register with the HCC Police Department within ten (10) days of enrolling in class, but not later than
A

the seventh (7th) day after the date the person begins to attend school. FL(REGULATION),
referenced below, explains in detail the process Registered Sex Offenders should follow. Sex
offenders must register with the HCCPD at the following location only:
Criminal Investigation Division of the HCC Police Department
3821 Caroline Street, Houston, Texas 77004
Monday-Friday: 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. (except during HCC closures or holidays)

11
See the Student Code of Conduct below and applicable Board policies FL(LOCAL); FL(LEGAL);
FL(REGULATION) available at: www.hccs.edu/about-hcc/policies/hcc-board-policy-manual-section-f

Academic Fresh Start


Under the provisions of the Texas Education Code Section 51.931, Texas residents seeking to

IV
apply for admission or re-admission to HCC and/or any specialized program at HCC may elect to
have academic course credit more than ten (10) years old prior to the starting date of the
semester in which they seek to enroll, not be considered as part of the admissions process. An
applicant admitted to HCC under this provision may not receive any course credit for courses
taken 10 or more years prior to enrollment. This means courses excluded under this provision
may not be counted toward a degree, GPA calculations, academic standing or to meet pre-
H
requisite requirements. Applicants interested in the Academic Fresh Start Program must meet all
HCC admissions requirements and must submit official transcripts from all previously attended
colleges and universities along with a petition found at www.hccs.edu/media/houston-

SPECIAL ADMISSIONS INFORMATION
Certain HCC programs require additional or special admissions information. Those programs are
described briefly below.

High School Student Admissions and Enrollment


Currently enrolled high school or home-schooled students may enroll in the same volume of HCC
courses (each semester) as a traditional HCC student. Students should furnish a high school

ED
transcript, TSI scores (or documentation of exemption from TSI requirements), and approval from
their high school. These students will need to maintain a “C” average to continue taking courses at
HCC without limitations.

Dual Credit
To be eligible for any dual credit course, the student may be currently enrolled in a public-school
district, charter, private school, or homeschool students with an established memorandum of
understanding (MOU) with Houston Community College. All dual credit MOUs are posted at
www.hccs.edu/programs/dual-credit/dual-credit-memorandums-of-understanding.

IV
Dual Credit students must complete an HCC admission application and submit an official high school
transcript indicating PLAN, PSAT, TAKS, STAAR SAT, and/or ACT test scores (or bring the official test
score report if test scores do not appear on the high school transcript). Dual Credit students are also
allowed to take the Texas Success Initiative (TSI) Assessment to qualify for college courses taught as
dual credit. Academic Dual Credit Courses: To be eligible for academic dual credit courses, high
school students must pass the applicable areas of a Texas Success Initiative. The student may be
exempt from state mandated TSI testing if the student meets the qualifying standards on applicable
H
areas of the SAT, ACT, PLAN, PSAT, or qualifying STAAR scores by subject. Students may take college
level courses related to the area(s) of the test they pass. The student must also meet institutional
course prerequisites. Dual Credit students must take only courses that apply directly to their
pathway and degree plan.
C
In 2015, House Bill 505 removed limitations on the number of classes a dual credit student may take.
However, Houston Community College recommends that students taking more than two classes per
semester possess a 3.0 or higher-grade point average in high school coursework. Dual Credit
students, like all college students, are responsible for purchasing required textbooks and other
essential course materials. The exception would be in cases where the high school provides
textbooks. All Dual Credit instructional material is based on the recommended by the academic or
R

workforce department. The Houston Community College Board of Trustees has waived tuition and
fees for dual credit students residing within the taxing district (In-District) of the college. Students
outside (Out-of-District) taxing districts may take dual credit classes at a cost of $50.00 per course. If
taught in the high school, the dual credit class must be composed solely of dual credit and/or college
credit students, not traditional high school students.
A

For Dual Credit courses, grading criteria allow faculty the opportunity to award high school and
college credit based on the student’s performance. For further information, contact any HCC College
P-16 Director at one of the college locations.
Senate Bill 1091 limits the courses students may take. The options are to take academic core courses,
career and technical education courses, or foreign language courses. Students enrolled in Early

13
College High Schools are exempt from this legislation. Dual credit students must be placed on a
degree plan when they enroll in the dual credit program.

Articulated Credit
HCC participates in the Advanced Technical Credit (ATC) program (commonly known as statewide
articulation), provides an educational and training structure that is sensitive to the transition of high
school students to college. The process that facilitates an orderly progression through programs of
instruction is commonly referred to as “articulation.” Articulation agreements have been developed

ED
between HCC and school districts within the service area. These articulation agreements allow
students to successfully complete certain Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses in high
school to receive college credits, contingent upon enrollment in a similar Career and Technical
Education program at HCC. The high school course must be on the state-approved articulated list and
taught by an instructor who meets the HCC credential standards as defined by SACS. Students will
only be awarded articulated credit if they received a letter grade of “B” or higher in the high school
course while maintaining an overall high school GPA of at least a “C.” Students also will be awarded
credit only if the course is a requirement of their degree or certificate.
For a list of universities in which HCC has established articulation agreements, visit

IV
www.hccs.edu/support-services/transfers/agreements.
Any individuals interested in majoring in Workforce (CTE) programs who want to know if they qualify
for articulated credit under an Advanced Technical Credit agreement should contact an HCC Dual
Credit Success Coach, Advisor or the appropriate program department chair. Students may apply for
additional placement credit for no more than 25% of the degree hours. Credit for more than four
courses in any one subject area requires special approval.
H
Early College High School Students
Early College High Schools (ECHS) provide students with a “seamless” pathway from high school to
college. ECHS allows high school students to complete a two-year degree while working through a
traditional high school degree plan. After tackling this rigorous course of study, students graduate
C
high school while earning up to 60 college credits, most of which are transferable to the post-
secondary institution of their choice. ECHS provides strong support to students and their family in
obtaining entrance to, and success in, higher education. For a listing of ECHS, please visit
www.tea.texas.gov/echs.
R
A

14
Home School and Private/Charter School Students
Home-schooled students may attend Houston Community College as dual credit students. They must
meet the same requirements as dual credit students enrolled in public or private high schools and
follow the same process of admittance to Houston Community College. In addition, they must
document their status as home-schooled students, along with all pertinent information required to
register for classes at Houston Community College.
The Houston Community College P-16 Council facilitates processes, consistency, standards, and

ED
procedures for homeschoolers who attend Houston Community College as dual credit students.
Private and charter school students may take dual credit courses at Houston Community College, on
campus or online, but must work through the administration of their high school. Private and charter
schools who want dual credit as an option for their students must have established partnerships with
Houston Community College.
For more information, please contact the P-16 Director at 713-718-7651 or samuel.west@hccs.edu.

Admissions for Minors

IV
Students who are 16 years old or younger AND have graduated from high school may be eligible for
special admission to Houston Community College. Applicants who are admitted under the special
admission process can enroll in college courses at an HCC campus or online.
In addition to the regular admission process, students age 16 years or younger must:
• Show proof of education indicating graduation from public high school or completed
secondary education according to the same general standards as those students who
H
graduated from public high school; and
• Once admitted, meet with the Dean of Student Success prior to registering for the first
semester.
Students under the age of 14 must have a parent or legal guardian available at the HCC campus site
at all times when their child is attending each class. This is required to help monitor the student’s
C
activities and to be immediately available in case of an emergency. While on site at HCC, the parent
or legal guardian cannot be in the student’s classroom. Failure to be available on campus or
insistence on being in the student’s classroom will cause the student to be removed from each
enrolled class.
R

Non-Degree Seeking
A non-degree seeking applicant is admitted on the basis that coursework will be taken for personal
enrichment and not for the purpose of seeking a degree or certificate. Non-degree seeking students
may not enroll in more than a total of 12 semester credit hours and are not eligible for state or
federal financial aid.

15
SPECIAL PROGRAM ADMISSIONS
Certain HCC programs are available to students meeting special criteria. Those programs are
described below. Students seeking admission to special programs should identify the programs to
which they want to apply, and follow the directions on the corresponding website.

Upward Bound
Upward Bound (UB) Program emerged as the first federal program from the Economic Opportunity

ED
Act of 1964. Two other programs joined by 1968 to form TRIO, those program were Talent Search
and Student Support Services. Today there are nine programs under the TRIO umbrella and seven of
them provide services directly to students.
Upward Bound is a federal program sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education to provide
fundamental support to participants in their preparation for college. UB provides opportunities to
high school students from low-income families, from families in which neither parent holds a
bachelor degree, and who show an academic need. The mission of UB is to assist high school
students to complete secondary education, and enroll in and graduate from institutions of
postsecondary education. Upward Bound takes a holistic approach in preparing the students

an early supporter of TRIO programs and has hosted Upward Bound on its campuses since 1974 at
Central Campus. In 1999, HCC applied and was granted a second Upward Bound program at
Southeast Campus. Combined, HCC serves around 200 high school students as part of their Upward
Bound family.
R

Upward Bound is a college preparatory program hosted at HCC and recruiting from Houston
Independent School District (HISD) at these high schools: Sam Houston, Yates, Austin, and
Northside. Each interested student will complete an application and an interview will be conducted
with the parent and the student. Students will need to submit documents with the application to
support their eligibility. Eligibility and acceptance are based on the documentation provided.

RESIDENCY INFORMATION
Establishing Residency
HCC is required by state law to determine the residency status of all students for tuition purposes.
Students who have not enrolled for two or more consecutive regular semesters (fall and spring)
must complete the residency core questions and satisfy all applicable requirements to establish
residency. Additional documentation may be requested at any time following registration. Residency

ED
is determined at the time of registration, either by a student’s current address or by the address of a
parent or legal guardian, if the student is being claimed by his/her parents or is eligible to be claimed
by his/her parents as a dependent for federal income tax purposes. A post office box can be used for
a mailing address but cannot be used to establish residency. It is the responsibility of the student to
register under the correct residency classification. A complete set of rules and regulations for
determining residency is available at each campus’s Admissions Office.
For tuition purposes, a student will be classified according to the following guidelines. The Registrar
is the final authority on all questions of residency.

Basic Residency Requirements

IV
For tuition purposes, according to Texas Education Code Section 54.075 and Texas Higher Education
Coordinating Board Rule 21.727, all students must answer a complete set of core residency questions
within the admissions application. These questions will be used by the institution to determine if the
person is a resident. The following persons shall be classified as Texas Residents and entitled to pay
resident tuition at all institutions of higher education:
• A person who was enrolled at a Texas public institution during a fall or spring semester
H
within the previous twelve months and was classified as a Texas resident for tuition
purposes.
• A person who graduated from a public or accredited private high school in this state or as an
alternative to high school graduation, received the equivalent of a high school diploma in this
state AND maintained a residence continuously in this state for the 36 months immediately
C
preceding the date of graduation, or received the diploma equivalent as applicable and the 12
months preceding the census date of the academic semester in which the person enrolled.
• A person or a dependent whose parent established a domicile in this state not less than 12
months before the census date of the academic semester in which the student enrolled in an
institution AND maintained a residence continuously in the state for the 12 months
R

immediately preceding the census date of the academic semester in which the person
enrolled in an institution.
• If basing residency on a spouse and have been married at least 12 months, residency may be
classified based on the spouse’s qualifications for residency.

In-District Residency
A

Students who have met the basic Texas residency requirements and live in HCC’s taxing district (Alief
ISD, Houston ISD, Stafford MSD, and part of Missouri City) are considered in-district residents.
Students must reside at a street address in HCC’s taxing district. Post office boxes and dormitory
addresses cannot be used.

18
Out-of-District Residency
Students who have met the basic Texas residency requirements and live outside HCC’s taxing district
are considered out-of-district residents.

Out-of-State Residency
A student who has not resided in Texas for 12 months immediately preceding registration is
considered out-of-state, except for certain exceptions described below. A non-resident student

ED
classification is presumed to be correct as long as the residence in the state is primarily used for the
purpose of attending school. To be reclassified as a resident (after one or more years of residency),
the student must show proof of intent to establish Texas as his/her permanent legal residence.
See the section on Veterans Services for information regarding residency determinations of Veterans
and Military-Affiliated Students.

International Student Residency

Government.

resident status for tuition purposes.

Undocumented Students
IV
International students living in the United States under an eligible visa permitting residence must
provide documentation and meet the same requirements as a U.S. citizen to qualify for Texas

Texas State Law states that undocumented students can be admitted to the college and be
H
considered a resident of Texas for tuition purposes if the undocumented student resided in Texas,
and met the conditions listed below:
• Graduated or will graduate from a Texas public or private high school or received the
equivalent of a high school diploma in Texas; and
• Resided in Texas for 36 months leading up to graduation from high school or receiving the
C
equivalent of a high school diploma; or
• Have resided or will have resided in Texas for the 12 months prior to the census date of the
semester in which the student will enroll in the college; and
• Sign the Affidavit of Intent to Become a Permanent Resident provided by the college that
states the student has filed or will file an application to become a permanent resident at the
R

earliest opportunity the student is are eligible to do so.


If the student does not meet these criteria, the student may still enroll, but will be classified as out-
of-state for tuition purposes.

Change of Residency
A

The change from out-of-district residency to in-district residency must be made at the time of
registration. Any address change which results in a change to in-district status must be accompanied
by adequate documentation. Changes to in-district status made after registration will be effective
the following semester. A student who qualifies for a change from out-of-state to in-state residency
status for tuition purposes may file a petition for change of residency. The petition must be filed

19
before the Official Day of Record for the regular term in order to receive any refund of excess tuition
paid for that term.

Penalties
Any student who provides false information or withholds information for proper determination of
residency, admission, or enrollment is subject to any or all of the following penalties:
• Withdrawal from all classes with no refund.

ED
• Dismissal from the institution.
• Payment of the difference in fees within 30 days.
• Loss of credit earned while under incorrect residency status.
These determinations will be made by the processes described in the Student Code of Conduct. See
Student Code of Conduct included in this Catalog or Board Policy FLB(LOCAL) for more information.

Additional Information for Non-U.S. Citizen Students


A non-U.S. citizen who is living in the United States under permanent resident status, has an
appropriate visa, or who has filed an I-485 application for permanent residency and has been issued a

IV
notice of action from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) showing that the I-485 has
been approved, has the same privilege of qualifying for resident status, for tuition purposes, as a U.S.
citizen. Anyone permitted by Congress to adopt the United States as their domicile while living in this
country is afforded the same privilege as citizens and permanent residents to establish Texas
residency for tuition purposes.

Tuition Rebate Program
Students who graduate with a baccalaureate degree from a Texas public university may qualify to
receive $1,000 from the baccalaureate-granting institution if they meet the following criteria:
• Must have enrolled in a Texas public institution of higher education in fall 1997 or thereafter;
• Must have been a resident of Texas and entitled to pay in-state tuition at all times while
pursuing the degree;
• Must have received a baccalaureate degree from a Texas public university; or
• Must have attempted no more than three hours in excess of the minimum number of
semester hours required to complete the degree in the catalog under which one graduated.

IV
Hours attempted include transfer credits, course credits earned exclusively by examination, courses
that are dropped after the official census date. Hours attempted shall not include: course credit that
is earned to satisfy requirements for a ROTC program but that is not required to complete the
degree program; course credit, other than course credit earned exclusively by examination, that is
earned before graduating from high school; and courses dropped for reasons that are determined by
the institution to be totally beyond the control of the student.
H
Students are encouraged to consult advisors to plan their course of study at the community college
level to maximize their chances of qualifying for this rebate when they transfer and graduate from a
college or university with a baccalaureate degree and to look at baccalaureate granting investing.

through the HCC Eagle Card. Students can choose either to open a BankMobile account or have
their refunds deposited to an existing account by clicking “Choose a Refund Option” button on
H
their student center page.

Credit Balances and Refunds


Credits generated as a result from dropped/cancelled courses and/or arising from overpayments
shall be refunded after the official date of record or earlier upon student request to
C
bursar.refunds@hccs.edu. Credits resulting from credit card payments shall be refunded to the
same credit card used for initial payment as the first option. However, if it is not practicable, HCC
may refund it through HCC Eagle Card. Credits resulting from cash, checks, and money order
payments will be reimbursed through BankMobile Disbursement.
Amount of refunds for withdrawals are determined in accordance with the Drop and Withdrawal
R

Refund Schedule based on total semester fees. If the student has established a payment plan,
any remaining installment payments due are deducted from the refund amount. Any reduction in
the balance due to a withdrawal will be adjusted on the remaining installments.
Course withdrawal does not release the student from the obligation to pay any balance owed to
A

the College. One hundred percent (100%) refund before class begins of ALL tuition and fees will
be made ONLY when the college chooses not to offer the class, college error is involved, or
before the applicable drop deadline. See below for additional information.

ACADEMIC INFORMATION
Course and Program Definitions
The following definitions are in alignment with Texas Administrative Code Title 19, Part 1, Chapter 4,
Subchapter P – Approval of Distance Education Courses and Programs for Public Institutions,
Section 4.257 – Definitions:
• Online Course – A course in which the majority of the instruction takes place in an online

ED
forum. An online course may include mandatory face-to-face sessions totaling no more than
15 percent of the total instructional time. Examples of face-to-face sessions include
orientation, laboratory, exam review, or in-person tests.
• Online Programs – A program in which the majority of the curriculum is delivered in an online
forum. An online program may include mandatory face-to-face courses totaling no more
than 15 percent of the total curriculum.
• Hybrid Course – A course in which approximately half of the instruction takes place in an
online forum. Hybrid courses should have regularly designated face-to-face and online
sessions throughout the academic term.
• Hybrid Programs – A program in which approximately half of the curriculum (more than 50


IV
percent but less than 85 percent) takes place in an online forum. The remainder of the
curriculum is delivered traditionally via face-to-face instruction.
Traditional Course – A course in which the majority of instruction occurs during regularly-
scheduled, face-to-face sessions in a conventional classroom environment. A traditional
course may incorporate online mechanisms to deliver portions of the course; however, the
majority of instruction should occur during the regularly scheduled, face-to-face sessions.
H
• Traditional Programs – A program in which the majority of curriculum is delivered via face-to-
face instruction. A traditional program may deliver some of the curriculum via an online
forum; however, the majority of curriculum would be delivered via face-to-face instruction.

Online Courses
C
HCC’s online courses are one to four credit hours and are equivalent to on-campus courses in terms
of transferability (no distinction is made on the transcript). Students are encouraged to visit the
Online College’s homepage at www.hccs.edu/online to see availability of online classes, certificates,
and degree offerings.

Attendance Policy
R

Students are expected to attend all lecture classes and labs regularly. Students are also responsible
for materials covered during their absences. Instructors may be willing to consult with students for
make-up assignments, but it is the students’ responsibility to contact the instructor. Class attendance
is monitored daily. Although it is the student’s responsibility to drop a course for nonattendance, the
A

instructor has the authority to drop a student for excessive absences. A student may be dropped
from a course after accumulating absences in excess of 12.5% of the total hours of instruction (lecture
and lab). For example:
• For a 3 credit-hour lecture class meeting 3 hours per week (48 hours of instruction), a
student can be dropped after 6 hours of absence.
• For a 4 credit-hour lecture/lab course meeting 6 hours per week (96 hours of instruction), a
student can be dropped after 12 hours of absence.

30
Departments and programs governed by accreditation or certification standards may have different
attendance policies. Administrative drops are at the discretion of the instructor. Failure to withdraw
officially can result in a grade of “F” in the course.
For medical issues or other problems affecting attendance, students should speak with their
instructors.
NOTE: It is the responsibility of the student to withdraw officially from a course.

Grading System

ED
HCC uses the following standard grading system:
Grade Grade Interpretation Grade Points
A Excellent (90-100) 4
B Good (80-89) 3
C Fair (70-79) 2
D Passing (60-69), except in developmental courses. 1

COM Completed. Given in non-credit and continuing education courses. 0

All grade points listed in the table above are per semester hour.
Note that some Health Sciences programs use a different grading scale.
C
Grade Point Average (GPA)
Grade points earned for each course are determined by multiplying the number of points for
each grade by the number of semester hours the course carries.
To compute a student’s grade point average (GPA), divide the total grade points by the total
R

number of semester hours attempted. The grades “IP”, “W”, “AUD”, “COM”, and “I” do not
affect the student’s GPA.

Incompletes
A

The grade of “I” (Incomplete) is conditional. A student receiving an “I” must arrange with the
instructor to complete the course work within six (6) months of the end of the incomplete term.
After the deadline, the “I” becomes an “F.” Upon completion of the course work, the grade will be
entered as an “I” grade on the student transcript. All “I”s must be changed to grades prior to
graduation.

31
Repetition of Courses
After the close of each semester, a check of a student’s enrollment history is conducted and courses
taken more than once are marked as a repeat. If a student repeats a course in which a grade (A-F)
has been received, the highest grade received is the permanent grade for the course and will be used
in computing the grade point average. All grades earned in a given course will be entered on the
transcript. Other colleges may compute the GPA differently than HCC.

No Late Registration

ED
It is the official policy of HCC that there is no late registration.
A student may register for a class as long as it has not already met for the first time. A student may
not register for a course if it has already met once. If it is believed that an extenuating circumstance
exists, the student should be referred to the Dean of Student Success or designee.
An example of an extenuating circumstance is a cancelled class. A cancelled class is beyond the
control of a student, and is an issue created by the college. In the event of a cancelled class, it may be
appropriate to make an exception to the late registration procedure.

Academic Progress Requirements

IV
A student’s academic progress will be evaluated for the first time after a minimum of nine (9)
attempted semester hours. A student’s academic standing is determined at the end of the Fall
semester (December), Spring semester (May) and Summer semester (August).
To maintain satisfactory academic progress, a student is expected to maintain a minimum cumulative
GPA of 2.0 based upon the aggregate number of hours attempted at Houston Community College.
H
Students who maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above are considered to be in good academic
standing.
Students who do not maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 will be placed on academic
probation, continued academic probation or academic suspension as defined below. These three
C
academic status levels alert students that action is required. Students are expected to establish
contact with their counselor and/or college advising center for support and assistance with
improving their academic standing.
Each academic status level is defined below with the required action by the student:

Additionally, students placed on academic probation or academic suspension should note the
following:
• Students on academic suspension are required to attend a Successful Learning Intervention
Program (SLIP) session at the college they attend prior to re-enrollment, and prior to

ED
meeting with their designated counselor.
• The student’s counselor will stipulate conditions of enrollment including, but not limited to,
maximum hours and/or specific courses.
• Students on Academic Suspension may be unable to enroll in classes for one (1) semester.
• A student may appeal an Academic Suspension may by completing the necessary paperwork
obtained at the college’s counseling center. For more information on appealing a
suspension, students may contact their college’s counseling center. See Counseling Contact
Information at www.hccs.edu/online/counseling-services.


IV
The following requirements also apply to the determination of academic progress:
Students enrolled in multiple summer sessions will have their entire summer’s work
evaluated for determination of their academic status.
Students in certain Health Sciences programs are required to maintain a grade of “C” in all
courses in order to continue in the program. Students not meeting these standards may
continue to enroll at HCC in other programs as long as they maintain minimum HCC
H
requirements. Health Sciences students should check their program’s requirements by
visiting www.hccs.edu/programs/areas-of-study/health-sciences.
• Students are responsible for knowing whether they have passed the minimum standards for
continuation in college. Ineligible students who register will be subject to dismissal with
C
forfeiture of all tuition and fees.
If a student has any questions, please contact a campus academic advisor and for information on
How to Meet with an Academic Advisor see www.hccs.edu/support-services/advising.

Change of Schedule: Drop/Add/Swap


R

Before Classes Begin


Students may add classes but only through the drop/add/swap period. Payment of course fee is
made at the time of the change. If a class is full, consider taking the course at a different time,
location, via Distance Education, or in the second start session.
A

After Classes Begin


Students can make a class change online through the drop/add/swap period listed in the
academic calendar found at www.hccs.edu/calendar.
Approval or requests for changes will be based on the availability of space in the class to which
the student wishes to transfer.

33
Deadline for changing schedule or adding courses is as follows:
• In-Person – Friday before the start of the session;
• Online – Night before the start of the session.

Dropping Courses
Students should make sure they are aware of penalties regarding financial aid, additional tuition
costs, etc. before withdrawing from course.

ED
It is the responsibility of the student to officially drop or withdraw from a course. Failure to officially
withdraw may result in the student receiving a grade of “F” in the course. A student may officially
withdraw in any of the following ways:
• Drop online from the student’s account. A student may login to his/her Student Account by
visiting myeagle.hccs.edu and selecting “Student Sign-In.”
• Send a letter requesting withdrawal to:
Registrar
Houston Community College


P. O. Box 667517
Houston, TX 77266-7517

IV
The withdrawal will be effective the date of postmark.
Fax a letter of withdrawal to 713-718-2111.
A student who officially withdraws from a course before the Official Date of Record will not receive a
grade and the course will not appear on the student’s permanent record. A student withdrawing
H
from a course after this period and prior to the deadline designated in the HCC calendar will receive a
grade of “W”.

Limitation/Costs of Course Withdrawals


Under Section 51.907 of the Texas Education Code, an institution of higher education may not permit
C
a student to drop more than six (6) courses, including any course a transfer student has dropped at
another institution of higher education. This statute was enacted by the State of Texas in the Spring
2007, and applies to students who enroll in a public institution of higher education as a first-time
freshman in the Fall 2007 or later. Any course that a student drops is counted toward the six-course
limit if (1) the student was able to drop the course without receiving a grade or incurring an academic
R

penalty; (2) the student’s transcript indicates or will indicate that the student was enrolled in the
course; and (3) the student is not dropping the course in order to withdraw from the institution. High
school students enrolled in HCC Dual Credit and Early College are waived from this requirement until
they graduate from high school. All college-level courses dropped after the Official Day of Record are
included in the six-course limit unless the student demonstrates to an appropriate college official
A

that one of the following events occurred to the student during the semester or summer session:
• A severe illness or other debilitating condition that affects the student’s ability to
satisfactorily complete the course (see Medical Withdrawal/Compassionate Withdrawal
Application Process below);
• The student’s responsibility for the care of a sick, injured, or needy person if the provision of
that care affects the student’s ability to satisfactorily complete the course.

34
• The death of a person who is considered to be a member of the student’s family or who is
otherwise considered to have a sufficiently close relationship to the student that the
person’s death is considered to be a showing of good cause.
• The active duty service as a member of the Texas National Guard or the armed forces of the
United States of either the student or a person who is considered to be a member of the
student’s family and such active duty interferes with the student’s ability to satisfactorily
complete the course.
• The change of the student’s work schedule that is beyond the control of the student and that

ED
affects the student’s ability to satisfactorily complete the course.
• Other personal or family reason that is considered catastrophic or beyond the control of the
student and interferes with the student’s ability to satisfactorily complete the course (as
determined by the college official; see also Medical Withdrawal/Compassionate Withdrawal
Application Process below).
For questions regarding the six-drop course limit, students should contact the Office of Enrollment
Services at their college.
HCC students affected by this statute that have attended or plan to attend another institution of
higher education should become familiar with that institution’s policies on dropping courses.


IV
Other laws affecting course drops are as follows:
Senate Bill 1782 - Effective June 1, 2018
Allows students who have accrued at least 50 semester credit hours and stopped-out for
24 months, a one-time exemption from the six-drop and three-peat rules. For more
information regarding these rules, see Course Withdrawals (6-drop rule) and Repeating
H
Course (Three-Peat rule) at
www.hccs.edu/about-hcc/procedures/student-rightspolicies--procedures.
• A Senate Bill 1782 qualifying student may drop one (1) additional course, for a total of
seven (7) drops. If a student once again drops out for a 24-month period, the student is
not granted an additional drop.
• Senate Bill 1782 qualifying students should contact the Enrollment Services Office at their
C
college to provide documentation and obtain a waiver form.

37
Graduation
Prior to graduation, students must submit all official transcripts of credits transferred from other
institutions to the Office of Admissions and Records. A candidate for any degree or certificate must
meet the graduation requirements in the catalog for the year of initial enrollment unless the student
elects to graduate under the requirements of a more recent catalog. The candidate must indicate the
catalog choice when applying for graduation. A student who does not maintain enrollment at HCC
and has a gap in enrollment for a period of more than one calendar year is required to graduate

ED
under the catalog requirements set by the student’s year of readmission. Current and archived
catalogs can be found at www.hccs.edu/programs/catalog.
To be considered as a candidate for the AA, AS, AAT, AAS degree or Certificate of Completion,
students must meet with their advisor and get approval and then complete the application online
through their student center. This should be done at the time of registration for the student’s final
semester, or during registration for the Spring semester if the student wants to participate in the
May ceremony.
Students who are unable to complete their degree plan on file at HCC may transfer back up to 45
semester hours of equivalent courses from an accredited institution. These courses must be

IV
completed within three years of their last semester of enrollment at HCC. All other graduation
requirements must be satisfied including the requirement that 25% of a student’s degree must be
completed at HCC.
Students who want a printed diploma must check the diploma box on the application and provide a
diploma mailing address. There is no charge for the diploma. Students may request their records be
reviewed at the conclusion of their course work so the appropriate degree or certificate will be
recorded on the student’s transcript. Students can meet with their advisor to review their records.
H
If a student did not elect to receive a copy of his/her diploma, a copy may be requested from the
Registrar. Students may email graduation@hccs.edu regarding their diploma or graduation status.

Graduation Honors
C
Graduation honors will be awarded to students pursuing an associate with superior cumulative GPAs.
The following classifications of honors will be recognized on the student’s transcript and diploma:
• Highest Honors - GPA 3.80 or above
• High Honors - GPA 3.60 to 3.79
• Honors - GPA 3.35 to 3.59
R

HCC will use the following guidelines to compute honors eligibility:


• The student must complete at least 25% of the degree at HCC; and
• The student must complete requirements for the AA, AS, AAT or AAS degree (certificate
A

graduates do not receive honors).


The grades in all HCC courses, including Developmental work, will figure in the cumulative GPA.
Developmental course grades are excluded from the degree GPA.
Courses taken through the preceding fall semester will be used in computing the GPA for the
purposes of determining graduation honors for the ceremony. The student must have completed
75% of the course work for the degree at that time.

38
Please see the Grading System section of this Catalog for more information on computing the
student’s GPA.

Participation in the Graduation Exercises


HCC holds two student graduation ceremonies each year, one in December for fall graduates, and
one in May for spring graduates. Candidates for degrees and certificates are encouraged to attend
the graduation ceremonies. Students who complete course requirements in summer 2020 may
participate in the Fall 2020 ceremony.

ED
Records and Transcripts
A transcript of college credits is an official copy of the student’s permanent record bearing the HCC
seal and the signature of the Registrar. Students may request an official transcript online, by phone,
or by ordering and picking up in-person at a specific campus locations (see website for more
information).
It is highly recommended that transcripts be sent electronically to colleges and universities to
expedite processing. There is a charge for transcript processing. All admissions information must be
on file and all holds cleared before a student’s record will be released. A student should allow a week

IV
for delivery following the transcript request. Additional time should be allowed at the close of a
semester. Students needing a transcript should allow one week after the end of a semester to
ensure all grades have been entered for the term.
Students should request transcripts of work completed at another institution from that institution.
For more information on ordering official transcripts from HCC, including fees and campus pick up
locations, please visit www.hccs.edu/resources-for/current-students/transcripts. Certain notations
H
required by law are included on the transcripts, such as student discipline information, in addition to
grades.

Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)


The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 was established to protect the privacy
C
rights of all students and applies to any educational facility receiving federal funds. FERPA prevents
the release of certain information held within student records. HCC complies with the FERPA when
collecting, maintaining, and releasing student records.

Release of Student Records/Information


R

FERPA affords students in “attendance” at Houston Community College (HCC) certain rights with
respect to their education records. “Attendance” is defined by HCC as beginning on the first day of
the term in which a student is enrolled. These student rights include:
• The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the
A

College receives a request for access. A student should submit to the registrar a written
request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect. The college official 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 college official to whom
the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to
whom the request should be addressed.

39
• The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student
believes are inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student’s privacy rights
under FERPA. A student who wishes to ask the College to amend a record should write the
College official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record the student
wants changed and specify why it should be changed. If the College decides not to amend
the record as requested, the College will notify the student in writing of the decision and the
student’s right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information
regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right

ED
to a hearing. See policy FJ(LOCAL) available at
www.hccs.edu/about-hcc/policies/hcc-board-policy-manual-section-f.
• The right to provide written consent before the College discloses personally identifiable
information from the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA
authorizes disclosure without consent. The College may disclose education records without a
student’s prior written consent under several FERPA exceptions including:
§ Disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests
§ A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory,
academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit

§
IV
personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the College has contracted
as its agent to provide a service instead of using College employees or officials (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 has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an
H
education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibilities for the College.
§ The student’s application for financial aid
§ Submitting proof of dependency
§ Response to a judicial order or subpoena
C
§ A bona fide health or safety emergency
§ Information requested by other schools in which the student seeks or intends to enroll
§ Directory information (described below)
R

As of January 2012, the U.S. Department of Education’s FERPA regulations expanded the
circumstances under which a student’s education records and personally identifiable information
(PII) contained in such records—including a student’s SSN, grades, or other private information—
may be accessed without a student’s consent.
• First, the U.S. Comptroller General, the U.S. Attorney General, the U.S. Secretary of
A

Education, or state and local education authorities (“Federal and State Authorities”) may
allow access to a student’s records and PII without a student’s consent to any third party
designated by a Federal or State Authority to evaluate a federal or state-supported education
program. The evaluation may relate to any program that is “principally engaged in the
provision of education,” such as early childhood education and job training, as well as any
program that is administered by an education agency or institution.

40
• Second, Federal and State Authorities may allow access to a student’s education records and
PII without a student’s consent to researchers performing certain types of studies, in certain
cases even when HCC objects or does not request such research. Federal and State
Authorities must obtain certain use-restriction and data security promises from the entities
that they authorize to receive a student’s PII, but the Authorities need not maintain direct
control over such entities.
• In addition, in connection with Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems, State Authorities may

ED
collect, compile, permanently retain, and share without a student’s consent PII from a
student’s education records, and they may track a student’s participation in education and
other programs by linking such PII to other personal information about a student that they
obtain from other Federal or State data sources, including workforce development,
unemployment insurance, child welfare, juvenile justice, military service, and migrant student
records systems.
FERPA also designates certain information related to a student as “Directory Information.” FERPA
gives the College the right to disclose such information to anyone inquiring without having to ask a
student for permission, unless the student specifically requests in writing that all such information
not be made public without written consent (see location of HCC Confidentiality Form below) except




Address and telephone number;
Date of birth;
Major field of study;
IV
by the National Student Clearinghouse to loan guarantors.
Houston Community College has designated the following as “Student Directory Information:”
• Student’s name;
H
• Enrollment status (full/part-time);
• Classification;
• Dates of attendance at HCC;
• Number of semester hours completed and in progress;
• Student classification;
C
• Degrees earned and dates awarded; and
• Most recent previous educational institution attended.
If a student does not want directory information released, the student must complete a
confidentiality request form at the college campus and submit to the Enrollment Services Office.
R

The Confidentiality Form is located at


www.hccs.edu/media/houston-community-college/district/pdf/confidentiality-form.pdf.
Release of any additional information pertaining to student records must be authorized by the
student (i.e., grades, transcripts). If a student wishes to authorize HCC to release information to
another person, he/she must complete an Authorization to Release Information form and submit
A

with proper identification to the Enrollment Services Office at the college. The form will specify
duration and information allowed to be released.
The Authorization to Release information form is located at
www.hccs.edu/media/houston-community-college/district/pdf/ferpa/FERPA-Release-Form.pdf.
If a student is not able to sign the Authorization to Release Information form in person at the
Campus Registration Office, he/she must complete the FERPA Notary Form. The FERPA Notary Form

41
must be notarized and is located at

ACADEMIC SUPPORT
Freshman Success Courses (FSC)
All students who attend Houston Community College for the first time and have twelve (12) college
level semester credit hours (SCH) or fewer must enroll in a Freshman Success Course (FSC) their first
semester. Houston Community College offers two forms of this course. The Introduction to Health
Professions (HPRS 1201) course is designed for students pursuing a degree in Health Sciences and the

ED
Learning Frameworks (EDUC 1300) course is designed for students pursuing all other majors. This
course is designed to provide career assessment as well as career exploration opportunities that will
assist students in deciding on a career path.
For more information, consult the Class Schedule at

Service Learning
The Service Learning program at HCC provides civic engagement opportunities for students enrolled
in courses with a community service component. However, these opportunities are also available to

IV
any student desiring to volunteer their time to assist in community outreach efforts. The program
advocates a balanced service-learning approach, meeting the needs of the community while
maintaining an academically rigorous campus environment.
A course designated as having a service learning component is one that provides students with an
opportunity to apply what is learned in the classroom to a practical experience in the community.
Often partnering with non-profit organizations and community service sections of corporations,
service learning enriches the educational experience for students by unveiling the relevancy of
H
coursework to real life scenarios in the community. Service learning improves retention rates of
students, increases their sense of civic responsibility and deepens their understanding of community
issues. Service learning also allows students to explore roles and activities that will help them
develop valuable knowledge and skills and explore possible career options. For additional
information regarding Service Learning opportunities, contact Dr. Pauline Warren at
C
pauline.warren@hccs.edu or visit
www.hccs.edu/departments/division-of-instructional-services/service-learning.

Supplemental Instruction
Supplemental Instruction is an academic enrichment and support program that uses peer-assisted
R

study sessions to improve student retention and success in historically difficult courses. Peer
Support is provided by students who have already succeeded in completion of the specified course.
For additional information regarding Supplemental Instruction opportunities, please contact Dr.

Tutoring, Writing Centers, and Math Labs


One important key to success in college is learning to use available resources. Houston Community
College provides many tutoring opportunities for students in almost all areas. Whether a student
prefers face-to-face interaction or the privacy and convenience of working with a tutor online, HCC
provides the options. In addition, HCC provides access to writing centers and math labs, staffed with

43
experts ready to assist students with writing assignments and math problems. More information is

ADULT EDUCATION PROGRAM
Additionally, HCC offers Adult Education programs described below and at
hccs.edu/programs/adult-education.

Adult Education & Literacy Programs


Adult Education courses are grant supported through the support of the Texas Workforce
Commission. Adult Education students can choose from the following three areas below:

ED
• HSE (High School Equivalency Student)
Students seeking a certificate of High School Equivalency (GED, Hi-SET, TASC).
A student who wants to prepare to take one of the three Texas-approved high school
equivalency exams. These exams include the GED (General Educational Development), the
TASC (Test Assessing Secondary Completion) or the Hi-SET (High School Equivalency Test).
Upon successful completion of all parts of one of these three accepted exams, the student
will receive the certificate of high school equivalency issued by Texas Education Agency.
• ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages)
Students wanting to speak, read, and write English and whose first language is not English.

• Career4U Academy
IV
A learner who wants to achieve competence in comprehending, speaking, reading, and
writing English. ESOL students can continue to study for their High School Equivalency and/or
transition to postsecondary education and training or employment.

The Adult Education & Literacy program offers five Career4U Academies. These academies
allow students to attend college without a TSI test and earn a certificate in the sectors of
H
Healthcare, Information Technology, Business, Construction Trades, and Transportation. This
student will establish a clear path toward his/her educational and employment goals by
studying basic skills, English as a Second Language, and/or high school equivalency along
with a post-secondary Workforce Certificate. Pay a $20 processing fee and Adult Education
will sponsor the first two classes, and financial aid pays for the completion of the program.

45
Ability to Benefit Programs
The Adult Education & Literacy office has arrangements that will allow students who do not have a
high school diploma or Certificate of High School Equivalency (TxCHSE) certificate to enroll at HCC
and receive federal student aid including Pell Grants. Students need to demonstrate that they have
the “ability to benefit” from postsecondary education and training and can meet certain additional
requirements. More information is available at
www.hccs.edu/programs/adult-education/ability-to-benefit-pell-grant-option.

ED
Adult High School
Adult High School (AHS) is a credit recovery program for students seeking credit recovery and/or
original credit toward their high school graduation requirements (students recovering/completing
credit receive a high school diploma). Current high school students will need a referral from their
high school counselor before registering for any AHS class. For more information, including AHS

Student Identification Card


Student identification (ID) cards are required once a student has registered and paid for classes. The

IV
card will be needed for library and computer lab usage, admission to college activities, and voting in
campus elections. ID cards are non-transferable and are to be held only by the students to whom
they were issued. Students may obtain their HCC ID card by visiting the West Loop Campus on
Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Student IDs may also be obtained at
any of the other campuses operating a photo ID station. Check with the Campus Manager for the
location and hours of campus photo ID stations. Students are required to be in possession of their ID
card at all times. All ID cards are the property of HCC and must be shown when requested by a
H
representative of HCC. If students lose their ID cards, they should report it to the HCC Police
Department by calling 713-718-8888 as soon as it is discovered as missing. To obtain a replacement ID
card, students must initiate the process at the college campus they attend. A nominal fee will be
charged for the replacement of lost ID cards. For information on how and where to get your student
ID, visit www.hccs.edu/support-services/get-your-student-id.
C
Advising Services
Advisors provide one-on-one advising support for students, assist with pathway planning, and
provide information about institutional and external resources available to students.
HCC requires all new HCC students to enroll in a Student Success Course in their first semester to
R

help them determine their major, program, or area of study, and plan their degree path. Once a
student has selected his/her “major,” instructors who teach the courses in that field (e.g.,
accounting, computer science, history) will be his/her best academic advisors. If a student plans to
transfer to complete a baccalaureate degree, it is important to determine a major and the transfer
institution as soon as possible, because different colleges and universities may have different
A

requirements. New students are assigned an advisor.


Please visit www.hccs.edu/support-services/advising for more information regarding advising
services and contacting an advisor.

Services for Students with a Qualified Disability


Houston Community College (HCC) views equal access as a shared responsibility between HCC
H
and the student. HCC recognizes students with disabilities as a valued element of diversity and
ensures that no academically qualified student with a disability will be denied access to or
participation in the services, programs, and activities of HCC. HCC makes its campuses and
programs accessible to individuals with disabilities.

ADA Accommodation Process for HCC Students


C
The Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended, prohibits discrimination against individuals with
disabilities and requires postsecondary institutions to provide accommodations when a student
discloses a disability. In college, students with disabilities are covered under Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act, which also prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities, and
R

under the Americans with Disabilities Act. HCC’s obligations under these laws are different than
what students will have experienced during high school. HCC’s objective of reasonable
accommodations in college is to accommodate the functional limitations of the student while
maintaining the integrity of college courses and programs. Colleges provide reasonable
accommodations, and not modifications, to courses in accordance with federal law.
A

Student’s Responsibility
Obtaining reasonable accommodations is a process that is voluntary on behalf of the student and
interactive. It is the student’s responsibility to self-identify, disclose his/her disability or condition
to the Ability Services Office, provide the appropriate documentation from a qualified
professional, usually a physician or clinician, with a diagnosis of his/her disability (s), and request
reasonable accommodations. The Ability Services Office, in communication with the student, will
issue a letter detailing the student’s approved reasonable accommodations. Once the ADA

49
accommodation letter is received by the student, the student should contact his/her instructors
at the start of the semester and present the letter to them. Accommodation letters are not
retroactively applied. It is the student’s responsibility to communicate his/her questions or
concerns associated with his/her accommodation letter to the Ability Services office in a timely
manner. Due to high demands for services, HCC strongly encourages students to request
accommodations before the start of each academic term. Failure to provide sufficient
documentation or timely request accommodations may delay the delivery of accommodations.
Returning students should contact the Ability Services office at the beginning of each semester

ED
to receive their reasonable accommodation letters. Additional documentation may be requested
if students request to change their existing accommodations.

Examples of Reasonable Accommodations


Examples of accommodations students have received include, but are not limited to, extra time
for testing, use of a tape recorder in classroom, Sign Language interpretation or CART services,
preferential seating in the classroom, and alternate textbooks.

ADA Counselors
The point of contact for the HCC students with a qualified disability seeking accommodations

IV
under the ADA is the Ability Services Office. The Ability Services Offices are located at each of our
6 colleges. For the list of ADA counselors and their contact information visit
www.hccs.edu/support-services/ability-services.
Students, who are only enrolled in online classes, can contact any of the ADA counselors to
request ADA accommodations.

Grievance and Appeal Process


H
Reports of discrimination based on disability may be directed to the ADA/Section 504
coordinator. HCC designates the following person to coordinate its efforts to comply with Title II
of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, which incorporates and expands the
requirements of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended:
C
David Cross, Director EEO/Compliance, Title IX Coordinator/Section 504 Coordinator
Office of Institutional Equity
3100 Main, Suite 702
Houston, TX 77002
713-718-8271 or institutional.equity@hccs.edu
R

More information is also available at the Office of Institutional Equity (OIE) website:
www.hccs.edu/departments/institutional-equity
A student who is dissatisfied with the outcome of the investigation may appeal through the
applicable grievance policy beginning at the appropriate level.
A

A student also has the right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education, Office for
Civil Rights.

50
Testing
The Testing Center is responsible for the administration of various assessment tests and providing
accommodations to those who qualify. Assessment tests are given to incoming and current students
for the purpose of determining course placement. Testing schedules will vary, and not all tests are
available at each college. For a list of testing center locations and hours of operation visit
www.hccs.edu/resources-for/current-students/testing-services.
Special accommodations at testing centers are available for those who qualify. HCC students with a

ED
qualified disability seeking accommodations under the ADA should contact one of the Ability
Services Offices located at each of our six (6) colleges. These counselors can give students
information about testing accommodations. For the list of counselors and their contact information
visit hccs.edu/support-services/disability-services.

updated frequently and provides easy access for navigating library resources. Eagle Library Search
provides access to the HCC online catalog and over 100 of the HCC licensed databases in a single
search.

How Do I Log into Databases and My Library Account?

IV
HCC licensed databases can be accessed anywhere using a student’s HCC ID (“W” number) and the
same password used to access a student’s HCC email, student account, and computers. Library
accounts are used to request items from any HCC library and renew items. To login to a student’s
library account, a student should use their first name and last name, leaving a space between. A
student’s password will be your library barcode # from your student ID card. For more information,
go to library.hccs.edu/howdoi.
H
More Than Books and Databases
HCC Libraries provides access to computers, printing, photocopying, scanning, DVDs, streaming
video, Chromebooks, study rooms, 3D printing, and one-button studio access in certain locations.
Assistive technology includes laptops with ADA software installed, TOPAZ video magnifiers, purple
C
phones and more. More information regarding these resources is available at
library.hccs.edu/accessibility.

How Do I Check Out What I Need?


A student ID card is a library card. Library material can be checked out for 3 weeks and renewed
R

twice. Students can renew twice by telephone or the library website.

Overdue Library Materials


The card inside books shows when materials are to be returned. If a student fails to return materials,
a “hold” status is reported and reflected on their student record(s). A hold will affect a student’s
A

ability to register for additional courses or obtain a transcript. Students will be blocked from further
borrowing until the materials due are returned to the library. Lost, damaged and stolen items are the
responsibility of the borrower.

53
What About Other Libraries?
In the event the HCC Libraries do not own a particular item student need for their research, students,
faculty, and staff have full privileges to the TexShare Card Program and to the interlibrary loan
program which expands access to the collections of all participating libraries. Students will be
subject to the loan rules of each individual institution—both as to the number of items they may
check out and how long they may keep them out. Students will be responsible for any overdue fines
or lost book fees that particular library may charge.

ED
BOOKSTORE
Students may purchase textbooks, study aids, and a wide range of novelty items and apparel at the
college bookstore. Students are encouraged to purchase books prior to the first day of class and can
locate their course materials online at www.hccs.bncollege.com. Students should bring a copy of
their class schedule to ensure that they are purchasing the correct texts. The bookstore will issue full
refunds for textbooks during the first week of each term, provided the textbook is in original
condition as when purchased and the original receipt is presented with request. For more

F-1 International Students
Houston Community College (HCC) considers students holding a nonimmigrant visa to be an
international student. Prospective students maintaining any other type of visa status, except F-2 and
B (visiting) visas, may enroll at HCC as permitted by U.S. federal law. The student should call their
HCC college of choice for admission instructions and meet the published application deadline.
International students who want to study in the U.S. with an F-1 status must obtain a Student and
Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) Certificate of Eligibility, also referred to as a SEVIS Form
I-20, from HCC. HCC has been approved by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to issue

IV
SEVIS Form I-20s required to obtain F-1 student status. The individual must then use the SEVIS Form I-
20 to apply for an F-1 student visa (if outside the U.S.) or a change of non-immigrant classification to
F-1 (if inside the U.S.). U.S. federal regulations require all applicants to provide certain documentation
and information to the college issuing the SEVIS Form I-20 before it can be issued to a student. To
apply for a SEVIS Form I-20, please refer to the “International Students” section of the HCC website
(see link below) and follow the outlined application guidelines.
An international student under the age of 18 who wishes to gain admission to HCC must provide

Full-Time Enrollment Requirements for International Students


In order to maintain their visa status, effective Fall 2017, F-1 international students must earn letter
grades (A, B, C, D or F). A grade of a “W” (withdrawn) or “FX” (failing due to non-attendance) will
not count towards the full-time enrollment requirement. “W” or “FX” is not considered a valid letter
grade and demonstrates the student is not maintaining F-1 immigration status.

59
F-1 students must maintain at least 12 credit hours during the fall and spring semesters (9 credit
hours during the summer, provided this is their first semester of attendance at HCC). International
students holding an F-1 visa are limited to no more than the equivalent of one class or 3 credit hours
of distance education (online class) per semester that will count towards the full-time status.

Concurrent Enrollment for F-1 International Students


An F-1 student maintaining his/her F-1 status at another educational institution and wishing to be
concurrently enrolled at HCC must obtain a letter from the ISA/DSO at his/her parent institution

ED
confirming permission to take classes at HCC under the F-1 status. F-1 students maintaining status at
other educational institutions are not eligible to work on the HCC campus until the student has
received a SEVIS Form I-20 from HCC and approval to work on campus from an HCC ISA/DSO.
For more information, see www.hccs.edu/support-services/international-students/.

Summer International Transient Students


Students who are attending another college or university and wish to take summer classes at HCC
must provide a letter from the ISA/DSO at their parent institution that indicates they are maintaining
their F-1 status and have been given permission to enroll at HCC.

English Proficiency and Course Placement


IV
International students planning to enroll in academic programs must demonstrate English language
proficiency. This can be accomplished by taking one of the following exams: TOEFL, IELTS, PTE
Academic, ACCUPLACER (ESL), or an approved Texas Success Initiative (TSI) test. Students who have
not taken an English language proficiency test will be administered the ACCUPLACER (ESL) test by
H
HCC to determine the student’s English language proficiency. Scores on the exams must meet state
and institutional requirements for placement into college-level classes. Students who do not meet
these requirements will be required to enroll in the Intensive English program. For more information,
please visit www.hccs.edu/support-services/international-students/foreign-credentials.

International Transfer Students


C
A transfer student is any student who has previous college work and plans to pursue a certificate or
degree at HCC. HCC admits transfer students who already have established F-1 status while attending
other colleges and universities.
A transfer student may be admitted to either an academic program or the Intensive English program.
R

Students planning to transfer to HCC must submit a complete application to the Office of
International Services and Programs. For more information, please refer to the International

HCC GUARANTEE OF EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE

ED
Houston Community College is committed to excellence in education. As an expression of this
commitment, HCC guarantees its graduates both transfer credit and entry-level job skills. Such
guarantee is a statement of confidence in the administration, faculty, and staff as well as a
commitment to our educational mission to empower students so they may achieve their highest
potential.
This guarantee is expressly subject to and limited to special conditions identified in the following
sections on job competency and transfer credit. The HCC obligation under this guarantee is limited to
providing additional courses under the conditions prescribed in these sections.

Transfer Credit

IV
HCC guarantees to those students earning the Associate of Arts, Associate of Arts in Teaching and
the Associate of Science degrees that their required courses will transfer to all public-supported
Texas colleges and universities. If these courses are rejected by the qualifying senior institution of
the student’s choice, HCC will offer the student an alternate tuition-free course that will transfer.
Transferability means the acceptance of HCC credit toward a specific major and degree at a specific
H
institution, as defined by the student’s transfer/degree plan. However, no institution of higher
education shall be required to accept in transfer, or apply toward a degree program, more than sixty-
six (66) semester credit hours of lower-division academic credit. Institutions of higher education may
choose to accept additional credit hours by agreement. The transfer guarantee of academic courses
is subject to the following conditions:
C
• The student must file a written transfer/degree plan by the time he/she has completed 12
semester hours or the equivalent at HCC. The transfer/degree plan must include the
following: (a) the specific institution to which the student plans to transfer, (b) the
bachelor’s degree and major the student plans to pursue, and (c) the date such decision was
made.
R

• Courses must be identified by the receiving institutions as transferable and applicable toward
a specific major. The receiving institution determines the following:
§ Total number of credits accepted for transfer;
§ Grades required;
A

§ Relevant grade point average; and


§ Duration of transferability.
• Required courses must have been taken at HCC no earlier than three years before the
attempt to transfer.

62
If the above terms and conditions have been met and courses are not accepted by a receiving
institution in transfer, the following terms and conditions are applicable:
• The student must submit to HCC a Notice of Transfer Credit Denial from the receiving
institution (within 10 days of denial) so the resolution process may begin.
• If transfer credit denial is not resolved, tuition-free transfer courses (semester hour for
semester hour) must be taken within a one calendar year period.
• Although courses are tuition-free, students will be responsible for any fees or course-related

ED
expenses, other than the course-required books which HCC is responsible for providing at no
cost to the student. The fees students are responsible for include General Fees, Technology
Fees, Student Activity/Services Fees, Recreation Fees, and Out-of-District fees.

Job Competency
HCC guarantees that graduates earning workforce certificates or degrees will possess the job skills
required for entry-level employment in the occupational field for which they have been trained. (This
guarantee does not imply the graduate will pass any licensing or qualifying examination for a
particular career.)

IV
Any HCC workforce program certificate or degree graduate whom the employer determines
is lacking in the technical or general educational skills necessary for entry to the position shall be
provided up to nine tuition-free credit hours. A program of instruction must be designed to meet
specific occupational competencies identified in technical courses which are competency-based and
emphasize the acquisition of the skills necessary for immediate employment and/or career
advancement. Program competencies are identified in the course syllabus provided to each student.
H
• This guarantee applies only to certificates and degrees of at least 30 semester hours or 360
contact hours.
• All course work in question must have been taken at HCC and taught by HCC instructors.
• The graduate must have earned the AAS or certificate in a workforce program listed in the
HCC catalog no earlier than one year prior to the beginning date of the employment in
C
question.
• The graduate must have completed the degree within a five-year period beginning at the
point of first enrollment.
• The graduate must be employed full-time within 12 months of graduation and in a position
directly related to the specific program completed at HCC.

R

Within 90 days of the graduate’s initial date of employment, the employer must certify in
writing that the graduate lacks entry-level skills identified by HCC as program-exit
competencies. The employer must specify the areas of deficiency.
• The employer, graduate, and HCC personnel will develop a written retraining plan. The
retraining will be limited to nine credit hours or 360 contact hours related to the identified
skill deficiency.
A

• The retraining must be completed within one calendar year from the time the plan is agreed
upon.
• Although retraining is tuition-free, the graduate (or employer) is responsible for the cost of
insurance, uniforms, fees, and any other course-related expenses. HCC is responsible for the
cost of books required for the course work.

63
TRANSFER INFORMATION AND CREDIT
Transfer Policy
HCC analyzes credit accepted for transfer in terms of level, content, quality, comparability, and
degree program relevance. Transfer of credit from one institution to another involves at least three
considerations:
• the educational quality of the learning experience which the student transfers;

ED
• the comparability of the nature, content, and level of the learning experience to that offered
by the receiving institution; and
• the appropriateness and applicability of the learning experience to the programs offered by
the receiving institution, in light of the student’s educational goals.

Accreditations Accepted in Transfer


HCC accepts college level credit in transfer from colleges and universities accredited by any of the six
regional accreditation bodies: Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, New England

IV
Association of Colleges and Schools, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, Northwest
Commission on Colleges and Universities, Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, and the
Western Association of Colleges and Schools.
In addition, HCC accepts college level credit in transfer from colleges and universities by any of the
following national accreditation bodies: Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture & Oriental
Medicine, Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools, Accrediting Commission for Career
Schools and Colleges, Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training, Accrediting Council
H
for Independent Colleges and Schools (prior to 12/31/2016), American Board of Funeral Service

Biblical Higher Education, Commission of Accrediting of the Association of Theological Schools,
Council on Occupational Education, Distance Education Accrediting Commission, National
Association of Schools of Theatre, and Transnational Association of Christian College and Schools.
C
Students Transferring to HCC from Other Colleges/Universities
Transfer students are students who have previous college work and plan to pursue a certificate or
degree at HCC. HCC evaluates, accepts, and awards credit for transfer course work, experiential
learning, advanced placement, and professional certificates that is consistent with the HCC mission
R

and for which HCC can ensure that the course work and learning outcomes are at the collegiate level
and comparable to HCC certificate and degree programs. Transfer students are required to send
official transcripts from each previously attended college or university. Transfer work is evaluated
within the first semester of attendance. If students submit their prior college work after the start of
their first semester, their credit will not be posted until the official transcript arrives.
A

Prior Learning Assessment Credit


Prior Learning Assessment (PLA) is a process for assessing learning gained outside a traditional
academic environment. This could be learning acquired through military service, employer training
programs, independent study, non-credit courses, open courseware, or volunteer or community
service. Prior Learning Assessment (PLA) is a means of evaluating what a student already knows at
the college-level derived from these experiences for college credit, certification, or advanced

64
standing toward further education or training. See PLA website for more information
www.hccs.edu/resources-for/current-students/prior-learning-assessment.
To be eligible to earn PLA credit, a student must be currently or previously enrolled at HCC and meet
all Houston Community College admissions requirements. They should not have previously taken or
attempted the course (by title that is the same as the PLA credit for which they are applying). PLA
credit is only awarded when it applies to the HCC programs of study.
To commence the PLA process, students must first speak with their Pathway and Case Management

ED
Advisor. If it is determined that they are eligible for PLA, the student will begin the PLA process.
NOTE: A minimum of 25% of the credits for the HCC certificate or degree must be completed at HCC (in
fulfillment of the residency requirement). Please note that credit earned by Advanced Placement (AP)
exams do not count toward the six-hour requirement.

Credit by Examination
HCC awards credit for qualified scores on nationally standardized examinations for the following
instruments: College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Examinations, the College Level Examination
Program (CLEP), International Baccalaureate (IB) exams, and the Defense Activity for Non-

IV
Traditional Education Support (DANTES) subject exams, Sophia Learning exams (with ACE
evaluation), Learning Counts exams (with ACE evaluation), Assessment and Learning in Knowledge
Spaces (ALEKS with ACE evaluation) and Straighter Line (with ACE evaluation). Credit earned
through these examinations will be recorded by the Registrar only after the student has completed
six semester hours at HCC. Official test scores must be sent from the testing agency to the HCC
Office of Admissions and Records. Contact the Testing Office for examination schedules and
availability of the CLEP. Questions regarding credit received for the above national exams should be
H
directed to the Advising Office.
More information on is available at www.hccs.edu/support-services/transfers/transferring-credits.

Students Transferring from HCC to Other Colleges/Universities


C
HCC recommends the following steps to students considering transferring to other
colleges/universities:
• Meet with a HCC advisor at a student’s community college campus to discuss his/her
academic goals, plans, and questions. For instance, the student should consider completing
an associate degree before transferring. Some universities give preferential treatment in
R

admission decisions, if a student transfers after completing his/her associate degree.


Research indicates that students who have completed the associate degree perform better
after transfer than those who did not complete the associate degree.
• If a student needs to transfer to another institution before the completion of his/her HCC
A

associate degree, the student may be able to “transfer back” to HCC his/her college credits
from another institution in order to fulfill his/her associate degree requirements. In most
cases, a student can “transfer back” up to 42 college-level semester hours of credit within
three years of leaving HCC to complete his/her associate degree requirements. (Note: all
graduation requirements must be fulfilled. See HCC catalog at
www.hccs.edu/programs/catalog/academic-information for more information.)

65
• HCC also recommends that a student obtain a transfer plan from his/her HCC advisor. A
transfer plan lists the university-required courses which can be taken at HCC toward a
student’s university bachelor’s degree’s major. If a student is undecided about his/her choice
of university or his/her choice of major, see a HCC career counselor for more help. To locate a
counselor, go to www.hccs.edu/support-services/counseling/counselors-hcc.
For more information, see the “If You are Transferring from HCC” section of
www.hccs.edu/support-services/transfers.

ED
Transfer Dispute Resolution
If a student is informed by a Texas public college or university that it will not accept the transfer of
any HCC academic course credit, the student may have a case for a transfer dispute which will
ultimately be resolved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB). Students should
be cautioned that workforce course credits may or may not be transferable, depending upon the
program and articulation agreements between HCC and the college or university involved.
Institutions of higher education, however, may choose to accept additional credit hours by
agreement. If the student wishes to transfer credit later to work on a bachelor’s degree, the student
should consult with an HCC program or advisor. Rules and procedures for the resolution of transfer

IV
disputes regarding lower-division courses have been formulated by the THECB as follows:
If an institution of higher education refuses to accept course credit earned by a student at another
institution of higher education, the receiving institution shall provide written notice to the student
and to the sending institution that transfer of course credit has been denied, along with the reasons
for denial. Students may dispute the denial of transfer credit by contacting a designated official at
either the sending or receiving institution.
H
The two institutions and the student shall attempt to resolve the dispute in accordance with THECB
rules and guidelines.
If the transfer dispute is not resolved to the satisfaction of the student or the sending institution
within 45 days of the date the student received written notice of denial, the institution denying the
C
course credit transfer shall notify the Commissioner of Higher Education of the unresolved dispute
and the reasons for the continued denial of course credit transfer.
The Commissioner or a designee shall make the final determination in an unresolved dispute
concerning the transfer of course credit and provide written notice of the determination to the
involved student and institutions.
R

Transfer Limitation
Students who intend to transfer to baccalaureate degree programs should be aware of possible
limitations on lower division course work. Most universities will generally not accept in transfer more
than sixty-six (66) semester credit hours of lower division academic credit; however, institutions may
A

choose to accept additional hours by agreement.

STUDENT RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Freedom of Inquiry and Expression
Educational institutions exist for the transmission of knowledge, the pursuit of truth, the
development of students, and the general well-being of society. Free inquiry and free expression are
indispensable to the attainment of these goals. Students and student organizations will be free to
examine and discuss all questions of interest to them and to express opinions publicly and privately.

ED
They will be free to support causes by orderly means which do not disrupt the regular and normal
operation of the institution and which comply with the regulations that relate to student activities
and conduct. At the same time, it should be made clear to the educational and the larger community
that in their public expressions or demonstrations, students or student organizations speak only for
themselves. Recognized student organizations will be allowed to invite and to hear any person of
their choosing when the purpose of such an invitation is consistent with the aims of the College’s
policies. By law, the College does not advocate on behalf or particular political agendas or
candidates. Hate messaging will not be tolerated and will result in disciplinary action.

Student Concerns

IV
Houston Community College is committed to providing an educational climate that is conducive to
the personal and professional development of each individual. In order to ensure that commitment,
the College has developed procedures for students to address their concerns within the college
community. A student who has an unresolved disagreement with a faculty or staff member, another
student, or a student group, or is dissatisfied with the service they received, may initiate an attempt
to address a concern without prejudicing his or her status with the College. It is the goal of HCC to
assist all students in efficiently resolving their concerns.

applicable HCC policies. All Board Policies may be found at hccs.edu/about-hcc/policies.
Students in the College are protected as any citizen and have rights as stated in the law and HCC
policy. Students must, however, assume the responsibilities of being a helpful and productive
member of the college community. They are expected to obey applicable law, HCC Board Policies,
Regulations, procedures, handbooks, directives, and administrative rules.

ED
This Student Code of Conduct contains regulations for dealing with alleged student violations of
College standards of conduct in a manner consistent with HCC policy and legal requirements.
The Student Handbook and Code of Conduct is meant to give guidance and background to all
students enrolled at HCC, as well as prospective students and alumni.
The HCC Community, including students, is also subject to HCC’s Board Policies, which can be found
online at www.hccs.edu/about-hcc/policies.
Some students in specialized programs or courses of study may also be subject to handbooks or
rules pertaining to their particular program or course of study, in addition to a particular course

IV
syllabus. That information is provided to the student by their program, course of study, or faculty
member.

Responsibility and Standard of Conduct at HCC


Board Policies: FLB(LOCAL); FM(LEGAL)

concerning student conduct. All students shall obey the law, show respect for properly constituted
authority, and observe correct standards of conduct. Each student shall be expected to:

Basic Standards of Conduct within the Classroom


An instructor or program may establish additional and reasonable behavior guidelines for class. Any
student failing to abide by appropriate standards of conduct during scheduled College activities may
be required by the instructor or another College Official to leave that day’s class or activity or accept
other clearly communicated and appropriate consequence(s).

75
The student has the right to return to the next class/activity, provided the student has met with the
appropriate Department Chair and/or Dean of Student Success or designee, as applicable, or unless
otherwise instructed.
If a student refuses a request to voluntarily leave the classroom or activity, security/HCCPD may be
summoned to remove the student so that the scheduled activity can resume without further
disruption. In cases of serious problems, the faculty or staff member will document and report the
incident. Disciplinary action may be pursued to include a referral to the Dean of Student Success.
Other options may be utilized in a manner consistent with the Student Handbook and Code of

ED
Conduct. The above policy does not diminish the student’s freedom to take reasonable exception to
the data or views offered in any course of study and to reserve judgment about matters of opinion,
in a way that includes appropriate classroom behavior. Students are responsible for learning the
content of any course of study in which they are enrolled.

Basic Standard of Conduct Free Inquiry and Expression


Free inquiry and free expression, both by the instructor and the student, and subject to applicable
law and HCC policy, are indispensable to the pursuit of truth and the development of students.
Students must exercise their liberty with responsibility. A student is not entitled to greater

Board Policies: FLB(LOCAL); FM(LEGAL) IV


immunities or privileges under this policy than those enjoyed by other citizens generally.

Student Code of Conduct Authority and Jurisdiction

The College’s Student Code of Conduct shall be used to address student or Student Organization
conduct alleged to violate HCC Board of Trustees policy or any local, state or federal law.

defined in the Handbook, Code of Conduct, and those described in other HCC Policies, Regulations,
handbooks and rules:

• While elsewhere if the behavior adversely impacts the educational environment or otherwise
interferes with the College’s operations or objectives.
Each student/organization shall be responsible for their conduct from the time of application for
R

admission through the actual awarding of a degree (which may apply even if their conduct is not
discovered until after a degree is awarded).
The Student Code of Conduct shall apply to a student/organization’s conduct even though conduct
may occur before classes begin or after classes end as well as during the academic year and during
periods between terms of actual enrollment. This document governs the behavior of all
A

students/organizations on and off College premises.


Students/organizations attending functions on or off campus as representatives of the College are
subject to disciplinary sanctions for violations of the Student Code of Conduct. The Student Code of

disciplinary matter is pending.

76
The Dean of Student Success/Designee shall decide whether the Student Code of Conduct shall be
applied to conduct occurring off campus, on a case-by-case basis, in their sole discretion. Should
actions violate both College regulations and public law, this may result in the application of College
disciplinary proceedings in addition to any legal proceedings.
For the purposes of this Student Code of Conduct, the determinant factor for misconduct or policy
violations will be Responsible or Not Responsible with regard to the “preponderance of evidence
standard.

Discipline Hearing Rules of Evidence


Legal rules of evidence do not apply to hearings before the Student Conduct Discipline Committee.
All documentation and other evidence will be offered to the Committee during the hearing and made
a part of the hearing record. Documentary evidence can be admitted in the form of copies or
A

extracts, in addition to incorporation by reference.


However, the Committee may exclude irrelevant, immaterial and unduly repetitious evidence.
The Committee will recognize as privileged, to the extent permitted by law, communications
between a student and a member of the professional staff of the counseling center where such
communications were made in the course of performance of official duties and when the matters

97
discussed were understood by the staff member and the student to be confidential. The Committee
members can freely question witnesses.
The Committee will presume a student is innocent of the alleged violation until it is convinced by a
preponderance of the evidence that the student violated a rule or policy.

Disciplinary Records
Board Policy: FLB(LOCAL)

ED
A student/organization’s disciplinary record will include the following and will be maintained
according to the applicable College document retention schedule:
• A copy of the notice required; and/or
• All documentary and other evidence offered or admitted as evidence in any disciplinary
proceeding; and/or
• The disposition outcomes to include the Student Conduct Discipline Committee’s decision,
and any records pertaining to appeals or appellate decisions.
All disciplinary records and proceedings will be kept separate from the student’s academic record

IV
and will be treated as confidential to the extent provided by law. Some disciplinary consequences
legally require certain types of disclosure, including notation on a student’s transcript. Final
disposition of the record will reside with the Office of Student Records.

Grounds for Appeal


A student/organization may appeal a discipline decision on the following grounds:
H
1. The established student discipline procedures were not followed and as a result, the findings or
disciplinary sanctions imposed by the Dean of Student Success/Designee were not correct.
2. The severity of the disciplinary sanctions imposed were not appropriate based on the nature of
the policy violation or misconduct. For conduct cases in which the accused student/ organization
has accepted responsibility, such appeals shall be limited to having the severity of the disciplinary
C
sanctions reviewed.
3. There is new information that would have been pertinent to the outcome had the information
been available to the Dean of Student Success/Designee before delivering a finding or imposing
disciplinary sanctions. The student/organization must clearly describe the new information in the
R

written request for an appeal and must include any available supporting documentation.
Additionally, the student/organization must show that the new information and supporting
documentation was not known at the time of the Student Conduct Administrative Conference or
Student Conduct Discipline Committee hearing.

Appeal Procedures/Outcomes to the College President


A

The College President will automatically review every sanction of expulsion. A student is entitled to
appeal from the Student Conduct Discipline Committee to the College president, if Grounds for
Appeal are present. An appeal to the College President is informal, but a student’s written appeal will
contain the information required by Grounds for Appeal. A student should file the appeal to the
College President on or before the third (3rd) class day after the Student Conduct Discipline
Committee announces its decision. The College President will receive written briefs and hear oral
argument during their review, if a student chooses to file a written brief.

98
The College President in their review may take any action that the Student Conduct Discipline
Committee is authorized to take (see Student Conduct Discipline Committee Outcomes regarding
appeal outcomes).
The decision of the College President is final.

Interim Disciplinary Procedures


Board Policy: FLB(LOCAL)

ED
In certain circumstances, the Dean of Student Success/Designee shall have the authority to
immediately impose interim disciplinary measures against a student/organization prior to the
completion of the student conduct proceedings. Any interim disciplinary measures imposed may be

Field of Study Curricula
Field of Study Curricula
A Field of Study (FOS) is a selection of lower-division courses that are guaranteed by state law to
transfer and apply to a degree program. If a student takes all the courses in a FOS and then transfers
to another Texas public institution of higher education, the FOS is guaranteed to transfer as a block
and be applied to the appropriate major. If a student has completed the FOS, the Texas common
core curriculum, and any university or college courses required of all students regardless of major,
then the student is finished with all the lower-division courses for the degree program at any Texas

ED
public institution. If a student transfers with an incomplete FOS, then each completed FOS course is
guaranteed to transfer and apply to the degree program, although the institution may require
additional lower-division courses.

The Field of Study curricula that have been approved are incorporated into the associate degree
plans for: Biology, Business, Communications, Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Engineering,
English, History, Mathematics, Interdisciplinary Studies, Music, Government, and Psychology. FOS
designations are also available for Economics and Sociology, an option in Multidisciplinary Studies

Field of Study Curricula approved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board are

IV
incorporated into maps. Houston Guided Pathways (GPS) maps include courses that apply to lower-
level requirements in specified degrees across Houston GPS institutions without resulting in excess
credit upon transfer. Courses are in the Lower-Division Academic Course Guide Manual (ACGM) and
course numbers provided are those in the Texas Common Course Numbering System.
