Service-learning courses typically bear 5-credits andrequire students to complete fifteen hours of servicethroughout the quarter, although variations on this modelmay be offered.

Student activity or behavior which violates any provision ofthe College conduct code is not acceptable; yet, an individualwho enrolls at the College can rightfully expect that the instruc-tors and administrators will exercise with restraint the power ofthe College to regulate student behavior, and that rules and reg-ulations will be adopted only when the education process clearlyand directly requires such legislation. However, restrictive rulesand regulations will not be made without showing relevance tothose conditions toward which they apply. The enforcement ofthese rules and regulations shall be fair and shall be pursued inaccordance with regulations governing student conduct.Sanctions, up to and including expulsion from the College, maybe imposed for failure to satisfy the expectations stated above.These sanctions will determine whether, and under what condi-tions, the violator may continue at the College.

Violations of the Student Conduct Code will lead to disci-plinary action; however, nothing herein will be contrued to denystudents their legally and/or constitutionally protected right(s)to due process. (College Policy 5030 – Student Conduct andDiscipline)

Student Grievance

Students shall have recourse against arbitrary and capriciousactions or decisions relating to academic evaluations by theirinstructors through an orderly procedure. (College Policy 5035– Student Grievance Procedures)

a. When a student believes that he/she has a grievance regard-ing an academic evaluation, he/she should seek out theinvolved faculty member(s), state the nature of the griev-ance, and make a serious attempt to mutually resolve theissue. This step shall be initiated no later than the last dayof the next regular academic quarter, excluding summerquarter.

b. If step a. does not produce a satisfactory result for the stu-dent, he/she may request a meeting with the division chair(or the immediate supervisor) of the involved faculty mem-ber(s) to discuss the grievance within ten (10) instructionaldays of the conclusion of the discussion conducted understep 4(a). The student shall present a written, signed state-ment of the nature of the grievance to the division chair,who shall then attempt to achieve a mutually satisfactoryresolution of the grievance. If the student chooses, he/shemay be accompanied by a representative of the studentbody association or personal counsel.

Dishonest in Academics

Each student is expected to exhibit academic integrity.Shoreline Community College does not permit any form of aca-demic dishonesty, such as cheating or plagiarism.

a. Academic dishonesty occurs when a student provides unau-thorized academic benefits to another student or receivesacademic benefits he/she did not earn through his/her ownefforts, by cheating or plagiarizing.

b. Cheating includes, but is not limited to, conferring anunearned benefit to another student, copying another’swork on an exam, preparing for an exam by using testquestions from a stolen exam, accessing unauthorized mate-rials, or turning in another person’s work as one’s own.

c. Plagiarism is quoting, paraphrasing or summarizing por-tions of another’s work from a published, unpublished orelectronic source without acknowledging that source.

Consequences of any breach of academic integrity shall be clear-ly defined in a course syllabus and may include withholding orcredit lowering of grade, and/or failure (0.0) for the assignmentand/or course, or lesser sanction. Matters involving academicdishonesty may be referred to the Vice President of StudentSuccess for additional disciplinary action(s).

� notifying the Financial Aid Office immediatelywhen they officially withdraw from classes (or whenthey withdraw unofficially by stopping atten dancein their classes); and

� starting each quarter with their own money to payfor their initial expenses, as financial aid checks arenot available until after the first day of the quarter.

Withdrawal From Classes: Should it become necessaryfor a student to withdraw from classes, he or she shouldobtain a Schedule Change Form from Registration. Theform should be completed and returned to Registrationso that the Financial Aid Office is notified. Studentsshould indicate their last day of attendance on theSchedule Change Form (add/drop form). If required,students might have to repay a portion of the aid theyreceived (see following).

Withdrawal or Not Completing Credits After Receiving Financial Aid: Requirements forRepayment and Return of Aid

When students receive financial aid, either by check orby having tuition or other charges paid electronically,they are expected to complete the credits for which theyreceived the aid.

When students officially or unofficially withdraw fromShoreline after they receive financial aid, or if studentscomplete zero credits in any quarter they received finan-cial aid, they might have to repay a portion of the aidthey received or, if dropping a class before the 10th day,their aid might be reduced in their next quarter.Shoreline might also have to return some financial aidfunds to federal or state programs.

Shoreline uses the federal "Return of Title IV Funds"requirements to calculate the amount of federal financialaid that must be repaid by students and the amount thatmust be returned to the federal aid programs byShoreline. This calculation is based on the withdrawaldate.

The federal calculations generally use a student’s dateof official withdrawal or the last documented date ofattendance in class to determine the amount of federalfinancial aid (Title IV SFA program funds) that the stu-dent did not "earn" by remaining enrolled. The amountof Title IV aid funds that the student received in excess ofthe standard costs of attendance for the time in classmust be repaid or returned to the student aid programs.

For the State Need Grant and for the Shoreline Grant,Shoreline’s Institutional Refund policy is used to deter-mine the amounts that must be returned to these stateaid programs, and to determine the amount of non-insti-tutional expenses for the calculation of state aid that mustbe repaid by students.

State funds used for institutional charges will bereturned after federal Title IV aid funds. The federal andstate aid funds will be returned in the following alloca-tion order: Unsubsidized Federal Direct Loan, SubsidizedFederal Direct Loan, FFEL PLUS loan, Federal PellGrant, FSEOG, State Need Grant, and Shoreline Grant(state 31⁄2% funds).

Students are expected to notify the Financial AidOffice immediately when they withdraw officially (orwhen they withdraw unofficially by stopping attendancein their classes). If students owe a repayment of financialaid, they will not be eligible to receive aid in the futureuntil they have repaid the full amount owed.

This policy is subject to change, and a complete copyof the current policy for repayment and return of all aidtypes is available in the financial aid office.

Concurrent EnrollmentStudents are allowed to receive financial aid only fromone college for the same enrollment period — they arenot allowed to receive aid from two colleges at the sametime. Students attending two colleges simultaneously(concurrent enrollment) are eligible to receive aid onlyfrom the college at which they are seeking a degree orcertificate.

The academic year at Shoreline Community College isdivided into three quarters of 11 weeks each and a sum-mer session of eight weeks. In general, a class that meetsone hour a week yields 1 hour of credit per quarter; onethat meets five hours a week yields 5 credit hours.Laboratory and some other classes may vary from thispattern.

A S S E S S M E N T A N D AWA R D I N G O F C R E D I TF O R P R I O R E X P E R I E N T I A L L E A R N I N G ( C P E L )The College recognizes that as adults you may learn col-lege-level knowledge and acquire skills in a variety of situ-ations: employment, military experiences and course

work, internships, independent research, volunteer orcivic work and prior course work. To minimize the loss ofcredit and to prevent the repetition of educationalachievements, a process for awarding credit for priorexperiential learning (CPEL) has been established.

Credit for prior experiential learning is awarded onlyfor college-level learning which took place after highschool and must be related to the current theories, prac-tices and content of the relevant academic field, asassessed by college faculty with current content expertise.The documentation of learning shall be comprehensive,independently verifiable, authentic and up-to-date. Highacademic standards for awarding CPEL credit will beapplied and the evaluation of prior learning will be con-sistent with effective contemporary assessment method-ologies in respective fields. Evaluation of prior learningmay include portfolio reviews, standardized testing,demonstrations, product creation, interviews and/or otherprocesses as determined by academic departments.

Students considering CPEL will meet with facultyadvisors to discuss the feasibility of such credit, the avail-able CPEL options, application process and required doc-umentation.

C O L L E G E L E V E L E X A M I N AT I O N P R O G R A M ( C L E P )Credit is generally not allowed for the College LevelExamination Program (CLEP) general exams or subjectexams. Exceptions can be made by the appropriate division dean.

C R E D I T BY E X A M I N AT I O N ( C H A L L E N G E )As a currently enrolled student at Shoreline CommunityCollege, you may obtain credit for certain courses by sat-isfactorily passing comprehensive examinations, providedthat you have never received college credit for the chal-lenged course or for another course which assumesknowledge of the course being challenged.

If you are considering the Credit-by-Examinationprocess, you must meet with an academic advisor whowill apprise you of the options available, the steps in theapplication process, and required documentation to besubmitted. The advisor will refer you to the appropriatedivision dean. The faculty member of the appropriateinstructional unit will determine if the course (s) areavailable for challenge exam considerations. You may nottake a challenge exam for a course that you have auditedor failed. The faculty member will also apprise you ofother restrictions. The grade that you received in thechallenged course will appear on your transcript. Pleasebe advised that credit received in courses through Credit-by-Examination with a grade of P/NC may not beaccepted by the transfer institution in courses required for

a major. You are advised to check with the transfer insti-tution on this and other restrictions on transferring creditearned through challenge exams. The costs for Credit-by-Examination include a processing fee and the facultyassessment fee.

IMPORTANT: See description of “P” grade on page 31,especially for students intending to transfer to another college oruniversity.

A D VA N C E D P L A C E M E N TStudents who do college-level work in high school canreceive appropriate credit or placement or both on thebasis of performance in the Advanced Placement Program(A.P.) of the College Board. Credit earned throughAdvanced Placement will be recorded with a “P” grade.To receive transfer consideration for A.P. exam scores, students must either have the A.P. Testing Service send anofficial score report to the Shoreline Records Office, or ifthe high school identifies A.P. exam scores on the highschool transcript, alert the Records Office to make note of this.

Advanced Placement scores range from a high of 5 toa low of 1. The various academic areas that offer A.P.credit or placement or both have adopted the same quali-fying scores as the corresponding departments at theUniversity of Washington. Where appropriate, A.P. creditmay apply toward the general or distribution require-ments for the Associate in Arts degree (AA–DTA).

Washington community and technical colleges willaccept in transfer from other community and technicalcolleges unrestricted elective credit for an A.P. score of 3or higher. Credit will be awarded on the basis of officialA.P. results, not transcript notation. For students whotransfer, credits granted for general education or majorrequirements will be specified by the receiving institu-tion's AP credit policies; otherwise, elective credit will begranted.

Shoreline’s General Education curriculum is built ona unique set of outcomes designed to provide ourstudents with the skills, knowledge and awareness

they will need to make informed decisions, lead healthyand productive lives, and contribute to the global com-munity as lifelong learners. Through various experiencesin many different courses, students learn to place theirpersonal knowledge in a wider framework, to expandtheir understanding of themselves and others, and tointegrate their learning across traditional subject bound-aries. The curriculum emphasizes strong skills in com-munication and analytic thought, as well as broad knowl-edge in the major areas of human learning: math andscience, social science, arts and humanities.

� Quantitative Reasoning. Students will demonstratecollege-level skills and knowledge in applying theprinciples of mathematics and logic.

� Communication. Students will read, write, speak in,and listen to college-level English. Effective commu-nication incorporates awareness of the social nature ofcommunication and the effects of ethnicity, age, cul-ture, gender, sexual orientation and ability on sendingand receiving oral, non-verbal, and written messages.

� Multicultural Understanding. Students will demon-strate understanding of issues related to race, socialclass, gender, sexual orientation, disabilities and cul-ture and the role these issues play in the distributionof power and privilege in the United States.

� Information Literacy. Students will access, use andevaluate information in a variety of formats, keepingin mind social, legal and ethical issues surroundinginformation access in today's society.

� General Intellectual Abilities. Students will thinkcritically within a discipline, identify connections andrelationships among disciplines, and use an integratedapproach to analyze new situations.

� Global Awareness. Students will demonstrate under-standing and awareness of issues related to, and consequences of, the growing global interdependenceof diverse societies by integrating knowledge frommultiple disciplines. Students will describe howsocial, cultural, political, and economic values andnorms interact.

These General Education outcomes are broad statementsof what students should ideally be able to do after com-pleting Shoreline’s Associate in Arts or Associate inScience degrees. The College is committed to providingeach student with the opportunity to attain these out-comes; however, individual attainment within and amongthe outcome areas will vary according to each student’sability, readiness and level of commitment. The out-comes are also integrated as appropriate within thedegrees and certificates offered through each of the col-lege’s professional-technical programs.

Shoreline Community College offers Associatedegrees that transfer to baccalaureate institutions-both in state and out of state. To earn an Associate

transfer degree, students need to complete a minimum 90college-level credits that fulfill stated course requirementswith a minimum 2.0 cumulative grade point average(GPA). The GPA required for admission into baccalaure-ate colleges and universities varies; therefore, studentsneed to check admission requirements of the schoolwhere they plan to transfer. While the degree does notguarantee admissions, many Washington state baccalaure-ate institutions give priority admissions to students withan Associate transfer degree. Associate transfer degreesoffered at Shoreline are listed below:

Associate in Arts—Direct Transfer Agreement (AA—DTA)Associate in Science—Transfer (AS—T)-Track 1Associate in Science—Transfer (AS—T)-Track 2Associate in Arts—Individualized Plan (AA—IP)Associate in Fine Arts (AFA—DTA)Associate in Music (AM) (used for transfer to Music Conservatories)

Associate in Applied Science—Transfer (AAS—T)(transfers if an articulation agreement exists between a community college and university)

To improve a transfer application, students are advised totake courses to prepare for a baccalaureate major or pro-fessional program within the Associate degree guidelines.Several Major Related Programs (MRP’s) have beendeveloped to help students select specific courses inpreparation for entrance into baccalaureate degree pro-grams and majors in Washington State. MRP’s are associ-ate degrees including:

Transfer Rights and ResponsibilitiesThe College and students have transfer rights and respon-sibilities that help facilitate students reaching their acade-mic goals and in transferring college course work toanother higher education institution. See StudentsTransfer Rights and Responsibilities at:www.sbctc.ctc.edu/college/s_resources.aspx

Inter-College Transfer PolicyShoreline Community College endorses the Inter-CollegeTransfer Policy between Washington State communityand technical colleges and baccalaureate institutionsapproved by the Higher Education Coordinating Board.Copies of this policy are available through the Registrar’sOffice.

College-level courses offered by regionally accreditedcolleges and universities in the State of Washington shallnormally be accepted in transfer by the receiving institu-tion. In general, only college-level courses numbered 100or above are eligible for transfer. Professional-technicalcourses and programs are generally not transferable tobaccalaureate institutions unless an articulation agree-ment exists between a community college and a universi-ty program. These are known as Associate in AppliedScience—Transfer (AAS—T) programs. Students cantransfer up to 15 credits of professional-technical coursesas restricted transfer electives as part of the DirectTransfer Agreement if they complete the AA-DTA degree.A complete list of restricted electives is on page 42. Someprofessional-technical courses are generally transferable ifan articulation agreement exists between a communitycollege and a university program. Also, receiving institu-tions may limit the number of credits earned with a P-Pass grade in the P/NC or P/0.0 grading system.

To transfer successfully to another institution, stu-dents are encouraged to:

1. Consult with an advisor to determine the best program or degree options for their academic andcareer goals.

2. Obtain a current catalog or visit the website of thereceiving transfer institution to determine both admis-sion and graduation requirements for the college oruniversity, as well as admission and graduationrequirements for the major or professional program.

3. Confer with an admissions officer or academic advisorat the transfer institution for information regardingadmissions requirements, graduation requirements andtransfer policies.

4. Check a quarter or two before graduation to ensure allrequirements have been met before transferring.

Reciprocity Agreement—Washington StateCommunity and Technical CollegesReciprocity is a policy among Washington StateCommunity and Technical Colleges (CTC) designed toassist students transferring among Washington communi-ty colleges to continue working toward an Associate inArts or Associate in Science degree or Major RelatedProgram (MRP). Students who have completed a specificcourse or entire areas of their degree requirements at onecollege will be considered to have met those same require-ments at another Washington State community and tech-nical college. These degree requirements include:Communication Skills, Quantitative/Symbolic Reasoningand distribution requirements in Humanities, Scienceand Social Sciences.

Transfer Evaluation ProcessStudents need to initiate a transcript evaluation processand be prepared to provide all necessary documentationto complete the credit evaluation.

To be eligible for reciprocity, students need to have:

1. Applied for admission to Shoreline CommunityCollege.

2. Completed a course or courses at another college thatmeet the Communications, Quantitative/SymbolicReasoning or Humanities, Science and Social Sciencedistribution requirements in the AA—DTA or AS—Tdegree.

3. Maintained a cumulative college-level GPA of 2.0 orbetter at the previous college.

4. Met the previous college’s residency requirement (minimum number of credits earned).

5. Continue to pursue the same academic transfer degree(AA—DTA or AS—T) at Shoreline.

The Associate in Arts (AA) degree, known as the DirectTransfer Agreement (DTA), is an agreement betweenWashington State Community and Technical Collegesand participating baccalaureate institutions. WashingtonState Colleges and Universities that subscribe to theDirect Transfer Agreement include:

Bastyr Univ ersityCentral Washington UniversityCity UniversityCornish College of the ArtsEastern Washington UniversityGonzaga UniversityHeritage CollegeNorthwest CollegePacific Lutheran UniversitySaint Martin’s UniversitySeattle Pacific UniversitySeattle UniversityThe Evergreen State CollegeUniversity of WashingtonWashington State UniversityWestern Washington UniversityWhitworth College

The AA—DTA transfers as a package to the collegesand universities indicated, satisfying most, if not all, ofthe lower division general education requirements andgranting students junior standing. Nevertheless, somebaccalaureate colleges and universities may still haveunique general education requirements that students willneed to complete after transfer. For students who transferwithout the AA—DTA, courses will be evaluated on acourse-by-course basis by the receiving institution.

The Associate in Arts degree is most often the degreeof choice for students who plan to transfer into majors inthe humanities and social sciences, as well as educationand some health programs. It is also the option of choicefor students who are undecided about their academicmajor.

A S S O C I AT E I N S C I E N C E —T R A N S F E R ( A S — T )

The Associate in Science—Transfer (AS—T) is designedto help students develop a strong foundation in math andscience courses for solid preparation into specific sciencerelated majors. The AS-T degree offers two tracks: Track1 is for students majoring in biological sciences, chem-istry, geology, earth science, environmental science, and

oceanography or for health programs in dentistry, phar-macy and medical school; Track 2 is for students major-ing in astronomy, atmospheric sciences, computer sci-ence, engineering or physics. Students completing theAssociate of Science—Transfer degree will receive thesame priority consideration for admission to baccalaure-ate institutions as they would with the Direct TransferAssociate's degree and will be given junior status by thereceiving institution. The AS-T degree does not stipulatethat students will have met all of the general educationrequirements; students will be expected to complete fur-ther general education requirements after transfer. It isstrongly recommended that students complete an entiresequence of science courses at one institution.

Professional-Technical programs lead to an Associate inApplied Arts and Sciences (AAAS) degree, Certificate ofProficiency (CP) or Certificate of Completion (CC). Theprograms are designed to prepare students to enter theworkforce in specific occupational fields upon completionof the degree or certificate.

Details of the professional-technical programs offeredat Shoreline Community College are in this section of thecatalog. Some programs require a separate application foradmissions and several have prerequisite courses requiredbefore applications are considered; therefore, it is impor-tant that students work closely with program advisorswhen registering for courses in professional-technical pro-grams.

Professional-Technical programs include specific voca-tional course work as well as general education coursesand related instruction in the areas of communication,quantitative reasoning or computation, human relationsand multicultural understanding. If a specific generaleducation course is not required by a professional-techni-cal program, students may choose classes from the list ofgeneral education core courses in the AA-DTA degree. Insome cases, general education requirements are embeddedwithin program-specific courses.

Upon completion of an AAAS degree, students maywant to continue their education by pursuing a bachelor’sdegree. Opportunities to transfer Professional-Technicalprograms to a baccalaureate degree program are expand-ing. Currently, articulation agreements exist with theUniversity of Washington - Bothell, Eastern WashingtonUniversity, Western Washington University, EvergreenState College and Central Washington University forsome approved professional-technical programs. Studentsshould inquire about the availability of an Associate inApplied Science—Transfer (AAS—T) degree in their cho-sen fields. Check with your program advisor and withthese institutions for further information.

Lists of advisory committee members for each of theprofessional-technical programs are available online andin the Office of the Dean of Professional-TechnicalEducation.
