Careers The College’s Student Information System organizes its course offerings into sections, known as careers. When registering online or by telephone, students will be prompted to select the appropriate career for the type of offering that they wish to register for. The career used at Reynolds for all credit courses is the Credit (CRED) career. The continuing education (CEU), non-credit (CNED), and quarter credit careers are listed for historical purposes only and should not be used. Community College Workforce Alliance (CCWA) The Community College Workforce Alliance is a cooperative partnership between J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College and John Tyler Community College dedicated to supporting economic development and providing world-class workforce training and services to both the public and private sectors in the Richmond, Tricities, and surrounding counties. A variety of non-credit workforce development and lifelong learning courses are offered through the Alliance.

Concurrent Enrollment

High school and home-schooled juniors and seniors may be permitted to enroll in college-level courses prior to graduating from high school. The College must receive written permission from the student’s high school principal for each requested semester or term. All high school students are required to complete all portions of the COMPASS placement test and earn minimal required scores before enrolling in any classes at the College. Special permission may be requested through the Central Admissions and Records office for high school freshmen and sophomores that would like to enroll. Notes: High school students are not eligible to apply for financial aid. The parent of home-school students will be recognized as the principal. Registration for concurrent students must take place on campus at one of the Student Success Centers during the general registration period. Continuing Education Unit (CEU) Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are nationally recognized units of measurement for postsecondary-level studies that do not include academic credit. CEUs are designed for use where employers, licensure agencies, and other authorities require a specific number of hours of study for career-advancement purposes. Curricular Curricular students are students who have satisfied general college curricular and any additional program admission requirements and are enrolled in credit or developmental courses for the purpose of earning a degree, certificate, or career studies certificate. Developmental Courses Developmental courses are designed to provide the basic skills and knowledge necessary for success in college-level courses. Developmental courses are numbered 1-99 and do not carry collegelevel credit.

Students who are taking dual enrollment courses may receive both high school and college credit. High school students are not eligible to apply for financial aid.

Empl ID (Student ID) The Empl ID is a unique 7-character number assigned to each student that serves as a student identification number. Hybrid Courses Hybrid courses are credit courses that require both online and on-campus class meetings. In hybrid courses, half of the instruction will be in the classroom with the instructor and the other half will be completed online. Learning Communities Learning Communities are linked courses taught by a team of faculty members who connect the concepts of their disciplines under a common theme or question in a fun, creative, and flexible setting.

Eight Steps to

Taking Credit Courses 1. APPLY AND DETERMINE YOUR ENROLLMENT STATUS

Part 668.36. The VCCS will only use your social security number in accordance with federal and state reporting requirements and for identification and research purposes within the VCCS. It shall not permit further disclosure unless required or authorized by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, 20 U.S.C. Code 1232G or pursuant to your obtained consent.

2. GET YOUR EMPL ID 3. PREPARE TO ENROLL 4. PLAN YOUR FINANCES 5. ENROLL IN CLASSES 6. PAY TUITION 7. CONFIRM YOUR CLASS SCHEDULE 8. BUY YOUR BOOKS

STEP 1 APPLY AND DETERMINE YOUR

ENROLLMENT STATUS

If you are new to the College, are taking credit classes for the first time, or are returning after an absence of three years or more (before Summer 2008), complete the Application for Admission found online at reynolds.edu under the Future Students section. Students who successfully complete the online application will immediately receive a student identification number. Upon completion of the on-line application, students should print the application and confirmation page for their records. Students may also download and complete the Application for Admission from reynolds.edu/ forms. The completed application can be either mailed or faxed to the College. Once received by the College, paper applications require at least two business days to process. If you are a student that has attended a VCCS college in the past, please see Step 2. It is important that you use your existing Empl ID and do not create a new one. Disclosure of your social security number is not required during application, but it is highly recommended. Disclosure ultimately will be required for most students at the time of enrollment, per Section 6050S of the Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998, or at the time of disbursement of federal financial aid, per 34 Code of Federal Regulations

9

You must be admitted to the College prior to taking placement tests and as a degree-seeking student in order to be considered for financial aid. You do not need to reapply if you have taken credit classes within the past three years. If you left the College on Academic Dismissal, refer to page 22 for information about getting reinstated. Whether new or returning, note that placement testing may be required (see Step 3); financial aid and scholarship applications and documents must be completed by the deadlines (see Step 3); and early-bird registration begins on April 13 (see Calendar of Dates and Times).

STEP 2 GET YOUR EMPL ID As a new student, once your application has been processed, you will be issued a JSRCC student ID number, known as the Empl ID. You will need your Empl ID for all on-campus, web, and telephone services. If you are a returning student and need assistance with locating your Empl ID number or are unsure of your number, check My JSRCC, call the Reynolds Information Center at (804) 371-3000, or visit a computer lab on one of the campuses. If you have more than one Empl ID due to enrollment at another VCCS (Virginia Community College System) institution, and need assistance determining the correct Empl ID number to use for transactions at JSRCC, please call (804) 523-5029.

For a complete list of classes available this summer, visit reynolds.edu.

Students may apply late for financial aid, but there is no guarantee that award eligibility and notification will be in time to assist with tuition, fees, and books for the current registration. Students who are eligible and have been awarded financial aid will receive a letter listing the types and amounts of aid. Anticipated financial aid will be automatically posted to student accounts, and tuition and fees will automatically be charged to each student’s financial aid after the last day to drop a class with a refund.

Student Information System


Summer 2011 Registration Information

All Students

Additional Information ATTENDANCE J. Sargeant Reynolds requires that faculty document and report student attendance. Students who register for a course and fail to attend or communicate with the instructor by the drop deadline for the course will be dropped from the course. Students who stop performing courserelated academic activities (attending class, completing class assignments, taking tests, etc.) or communicating with the instructor for a period of 2-3 weeks before the official withdrawal date for the course will be withdrawn from the course with a grade of W. Individuals who stop performing course-related academic activities after the official withdrawal date for the course will receive a grade of F. It is important to note that students should not stop attending classes and rely on the institution to drop or withdraw them from a course. Students should go to a campus Student Success Center and complete the necessary paperwork within the designated deadline in order to ensure that their intended action be accurately reflected on their transcript.

AUDITING CLASSES Audited classes earn no grade-point credits and carry a grade of X. Students enrolled in classes for credit may not switch to audit after the last day to drop. Additionally, students that wish to change the status of a class from audit to credit must complete the request prior to the last day to drop the class. Permission of the school dean or another appropriate academic administrator is required to audit a course.

CANCELLED/CHANGED CLASSES Each class is offered on the condition of adequate enrollment, and the College reserves the right to cancel or discontinue any course because of low enrollment or for other reasons the College deems necessary. The College also reserves the right to make the necessary changes in this schedule that may be dictated by enrollment, personnel requirements, or availability of facilities. Refunds are generally processed after the Last Day to Drop deadline(s).

COMPLETING “INCOMPLETE” CLASSES An instructor may award an “I” (Incomplete) grade for documented, unavoidable reasons and only when the student is passing the course and

19

has completed most of the course requirements. Students who receive an “I” grade for a course should not register for the same course again. They must complete the course requirements with the guidance and approval of the original instructor. Courses for which the grade of “I” has been awarded must be completed no later than two weeks before the end of the next semester. The instructor will submit the final grade to the Central Admissions and Records office. Failure to complete course requirements by the end of the following semester will result in an automatic grade of F.

COURSE LOAD Students who wish to be enrolled on a full-time basis should register for at least 12 credits. Any student wishing to enroll in more than 18 credits of course work should obtain their advisor’s recommendation prior to seeking the approval of the school dean.

DISCLOSURES Annual Police Report – The College publishes an annual Police Report, which lists criminal offenses, hate offenses, and arrests at each of the three campuses.

Center for Distance Learning The Center for Distance Learning enables and supports learning options in a variety of settings through innovative, alternative delivery methods that provide access to learning opportunities from your home, office, or anywhere you have Internet access. These options are designed to increase educational access to students for whom work schedules, family responsibilities, or other life demands restrict attendance at traditional oncampus classes. Distance learning offers educational opportunities for career advancement, transfer to a four-year college or university, job re-certifications, completion of requirements for the associate degree, or study for personal enrichment. J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College now offers three types of distance learning courses: 1. Online courses: All course work and interactions with the instructor and classmates are completed online. The course is accessed through the Blackboard learning environment. 2. Distance learning courses with in-person or proctor requirement: Most of the instruction is online. However, students will be required make a limited number of trips to a campus site for labs, presentations, and/or other class activities or to a community site for clinicals or internships. Some courses may require proctored testing that can be done at JSRCC testing centers, testing sites at other VCCS college, or any approved site outside of the state of Virginia. 3. Teleconferencing/video-conferencing courses: Students meet at one of the JSRCC campus sites, at a site at another VCCS college, or at a connected off-campus site. Class meetings are scheduled weekly, just like on-campus classes. The instructor is connected to the class by a closed video network. Students see the instructor and students at other sites on monitors in the classroom. Additional instruction and communications will be in Blackboard or via other Internet sources. The course schedule section notes will indicate the specific type of distance learning course for that section. Students should carefully read section notes before registering for a distance learning course.

Hybrid Courses In an effort to provide both flexibility in course schedules and the benefits of face-to-face, on-campus instruction, JSRCC is now offering a range of hybrid courses. Hybrid courses are credit courses that require both online and on-campus class meetings. In these courses, half of the instruction will be in the classroom with the instructor and the other half of the course will be completed online. Many courses will require one meeting per week on campus; evening and Saturday classes may meet on campus on alternating weeks. Students must be proficient in basic computer skills and be able to attend the required on-campus class meetings in order to be successful in these courses. Students should carefully read the section comments in the schedule before registering for any hybrid course.

Are you ready for online learning? New Students are required to take the SmarterMeasure assessment to evaluate their readiness for distance education Take the assessment from any computer either at home or at the College. Get directions and log-in information about SmarterMeasure during student orientation, Advising & Registration (SOAR), From any campus testing center, or by visiting reynolds.edu/therippleeffect.

SmarterMeasure is not a pass or fail test. SmarterMeasure assesses your areas of strength and weakness and guides you toward the tools you need to succeed in the online classroom.

Reynolds Learning Communities “More courses . . . Less class time!”

– Katy Dunn, Reynolds Learning Community student

A learning community is when two (or more) course sections in the same semester are linked together and the same students enroll in both course sections. Classes are typically back-toback, or at the same time on alternating days - so your ÿ rst beneÿ t is getting a better, more convenient class schedule. What do computers and English have in common? Or art and history? A lot if they’re a part of a Reynolds Learning Community. Learning Communities take apparently unrelated courses and link them

together with a theme and a team of professors. “Courses are easier to deal with because they are linked together,” said Reynolds Learning Community student, Kelly McIntosh. Students in LCs are usually more satisÿ ed with their college experience, do better in their classes and return in the following semesters to complete their programs and goals.
