Certificates

A Certificate is granted to students who complete one of the approved non-degree courses of study.

Certificate Requirements. To be eligible for graduation with a certificate from the college, a student must:

• have fulfilled all of the course and credit-hour requirements of the certificate curriculum as specified in the college catalog with 25 percent of the credits acquired at the college awarding the certificate;
• have been certified by appropriate college official for graduation;
• have earned a grade point average of at least 2.0 in all studies attempted which are applicable toward graduation in the student's curriculum;
• have filed an application for graduation in the Office of Admissions and Records;
• have resolved all financial obligations to the college and returned all library and college materials.

If students successfully complete a program of instruction which does not lead to an associate degree or diploma, they may be granted a certificate. If they seek a degree or diploma program but are not able to finish the degree or diploma requirements, they may, upon recommendation of the appropriate instructional division and the Dean, be issued a certificate if the portion of study successfully finished is equal to an approved certificate program offered at the college.
