Assessments

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)
A widely used instrument based on C.G. Jung’s (1921-1971) ideas about perceptions and judgment. The effects of each preference, alone, and in combination, can be put to practical use. The inventory is very useful in making important personal and career decisions. Knowing your preferences and learning about other people’s preferences can help you understand where your strengths are, what kind of work you might enjoy, and how people with different preferences can relate to each other and be valuable to society.
Self-Directed Search
The SDS is based on a theory developed by John Holland, known as RIASEC theory, that both people and work environments can be classified. You will be given an easy-to-use, self-administered test to help you find the occupations that best suit your interests and skills. The test asks questions about your aspirations, activities, competencies, occupations and self-estimates for skills and abilities. These scores yield a 3-letter summary code, an occupational code that designates the three personality types you most closely resemble. With this code, you will use the occupational finder tool to discover occupations that best match your personality types, interests and skills.

EMAIL: finaid@gatewaycc.edu
Financial aid assistance is available to eligible GateWay Community College students in the form of grants, scholarships, employment, tuition payment plans or federal loans. Students may receive assistance from only one funding source or aid may be offered in a package from multiple sources. The student’s award depends on eligibility, level of enrollment, calculated need, packaging policy,
and availability of funds.
Under federal regulations, students have the primary responsibility for funding their education. For dependent students, their parents share that responsibility. All student awards are based on “need” after consideration of student and (where required) parental contribution. Refer to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the federal definition of dependency.
Eligibility
Students must meet ALL of the following requirements to be eligible for federal student aid: be a US citizen or eligible non-citizen; be admitted as a regular student in an eligible program and enrolled in classes that pertain to that program only; make satisfactory academic progress (see policy below); have a high school diploma or GED; apply by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) using the student’s legal name and valid social security number; show financial “need” per federal regulation (for need-based aid, such as grants and work study); be registered with Selective Service (if required); not be concurrently enrolled in high school; not be in default on any Title IV student loan or owe repayment on any Title IV student grant; not be convicted of certain drug trafficking or possession laws; must provide all documentation requested; and must use any funds received for educational purposes only. There are limits to the amount of grants and loans a student can receive in a year and in their lifetime. Additionally, federal student aid can never be received from more than one institution at a time. Students are required to be enrolled and attending credit/clock hours before financial aid funds (Title IV) can be disbursed.
Disbursement of aid will occur when the disbursement process begins for the semester/payment period or shortly after the start of the first class, whichever comes later. Students awarded a loan for one semester/payment period will receive their loan disbursements in two separate but even amounts, with the second disbursement coming no sooner than halfway through the semester/payment period. In order to receive the second disbursement, both the clock and credit hour student must be in good academic status, currently attending, and the credit student must be enrolled in a minimum of six (6) credit hours (with no less than six (6) viable hours (viable hours are hours that have not been withdrawn or dropped from, and or graded with a failed grade of F, Z, or Y)). If the student’s level of enrollment is reduced after financial aid has been disbursed, the award must be recalculated, and the student may owe a repayment.
How to Apply
Students are encouraged to apply early. Priority consideration for limited financial aid funds may be given to those completing the application process in full prior to March 1. Continuing students must reapply for each academic year. Students enrolling for the first-time during spring or summer should apply as early as possible prior to the beginning of the semester/payment period they plan to attend. Students requesting financial assistance may begin the application process by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The school code for GateWay Community College (credit hour) is 008303, the school code for GateWay Community College (clock) is E00701. Students apply electronically at WWW.FAFSA.ED.GOV. Students who need help applying can receive assistance with their federal aid application in the Enrollment Service area at any of the GateWay Community College sites (appointments available, 602-286-8117). After submitting the FAFSA to the processor, students will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) by email. If the codes for GateWay Community College (008303 or E00701) are entered on the FAFSA, GateWay will also receive the results electronically. After the application is submitted online, students must monitor their My.maricopa.edu account and their Maricopa Gmail account frequently as additional documents may be required to complete their application or resolve any inconsistencies that may arise. Student financial aid applications cannot be reviewed until all requested documents have been received. Review of documents originally submitted sometimes triggers the need for additional information, which in turn could require further documentation or clarification. Therefore, it is important for the student to apply early. It is also important that the student keep Enrollment Services apprised of his/her current phone numbers, email addresses, and mailing addresses as students may also receive US postal mail and or phone communications from the financial aid office. Aid application may be denied if mail is returned due to a bad mailing address
Grants
Grants are funds that do not have to be repaid, as long as the class is required for the completion of the student’s Program of Study and the student finishes the classes for which the grant was received. Students who withdraw or cease to attend may have to repay some or all of the grant.
Federal Pell Grant
Eligibility for Pell Grant must be determined first. Pell awards are based on need, with amounts dependent on congressional appropriations and cost of attendance. The amount of the student’s award in a credit-hour program is determined by their enrollment status (full-time, three-quarter-time, half-time, or less than half-time). The amount of the Pell Grant awarded to students enrolled in a clock-hour program is similar, though it is determined by a proration of hours in the program against the hours found in an academic year. As of July 1, 2012, students have a lifetime limitation of 600% Pell Grant which is the equivalent of 12 full-time semesters/payment periods. Reaching the lifetime maximum may affect eligibility for assistance in other federal student aid programs.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG)
FSEOG awards are subject to fund availability, student need, packaging policy, and enrollment status. Per federal regulation, priority is given to students who have exceptional financial need and for students who are also eligible for a Pell Grant. Award amounts may vary according to fund availability, student need, packaging policy, and enrollment status.
Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership (LEAP)
LEAP recipients must be Arizona state residents and enrolled at least half-time. Award amounts will vary depending on fund availability, student need, packaging policy, and enrollment status.
Scholarships
Scholarships generally do not require repayment. Scholarships come from a variety of sources and are awarded based on criteria specific to a particular scholarship. Scholarships are typically competitive, and no student should assume funds are guaranteed until either notified by a donor of their award or funds have been awarded to the student’s account and are viewable. By federal regulation, scholarships must be considered as a resource in determining eligibility for federal student aid. Receipt of a scholarship could cause a reduction in federal funds already awarded. Students are responsible to report any scholarships received.
Students are encouraged to apply for any and all scholarships for which they meet qualifications. Scholarships are posted on the Scholarship Blog which can be found at: http://gatewayccfinancialaid.blogspot.com/. New scholarships become available throughout the year, so students should monitor this site on a regular basis. Free scholarship information and searches are also available at this site. State regulations (HB2008) require that all scholarships awarded and disbursed through the GateWay Community Scholarship Office also must be accompanied by documentation of proof of lawful presence in the United States as well as a signed perjury statement provided on the scholarship application or at Enrollment Services. Students who have not submitted the required information will be contacted and cannot be awarded the scholarship until all required documents have been received.
Employment
Students who are looking for employment at GateWay Community College may be offered part-time employment on campus, with work hours structured around the student’s class schedule. Students looking for part-time jobs on campus should begin their search with the job postings found in Career Services.
Federal Work-Study (FWS)
FWS awards are based on fund availability, student need, and enrollment status. Students must apply for positions through Career Services. Students must go through an interviewing process. There is no guarantee that every student will be placed or that they will earn the entire amount of their awards.
Non-Work Study Employment
Some departments on campus may have institutional funds to hire student employees. Positions for these work opportunities may be posted in Career Services.
Federal Loans - William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program (Direct Loan)
Direct Loans are low-interest loans for students and parents to help pay for the cost of a student’s education after high school. The lender is the U.S. Department of Education rather than a bank or other financial institution. With the Direct Loan, eligible students borrow directly from the federal government and have a single contact - their loan servicer - for everything related to the repayment of their loans. Additionally, the student will have online access to their Direct Loan account information at: https://studentaidhelp.ed.gov/. Awarding is subject to student eligibility, including program of study and existing debt level, as well as subject to terms of a default management plan. All student borrowers are required to attend an entrance counseling session as well as an exit interview to ensure full understanding of rights and responsibilities associated with a student loan. The student must still be enrolled in their program and eligible for the loan at the time of disbursement (for Credit programs, the student must be enrolled in six (6) or more viable credit hours; classes graded with a grade of F, Y, Z, W are no longer viable). An exit interview must also be completed when a student is withdrawn or graduates from a program. The interest rate on Direct Loans are variable but will never exceed 8.25%. Accepting all loans offered may negatively affect eligibility for need-based scholarships and federal work study opportunities. Loans always require repayment, so students are encouraged to take a loan only after exploring all other funding possibilities.
Subsidized Loan
Eligible students who meet the federal definition of “need” may receive subsidized loans, whereby the federal government pays interest on the loan until the student enters repayment. No interest is charged as long as the student is enrolled at least half-time and during deferment periods.
Unsubsidized Loan
Students who are otherwise eligible for loan, but who do not qualify for the subsidized loan, may receive Unsubsidized loans. Interest immediately begins accruing on the unsubsidized loan and the student will be responsible for the interest from the moment the loan is disbursed until it is paid in full.
Effective July 1, 2013 (for all students who receive loans for the first time), the Federal Direct Subsidized Loan has a maximum period of time that they will be eligible for the interest subsidy. This period of time cannot exceed 150% of the published length of the student’s program or three years, whichever is less. Additionally, this time frame is cumulative and will carry over when students change their programs of study. If students continue enrollment after receiving subsidized loans for their maximum eligibility period, they will lose eligibility for additional subsidized loans. Furthermore, their prior subsidized loans will begin accruing interest like the Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan.
Treatment of Title IV Aid when a Student Withdraws
The law specifies how your school must determine the amount of Title IV program assistance that you earn if you withdraw from school. The Title IV programs that are covered by this law are the following: Federal Pell Grants, National SMART Grants, TEACH Grants, Stafford Loans, PLUS Loans, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOGs), and Federal Perkins Loans.
When you withdraw during your payment period or period of enrollment (you may contact the Financial Aid office to define these for you and tell you which one applies; the amount of Title IV program assistance that you have earned up to that point is determined by a specific formula. If you received (or your school or parent received on your behalf) less assistance than the amount that you earned, you may be able to receive those additional funds. If you received more assistance than you earned, the excess funds must be returned by the school and/or you.
The amount of assistance that you have earned is determined on a pro-rata basis. For example, if you completed 30% of your payment period or period of enrollment, you earn 30% of the assistance you were originally scheduled to receive. Once you have completed more than 60% of the payment period or period of enrollment, you earn all the assistance that you were scheduled to receive for that period. If you did not receive all of the funds that you earned, you may be due a post-withdrawal disbursement. If your post withdrawal disbursement includes loan funds, your school must get your permission before it can disburse them. You may choose to decline some or all of the loan funds so that you don’t incur additional debt. Your school may automatically use all or a portion of your post-withdrawal disbursement of grant funds for tuition, fees, and room and board charges (as contracted with the school). The school needs your permission to use the post-withdrawal grant disbursement for all other school charges. If you do not give your permission, you will be offered the funds. However, it may be in your best interest to allow the school to keep the funds to reduce your debt at the school. There are some Title IV funds that you were scheduled to receive that cannot be disbursed to you once you withdraw because of other eligibility requirements.
For example, if you are a first-time, first-year undergraduate student and you have not completed the first thirty (30) days of your program before you withdraw, you will not receive any FFEL or Direct Loan funds that you would have received had you remained enrolled past the 30th day. If you receive (or your school) excess Title IV program funds that must be returned, your school must return a portion of the excess equal to the lesser of the following:
1. Your institutional charges multiplied by the unearned percentage of your funds, OR
2. The entire amount of excess funds. The school must return this amount even if it did not keep this amount of your Title IV program funds.
If your school is not required to return all of the excess funds, you must return the remaining amount. Any loan funds that you must return, you (or your parent) for a PLUS Loan repay, in accordance with the terms of the promissory note, that is, you make scheduled payments to the holder of the loan over a period of time. Any amount of unearned grant funds that you must return is called an overpayment. The maximum amount of a grant overpayment that you must repay is half of the grant funds you received or were scheduled to receive. You must make arrangements with your school or the Department of Education to return the unearned grant funds.
The requirements for Title IV program funds when you withdraw are separate from any refund policy that your school may have. Therefore, you may still owe funds to the school to cover unpaid institutional charges. You will be charged for any Title IV program funds you received, and that GateWay was required to return.
Maricopa Community Colleges Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) for Financial Aid Eligibility
To remain eligible for federal and state aid programs, students must meet all of MCCCD’s Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standards regardless of whether a student has received financial aid in the past or not. These standards apply to a student’s entire academic records at any MCCCD college, including transfer credit hours accepted by the college.
1. Definitions and Terminology Pertaining to this Policy:
a. Summer: Enrollment in the summer semester includes all courses scheduled within the summer enrollment period with all coursework counted in the SAP evaluation.
b. Non-Standard Session / Clock Hour: Sessions that do not follow the traditional start and end dates for the semester.
c. Attempted Credit: Any credit for which a grade of A, B, C, D, F, I, IP, N, P, W, Y, or Z is received, and courses not yet graded.
d. CGPA [Cumulative Grade Point Average]: The MCCCD grading policy is published in the administrative regulations at 2.3.3. The CGPA does not include credits accepted in transfer.
e. Financial Aid Warning: status assigned to an eligible payment period for the next enrolled semester after failing SAP GPA (2.0) and/or Completion Pace (2⁄3). Students not meeting maximum time frame evaluation are not eligible for a warning period.
f. Appeal: A process by which a student who is not meeting the institution’s satisfactory academic progress standards is eligible to appeal the institution for reconsideration of the student’s eligibility for title IV, HEA program assistance based on extenuating circumstances.
g. Extenuating Circumstance: A one-time (not on-going) circumstance that is beyond the reasonable control of the student.
h. Financial Aid Probation: A status assigned by an institution to a student who fails to make satisfactory academic progress and who has appealed and has had eligibility for aid reinstated. A student in this status may not receive title IV, HEA program funds for the subsequent payment period unless the student makes satisfactory academic progress or the institution determines that the student met the requirements specified by the institution in the academic plan for the student.
i. Academic Plan - A plan developed through the SAP Appeal Process which will lead a student to qualify for further title IV, HEA program funds and complete the program within 150% of published program length.
j. Financial Aid Suspension - The status assigned upon failing to meet the minimum SAP standards or the terms of probationary status. Students in this status are not eligible to receive title IV, HEA assistance.
2. Federal regulations (CFR 668.32(f) and 668.34) require institutions of higher education to evaluate Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) using qualitative (GPA) and quantitative (pace of progression) standards.
3. Qualitative and quantitative measures of SAP are required to ensure students receiving Federal Student Aid are progressing towards the completion of a degree or certificate within an eligible program.
4. Specific requirements for academic progress for Federal Student Aid recipients are applied differently than Scholastic Standards. Federal regulations state that SAP Standards must include a review of all periods of enrollment, regardless of whether aid was received, or not. Standards are applicable for all enrolled payment periods, including all levels of enrollment (full-time or part-time enrollment). Students will be evaluated using the standards described below.
5. Failure to meet any of the minimum standards outlined below will result in a student’s loss of HEA, Title IV Federal Student Aid.
Evaluation Period
1. Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) will be evaluated at the end of each payment period. For credit hour programs, a payment period is a semester (Fall, Spring, and Summer). For clock hour programs, a payment period / evaluation will depend on the hours required in the program.
2. Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) are evaluated based on qualitative (GPA), quantitative (pace of progression), and maximum time frame. Failure to meet any of these standards may result in the loss of eligibility for financial aid. Grades of F, I, N, W, X, Y, Z, and courses not yet graded are considered attempted, but not completed in evaluating SAP. Late grades will be recalculated and may change eligibility.
a. Grade Point Average Qualitative Measurement: Students must maintain a 2.0 cumulative Grade Point Average in order to meet SAP GPA requirements.
b. Pace of Progression Quantitative Measurement: Students must successfully complete 2/3 (66.67%) of all attempted course work. For clock hour programs, please refer to program attendance requirements.
c. Maximum Time Frame Measurement: Students must be able to complete their program within 150% of the published program length. Once students have attempted 150% of the published program length, they are no longer eligible for Federal Student Aid. For example, a 16-credit certificate program will allow up to 24 credit hours to complete the program. A 60 credit Associate’s Degree will allow up to 90 credit hours to complete the program. (The time frame for clock hour students is 100% of the published program length.)
3. Courses included in SAP evaluation:
a. All attempted coursework, regardless of enrollment status
b. Courses funded through a Consortium Agreement
c. All attempted remedial credits, including English as a Second Language (ESL) courses.
d. Repeated course work
e. All transferred coursework
f. Grades attempted, but not completed (F, I, N, W, X Y, Z)
4. Course work included in the Maximum Time Frame evaluation:
a. All of those included in the Pace of Progression evaluation
b. Any Bachelor’s degree (or higher) earned will be considered to have exhausted maximum time frame eligibility
c. All coursework forgiven through the Academic Renewal Process
5. Course work not included in SAP evaluation:
a. Audited courses
b. Non-credit courses
c. Credit by examination
d. Credit for prior learning option (as outlined in the college general catalog)
Notification
Students who have applied for Federal Student Aid, but are not meeting Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements, will be notified via email of their FA Warning or ineligibility for financial aid. The notification will direct students to information regarding available college resources during the Warning Period and the appeal process in cases of extenuating circumstances.
Financial Aid Warning
Students are allowed a warning period upon failing Qualitative and/or Quantitative SAP standards. The warning period allows one (1) payment period (semester) of Federal Student Aid eligibility upon failing SAP. The warning period will follow the semester for which SAP was not met, meaning the next semester for which the student registers for classes. In order to receive the Warning period, students must be meeting Maximum Time frame requirements.
SAP Appeal
Any student who has lost federal student aid eligibility due to a resolved, one-time extenuating circumstance may appeal to have their financial aid reinstated by completing a Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal Form. The form must address:
1. What caused the student’s work to fall below acceptable standards--specific explanations must be provided, including any supporting documentation.
2. Each incomplete/failed course
3. How the extenuating circumstance has been resolved, and
4. How the student will maintain good academic standards and progress toward the degree if the appeal is granted.
The outcome of the appeal will depend upon:
1. The nature of the extenuating circumstances (if the stated circumstance qualifies as such),
2. The quality of the documentation provided, and
3. How well the student has demonstrated the ability to progress towards degree completion within a reasonable time period.
All documentation submitted is confidential. All decisions are final and cannot be appealed. For assistance in completing the SAP appeal paperwork, including examples of supporting documentation, visit your college Financial Aid Office.
Students will be notified of the results of their appeal within ten (10) days of filing the appeal. Notification will include any restrictions or conditions pertaining to their appeal. The outcome of an appeal may include a probationary period. Appeals granted longer than one (1) payment period must include an academic plan, which must be followed. Failure to follow an approved academic plan will result in immediate suspension of Federal Student Aid. Students are responsible for any and all debt incurred as a result of this adjustment to financial aid. Failure to successfully complete all conditions during the probationary period (as defined in the academic plan) will result in loss of future financial aid eligibility.
Regaining Eligibility
A student who has lost financial aid eligibility may only regain eligibility by meeting the minimum SAP standards. Transfer coursework taken at other colleges will be considered for reinstatement purposes.
Transferring to GateWay Community College for Clock Hours
A student enrolling in Gateway Community College’s Beauty and Wellness program after having attended other postsecondary institutions can have coursework evaluated for transfer hours. To be eligible for evaluation, coursework must appear on official transcripts and be mailed directly from the source institution to Gateway Community College. Course evaluation will consist of course evaluation, formal assessment and program requirements in alignment with state board requirements.

Absences
Absences begin to accumulate with the first scheduled class meeting. Students may be withdrawn from a class or program for unsatisfactory attendance. Students should refer to their course syllabus for specific attendance requirements.
Attendance Policy
Students enrolled in clock-hour programs must complete 100% of the required hours for each course within their program. Completing over 110% of program hours may have financial implications.
Attendance Standards
Students enrolled in GateWay Community College clock-hour programs are encouraged and expected to attend regularly in order to derive maximum benefit from the instructional program, and develop habits of punctuality, self-discipline, and responsibility. Each program has the responsibility to prepare students with the necessary occupational and work-related skills to enter the workforce. Effective work habits are paramount to students' success.
Students who fail to maintain attendance standards may be withdrawn from the course, which may result in a loss of eligibility of funding to include, but not limited to, Federal Student Aid, VA Education Benefits, and third-party agency funding. Refer to the catalog section on Satisfactory Academic Progress regarding continuation of federal student aid. Students should refer to their course syllabus for specific attendance requirements. Students are responsible for verifying that their attendance is accurately recorded in the attendance system. If students identify an attendance error, they must notify their instructor as soon as possible, and no later than the third business day following the date of the error. Failure to maintain attendance standards may jeopardize a student’s ability to remain in their program of study.
Students are required to clock in when arriving to class and clock out when leaving class. Students must use their MEID when clocking in and out. Students must clock in and out on the designated attendance system. Students must be physically present in person or on line to be marked in attendance.
Disciplinary action per the Student Code of Conduct Policy will take place if a student clocks in or out for another student. Admissions and Records will be the final authority to document the number of hours and absences for each student. There are NO excused absences. Students are considered present or absent. Time missed due to arriving late or leaving early counts toward time missed (absence).
Makeup Time
• Instructors will determine the schedule for makeup hours.
• Makeup hours will not exceed 10% of the total clock hours required per course.
• Students are required to make up all hours to meet the 100% attendance requirement per course.
• Students who fall below 90% attendance hours may be withdrawn from the course and remainder of the program regardless of hours made up.
• All makeup hours are required to be completed before the 100% refund deadline date of the next sequential course.
• Students are required to clock in and out following regular attendance procedure and to officially document makeup time.
Laboratory class periods and clinical externship hours are not always possible to make up. When an absence results in the inability of the student to develop and demonstrate clinical practice objectives and meet the required hours of the course necessary for credit, the student cannot receive a passing grade and will be withdrawn from the program.
Minimum Progress
Clock-hour student progress is measured by the student’s ability to accomplish competencies within stated timeframes. Failure to meet all required competencies in a course may result in withdrawal from the program at the end of the course. To maintain satisfactory academic progress, a student must successfully complete all courses with a P (or a grade of C or better). A student who declares a clock-hour program of study (certificate seeking) must successfully complete courses that constitute the desired program in the order in which they are scheduled. If a student does not make satisfactory academic progress in a current course, the student may be withdrawn from that course and cannot advance to the next course in the sequence. The student will also be terminated from the program of study and withdrawn from remaining courses due to failure to meet program completion requirements by not maintaining satisfactory academic progress.
Re-Enrollment from Withdrawal for Clock Hours
Students who wish to return to school must initiate the re-enrollment process through Enrollment Services. Prior to re-enrollment, student academic records will be evaluated to determine appropriate class schedule, based on current catalog requirements. Depending on the program, students may be required to start the program in the beginning and any coursework completed/started would need to be repeated.
Withdrawal Due to Unsatisfactory Attendance
Students who do not maintain the attendance standard at a rate of 100% or higher for an individual course will fail the current course and/or be withdrawn from the program. Students who fall below 90% attendance hours may be withdrawn for excessive absences regardless of hours made up. Students who discontinue studies in a course or program may refer to Enrollment Services for specific information regarding withdrawal procedures and appeals.
Leave of Absence
• Students may apply for a leave of absence (LOA) to accommodate for an extreme unforeseen circumstance during which the student is not considered withdrawn. Formal LOA request forms are submitted to the Enrollment Services office for LOA Committee review. Requests should be submitted a minimum of 2 weeks prior to the requested leave, when possible. Students impacted by unforeseen circumstances should apply for a formal LOA after they are absent for three (3) consecutive class days.
• The LOA may not exceed 180 calendar days in a twelve-month period. The student will be administratively withdrawn in good standing with an incomplete grade. The student, in good faith, will return back to class as identified by the instructor and LOA Committee when approved. In most situations, the school will grant only one leave of absence to the student in any twelve-month period. Any combination of leave or extension of a leave of absence will not exceed a total of 180 days in any twelve-month period. Additional subsequent leaves may be granted for jury duty, military reasons, or circumstances covered under the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993. The student will not receive tuition reimbursements or credits for an approved leave of absence. If a student’s leave of absence is approved, the student is considered enrolled at the school. For students receiving financial aid, the clock hours accrued during the approved leave of absence will not apply to his/her Pell Grant disbursement. If the leave is not approved or the student fails to return to the school at the end of an approved leave of absence, the student is considered to have withdrawn from school as of the last day of attendance. If the student does not return from the LOA as agreed, the incomplete grade will be updated to an F - failing.
If eligible, students receiving VA educational benefits may take a school-approved leave of absence, but this will interrupt VA educational benefits during the leave. The leave of absence will be reported to the VA as a termination. When the student returns from the leave, the school may recertify the student for benefits, giving credit for all hours completed prior to the leave .
Unemployment Insurance/Training Readjustment Act (TRA)
Students receiving Unemployment Insurance/Training Readjustment Act assistance should submit their unemployment claim forms to Enrollment Services by noon on Friday in order to receive their checks promptly. The completed forms will be delivered to the Department of Economic Security the following Monday.

Licensure Disclaimer
Maricopa Community Colleges courses and programs prepare students for entry into a variety of professions. Many of these professions require that a person hold an occupational license or certificate in order to work in a particular field. Typically, a person must meet certain legal requirements before obtaining such a license or certificate. These requirements are established by county, state, or federal agencies and often are based on a person’s character or whether the person has been convicted of a criminal offense. It is possible for a student who has obtained a degree or certificate from a community college to be denied the right to work in a particular profession, after completing the degree or certificate, because of concerns over the student’s character or criminal background. Any student preparing to enter a field for which a professional license or certificate is required is strongly advised to consult with the appropriate government agency that issues such credentials. That agency can provide the student complete information about any requirements the law imposes for working in a particular occupation.
