The following amendments to Academic Policy were adopted by the college's Academic Policy Committee in Spring 2014. These changes were mistakenly excluded from the 2015-2016 Catalog.

1. Enrollment Period for the ACA course, Page 15, CCCC Catalog:

   Orientation

   All new students are expected to participate in an orientation process that is intentionally planned and guided by administration, the College Success Center, the Student Services Department, the faculty, and the Student Government Association CCCC's "extended orientation" model consists of: (1) an on-campus orientation that will help students make an initial connection to the campus, administration, faculty, students and services, and policies; and (2) ACA "first-year experience" courses to be taken during the student's first 2 semesters of enrollment which are designed with a common core curriculum that help to introduce students to more intensive academic-and-college-related concepts to encourage persistence and college/career success.

2. Alternate Method to Meet First-Year Success Course (ACA) Requirement, Page 15, CCCC Catalog, Recommended addition under "Academic Information" section

   ACA Course Waiver Guidelines

   The following students may be waived from the ACA requirement by an academic dean but may still need to fulfill the one credit hour on their program of study:

   • Those who produce evidence of holding a college-level degree from a regionally accredited institution; or Transfer students who receive at least 18 hours credit for prior academic work and/or who demonstrate competency and skills that will facilitate the successful transfer into and persistence in the chosen degree program at Central Carolina Community College. At the dean's discretion, transfer students with 12 hours of earned credit will also be considered if earned as a fulltime student; or
   • Those who have completed an ACA course at the 100-level or above from Central Carolina Community College or another North Carolina Community College, or who have received prior credit for an equivalent course.

   Students who receive the proper signatures on the Credit by Experience form will then be referred to the College Success Center to complete an online ACA tutorial that covers CCCC success.
