Flexible Ways to Earn Undergraduate Credit College Level Examination Program (CLEP) The School of Continuing Studies awards credit based on acceptable performance on specified tests of the College Level Examination Program.

Generally, a student may not attempt credit by examination for a course in which a failing grade was received or for a basic course in those areas in which acceptable college credit has been earned at a more advanced level. For information about general and subject examinations, contact the School of Continuing Studies.

American Council on Education (ACE) ACE’s College Credit Recommendation Service (CREDIT) reviews and offers college-level credit recommendations for many training courses, apprenticeship programs and examination. An official ACE Credit Recommendations Transcript must be submitted directly to the School of Continuing Studies for review of the equivalency and transfer. For more information on ACE or to order a transcript contact the web site at http://www.acenet.edu.

Advanced Placement Program (AP) The School of Continuing Studies participates in the Advance Placement program of the College Board. A student that successfully completed AP examinations prior to their entry in a college-level program may have official scores submitted to the University for review. Scores submitted within ten years of completion of the examination will be considered for the quivalency and transfer of credit. To order test scores contact www.ETS.org.

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.

A recent Gallup Poll shows that about three in four Americans hold some paranormal belief - in at least one of the following: extrasensory perception, haunted houses, ghosts, mental telepathy, clairvoyance, astrology, communicating with the dead, witches, reincarnation, and channeling.

How reasonable are these beliefs? Can they be supported or discounted via modern science or are they purely a matter of faith or personal opinion? What makes one belief or explanation more reasonable than another? Is it immoral to hold beliefs that are not supported by strong evidence? This course examines these and other questions.

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.

Reilly

$1,095

This course focuses primarily on Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales. The premise of this early English masterpiece is that its pilgrims are journeying to Canterbury – they never arrive. The real destination of the text turns out to be not a hallowed fourteenth-century shrine, but the mystery of personality and significance of the stories people tell. Students will read the richly varied array of the pilgrims’ tales first to enjoy them as stories told exceedingly well, and then to search out Chaucer’s implicit understanding of what makes a good story, how narrative reveals something about the teller’s personality, cultural context, and social background, and how power and value systems are challenged and negotiated through dialogic discourse. The flowering of English into a literary language will also be examined.

ENGL 598U ST: Chaucer: The Canterbury Tales 22141 01 3 Thursday 7:00 PM–9:40 PM

Reilly

$1,314

This course focuses primarily on Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales. The premise of this early English masterpiece is that its pilgrims are journeying to Canterbury – they never arrive. The real destination of the text turns out to be not a hallowed fourteenth-century shrine, but the mystery of personality and significance of the stories people tell. Students will read the richly varied array of the pilgrims’ tales first to enjoy them as stories told exceedingly well, and then to search out Chaucer’s implicit understanding of what makes a good story, how narrative reveals something about the teller’s personality, cultural context, and social background, and how power and value systems are challenged and negotiated through dialogic discourse. The flowering of English into a literary language will also be examined.

Note: MLA students only.

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 are no interest or finance charges 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 or paying with credit cards. 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 predetermined payment amounts that you authorize your bank to make on your behalf on a specific date each month. You may use 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 your bank sends payment on the 5th of the month directly to the bank that Tuition Pay uses.

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 school never see your bank information or have 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 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 period is August through October or November for the Fall semester and January through March or April for the Spring semester.

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

How to apply for Tuition Pay To enroll in the Tuition Pay Monthly plan simply go to their website at. http://tuitionpay.salliemae.com and click on “enroll now”.

Financial aid is generally disbursed to the student’s account at the start of each term. If financial aid exceeds billable charges, then the student has a credit balance and is due a refund. Refunds for fall term, assuming all financial aid paperwork has been submitted, will be made in mid-September, 2009.

Further information on the University’s policy is available on the Office of the University Registrar‘s web page at: richmond.edu/academics/registrar/ ferpa.html or by contacting the Office of the University Registrar. Students may opt to have their directory information withheld. To exercise this option, the appropriate form must be obtained from the Office the University Registrar, completed and returned to that office. Once filed this form remains in effect until withdrawn in writing by the student to the Office of the University Registrar.

For further information, contact the Office of the University Registrar (phone: 804/289-8639, email: registrar@richmond.edu).

Rights With Respect to Educational Records The Family Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records.

They are: 1) The right to inspect and review their records within 45 days of the date the University receives a request for access.

Students should submit to the University Registrar a written request that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect. The Registrar will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place the records may be inspected.

2) The right to request the amendment of education records that the student believes are inaccurate or misleading.

Students may ask the University of Richmond to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the University Registrar, clearly identify the part of the record

they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading.

If the University of Richmond decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the University will notify the student of the decision and advise them of their 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 consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.

One exception, which permits disclosure without consent, is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is defined as a person employed by the University in an administrative, supervisory, academic support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the University of Richmond has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; 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 fulfilled his or her professional responsibility.

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.

From the Cover Who is the workforce of tomorrow? Mostly it’s the workforce of today. As jobs requiring bachelor’s and master’s degrees continue to increase, sending our children to college is only part of the answer. It’s more important than ever that we all make an investment in education. For many, that’s a major life change, and we’d like to make it as hassle-free as possible. Education is a great way to keep yourself valuable to your organization. Complete your bachelor’s degree or pursue an advanced degree. Learn new job skills by taking a class or two for professional development. Or prepare for a second career by enrolling in a certificate program. No matter which options you choose, you can feel confident knowing that it’ll be affordable and convenient at SCS. Rethinking your career? Want to renew some job skills or retool your resume? Ready to return to school? See pages 37 and 39 for our undergraduate and graduate applications and apply today.
