Current Catalog Language (Graduation Requirements – not an official policy) Associate’s Degree To be awarded an associate’s degree at Grand Rapids Community College, students must: Have completed 15 credits of course work at GRCC Certificate To graduate with a certificate, students must complete the coursework outlined in the GRCC catalog for the program in which they are enrolled

Reason for Policy No current policy exists – (we do have a current practice) Current practice does not address certificates specifically – only associate’s degrees GRCC has a range of credits (14-40+) associated with certificates (federal financial aid allows for certificates as low as 8 credits) Current language may allow students to transfer in credit and be awarded a certificate

Henry Ford Community College Associate’s Degree: complete a minimum of 20 semester hours of credit at HFC Certificate: 25% of coursework may be transferred from another institution Lansing Community College Associate’s Degree: earn toward the curriculum at least 20 semester credits in attendance at LCC Certificate: earn toward the curriculum at least 1/3 of the semester credits for the certificate in attendance at LCC Program Credit Examples

Program Credit Examples Continued Washtenaw Community College Associate’s Degree: complete a minimum of 15 residence credits toward completion of each degree pursued Certificate: complete a minimum of 75% of the total credits required as ‘residence credit’ for each certificate pursued’

Updates to Policy Consortium Statement Program Credit Requirement Added

Proposed Policy Associate’s Degree To be awarded an Associate’s Degree from Grand Rapids Community College, students must have earned a minimum of 15 credits through college-level course work within their program of study at GRCC. Certificate To be awarded a Certificate from Grand Rapids Community College, students must have earned a minimum of 8 credits through college-level course work within their program of study at GRCC. *This policy does not apply to consortium agreements.
