Policies and Regulations Overview
As a VVC College Student, you have a responsibility to yourself, your fellow students, and the college community to do the right thing. The College has high expectations for you.
Student Responsibilities
Student Success is a shared responsibility. You have a responsibility to understand and follow all college policies and procedures. You are also responsible for reaching out when you need support (and we know all students do.) Counseling and guidance services are available to help you plan and successfully complete your educational goals. Support services are available every step of the way. All students should know about the schedule of classes (located on the website during Registration periods each year) as well as the catalog https://catalog.vvc.edu/, which provides a wealth of information on admissions, registration, graduation, transfer, and managing and financing a college education. It also has guides for planning certificates and degrees, program plans, and information about courses. It is important for you to be informed and for you to know where to find information.
Student I.D. Card
The ASB/Student Identification Card is provided for all VVC students and must be presented to access certain classes, computer labs, the weight room, the library and to ride the Victor Valley Transit Authority (VVTA) bus. It can be obtained in the Student Activities Center, 2nd floor. A current Registration Statement and valid picture ID (driver’s license, CA ID, military ID, or passport) is necessary for the card to be issued. All fees must be paid prior to receiving an ASB/Student ID Card. (Check with Financial Aid for assistance with fees.)
Student Accident Insurance
Board of Trustees Policy 5205 states that all students who are properly registered at Victor Valley College are provided student accident insurance for accidents which occur in class or during college-sponsored activities such as sporting events. This insurance is secondary to other insurances. If a student is injured, claim forms are available in the Risk Management Office or on the VVC website under https://www.vvc.edu/risk-management.
Drug and Alcohol-Free Campus
Victor Valley College is a drug and alcohol-free campus. This means that the use, possession, or distribution of either illicit drugs or alcohol by students or their guests is prohibited on college property or at any college sponsored activity. Students or their guests who violate these requirements may be suspended or expelled from Victor Valley College. Counseling and referral services are available through the Counseling Department for students who have concerns about alcohol or drugs.
