SUNY Orange has articulation agreements with a number of other colleges and universities, which allow students who have completed coursework here to move on to a four year college. The College also boasts a growing number of online courses and is committed to expanding technology to help foster students’ academic growth and access. College Level Entrance Examinations (CLEP), Regents College Examinations (RCE) and Advanced Placement Examinations (AP) There are three examinations that may assist students in receiving college credit for work experience or learning done outside of the college setting. Students can earn college credit by taking and passing the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) Subject Examinations offered by the College Board. The Regents College Examinations (RCE) can be taken through the New York State Proficiency Examination Program. High school students who have completed advanced placement courses may acquire college credit by taking the College Board’s Advanced Placement Examinations (AP). To receive credit for any of these examinations, four conditions must be met: • You must be formally admitted to SUNY Orange. • The credit to be awarded must be applicable to your degree program. • Your scores must be at least equal to the Mean Score for a C (2.0) as recommended by the American Council on Education (ACE) for the CLEP subject area in which you were tested. • Official test results must be sent directly to the College. Additional restrictions, or conditions, for each program are as follows: • In order to receive credit for any composition or literature exam through the CLEP Program, you must also take the optional essay portion of the Subject Examination. The essay must be submitted to SUNY Orange’s Department of English for evaluation. • Credit is awarded for English only if the credit- granting scores recommended by ACE are substantiated by the essay evaluation. • Similarly, the essay component of the AP English exam must be submitted for evaluation by the Department of English before credit may be awarded for scores of 4 or 5. Scores of 3 will be considered after the student has taken a department essay to determine if credit can be awarded.

Note: A person does not acquire New York State Domicile (legal residence) simply by being physically present in New York State for a period of 12 months or for the sole purpose of attending a New York State College or University. If your principal or permanent home has not been New York State for a 12-month period immediately prior to the start date of the semester, you will be considered an out-of-state student for tuition purposes. Certificates are valid for 12 months from the date of issue. A new Certificate must be submitted each year. To prove residence for any county in New York State you must: Have resided in New York State for one year AND resided in your home county for six months prior to the first day of classes. The appropriate documentation and/or certificate must be received within 30 days from the start date of the semester, otherwise the non-resident tuition charge cannot be removed from your bill. Payment (less nonresident tuition) must be made by the established deadline dates. Adjusted bills are available upon request or can be viewed on Self-Service Banner. www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Withdrawal from Course / Holds / Early Registration ORANGE COUNTY RESIDENTS Complete the Affidavit/Application for Certificate of Residence. Include this with your adjusted payment (subtract non-resident tuition amount from balance due). NEW YORK STATE RESIDENTS FROM COUNTIES OTHER THAN ORANGE COUNTY A student from a New York county other than Orange is required to submit a Certificate of Residence from their county of legal residence covering 6 months prior to the first day of classes. To secure the required certificate, follow the procedures below: Contact the Treasurer's Office or Chief Fiscal Officer of your home county to inquire about acceptable forms of proof you will need to prove your residency. Once you have obtained a Certificate of Residence, you must submit the original to SUNY Orange Student Services Central. This will entitle you to pay the resident tuition rate. Please note per New York State Education Law, NY state counties are only required to issue and honor Certificates of Residence dated no earlier than 60 days prior to the start of classes and no later than 30 days after. After the first 30 days of classes, counties will no longer issue certificates of residence and payment for the non-resident tuition charge then becomes the student's responsibility. Late certificates will be accepted by our office, but your account will only be reduced if your county accepts our billing. NEW YORK STATE RESIDENTS WHO HAVE LIVED IN MORE THAN ONE COUNTY DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS Contact each county in which you resided, as a Certificate of Residence will be required from each of those counties. Proceed as indicated above. Students who fail to meet the full six month residence requirement will be charged the non-resident tuition. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR IMMIGRANT AND UNDOCUMENTED ALIENS Immigrant Aliens must have held a Permanent Resident Alien Identification Card ("green card") for one full year and be able to establish New York State residency to be eligible for resident tuition rates.

As of the day of receipt of this form, the appropriate refund schedule will apply. Students who receive financial aid from any of the following sources: Federal Programs (Title IV)-Pell Grant, Supplemental Equal Opportunity Grant (SEOG), Perkins Loan, Federal Family Education Loans and State Grants may be responsible for repaying a portion of their aid if they drop or stop attending classes during the refund period. Withdrawal from classes may also affect eligibility for financial aid for the following semester or academic year. Students will be notified by mail if monies are due the College. ■ Holds Students who have unmet financial obligations or who have failed to comply with College requirements are not permitted to register or receive grades until the hold is cleared with the issuing office.

Documents are processed in the order they are received. After the Financial Aid Office receives your SAR and all requested information, the staff will: • Review the information. • Make an award based on eligibility and availability of funds. • Send a preliminary award letter to first-time freshmen. • Sophomores are directed to view their awards online and print the award letter at your “MySUNYOrange” account. The award letter lists the types and amounts of aid awarded. • The award letter may also list additional requirements that you must fulfill before funds can be disbursed. • Your awards may change after the verification process, or changes in enrollment. If this occurs you will receive an e-mail notification directing you to your MySUNYOrange Award Letter page. You should keep your award letter with your SAR. You must keep your name, address, e-mail address and telephone number current with the Student Accounts Office on campus. When a student is determined to be eligible for financial aid, tuition and fees may be covered to the extent of the aid, provided the student's financial aid file is completed by the target due date. If the aid is not sufficient to cover tuition and fees, the student is responsible for the balance, which is due by the officially published payment due date. If the aid exceeds the cost of actual tuition and fees, a refund will be issued to the student from the Student Accounts Office (See published disbursements dates on the Office’s web pages). Summer Sessions Please contact the Financial Aid Office for further information on requirements for summer financial aid. Please visit our website at www.sunyorange.edu/financialaid. Target Dates This information is provided as a guide and is subject to change without notice to comply with federal, state, and institutional policies. Target dates are not deadlines. Target dates ensure that the financial aid funds you are eligible to receive will be on your account for tuition deferment before the payment due date. After these target dates, applications for financial aid and loans can still be processed, but you may have to arrange for alternative means of payment, such as using your own funds or participating in the Tuition Payment Plan, until your financial aid processing is completed. Target Dates for PELL Grants and Direct Loans: • Fall Enrollees: July 1st • Spring Enrollees: December 1st Target Date for Campus-Based Aid [Including Federal Work-Study (FWS), and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG)]: • Fall Enrollees: April 15th ■ Award Package Offering • Once you have been awarded aid, you will receive an award letter that lists the various types of aid you are eligible to receive during the award year. Awards are based on full-time (12 or more credit hours) status; some awards may be adjusted if you do not enroll as a full-time student. However, aid will automatically be pro-rated at the time of disbursement if you are not full-time. If it is determined that you are not eligible for aid after it is awarded, the Financial Aid office is required to adjust your awards. • All Student Aid Reports go through a review process before any aid is disbursed. If a student is selected for verification all required documents must be submitted and verified with the information on the Student Aid Report before any disbursements can be finalized.

To get an idea of your college expenses, use the Net Price Calculator at www.sunyorange.edu/financialaid/index.shtml. • To get an idea of your monthly loan payments after you graduate, see the Repayment Calculator at http s:// studentaid .ed.gov /repay loans/ understand/plans/#estimator. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Financial Aid • You have the right to decline the loan or to request a lesser amount. • Remember that loan money must be paid back with interest. You should only borrow as a last resort. ■ Federal Standard For Satisfactory Academic Progress Federal regulations (Sections 668.16(e).668.32(f) and 668.34) require that schools monitor the academic progress of all applicants for federal financial assistance and that the schools certify that applicants are making satisfactory academic progress toward earning their degree. This determination of progress must be made at least once a year for degree programs, and at the end of every semester for certificate programs before the Financial Aid Office disburses any federal aid funds for the subsequent semester. Federal Title IV programs include: PELL, and Stafford Loans, Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant & Federal Work Study. Our web page at: www.sunyorange.edu/financialaid/sap/ contains a chart for your convenience on the calculation of Satisfactory Academic Progress and how your eligibility is affected by Program Pace, Cumulative Grade Point Average, and Maximum Program time frame. Academic progress is checked at the end of each academic year for degree programs and at the end of every semester for certificate programs. SUNY Orange’s academic year for Associate Degree programs is measured from May to May. If you fail to meet the minimum completion percentage (attempted vs. accumulated credit hours) or maintain the minimum grade point average you will forfeit all federal financial aid. If you have reached the maximum number of attempted credits without earning a degree, you will be excluded from further participation in federal financial aid programs (PELL grants, Direct Loans, and Federal Work Study). Federal regulations require that these standards apply to all students. Attempted hours are those hours for which you were still officially registered at the conclusion of each semester's Add/Drop period. Withdrawals are counted as attempted hours. Maximum hours to earn degree: To quantify academic progress, a school must set a maximum time frame in which a student is expected to complete a program. For an undergraduate program, the maximum time frame cannot exceed 150% of the published length of the program measured in credit hours attempted. The majority of SUNY Orange undergraduate programs require 66 hours for graduation. The maximum time frame for students in these programs is 99 attempted hours (66 x 1.5=99). • Withdrawals: All grades including W are counted as courses attempted and count toward the maximum time frame. • Audited Courses: You do not earn any academic credits for audited courses. However, these courses count in the calculation of your "attempted hours." • Pass/Fail Courses: These hours do count within the total of attempted and earned hours. • Transfer Credits accepted for your academic program, are counted as credits attempted and credits earned and are also used to calculate the maximum time frame to complete your program. • Developmental Credits are not counted in your academic program, but they are counted in your total of accepted and accumulated hours. • Double Majors and/or Minors: If you pursue a double major/minor you will normally be expected to complete all degree requirements before reaching 99 attempted hours. • Change in Majors: If you change your major you will normally be expected to complete all degree requirements before reaching 99 attempted hours. • 2nd Associate’s Degree: If you have already been awarded an Associate’s degree, you may apply for a second degree only if the second degree is different from the first degree. Ordinarily, a second degree at the undergraduate level is discouraged, and a Bachelor’s degree is encouraged. • You will be limited to how much you can borrow under the Direct Loan Program. These limits are not increased for students working on additional degrees. • PELL grants are limited to the equivalent of 12 full- time semesters. If you are enrolled in a Certificate Program you are allowed a total of 45 credits attempted to complete the program. If you are enrolled in an Associate Degree Program you are allowed a total of 99 attempted credits to complete the program. ■ Financial Aid Probation If you have fallen below the completion ratio on the Satisfactory Academic Progress chart published on the SUNY Orange Financial Aid web pages, and/or you have failed to maintain the required minimum GPA associated with that completion ratio, you will be placed on federal financial aid probation. You will be allowed only one probationary semester during your academic plan if an appeal is granted. While on financial aid probation you will receive a separate letter that will outline the academic requirements you must meet in order to receive federal financial aid for the following semester. If you meet the terms of financial aid probation, you will be permitted to continue to participate in federal student aid programs (PELL grants, loans, and Federal Work Study) for subsequent semesters. If you have been placed on financial aid probation you shall be considered to be making satisfactory academic progress for the purposes www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Financial Aid of receiving federal financial aid as long as you continue to meet the academic requirements outlined in your probationary letter. While on Financial Aid probation, the Financial Aid Office will review your academic transcript at the end of the following semester to ensure you meet the conditions of your probation in relation to Progress and Grade Point Average. If you do not meet the terms of your probation, you will forfeit eligibility for all Federal Financial Aid programs (PELL grants, Loans, Federal Work Study). Grade Changes Students who are receiving aid on a probationary basis must resolve all incomplete grades before the Financial Aid Office can make a final determination of the satisfactory academic progress guidelines. Students must report any grade changes that impact their aid eligibility directly to the Financial Aid Office. Students must notify the Financial Aid Office once their final grades have been posted. Probation Standards Not Met If you have lost eligibility to participate in federal student aid programs for reasons of academic progress, you may regain eligibility by enrolling at SUNY Orange at your own expense, and making up the Deficiency of Progress or GPA. The mere passage of time will not ordinarily restore eligibility to a student who has failed to make satisfactory academic progress policy. If you have been academically dismissed from SUNY Orange but are subsequently given permission to re-enroll, you are not automatically eligible to continue to participate in Federal Financial Aid programs. Admissions decisions are totally separate from funding decisions. ■ Right to Appeal To appeal your Satisfactory Academic Progress status, you must submit a Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal Form at: https://sunyorange.edu/machform/view.php?id=210312 along with any required documentation, detailing the extenuating circumstances that contributed to your not meeting the SAP standards. Considerations for appeals exist if you had a severe illness, medical condition, injury, traumatic life altering experience, or the death of a parent that prevented you from being successful in the semester in which you did poorly. Submitting an appeal does not guarantee approval to reinstate your eligibility for receiving financial aid. The decision of the Appeals Committee is final. Deadlines: To ensure that Financial Aid funds for which you may be eligible are on your account before the payment due date, you should submit your appeal by: Summer — June 1st; Fall — June 15th; and Spring — December 15th. If an appeal is submitted after the deadline dates, you will need to make arrangements for alternative means of payment until your Financial Aid can be processed, using your own funds or participating in the Tuition Payment Plan. Appeals submitted after the current deadline dates will be evaluated for the following semester. Appeal Approval Conditions: Appeals can only be approved if the Financial Aid Appeals Committee determines : • You will be able to meet SUNY Orange’s Satisfactory Academic Progress chart after the next payment period; or • You have agreed to follow an Academic Plan that, if followed, will ensure that the student can meet the college’s Satisfactory Academic Progress guidelines by a specific point in time. If an Appeal is granted: If your appeal is granted you will receive aid on a conditional basis for one semester (this is known as the probationary period). The conditions will be outlined in a letter sent to you granting the appeal. The Financial Aid Appeals Committee will review your record at the end of the semester to determine your status for the following semester. Students who fail to meet the conditions outlined in their individualized academic plans during their conditional semester will not be allowed to submit a subsequent appeal. ■ Federal Financial Aid Programs Federal PELL Grant The PELL Grant is a grant from the Federal government and does not have to be repaid.

The consequences of academic dishonesty may include academic penalties, disciplinary action, or even legal action. The primary responsibility for dealing with academic dishonesty rests with the faculty member. The definition of academic dishonesty in the College’s “Code of Student Conduct” includes, but is not limited to: (a) cheating; (b) fabrication; (c) facilitating academic dishonesty; (d) plagiarism; (e) forgery; (f) bribery; or (g) multiple submissions (submitting the same assignment to more than one instructor without the permission of the instructors).

A course requirement in a particular degree may be waived with the approval of (1) the chair of the department which offers the course, (2) the chair which sponsors the degree, and (3) the appropriate Associate Vice President. No college credit is granted for successful performance on a high school equivalency test. Courses used to meet the General Education requirements for the A.A.S. degree cannot also be used to meet the major-field requirement of 20 credits. ■ Multiple Associate Degrees The Registrar will award multiple degrees when students complete a minimum of fifteen credit hours at the College that were not required or applied to the first degree and satisfy all other requirements for awarding of a degree. A student may earn multiple AS degrees, or multiple AAS degrees, or an AA and an AS. Only one AA degree may be awarded with the following exception. Because of its distinct and separate nature from other programs, the AA in International Studies may be awarded as a second AA degree. (5/14/97) All grades earned in courses taken at this College applied to an additional degree will be included in the CGPA for the additional degree. ■ Graduation Participation Participation in the College’s Commencement ceremony is limited to the following students and criteria: those who met the requirements of a program, registered by the New York State Education Department and the State University of New York; potential August graduates who have no more than 6 credits remaining or 2 courses which do not exceed 8 credits left to finish over the subsequent Summer Semesters.

The grade received on the final attempt automatically becomes the official grade. It replaces, in computation of CGPA, any previous grade in the same course. Some academic courses may be repeated for credit only once with Curriculum Committee review and approval. Department Chairs, with the approval of the appropriate Associate Vice President, may waive this policy, and appeals for denials will be processed using the Academic Grievance Process. Students who fail to achieve the minimum grade required for progression or graduation and may no longer repeat that course are thereby removed from the program/curriculum, but not necessarily separated from the College. ■ Transfer Credits Credit courses successfully completed at a United States Department of Education approved college, with a grade of C or better, may be accepted to fulfill graduation requirements. Such courses, if accepted, do not affect the CGPA at this College. Students may appeal any decision of the College not to accept a credit course for transfer credit using the appropriate processes. ■ Advanced Placement The College may grant credit for high school advance placement courses in which the student earns a grade of 3 or higher on the final examination. Additional departmental criteria may apply. ■ New York State Regents College Examination Program (formerly the New York State College Proficiency Examination Program) The College may accept for credit college courses which the student has successfully passed in the New York State Regents College Examination Program. ■ Credit by Examination The discipline areas or departments will determine those courses for which credit by examination is available. The college maintains a list of College Level Examination Program (CLEP) tests that are accepted for credit. In addition, department chairs may create course specific examinations. Departments offering course specific exams for credit must develop procedures for student application. The grading of departmental examinations is pass/fail and a grade of P will be recorded on the transcript of a student who is success¬ful in passing an examination. Students who successfully pass CLEP examinations will be awarded appropriate transfer credit. Credits earned by taking an examination cannot be applied toward the fulfillment of the 30 credit hour residency requirement for an Associate Degree. ■ Expiration of Earned College Credits While the college wants to honor all credit courses successfully completed at the college and most credits do not expire, some exceptions exist and these are maintained at the Office of the Registrar. ■ Course Prerequisite/Permitted List Students are required to complete all prerequisite courses. Department Chairs, or their designee, are authorized to waive the prerequisites for a course. Students in the process of completing required developmental education courses may only register for credit courses from the appropriate Permitted List(s) (see the course catalog). Students placing into more than one developmental course may only register for courses that appear on all applicable Permitted Lists. ■ Academic Freedom The Faculty Contract guarantees academic freedom to the faculty. It is described as follows: The teacher is entitled to freedom in the classroom in discussing the subject, but may not claim as a right, the privilege of discussing controversial matter that has no relation to the subject. The teacher is entitled to full freedom, within the law, of inquiry and research and in the publication of the results, but not at the expense of adequate performance of other academic duties. The college teacher is a citizen, a member of a learned profession and representative of an educational institution. When speaking, writing, or acting, within the law as a citizen, the teacher shall be free from institutional censorship or discipline, but our unique position in the community imposes special obligations. As persons of learning and as representatives of an educational institution, we should remember that the public might judge our profession and our institution by our utterances and our actions. Hence, we must at all times be accurate, exercise appropriate restraint, show respect for the opinion of others, and indicate that we are not speaking for our institution. Other policies also describe expectations relating to professional ethics for College employees. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Office Hours / Course Syllabi / Dean’s List/ Independent Study / Probation & Separation ■ Office Hours Full-time members of the faculty are required to maintain the number of office hours specified in the Agreement with the Faculty Association. Office hours should be chosen in such a way as to maximize the opportunity for advisees and others to make appointments. ■ Course Outlines/Syllabi Course Outlines/Syllabi are to be distributed to students and appropriate department chairs at the beginning of each semester. Each syllabus must contain the elements identified in the course syllabus template distributed by the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. This template will be reviewed and revised annually in collaboration with the Academic Policy Committee. Additional departmental policies may also appear on course syllabi. ■ Eligibility for Dean's List All full-time students not on probation who earned a GPA of at least 3.33 the previous semester are placed on the Dean's list. Part-time students who achieve a CGPA of 3.3 or higher for each full-time equivalent semester of study completed shall be placed on the Dean's list. A full-time equivalent semester is defined as the completion of twelve credit hours of study. ■ Independent Study Independent study will be assigned to faculty on a voluntary basis at the recommendation of the Department Chair and approval by the AVP of the appropriate division and VPAA. Such study is defined as a one faculty member to one student educational experience. Independent study may be authorized when: A.the student needs credit for graduation, and B. the student is unable to take a course when usually offered due to extenuating circumstances. ■ Deadline for Class Registration The deadline for students to register for a full semester class is five business days after the beginning of the semester or its equivalent for part of term courses. Thereafter, registration requires the course Instructor and appropriate Department Chair approval. ■ Change of Program (Major) A.Students can change their program (Major) by following the procedures outlined in the College Catalog. B. Change of program (Major) results in a change of catalog term (See page 35) ■ Academic Standing Academic Standing for all students except those coded as DEVL: 1. Students are in Good Standing if CGPA ≥2 2. Students are placed on Academic Probation with a 14 credit limit if they have: a. CGPA<2 b. Attempted at least 30 non-DEVL credits, CGPA < 1.5 and Term GPA is ≥2 3. Students are Academically Separated if they have attempted at least 30 non-DEVL credits, CGPA < 1.5, and Term GPA < 2. 4. Grades of W, I, or M are not counted as credits attempted. Pass or fail grades earned in developmental courses are not counted as units/credits attempted. Academic Standing for students coded as DEVL (i.e. placed into two or more developmental courses): In accordance with Academic Policy 23. B -Academic standing parameters for students who have placed into two or more developmental courses. Reviews take into account academic performance in the semester under review plus overall CGPA.

Academic Separation Students who are Academically Separated may not enroll in any credit course offered in the day, evening, weekend, or summer of any semester or session offered by the College, at any site, for a period of one year. Academic Appeal Procedure Students who have been placed on Academic Probation or who have been Academically Separated may appeal the status to an Appeals Board. Appeals of Academic Probation and Academic Separation from the College are adjudicated by an Appeals Board, convened by the Vice President of Academic Affairs after the conclusion of the Fall and Spring semesters of each academic year. Appeals Boards shall be composed of 3-5 members (faculty or department chairs), one of whom will serve as Chair of the Appeals Board, and all shall be selected by the Vice President for Academic Affairs (or designee) based on responses to a call for service at the end of each semester. ■ Fresh Start Policy This policy is intended to provide a “fresh start” for students who have earned unsatisfactory grades in courses that are not explicitly required for their current program of study. A student can only be awarded ONE Fresh Start. Once a Fresh Start has been applied to the student’s transcript it is permanent. To be eligible for a Fresh Start, a student must meet all the following criteria: 1. Be matriculated in a registered degree or certificate program at the College. 2. Be currently enrolled in classes. 3. Have an overall GPA lower than 2.0 at the time of the request. 4. Have not previously been granted a Fresh Start. Application of the Fresh Start means: 1. Credits and grades not explicitly required for the current program of study will be omitted from the student’s overall GPA until it reaches as close as possible to 2.0. 2. Grades omitted from the re-calculation will, however, remain on the transcript and be identified on the transcript by the symbol “X”. 3. The student has acknowledged in writing the restrictions of this policy via student signature on the Fresh Start application. If the application is denied by the Registrar or the Registrar’s designee, a written appeal may be made to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. ■ Official Withdrawals Official Withdrawal from a Course When a student finds it necessary to withdraw from one or more courses, he or she must submit an Add/Drop Form with appropriate signatures by the end of the 12th week or its equivalent (see Academic Calendar). A student who officially withdraws from a course between the 4th and 12th week or its equivalent will have the course appear on his/her transcript with a grade of W. For a student to withdraw from a developmental English, reading or writing course he or she must receive approval from the appropriate Divisional Associate Vice President or designee. The forms are submitted to the Registrar for placement in the student’s academic file. The same applies to a student to withdraw from a developmental math course after having attempted 24 non-developmental credits. Official Withdrawal from the Semester When a student finds it necessary to withdraw from all courses (including developmental) during a semester, he or she must submit an Add/Drop form with an Official Withdrawal from College Form with the appropriate signatures by the end of the 12th week or its equivalent (see Academic Calendar). A student who officially withdraws from the semester between the 4th and 12th week or its equivalent will have the course(s) appear on his/her transcript with a grade of W. Official Withdrawal or Leave of Absence from a course(s) because of a medical condition When students request either a medical leave of absence or a full medical withdrawal from the college or course(s), they must submit written verification from the health care provider and all other required documentation to Student Services Central before the end of the semester in which the condition occurs. If requesting a medical leave of absence, the appropriate medical documentation must contain an anticipated return date. All such information given to the college is treated as confidential and privileged, as allowable by law. The Director of the Wellness Center will verify that proper medical documentation has been received and will communicate his/her findings to the Registrar, who will either approve or deny the request. The student has the right to appeal this decision to the VPAA using the academic grievance procedure. Note that approvals do no generate an automatic refund of tuition, waiver of the physical education requirement, or waiver of financial aid requirements. ■ Audit of a Course Students may change to/from audit status in accordance with the Academic calendar. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Developmental Courses / Academic Calendar / Students’ Rights ■ Developmental Courses A.Completion of developmental courses and/or sequences into which a student has been placed by assessment to the college is required. B.Students must have completed all developmental courses and/or sequences into which they have been placed prior to applying for graduation. C.Students placed in developmental writing and reading and study courses must be enrolled in these courses during every semester of attendance until they receive a grade of DVP in these courses. D.Students placed in developmental math courses must complete these courses, even though there may not be a specific math requirement in their curriculum. If a student has not successfully completed these courses (MAT 010 and MAT 020 sequence) by the time they have attempted 24 non-developmental credits, the student must enroll in these courses every semester until they receive a grade of “DVP.” Grades of “DVP” must be received in these courses prior to applying for graduation. E. Students will be permitted to re-take an assessment test with the approval of the appropriate Department Chair or his/her designee (i.e. the Chair of English Department for Reading and Writing and the Chair of the Math Department for Math), or AVP of Enrollment Management, only prior to attendance in classes. F. The appropriate Department Chairs or his/her designee (i.e. English and Math) may waive placement. (Academic Policy #15 permits Department Chairs to waive prerequisites.) G.Developmental courses may be prerequisites for certain college credit courses (i.e. WRT 040 Basic Writing II is a prerequisite for ENG 101 Freshman English I and MAT 020 Developmental Algebra is a prerequisite for MAT 101 Elementary Algebra). H.Students who place into any developmental reading and/or writing courses must successfully complete all of their developmental reading and writing coursework before registering for distance learning/hybrid courses. I. This Policy applies to all students regardless of the number of developmental courses they are required to take. Students who receive a grade of “DVF” in a particular developmental course will be allowed to repeat that developmental course only two additional times for a total of three attempts. “Attempts” include those made in summer sessions. After a second attempt, students who do not pass a developmental course must meet with one of the Associate Vice Presidents for Academic Affairs. If students do not successfully complete a particular developmental course on the third attempt, they will be separated from the College for one year. Students may not appeal separation except if they met with an Academic AVP after the second unsuccessful attempt and provide documented extenuating circumstances. Upon return to the college following a separation, students will be granted one attempt to successfully repeat the course(s). A grade of “DVF” in this attempt will result in another year’s separation with no option to appeal. If a student appeals separation from the college, a Developmental Review Board is convened by the Vice President of Academic Affairs and is composed of a chair and four faculty members with at least one representative from the English Department and one representative from the Math Department. The chair of the board is the Coordinator of Learning Assistance Services or a designee. The board is assembled by the chair who selects from a list of faculty volunteers who request to serve on the Board. ■ Academic Calendar The academic calendar shall be such that it protects the integrity of the credit offerings, complies with contractual obligations, and accounts for state and federal mandates. ■ Students’ Rights The professor in the classroom and in conference should encourage free discussion, inquiry, and expression. Student performance should be evaluated solely on an academic basis, not on opinions or conduct in matters unrelated to academic standards. Protection of Freedom of Expression Students should be free to take reasoned exceptions to the data or views offered in any course of study and to reserve judgment about matters of opinion, but they are responsible for learning the content of any course of study for which they are enrolled. Protection Against Improper Academic Evaluation Students should have protection through orderly procedures against prejudiced or capricious academic evaluation. At the same time, they are responsible for maintaining standards of academic performance established for each course in which they are enrolled. Protection Against Improper Disclosure Information about student views, beliefs, and political associations which professors acquire in the course of their work as instructors, advisors, and counselors should be considered confidential. Protection against improper disclosure is a serious professional obligation and governed by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Judgments of ability and character may be provided under appropriate circumstances, with the written consent of the student. www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Class Cancellation / Individual Exceptions to Academic Policies ■ Cancellation of Classes due to Inclement Weather Only the President and the Vice President for Administration and Finance are authorized to cancel classes for the day, the evening, or both. ■ Reports on Educational Travel and Field Trips Procedures have been developed to support academic travel and field trips. Faculty and students are expected to adhere to the procedures for obtaining approval for academic travel and field trips.

This will be used as the method of communication when administrative offices, academic departments and faculty need to communicate with students. Electronic communication through the use of the college’s learning management system (e.g. Angel or Blackboard) remains at the discretion of the instructor and should be communicated to the student in the course syllabus. ■ Change of Catalog Term A.Students follow the program requirements of the catalog term in which they were originally admitted except in the cases of 1) readmission, or 2) change of program (major). In those cases, the student will follow the program requirements of the catalog term in effect at the time of change. B. Non-health professions students may also request to follow the program requirements of a more recent catalog term, but they may not mix program requirements from different terms for the same program. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu This page intentionally left blank www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Registration Information and Student Records The Registrar maintains students' records, sets the academic master schedule, distributes grades and administers many of the College's academic policies.

The Vice President for Academic Affairs is authorized to waive the application of any College academic policy in a particular case. Academic Year The academic year is composed of two semesters—Fall and Spring—each of which is a minimum of 15 instructional weeks long. Courses offered in the summer are a minimum of six weeks. Winter session courses, when offered, are usually three or four weeks in duration. Cancellation of Classes Classes may be cancelled due to low enrollment. However, any cancellation will be announced no later than the Friday before a full semester begins or on the day before a half semester begins. During the semester, individual classes will be cancelled for the day, evening or both when hazardous driving conditions or similar inclement weather circumstances make such action advisable. Cancellation of day classes does not necessarily mean evening classes are also cancelled. Cancellation of day classes is usually announced at no later than 6 a.m. on the impacted day while cancellation of evening classes is usually announced at approximately 2 p.m. News regarding delays and cancellations can be found on the College’s website and social media sites, broadcast over local radio stations, and announced on the College’s main telephone number, (845) 344-6222. The College reserves the right to reschedule classes. Generally, evening classes are made up on the Friday evening of the next week. Change of Program To move from one SUNY Orange degree program to another, a student must complete a Change of Curriculum form. The department chairperson for the new degree program must approve the change. In order for a change of curriculum to be processed for the current semester, the form must be received by the Registrar’s Office by the end of the third week of the semester. Any change of curriculum received after the third week will be effective for the subsequent term. Forms are available from Student Services Central or online. Conduct Expected of Students The College reserves the right to dismiss any student who exhibits conduct incompatible with the purposes of 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Academic Procedures / Course Policies and Procedures the College. The SUNY Orange Board of Trustees, administration, faculty, and staff have a primary concern for the academic achievement, standards and personal integrity of our students; recognize their obligation to protect college property; and take a special interest in the mental and physical health of the college community. Committed to preserving the peace, uplifting campus morale and creating a civil climate on its campuses, SUNY Orange has adopted specific policies and procedures regarding student conduct. These policies and procedures, in the form of the Code of Student Conduct, are published in the Student Handbook available online at www.sunyorange.edu/studentservices/index.html Developmental Course Placement For students who have tested into two or more developmental subjects (reading, writing or mathematics), the College has the following academic procedures in place to monitor their progress: • A Developmental Review Board is convened by the Vice President of Academic Affairs and is comprised of a chair and four faculty members with at least one representative from the English Department and one representative from the Math Department. The chair of the board is the Director of Academic Support and Testing or a designee. The board is assembled by the chair who selects from a list of faculty volunteers who request to serve on the Board. • Students who are placed on academic probation (earned less than 2.0 Cum GPA) or receive a DVF, ZDF, or DVH in a developmental course will be sent a letter stating that the student’s records have been reviewed. Based on a student’s academic progress, there may be a limit placed on the number of credits that the student may take. Students will have the option of meeting with the Developmental Review Board to discuss their circumstances and to appeal the credit limit decision. The following policy is in place for students regardless of the number of developmental courses they are required to take: • Students who receive a grade of “DVH” or “DVF” in a particular developmental course will be allowed to repeat that developmental course only two additional times for a total of three attempts. “Attempts” include those made in summer sessions. After a second attempt, students who do not pass a developmental course must meet with one of the Associate Vice Presidents for Academic Affairs. If students do not successfully complete a particular developmental course on the third attempt, they will be separated from the College for one year. Students may not appeal separation except if they met with an Academic AVP after the second unsuccessful attempt and provided documented extenuating circumstances. Upon return to the college following a separation, students will be granted one attempt to successfully repeat the course(s). A grade of “DVH” or “DVF” in this attempt will result in another year’s separation with no option to appeal. • The advisor and student will use the Placement Test results to ensure that the student takes the required courses at the appropriate level. Students must take the required reading and writing courses each semester until their developmental requirements have been successfully completed. Students who place into developmental math courses must complete these courses even though there may not be a specific math requirement for their program. As determined by Academic Departments, students must select degree credit courses from the permitted lists (See Permitted Lists in the Learning Assistance Services Section of the Catalog). ■ Course Policies and Procedures Prerequisites A prerequisite course is one that prepares a student for more advanced courses in an academic field. Prerequisites may be waived or substituted at the discretion of the appropriate department chair. A signed waiver form approved by the department chairperson must be filed with the Registrar’s Office. Students with credits earned at a previous institution are urged to check with the Registrar’s Office to determine appropriate course equivalencies. Note: Course prerequisites are noted online as part of the catalog in the course descriptions area and also online as part of the course section search feature. A student without the appropriate prerequisites or waiver can be withdrawn from the course by the instructor or by the Registrar. Course Outline/Syllabus Course outlines and/or syllabi are distributed to students and appropriate department chairs at the beginning of each semester. Each syllabus must contain the elements identified by the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Elements that may be included in a course outline/syllabus are: heading; catalog description; relationship to programs; student learning outcomes; chronology of study; grading system; types of tests; instructional materials; attendance policy; instructor withdrawal policy; support services; office location, hours and phone; campus e-mail address; religious observance; and appropriate Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) information. Departments may have their own policies regarding additional information and end-of-the-semester reports. Repeating a Course Repeating a course means taking a course after having received a grade of A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D+, D, D-, F, ZF, W or M in that course. When a student repeats a course, the grade and credits earned in the last attempt are calculated in the academic average, unless the grade is a “W” or “M.” All grades remain on the student’s record. Students who receive financial aid should check www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Course Policies and Procedures with the Financial Aid Office before repeating a course in which a grade of D or better was earned. Audit of Course Students who wish to audit a course, where they do not earn credit or a grade in that course, must complete a special permission form, available at Student Services Central or online, when they register. Nursing courses are not subject to audit. Students may, however, change their status from audit to credit or vice versa, if they file the special permission forms by the end of the third week of classes (or its equivalent for summer sessions). Instructors are not required to evaluate the work of audit students. Those students who are eligible for financial aid should consult with the Financial Aid Office before registering or changing to audit status. If audited courses are included in 12 credits of course work, a student may become ineligible for TAP and other financial aid programs. Students are obligated to pay in full all tuition and fees whether or not they attend classes unless they officially drop classes. Credit Load Credit load refers to the total number of credits a student is taking in a semester. Twelve or more credits per semester is considered a full-time course load; while ½ to 11½ credits per semester is considered part-time. Students generally may schedule their classes in the day or evening, or both, in accordance with their particular needs. However, if a student wants to take more than the maximum credit load, (19.5 or more credits in a semester, or 8.5 or more in a summer session) the appropriate associate vice president must approve. Schedule Changes and Withdrawals Student schedules will be given only to the student, who must also show proper photo identification. Should a student need to change any portion of his or her schedule, or to withdraw from the College during the semester, the following policies have been established: Official Withdrawal from the College To apply for an Official Withdrawal from the College and all of the current semester’s courses, a student must meet the deadlines published in the appropriate course schedule. The student needs to discuss a withdrawal with his or her academic advisor and begin the formal process with Student Services Central. Since the student’s financial aid and future academic record may be affected, the student must carefully follow the formal steps. The student must complete the Total Withdrawal from the College Form with appropriate signatures by the deadlines published in the current academic calendar. An exit interview with an Advising Office staff member is required for all degree-seeking students. Students who receive any form of financial aid are required to obtain a financial aid officer’s signature. Part-time, non-degree-seeking students should complete and file their forms with Student Services Central. Medical Withdrawal A student may withdraw from all semester courses for medical reasons. For the medical withdrawal process, contact the Wellness Center. When a student must withdraw from the College or courses due to personal medical reasons, he or she should obtain written verification from the physician and include it with all other required forms. The physician’s statement should list the dates of the condition and provide a general description of the student’s state of health and its effect on the student’s ability to attend classes. All such information maintained by the college is treated as confidential. The student's request for medical withdrawal and appropriate forms should be submitted to the Wellness Center before the end of the semester in which the illness occurs. If a third party is acting on behalf of the student at any point during the Medical Withdrawal process they are required to have a signed letter from the student giving them permission and show picture ID at time of service. This is in adherence with the College’s Red Flag Policy. Withdrawals approved for medical reasons do not generate an automatic refund of tuition, waiver of the physical education requirement, nor waiver of financial aid requirements. Students should fill out and submit a Request for Tuition Credit Appeal form as well as consult with the appropriate offices concerning these items. Withdrawal from a Non-Developmental Course A student may withdraw from a non-developmental course by following the deadlines posted in the registration calendar (see current course schedule), completing the appropriate forms available and obtaining the advisor’s signature. Withdrawal from a Developmental Course Per Academic Policy, students may not withdraw from developmental courses. Students may seek special permission to withdraw from an Academic Associate Vice President. Documentation of extenuating circumstances is required. To withdraw from a developmental Mathematics course, no permission is needed if the student has not yet attempted 24 non-developmental credits. If a student has already attempted 24 non-developmental credits, he/she must obtain the permission of an Academic Associate Vice President (or designee). Impact Upon Financial Aid Awards Students who receive financial aid should check with the Financial Aid Office since current or future aid may be affected by such actions as: • withdrawal (medical or voluntary) from either a single course or from all courses. • repeating a course in which a grade of D or better was earned. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Grades and Grading ■ Grades and Grading Grades, Quality Points and Cumulative GPA SUNYOrangeusesafour-pointgradingsystem,based onlettergradesofA,B,C,DandF.Eachgradeis assignedanumericvalue: A=4.00 A-=3.67 B+=3.33 B=3.00 B-=2.67 C+=2.33 C=2.00 C-=1.67 D+=1.33 D=1.00 D-=.67 F=0 ZF=0(failure;stoppedattendingbeforethe10th weekofthesemesteroritsequivalentanddidnot officiallywithdrawfromthecourse) Tocalculatequalitypoints,multiplythenumberofcredits ofacoursebythenumericvalueofthegradeearned.For example:AnA(4qualitypoints)inFreshmanEnglish1(3 credits)produces12qualitypoints(4x3=12)andaC( 1.67qualitypoints)inCalculus1(4credits)produces6.68 qualitypoints(1.67x4=6.68).

Non-Health Professions students who were in attendance prior to Fall 2010 but who have taken semesters off should follow the catalog year in which they were first readmitted and attended after the Summer 2010 semester. Students may choose to follow later catalog versions. The Registrar’s Office will, however, base the student’s degree audit upon the first semester of readmission and attendance after Fall 2010, unless otherwise notified in writing by the student. The only students eligible to follow a pre-Fall 2010 catalog year are non-Health Professions students who have been in continuous attendance since prior to Fall 2010. ■ Final Examination Schedules Final examinations are not required in all courses. During the Fall and Spring semester, for the mandatory 15th week, a special schedule is developed for all day classes. Final examinations will not necessarily be held on the same day or at the same time, during the Fall/Spring semesters, as the regularly scheduled course. The special schedule for final examinations of day classes is developed and distributed by the Registrar. Examinations for evening classes during the Fall and Spring semesters are usually held during the last week, on the same day of the week and at the same time as the regularly scheduled course. See the academic calendar for the dates of the final examination period. ■ Graduation Graduation Application Graduation and participation in the commencement ceremony are not automatic. Students must initiate the process themselves. The Graduation Application Form must be filed with Student Services Central. Before students can be cleared for graduation, they must return all college property loaned to them and pay any monies or outstanding obligations owed to any office of the College. Those intending to graduate in May must file for graduation during February and March prior to May graduation. Students who complete their graduation requirements at the end of the fall semester are invited to participate in the commencement ceremony the following May. See the registration calendar for filing deadlines. August Graduates who meet certain criteria are able to participate in the May Graduation Ceremony provided you: • Self Identify at time of applying in February or March • Are in good Academic Standing (2.00 CGPA or higher) • Have no more than 6 credits remaining; or 2 courses that do not exceed 8 credits to graduate in August Waiver or Substitution of Graduation Requirement Students who seek a waiver or substitution of a graduation course requirement should first discuss that request with the program department chairperson. Approval from the course department chairperson (if different from the program department chairperson) would also need to be obtained. Final approval is determined by the appropriate associate vice president. Waiver of Physical Education For Health Reasons Students seeking a waiver of physical education as a graduation requirement because of a physical limitation must follow this procedure: • Obtain a Physical Education Waiver Request form from the office of the appropriate associate vice president. • Give the Physical Education Waiver Request form to their physician (They must read it before sending a letter requesting a physical education waiver). • Have your physician write a letter using his or her letterhead and following the instructions on the Physical Education Waiver Request form. • Return the physician's letter to the office of the appropriate associate vice president. Note: Even though a physical education activity waiver is granted, students will still be required to take the one credit Concepts of Physical Wellness course, which is a lecture course and not an activity course if required for their program of study. This applies to all students, regardless of when they were admitted to the College. Students with long-term disabilities should make application for physical education waivers during their first semester at the College. Residence In order to qualify for an associate degree, at least 30 credit hours must be earned while attending SUNY Orange. Beginning with the Fall 2009 semester, if the student is enrolled in a Newburgh branch campus program, at least half of the credits earned at the College must have been taken at the Newburgh campus. ■ Transfer Credits and the Transfer Application Process Transfer Credit From Other Colleges In general, no more than 30 semester hours of credit are acceptable for students transferring to SUNY Orange from another college or university. Only courses in which the student has received a grade of at least “C” will be considered. Credit will be evaluated for course work completed more than 10 years ago on an individual basis. Only those credits which apply to the student's area of academic interest will be considered. Awarding of transfer credit is done in writing. Upon receipt of the written evaluation, the student may schedule an appointment with the Registrar if he/she has questions or wishes to appeal the evaluation. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Transfer Credits / Transfer Application Process If the student is not satisfied with the Registrar's decision, they may appeal to the appropriate Department Chair within 10 business days after the Registrar's appeal decision is made. If the student wishes to appeal a Department Chair's decision, they may do so to the appropriate Associate Academic Vice President within 10 business days of being informed of the chair's appeal decision. The decision of the appropriate Academic Associate Vice President is final. In addition to the above, SUNY has established policies to guarantee the transfer of credits for general education courses and courses taken in the first two years in the most frequently transferred majors. These policies guarantee that general education credits and credits in the primary courses in the most popular disciplines transfer throughout the system. If a student does not agree with a SUNY College's decision on the granting or placement of credit earned at a prior SUNY institution, they have the right to submit an appeal to SUNY Orange's transfer campus representative which is the Vice President of Academic Affairs or their designee. The student should be prepared to provide reasonable material to support their case, such as the course description or syllabus in question. The campus transfer representative will explain the process and let the student know exactly what materials are needed. Once all of the required information is received, the expectation is that the transfer appeal representative will provide the student with a written response within 15 business days. If the decision finds merit to change the course to meet a major requirement, the representative will notify the student, the chairperson and/or program coordinator, and will see that the change is made to the student's record. If the decision is unchanged, or the student has not received a response within 15 business days, the student may take their appeal to the SUNY System Provost by submitting the Student Transfer Appeal Form along with requested materials. The SUNY Provost will respond to the student's appeal within five business days from receipt of the completed appeal application. If the decision finds merit to change the course to meet a major requirement, the receiving institution will be notified to take appropriate action. Remember, this additional appeal process is only available when a student challenges SUNY Orange's decision not to accept credit earned at another SUNY institution. Note: If you receive a waiver of your placement testing based on work completed at other schools, this does NOT guarantee that you will receive transfer credit. Courses and credits, but not grades, are accepted. A student’s CumGPA at SUNY Orange is calculated based upon course work at SUNY Orange only. Transfer credits from other institutions do not affect the CumGPA. If a student has a passing grade in a course at SUNY Orange, an equivalent course will not be accepted from another institution. If a course is failed at SUNY Orange, an equivalent transferred course may be accepted, but the failing grade will still appear on the student’s transcript and will be calculated in the student’s CumGPA. No grades are ever eliminated from a student transcript. Active duty military personnel may receive up to 45 credits and veterans up to 30 credits for courses and military occupational specialties if those courses or specialties are directly applicable to an area of academic interest at SUNY Orange. Students who have completed basic training in the U.S. armed forces may receive credit for both PES 100 and the one credit of physical activity requirement if required for their program of study. Credit by SUNY Orange Examination Students’ life experiences may qualify them to take examinations and earn college credit in certain course offerings. To pursue this option, students are encouraged to check with appropriate department chairpersons. SUNY Orange may also award transfer credit for certain Excelsior College exams (formerly Regents College), certain AP (Advanced Placement) and CLEP (College Level Experience Program) exams, and certain non-collegesponsored training programs, as evaluated by the American Council on Education. Transcript Requests Official Transcripts contain a record of all courses, grades and degrees received at SUNY Orange. Transcripts are sent to other parties such as colleges, prospective employers, or government agencies at the request of the student and payment of the required fee. NOTE: Transcripts will not be released if there is a hold on the student account. Online Transcript Ordering: SUNY Orange has partnered with Credentials Solutions to provide transcript ordering, printing, and delivery services for students and alumni quickly and conveniently online. Please visit www.sunyorange.edu/registrar/transcripts for additional information and to order your transcripts. Upon written request and following payment of appropriate fees, students may have transcripts sent to other parties such as colleges, prospective employers or government agencies. Transcripts are mailed within a week of the request, in order of receipt. Transcripts should be requested well in advance of the required receipt date. Requests must be signed by the student, authorizing release of transcripts, and include the transcript fee of $10 per copy. Please be advised that institutions and agencies requesting transcripts will not consider them official unless mailed directly from SUNY Orange or hand-delivered in a sealed envelope marked “unofficial if seal is broken.” Only the student (with appropriate photo identification) may pick up their transcript, unless they have given written permission to a designee, with a verified signature. The designee should also provide photo identification. www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Student Records Policy for Transcript Notations for Crimes of Violence For crimes of violence, including, but not limited to sexual violence, defined as crimes that meet the reporting requirements pursuant to the federal Clery Act, SUNY Orange shall make a notation on the transcript of any student found responsible after a conduct process that they were “suspended after a finding of responsibility for a code of conduct violation” or “expelled after a finding of responsibility for a code of conduct violation.” For the respondent who withdraws from the institution while such conduct charges are pending, and declines to complete the disciplinary process, SUNY Orange shall make a notation on the transcript that the student “withdrew with conduct charges pending.” Students may appeal seeking removal of the transcript notation for a suspension through written request to the Vice President for Student Services. The notation shall not be removed prior to one year after the conclusion of the suspension. Notations for expulsion may not be appealed and will not be removed. If a finding of responsibility is vacated for any reason, any such transcript notation will be removed. Transfer to Four-Year SUNY Colleges If students earn an Associate in Arts or an Associate in Science degree from a two-year institution, State University of New York guarantees a place for them as a full-time student at a senior college campus—but not necessarily the one of their first choice. The application deadline is March 1 for Fall semester transfer and Oct. 1 for Spring transfer. All other applications, excluding the guaranteed program, can be sent after this deadline. SUNY application forms are available at the Academic Advising Office. If students plan to transfer, they should take advantage of SUNY Orange transfer days and visitations by four-year college transfer representatives. ■ Student Records Certifications of Enrollment/Attendance or Certifications of Full-Time/Part-Time Status Enrollment Certification of Full-Time/Part Time status are available through the National Student Clearinghouse Self- Service Program.

Advanced Registration Certificates, Current Enrollment Certificates and Past Enrollment Certificates will be available for students to print. To certify enrollment, tuition and fees must be paid and all stop/ holds must be cleared from the student's records. Student Records/Confidentiality All student records are maintained and made available in accordance with the Federal Family Educational Rights and PrivacyAct(FERPA)of 1974.Withsomeexceptions,allstudent records are available for review upon request by that student, and the right to challenge the content is provided. The College may disclose directory information without the written consent of the student. Directory information includes name, semesters enrolled and the dates of those semesters, field of study, degrees, honors and awards conferred. Addresses are only released to governmental officials who wish to send congratulatory notices to our graduates and to third party institutions with whom the college has articulation agreements for our graduates such as Franklin University. Additional biographical information will also be released to military recruiters as allowed under the Solomon Act. Students can request that their personal directory information be suppressed by submitting formal written request to the Records and Registration Office. However, please be aware that once directory information issuppressed enrollment verifications for insurance companies, student loans, and prospective employers will not be given this information without the student’s written permission which could have delays that may impact the student. No non-directory information records are released to third persons except as provided in the Act. Further information is available from the Records and Registration Office or in the SUNY Orange Student Handbook. Notification of Student Rights under FERPA The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. They are: • The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the College receives a request for access. Students should submit to the Registrar or Vice President for Student Services written requests that identify the record(s) they wish to inspect. A 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. • The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes are inaccurate or misleading. Students may ask the College to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the College official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the College decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the College will notify the student of the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. • The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Student Rights and Responsibilities authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the College has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility. Upon request, the College will disclose education records without consent to officials of another school which a student seeks or intends to enroll (barring any indebtedness to this College). • The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the College to comply with FERPA requirements: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 600 Independence Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20202-4605. Directory Information Directory information is personally-identifiable student information which the U.S. Department of Education has concluded is permissible for institutions to release without a student's consent. Orange County Community College has identified the following as Directory Information: • Name • Current enrollment status (full-time or part-time) • Semesters enrolled • Field of study or Program • Degrees, honors, and awards/scholarships conferred • Prior institution attended • Heights and weights of our college athletes • Addresses (but only of our graduates and only to governmental officials who wish to send congratulatory notices or to four-year educational institutions with whom the college has specific articulation agreements that will allow these students to continue to attend SUNY Orange while working toward a four year degree (e.g., Franklin University). Note:Once an institution identifiesDirectoryInformation, the institution may release that informationwithout studentconsent, but is not required to do so. The best example of this is addresses, where we may release that information but as an institutional practice we only do so in the specific examples given. Studentsmayoptoutof publicdisclosureof eventhedirectory information above by requesting what is known as a "FERPA Block."ThestudentdoessobycompletingtheFERPADirectory Information Block Request Form available on our website at www.sunyorange.edu/academic_services/ferpa.shtml A student interested in obtaining a FERPA Directory InformationBlockshouldbe awarethatunlike otherinstitutions, we do not include address and phone number as directory information and that a substantial consequence of requesting a FERPA Block is, unless another exception under FERPA permits disclosure, an active FERPA Block will prevent SUNY Orange from disclosing that the student once attended and received a degree or is currently enrolled at the college pursuing a particular degree. StudentswhoafterhavingtheFERPADirectoryBlockplaced on their record wish to remove the block must complete the FERPA Directory Information Block Removal Form also available at the same website. Consent Forms for Release of Non-Directory Information A student’s signed written consent must specify the records to release/inspect, state the purpose of the disclosure and identify the person(s) to whom the disclosure should be made. A new consent form would be required each academic year or when access to additional educational records not covered in the previous consent form on file are being requested. If the consent form does not specify the actual educational records to be inspected or simply states something equivalent to “all educational records”, the only records that will be disclosed are those that appear on the most current academic transcript. According to FERPA regulations, an institution has up to 45 days after receipt of a valid consent form to arrange for the inspection/disclosure of the specified educational records. Personal inspections of the requested educational records in the majority of cases will be made with the Registrar, who also acts as the FERPA officer for the institution, and not necessarily with individual faculty members. In the case of a so-ordered subpoena, issued by a judge, consent from the student is not required for disclosure of non- directory information. However, unless the subpoena specifically states that contact with the student is forbidden, the institution will not respond to said subpoena for 72 business hours and in that timeframe will attempt to contact the student to inform them that a subpoena was received, who issued the subpoena, and what records will be disclosed. Parents’ Rights Message to Parents: SUNY Orange is guided by the principle that students’ active involvement in their education enhances their learning and development. In keeping with this principle, SUNY Orange considers its primary relationship to be with its students. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act has provided two ways in which parents/guardians of dependent students may inspect the educational records of the student. The first is to obtain a signed written consent from the student and submit consent to the Registrar. If the student is unwilling to provide a signed written consent, the final alternative is for the parents/guardians to provide the Registrar with a copy of the preceding year’s tax returns to demonstrate the student is a tax dependent. The copy provided must have either been completed by a third party (accountant, tax preparer, etc.) or be an official full complete copy (not the www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Academic Grievance Procedure shortened version) from the Internal Revenue Service. Information on how to obtain this version can be found by contacting the IRS Office at (800) 829-1040. When the documentation is submitted, the parents/guardians must also specify the records to be inspected. If the request simply states something equivalent to “all educational records,” the only educational records that will be disclosed are those that appear on the most current academic transcript. ■ Student Rights and Responsibilities Conduct Expected of Students See the Code of Student Conduct published in the Student Handbook. The College reserves the right to dismiss any student who conducts himself or herself in a manner incompatible with the purposes of the College. Academic Separation, Probation and Appeals Please see Grades and Grading. ■ Academic Grievance Procedure Purpose of the Procedures: The purpose of the Student Academic Grievance Procedure is to encourage the informal resolution of academic issues that might surface between students and faculty in a manner that is timely and upholds standards of academic integrity. In the event that students and faculty are unable to resolve an academic issue, the formal stage provides additional fair and equitable procedures for students. Students should understand that each stage of the process is an important one; therefore, it is not possible to move through the process unless previous stages have been followed. The procedure must be utilized by all students regardless of the location at which the grievance has arisen or the mode of delivery for the course. Procedures: A student having a concern of an academic nature with a faculty member arising from participation in a credit class should follow the procedure outlined below. Such concerns could include the belief that his/her grade(s) is not consistent with the grade criteria designated by the course instructor/syllabus. Should the grievance reach the formal stage the student has the right to seek the assistance of an unbiased third party, which includes the student’s academic advisor or an individual from a pool of trained volunteers. The role of this third party is to help the student prepare for and navigate the formal process. It is not the role of this third party to represent the student during this process. Informal Stage: a. The student must first discuss the matter with the course instructor. This discussion should commence as soon as possible but (1) no later than 30 calendar days after the start of the following spring semester if the concern arose during the fall semester or (2) no later than 30 calendar days after the start of the following fall semester if the concern arose during the spring semester or summer session. Faculty must document the date of meeting with the student. b. If the student and the instructor cannot resolve the matter in this discussion, the student will have five business days after meeting with the instructor to contact the appropriate Department Chair to discuss the matter informally with him/her. The Chair must consult with the instructor and may include the instructor in the mediation. The student and the instructor should provide copies of all relevant material. The chair will make a decision within five business days and communicate the rationale for the decision to the instructor and the student. c. The student will have five business days from the date of the Chair’s decision to contact the appropriate Associate Vice President to discuss the matter informally with him/her. If the academic grievance requires the issuance of a grade change, at the objection of the instructor, the student must enter the formal stage of the grievance process. Formal Stage: a. If the matter has not been resolved informally, the student willhavefivebusinessdaysafterdiscussionin 1(c)tofileaformal, written Academic Grievance Notice with the appropriate Associate Vice President. The Academic Grievance Notice form will be available through academic departments and should include a clear statement of the student’s specific complaint, a clear statement of how the student would like to see the matter resolved, and relevant documentation that supports the student’s claim(s). b. The Associate Vice President will inform the course instructor and the Department Chair of the formal grievance and will have ten business days to meet with all parties involved, make a thorough evaluation, and notify the student, course instructor, and Department Chair in writing of his/her findings, decision, and the rationale for his/her decision. Appeal: a. If the student is not satisfied with the decision of the AssociateVicePresident,he/shewillhavefivebusiness daystofile a formal, written appeal with the Vice President for Academic Affairs.

ThePresident will issue a formal decision to all parties, in writing, within ten business days. The President’s decision is final. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Non-Discrimination and Sexual Violence Prevention NOTE: The authority to assign grades rests with the faculty member who is instructor of record; however, under extraordinary circumstances, if the academic grievance requires the issuance of a grade change, at the objection of the instructor, only the Associate Vice President, Vice President for Academic Affairs, or the President may authorize such in the formal or appeal stages. Students are required to utilize the informal stage to attempt to resolve all academic grievances, including those pertaining to grades. Record Keeping A permanent file containing appropriate documentation relating to the grievance shall be kept in the office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs for six years. ■ Non-Discrimination and Sexual Violence Prevention SUNY Orange is committed to ensuring equal employment, educational opportunity and equal access to services, programs and activities without regard to an individual’s race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, gender, pregnancy, gender identity, sexual orientation, predisposing genetic characteristics, marital status, veteran status, military status, domestic violence victim status or ex-offender status.

Assignment of E-mail Address SUNY Orange assigns an e-mail address (@sunyorange.edu) to each registered student. This College-issued e-mail account is designated as the student’s official e-mail address when administrative and academic departments need to communicate with students. College Responsibility The College is responsible for communicating with students in a timely and accurate way about changes in policies, procedures and deadlines that affect them. The College will select the most appropriate method (mail, telephone, e-mail) to convey pertinent information to specific groups of students. In some cases, e-mail may be used exclusively. Routine announcements, administrative and academic dates and deadlines, and information of a general nature will typically only be sent by e-mail. Student Responsibility Students are responsible for receiving, reading, responding to and complying with official e-mail communications sent by the College. Because information may be time-sensitive, students are encouraged to check their e-mail regularly (daily, several times weekly) throughout the semester. Students who opt to redirect their @sunyorange.edu email account to another personal e-mail account do so at their own risk. The College is not responsible for e-mail that is not delivered to a forwarded address or for spam filters that may block e-mail messages. The student’s failure to receive or read e-mail communications does not constitute an excuse for missing College communications or College deadlines. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu This page intentionally left blank www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Academic Support & Developmental Education ■ Academic Support Center A variety of academic support is available to students enrolled in credit courses at SUNY Orange.

All newly admitted students are required to take the Placement Test in reading, writing and mathematics. Performance on this computerized assessment determines the student’s proficiency in these areas and allows SUNY Orange to place students in classes that correspond with the student’s demonstrated skill level. A student may be required to take developmental courses based on their placement results. In some instances, developmental courses are prerequisites or co-requisites to college-level courses. In all cases, students must complete their required developmental courses. SUNY Orange offers a variety of developmental courses for students who need to strengthen their basic skills. Students must follow specific academic policies related to these courses. The reading, writing and math placement tests may be re-taken, only prior to attendance in classes, with the approval of the appropriate department chairperson, (i.e., chairperson of the English Department for reading and writing, chairperson of the Mathematics Department for math). For a request to be considered, a student must submit a Placement Retest Request form. The following developmental courses (and their corresponding replacements) are offered at the College: Course Replacement WRT 020 English as a Second WRT 020 Language (ESL) Writing WRT 030 Basic Writing Skills 1 WRT 030 RDG 060 and RDG 061 ESL RDG 060 Reading with Support Module RDG 070 Reading and Study Skills 1 RDG 070 ENG 098 Co-Requisite Support WRT 040 only Module taken together with ENG 101 RDG 080 only Both WRT 040 and RDG 080 MAT 010 Fundementals of MAT 010 Arithmetic MAT 020 Fundementals of Algebra MAT 020 MAT 030 Fundementals of MAT 030 Mathmatical Reasoning Students placed in developmental writing and/or reading courses must be enrolled in these courses during every semester of attendance until they receive a grade of DVP in these courses. Students who do not pass a developmental course will be allowed to repeat that course only twice for a total of three attempts. Students who do not receive a DVP in the course by the third attempt will be separated from the college for one year. Please see the Academic Policy manual for further 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Academic Support & Developmental Education details. Students placed in developmental math courses must complete these courses, even though there may not be a specific math requirement in their curriculum. If students have not successfully completed the appropriate developmental math course sequence (see * below) by the time they have attempted 24 non-developmental credits, they must enroll in these courses every semester until they receive a grade of DVP. * Successful completion of developmental math includes either completion of the MAT 010/020 sequence, or the MAT 010/030 sequence (if applicable). See your advisor for details. Grades of DVP must be received in all developmental courses into which students have been placed prior to applying for graduation. Units earned from developmental courses are institutional in nature; they are not applicable to the 60 or more semester hours of credit required for an Associate in Arts, Associate in Science, Associate in Applied Science or any of the certificate programs. Students who are enrolled in developmental courses may receive financial aid if they meet income eligibility requirements and have gone through the College’s regular admission process. Financial aid will pay for required course work towards a student’s degree or certificate. Developmental courses are considered required course work. www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Permitted Credit Courses for Students Placed in One or More Developmental Courses Students registered in English

MiddletownCampus NewburghCampus BATCAVERN BATCAVERN II RCSE Room 306 Kaplan Hall Room 230 341-4156 341-9504 Mathematics Tutorial Labs The Mathematics Department has two Math Tutorial Labs which are open to any student enrolled in a mathematics course through SUNY Orange. The Math Tutorial Labs are staffed by professional and peer tutors who are more than happy to help students in need. Members of the Mathematics Department full-time faculty also make themselves available at times. Math lab tutors can help clarify topics and concepts that students may be struggling with, and help students prepare for quizzes and exams. The Math Tutorial Room hours are posted at the labs each semester and are also available at the Mathematics Department webpage. Math Tutorial Labs are located on the Middletown Campus in Harriman Hall Room 309, and on the Newburgh Campus in Kaplan Hall Room 229. No appointment is necessary. 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Learning Resources Education Curriculum Resource Area The Education Curriculum Resource Area is located on the second floor of the Library. It houses children’s fiction and non-fiction titles, including many Caldecott and Newbery award winners, professional periodicals, teacher resource books, textbooks, and other print resources for student use. English Department Writing Centers The English Department Writing Centers serve all students who need to work on writing skills. Students may sign up for writing practice or be referred by their instructors. Some courses also require mandatory weekly hours in the Writing Center. The center operates on the philosophy that students learn to write by writing. Skills instruction is done in the context of the student’s own work, generated in the center. Using instructor-created materials, students work individually with English Department instructors and tutors. Computers accommodate various learning styles. Day and evening Writing Center hours are posted each semester. Writing Centers are located in Middletown (Bio-Tech 360) and Newburgh (Kaplan Hall, Room 225). The Writing Consultancy Project SUNY Orange’s Writing Consultancy Project’s goal is to help students master their occupational, professional and academic writing and to promote writing across the academic disciplines. Sponsored by the English Department, the project provides writing consultants to specific academic departments and career programs. The consultant works with both the instructor and the students in applying and transferring key writing skills learned in Freshman English I to their content-specific and/or professional writing situations. These consultants may directly teach or review with students through technical writing modules, special workshops, individualized conferences and instructor referrals. Students are given access to a computer-equipped classroom/lab facility (Writing Consultancy Resource Center and Technical Writing Lab, Bio-Tech 260) where much of the individualized instruction takes place. This facility is the site for required course-related work and for drop-in use by students whose instructors have requested assistance from the Writing Consultancy. Currently, students enrolled in Technical Writing Modules in Human Services earn academic credit for these modules. The Writing Consultancy also offers instructional service to other programs and departments such as nursing, biology, criminal justice, accounting, dental hygiene, history, and anatomy and physiology. The Consultancy Project was selected as a College Occupational Education Program in New York State. It is also featured in the Jossey-Bass publication, “Writing Across the Curriculum in Two Year Vocational/Career Programs: New Directions for Community Colleges.” English as a Second Language For incoming students whose first language is not English and who demonstrate the need to improve their English, the College offers these courses: WRT 020, English as a Second Language; RDG 060, ESL Reading. RDG 060 requires attendance in RDG 061, a once-aweek support module. Through the formal placement process, students may be required to take WRT 020 and/or RDG 060 before attempting later college-level study, but students may also take the course as an elective. Working closely with the English Department, students are immersed in reading writing, speaking and listening activities. www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Academic Programs Registered Programs The programs offered are registered by the State Education Department and State University of New York.

While other opportunities exist, the largest job opportunities are positions as interns / CAD operators for architectural firms. Graduates’ skills will prepare them to produce working drawings in a variety of settings, such as engineering firms or manufacturers. If graduates have field experience in a building trade, all program outcomes are directly transferable to entry-level positions in construction management and supervision. A broad cross-section of course content is covered in the program; this familiarizes students with many aspects of the architectural profession, the work of building professionals and the construction process. When working under the supervision of a licensed professional (i.e. Registered Architect, Professional Engineer, etc.), a graduate’s primary responsibilities would include measuring and documenting existing conditions of buildings and sites, preparing construction documents, interpreting construction documents, preparing design presentations for clients or other audiences, and coordinating architectural drawings with consultants’ drawings. Fluency with computer-aided drawing (AutoCAD) and computer literacy, as it applies to generating architectural drawings, are fundamental skills graduates will possess. Meanwhile, freehand sketching is stressed wherever possible as a valuable communication method. Beyond preparing construction drawings, students will build models, prepare reports and orally present their work to groups. Most courses in the program are a combination of lecture and lab. In the lecture component, foundational material is presented, often accompanied by samples, examples or other visual cues. In the lab component, students will either work on short-term exercises designed to hone very specific knowledge bases or skills or they will work on long-term projects designed to simulate the types of projects that they will eventually encounter in the workforce. Students should be prepared to spend a significant amount of time on projects outside the classroom. Many students who enter this degree program plan to transfer to an upper division institution. Because these opportunities exist, second year students who intend to transfer should select their courses in careful consultation with their academic advisor. Portfolio production will be required. For those students wishing to become Registered Architects, New York State Department of Education guidelines must be followed. To become a Registered Architect, one must earn an NAAB-accredited Bachelor of Architecture or Master of Architecture degree, fulfill NCARB internship requirements (a proscribed three year apprenticeship), and pass a challenging and comprehensive licensing examination. www.sunyorange.edu 2020-2021 Architectural Technology Degree Awarded: Associate in Applied Science For those students wishing to pursue baccalaureate degrees in Landscape Architecture and Construction Management, an A.S. degree from SUNY Orange with electives from the Architectural Technology degree program may be most suitable. Course selection should be made carefully in consultation with academic advisors. Admission Criteria Admission to this program requires that students be high school graduates or have high school equivalency diplomas (HSEs). If students are not high school graduates, they may be eligible for admission to the College’s 24 Credit Hour Program. If students are home schooled, they may be eligible for admission. (See pages 7 through 13 for more details on the admission process for all applicants.) Maintenance of a C average or better in courses in the major is also required. Program Learning Outcomes Students will: • Graphically communicate architectural forms and building assemblies, both two and three dimensionally • Demonstrate fluency using digital graphics software packages to produce construction drawings and other architectural representations • Solve architectural problems through the development of an aesthetic approach and the manipulation of form and space • Demonstrate an understanding of building materials and methods • Demonstrate an understanding of the coordination within a building project between architecture and related professions • Demonstrate an understanding of basic life safety and regulatory requirements in building projects • Demonstrate an understanding of fundamental structural principles • Utilize research from web based and other sources in architectural projects • Identify basic methods of sustainable building practices and their environmental impacts • Demonstrate an understanding of the historical and social context of western architecture Career Opportunities • architectural firms • engineering firms • manufacturing firms • construction firms • governmental agencies • utility companies Transfer Opportunities While the A.A.S. degree leads to immediate employment, SUNY Orange students have successfully transferred to: • Alfred State College • New York Institute of Technology • New Jersey Institute of Technology • Pratt Institute • SUNY Environmental Science and Forestry Contact Information Science,Engineering and Architecture Department Chair (845) 341-4571 Admissions Office (845) 341-4030 2020-2021 www.sunyorange.edu Business Administration Degree Awarded: Associate in Science Accredited by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) 7007 College Boulevard, Suite 420, Overland Park, KS, 66211 Recommended Course Sequence First Semester Credits ENG 101 Freshman English 1 3 MAT ___ Selected Math Courses* 3 OFT 106 Keyboarding*** 1 BUS 161 Computer Applications for Business 3 ACC 153 Financial Accounting 4 ________ Restricted SUNY Elective** 3 Second Semester ENG 102 Freshman English 2 3 MAT ___ Selected Math Courses* 3 ACC 154 Managerial Accounting 4 ECO 201 Macro-Economics 3 MKT 101 Principles of Marketing 3 Third Semester ECO 202 Micro-Economics 3 _______ SUNY Natural Science (GE 2) 3 BUS 205 Business Statistics 3 BUS 201 Business Law 1 3 MGT 201 Principles of Management 3 Fourth Semester ________ Restricted SUNY Elective**** 3 BUS 203 Business Communications 3 BUS 202 Business Law 2 3 BUS 207 International Business 3 MGT 205 Human Resource Management 3 Total Credits: 63 * Select one of the following pairs of courses: MAT 121 and MAT 122 (minimum requirement); or MAT 122 and MAT 205; or MAT 131 and MAT 205, or MAT 205 and MAT 206. **SUNY American History (GE 4), Western Civilization (GE 5) or Other/World Civilization (GE 6) or Arts (GE 8) or Foreign Language (GE 9)lists. ***Students with sufficient keyboarding ability who pass the keyboarding waiver exam will fulfill this requirement; they do not need to replace the 1 credit. ****Select from list not chosen in Second Semester Restricted SUNY Elective list above.

The A.S. degree in Criminal Justice is designed to facilitate the acquisition of the technological and critical thinking skills that are essential for success in the criminal justice field. Graduates of this program will have both a general educational background as well as the criminal justice insight needed to pursue careers within the justice system. This degree program is reviewed regularly to ensure that the course content reflects contemporary issues facing the criminal justice system (e.g. homeland security, terrorism, cyber security, technological advancements, diversity and ethics) and explores criminal justice topics such as the nature and extent of crime, public policy implications related to justice, racial and ethnic profiling, crime scene processing, law enforcement technology and terrorism. Moreover, there are courses devoted to the treatment of adult and juvenile offenders as well as an internship program where students are afforded the opportunity to utilize their newly acquired skills and knowledge in an actual criminal justice environment. The A.S. in Criminal Justice provides students with a solid foundation from which to continue their education as well as pursue a rewarding career. Admission Criteria Admission to these programs requires that students be high school graduates or have high school equivalency diplomas (HSEs). If students are not high school graduates they may be eligible for admission to the college’s 24 credit hour program. If students are home schooled, they may be eligible for admission.

Program Description The mission of the SUNY Orange Department of Criminal Justice is to provide qualitative educational programs in the areas of Law, Justice, Corrections and Law Enforcement. Through this programming, our students develop skills and knowledge that prepares them to continue their education and/or to pursue entry level careers in the field of criminal justice. The Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S) degree program in Criminal Justice–Police is aimed at students who do not anticipate continuing their studies at a four- year institution because they envision themselves entering the workforce directly upon graduating. As a result, the A.A.S. degree does not have the same math or science requirements as the A.S. degree, though many of the other required courses in the A.A.S. degree are identical to those required by the A.S. degree. The A.A.S. provides students with the college credits often required by many local, state and federal criminal justice agencies so it is intended to prepare students for entry level positions in law enforcement, security, law, probation, parole, juvenile justice and investigations. All instructors, in addition to their advanced educational backgrounds, are experienced practitioners in their fields. Admission Criteria Admission to these programs requires that students be high school graduates or have high school equivalency diplomas (HSEs). If students are not high school graduates they may be eligible for admission to the college’s 24 credit hour program. If students are home schooled, they may be eligible for admission.

Program Description The Liberal Arts: Humanities and Social Science Associate in Arts degree program is a transfer degree that provides a broad-based foundation for students to pursue a variety of academic interests. A liberal arts degree focused on humanities and social sciences includes study of humankind’s intellectual, historical and creative endeavors and the implications of how humans interact. The value of a strong grounding in the liberal arts is that students will be equipped with broad perspectives, tools to analyze challenging problems, and skills to seek and communicate solutions. This Associate in Arts degree program is similar to the first two years of many baccalaureate degree programs, in that it prepares students to think and write critically about a range of subject matter. The coursework is designed to flexibly balance exploration of ideas and subjects with transfer preparation. Students in this degree program will take specific required courses and also have the opportunity to choose from categories of courses and electives. The choice of several electives provides students freedom to customize and focus on a specific discipline, area of interest, or pursuit of specific coursework that is recommended by transfer destinations. By fulfilling a minimum of 30 General Education credits and a minimum of seven of SUNY’s general education categories, students are prepared for smooth transfer within the SUNY system and beyond. The General Education categories of the State University of New York (SUNY) are math, natural sciences, social sciences, American history, western civilization, world civilizations, humanities, the arts, foreign language and communication. An Associate in Arts degree is an excellent choice for students who plan to transfer but may not have all the next steps clearly mapped out. Liberal Arts degrees position students to pursue careers in the social sciences, arts, humanities, communication, education, advocacy, policy and law and many other avenues. Students should consult regularly with their advisors to determine the best course of study for their particular area of interest and to update their academic plans. Admission Criteria Admission to this program requires that students be high school graduates or have high school equivalency diplomas (HSEs). If students are not high school graduates, they may be eligible for admission to the College’s 24 Credit Hour Program. If students are home schooled, they may be eligible for admission.

Its purpose is to allow students to shape a program to meet their individual needs. The program is divided into three components: core requirements, concentration area and electives. Core requirements are intended to provide students with a firm general education foundation through exposure to the three traditional areas of liberal arts study–humanities, social science and sciences–and development of communication and computational skills. The concentration area is comprised of course work reflecting the individual’s educational objectives. The elective component provides the student with the flexibility to build upon the special area of study. Admission Criteria Prior to the sophomore year (30 credits), the student is required to submit an Individual Studies Program Plan. This form, available in the Advising and Counseling Center, requires a 250 word statement of the student’s educational, transfer and career objectives. Based on these objectives, the student and advisor will select the courses to fulfill the concentration and elective component of the degree. The Program Plan will then be submitted to the appropriate Associate Vice President in Academic Affairs. On approval of the plan, a faculty advisor whose academic background is appropriate to the student’s area of concentration will be assigned to assist in the next phase of study.

This process includes providing a history of possible existing criminal convictions and/or professional misconduct. Criteria for determination of good moral character varies from state to state, therefore, completion of the program does not guarantee acceptance by that state’s regulatory entity to become certified or licensed. Program Description The Associate in Applied Science degree program in Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) is designed to provide students with both the academic knowledge and clinical skills to become certified/licensed PTAs. The field of Physical Therapy is demanding. Graduates are required to meet all program requirements which are guided by the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education. Many states, including New York, also require that students pass the national licensing examination as part of the certification/licensure process. The PTA works with, and under the direction and supervision of the physical therapist who plans the patient care program; the PTA then helps to carry out this program. Duties of the PTA include monitoring of vital signs, lifting of patients and equipment, training of patients in therapeutic exercises and activities of daily living, wound care, use of whirlpool and electrical stimulation during treatment procedures, application of heat and cold modalities, patient and family education, wheelchair activities, use of walkers and crutches, assisting the physical therapist in performing patient assessments and complex treatment procedures. The PTA also monitors the patient’s responses to treatment, documents relevant aspects of patient care and maintains ongoing communication with the patient, family, supervising physical therapist and other health care professionals. The primary focus of the curriculum is to develop a strong clinician who possesses critical thinking and problem-solving skills. To accomplish this, the program provides the clinical training as well as a broad general education background. Courses include both core classes and non-core classes (general education courses). The core Physical Therapist Assistant courses are offered once each year beginning in the fall semester. All program requirements must be completed within six consecutive semesters from the time of enrollment in the first PTA course. These courses must be taken in the sequence in which they are offered. The curriculum includes classroom instruction, laboratory time and clinical experiences. However, general education courses may be taken on a part-time basis during the day or evening, and may be completed over a longer period of time than the four semesters. But they must be completed no later than the semester in which they fall into sequence with the core courses. A minimum grade of C is required in all PTA courses and a minimum grade of C is required in each of the following courses: Anatomy and Physiology 1, Anatomy and Physiology 2, and Basic Exercise Physiology. www.sunyorange.edu 2016-2017 Physical Therapist Assistant Degree Awarded: Associate in Applied Science Admission Criteria Academic Requirements: • High school diploma or high school equivalency (HSE) diploma • Eligible to take Freshman English I (ENG 101) • Eligible to take Intermediate Algebra (MAT 102) or equivalent with a 2.0 or higher or have completed Elementary Algebra (MAT 101) • Completed High School AP Biology (score of 3, 4, or 5) or a passing grade in the Biology CLEP examination; or Introduction to Biology or Anatomy & Physiology 1 with a grade of 2.0 or better (within 5 years of program entry) • Minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 Department-Specific Requirements: • Submit Physical Therapy practitioner observation form with essay (48 hour min. with documentation). • View the Pre-Admission Orientation Power Point located on the program website and complete the survey.

In addition, students may take courses which are "web-enhanced," "hybrid," or fully “online.” Students may access these courses from home, on campus, or wherever they can obtain internet access. Web-enhanced Students should expect to be exposed to academic technologies as part of their educational experience at SUNY Orange. Many courses make use of Internet technology to support the distribution of course materials and student access to additional resources. This can include graded assignments that require participation in an online activity or activities in addition to the required meeting time on campus. Students should consult with their faculty if they have questions about any of the assignments within their courses or need assistance with an assignment that requires the use of technology. Hybrid Hybrid courses make use of educational technology to deliver instructional content and reduce the amount of time a student is required to be physically present in the classroom. The hybrid instructor may deliver one-third to three-quarters of the instructional content of the course in an online format. On-campus presence of a student enrolled in a hybrid course is still required, though reduced. Online A full online course is one that can be accessed anywhere and anytime, via the internet, with a web browser. It supports all the other services mentioned previously, as well as builds a learning community with the course taking place completely on-line, including live chats, bulletin board discussions and advising. To participate in online learning, students must have internet access (a broadband connection is recommended) and use a current software browser (Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari or Chrome). In addition, pop-up blockers must be disabled and cookies and javascript must be enabled. Adobe Acrobat Reader (a free download) is also recommended. Students must use their SUNY Orange email accounts. It is stongly recommended that students use a desktop or laptop computer for viewing or completing assignments in online coursework as the course experience can be significantly different when viewed on a cell phone, a mobile app, or a tablet.
