General Information
Register Early: Register early so you won’t be disappointed. Often
classes reach the maximum enrollment early. Also, classes depend
on minimum enrollments. Classes with insufficient enrollment
will be cancelled one week prior to start date. Don’t take a
chance. Your class may be cancelled.
Age Appropriate Guideline: Community Education classes are
designed for students of all ages. Age guidelines are stated with
each class. Classes designated as ADULT are intended for students
18 years and older. With INSTRUCTOR PERMISSION, high school
students may attend adult classes. Students 16-17 years old may be
admitted to Continuing Education credit courses upon request from
the chief executive officers (or designees) of the high school districts
in which the student resides. Call (815) 921-3900 for information.
Out-of-District/Out-of-State Students: In addition to the regular
tuition and service fee, students residing outside District 511 will be
charged out-of-district/state fees for credit courses. These additional
fees will be waived if a student living outside the district/state is
employed full-time within the district and able to present a letter from
the employer testifying to that fact. Property owners paying taxes to
District 511 are also eligible for in-district rates. No out-of-district/state
fees are charged for non-credit courses.
Special Needs: Call RVC Disability Support Services Office at (815)
921-2356. Office Hours: Monday - Friday, 8 am - 5 pm.
The College is committed to providing an accessible and supportive
learning environment for all Whiz Kids. To help us meet this goal, at
least three weeks in advance of the beginning of a Whiz Kids class,
please notify the College Community & Continuing Professional
Education office at (815) 921-3900, of any disabilities or conditions
requiring special accommodations or attention so the College can determine
reasonable accommodationwhich can be made.
Full And Cancelled Classes: RVC reserves the right to limit enrollments
or cancel any class. Every effort will be made to notify registrants
when a class is cancelled. Students may choose alternate courses or
receive full refunds. There are NO REFUNDS after a class begins.
Exceptions noted in individual course descriptions.
Withdrawal: If you wish to withdraw from a class, you must do so
ONE business day before the first session to receive a full refund.
Exceptions noted in individual course descriptions.
Textbooks: Textbooks should be purchased before the first class.
Textbooks, where required, are an additional expense. For specific
textbook information, call the Rock Valley College Bookstore at

Grading Policy: A grade of pass (P) indicating completion or (I) indicating
incomplete will be issued for most courses. Courses and
grades will be listed on an RVC transcript.

due to bad weather, the Community and Continuing Education classes
will also be cancelled.
Notification of Students’ Rights: The federal Family
Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 as amended
identifies the rights of students and their families with respect to student
educational records kept by the institutions. The act provides
students with four significant rights: (1) inspect and review their
record, (2) restrict the disclosure of their record, (3) seek to amend
their record and (4) file a complaint with the U.S. Department of
Education. Students have the right to expect that information in their
educational records will be kept confidential, and will be disclosed
only with their permission or under provision of the law. For specific
details regarding these rights, refer to
www.rockvalleycollege.edu/FERPA .
