The student鈥檚 GED total score must be a minimum of 2250 for the five parts of the examination. The minimum score for each part must be a 410.

One credit hour represents approximately 56 minutes of in-class lecture, discussion, or recitation (or 120 to 180 minutes of laboratory/studio work) per week, and 112 minutes of out of class work.

Most courses carry 3 semester hours of credit; several laboratory courses carry 4 semester hours of credit, combining a 3-hour lecture format with a 1credit lab built in.

Quality points are assigned to grades as follows: for each credit hour with a grade of A=4 quality points; A-=3.7; B+,=3.3; B=3; B-=2.7; C+=2.3; C=2; C-=1.7; D=1; F=0.聽If a student earns a grade of A in a 3-semester hour course he/she receives 12 quality points; one who earns a grade of B receives 9 quality points, and so forth. The quality point index is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the number of credits attempted, that is, the number of credits for which a student is registered, whether or not the courses are passed or failed. Since courses from which a student withdraws are not counted in credits attempted, they do not affect a student鈥檚 average.

The College abides by the provisions of the Federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974.

This act ensures a wide range of rights, including, but not limited to: information about students鈥櫬爎ecords that the College maintains, who maintains them, who has access to them, and for聽what purposes access is granted.

The act also permits the college to release 鈥渄irectory information鈥澛爓ithout a student鈥檚 consent. Directory information consists of the full name of the student as it appears聽on the official record; a student鈥檚 dates of attendance; and a student鈥檚 degree and honors and聽the dates they were awarded.

In addition, the act guarantees students鈥� access to their records and聽allows students to restrict such access to others.

If you would like to sign a FERPA Disclosure form, please stop by the Registrar鈥檚 Office聽in Spellman 101.

A health and safety exception permits the disclosure of personally identifiable information from a student鈥檚 record in case of an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or other individuals.

The school follows the provisions outlined in the regulations as follows:

The school only discloses personally identifiable information from an education record to appropriate parties in connection with an emergency if knowledge of the information is necessary to protect the health or safety of the student or other individuals.

Federal guideline: 34 CFR 99.31(a)(10) & 34 CFR 99.36

Policy for Student Identity Verification. This policy applies to all credit-bearing distance education courses or programs offered by the 91爆料, beginning with the application for admission and continuing through to a student鈥檚 graduation, transfer, or withdrawal from study.聽The purpose of this policy is to ensure that 91爆料 operates in compliance with the provisions of the United States Federal Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA) concerning the verification of student identity in distance education.

The HEOA requires that institutions offering distance education or correspondence courses or programs have processes in place to ensure that the student registering for a course is the same student who participates in the course or receives course credit. The Act requires that institutions use one of the following three methods:

• A secure login and pass code;
• Proctored examinations; and
• New or other technologies and practices that are effective in verifying student identification.

All student accounts are created from the individual student鈥檚 registration information stored in Banner (our ERP). The initial temporary password for Canvas is sent to the student鈥檚 (@stac.edu) account in order to verify the student鈥檚 identity in the class. All correspondence is linked to the @stac.edu account, which neither the student or instructor can change.

Students are responsible for providing their complete and true identity information in any identification verification process. It is against College policy for a user to give someone his or her password or to allow others to use his or her account.

91爆料 uses Canvas as its learning management system. The Canvas system integrates with University authentication services to ensure appropriate and secure student access to courses and other Student Information Systems. All users of the College鈥檚 learning management system are responsible for maintaining the security of IDs and passwords, or any other access credentials as required. Attempting to discover another user’s password or attempts to gain unauthorized access to another person’s files or email is prohibited.

At this time there are no additional student fees associated with student verification. In the event any verification fee becomes necessary needed, it will be posted on the course registration site to provide an advance alert to students.

91爆料 complies fully with the provisions of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), 20 U.S.C. 1232g. This act protects the privacy of student information in distance education by requiring, with certain limited exceptions, that the student’s consent must be obtained before disclosing any personally identifiable information in the student鈥檚 education records. Additional information on FERPA and student record access can be found in the FERPA section.

REVIEW: The Provost鈥檚 Office is responsible for developing and ensuring compliance with this policy in the College鈥檚 various Schools and administrative units. The Provost鈥檚 Office will inform School deans and administrative officers when changes to the policy are made.

Availability of Employees for Information聽Dissemination Purposes

Other聽employees, such as enrollment counselors/advisors and financial aid counselors, may also provide聽information regarding their specific areas of responsibility. Please find the聽contact information for each program in聽our directory.

The College strives to secure the information related to its students and employees. College computer and network passwords must conform to IT鈥檚 published complexity and length requirements and must not be shared with any other person, used in non-College accounts, or otherwise disclosed. Passwords must be changed immediately if disclosed or compromised. The College employs various measures to protect the security of its information resources. Users should be aware that their uses of College computer and network resources are not private. While the College does not routinely monitor individual usage, the normal operation and maintenance of the College鈥檚 computing resources require backup, logging of activity, the monitoring of general and individual usage patterns, and other such activities that are necessary for information security and the rendition of service. In addition, the College reserves the right to review, monitor, and/or capture any content residing on, or transmitted over, its computers or network at its sole discretion. The College reserves the right to limit access to its computers or network and to remove or limit access to material residing on its computers or network.
