Degree and Certificate Policies
- Students enrolling at the Community College of Aurora will follow the provisions of the catalog in use at the time of admission. When students interrupt their continuous attendance at CCA for three consecutive terms, or change their degree or certificate program, they will become subject to the provisions of the catalog current with their next enrollment.
- Students should complete the course requirements as prescribed by the specific degree or certificate program.
- Students must maintain a required grade point average of 2.0 (C) in all credit applicable toward a degree or certificate.
- For A.A.S. degrees and certificates, students should earn at least a C in all courses in the area of study (eg. students working on a program in business must earn a C or higher in all business related coursework). D grades in general education coursework may allow graduation, but likely will not transfer to other institutions.
- As of May 29, 2012 (summer semester 2012), "D" grades earned will not be applicable to A.A., A.S., and A.G.S. degrees at CCA.
- To graduate with a degree or certificate from CCA, 25% of all coursework applicable toward that degree or certificate must satisfy residency requirements.
- Residency requirements at CCA are:
- Credit hours completed at CCA
- Credit hours completed at CCCOnline through CCA
- Credit hours that are 100-level or above and applicable towards your degree or certificate requirements
- Residency requirements at CCA do not include:
- Transfer credits
- English as a Second Language credits
- Developmental Education credits
- Prior Learning Assessment credits
- Credit hours that are 100-level and above but that are not applicable towards your degree or certificate requirements
- To obtain a single degree or certificate at CCA, a student must complete all program requirements and satisfy all residency requirements (see item 6 above). For example, a 60 credit hour degree requires that a student complete 15 credit hours following residency guidelines.
- To obtain a second degree from CCA, a student must complete all program requirements, satisfy all residency requirements (see item 6 above), and complete an additional 15 credit hours that meet residency requirements at CCA. The additional 15 credit hours must be unique to the second degree and not used for completion of the first degree.
- The college reserves the right to substitute or delete course work requirements based on current curriculum. Students are assured that if the curriculum does change, the college will make every effort to determine an equitable solution.
- No more than six semester hours of special topics may be applied to any associate degree program.
- No more than six semester hours of independent study courses may be applied to any associate degree program.
- No more than six semester hours of directed study courses may be applied to any associate degree program.
