STUDENT FINANCIAL AID
NORTHWESTERN POLICIES
NCCC is committed to helping those students who have
financial need to be able to attend college. Therefore,
the College urges all students who plan to enroll in either
a degree or eligible certificate program to apply for
financial aid. Students must complete the admissions
process and become matriculated in order to receive
notification of their financial aid eligibility.
PRIORITY APPLICATION DEADLINES
Since campus-based financial aid programs have very
limited funds available, it is highly recommended that
aid applicants observe the dates for filing a complete
and accurate application. Note the important dates:

FINANCIAL AID APPLICATION PROCESS
Step 1 – The FSA ID replaced the Federal Student Aid
PIN. If you already have a PIN, you will be able to enter
it and link it to your FSA ID. If you have not already done
so, you can create one when logging in to fafsa.ed.gov.
You will need FSA ID in order to sign FAFSA. If you are
dependent on your parent(s), one of your parents will also
need to apply for a FSA ID.
Step 2 – File a carefully completed Free Application
for Federal Student Aid by going to the U.S. Dept. of
Education website at: www.fafsa.ed.gov. Use the
PIN(s) assigned to you (and your parents, if applicable)
to sign your FAFSA and have your data sent to NCCC
(code number 001398). Remember that the FAFSA is
used to apply for all financial aid programs at the college.
File early to avoid losing out on some great financial aid
opportunities.
Step 3 - Monitor your financial aid application status by
following the instructions on the next page of this Course
Schedule. Note the terms and conditions of any aid offered
to you. Be certain to understand the academic progress
requirements to receive aid in future academic terms.
AWARD NOTIFICATION
After receiving your FAFSA data and the need analysis
from the U.S. Dept. of Education, the Financial Aid Office
will construct a “financial aid package” consisting of available grant aid from the Federal, State, and College sources
to award you aid to help cover your direct educational
expenses - tuition, fees, books and supplies – that normally
are out-of-pocket expenses. Any charges not covered by any
financial aid remain the responsibility of the student aid applicant. Note that individual eligibility may vary and result
in different amounts being awarded from different programs.
To receive official notification of any financial aid offered to
you, practice and follow Step 3 previously noted.
DISBURSEMENT OF FINANCIAL AID
Financial aid awarded to you will disburse to your tuition
account if you have authorized it to do so. The Cashier’s Office maintains all student tuition accounts and reconciles any
advances to you to charge your books. Any funds leftover
results in a tuition “credit balance” which would then result
in a refund being sent to you.
PAYMENT OF TUITION AND FEES
Refer to the tuition and fee chart and payment due dates.
Payment of tuition and fees may be deferred for students
who have applied for financial aid on-time and who have
been officially notified of their awards by the NCCC
Financial Aid Office. Estimates from other sources are
merely estimates, not awards. Students who have only
partial eligibility for financial aid are expected to pay
any remaining balance due on their tuition account or
purchase of books.
NOTE: Financial aid covers only courses which earn
academic credit and fulfill degree or eligible certificate
requirements. Financial aid does not cover courses
which are being audited, which do not fulfill requirements in an approved program of study, or for attempting a course that you have already completed more
than once. You must also meet the academic progress
requirements to continue to receive aid in future academic
terms. More detailed information about academic progress
requirements is listed on the Financial Aid Webpages and
the college catalog.
FOLLETT BOOK STORE PURCHASES
Students who have a “credit balance” on their tuition account
as reflected by a minus ( - ) symbol showing in “balance due”
may use the credit balance to buy/rent books in the Book
Store. This may be done 3 weeks before classes begin and
through to the end of the add/drop period.
ELIGIBLE ACADEMIC PROGRAMS
All degree programs are eligible for financial participation.
However, certificate programs of study are only eligible if
they are at least 16 credits in length and prepare graduates
for direct entry into jobs. Therefore, certificate programs
which do not lead to immediate gainful employment are
not approved by the U.S. Dept. of Education. Students
seeking a second Associate Degree must request a curriculum evaluation to determine those courses required in the
new program of study before a financial aid decision can be
made. Students who have already earned a baccalaureate
degree are not eligible for a Federal Pell Grant, a Governor’s
Course offerings are subject to change. For up-to-date information go to www.nwcc.edu

Scholarship or any NCCC need-based grant. All financial aid
awards are conditioned upon meeting all financial and academic
requirements. Awards are cancelled for non-attendance.
In order to monitor your financial aid application status, you

records in STUDENT SELF-SERVICE. If you are a new student
entering NCCC for the very first time, note that you must have
a valid college I.D. number in order to view your financial and
academic records.

APPLICATION STATUS
All students must complete a Free Application for Federal
Student Aid (FAFSA) for each academic year and must also
complete the admission application process before notification
of any financial aid. Allow at least two weeks processing time
before you begin to monitor your status. In the interim, you will
receive an email from the Federal Processor of your FAFSA
releasing the FAFSA data to the College. The CSCU will then
send you an email when the data is received. WAIT at least 2
weeks to receive a postal letter with further instructions. Then
use the myCommNet portal to access Banner Self-Service
and your financial aid status to see whether there are other
documents or forms required to verify your FAFSA data. Access
Banner Self-Service, click “Financial Aid”, click “Eligibility
Requirements”. Choose the award/academic year, then review
all of the information to determine your status.

FALL SPECIAL INFORMATION
ART 187 Museum Treasures: This Museum IS the Masterpiece: Revisiting the
Gardner
he legendary art collector Isabella Stewart Gardner was one of the most extraordinary women to emerge during the American
T
Renaissance and it was she who made her own home a masterpiece. Known for an inexhaustible zest for the arts, she created
“Fenway Court,” a Venetian style palazzo, with a radiant glass-roofed indoor garden at its core.
The galleries and rooms of this stunning “home” were filled to the brim with over 2500 works which Gardner selected and arranged personally and in perpetuity. She was guided in this endeavor by her own taste and many experts, including the young
art historian Bernard Berenson, whose knowledge of Italian Renaissance painting helped her to acquire many 15th C. works,
including Titian’s celebrated Europa.
This four-lecture series will sample a wide variety of art originating in diverse eras and places, while aiming to start and/or continue one’s aesthetic conversation with the work that makes the Isabella Stewart Gardner museum the internationally acclaimed
institution that it is.
Lecture dates: Tuesdays, Sept. 6, 13, 20 and 27 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. in Founders Hall Auditorium.
Field Trip: Thursday, September 29, 2016 to the Isabella Steward Gardner Museum, Boston, MA. (The bus will be leaving
from the Commuter Parking Lot on Route 44 near Ledgebrook Plaza at 8:00 a.m., be there by 7:45 a.m.) Trip required
for credit.
There will be a non-refundable charge for transportation and museum entrance. All monies must be paid by the second
class meeting. The course is subsidized by the NCCF / RAC.

will fulfill a laboratory science requirement. BIO 110 does not meet the prerequisite for BIO 211 or BIO 235. Prerequisite:
Placement into or completion of ENG 101. Students should have basic PC skills since this course makes extensive use
of the Blackboard online learning system for assignments and graded activities. Computer use both in and out of the
classroom is required.

Section 1: Rights of Students
It is the policy of Northwestern Connecticut Community College that its educational offerings be available to students without regard
to the individual’s race, color, religious creed, sex, age, national origin, ancestry, present or past history of mental disability, genetic
information, marital status, mental retardation, sexual orientation, learning disability, or physical disability, including, but not limited
to, blindness, or prior conviction of a crime (unless the provisions of sections 46a-60(b), 46a-80(b), or 46a-81(b) of the Connecticut

groups). With respect to the foregoing, discrimination on the basis of sex shall include sexual harassment as defined in Section 46a60(8) of the Connecticut General Statutes. Further, the college will not discriminate against any person on the grounds of political
beliefs or veteran status.
Students are entitled to an atmosphere conducive to learning and to impartial treatment in all aspects of the teacher-student relationship. The student should not be forced by the authority inherent in the instructional role to make particular personal choices as to
political action or his or her own part in society. Evaluation of students and the award of credit must be based on academic performance professionally judged and not on matters irrelevant to that performance, whether personality, race, religion, degree of political
activism, or personal beliefs. Students are free to take reasoned exception to the data or views offered in any course of study, but
they are responsible for learning the content of the course of study as defined by official college publications.
Community college students are both citizens and members of the academic community. As citizens they enjoy the same freedom
of speech, peaceful assembly, and right of petition that other citizens enjoy, and as members of the academic community they are
subject to the obligations which accrue to them by virtue of this membership.

Section 3: Academic appeals by students
The Academic Appeal process provides a way for students to appeal academic disputes with an instructor. The steps of the appeal
process must be followed in order and in a timely manner. The details concerning the timeline and process are described below.
If the Division Director, Academic Policy Committee or Dean of Academic and Student Affairs finds that the disputed action involving
the instructor conflicts with federal or state laws/regulations, College, or department policy, and/or with the faculty member’s own
policy stated in the syllabus and /or course overview, then a decision should be made in the student’s favor.
However, if the instructor’s decision was made in accordance with federal or state laws/regulations, College, or department policy,
and/or with the faculty member’s own policy stated in the syllabus and /or course overview, then a decision should be made in favor
of the instructor’s decision.
The student shall be afforded the right to present a statement of appeal and relevant information in support of it. It is the student’s
responsibility to show that the decision in question is arbitrary, i.e., without a reasonable basis, or was made for improper reasons
and to provide additional information with each appeal level.
Timing of Appeals
Academic Appeals by a student must be initiated no later than fifteen calendar days after of the posting of the student’s final grade.
The student can obtain the Appeal Packet from the office of the Dean of Academic and Student Affairs. Each successive step in the
appeals process must be initiated within four calendar weeks of completion of the prior step.
Conflict of Interest
If there is an apparent conflict of interest involving a Committee member, that member shall not participate in the recommendation
process.
Electronic Evidence
The admission of electronic evidence of any type will be determined by the Committee on an individual case basis.
Confidentiality
Under the Family Educational Rights & Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, a student’s education record may not be disclosed without
the written permission of the student. The materials from this process will not be disclosed and will remain in the possession of the
office of the Dean of Academic and Student Affairs.
At any time a student may seek the assistance of others in preparing a request for review of academic standing. However,
consistent with the student’s responsibility and the developmental mission of the College, in all meetings and communications with faculty and others pursuant to this Policy, a student may neither be accompanied by an advisor, advocate or
attorney nor will the College communicate with an advisor, advocate or attorney for the student.
Forms available in the Dean of Academic & Student Affairs Office, FH103.
Course offerings are subject to change. For up-to-date information go to www.nwcc.edu
POLICY ON STUDENT RIGHTS
In cases where the dispute is determined to be based upon a faculty member’s professional judgment, such as the evaluation of
test(s), quiz(es), project(s), or performance in a class, then the student is entitled to a timely appeals process and have the Division
Director, Academic Policy Committee, and/or Dean of Academic and Student Affairs and/or the College President, make a judgment
concerning the dispute.
