• Class Schedule: The Class Schedule is designed to help students register for courses. It includes course dates, course times, course descriptions, available seats, name and emails of instructors, location of classes to be held, and instructions for adding and dropping courses. All information is available online at www.ivc.edu.
• Closed Course: All courses are considered closed on the first day of scheduled instruction, or when the maximum number of students allowed to enroll in a class has been reached. Students must get instructor’s permission to register for the course.
• Corequisite: A condition of enrollment consisting of a course(s) that a student is required to simultaneously take in order to enroll in another course.
• Course Repetition: Every credit course has a maximum number of times a student may repeat that course. Many courses are not repeatable unless a substandard grade or W has been received. The number of repetitions for a course can be found in the catalog in the course description.
• Pass/No Pass: A policy of granting credit, but no grade, for satisfactory completion of a specific course. P/NP classes have no effect on the student’s grade point average.
• CSU GE Breadth Pattern: Prospective transfer students attending a community college may complete this series –or pattern– of courses to satisfy the lower division general education requirements for CSU.
• Degree: A degree is an official college recognition for the completion of requirements for graduation. At IVC you may receive an Associate in Science (AS), an Associate in Arts (AA), an Associate in Science for Transfer (AS-T), and/or an Associate in Arts for Transfer (AA-T) degrees.
• Dismissal: Any student whose cumulative grade point average falls below 1.75 after three consecutive semesters will be subject to dismissal. A student who remains on progress probation for three consecutive semesters will also be subject to dismissal. Students who receive a letter of dismissal must complete the appeal process in a timely manner to be considered for readmission. (See “Probation” for additional information.)
• Electives: An optional subject or course used toward fulfilling total unit requirements for graduation and/or transferring.
• Full Course: A course is considered to be a full course when it has reached the maximum number of students enrolled. If a class is full, students must get instructor’s permission to register for the course.
• Full-Time Student: A student who is enrolled in a minimum of 12 units in one semester or 6 units in the summer session.
• General Education (GE) Requirements: A specific group of courses required of all students in college, regardless of major, who are working toward a degree. GE courses are designed to give students exposure to material outside of their major. Consult the catalog for general education requirements for the associate degree.
