to the following system:

NOTE: A Continuing Education Unit is defined as "ten contact hours of participation in an organized continuing education adult or extension experience under responsible sponsorship, capable direction, and qualified instruction.â&#x20AC;? The CEU is used as a basic unit of measurement for an individual student's participation in an educational activity which does not award semester hour credit. Continuing Education Unit credit cannot be converted to semester hour credit and is not used to determine a student's quality point average. WITHHOLDING OF GRADES Normally, final grades for academic, technical and career students are not mailed at the end of each semester. Grades and other information are provided to students via the Collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website. However, grades may be withheld by the College for the following reasons: unpaid fees or fines, unreturned library books or audiovisual materials, incomplete admission records, or disciplinary actions. "I" INCOMPLETE GRADES An incomplete grade (I) is assigned if, due to personal illness or other emergencies, a student is unable to complete required course work by the end of the semester. It is the student's responsibility to notify the instructor and to arrange a method of completing course requirements within six months or by the end of the semester immediately following the semester in which the incomplete grade (I) was received, excluding summer sessions. Unless the (I) incomplete grade is changed to another letter grade by this time, the (I) incomplete grade will become permanent. Note that an (I) incomplete grade and a (F) failing grade have the same effect on a student's quality point average. A student may appeal a grade for just cause no later than mid-semester of the succeeding fall or spring semester after the grade was earned. AUDITING A COURSE A student who wishes to take a credit course for no credit must at the time of registration, register for the course as an audit, complete the audit form and pay the regular fee. The audit student will receive no credit, no quality points, and may not change the course from audit back to credit. The student may in succeeding semesters take for credit any course previously audited. Audit courses will be reflected on the student's permanent record as "AU" (Audit). Auditing a course should not be confused with repeating a course to raise a grade. SEMESTER CREDIT HOUR A semester credit hour is the unit of credit earned over one semester, or the equivilant, for the work associated with one class hour per week of lecture or recitation (a minimum of 750 minutes per semester). A minimum of two hours per week over the same period is required for laboratory classes (a minimum of 1650 minutes per semester). Clinical rotations and supervised work experience require a minimum of three hours per week over the period of one semester or the equivalent (a minimum of 2,250 minutes per semester). CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS WHO RECEIVE CREDIT Classification of students who receive credit at Hinds Community College is as follows: Freshman a student who has earned fewer than 27 semester hours of college credit. Sophomore a student who has earned 27 or more semester hours of college credit. Full-time student a student who is enrolled in 12 or more semester hours in a given semester or a pro rata share thereof for less than semester length courses. Part-time student a student who is enrolled in less than 12 semester hours in a given semester or a pro rata share thereof for less than semester length courses. QUALITY POINT AVERAGE (Grade Point Average) A quality point average is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total semester hours attempted. For example: ENG 1113 3 Sem. Hr. Credit Grade A (4 points) = 12 MAT 1313 3 Sem. Hr. Credit Grade B (3 points) = 9 HIS 1113 3 Sem. Hr. Credit Grade C (2 points) = 6 BIO 2513 3 Sem. Hr. Credit Grade B (3 points) = 9 BIO 2511 1 Sem. Hr. Credit Grade B (3 points) = 3 HPR 1111 ___1 Sem. Hr. Credit Grade B (3 points) = ___3 Semester Hours Attempted = 14 Total Quality Points = 42 Divide 42 quality points by 14 semester hours attempted = 3.0 quality point average.

HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE HONOR GRADUATES Students graduating from Hinds Community College with a quality point average of 4.0 are graduated Summa Cum Laude. Students graduating with a quality point average of 3.60 - 3.99 are graduated Magna Cum Laude. Students graduating with a quality point average of 3.20 - 3.59 are graduated Cum Laude. The quality point average is determined by dividing the total number of quality points by the total semester hours of work attempted. HONORS, SCHOLARS, DISTINCTIONS AND AWARDS Three E-Awards for Emphasis on Excellence and Enrichment are given during the school year. Sophomores selected to Who’s Who Among Students in Community and Junior Colleges are honored at a ceremony held in the fall semester. Awards Day is held in the spring semester for the purpose of presenting various awards (certificates, medals, ribbons, trophies, etc.) to students for outstanding achievements and/or accomplishments in all areas of college life. Departments may award the distinction of Outstanding Student in a major or subject area. A Dean's Scholar is a student who has maintained an overall 3.50 – 3.99 quality point average with an accumulation of twelve or more semester hours and has a 2.00 minimum term quality point average for the semester immediately preceding OR who has earned a 3.50-3.99 quality point average on twelve or more semester hours for the semester immediately preceding with a minimum 2.0 overall quality point average. A President's Scholar is a student who has maintained an overall 4.0 quality point average with an accumulation of twelve or more semester hours and has a 2.00 minimum term quality point average for the semester immediately preceding OR who has earned a 4.0 quality point average on twelve or more semester hours for the semester immediately preceding with a minimum 2.00 overall quality point average. Deans’ and President’s Scholars are recognized at a ceremony in the spring for their fall semester grade accomplishments. Deans’ and President’s Scholars receive a letter during the summer noting the spring semester grade accomplishments. The programs, sponsored by the College President and student services employees from all campuses are held in the spring semester and are coordinated through the District Dean of Students Office and the Honors Center. SUMMER SCHOOL Hinds Community College operates day classes in two four-week sessions and evening classes in one eightweek summer session. A student's course load may not be above twelve hours during the summer sessions without the approval of the campus instructional dean. REPEATING A COURSE A student may repeat a course already completed and in which credit has been earned in order to better his or her grade point average. A grade point average is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total semester hours attempted. In computing scholastic averages in these cases, all semester hour attempts will be included and shown on the transcript. To raise a grade point average at Hinds Community College, the course must be repeated at Hinds. When a student transfers to another institution, the policy of the receiving institution will determine the student's grade point average. SEMESTER HOURS TOTAL The usual total number of semester hours taken by a student in good standing during a regular semester is 15 to 19. The maximum number of semester hours a student on scholastic probation can take is 13. A student enrolled in less than 12 semester hours in a fall or spring semester is classified as a part-time student. Career students may take additional course work beyond their regular program provided the career adviser approves. It is recommended that students who are engaged in outside employment in addition to attending Hinds Community College give careful consideration to taking a reduced number of hours. TRANSCRIPTS Students who have met all admission requirements and business office obligations and have completed a semester at Hinds Community College are eligible to request a transcript. Transcript requests must be in writing and must include the student’s signature and the student’s ID number or Social Security number.

SCHOLASTIC PROBATION AND SUSPENSION FALL AND SPRING Transitional Students: (See the Transitional Student section of this Catalog.) Transitional Students are admitted to the College on Scholastic Probation. A Transitional Student who fails to earn seven (7) or more semester hour with a term GPA of 2.0 or greater (including those who completely withdraw from all classes), will be placed on Scholastic Suspension. Scholastically Suspended Transitional Students will remain on Probation when they are eligible to return to Hinds. A Transitional Student who earns a term GPA of 2.0 or higher on seven (7) or more semester hours, his/her standing will become Good at the end of that term.

HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE Non-Transitional Students: If a student who is in Good Scholastic Standing at the beginning of a fall or spring term earns a term GPA of less than 1.75, his/her scholastic standing will become Probation at the end of that term. If a student whose scholastic standing is Probation at the beginning of a fall or spring term earns a term GPA less than a 1.75, his/her standing will become Suspension at the end of that term provided his/her overall GPA is also less than 2.00 at the end of that term; otherwise, his/her scholastic standing will remain Probation. If a student whose scholastic standing is Probation at the beginning of a fall or spring term earns a term GPA of 1.75 or higher, his/her standing will become Good at the end of that term, provided his/her overall GPA is also 2.0 or higher at the end of that term; otherwise, his/her scholastic standing will remain Probation. Transfer students who were academically dismissed from the last school they attended, have sat out the required number of semesters and are eligible for immediate readmission, may be admitted to HCC on Scholastic Probation. Transfer students who were placed on Scholastic Probation after their last semester will be admitted to HCC on Scholastic Probation. SUMMER Summer work at Hinds cannot lower scholastic standing; however, it can raise scholastic standing from Suspension to Probation provided a student earns six (6) or more semester hours of credit during a summer term and earns a term GPA of 2.00 or higher. This work must be taken at Hinds Community College. If a student whose scholastic standing is Probation at the beginning of the summer term earns a summer term GPA of 2.0 or higher (including all courses taken in all summer terms) on a minimum of 6 hours, his/her standing will become Good at the end of the summer term, provided his/her overall GPA is also 2.0 or higher at the end of that term; otherwise, his/her scholastic standing will remain Probation. REQUIREMENTS An academic or technical student who is on probation must enroll in LLS 1413, unless he/she has previous credit in this course. A student who is prescribed and enrolled in a developmental reading course or who is enrolled in fewer than seven (7) semester hours is not required to enroll in LLS 1413. Also, a non-transitional student on Probation may not enroll in more than (16) semester hours during a fall or spring term (including LLS 1413; 13 semester hours if exempt from LLS 1413). If Suspension occurs at the end of a fall semester, the student cannot enroll again until the next summer term. If Suspension occurs at the end of a spring term, the student may enroll immediately at Hinds for the next summer term. If the conditions outlined under “SUMMER” above are satisfied, the scholastic standing will revert to probation. If these conditions are not satisfied, the suspended student cannot enroll for the upcoming fall semester. A suspended student who does not enroll for one or more fall or spring semesters will be eligible for readmission on Probation. SCHOLASTIC APPEALS Appeals for permission to continue in school when facing scholastic suspension must be made in writing to the Local Student Affairs Committee. The forms are available at the Dean of Students’ Office/operating Dean’s office. Each appeal will be considered on its own merits. Scholastic appeals have a six month statute of limitation. Appeals must be filed within six months of the end of the semester during which the Suspension occurred.

The Hinds link in item F above has alphabetical tabs added to the same document..

ORIENTATION: PROGRAMS, CREDIT COURSE AND WEB RESOURCES Hinds orientation programs are designed to answer students questions and to provide vital information. While at HIND students may meet informally with faculty, staff, and administrators; visit with student orientation leaders and other traditional and non-traditional students in small and large group sessions; and learn of the wide variety of available academic, social, and personal opportunities. Our student group leaders are especially trained to help residence hall students understand policies and procedures and to find assistance and services as new students at Hinds. We strongly encourage all entering students to attend Hinds preview programs on our campuses. Additional campus and Online Orientation information is available at http://www.hindscc.edu/Orientation. Orientation course requirements effective fall 2007: A. Full-time students (both first-time and transfers) will be required to take the orientation class (LLS 1312, RST 1312 or RSV 1312) the first fall or spring semester they attend Hinds (unless the transfer has successfully completed an orientation class at a previous institution). B. Students who fail to earn a passing grade in Orientation must re-enroll every fall or spring term and pay course fee until credit in the course is earned. Students who stop attending class will receive a grade of “F” for non-attendance. C. All new first-time residence hall students must also attend the Residence Hall Orientation (cost $30); attend all required floor meetings, register in and successfully complete the required Orientation Class (cost $65 fee for traditional class/ $85 MSVCC CD access). D. Any student (first-time, transfer, and part-time) who begins at Hinds Fall 2007 and following will be required to take the Orientation course in order to graduate from the College. Orientation is a graduation requirement in all Programs of Study. The only exceptions to this policy would be that we allow orientation credit transferred from another college to satisfy Hinds orientation requirement or a dean’s approval. The Orientation course teaches success skills for college, employment and personal finances. The financial portion of class is an integrated computer and Web-based financial life skills program. The $75 lab fee provides three months of access to the online financial training. Those with a score of 70 or higher earn a certificate from Student Financial Lab, Inc.

Students must be at least 17 years of age to live on campus, unless given special permission by the Dean of Students on the Raymond or Utica campus. A conviction for a sex offense will result in the applicant being ineligible for housing. All other felony convictions will be reviewed on a case by case basis and College Student Housing has the discretion to deny on-campus housing to an applicant who has been convicted of a felony, if it appears that the applicant has personal history that presents an unacceptable risk to the residence hall community. Failure to answer and initial the felony question on the student housing application form will result in on campus housing being denied. Each semester a $50 non-refundable room reservation fee is required to reserve a housing room for a new applicant and for returning students. In the event of application by mail, a check or money order must be written payable to Hinds Community College. Cash should not be sent through the mail. The $50 room reservation fee will be applied to the student’s account. If the student does not attend Hinds, the fee will not be refunded. A student must meet all requirements for admission, such as, application, official transcript, ACT test, COMPASS and or other placement tests before financial aid award can pay housing cost. It will be helpful if persons wanting to be roommates would send both applications and room reservation fees in together. Room assignments are made on a first-come, first-assigned basis; therefore, it is very important that the application for admission, financial aid, and housing be received as early as possible. Roommate assignments will be made based on the date of the student’s room reservation receipt and available space. To get the roommate of choice, both parties should submit an Application for Housing and a room reservation fee on the same day. Both students must meet the hall’s scholastic requirements to be assigned as roommates. Hall assignments for new students for the fall semester will be notified of their hall assignment in summer, and students for the spring semester will be assigned when the student advance registers. Housing room assignments for new students will be made according to the space available. Those students who are not assigned will be placed on a waiting list according to dates of his/her room reservation receipt number. Students will be assigned from the waiting list as soon as space is available. Students will be ISSUED A RESIDENCE HALL ROOM KEY when all of the following items are completed: (1) Meet all admission requirements and register for 12 or more hours; (2) All fees are due 10 days before the first day of class. Payment options: • show proof of full payment with a receipt, • financial aid award letter for full award and receipt for payment if balance is owed, or • proof of first payment on the HCC deferred payment plan. • If proof of payment is not shown by the student on check-in day, the student will lose

FINANCIAL AID GENERAL REQUIREMENTS Financial assistance is provided to students who have met admission requirements of the college and is to be used for educational purposes. For the student to be eligible to continue receiving Federal financial aid, he/she must file a yearly Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FASFSA). In order to receive financial aid from any Federal Financial Aid Program or Mississippi Aid Program, the student must be in good standing and must make satisfactory progress in his/her course of study according to Hinds Community College Policy for Satisfactory Scholastic Progress for Recipients of Federally Funded Financial Aid and Veterans Benefits and the laws/rules pertaining to state funded programs. A student on Financial Aid suspension or Student Loan Default or owes Federal overpayment is not eligible for Federal or State financial aid. Funds for financial aid come from Federal Government Programs, Hinds Community College, the State of Mississippi, individuals, and local civic organizations. The amount of money available for each award year depends upon the amount of money made available for the institution from these sources. COMPASS SCORE REQUIREMENTS: ABILITY TO BENEFIT TESTS AND PASSING SCORES REQUIRED FOR CERTAIN CAREER STUDENTS TO RECEIVE FINANCIAL AID Career students who do not have a regular high school diploma, college degree or GED must make the appropriate scores on the Compass Test. COMPASS ACT passing scores that meet minimum Federal standards for Ability to Benefit requirements are as follows: Reading (62), Pre-Algebra number skills (25), Writing (English/Language) (32). When a student passes the Compass Test, it is his or her responsibility to notify Financial Aid to receive his or her award letter of Title IV funds. Title IV Financial Aid Programs include the Federal Pell Grant, Federal Family Education Loan, Federal Work-Study, Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant (FSEOG), and Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership (LEAP) and Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG.) HOW TO APPLY To be considered for any type of financial aid listed below, students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. The Department of Education will forward information which is vital to the Financial Aid Office in determining how much aid can be awarded to each student.

I. I. Status Review and Notification: At the end of each fall and spring semester, the Office of Financial Aid/Veterans’ Affairs will notify in writing all students who fail to meet conditions 1 and 2 above. A student who begins a semester with a satisfactory financial aid/veterans’ status but who fails to meet conditions 1 and 2 will be placed on Probationary financial aid/veterans’ status. A student on financial aid/veterans’ probation will be able to receive financial aid/veterans’ benefits for which they are eligible for their next semester in attendance. The written notice will serve as a warning to such students that failure to meet conditions 1 and 2 during a probationary semester will result in an Unsatisfactory financial aid/veterans’ status and will prevent them from receiving financial aid/veterans’ benefits during future semesters until they re-establish their eligibility. The Office of Financial Aid/Veterans’ Affairs will also send written or email notice to students who are suspended from financial aid/veterans’ benefits at the end of each fall and spring semester. A student may re-establish his/her eligibility for receiving financial aid/veterans’ benefits by meeting conditions 1 and 2 above while paying his/her own fees without Title IV federal financial aid or Veterans’ Educational Benefits. II. Withdrawals, Repeated, Remedial, Non-Credit, and Incomplete Courses: • “W’s” will be counted in evaluating the number of semester hours attempted for the purpose of determining eligibility to receive financial aid, but “W’s” will not be counted in evaluating the number of semester hours attempted for the purpose of determining eligibility to receive veteran’s benefits. “W’s” will not be used in calculating a student’s grade point average (GPA). • A student will be allowed to repeat a course according to the policies stated in the College Catalog; however, all repeated courses will be included in total hours attempted for the purpose of determining eligibility to receive financial aid/veterans’ benefits. • Semester hours of remedial/developmental courses will be recorded as hours attempted, but non-credit courses will not be counted in hours attempted. • An incomplete (I) grade will have the same effect as a failing (F) grade when calculating quality points and hours attempted. III. Time Frame: Students attempting 96 or more semester hours without receiving a degree or certificate are no longer eligible for financial aid. Once a student has attempted 96 semester hours and has received a degree or certificate, he/she must contact the Financial Aid Office for re-evaluation to pursue a second degree or certificate. There are no provisions for financial aid beyond a second degree and/or certificate. IV.

Transfer Students: A student transferring to Hinds Community College from another college shall be assumed to have maintained satisfactory academic progress at his/her previous college. Hours transferred from previously attended colleges will be posted to the student’s transcript by the Office of Admissions and Records by the end of the student’s first semester at Hinds. Credit hours transferred from a previous college will be counted toward the 150% of the length of the student’s program of study.

Unsatisfactory Status Appeals Process: In extenuating circumstances such as personal illness or illness/death in the immediate family, a student may appeal an unsatisfactory financial aid/veterans’ status by filing a written Letter of Appeal Form through the District Dean of Student’s Office. Only appeals that detail circumstances which were beyond the student’s control and which affected academic performance or length of enrollment will be considered. Each appeal will be considered on its own merit. The Financial Aid/Veterans’ Appeals Committee chaired by the District Dean of Students will review the appeal and respond to the student within 30 working days. Effective fall 2006.

VETERANS AFFAIRS The Office of Veterans Affairs is available to assist all eligible veterans and dependents in making application for benefits. Academic, technical, and career courses are open (unless otherwise specified in program description) to students in either of the above categories. Every effort is made to facilitate admission into the student's choice of training programs.

In addition, ALL transcripts from schools previously attended must be furnished in order to comply with the Regulations of the Department of Veterans Benefits. CHANGING OF PROGRAMS Students receiving veterans benefits must at all times have a definite program of study declared with the Office of Veterans Affairs and be enrolled in courses leading to completion of the designated program. COUNSELING All veterans benefits recipients are required to see a college counselor to plan their course of study prior to the beginning of each enrollment period. Each student must have a signed Veterans Benefits Recipient Program Planning Sheet from his/her counselor for EACH enrollment period. The student must also sign the Program Planning Sheet acknowledging the courses recommended by the counselor. CREDIT FOR SERVICE TRAINING Educational work done by veterans while in active service is evaluated and credit given when possible. The recommendation of the American Council on Education in its handbook, Guide To The Evaluation Of Educational Experiences In the Armed Services, is used as a guide for the evaluation of all military credit. PROBATION AND SUSPENSION Students receiving veterans benefits are expected to maintain the same standards of satisfactory progress as all other students receiving financial aid. See Policy on Satisfactory Scholastic Progress for Recipients of Federally Funded Financial Aid and Veterans Benefits in this section of the catalog. Exceptions from the Policy on Satisfactory Scholastic Progress for Recipients of Federally Funded Financial Aid and Veterans Benefits are as follows: "Wâ&#x20AC;?s will not be used in calculating the number of semester hours attempted for the purpose of determining eligibility to receive veterans benefits. Veterans benefits recipients may attempt additional hours beyond the 90 semester hours allowed in the policy without completing a degree, as long as they file a Change of Program form with the Office of Veterans Affairs and are maintaining satisfactory scholastic progress. Veterans benefits recipients may pursue the allotted number of degrees as outlined by the Veterans Administration. NOTE: Policies stated for veterans comply with regulations 14253, 14277, 14278, Department of Veterans Benefits. CHANGING ENROLLMENT STATUS Students receiving veterans benefits may not drop any course or stop attending any class without prior approval of the Office of Veterans Affairs and without executing formal drop/withdrawal procedures as outlined in the College Catalog. Students who fail to comply with this regulation will be liable for repayment of any resulting overpayments. (See policy below concerning overpayments.)

VA POLICY REGARDING OVERPAYMENTS Student Actions That Result in Overpayments 1. Withdrawing from a course or school. 2. Receiving a grade which does not count toward your graduation requirements. 3. Failure to have an incomplete grade changed to a grade which counts toward your graduation requirements. VA Actions Once an Overpayment is Created 1. Add interest charges and collection fees to your debt. 2. Withhold future benefits and apply them to your debt. 3. Turn your debt over to a private collection agency. 4. File suit in federal court to collect your debt. 5. Withhold approval of your VA home loan guarantee. 6. Collect the debt from your federal income tax refund.

Explanation of Mitigating Circumstances The law requires that the VA must collect all benefits paid to a beneficiary for a course for which the grade assigned is not used in computing the requirements for graduation including a course from which the beneficiary withdraws, unless there are mitigating circumstances. This means if you drop a course, unless you can show the VA that there are mitigating circumstances, you must return all the money paid to you for pursuit of that course from the start of the term, not merely from the date you dropped the course. Examples of acceptable mitigating circumstances are prolonged illness, severe illness or death in your immediate family and unscheduled changes in your employment or work schedule. Examples of unacceptable mitigating circumstances include withdrawal to avoid a failing grade, dislike of instructor and too many courses attempted. NOTE: Student is required to submit evidence to support reasons before he/she can be accepted by the VA.

HINDS COMMUNITY COLLEGE

TRANSFER TRACKS Hinds Community College offers course work to complete the first two years of most baccalaureate programs of study. Listed below are just some of the baccalaureate programs which an academic student may pursue at Hinds. Students who plan to enter Mississippi public universities or four-year colleges should be aware of the transfer requirements that may apply in individual cases. These requirements vary with ACT scores, high school preparation, and high school GPA. An academic student may earn an Associate in Arts Degree (AA) in either of two ways: (1) complete an academic program of study listed in this catalog -OR- (2) complete the first two years of any baccalaureate program of study found in any four-year college or university catalog which has become effective since the student began his/her college studies. Although one may pursue an AA degree in a specific area, the diploma issued by Hinds Community College will read â&#x20AC;&#x153;Associate in Arts Degreeâ&#x20AC;? with no reference to a major. Generally one-half of the hours required for a bachelor's degree may be transferred from a community college and applied to that degree at a four-year institution. Hinds Community College maintains a close working relationship with all Mississippi senior institutions to insure that all academic courses which are intended to transfer will do so. Individual articulation agreements are maintained with selected colleges as well as a formal overall Articulation Agreement between the Mississippi Board of Trustees of State Institutions of Higher Learning and the Mississippi State Board for Community and Junior Colleges, outlining over 160 articulated programs of study. Articulation agreements may be found at the following links: www.ihl.state.ms.us/Academic_Affairs1/downloads/ArticulationAgreement2005.pdf www.sbcjc.cc.ms.us/ Accountancy (AA-ABA) Accounting (AA-ABA) American Studies (AA-SS) Anthropology (AA-SS) Architecture* (one year only) (AA-ARCH) Art (AA-ART) Athletic Trainer (AA-PSM) Biochemistry (AA-BIO) Biology (AA-BIO) Biomedical Sciences (AA-BIO) Broadcast Journalism (AA-JRNL) Business Administration (AA-ABA) Advertising Economics Finance General Business Management Marketing Business Education (AA-BE) Business Information Systems and Quantitative Analysis (AA-CS) Chemistry (AA-CP) Clothing and Textiles (AA-HE; AA-HEIM) Coaching and Sports Administration (AA-PE) Commercial Aviation (AA-CA) Communications (AA-CMMN) Community and Regional Planning (AA-SS) Computer Science (AA-CS) Criminal Justice (see Pre-Criminal Justice) (AAS-CJ) Dietetics (AA-HE) Distributive Education (AA-EGS) Economics (AA-ABA) Education Elementary (AA-EE) Secondary (AA-EGS) Special (AA-EE) Education of the Deaf (AA-EE) Engineering (AA-EG) Aerospace Biological Chemical Civil Computer Electrical Geological Industrial

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY-PARAMEDIC (TC- EMT; AAS-EMT) Program Description: Paramedics have fulfilled prescribed requirements by a credentialing agency to practice the art and science of out-of-hospital medicine in conjunction with medical direction. Through performance of assessments and providing medical care, their goal is to prevent and reduce mortality and morbidity due to illness and injury. Paramedics primarily provide care to emergency patients in an out-of-hospital setting. The EMT-P training program is a postsecondary program drawing its students from individuals already possessing a valid EMT-Basic state certification and having completed Human Anatomy and Physiology I and II. This training program is sanctioned by the Mississippi State Board of Health-Bureau of Emergency Medical Services and exceeds those standards established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration/U.S. Department of Transportation. Classroom instruction is comprehensive including a working knowledge of all anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiological processes as well as competencybased instruction in assessment and management skills required for treatment of life-threatening problems in adult, pediatric, and geriatric patients. Clinical internships require shifts at various hospitals, including shifts in adult emergency departments, pediatric emergency departments, labor and delivery departments, coronary and intensive care units, recovery suites and operating rooms. Field internships require shifts at various ambulance services, critical care services and/or fire/rescue departments. Students must successfully initiate/observe/provide certain prescribed care during clinical and field internships. Students who complete the program are eligible to take the National Registry exam for EMT-Paramedic registration. EMT-Paramedics are certified by the Mississippi State Department of Health-Bureau of Emergency Medical Services. Central to the program is the EMT-Basic course, offered each Fall and Spring semester at the Nursing/Allied Health Center. Two options are available for paramedic training: a day option and an alternate evening option. The alternate option is designed to accommodate emergency personnel schedules, and involves evening and weekend requirements. NOTE: Refer to Section II of this catalog for Admission Requirements for Nursing and Allied Health Programs, and Special Admission and Progression Requirements for Nursing and Allied Health Programs, Emergency Medical Technology-Paramedic.
