This is a great time to go back to school.

Who is the workforce of tomorrow? Mostly it’s the workforce of today.

As jobs requiring bachelor’s and master’s degrees have continued to increase, sending our children to college is only part of the answer. Only one in three working U.S. adults has a bachelor’s degree, making the investment in your education one of the best ways to enhance your career prospects as well as the country’s economic strength. The University of Richmond’s School of Continuing Studies offers working adults a wide range of opportunities to acquire the knowledge and skills to advance in current careers or transition to new jobs and careers.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Independent Study

An independent study is a course taken with faculty supervision for knowledge enhancement beyond the courses offered in a particular area of interest. In rare cases, when scheduling or other conflicts exist, a regular course may be taken as an independent study. Independent study courses may be used in the Areas of Study and General Distribution and may be used to enhance courses in the major.

Consult with your academic advisor before applying to earn credit by independent study.

Transfer Credit

Courses offered in transfer will be evaluated for acceptance provided the work was taken at an institution accredited as degree-granting by a recognized regional accrediting body for higher education at the time the course work is completed. A grade of or equivalent to C (2.0) or better must have been earned in the particular course. Course work accepted in transfer shall be applied to specific degree requirements subject to the discretion of the School of Continuing Studies. Transfer work will be accepted during the final semester of a program only with prior approval. CLEP exams are considered transfer credits. Additional information on our transfer policy is located in the current edition of our catalog.

Portfolio Assessment of Prior Learning Yet another way for students to earn academic credit is by portfolio assessment of prior learning. This involves developing a learning portfolio that demonstrates college-level learning that occurred on the job or during training, through volunteer work or by other means. By preparing and submitting a learning portfolio, SCS students can earn up to 30 credits toward a bachelor’s degree and 15 credits toward an associate’s degree. Six hours of portfolio credit may be applied toward the certificate or toward the major. Students become eligible to submit portfolios after completing 12 semester hours at the University of Richmond. Additional information on portfolio assessment of prior learning is located in the current edition of our catalog.

New Educational Leadership graduate programs begin in spring 2010.

In school environments where greater accountability and higher demands are placed on teachers, educational leaders face challenges as never before. In fact, the educational leaders of tomorrow will require more innovative and nontraditional graduate programs to help them succeed. To meet this demand, we’ve developed two new graduate programs in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, a Graduate Certificate and a Master of Education. Both combine coursework with a practicum component and an extended reflective leadership field experience.

We offer a Graduate Certificate for those seeking an administration/supervision endorsement for leading a public school in Virginia and have already earned a master’s degree. For those who have not earned a master’s degree, we offer the Master of Education option.

Attend an Info Session Learn more at an upcoming Information Session: • July 15: 6:30–8 p.m.

Tuition Pay by Sallie Mae is an educational financing company that provides families and students with a low cost plan for budgeting tuition and other education expenses. The Tuition Pay Monthly plan is NOT a loan program, therefore no debt is incurred. There is no interest or finance charge assessed by Tuition Pay on the unpaid balance due to the college.

The only fee to budget payments through Tuition Pay is a $35.00 per semester nonrefundable enrollment fee. Payments made through Tuition Pay are considerably less expensive than the cost of obtaining loans, paying with credit cards, or budgeting through other interest or feecharging payment plans. There is no credit search or qualifications necessary to use Tuition Pay. One of the reasons why the cost to budget with Tuition Pay is so affordable is because payments through Tuition Pay are made by using automatic payments from your bank. The automatic payment helps you budget tuition payments in a convenient way which ensures that the college will receive dependable and consistent tuition payments. With Tuition Pay you never miss a payment and you save the time and expense of writing and mailing checks.

How does the automatic payment work?

Automatic payments are simply payments that you authorize your bank to make on your behalf on a specific date each month. The amount paid by your bank is a predetermined amount that you have authorized. Your bank will make these payments from either your checking or

savings account, according to the instructions you have provided on your agreement with Tuition Pay. Payments will be made until the total amount due to the college is paid in full. Automatic payments are used to pay mortgages, life insurance premiums, car payments, utilities, and other types of bills.

When you use Tuition Pay to pay your school tuition, your bank sends your payment on the 5th of the month directly to the bank that Tuition Pay uses to collect tuition payments. Before any payment is made, Tuition Pay provides evidence of your authorization for tuition payments to your bank. Your bank will usually verify this authorization with you and then set up the payment schedule. It is important to remember that Tuition Pay and your college never see your bank account or have any direct access to your account.

You never lose any control of your account. The automatic payment process is strictly controlled by state and federal laws. With Tuition Pay your payments are made on the 5th of each month.

Budget Period To qualify for the 3-month or 4-month payment plan, Tuition Pay must receive student applications by August 10th for the Fall semester or December 10th for the Spring semester. The budget periods are as follows: 3-Month Plan • Fall: August through October • Spring: January through March

4-Month Plan • Fall: August through November • Spring: January through April

The Tuition Pay payment plan is not available for courses offered during the Summer semester.

General Fee Refund

This schedule is adapted for summer terms.

Students who withdraw from the University and who are receiving any financial assistance may be required to return such assistance per Public Law 668.22 and institutional policy. The University of Richmond complies with all federal regulations governing recipients of federal Title IV funds. Information regarding financial aid refund policies is available in the Financial Aid Office.

The amount of the refund is based on the date that written withdrawal notification is received in the Office of the Dean.

Any special fee is non-refundable after the first day of class.

All SCS degree and certificate programs are eligible programs for financial aid consideration EXCEPT for the Liberal Arts certificate (no longer accepting new students) and Leadership certificate, and the undergraduate certificate in Performance Coaching Skills (no longer accepting new students).

Specific enrollment requirements and application processes vary depending on the aid program and are outlined below. Most applications are available on line at: http://oncampus.richmond.edu/financialaid/ Scholarships Several scholarships are available for School of Continuing Studies students who are actively pursuing a planned program of study and who have completed at least 15 semester hours in the School of Continuing Studies. Call the School of Continuing Studies at 289-8133 to request an application (leave your name, address, and zip code). Deadline for applications is July 1, 2009, for the 2009-10 school year.

Loans Federal Direct and private loans are available for students who are enrolled in a degree or certificate program on at least a half-time basis (6 credit hours/term). Contact the Financial Aid office at 289-8438 or finaid@richmond.edu for application information. Financial Aid applications and Loan applications must be submitted at least six weeks prior to the start of the term for funding to be available by the time classes begin.

Cost is $30 through Summer 2010.

Attendance

A student may be absent no more than 25% of class meetings, including absences due to late enrollment. If a student has more than the maximum number of absences, whether excused or unexcused, a grade of “V” (failure due to excessive absences) will be recorded. The instructor may set a more rigorous attendance policy or, with the approval of the Dean, waive the attendance policy for a student demonstrating sufficient course knowledge and just cause.

Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing.

3) The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.

4) The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the University of Richmond to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20202-4605 The University of Richmond‘s complete FERPA Policy Statement is available as part of the Office of the University Registrar‘s Web page at www.richmond.edu/academics/registrar/ferpa.html or by contacting the Office of the University Registrar.

This is a great time to go back to school.

Who is the workforce of tomorrow? Mostly it’s the workforce of today.

As jobs requiring bachelor’s and master’s degrees have continued to increase, sending our children to college is only part of the answer. Only one in three working U.S. adults has a bachelor’s degree, making the investment in your education one of the best ways to enhance your career prospects as well as the country’s economic strength. The University of Richmond’s School of Continuing Studies offers working adults a wide range of opportunities to acquire the knowledge and skills to advance in current careers or transition to new jobs and careers.

Learn more at an upcoming Information Session for Adult Students July 15 • October 7 • October 28 • November 18 Visit scs.richmond.edu/degrees/info-sessions.html or call (804) 287-1204 (and press “2”) to reserve a seat. RSVP required.
