60<br />

Alumni Benefits<br />

Graduates have the opportunity to change with the times because <strong>Mt</strong>. <strong>Sierra</strong> <strong>College</strong>’s commitment to its students does not<br />

end upon graduation. As part of the Lifelong Learning program, <strong>Mt</strong>. <strong>Sierra</strong> <strong>College</strong> graduates may audit newly developed or<br />

existing courses within their degree program and area of specialization free of tuition. By keeping up with changes in their<br />

field of study, students will be ready for new opportunities.<br />

Graduates enrolling in the Lifelong Learning program must meet all course prerequisites and will be responsible for lab or<br />

online support fees. They will also be expected to obtain required course materials. Graduates will be enrolled on an audit<br />

basis and will not receive grades for courses completed in the Lifelong Learning program. Space is limited and currently<br />

enrolled students will be given registration priority. This opportunity is open to all degree program graduates who have<br />

fulfilled their obligations to the <strong>College</strong>.<br />

Alumni are also eligible for a <strong>Mt</strong>. <strong>Sierra</strong> <strong>College</strong> email account, courtesy of the <strong>College</strong>. Contact an <strong>Academic</strong> Advisor<br />

at (626) 873-2104 for details.<br />

Maintenance of Student Records<br />

<strong>Mt</strong>. <strong>Sierra</strong> <strong>College</strong>, in accordance with California state regulations, will maintain all student records on school grounds for<br />

at least five years from the last date of attendance. Transcripts will be maintained permanently. No student records are<br />

released without the express written permission of the student except as allowed by the Family Educational Rights and<br />

Privacy Act of 1974.<br />

Students should ensure that they receive important information from the <strong>College</strong> by updating contact information promptly<br />

when changes occur. This information should be submitted to the Records Department either on forms available in that<br />

department or by email. Requests for name and/or social security number changes must be accompanied by supporting<br />

documentation.<br />
