DEADLINES - Short Term Courses As a general rule, short-term course deadline dates for all California Community Colleges are determined as follows: Refund Deadline: 10% of class sessions No “W” Deadline: 30% of class sessions P/NP Deadline: 30% of class sessions “W” Deadline: 75% of class sessions It remains the responsibility of the student to drop courses by the appropriate deadline. Before you qualify for a refund/credit of enrollment/health/parking/ASB/Student Rep/Student Center Fees you MUST DROP your classes and return parking permits to the Business Office by the specified deadline date. IMPORTANT: All fees are due and payable immediately. Students who do not pay their fees in a timely manner may have one or both of the following actions taken: be dropped from their classes and required to re-enroll and/or have a financial hold placed against their records which until paid will prevent all enrollment, drops, and withdrawals, prohibit access to transcripts, grades, and limit access to certain campus services. Students who drop classes after the refund deadline are held responsible for all fees owed. Enrollment fees are set by the State and are subject to change without notice and may be retroactive; all other fees are set by the Ventura County Community College District Board of Trustees and are subject to change by Board action.

WAITLIST HELP FOR CLOSED CLASSES WAITLIST HELP FOR CLOSED CLASSES Students may choose to place themselves on a waitlist for closed classes. Being on a waitlist gives students the best chance of being admitted to a closed class. Please see below for more information: WAITLIST INFORMATION • Being on a waitlist does not guarantee admission to the class. However, waitlisted students will automatically be registered into the waitlisted class in priority order if a seat becomes available. Waitlisted students will also be admitted to the class before all other students seeking admission to the class who are not on the waitlist. • Students may waitlist in a closed class until the day before the class begins. You will not be prompted to waitlist for a class if the waitlist option is no longer available. • It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of their registration and waitlist status. The colleges will make every attempt to notify students by email when they are moved from the waitlist into the class or removed from a waitlist as a result of subsequent program changes. • Fees will be assessed when a student is moved from the waitlist and registered in the class. • You must have an active email address on file. This is how the college will notify you if you are moved from the waitlist into the class. Use MyVCCCD to add or update your email address. • Check the status of your waitlisted classes frequently. WAITLIST ELIGIBILITY .You may not register or place yourself on the waitlist for any other class that meets at the same time as the waitlisted class. .You may not register or place yourself on the waitlist for another section of the same course as the waitlisted class. Example: if you are registered in English 1A, you cannot also be on the waitlist for a different section of English 1A. .Do not waitlist for the same class in more than one semester. .Be sure you meet the prerequisites for the waitlisted course. This means that students must have completed the prerequisite course at this college with a grade of A, B, C or Pass (previously called Credit), or must have seen a counselor for prerequisite clearance. .Do not exceed your maximum allowable number of units including the units for the waitlisted course. Requests for unit overload must be approved by a counselor and filed with the Admissions and Records Office. .Do not exceed the maximum allowable number of repeats for any class. .If you have waitlisted for an on-line or partially on-line class you will be able to log into the class for the first two weeks of the class only. If you have not officially registered into the class by the end of the 2nd week of the class, your access into the class will expire until you officially enroll. .Remember that any changes to your schedule may affect your waitlist status. You will be removed from the waitlist if your schedule changes affect your eligibility to remain on the waitlist. .If you are dropped from your classes because you did not pay your fees, you will also be dropped from all waitlisted classes. If you are still on the waitlist on the first day of instruction, you must attend the first class meeting! The instructor will use the waitlist to admit additional students by issuing an add authorization code for registration on MyVCCCD (if seats are available). 2009-2010 OC Curriculum, Awards, Certificates, and Degrees* 2009-2010 OC Curriculum, Awards, Certificates, and Degrees* coursesassociatedegreecprertificateoficiencyaward Addictive Disorders Studies • Addictive Disorders Studies X X X • Addictive Disorders Studies in the Criminal Justice System X X X African-American Studies X Air Conditioning & Refrigeration • Air Conditioning & Refrigeration X X X American Sign Language X Anthropology • Anthropology X X Area Studies X Art • Art X X • Art Two-Dimensional Studio X X • Art Three-Dimensional Studio X X Asian-American Studies X Assistive Computer Technology X Astronomy X Automotive • Automotive Body and Fender Repair X X X • Automotive Technology X X X Biological Sciences • Anatomy X • Biology X X • Microbiology X • Physiology X Business • Accounting X X X • Business X X • Business Management X X X Chemistry X Chicano Studies X Child Development • Child Development X X X • Family Day Care Provider Option X X X Communications -Radio, Motion Picture and Television • Television Production Option X X Computer Information Systems • Administrative Assistant X X X • Computer Information Systems X X X • Office Microcomputers X X X • Office Occupations Preparation X Cooperative Work Experience X CSU GE-Breadth X X Dental Assistant X X Dental Hygiene • Dental Hygiene X X Disability Studies X Economics • Economics X X Education X Employment Preparation X Engineering X Engineering Technology • Computer Networking X X X • Engineering Technology Option X X X coursesassociatedegreecprertificateoficiencyaward English • English X X English as a Second Language X Environmental Science and Resource Management X Fire Technology • Fire Technology (Pre-Service) X X X • Fire Technology (Administrative Fire Services) X X X • Fire Technology (In-Service) X X X General Studies X Geography X Geology X Health Education X History • History X X Culinary Arts & Restaurant Management • Culinary Arts X X X • Restaurant Management X X X IGETC X X Interdisciplinary Studies X Japanese X Learning Skills X Legal Assisting/Paralegal Studies* • Legal Assisting/Paralegal Studies X X X Marine Studies • Marine Studies X X Mathematics • Mathematics X X Music X Personal Growth/ Leadership X Philosophy • Philosophy X X Physical Education X Physical Science X Physics X Political Science • Political Science X X Psychology • Psychology X X Sociology • Sociology X X • Human Services Option** X X Spanish • Spanish X X Special Education X Speech X Television (see Communications) *Submitted for State Approval **Certificate of Achievement Submitted for State Approval ASSOCIATE DEGREES Awarded to students who have successfully completed a minimum of 60 semester units including general education and a minimum of 18 units in a major or area of emphasis.

Select and complete courses from the general education pattern of a transfer institution to include, at a minimum, the following Title 5 requirements: • Natural Sciences (3 units) • Social and Behavioral Sciences (3 units) • Arts and Humanities (3 units) • Language and Rationality - English Composition (3 units) • Communication and Analytical Thinking (3 units) General Studies (A.A.) Pattern III This pattern is intended for students who are planning to transfer to a California public four-year university (UC or CSU) and plan to use the CSU GE or IGETC to fulfill their lower division general education. 1. Complete the CSU GE-Breadth (pg. 21) or IGETC (pg. 22) Note: Students who complete the CSU GE-Breadth or IGETC need to apply for GE certification in the Transfer Center or Counseling Office and may also apply for a Certificate of Achievement. 3. Choose an area of emphasis from one of three categories listed below. • Complete a minimum of 18 units in the chosen area with a grade of C or better (or a “P”) in each of the courses selected within the chosen area of emphasis. • Complete a minimum of 6 of the 18 units within a single discipline. • Select courses that fulfill major preparation requirements for the chosen transfer institution. CSU and UC articulation can be found on www.assist.org. Other articulation can be found in the Transfer Center. If no articulation exists with your intended transfer institution, you may obtain guidance from recruitment counselors, the transfer institution’s departmental advisors in your major and their catalog/website.

Counselors can help students select courses that fulfill lower-division major requirements as well as general education. Certification is not automatic. After students complete the CSU GE-Breadth pattern, they must meet with a counselor in the Counseling Office or Transfer Center to request certification. Without this “certification”, students may have additional lower-division general education requirements to fulfill after transfer that vary from campus to campus in the CSU. Students who fully complete the CSU GE-Breadth for Oxnard College will be eligible to apply for a Certificate of Achievement in California State University General Education-Breadth (CSU GE-Breadth). CSU GE is not appropriate for every major/college within the CSU. Check on www.assist.org or with your counselor or the Transfer Center for updated information. A grade of “C” or better is required to fulfill areas A1, A2, A3, and B4. Area A: Communication in the English Language Complete one course from each group (A1, A2, A3).

All courses taken for IGETC must be completed with a grade of "C" or better (or score of 3 or better on AP tests). Grades of "C-" are not acceptable. Once a student has completed the IGETC, they must make an appointment with an Oxnard College counselor or the Transfer Center to request certification; it is not automatic. Pre-major courses may also be completed prior to transfer and may count towards IGETC. Counselors can help students choose appropriate courses for their major and transfer goals. Students wishing to use a course to meet an IGETC requirement must be sure that the course is on the IGETC list during the academic year when it is taken. IGETC is not appropriate preparation for some colleges/majors within the UC/CSU systems. See pages 69-72 in the catalog for IGETC considerations and check on www.assist.org for updated information. Students who fully complete the IGETC for Oxnard College will be eligible to apply for a Certificate of Achievement in Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). IGETC Certification must be requested prior to transferring. Courses may only be used to fulfill one category and may not be double-counted.

The college catalog identifies those courses which may be repeated for a specific number of times. (Petition for Course Repetition forms are available in the Counseling Office.) Course Prerequisites, Corequisites, and Recommended Preparation A course prerequisite indicates the preparation which is required to complete a particular course successfully. For example, if you enroll in general chemistry, you are likely to have difficulty in the course without adequate preparation in algebra. A course corequisite indicates the course or courses in which you must be concurrently enrolled in order to succeed in a specific course for which you are registered. Recommended preparation indicates the preparation suggested by the faculty to complete a particular course successfully. While encouraged to do so, you do not have to satisfy recommended preparation guidelines to enroll in a course. Course prerequisites, corequisites, or recommended preparation are specified within course descriptions announced in the catalog; they are also specified in this schedule of classes. A course has no prerequisites or corequisites unless so designated. You are expected to have satisfied the prerequisite or corequisite requirements for all courses in which you enroll. If you have the equivalent past experience, have completed appropriate course work, or desire to challenge the validity of a prerequisite/corequisite, the state law permits that process. The petition for the aforementioned challenge is available in the Counseling Office. The challenge process requires you to show specific grounds for waiving the prerequisite or corequisite. The grounds you may use to pursue a challenge are as follows: 1. You will be subject to undue delay in attaining the goal of your educational plan because the prerequisite or corequisite course has not been made reasonably available. 2. The prerequisite or corequisite is not valid because it is not necessary for success in the course for which it is required. 3. The prerequisite or corequisite is unlawfully discriminatory or is being applied in an unlawfully discriminatory manner. 4. You have the knowledge or ability to succeed in the course despite not meeting the prerequisite or corequisite. Full-Time Status You are a full-time student if you are registered in 12 units or more in a regular semester; 4 units or more in a summer session. Dropping a Class or Withdrawing From College You may drop a class by using one of the methods listed below: • on the web at my.vcccd.edu • high school students in person at the Admissions Office lobby windows (SS&A Bldg) IF YOU WITHDRAW FROM CLASS WITHOUT PAYING YOUR STUDENT FEES, YOU MAY STILL BE LIABLE FOR THOSE FEES, AND A “HOLD” WILL BE PLACED ON YOUR STUDENT RECORDS UNTIL THEY ARE PAID IN FULL.

Veterans' Affairs The Veterans’ Readjustment Act of 1966 (PL 89-358) provides educational assistance for veterans who served on active duty for a period of more than 180 days. The monthly basic educational assistance allowance for training may be paid on a full-time (12 units), three quarter-time (9 units), or half-time (6 units) basis. All veterans receiving Veteran’s Educational Benefits are required to: 1. Submit to the Admissions and Records Office official academic transcripts from each college previously attended, 2. Complete a Student Educational Plan (SEP) with a VA college counselor and submit the SEP to the VA representative in the Admissions Office. Courses will not be certified for VA benefits until this is completed. Only courses that meet requirements for the major and degree objective indicated on the SEP will be certified for payment. If the educational objective is changed, the student must complete a new SEP and report to the Veterans’ Assistant to update the 22-1995 form. Veterans must request enrollment certification each semester, if they want to continue to receive benefits. In addition to the academic probation and dismissal standards applicable to all students, the Veteran’s Administration requires that standards of progress be adopted for Certification of Educational Benefits. The Admissions and Records Office will notify the VA that satisfactory progress is not being made and will not certify educational benefits eligibility if the veteran has been dismissed due to academic or progress probation regulations. Credit may be granted for regular training courses completed at a military base during a term of military service based on the recommendations of the American Council on Education (ACE), and for approved courses completed with the United States Armed Forces Institute. In order to receive credit for military training, Veterans must see a Veteran’s Counselor and present authentic military service and training records (DD295) and/or a copy of their discharge paper (DD214). Under existing Veterans’ Administration regulations, a student repeating a course is not eligible for veterans’ benefits in most cases. Veterans should, therefore, check with the Veterans’ Assistant in the Admissions Office before repeating a course. First-time benefit applicants should apply at www.va.gov .

Ventura County Community College District is actively committed to creating and maintaining an environment which respects the dignity of individuals and groups. The goal of Ventura County Community College District is to be sensitive to the needs of students, staff and those who interact with the college community, while preserving the rights of those against whom allegations have been made. Employees or students of the District who feel that they have been harassed or discriminated against based on race, color, national or ethnic origin, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, veteran status, marital status, or physical or mental disability have the right to file a complaint. The procedures outlined govern the process for all discrimination complaints filed by employees or students, including sexual harassment. Complaints may be filed student against student, student against employee, employee against student, employee against employee, visitor against employee, employee against visitor, etc. Complaints must be filed with the District within one year of the alleged harassment or discrimination or within one year of the date on which the Complainant knew or should have known of the facts of the alleged incident. District employees involved in any aspect of investigating or resolving a complaint of harassment or discrimination will have received training from a qualified source in advance of their service. Non-retaliation for filing—no individual will suffer retaliation as a result of filing a claim or being a witness in regard to harassment/discrimination allegations. Persons engaging in retaliation are subject to disciplinary action. DEFINITIONS Complainant: An individual who believes that he/she has been the victim of harassment or discrimination. Respondent: An individual against whom a claim of harassment or discrimination is made. Complaint: A written allegation that a student, staff member, or other individual who interacts with VCCCD has subjected someone to harassment or discrimination. Responsible District Officer: The person at the District who is responsible for coordinating the investigations of all harassment and discrimination complaints. Intake Facilitator: The person on the campus or at the District Service Center who is responsible for conducting the informal and/or formal investigation of all harassment/discrimination complaints. The District has established the following procedures to resolve charges of harassment or discrimination. INFORMAL PROCESS An individual who has reason to believe that he or she has been a victim of harassment or discrimination based on race, color, national or ethnic origin, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, marital status, veteran status, or physical or mental disability may resolve the matter through an informal process under this procedure. Participation in the informal process is optional and not a prerequisite to filing a formal complaint. 1. A person who believes that he or she has personally suffered harassment or discrimination should contact the appropriate Intake Facilitator at their location to directly discuss his or her concerns. 2. The Intake Facilitator may inform the Respondent of the possible complaint and shall meet with the Complainant to: a. understand the nature of the concern; b. give to Complainant a copy of the District’s Sexual Harassment Policy brochure and this “Complaint Procedure for Harassment/ Discrimination” document; c. inform Complainant of his or her rights under this complaint procedure; d. assist the Complainant in any way advisable. 3. If the Complainant and the Respondent agree to a proposed resolution, the resolution shall be implemented and the informal process shall be concluded. At any time during the informal process, the Complainant may initiate a formal complaint. 4. The Intake Facilitator shall keep a written log of discussions and a record of the resolution. This information shall become part of the official investigation file if the Complainant initiates a formal complaint. If the parties reach a tentative agreement upon resolution of the complaint, a letter summarizing the resolution shall be sent to the Complainant and the Respondent. A copy of this letter shall be sent to Human Resources for approval. 5. Once a complaint is put in writing and signed by the Complainant, the Complaint is considered to be formal and the formal complaint procedures should be followed. FORMAL PROCESS 1. A person who alleges that he or she has personally suffered harassment or discrimination based on race, color, national or ethnic origin, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, veteran status, marital status, or physical or mental disability shall complete and sign the District’s Harassment/Discrimination Complaint Form within one year of the alleged incident or within one year of the date on which the Complainant knew or should have known of the facts of the harassment or discrimination incident. 2. On the complaint form, the Complainant shall describe in detail such alleged harassment or discrimination and the action the Complainant requests to resolve the matter. All written complaints shall be signed and dated by the Complainant, and shall contain at least the name(s) of the individual(s) involved, the date(s) of the event(s) at issue and a detailed description of the actions constituting the alleged harassment or discrimination. Names, addresses and phone numbers of witnesses or potential witnesses should also be included, when possible. 3. The Intake Facilitator will review the complaint to determine whether it describes the kind of harassment or discrimination which is prohibited under these procedures and whether the complaint sufficiently describes the facts of the alleged misconduct. If the complaint does not describe the kind of prohibited conduct the District investigates under the procedures, the Complainant will be notified and will be referred to the appropriate process. If the complaint does not sufficiently describe the facts giving rise to the complaint so that a determination can be made regarding whether the alleged misconduct is covered under these procedures, the complaint will be returned and the Complainant will be invited to submit an amended complaint providing enough factual detail to allow the above determination to be made. 4. After a proper complaint is received, the Intake Facilitator shall investigate the charges as stated in the complaint. The Intake Facilitator shall send a copy of the complaint to the Responsible District Officer, who, after consultation with the Vice Chancellor of Human Resources and the District Chancellor, shall send a copy to the State Chancellor of the California Community College System. A summary of the complaint and procedures shall also be sent to the Respondent. A copy of the complaint will be maintained in the Office of Human Resources at the District Service Center. 5. The Intake Facilitator shall meet with the Complainant to review the nature of the complaint and identify the scope and nature of the investigation. If the Complainant fails to meet with the Intake Facilitator within a reasonable time (usually 10 working days), the Intake Facilitator will continue the investigation to the best of his/her abilities based on the written formal complaint. After meeting with the Complainant, the Intake Facilitator shall give the Respondent an opportunity to meet with him/her to receive the Respondent’s answer to the complaint and to review with Respondent the scope and nature of the investigation. Complainant and Respondent may inform the Intake Facilitator of witnesses to contact and may present documents in support of their positions. 6. Prior to completing the investigation, the Intake Facilitator shall meet again with the Complainant and the Respondent separately, to give an overview of the steps taken during the investigation, to ask Complainant and Respondent for the names of any other individuals the Intake Facilitator might speak with to request any additional information. 7. The Responsible District Officer shall determine whether harassment or discrimination did or did not occur with respect to each allegation in the complaint. The findings shall take into consideration the severity of the conduct, the pervasiveness of the conduct, the pertinent background, and other relevant District policies. If disciplinary action is recommended, appropriate contractual due process and statutory processes will be invoked. If the Responsible District Officer finds there is no evidence to sustain the allegation, the record shall be kept confidential, except to the extent that disclosure may be required by law. The records will be destroyed to the extent the law allows. After completion of the investigation, the Intake Facilitator shall meet with the Responsible District Officer who shall be responsible for reviewing the Intake Facilitator’s report, making factual determinations, reaching a conclusion regarding the charges, and recommending appropriate action, if any. 8. In the event the complaint is against the Responsible District Officer, the Vice Chancellor of Human Resources shall appoint an investigator to review the complaint. In the event the complaint is against the Vice Chancellor of Human Resources, the District Chancellor or designee shall appoint an investigator to hear the complaint, receive the report, and make a determination on any final action. 9. The District shall complete its investigation and forward to the Complainant and Respondent within 90 calendar days of receiving a complaint, and the Chancellor of the California Community College System within 150 calendar days of receiving a complaint, all of the following: a. A summary of the investigative report; b. A written notice setting forth: (1) the findings of the District investigator and District Chancellor as to whether harassment or discrimination based on race, color, national or ethnic origin, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, veteran status, marital status, or physical or mental disability did or did not occur with respect to each allegation in the complaint; (2) a description of actions to be taken, if any, to remedy any discrimination or harassment that occurred and to prevent similar problems from occurring in the future; (3) the proposed resolution of the complaint; (4) the Complainant’s right to appeal to the District Chancellor, then the State Chancellor of the California Community College System; and (5) In the event disciplinary action is recommended for the Respondent, he/she shall be entitled to all due process procedures provided by statute and/or the employee collective bargaining agreement. APPEAL RIGHTS If the Complainant is not satisfied with the results of the formal level administrative determination, the Complainant may appeal the determination by submitting objections to the District Chancellor within fifteen calendar days of the receipt of the determination. Within forty-five calendar days of receiving the Complainant’s appeal, a copy of the final District decision rendered by the District Chancellor shall be forwarded to the Complainant , the State Chancellor of the California Community College System, and, if appropriate, the Respondent. If the District Chancellor does not act within forty-five calendar days, the administrative determination shall be deemed approved and shall become the final District decision in the matter. Complainant shall have the right to file a written appeal with the State Chancellor of the California Community College System within thirty calendar days after the District Chancellor has issued the final District decision or permits the administrative determination to become final.
