DEGREE AUDIT
STUDENT ID CARDS
You may view your degree progress in your Whitecaps Portal. A degree audit is a computerized evaluation report that compares completed, in progress, and transfer coursework against program requirements. An audit report is generated that reflects coursework compared to requirements of a declared major at Galveston College. The audit is unofficial and should be used only as a tool to assist with planning future coursework. Students are strongly encouraged to work closely with a Counselor, Faculty Advisor, or Program Coordinator when interpreting the report. New and continuing students can view their degree progress by following these instructions:
All Galveston College students are required to possess and display a valid Galveston College Student Identification card. A Galveston College student ID card is required for college services such as the Library, Gym, the Student Success Center, and in the Testing Center. Students must be registered and provide proof of tuition settlement before receiving a student ID. Students having a Galveston College ID card will be given a current semester sticker upon registration verification. Students may obtain their ID card at the IT Service Desk in room R-120. Please note: the picture you take for your ID will be the picture that faculty and staff see when they access your account.
1. Log into your WHITECAPS PORTAL 2. Under Self Services, Select "WebAdvisor for Students" 3. Select "Academic Planning" 4. Select "Degree Audit" Follow the instructions on the screen.
ACADEMIC FRESH START Academic Fresh Start entitles residents of Texas to seek admission to public institutions of higher education as undergraduate students without consideration of courses undertaken 10 or more years prior to enrollment. An applicant for admission who is a Texas resident may enter Galveston College pursuant to the “academic fresh start” status, Texas Education Code, §51.931. Applicants can request a Petition for Academic Fresh Start from the Office of Admissions. a) Fresh Start must be declared upon entrance to the College. Students who do not declare upon entrance will not be considered after they have enrolled. b) An applicant who elects to apply under this statute may not receive any course credits or grades earned for courses taken 10 or more years prior to enrollment. Notes: Academic Fresh Start does not apply to Financial Aid or VA benefits guidelines and/or regulations. Should the student seek admission under this option, then no college courses or credits 10 years or older will be evaluated. (A student's TSI exemption, based on work completed prior to the fall of 1989, is retained even if a student elects to take advantage of the Academic Fresh Start program.) This option does not relieve students from notifying the college of attendance at previous institutions, nor of the need to submit transcripts indicating all previous course work attempted.
SPECIAL SERVICES Registration assistance and academic support are available for students with disabilities and for special populations. For further information and to register for services, students should contact the Counseling Center in Moody Hall at (409) 944-1220. REAL LIFE. REAL EXPERIENCES. REAL SUCCESS.

Financial Aid & Scholarships FINANCIAL AID
Financial aid must be determined by one of the following methods. 1. Apply for Financial Aid by completing the 2021-2022 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the Fall 2021 semester and the 2020-2021 FAFSA for Summer 2021 at www.studentaid.gov. 2. If a student has NOT received a Financial Aid Award Notification Letter for the appropriate academic year from the Galveston College Financial Aid Office, the student must cover any balance that is owed and should contact the Business Office for payment options. 3. If a student has applied for financial aid and/or scholarships and has NOT received notification, the student may contact the Financial Aid Office to determine the status of their application. If a student’s file is incomplete, the student will need to make payment arrangements at the time of registration from their own resources or set-up a FACTS payment plan with the Business Office. If financial aid is awarded during the semester, students will be reimbursed, if eligible. 4. If a student has not applied for financial aid, tuition and fees must be paid from the student's own resources. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) can be completed online at www. student aid.gov. Federal regulations mandate that financial aid eligibility must be recalculated for students who withdraw during the semester and who receive AWNs for non-attendance. A portion of financial aid used for tuition, fees, books, and cash disbursements MAY HAVE TO BE REPAID by those students. Students who fail to make the proper arrangements for repayment will be reported to the federal data system. This will prevent students from receiving aid from any school they attend in the future.

TUITION RESIDENCY CLASSIFICATIONS 1. A student is considered a Texas Resident - In-District resident if he/she has resided in the college taxing district for at least 12 months prior to the student's first registration at Galveston College for other than educational purposes. 2. A student is considered a Texas Resident - Out-Of-District resident if he/she has resided in the State of Texas for at least 12 months prior to the student's first registration at Galveston College for other than educational purposes and is not a resident of the college’s taxing district. 3. A student is considered an Out-Of-State / Non-Resident student if he/she has NOT resided in the State of Texas for at least 12 months prior to the student's first registration at Galveston College for other than educational purposes. The Board of Regents of Galveston College has authorized the waiver of the difference in the rate of tuition for nonresident and resident students for a person, or his or her dependents, who owns property, which is subject to ad valorem taxation by the Galveston College District. The person, or his or her dependents, applying for such a waiver shall verify property ownership by presentation of an ad valorem tax statement or receipt, issued by the tax office of the Galveston College District, or by presentation of a deed, property closing statement, or other appropriate evidence of ownership of property which is subject to ad valorem taxation by the Galveston College District. The responsibility of enrolling in courses under the proper residence classification is that of the student. If there is any question regarding the student's correct residency classification, it is the responsibility of the student to discuss this matter with the Registrar/Director of Admissions. Changes to tuition residency classification Must Be Submitted Prior to or at the time of Registration.
Concurrent Institutional Enrollment Tuition Adjustment When a student registers at more than one public institution of higher education at the same time (i.e., enrolled at Texas A&M at Galveston and Galveston College or UTMB and Galveston College), the student may be eligible for a reduction in tuition. This adjustment will be in accordance with Section 54.0602 of the Education Code which establishes, in essence, that once a student has enrolled at one public institution, and paid the required minimum tuition, he/she will be charged tuition at the credit rate only when enrolling at a second public institution, and will not have to pay the minimum tuition charge a second time. If a student is enrolled in four or more hours at Galveston College they are not subject to the minimum tuition requirement or the waiver. In order to qualify, the student must bring a copy of their receipt for payment of tuition from the institution in which enrollment was first made by the 12th class day (for fall and spring semesters) or at time of payment at Galveston College.
Texas Tuition Waiver The student must bring the required third-party billing voucher issued by the sponsor to the Business Office by the census date for the term (varies by term). Voucher with missing, incorrect information, or received after the census date of the term will not be accepted.
Returned Checks All returned checks will be assessed a $35 handling fee. Upon receiving a returned check, the Business Office will place a "hold" on the student's record. A certified letter will be sent to the individual whose check is returned. This letter will set a final date for settlement of this returned check. After this date, the returned check will be sent to the District Attorney's office for legal action.
Stop Payment Fee Checks that are reissued as a result of being lost due to mishandling, mutilation, or incorrect address will result in a $10 stop pay reissuance fee. REAL LIFE. REAL EXPERIENCES. REAL SUCCESS.

Student Information Student Records
Galveston College has established policies and procedures to comply with the “Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974” and the “Texas Open Records Law” (State Senate Bill 1071 and House Bill 6). Generally, schools must have written permission from the eligible student in order to release any information from a student’s education record. However, FERPA allows schools to disclose those records, without consent, to the following parties or under the following conditions (34 CFR § 99.31): • • • • • • • • •
School officials with legitimate educational interest*; Other schools to which a student is transferring; Specified officials for audit or evaluation purposes; Appropriate parties in connection with financial aid to a student; Organizations conducting studies on certain students for or on behalf of the school; Accrediting organizations; To comply with a judicial order or lawfully issued subpoena; Appropriate officials in cases of health and safety emergencies; and, State and local authorities, within a juvenile justice system, pursuant to specific state law.
* A school official may include a volunteer or contractor outside of Galveston College who performs an institutional service of function for which the school would otherwise use its own employees and who is under the direct control of the school with respect to the use and maintenance of PII from education records, such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent or a student volunteering to assist another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official typically has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibilities for Galveston College. Galveston College also considers personnel instructing/supervising students at clinical, internship, and other practicum sites as school officials.
Student Rights Under FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords eligible students certain rights with respect to their education records. (An “eligible student” under FERPA is a student who is 18 years of age or older or who attends a postsecondary institution at any age.) These rights include: 1. The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 45 days after the day Galveston College receives a request for access. A student should submit to the Director of Admissions/Registrar a written request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect. The school 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 school official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed. 2. The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes is inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student’s privacy rights under FERPA. A student who wishes to ask Galveston College to amend a record should write Director of Admissions/Registrar, clearly identify the part of the record the student wants changed, and specify why it should be changed. If Galveston College decides not to amend the record as requested, the school will notify the student in writing of the decision and the student’s right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. 3. The right to provide written consent before Galveston College discloses personally identifiable information (PII) from the student's education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. Galveston College discloses education records without a student’s prior written consent under FERPA except for disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official includes a person employed by Galveston College in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research, or support staff position (including law REAL LIFE. REAL EXPERIENCES.

A school official typically has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibilities for Galveston College. Galveston College also considers personnel instructing/supervising students at clinical, internship, and other practicum sites as school officials.

Things to Know...
Whitecaps Student Email Account
All students at Galveston College are given their own free Whitecaps email account, which includes free access to Microsoft Office 365. College personnel (including your instructors) use your Whitecaps email address to provide you with important information such as, “Please come by my office so we can discuss your latest assignment.” Since these are the kinds of emails a student does not want to miss, you need to activate your Whitecaps account. Simply go to the Galveston College webpage at gc.edu and click on the link that says, “View my @whitecaps & Office 365 login information”. It’s that easy!
Computer Labs/Internet Access
Many, if not most, of your classes at Galveston College are “Web Enhanced” and require that you have access to the Internet for certain aspects of your course. Don’t worry if you do not have access to the Internet from your home, Galveston College has many computer labs that operate at convenient hours throughout the week.
Class Attendance
Students are expected to attend all lectures and laboratory periods, and an accurate record of each student’s class attendance is kept by each instructor for the duration of the course. Any student who has missed 10% of the total clock hours of instruction, not excused by the instructor, may be withdrawn from class by the instructor with a grade of “AWN”. Students are expected to report to class on time. At the discretion of the instructor, tardiness may be treated the same as an absence and the AWN policy may be applied.
Committed To Safety
Students who have experienced sexual assault, sexual violence, stalking, domestic violence, or other crimes may seek advice, assistance, and resources from the Vice President of Student Services, or the College’s Title IX Coordinator. The Title IX Coordinator’s duties include facilitating the complaint and investigation process. Individuals within these offices can assist the complainant with accessing medical or counseling services, advocacy services, social support services, legal services, and police services. Even in the absence of a formal complaint, the College may be able to provide assistance to the complainant with respect to his or her academic, living, transportation, or working situations. For example, a student might wish to explore changing a class or class time. For more information please visit the GC website: http://www.gc.edu/gc/ Staying_Safe_on_Campus.asp REAL LIFE.
