Modesto Junior College, one of the oldest community colleges in the state, was organized in 1921 to serve the first junior college district established under a State Legislature Enabling Act. Modesto Junior College was established to meet the needs of the community. Today the college strives to maintain the same objective—that of dedication and service to the community.
The College began with a charter enrollment of 61 students. Through the years registration has increased until today more than 18,000 day and evening students are enrolled each semester. In addition, more than 8,000 community participants take advantage of classes and programs offered through community education. To complement student growth, the campus has grown as well.
The college holds the distinction of having erected the first junior college classroom building in the state. From this modest beginning, MJC has grown until it now provides an outstanding learning environment on two sites: the original MJC-East on College Avenue and MJC-West on Blue Gum Avenue in northwest Modesto. In addition to the two sites, more than 20 community sites are used to meet particular educational needs.
The area boundaries have also changed. In 1964, by action of the electorate, the boundaries were enlarged to include nearly 4,000 square miles, encompassing high school districts in Stanislaus and Tuolumne Counties, the Ripon High School District in San Joaquin County, the Gustine and Hilmar High School Districts in Merced County and the Harney Elementary School District in Santa Clara County. The district also includes the Bret Harte 10 Union High School District, the former Copperopolis Elementary School District and the former Salt Spring Valley Elementary School District in Calaveras County.
A Board of Trustees was elected in 1964 to govern the affairs of the expanded district. In 1965 the name Yosemite Junior College District was selected. It was later changed to Yosemite Community College District. The Yosemite Community College District also includes Columbia College, located in Columbia, California. Visit About MJC to learn more.

Notice:
The information contained in this catalog details the anticipated programs, courses, rules, regulations, and fees of Modesto Junior College. The college disclaims liability for any unintended errors in this publication and reserves the right to discontinue or postpone courses, and correct errors and omissions. All enrollment fees are subject to change. This catalog sets forth college policies for all college programs and services in accordance with the California Education Code, California Code of Regulations (Title 5), and District and college policies.
Catalog rights refer to the right of every continuing student to choose one, and only one, catalog under whose course requirements the student is to be evaluated for the purpose of determining whether the student meets the requirements for MJC graduation, certificate, or certification of general education. The continuing student may select the catalog which was in effect when the student initially enrolled at MJC or any catalog in effect thereafter through and including the semester when the student applies for graduation or transfer certification.
A student remaining in continuous enrollment will retain catalog rights for graduation under the year of initial enrollment. Any academic record symbol entered on a MJC transcript (A through F, P/NP, I, W, MW, SP) shall constitute a record of continuous enrollment. Continuous enrollment is defined as enrollment in at least one term (summer, fall or spring) of the academic year. Students should consult with their counselor for current information. For evaluation purposes, the college will use the terms listed in the catalog’s Academic Calendar to determine a student’s catalog rights.

Students who are concurrently enrolled at Columbia College and who wish to enroll at MJC should consult with the Columbia College Admissions Office. Columbia students may use Columbia College assessment scores and/or course completions to satisfy MJC assessment requirements. See Intradistrict Course Equivalencies Between Modesto Junior College and Columbia College for more information.
It is not necessary to be a resident of California (as defined in the Education Code) to attend MJC. New and returning students are classified as either a California resident or a California nonresident for tuition purposes. In order to determine California residency during the reclassification process, students are required to submit copies of USCIS documentation and/or documentation proving physical presence and showing intent to make California their permanent residence. Students must be residing in California at the time the request for consideration is made. The burden of proof to establish residence is on the student. For more information, visit the enrollment services residency information page.
Consistent with AB 540/AB 2000, non-resident and undocumented students who meet all of the requirements can be exempted from paying non-resident tuition. Students who are exempted from paying non-resident tuition (pursuant to Section 68130.5 and Section 68130.7 of the California Education Code) do not become residents for eligibility purposes for any state-funded program. The exemption is not available for students who are absent from California, and are taking distance education classes from California community colleges.
Advanced admission is granted for academically superior K-12 students who are at least 13 years old by the start of the semester for which they are applying. Students must have met all the established special conditions set forth in the Yosemite Community College District Board Policy & Procedures, as well as California Education Code Sections 48800, 48800.5, 48802, 48802, 76001, and 76002. The school district principal or designee must determine that the petitioner is capable of benefitting from advanced scholastic or vocational (college-level) work. Special part-time students who wish to enroll in more than 11 units will be required to pay their enrollment fees.
Home-study students, who are at least 13 years old by the start of the semester for which they are applying, must include with their admission packet (see above) a certification letter (Private School Affidavit) from their County Schools’ Office or the State of California.
All special part-time students are subject to all college regulations regarding attendance, conduct, scholarship and fee payment. Courses attempted and units earned will be recorded on the student’s permanent record and may be used toward meeting graduation, transfer, or certification requirements at Modesto Junior College.
Note: It is expected that all special part-time students enrolling in college courses have the maturity to function effectively on a college campus. No special arrangements for additional supervision of underage students are available. College courses are designed for adult students. In a very small number of disciplines, course content may be unusually frank in order to deal with scholarly discussion of behavioral, artistic, human or other issues. Unlike K-12 schools, colleges do not contact parents in advance to inform them of these issues. Parents are hereby notified that it is their responsibility to assure that their child is able to handle the college environment, as well as the content of the courses in which the student enrolls. Parents may wish to investigate the curriculum prior to enrolling their student if they have any questions or concerns.
Programs such as Nursing, Respiratory Care, Medical Assisting, and the Fire Academy require special program admission in addition to college admission. After submitting a completed Admissions Application to the Enrollment Services Office, contact either the Allied Health Division (209) 575-6373 for information about admission into Nursing, Respiratory Care, and Medical Assisting, or contact the Public Safety Department at (209) 548-5706 for information about the Fire Academy.
A student who has been academically dismissed may petition for readmission by meeting with a counselor and completing a Petition for Readmission during Counseling Department deadlines after receiving notice of dismissal. Forms are available in the Counseling Center. Petitions will be reviewed by the Dean of Student Services and counselors. The student may be readmitted if there is strong evidence showing promise of success.
The Dean of Student Services, and/or a counselor, upon granting readmission to a dismissed student, may impose certain restrictions, such as unit load, periodic grade reviews, etc., which are felt to be in the best interests of the student. A readmitted student is subject to immediate dismissal should he/she fail, at any time, to meet the conditions stipulated by the Dean of Student Services. If the petition is denied, the student may apply for readmission after one year has passed since dismissal.
Students must complete the core services, (orientation, assessment process, abbreviated ED plan) by the college established deadline in order to be eligible for priority registration. The College deadline is available on the College website.
Website: College Orientation
Phone: (209) 575-6789
All new and returning students, who do not have an associate degree or higher and who have not previously attended an MJC college orientation are required to attend orientation prior to their registration date and time. Orientation familiarizes each new MJC student with campus policies, procedures, and student rights and responsibilities. Arrangements can be made for students with disabilities and limited English-speaking students who require accommodations. To make accommodations, students should request accommodations 10 days before they plan to attend a workshop.
In person Orientation workshops are scheduled before each new and returning student registration period. Go to the MJC Website to find current orientation/advising workshop sessions. Reservations are required for in person orientation. Service is on a first come first serve basis.
MJC Testing Center Phone: (209) 575-7728 West Campus, Yosemite Hall, Room A117 Website: Testing Center
Students who have graduated from high school in the last 10 years will receive an English and Math placement automatically upon completion of the online admission application (CCCApply).
If you do not have a high school record from the last 10 years, you will take the self-guided placement. Self-Guided Placement is an activity that provides an opportunity to choose the course(s) most suitable for you.
For more information about English and Math placement options, visit Testing Center.
AB 705 is a law that requires California Community Colleges to maximize the probability that a student will enter and complete transfer-level coursework in English and Math within a one year time frame. MJC will (place students into English and Math courses) advise students to enter specific English and Math courses using one or more of the following measures:
Current students are also eligible to re-place using (with) these new placement methods. If a current and/or returning student has already started the English or Math sequence and receives a higher placement using the new placement methods, they will be allowed to enroll in the higher level course.
To be admitted to a test session, an admissions application must be on file in the Enrollment Services Office. Picture ID will be required for test admittance. Seating in the Testing Center is determined on a first-come, first-served basis. Tests begin promptly, and students may not enter after a test has begun. All tests are computerized except for the CASAS test. Students will be admitted to the Testing Center as computers become available. Students with disabilities who need special testing accommodations should notify Testing Center staff of their needs at least 10 days before they plan to test.
Students who may be exempt from testing are welcome to take the assessment tests and to participate in the assessment process. See “Assessment Exemptions” below for more information.
Note: Most math, English composition, ELIC/ELW and science courses require assessment or prerequisite course completion.

Some students have already decided on their educational or career goals before entering MJC. Others are exploring different educational or career paths, and may enter MJC without an educational goal or major.
Students must complete the following steps before making an appointment to see a counselor:
We encourage students to use MJC’s counseling, assessment, and career services to help set and reach educational and career goals. We also encourage students to build relationships with faculty who teach in their areas of interest. Faculty advisors can provide students with the information, support and guidance to help them reach their goals.
All current or returning MJC students are welcome to meet with a counselor. Educational counseling is required for all new students who indicate on their admissions application that they:
Educational counseling is available in the Counseling Center. New student advising sessions are pre-scheduled during peak periods. Students should sign up prior to the new student’s registration date and time. Returning students may drop-in or call the Counseling Center. Students who are exempt from educational counseling are also welcome to meet with a counselor.
New students are encouraged to enroll in a Guidance class, taught by MJC counselors, during their first semester. Guidance courses are essential to student success. In a guidance course, students learn to:
There are several Guidance (GUIDE) courses from which to choose, which also fulfill the Guidance requirement for the associate degree at MJC: Educational Planning; Career Awareness; Job Development Skills; Orientation for Re-entry Adults; Success Strategies for Transfer Students. AG 115, Introduction to Agricultural Education Careers; and STSK 78, College Study Skills, also satisfy the Guidance graduation requirement.
MJC utilizes a program called Early Alert. This program provides intervention for students at the earliest signs of academic problems. Through Early Alert, faculty identify students enrolled in their classes who are experiencing problems and refer them electronically to a service on campus. Staff members of that service contact students for further follow-up.
To register for classes, on the registration date/time provided to you, visit PiratesNet or go to the Enrollment Services Office, either in the East Campus Student Services Building or West Campus Yosemite Hall. Make sure your class schedule is planned with alternative courses, in case your first choice is closed.
Student registration dates and times are posted each term on PiratesNet during the following months; however, prior to being posted on PiratesNet, students will receive their registration date and time in an email sent to them at their college issued student email address. All students are encouraged to activate their student email account and to check it often. This is the only way MJC communicates with students. Activate your Student email address at PiratesNet.

If you have, for example, forgotten to pay a fee, return a library book, musical instrument, or athletic uniform, you may be blocked from registering for classes. Such obligations to the district must be cleared before a student is permitted to register. Outstanding obligations will prevent registration and the ability to obtain verifications of enrollment, grades, academic transcripts, and degrees.
Start dates for open registration vary prior to the start of semester. It will be permitted on a first-come, first-served basis. Students will be able to register for classes that are still open, provided prerequisites have been met. Students may add open classes during the first week of the semester online or by attending the class and discussing add possibilities with the instructor. If seats are available and the student has met the prerequisites (if required), the instructor may give the student an access code. Adds must be processed by the add deadlines.
Once the student is on a waitlist he or she will be notified of an opening in the course through their student email. Once the email notification is generated the student has 5 calendar days to register for the course or they will be dropped from the waitlist.
If a student is still waitlisted at the start of the term, the student must attend the course on the first meeting day. If a space becomes available in the course the instructor will provide the student with the course access code. For online courses students must request an E-Add Card via PiratesNet on the first day of the term. Only students that meet eligibility requirements may attend.
Instructors will advise students regarding their chances of being added to the class and whether or not waitlist students should return to subsequent class meetings.
Some courses must restrict who may enroll in the course. Limitations on enrollment advise if or how students can qualify for a particular course or program. These limitations can apply to courses that include public performance or intercollegiate competition where a try-out or audition is necessary. Additionally, some courses require formal admission to a particular program in order to enroll (e.g., Associate Degree Nursing Program, Respiratory Therapy Program). Limitations on enrollment are enforced by the instructor. A student will be blocked from enrolling if the student does not meet the stated limitation (see below for the procedure to challenge prerequisites).
Modesto Junior College requires satisfactory completion of all prerequisite courses prior to the student enrolling in the subsequent course, except that a student may enroll in the next level pending the outcome of the prerequisite course if the student is currently enrolled in the course at MJC. “Satisfactory completion” means a grade of A, B, C, or CR/P (pass). Grades of D, F, or NC/NP indicate that the student did not satisfactorily complete the course, and therefore, cannot use the course to fulfill the prerequisite.
Any student may challenge a prerequisite/corequisite on the grounds that:
To challenge a prerequisite/corequisite in any area, the student must begin in the division office that offers the prerequisite/corequisite by completing the Prerequisite/Corequisite Challenge Form at least five days before registration. The student must state the grounds for the challenge and present additional information that supports the challenge. A committee will review each challenge and inform the student within five days of the filing of the petition.
Upon completion of the application for admission, specific registration instructions are emailed to the student. Modesto Junior College has established Registration and Enrollment priority procedures in accordance with Title 5, Section 58106 and YCCD Board Policy 5055.
For enrollment priorities 1 through 3 the following academic standards apply: Students who are fully matriculated, and who have no more than 100-degree applicable units, and who are in good academic status. A Matriculated student is one who has completed Orientation, Placement Assessment and an Ed Plan during an Advising session.
Level 1. New and Continuing Students who are:
a) Any active member or former member of the Armed Forces of the United States, and who is a resident of California, who has received an honorable discharge, a general discharge, or an other than honorable discharge, and to any active member or former member of the State Military Reserve.
b) Current foster youth and former foster youth up to and including age 25 (Education Code Section 66025.9), or homeless youth.
c) Students participating in Disabled Student Programs and Services (DSPS), Extended Opportunity Program and Services (EOP&S), or California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs), or Tribal TANF recipients.
Level 2. New and Continuing Students meeting eligibility and participation requirements for programs designated by the colleges
Level 3. Continuing and New Students who are fully matriculated
Level 4. Continuing and New Students who:
a) Are not fully matriculated
b) Have no more than 100 degree-applicable units
c) Are in good academic status
Level 5. Dual enrolled high school students
Level 6. All Other Students are assigned Open Registration
Please note: Within each level, registration appointments are assigned based on unit completion.
New and continuing students may lose registration priority if they: 1) earn more than 100 degree applicable units at MJC, or 2) are on academic probation for 2 or more terms. If a student loses priority registration they may appeal to have priority registration reinstated. Complete the Appeal for Loss of Priority Registration and submit it to Enrollment Services.
Foster youth and former foster youth who are 24 years or less are exempt from losing registration priority based on 100 units or more or for failing to meet minimum academic standards.
An appeal process is available to all students who lose enrollment priority due to extenuating circumstances that can be verified (verified documented accident, illness, or other circumstances beyond the student's control), academic or progress improvement or a verified disability. See appeal form for additional information. To appeal students must compile and submit a Appeal for Loss of Priority Registration form by the College established deadline. The College established deadline is available on the Priority Registration website. Return the completed form to Enrollment Services.
A student may petition for issues related to specific courses (i.e. grade correction, course repeat, and withdrawal according to Title 5 regulations and YCCD Board Policy). Issues that relate to missed deadlines and graduation requirements are not petitionable. Petitions are reviewed by the Petitions Committee, Director of Admission and Records, or college designee. Petitions are available in the Enrollment Services Office, located on the first floor of the Student Services Building, East Campus or by visiting our website: Student Petitions.
Any student may challenge a prerequisite on the grounds that (1) it was not established in accordance with the District's policy; (2) it is in violation of Title 5; (3) it is discriminatory; (4) student can succeed even though student has not completed the prerequisite; or (5) student will be subject to undue delay because the prerequisite has not been made reasonably available. To challenge a prerequisite, the student must complete a Prerequisite Challenge Form (available in the division office for the discipline of the course to be challenged) and state the basis for the challenge. A committee from the division in which the class is offered will review each petition and render a decision within five working days. It is the responsibility of the student to provide information that supports the challenge.
Students who have general complaints regarding Modesto Junior College may follow the established complaint process. The student may visit the link below to access the complaint form and additional information about the process: Complaints
All students enrolled at Modesto Junior College are expected to be punctual and attend classes regularly. Instructors are encouraged to announce to their students their policies regarding excessive absences or tardiness at the beginning of the semester. When an instructor determines that a student's absences are excessive, the instructor may drop the student from the class. It is the student's responsibility to discuss anticipated and/or extensive absences with the instructor. No absence relieves the student of the responsibility of completing all work assigned. Any student who fails to attend class regularly may be dropped; however, it is the responsibility of the student to complete the course or to officially withdraw from a class. Tardiness may be treated as an absence.
Students have the right to listen, the right to decide, the right to choose, the right to reject and the right to express and defend individual beliefs. As members of the MJC community, students are encouraged to develop the capacity for critical judgment and to engage in a sustained and independent search for truth. The educational purpose of the college is best served by this freedom of expression. Students are free to take reasoned exception to the data or views offered in any course of study and to reserve judgment about matters of opinion, but they are responsible for learning the content of any course of study for which they are enrolled. Student performance will be evaluated on a broad academic basis, not on opinions or conduct in matters unrelated to academic standards.
The Academic Senate at MJC shares the original jurisdiction for conduct violations in the area of academic integrity. The Academic Senate at MJC has defined academic integrity and identified possible means for maintaining academic integrity at the College.
The grading of a student’s work rests on the fundamental idea that an instructor is evaluating a student’s own work, so cheating or plagiarism demonstrates a failure to complete this most basic requirement of any course. Thus a faculty member may administer academic consequences for violating the Academic Integrity Policy ranging from partial credit to an F on the assignment or exam. The instructor may also consider that a student’s violation of academic integrity should be a consideration for disciplinary measures. Disciplinary action for violating academic integrity is administered by the Student Discipline Officer under Board Policy 5500: Standards of Conduct.
Academic areas may develop for their faculty and students a statement of the application of the Academic Integrity Procedure in their courses; and each faculty member is encouraged to include in his/her introduction to a course:
Notification of Rights under FERPA:
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords eligible students certain rights with respect to their education records. (An “eligible student” under FERPA is a student who is 18 years of age or older or who attends a postsecondary institution at any age.) These rights include:

FERPA permits the disclosure of PII from students’ education records, without consent of the student, if the disclosure meets certain conditions found in § 99.31 of the FERPA regulations. Except for disclosures to school officials, disclosures related to some judicial orders or lawfully issued subpoenas, disclosures of directory information, and disclosures to the student, § 99.32 of FERPA regulations requires the institution to record the disclosure. Eligible students have a right to inspect and review the record of disclosures. A postsecondary institution may disclose PII from the education records without obtaining prior written consent of the student:

(AB 1088, amends Ed Code 67385.7)
Starting January 1, 2006, post-secondary education districts are required through AB 1088 to provide all incoming students with educational and preventive information about sexual violence, in addition to the sexual harassment information required by Ed Code 66281.5. During orientation and throughout the year, Modesto Junior College provides primary prevention programs and events. Modesto Junior College implements procedures to ensure that students, faculty and staff who are victims of sexual violence on or off campus receive assistance, treatment, information and resource referrals. Modesto Junior College collaborates with local Law Enforcement and advocacy agencies to provide response and services for survivors through the Title IX Office. Any sexual assault or physical abuse, including, but not limited to, rape, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, as defined by California law, or Board Policy whether committed by an employee, student, or member of the public, occurring on District property, in connection with all the academic, educational, extracurricular, athletic, and other programs of the District, whether those programs take place in the District’s facilities or at another location, or on an off-campus site or facility maintained by the District, or on grounds, is a violation of District policies and regulations, and is subject to all applicable punishment, including criminal procedures and employee or student discipline procedures. Additional information concerning Sexual Violence Prevention at Modesto Junior College can be found at: What is Title IX?
Sexual activity without mutual and expressed consent is sexual assault. Acquaintance/date rape is a serious problem on college campuses. On college campuses, 80% of the victims raped know their attackers. More than half of these rapes occur on dates. Incidents of alcohol and drug facilitated rape are increasing in college campuses. Watch your drink and watch out for your friends! What can women and men do to prevent rape?
Awareness and clear, assertive communication are the best tools for prevention.
Consent is:
Clear, knowing, affirmative, conscious and voluntary permission, through word or action, to engage in mutually agreed upon sexual activity or contact.
Since different people may experience the same interactions differently, each party is responsible for making sure that partners have provided ongoing, clear consent to engaging in any sexual activity or contact.
A person may withdraw consent at any time during sexual activity or contact through words or actions. If that happens, the other party must immediately cease the activity or contact. Pressuring another person into sexual activity can constitute coercion, which is also considered to be sexual misconduct.
Silence or the absence of resistance alone does not constitute consent. A victim is not required to resist or say “no” for an offense to be proven.
Consent to some forms of sexual activity (e.g., kissing, fondling, etc.) should not be construed as consent for other kinds of sexual activities (e.g., intercourse).Being or having been in a dating relationship with the other party does not mean that consent for sexual activity exists. Previous consent to sexual activity does not imply consent to sexual activity in the future.
To legally give consent in California, individuals must be at least 18 years old.
All employees of the college are responsible employees and are expected to report information that is reported to them to the Title IX office or Campus Safety. The college strongly encourages all members of the campus community to provide a written or verbal report regarding any incident of sexual assault to Campus Safety and Title IX. The Title IX Office, working with College counselors and Health Services staff, will make appropriate support services and referrals available to students who are victims of sexual assault.
Confidential Reporting is available through Health Services, Counseling and Title IX offices when requested.

Modesto Junior College offers an online transcript request 24/7 process via The National Student Clearinghouse. All current and former students can order an official transcript at their convenience through the MJC website. There are several types of processing options available. Check online for details on how to have transcripts sent from MJC.
Official transcripts or records earned at other institutions which have been presented for admissions or evaluations become part of the student’s permanent record and are not issued or copied for distribution.
Official transcripts will not be issued for students who have a financial obligation to the college or any other type of hold on their records. Any financial obligation to the college should be resolved in Business Services.
To comply with the student privacy laws, transcripts cannot be sent in response to telephone requests. Transcripts cannot be issued without written consent or release signed by the student with the exception of transcripts being sent directly to another educational institution.
Students are advised to submit official previous high school (once graduation date is posted) transcripts as soon as they apply for admission to MJC. These transcripts become the property of MJC and cannot be returned to the student, copied, nor forwarded to other colleges.
Official transcripts are those that are electronically transmitted from regionally accredited institutions utilizing approved electronic transmittal systems or those that are delivered in an unopened, sealed envelope from the issuing institution. Contact the Enrollment Services Office for additional information on electronic submission.
Upon receipt of outside transcripts, students will be notified via the college issued student email that their transcripts have been received. In order to have a full evaluation of a transcript, students must submit a Transfer Work Evaluation Request Form. The evaluation request form is attached to the email notification. This important evaluation provides information to the student and counselor about course work completed at other colleges. For more information, call the Evaluations Office at (209) 575-6605 or talk to your counselor.
Enrollment verifications and grade verifications will be issued upon written request to the Enrollment Services Office. Students should allow at least ten (10) working days for the processing of verifications.
To comply with student privacy laws, students must request verifications by completing and signing a Verification Request Form, available in the Enrollment Services Office.
Verifications will not be issued for students who have a financial obligation to the college or any other type of hold on their records. Any financial obligation to the college should be resolved in the Business Services Office. Photo identification is also required to release the verification. For additional information on requesting MJC verifications, contact the Enrollment Services Office at (209) 575-6853.
The Board of Trustees of the Yosemite Community College District has adopted a policy which permits a student to repeat certain courses. In these cases, a course is designated as repeatable in the college catalog, and a student may take the course and then repeat it the allowed number of times and earn college credit for each completion. These courses have been approved by the Curriculum Committee as repeatable. Courses without that designation may not be repeated. Repeatable courses may not be repeated to improve a substandard grade.
A student may repeat a course designated as a repeatable course including variable credit open-entry/open-exit courses up to the maximum number of allowed repetitions for that course.
No more than two substandard grades may be alleviated within the allowable repeat limits for a repeatable course. If a course is repeated two or more times, the first two substandard grades will be excluded in calculating the student’s GPA.
Course repetition will not be allowed in a repeatable activity course beyond the maximum number of allowed repetitions for the course, which may be no more than three (3) semesters.
A student will be permitted to retake a non-repeatable course in which a substandard grade or “W” was earned one time without a petition.
Substandard Grade - a grade of “D,” “F,” “NP,” or “NC.”
If a student has earned a second substandard grade or “W” in a course, the student must agree and sign a Third Enrollment form to be released to register for the third repetition of a course. Student must see counselor to complete a Third Enrollment.
Each non-repeatable course in which a substandard grade has been earned may be repeated two times only for grade alleviation unless such repetition is provided by District policy. The most recent completion (grade, grade points, and units) will replace the earlier course, even if the more recent completion results in a lower grade.
For courses that are not repeatable in which a student has received a satisfactory grade, “A”, “B”, “C”, “CR”, or “P” may not be repeated unless in accordance with YCCD Board Policy 4225.
Students may submit a “Course Repeat Petition” under certain circumstances as provided by Title V, California Code of Regulations and Yosemite Community College Board Policy. Petitions are reviewed by the Petitions Committee, Director of Admission and Records, or designee.
Students may petition to repeat a course in which a satisfactory grade was received or when the number of allowable attempts has been exhausted in accordance with YCCD Board Policy 4225.
Students can find more information about the petition process here: Student Petitions
MJC does not allow a student to enroll in two or more sections of the same credit courses at the same time.
MJC does not allow a student to enroll in two courses that overlap (time-wise) unless the following requirements are met:
The student must provide sound justification for the overlap, other than mere scheduling convenience.
An appropriate college official must review the justification and approve the enrollment.
The instructor of record allowing the overlap must collect documentation each week that shows how the student made up the time caused by the overlap.
Attendance is important. Students are expected to attend the first class meeting of each class in which they register. Instructors may drop students who do not attend the first class meeting and give the seat to a student from the waitlist. All students enrolled at Modesto Junior College are expected to be punctual and attend classes regularly. Regular attendance in class and lab sessions is an obligation assumed by every student at the time of registration. Instructors are encouraged to announce to their students at the beginning of the semester their policies regarding excessive absences or tardiness.
Many instructors link their class syllabi to their directory information on PiratesNet. It is the student’s responsibility to discuss with the instructor any anticipated and/or extensive absences. Tardiness may be considered an absence. No absence relieves the student of the responsibility to complete all work assigned. When an instructor determines that a student’s absences are excessive, the instructor may drop the student from the class. However, it is the responsibility of the student to complete the course or to officially withdraw from the class.
Students are responsible for officially dropping classes. Withdrawals may be processed using PiratesNet or in the Enrollment Services Office by completing a Drop Form. Each student’s printed schedule (available on PiratesNet) includes course drop deadlines.
No notation (grade or symbol) will be posted on a student’s academic record if a course is dropped by the last day to drop without a “W” which is the end of the second week of the semester for a full-term course or within 20% of a short-term or Summer course. The last day to drop without a “W” deadline is posted on the course syllabus and the class schedule each semester.
Students may drop or withdraw from a course by the 14th week (or by 75% of the class, whichever comes first) for full-term courses, short term, or Summer courses and receive a “W” for withdrawal symbol on their academic record. The last day to drop with a “W” deadline is posted on the course syllabus and the class schedule each semester.
An Excused Withdrawal (EW) is an option for students who can drop a course due to a specified reason beyond the control of the student and affects the student’s ability to complete the course. Per Title IV the Excused Withdrawal conditions are as follows:
Please Note: An “EW” will be notated on the transcripts if the petition is approved and the student will not have this attempt counted for Academic purposes but the student is not eligible for a refund for the course.
To receive an “EW” the student would need to complete a General Student Petition and provide appropriate documentation of their circumstances.
A student who withdraws from a course because he/she is an active or reserve member in the military service who has received military orders compelling withdrawal from course(s) shall receive no notation or an “MW” notation which shall not be counted for the permitted number of withdrawals or for progress probation or dismissal. The student must complete a student petition and present military orders to the Enrollment Services Office for proper notation.
Effective Summer 2012, students are limited to receiving no more than two substandard grades from any course taken within the Yosemite Community College District. Since this state regulation includes courses taken at Columbia and/or Modesto, substandard grades earned in courses that have been determined to be equivalent to each other (see ‘Intradistrict Course Equivalencies Between Modesto Junior College and Columbia College) count toward the second limitation.
Each non-repeatable course in which a “W” has been earned may be repeated for a maximum of two times. The student may earn no more than three (3) withdrawals in the same course.
Continuing Student: Has enrolled in one or more classes within the past year. Registration: Continuing students are automatically assigned registration dates and times each semester.

Of the 12 units, at least 9 shall be attempted in courses counting toward remediation, career technical education/certificate courses, associate degree requirements, transfer/general education, and/or lower division theoretical major preparation courses as defined by the college catalog and/or articulation agreements and be consistent with the student athlete’s educational plan. To be eligible and remain eligible in intercollegiate athletics competition a student athlete has to successfully complete at least 6 units during the preceding academic term in which the student is enrolled as a full-time student with a cumulative 2.0 GPA beginning with and including the units taken during the first semester of competition. To be eligible for the second season of that sport, a minimum of 24 units must be successfully completed. The 24 unit count begins with and includes the units taken during the first semester of competition for that sport and must be successfully completed prior to the beginning of the semester of the second season of sport .In order to be eligible for competition, the student athlete must have a comprehensive individual educational plan on file, by the following dates: October 15 for those student athletes whose first competition, in any sport, occurs during the fall academic term; March 1 for those student athletes whose first competition, in any sport, occurs during the spring academic term.

* Grade points not included in student's overall grade point average (GPA).
To graduate and to transfer to other collegiate institutions, the student must have at least a C average (2.0), based on the total grade points earned in college degree applicable courses completed at MJC and other colleges divided by the total number of units attempted. Students planning to transfer to a four-year university should discuss options with a counselor.
A course or unit attempted is any course or unit which, in any semester, appears on the official transcript. Courses with an Incomplete (I grade), a Withdrawal (W grade), Pass (P grade) or No Pass (NP grade) do not count in the grade point average. All other credit courses attempted are included in the average.
A student is in good standing academically when the cumulative MJC grade point average is 2.0, or better, and the student has completed fewer than 50% of the overall units attempted with grades of “W,” “I,” “NP,” and “NC.”
Graduating students achieving a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or higher in all degree-applicable coursework, including transfer work, will graduate with honors. This honor will be indicated on the transcript and the diploma.
To be eligible for the President’s List (formerly Dean’s List) the student must complete a minimum of 12 degree-applicable units in a semester at MJC and have a grade point average (GPA) of 3.5 or better with no grade lower than a C. The student receives a personal letter of commendation.
A 2.0 minimum grade point average (GPA) is required to be in good academic standing and for graduation. To calculate a student’s GPA, follow these steps:
Note: Exclude W’s, NP’s, P’s from the calculation as well as courses that were repeated and where academic renewal was granted. These courses will be signified by “R” and “AR” respectively.
To conform to the provision of Section 55025 of the California Administrative Code, Title 5, the determination of the student’s grade by the instructor shall be final in the absence of mistake, fraud, bad faith, or incompetency.
Modesto Junior College policies on challenging a final grade are as follows:
An Incomplete (I) grade will be given only in cases in which course work could not be completed because of illness or for a cause judged as unavoidable by the instructor. Failure to complete regular course work by the end of the semester will not be reason for giving a grade of Incomplete (I). When a faculty member approves a grade of Incomplete (I), he or she:
The amount of time that a student may have to make up the work cannot exceed one year. If the student has not completed the conditions for removal, the Incomplete grade (I) will electronically revert to the ‘’grade in lieu of removal” assigned by the faculty member for the “I” grade.
A student may enroll in most courses with the option of one of two grading systems: (1) letter grade (A-F) or (2) Pass/No Pass (P/NP). The deadline to file P/NP for a full-term or short-term class is 30% of the class. If 30% falls on a weekend or holiday, the deadline to file P/NP forms in the Enrollment Services Office is the preceding business day. (Forms are available in the Enrollment Services Office or online at Forms. Unless the course otherwise states “GR’’ only or “P/NP” only, all courses are offered with a choice of letter grade or P/NP option. Once the P/NP option is selected by the student and the 30% deadline has passed the choice cannot be rescinded.
Because transfer institutions often do not accept P/NP grades in a student’s major, the college recommends that courses in the major be taken for a letter grade.
Instructors are required to give all students who complete the course a letter grade (A-F), regardless of student choice, unless the course is offered only for P/NP grading.
None of the units attempted under the P/NP grading option are used in computing the student’s grade point average. However, units attempted for which (NP) is recorded are counted in determining progress probation and progress dismissal.
Fourteen units of P/NP may be used toward graduation. An evaluation on a “P/NP” basis may not later be changed to a letter grade, nor may the reverse occur (Section 55022 Title 5). CAUTION: Some schools may consider “NP” the same as “F”.
“Satisfactory completion of” a course means that the student has earned a letter grade of A, B, C, or P. All prerequisite courses at MJC must be satisfactorily completed with a C or better grade.
On September 19, 2016, the Board of Governors approved the changes to California Code of Regulations, Title 5, section 55023 Academic Record Symbols and Grade Point Average. This revision will add a new evaluative symbol of “SP”, defined as Satisfactory Progress towards completion of the course (used for noncredit courses only and is not supplanted by any other symbol). The SP grade provides students with a tangible measure of their progress that allows them to monitor their progress.
Beginning in the Summer 2004 term, courses in which substandard grades of “D”, “F”, or “No Pass” were earned by the student, are allowed to be repeated only once. Students will be blocked from registering a third time for the same course if two substandard grades (D, F, or NP) have been recorded in previous grading periods. A student who wishes to enroll in a course for a third time will need to complete a Request for Third Enrollment Form with a counselor. Third enrollment petitions are available in the Counseling Office and must be filed no later than the end of the first week of that term in which the class is to be repeated.
When a course in which a D grade was received is repeated, the student will receive the new grade and grade points earned but will receive no additional units for the course.
When a course in which A, F or NP grade was received is repeated, the student will be given both the units and grade points earned.
Courses in which the student has earned a C or better (including P) may not be repeated for improvement of grade.
A student shall be placed on academic probation if he or she has attempted a minimum of 12 semester units of work at the college and has earned a cumulative grade point average of less than 2.0 (“C”).
A student who is on academic probation shall be subject to dismissal for one calendar year if the student has earned a cumulative grade point average at the college of less than 2.0 in all units attempted in each of three (3) consecutive semesters.
A student on academic probation shall be removed from probation when the student’s accumulated grade point average of courses taken at the college is 2.0 or higher.
A student shall be placed on progress probation if he or she has enrolled in a total of at least 12 semester units at the college and the percentage of all units in which the student has enrolled, for which entries of “W”, “I” and “NP” were recorded reaches or exceeds fifty percent (50%).
A student who is on progress probation shall be subject to dismissal for one calendar year if the cumulative percentage of units in which the student has been enrolled at the college for which entries of “W”, “I”, and “NP” are recorded in at least three (3) consecutive semesters reaches fifty percent (50%) or more.
A student on progress probation shall be removed from probation when the percentage of units taken at the college in the categories of “W”, “I”, and “NP” drops below fifty percent (50%).
Board Policy 4070 allows a student to take a course without receiving credit, a grade, or a formal record of the class. A course audit is used when a student wants to review a course taken previously and obtained a passing grade. This is available only to students who have met the repeat limitation on an existing course. Students must wait until the first day of classes to process an application for course audit. To start the Course Audit process the student should visit the Enrollment Services Office in the Student Services Building, Room 102 and obtain an application.
Modesto Junior College regulations permit the removal of coursework completed at MJC which is substandard and not reflective of a student’s present scholastic ability and level of performance. The grades will be disregarded in the computation of grade point averages.
Substandard coursework completed at MJC (grades of ‘’D’’, ‘’F’’, "FW", “NP”, and/or "NC") may be disregarded under the following conditions:
A period of at least one year has elapsed since the work to be disregarded was completed.
The coursework to be disregarded does not include courses previously used to establish eligibility for transfer, graduation, or certificates of achievement.
The student has completed at MJC or another accredited college, since the coursework to be disregarded was completed, at least 15-29 semester units with at least a 3.0 GPA, 30-44 semester units with at least a 2.5 GPA, or 45 or more semester units with at least a 2.0 GPA.
You can only academically renew the most recent attempt in a course which has a substandard grade (D, F, FW, NP, and/or NC).
Up to 24 units of coursework may be eliminated from consideration in the cumulative GPA.
Academic renewals are irreversible.
Students wishing to use the academic renewal procedure should submit an Application for Academic Renewal. Applications may be emailed or are available at the Enrollment Services Office or online at Forms.
Note: When work is disregarded under the conditions above, the permanent academic record shall be annotated in such a manner that all coursework remains legible, ensuring a complete academic history.
Units awarded for a course depend on the number of lecture, lab, and lecture/lab hours in the course. Typically, 17.5 hours of lecture with 35 additional hours of outside work, or 52.5 hours of lab produce one unit of credit. A student’s weekly workload for a full-semester course will be roughly three times the number of units of credit to be earned. So a typical 3-unit lecture course requires nine hours per week: 3 hours of lecture and 6 hours of outside work.
A typical student load is 12 to 16 units of work per semester. A heavier or lighter study load may be recommended by a student’s advisor or counselor. In no case will a student be enrolled in more than 18 (12 units for summer) units of work without approval of an MJC counselor. Students on probation or dismissed status may be limited to the work load judged most suitable for them. Petition forms for excess units can be obtained in Counseling Center.
Except as specifically exempted, students may not receive credit for more than 30 units of remedial coursework in math (MATH), English (ENGL), and reading (READ) courses numbered 1-49.
The following students will be exempt from the limit:
Students enrolled in one or more courses of English Language Instruction for College (ELIC).
Students identified by a college in the district as having a learning disability.
Students may be granted a waiver to the limitation upon petition to a college in the district. Waivers will be granted only when the student shows significant and measurable progress toward the development of skills necessary for college-level courses. Such waivers will be given only for a specified period of time or for a specified number of units. Students who are blocked from enrollment because of excessive remedial units should contact the Counseling Center, Student Services Building, Room 226.
Lower division credit will be accepted from institutions which are regionally accredited by one of the accrediting associations listed below. These associations have been recognized as reliable authorities ensuring that the institutions that they accredit meet minimum levels of educational quality. MJC recognizes those institutions that are either fully accredited or listed as a candidate for accreditation:
Veterans and reservists who have completed basic training will receive three units of Health Education credit and two units of Physical Education credit upon presentation of their separation papers to the Veterans Services Office. Credit for military schools will be granted if it is recommended in the “Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services.’’ Up to 18 units of credit may be awarded for USAFI (United States Armed Forces Institute) courses.
Students are responsible for providing official documentation of preVeterans and reservists who have completed basic training will receive three units of Health Education credit and two units of Physical Education credit upon presentation of their separation papers to the Veterans Services Office. Credit for military schools will be granted if it is recommended in the “Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services.’’ Up to 18 units of credit may be awarded for USAFI (United States Armed Forces Institute) courses. vices Office will accept hand-carried transcripts that are in an unopened and sealed envelope. Transcripts can also be mailed directly to the MJC Enrollment Services Office. Transcripts submitted become the property of MJC and cannot be returned to the student, copied, nor forwarded to other colleges.
Students must submit a Transfer Work Evaluation Request if they plan to use any completed courses from other colleges to satisfy MJC graduation, general education, prerequisites and/or core matriculation requirements (assessment). It is recommended that students submit official transcripts to MJC at least six weeks prior to their registration date to ensure their request is processed in a timely manner.
GENEX 000 courses appear on the transcript to indicate transfer courses for which you have been granted transfer credit, without Modesto Junior College equivalent course credits. If you believe a course placed in GENEX 000 is equivalent to a specific MJC course you may contact the appropriate division office and submit a Course Equivalency Petition. At the time of submission you must also include a course description, syllabus and/or any other supporting documentation to substantiate your request.
The Evaluations Office does not evaluate international transcripts. Foreign transcripts must be evaluated by a National Associate in Credential Evaluation Services (NACES) affiliated foreign transcript service before they are submitted to MJC. The cost of the evaluation is the responsibility of the student. A maximum of 30 units can be accepted through this process. The Enrollment Services Office has a list of transcript services.
What must be included in a foreign transcript evaluation?
It is recommended that you meet with an academic counselor or the division offices that offer the courses before requesting transcript evaluation to help determine whether it is worthwhile to pay a transcript evaluation fee, depending on the selected program of study and your previous coursework.
Requests for equivalencies should be made directly to the MJC division offices that offer the courses. You should submit as much information about the classes as possible. When requesting equivalency from a division, students should include:
Only lower division courses will be considered for equivalency by the MJC divisions. All grades of C or better will be converted to a Pass grade. These units will not be counted toward the student's GPA. Please note: Foreign coursework will NOT be used to satisfy the following items:
Possessing a foreign degree comparable to a bachelor’s degree or higher does not satisfy the general education, competency requirements, and guidance and activities requirement for an associate degree at MJC without approved course equivalencies.

Student Financial Services administers a comprehensive student financial aid program designed to assist students in meeting college costs. The amount of financial aid awarded varies from student to student, depending on the individual’s need and resources. Funds are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. Financial aid awards are based on calculated financial need as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the California Dream Act Application (CADAA). Students may complete the FAFSA or the CADAA at California Student Aid Commission. All applications for financial assistance programs; i.e., work compensation, nursing loans, loans, grants, scholarships, special funds, subsidies, prizes, etc., will be considered without regard to race, color, national origin, gender or disability.
To be considered for federal financial aid a student must complete the FAFSA. Eligibility is determined by the following:
Students who meet AB540 criteria may now apply for state funded financial aid such as community college fee waivers California College Promise Grant (CCPG) formerly known as the Board of Governors Fee Waiver (BOGW), Cal Grants, Chafee Grants, and institutional financial assistance by completing the California Dream Act Application at California Student Aid Commission.
Students must be enrolled in an approved course of study leading to degree, eligible certificate, or transfer to a four-year institution.
The Federal Pell Grant provides assistance to eligible students to help meet college expenses. Students must file a FAFSA to have financial need determined by a formula that is applied uniformly to all applicants throughout the nation. The Student Financial Services Office calculates the actual award amount based on the information provided on the FAFSA, whether the student is enrolled full-time or part-time and the cost of attendance.
Students are limited to 6 years (12 full-time semesters) full-time Pell grant, or 600% Lifetime Eligibility Used (Pell LEU). Students may view their Pell LEU at Federal Student Aid.
The FSEOG is designed to assist students with exceptional financial need by supplementing other financial aid sources. Students must be enrolled in at least 6 units to be considered for this grant. Funding for this program is extremely limited.
Federal Work Study provides part-time employment for students who demonstrate financial need. The Student Financial Services Office will assist in placing students in jobs on campus. Students must not work until an official agreement is on file with the Student Financial Services Office and may not work more than 20 hours per week. Pay matches the state minimum wage. Work-study hourly wages are paid directly to the student to help with educational expenses. Students must be enrolled in at least 6 units to be considered for this program. Funding for this program is extremely limited.
Bureau of Indian Affairs Grants are provided to help eligible Native American students. Contact your Tribal Agency or the Student Financial Services Office for more information.
A student loan is money for college that a student borrows that must be repaid with interest. Student loans are broken into two categories: federal (Stafford, Perkins, and Plus Loans) and private loans from lending agencies. Student loans should be the last option after grants and scholarships when applying for money to pay for educational expenses.
The Financial Aid Office does not award student loans as part of the “award package” in our initial review for financial aid eligibility. Students who are interested in borrowing a federal student loan will be required to submit a completed Direct Loan Application Form to the Student Financial Services Office. Students must be enrolled in at least 6 units to receive this grant.

Students who receive TANF/CalWORKs, SSI/SSP, GA, are a dependent of a deceased/disabled veteran, or are considered low income maybe eligible for the California College Promise Grant (CCPG) which waives the enrollment fee (per unit price). Students may apply either by completing the CCPG application available in the Financial Aid Office on the college website, or by submitting the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or Dream Act Application.
Students will lose eligibility for the CCPG, if they do not maintain a 2.0 GPA for two consecutive primary terms (fall/spring) or do not successfully complete half (50%) of the units attempted in that period. Foster youth are exempt from this policy. Students are encouraged to meet with a counselor regularly to mitigate potential loss of the fee waiver. Students who are disqualified may submit an appeal for possible reinstatement.
Cal Grants are state-funded grants, which are awarded to eligible students to help meet college expenses. Students must file a FAFSA or CADAA application and have their GPA submitted to the California Student Aid Commission (CSAC). The application filing deadline is March 2nd preceding the award year. A second deadline of September 2nd is available for students on a competitive basis who are planning to attend a community college during the award year.
Cal Grant A assists with tuition and fees for California residents at qualifying institutions offering baccalaureate degree programs. Awards may be held in reserve while attending a community college. There are two types of Cal Grant A awards – Entitlement and Competitive. Every current high school senior and or previous year high school graduate who has at least a 3.0 GPA, meets the financial and academic requirements and applies on time (March 2nd deadline) will receive a Cal Grant A Entitlement Award. Other eligible students who have at least a 3.0 GPA may apply for a Cal Grant A Competitive Award.

Cal Grant C provides assistance with costs for occupational and vocational programs. Selections are based on financial need, vocational aptitude and enrollment in an eligible program at a California community or independent college or vocational school that is at least four months long. Students must be enrolled in at least 6 units to receive this grant.
The Chafee Grant Program awards grants of up to $5,000 annually to foster youth and former foster youth to use for college or career and technical training.

Students who qualified for the first year may qualify for a second year, as long as they meet Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) and maintained full-time status each term.
Funding from financial aid resources is limited to the completion of a college degree or exceeding the maximum time frame.
MAXIMUM TIME FRAME: All financial aid students are expected to complete their program of study within 150% of the published length of the program.
Students pursuing a 60-unit AA/AS degree, 4-year transfer, or vocational programs are expected to complete their programs by the time they attempt 90 units.
Students whose educational goal is to earn a Certificate of Achievement are expected to complete their program by the time they attempt 45 units.
Students exceeding these limits may file an appeal if extenuating circumstances have prevented them from completing their program within these limitations.
Financial aid recipients must adhere to satisfactory academic progress standards — maintain a minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA and complete at least 67% of all attempted units. The student’s satisfactory academic progress will be reviewed upon the student’s initial application for financial aid and at the end of each semester.
Grades of F, FW, NP, IP, I and RD are not counted as satisfactory and will not be counted toward total units completed. Grades of EW (Excused Withdraw) do not affect students’ financial aid academic progress evaluation. Bridged classes or open-entry/open-exit classes (IP) will be counted as eligible units for financial aid only during the first semester the class is attempted.
Students who have not met all satisfactory standards will be placed on Financial Aid Warning. Students who have not met all satisfactory academic progress standards at the end of the warning period will be placed on Financial Aid Disqualification. This status will remain in effect until all requirements for satisfactory academic progress are achieved. Under no circumstances will students be paid retroactively for any ineligible semesters.
The Appeal Form is available on the website during application periods and must be complete if such a review is desired. Under certain conditions, Students placed on Disqualification may file an appeal for consideration of reinstatement of financial aid eligibility. The appeal and acceptance dates are available on the financial aid website.
To file an appeal, students are required to participate on an online Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) counseling session, complete the appeal form and attend an Appeal Workshop in order to submit a request.
Denied Appeals:
Students whose appeal is denied have the option to have their appeal reviewed by the appeals committee. Decisions made by the committee are final. For appeal deadlines and additional information visit the financial aid website.
Per federal regulations, any student who receives financial aid and then withdraws from all classes prior to completing 60% of the semester/program and/or course will be required to repay a portion of any unearned federal financial aid. If the student has received more than earned, notification will be sent as to the amount of aid to be returned, the due date, and the process. If the student has not yet received the full amount earned, notification will be sent regarding a post-withdrawal disbursement the student may receive, the response date, and the process. Federal regulations only allow students to receive financial aid for classes they actually attend. Students who receive financial aid for classes they drop before the first day of class or that they otherwise never attended must return those funds.
There is no appeal process. Federal regulations do not allow a college to make any exceptions to the Return of Title IV requirements. Students who do not repay the funds owed are disqualified from eligibility for federal student aid at any college or university.
Students considering dropping classes should first consult with the Student Financial Services Office to understand the implications of a complete withdrawal.

Eligibility is determined by length of service and entitles the veteran to a percentage of the following: Cost of tuition and fees, monthly housing allowance, and a yearly stipend for books and supplies up to $1,000.
A child or spouse of a service-connected deceased or 100-percent – permanently disabled veteran may be eligible for VA educational assistance. The marital status of a dependent child is not a factor in determining eligibility. Benefits may be used until the dependent has reached the age of twenty-six or for eight years from the date that eligibility is determined, whichever is later. Reservists Montgomery GI Bill® (Chapter 1606) Enlistment or extension for six years of reserve duty after July 1, 1985 is required. This program does not require a contribution by the service member, but the reservist must be actively drilling.
The Veterans Administration (VA) requires students on educational benefits to maintain satisfactory progress. If the student on VA benefit falls below 2.0 grade point average (GPA) over two semesters, this is reported to the VA as unsatisfactory progress and benefits are suspended. To reinstate benefits, students must complete one semester with a 2.0 or higher GPA. Modesto Junior College is required by law to have and to enforce standards of progress and conduct in order for their programs to be approved for VA benefits.
At Modesto Junior College in order to be assigned priority registration, veterans, reservists, and active duty members must complete the college’s orientation, Math/English placement, student educational plan, and provide a copy of their DD 214, NOBE, or military orders to the MJC Veterans Service Office.
A Veteran who lives in the state of California in which the institution of higher learning is located (regardless of his/her formal state of residence) and enrolls at MJC within three years of discharge from a period of active duty service of 90 days or more with a character of discharge other than bad conduct or dishonorable.
A spouse or child using transferred benefits who lives in the state of California in which the institution of higher learning is located (regardless of his/her formal state of residence) and enrolls at MJC within three years of the transferor’s discharge from a period of active duty service of 90 days or more with a character of discharge other than bad conduct or dishonorable.
A spouse or child using benefits under the Marine Gunnery Sergeant John David Fry Scholarship who lives in the state of California in which the institution of higher learning is located (regardless of his/her formal state of residence) and enrolls at MJC within three years of the Service member’s death in the line of duty following a period of active duty service of 90 days or more.
Veterans are required to notify MJC Veterans Service Office when they stop attending class, withdraw from the college, or add or drop a class. Such changes should be reported immediately after completing the add/drop procedure. Failure to comply with this regulation will be grounds for decertification of VA benefits.
A student who withdraws from a course because he/she is an active or reserve member in the military service who has received military orders compelling withdrawal from course(s) shall receive no notation or an “MW” notation which shall not be counted for the permitted number of withdrawals or for progress probation or dismissal. The student must complete a student petition and present military orders to the Enrollment Services Office for proper notation.
The Chapter 33 housing allowance is paid if the rate of pursuit is more than 50%. The Department of Veterans Affairs calculates the rate of pursuit by dividing the benefit-eligible credit hours/units (or credit hour equivalent) enrolled by the number of credit hours/units considered to be full-time by the school. The resulting percentage is the student’s rate of pursuit. Please visit U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs for additional information and updates.
Veterans Administration eligibility uses the following definition:
Full-time = 12 or more units
Three-fourth benefits = 9 through 11 units
One-half benefits = 6 through 8 units
Any change in veteran status, whether it be increase, decrease, or complete withdrawal, must be brought to the attention of the MJC Veterans’ Service Office immediately.
Work-Study – Montgomery (Chapter 30), Post 9/11 (Chapter 33), Selective Reserves (Chapter 1606), Dependent Education Assistance Program (Chapter 35), VEAP (Chapter 32), and Vocational Rehabilitation (Chapter 31) students who are receiving VA educational benefits of at least 3/4 time are eligible to apply for the VA work-study program. The program pays at the state’s minimum wage per hour. Work-study positions are also available at the Vets Center in Modesto and many VA facilities. If you are interested in the work-study program, stop by the Veterans’ Office for more details.
Cal-Vet Fee Wavier ‑ The California Veterans Dependents Educational Assistance Program offers educational assistance to children and spouses of disabled or deceased veterans. Dependents of POWS and MIAS, widow/ers of deceased veterans, and wives of 100%-disabled veterans may also be eligible. Ask for more information in the MJC Veterans Services Office or at CalVet.
Attention Students Using VA Educational Benefits:
The Department of Veteran Affairs will no longer pay the Student Representation Fee and Student Activity Fee for students using VA Educational Benefits. Please be advised that students are responsible for paying both optional fees. For more information please contact the MJC Veterans Services Office at 209-575-6670.

MJC students usually choose between two educational objectives—to receive specialized job training, or to complete some college-level coursework at MJC and then transfer to a college or university to earn a baccalaureate (bachelor’s) degree.MJC counselors help students determine what pathway is best for them, and how to successfully progress on those pathways.
Guidance courses offered by the Counseling Center are designed to assist students in developing Educational Plans. A Guidance course is also required for graduation. All students should have an Educational Plan by the time they have earned 15 units.
An Educational Plan is developed with a counselor to identify courses and support services that will be required or recommended to achieve your goals. It is to your advantage to develop an Educational Plan as soon as possible.If a student is undecided as to his/her goal, a counselor can provide timely and updated information to help the student choose a realistic goal. Educational Plans are now created online via Starfish.
Regardless of what you choose to accomplish at MJC, you can take proof of your hard work with you in an award. MJC offers awards that evidence educational achievement in an array of academic or vocational areas. I

*Upon completion of the CSU-GE or IGETC, you are eligible for a Certificate of Achievement in CSU-GE or IGETC from MJC. For more information, visit the Evaluations Office, Student Services Building, Room 102.
†Successful completion of CSU-GE or IGETC will also demonstrate you have met or exceeded state-required competencies for reading, writing, and mathematics.
This general education breadth pattern allows Modesto Junior College students who plan to transfer to a California State University (CSU) to complete lower-division general education requirements for baccalaureate degree at all CSU campuses. The pattern has six disciplinary “areas” (A-F) requiring at least 39-units of coursework. CSU transfer also requires completion of a History, Constitution, and American Ideals requirement that may be completed at MJC and is included in this pattern. A grade of C- or higher is required in Areas A1, A2, A3, and B4 for admission to the CSU System, but individual CSU campuses may accept “pass” grades for the other areas. “Certification” of CSU-GE is recommended for transfer to CSU but can vary by major. Students pursuing “High unit” majors are discouraged from completing all GE requirements. For these reasons, students are strongly encouraged to work with a counselor or enroll in a Guidance course to complete an educational plan and review critical information on transferring to CSU.
Complete one course in each category for a total of nine (9) units. Each course must be completed with at least a grade of C/P/CR.
Complete nine (9) units: one course from B1, B2, and B4. One B1 or B2 course must include a laboratory component (*) to satisfy requirements for B3. The course completed in B4 must be completed with a C/P/CR.

An additional six (6) units are needed to complete the California State University History, Constitution, and American Ideals requirement for the BA/BS degree. This can be done by completing Group a & b combined, or Group c.
IGETC is a general education pattern that, upon full or “partial” (all but two courses) certification, will satisfy all or most lower-division general education requirements at California State University (CSU) campuses, most University of California (UC) campuses/majors, and some private/independent or out-of state universities. However, it is not the only way to fulfill the lower-division GE requirements for baccalaureate degree prior to transfer to a university. Part of the transfer process will require GE breadth certification. All courses must be passed with a grade of “C” or higher. IGETC certification is not recommended for “high-unit” majors. Complete a Guidance class or meet with a counselor to accurately plan coursework to satisfy transfer admission and upper-division major requirements.
For transfer to CSU, complete 3 courses, 1 from each group. For transfer to UC, complete 2 courses, one from Group 1A, and one from Group 1B.
Complete 1 course (3 semester units)
Complete 3 courses (9 semester units). At least one course from 3A and one course from 3B, with an additional course from 3A or 3B.

Complete at least 2 courses (7 semester units). One from 5A and one from 5B. To satisfy 5C, one course from 5A or 5B must be taken as a laboratory.
Students must demonstrate proficiency in a language other than English (LOTE) equal to two years or the second level of high school instruction.
Students who did not meet the LOTE requirement in high school may fulfill IGETC Area 6A by completing a college course/courses, or by demonstrating proficiency in one of several other methods
In a high school where the language of instruction is English, completion of the second level of high school coursework in a language other than English with a letter grade of “C-” or better in the second semester of the second year.
In an institution where the language of instruction is not English, formal schooling through the sixth-grade level or higher. Appropriate documentation must be presented to substantiate the language of instruction. If an official sealed transcript cannot be obtained from an international institution, an unofficial or opened transcript may be used, as appropriate.
Satisfactory completion of one of the MJC courses listed below with a letter grade of “C” (2.0 out of 4.0 scale) or higher (or a “Credit/Pass” grade where passing is equivalent to 2.00 or higher), in each course. Usually one semester of college work in a language other than English is equivalent to two years of high school-level instruction. The equivalency is usually stated in the college catalog.
A Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center (DLIFLC) language other than English course which is indicated as passed with a “C” or higher on the official transcript.
Subject test in languages other than English with minimum scores as indicated below. If taken before May 1995 use 1st score / If taken after May 1995 use 2nd score

Determinations must be posted on a transcript indicating units, course title and grade or on official college letterhead of the institution granting proficiency stating that the student has mastered proficiency in the language equivalent to two years of high school language.
If an achievement test is not available, a faculty member associated with a United States regionally accredited institution of higher education can verify a student’s competency. The institution must provide a document on college letterhead asserting that the student has mastered proficiency in the language equivalent to two years/second level of high school instruction.
The CSU US History, Constitution, and American Ideals requirement is not required for IGETC, but is a requirement for baccalaureate degree at CSU. Some courses below also appear in IGETC: 3B and/or 4F. However, individual CSU campuses determine whether AI courses can be used to satisfy both CSU AI and IGETC 3B or 4F. In the absence of knowledge of a CSU campus policy for using a course to satisfy both areas, MJC will certify IGETC using courses in IGETC 3B/4F and the CSU AI requirement.
IGETC courses are locally proposed by the MJC Curriculum Committee, then approved by a statewide GE Review Committee. For more information on IGETC course approval, See IGETC Standards 2.1 (2020).
* Students who possess a baccalaureate or higher degree completed at a regionally accredited college or university will have satisfied general education and competency requirements including guidance and activities for AA or AS Degree.
‡ Students who meet requirements for Associate Degrees for Transfer (AA-T or AA-T) will be exempt from the Guidance and Activities requirements.
** Equivalent courses are evaluated and identified through the Evaluations Office within Enrollment Services on the East Campus
† Coursework used to clear the mathematics competency must have been completed within the last 10 years, and be verifiable on official transcripts. Students with older transcripts must demonstrate mathematics competence through the options listed above.

If you are a highly motivated or an accomplished student and would like your education at MJC to prepare you to compete well at the highest university levels, then the MJC Honors Program may be for you. This program is meant to further promote excellence by honing the skills and talents of our intellectually gifted, uniquely creative, and academically committed students. Honors students are challenged and guided by honors faculty to delve deeper, think more critically, and argue more persuasively. These students also have the opportunity to meet other gifted students and experience the spirit and encouragement of such a like-mindedly determined cohort.
Besides the experience of an enhanced education and being better prepared to compete at the university level, students who graduate from the program will gain any number of perks through enhanced transfer agreements.
Honors units are units of coursework that you complete in order to demonstrate that you are academically competent in strategically challenging courses. Honors units are not additional units to be completed, but rather overlap your existing educational plan. You will work with a counselor and the Honors Program Coordinator to select appropriate courses.
Many instructors at MJC are willing to give you individual attention by enhancing a course to be at honors level. Once an agreement is established this is referred to as an honors contract. Once you are accepted into the honors program, you will be expected to initiate contracts with instructors. A list of participating instructors is available from the Honors Program Coordinator. Honors contracts may only be established in 3 unit or more courses numbered 100-299 (transferable).
Honors work completed will be noted on your official MJC transcript.
Transfer is the process through which students move between institutions of higher education, and articulation is the process by which MJC courses are approved to transfer for credit (to varying degrees) at other institutions.
When the word “articulation” is used in education, it often has different meanings and connotations depending on the setting. Articulation at MJC refers to courses and the process of developing a formal, written and published agreement that identifies courses (or sequences of courses) on the MJC campus that are comparable or acceptable in lieu of specific requirements at another campus, often called the “transfer” or “target institution.” Successful completion of an articulated course assures the student and the faculty that the student has taken the appropriate course, received the necessary instruction and preparation, and that similar outcomes can be assured enabling progression to the next level of instruction at the transfer institution.
Students who transfer to Modesto Junior College from another California Community College will automatically be granted General Education (GE) reciprocity. GE reciprocity means that any GE requirements satisfied at the previous community college will be “passed along” or used to satisfy the same GE area requirement for Modesto Junior College. This policy applies to MJC-GE, CSU-GE and IGETC breadth patterns.
The Higher Education Consortium of Central California (HECCC), established in 1981, is a partnership of two universities and four community colleges committed to the advancement of academic excellence within a distinctly diverse region. Through dynamic and evolving collaborations, member colleges combine resources, share intellectual capital, facilitate innovative projects, promote professional development, and increase equitable access to higher education. HECCC members include California State University, Stanislaus; Merced College; San Joaquin Delta College; University of California, Merced; and the Yosemite Community College District, which includes Modesto Junior College and Columbia College. If a student is planning to transfer between HECCC institutions, Equivalency Grids will detail how courses satisfy comparable requirements at the other participating institutions. For more information, click on HECCC Grids at CSU Stan HECC.

Reaffirmed by the MJC Curriculum Committee, 2/20/2018
A student may earn more than one associate in arts and/or associate in science degree from Modesto Junior College. A course used for a prescribed graduation requirement or to meet general education requirements may count toward more than one degree. In addition, a student may not earn an AA and an AS in the same program.
A candidate for an associate in arts degree, associate in science degree or a certificate of achievement must file an application for the degree or certificate in the Enrollment Services Office once the student is enrolled in his or her last semester of program completion. Students will be notified by student email with the status of their application. No student, however, is a candidate for graduation until the degree or certificate application is completed. Graduation ceremonies for degree candidates are held at the end of the spring semester each year. Awards will be dated at the end of the semester in which the qualified student applies, but will not be available until approximately two months after the end of the term. Once awards have been printed, students will be notified via student email. A photo ID is required and awards will not be released if the student owes money to the college.
Degree and certificate applications will be accepted during the filing period for each term. Any applications submitted after the term deadline will be processed with the upcoming term. Application deadlines can be found on the Evaluations webpage under Degrees and Certificates.
Modesto Junior College awards associate in arts or associate in science degrees upon completion of a set program of study, usually done in two years (full-time), although completion time may exceed two years. The program of study includes coursework in a major or area of emphasis, as well as completion of general education. At Modesto Junior College, students must complete the associate’s degree requirements, including a minimum of 60 units with at least a 2.0 grade point average. Some students plan to end their education with an associate’s degree while others plan to transfer to universities to earn bachelors, masters, and/or doctorate degrees.
The Student Transfer Achievement Reform Act (SB 1440 – Padilla), signed into legislation on September 29, 2010, enables the California Community Colleges and California State University to collaborate on the creation of associate in arts degree (AA-T) and associate in science degree (AS-T) transfer programs. This new law requires community colleges to grant an associate degree for transfer to a student once a student has met specified admissions, general education, and major requirements for the degree. Upon completion of the associate degree, the student is eligible for transfer with junior standing into the California State University (CSU) system. Students are given guaranteed admission into the California State University (CSU) system, and further are given priority consideration when applying to a particular program that is similar to the student’s community college major. The law prohibits the CSU from requiring a transferring student to repeat courses similar to those taken at the community college that counted toward their associate degree for transfer.
The Bachelor’s Degree Program in Respiratory Care is being offered at Modesto Junior College. A new cohort begins every fall. The goal of the Bachelor’s Degree Program in Respiratory Care is to enhance the professional expertise of registered respiratory care practitioners. Students will acquire advanced knowledge in neonatal, pediatric, and adult critical care and will be prepared to serve in leadership, educational, and case management roles related to patient care in the field of respiratory care. Program graduates will be prepared to participate as multidisciplinary team members in healthcare settings which serve the community’s diverse patient population.
Modesto Junior College offers certificates and awards in the technical, applied, and business sciences to students who complete courses specified for each program. The curriculum is developed by faculty in cooperation with advisory committees comprised of business and industry representatives. Modesto Junior College offers two types of awards to recognize completion of technical programs and/or courses:
Certificates of achievement are granted for the completion of a specified program. These state-approved certificates acknowledge workplace competencies and job readiness. Specific course requirements for each certificate are listed with the program descriptions in the Catalog. MJC certificate of achievement programs range in units from 8-39 and are offered in many areas such as agriculture, supervisory management, real estate, and medical assisting. Students should apply for their certificates during the semester in which they are completing their final program requirements.
MJC offers noncredit courses classified as Career Development and College Preparation (CDCP) to prepare students for employment or to be successful in college-level credit coursework. The noncredit courses lead to a state-approved certificate of completion or certificate of competency.
Skills recognition awards are granted for the completion of a specified program whose total requirement is between 5½ and 15 units. These locally approved programs are offered by community colleges to provide training needed in the community. Students should apply for their awards during the semester in which they are completing their final program requirements. Because these programs are locally approved and not formally recognized by the State of California, these awards do not appear on official student transcripts. Financial Aid is not available for students enrolled in only Skills Recognition courses but students may receive the California College Promise Grant (CCPG), if eligible.

Pathway to Transfer-Level Composition for English Language Learners
Effective date: Summer 2021
Notes:
MJC students come from many different language backgrounds, and students who speak languages other than English enroll in MJC classes for a variety of different reasons. Some desire to improve their professional skills. Others wish to earn an academic certificate or a college degree, and perhaps transfer to a university. Still others come as immigrants or refugees, and their goal is to gain a better understanding of how to live successfully in America. If you are among any of these groups of people, MJC’s English Language program has classes to help you.
The English Language classes come in two varieties, and the variety you choose will depend on your personal goals and your current language ability. If your goal is to build practical English skills to use at work or in daily life, you should consider the classes called ENGLISH FOR LIFE AND WORK. These classes are numbered from 901 to 906. They are integrated skills classes, which means every class includes instruction in listening, speaking, reading, writing, and grammar. ENGLISH FOR LIFE AND WORK classes are all non-credit, which makes them an economical option for students who are not yet California residents. In addition, these classes also provide an excellent starting point for students who want to strengthen their language skills in a low-pressure environment or gain necessary prerequisites before beginning the credit sequence.
That brings us to the second variety, the credit English Language classes. These classes are called ENGLISH LANGUAGE INSTRUCTION FOR COLLEGE, but we use the acronym ELIC. This sequence is designed to help English learners build academic language skills that will help them in all of their college classes. Most of these courses are either four units or seven units, and attendance and homework requirements are relatively firm. A student who completes the ELIC pathway will satisfy the English composition requirement for college graduation. Unlike the ENGLISH FOR LIFE AND WORK classes, the ELIC classes are not integrated skills. Rather, there are three different emphases: there are Reading/Writing classes, Grammar classes, and Listening/Speaking/Pronunciation classes.
The Listening/Speaking/Pronunciation classes, ELIC 23 and 33, are four units each. There are no prerequisites, which means a student may decide for himself whether or not he is ready to take these classes. It is recommended that a student take ELIC 23 before ELIC 33, but non-credit students in ENGLISH FOR LIFE AND WORK 905 or 906 find the content of ELIC 23 accessible. Thus, although the Listening/Speaking/Pronunciation classes are optional in the ELIC Pathway, they provide an excellent entry into the credit sequence.
The three Grammar classes—ELIC 22, 32, and 42—are four units each, and they must be completed in order. A student who has completed ENGLISH FOR LIFE AND WORK 904 or 905 is eligible to enroll in the first Grammar class, ELIC 22. He can also qualify for ELIC 22 through the MJC placement process. The Grammar classes are required for students in the ELIC Pathway.
The four Reading/Writing classes—ELIC 20, 30, 140, and 100—coordinate with the three Grammar classes. In other words, if a student wishes to progress through the Reading/Writing classes, he must also progress through the Grammar classes. To begin the first 7-unit Reading/Writing class—ELIC 20—a student must either complete the highest class in the non-credit ENGLISH FOR LIFE AND WORK sequence, or he must qualify through the MJC placement process.
After a student completes the first Reading/Writing class and the first Grammar class, he is eligible to enroll in the next 7-unit Reading/Writing class, ELIC 30. Then, after completing ELIC 30 and ELIC 32, he may enroll in the 7-unit ELIC 140, whose units are university-transferrable as elective credits. Finally, after completing ELIC 140, a student is ready to enroll in the capstone class of the program, the 5-unit ELIC 100. This class is the equivalent of English 101 and 100, but it is designed to provide language support which is very helpful for English Language Learners. The units in this class satisfy the English Composition requirement necessary for graduation from MJC and the California State University. Congratulations in advance!

This chart graphic contains three core pathways:
The SLAM Pathway, for students who need only Math 101 or Math 134 to complete their mathematics requirement, can enroll directly in Math 101 or Math 134 by either taking a concurrent corequisite course or by completing the pre-transfer level non-STEM preparation coursework if not placed in the course directly.
The Business or Education Pathway for students who need Math 111, Math 130, or Math 105 as part of their mathematics requirement can complete pre-transfer level non-STEM preparation coursework if not placed in the course directly. Math 111 has a concurrent corequisite option.
The STEM Pathway for students who need Math 138, Math 161, or Math 171 as part of their mathematics requirement can complete pre-transfer level STEM preparation coursework if not placed in the course directly. The STEM Pathway typically begins with Math 161 and continues with the sequence: Math 162, Math 171, Math 172, Math 173, Math 191, then Math 193.
Non-STEM and STEM Preparation courses include arithmetic, prealgebra, elementary algebra, and intermediate algebra. Credit and non-credit options are available.
For more information on the course, including name, description, and prerequisites; refer to the specific course in the catalog.
To ensure that students enroll in the right mathematics course, students should talk with a counselor before selecting any pathway to ensure they are adequately prepared for their chosen major.

This A.S. is designed as a University Preparation, Emphasis in Agricultural Sciences Degree. The University Preparation degree, distinctive of the University Preparation "pathway," is designed to prepare you for transfer to a California State University (CSU) or University of California (UC) campus. While completion of this program does not guarantee admission to a specific college or university, it allows you to complete preparatory courses that may apply toward the area of study in which you plan to major at your targeted transfer university, and to complete general education requirements required by CSU and UC for bachelor's (baccalaureate) degree. It entails an interdisciplinary approach to learning that will allow you to simultaneously meet your unique transfer goals and fulfill lower division requirements for bachelor's degree at many CSU or UC institutions. You will do this by completing a rigorous general education experience with either the CSU-GE or IGETC general education patterns, in addition to completing an emphasis in a particular field or program. How does it work? Each emphasis has been crafted to help you prepare for upper-division coursework in a baccalaureate major at a four-year university. By fulfilling the requirements of the MJC emphasis, you will also be completing some or all lower-division preparation for baccalaureate major at the university. ASSIST (www.assist.org) is a statewide database of recorded transfer agreements between community colleges and universities. You are advised to use ASSIST in selecting courses from the emphasis to ensure that the coursework applies to your baccalaureate major. University Preparation with Emphasis Prepare for transfer with some majors at MJC. Not every program at MJC offers a degree designed for transfer-oriented students. However, many programs do offer AA or AS majors which function like the emphasis for transfer-oriented students.

Geography is the study of spatial aspects of the physical environment, human activities, and the nature of their interactions. Geography draws upon theories from both the physical and social sciences. As physical scientists, geographers study earth processes and the resulting features; climate, soils, vegetation, tectonics, landforms and resources. As social scientists, geographers examine human behaviors and the patterns humans create through economics, religion, language, urbanization, folk and popular culture, and ethnic identities which are reflected in the landscape. Geography utilizes a regional approach to examine the interrelationships between the physical environment, economy, culture, politics and history of specific locations, such as California, Europe or Asia.

This A.A. is designed as a University Preparation, Emphasis in Language Studies. The University Preparation degree, distinctive of the University Preparation "pathway," is designed to prepare you for transfer to a California State University (CSU) or University of California (UC) campus. While completion of this program does not guarantee admission to a specific college or university, it allows you to complete preparatory courses that may apply toward the area of study in which you plan to major at your targeted transfer university, and to complete general education requirements required by CSU and UC for bachelor's (baccalaureate) degree. It entails an interdisciplinary approach to learning that will allow you to simultaneously meet your unique transfer goals and fulfill lower division requirements for bachelor's degree at many CSU or UC institutions. You will do this by completing a rigorous general education experience with either the CSU-GE or IGETC general education patterns, in addition to completing an emphasis in a particular field or program. How does it work? Each emphasis has been crafted to help you prepare for upper-division coursework in a baccalaureate major at a four-year university. By fulfilling the requirements of the MJC emphasis, you will also be completing some or all lower division preparation for baccalaureate major at the university. ASSIST (www.assist.org) is a statewide database of recorded transfer agreements between community colleges and universities. You are advised to use ASSIST in selecting courses from the emphasis to ensure that the coursework applies to your baccalaureate major. University Preparation with Emphasis Prepare for transfer with some majors at MJC. Not every program at MJC offers a degree designed for transfer-oriented students. However, many programs do offer AA or AS majors which function like the emphasis for transfer-oriented students. Those majors are included on the following pages to help you make the right decision when determining the best transfer-oriented path of study.

PROGRAM APPLICATION The ADN program application is online. Applications are accepted for the ADN Program once per year. The annual application period is February 1 through February 14. Students are selected from the annual applicant pool for fall and spring semesters of that academic year. Applications are available on the Allied Health website (www.mjc.edu/alliedhealth) during the February application period only. If you are interested in the MJC ADN transfer policy go to www.mjc.edu/alliedhealth. SELECTION PROCESS The ADN Program utilizes a multicriteria screening process for admission. We admit 80% based on highest points and 20% based on random selection of qualified applicants with at least 60 points. MULTICRITERIA SCREENING PROCESS The ADN program selects students based on a Multicriteria Screening Process. Detailed information is posted on the ADN website. This selection model is based on Assembly Bill 1559. Applicants will be evaluated on 1) academic degree, relevant licenses or certificates, relevant work or volunteer experience, 2) GPA in relevant coursework, 3) life experiences or special circumstances, 4) proficiency in a language other than English and the 5) Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS.) The TEAS measures skills in the content area domains of Reading, Mathematics, Science and English and Language Usage. Preparation materials are available in the MJC Library & Learning Center, and Assessment Technologies Institute (ATI) at www.atitesting.com. Prospective nursing students are required to have a total scaled score of 427 (62%) or higher on the Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) within the first two attempts to apply to the MJC Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) program. For information on scheduling a TEAS, go to www.atitesting.com. The TEAS is offered at the MJC testing center. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ACCEPTED APPLICANTS ONLY Accepted applicants will receive information regarding clinical clearance. CLINICAL CLEARANCE/HEALTH CLEARANCE • A medical history and physical examination completed by a physician, physician’s assistant, or nurse practitioner within six months prior to program start date or re-entry date. The physical must state that the applicant does not have any health conditions that would create a hazard to self, employees, or patients. • Documentation of required immunizations. • A negative tuberculosis skin test (TST) must be obtained. If a positive reaction is obtained, or has previously been obtained, a chest x-ray must be taken unless medically contraindicated. BACKGROUND CHECK All students participating in clinical assignments are required by acute care facilities to complete a criminal background check and be cleared by the clinical facility in order to participate in the clinical experience. See Policy for Denial of Licensure below. DRUG SCREEN All students participating in clinical assignments will be required to pass a drug screen. BASIC LIFE SUPPORT (BLS) CERTIFICATION All students must have current certification from the American Heart Association (AHA) BLS for Healthcare Providers, which may not lapse during the program. A list of approved BLS providers will be made available to students. SCHOLASTIC REQUIREMENTS Continuation in the ADN Program is dependent upon completion of all courses with a grade of C or better. If a student receives less than a C in any required course, that course must be repeated with a C or better in order to qualify for the NCLEX-RN. In the ADN program, seventy six percent (76%) is the minimum score required to obtain a grade of C. POLICY FOR DENIAL OF LICENSURE The California BRN protects the public by screening applicants for licensure in order to identify potentially unsafe practitioners. Statutory authority for denial of licensure is contained in the Business and Professions Code. Any student considering a career in nursing who has a criminal record is advised to go to the BRN website at www.rn.ca.gov and search Enforcement and then License Discipline and Convictions prior to applying to the ADN Program. • Pre-nursing students with a criminal record should attempt to have convictions expunged prior to applying for entrance into the nursing program. A criminal record may prevent students from clinical placement and therefore, continuing in a nursing program.
