The library contains books, periodicals, and computers with Internet access . Day and evening hours are posted each quarter . The Librarian is available during scheduled hours to guide students and staff with their research and assist with reference materials and elec- tronic library search activities . definiTion of a CrediT hour Academy College has established policies and procedures to determine curriculum, select instructional material, lecture topics, lab and clinical activities, and out of class assignments . These policies and procedures are implemented to ensure that 26 CATALOG AND COMPLIANCE POLICIES each course, irrespective of the mode of delivery, provides qual- ity relevant content and is sufficiently rigorous academically so that students may achieve a satisfactory level of competency as established by each course’s learning objectives . modes oF deliveRy There are three modes of delivery that are utilized . They are residential, distance education, and hybrid . Each of these may include a lab component . Residential The residential mode consists of (1) a lecture or a (2) internship or externship . Residential lecture classes include face-to-face instruction and class discussion covering the theory, principles, application, or history of a subject . The residential mode also includes directed field trips and addresses by guest speakers . Distance Education/Virtual Delivery Distance education occurs when the instructor and the students are not physically present together in an educational setting, usually a classroom . Interaction occurs either asynchronous and/ or synchronous between the instructor and the student/s and between students utilizing one or more interactive technologies . Academy College delivers its distance education through Moodle, an online learning platform . Hybrid Hybrid classes are combinations of distance education (online) and residential (face to face) class sessions . Labs During labs, students apply knowledge and skills they have learned in the course . Labs are equipped with hardware and software . Classes with a lab component include both in-class and outside lab sessions . In-class labs for residential classes are conducted during the class session under the direction and/or supervision of the class instructor . All outside labs are conducted on campus in designated lab rooms during specified lab times under the supervision of an instructor qualified to teach in the program area . In-class lab for distance education classes are conducted either online/virtually or on the campus . cRedit houR Policy Credits for academic and financial aid purposes are measured in quarter credit hours . Credits are awarded upon the successful completion of a course . Successful completion means that a student has demonstrated competency and/or proficiency in achieving the course’s stated learning objectives . The number of credit hours awarded per course is the measurement of the minimum levels of necessary work and academic engagement for a typical student to achieve the requisite competency and/or proficiency . - r Credit Hour Definition for Academic and Federal Financial Aid Purposes Academy College defines a credit hour in accordance with appli- cable federal regulations governing the awarding of financial aid and ACCSC’s criteria for course and program measurement as …an amount of work represented in intended learning out- comes and verified by evidence of student achievement that is an institutionally established equivalency that reasonably approximates not less than 1. One hour of classroom or direct faculty instruction and a minimum of two hours of out of class student work each week… for one quarter hour of credit, or the equivalent amount of work over a different amount of time; or 2. At least an equivalent amount of work as required in paragraph (1) of this definition for other academic activities as established by the institution including laboratory work, internships, practica, studio work, and other academic work leading to the award of credit hours. | 2025-2027 | www.academycollege.edu | |

College credits earned in aviation, business, accounting, or gen- eral education courses at other institutions may be considered for transfer to Academy College’s program based on grades achieved in the courses, subject to review by the Education Department .

AV coded classes will be considered for transfer if completed through an institution of higher education with FAA authority to certify its graduates for an Airline Transport Pilot Certificate with reduced aeronautical experience . Students are required to provide an official transcript (which must be sent directly to Academy College from the past institution(s)) and may be asked to provide school catalogs and/or course syllabi from the previous institution(s) to assist in the evaluation of the courses and demonstrated competencies earned by the entirety of a student’s program . 30 CATALOG AND COMPLIANCE POLICIES The maximum allowable transfer of credit into an Academy College AAS or BS program is 75% of the Academy College program credits . Credits must be transferred before the student starts school . Students who previously attended Academy College, withdrew, and then returned to the same program will retain all earned grades on their transcript (including “W’s”) . These grades will be calculated in the GPA and apply towards their completion rate . For students who previously attended Academy College, with- drew, and then return to a different program, the transcript will be reviewed by the Education Department for course transfers (“D” and above) that meet the new program’s criteria . The stu- dent may choose to accept the transfer of their courses . Any F, W, and I grades for courses not required in the new program, do not transfer and will not calculate in the new program GPA .
