2009-2010 Academic Calendar - Wor-Wic Community College

Student Services Information/15
Area employers can take advantage of free job referral services by having positions
advertised on the “job openings” bulletin board at the college campus and
in the career services section of the college Web site at www.worwic.edu. In addition,
employers can schedule employee recruitment interviews on campus.
An annual job fair is held in the spring for current students and alumni.
Academic Advisement
All students are assigned an academic advisor to help them work out a program
of study that best meets their needs. Individual assistance is available
to all students in the planning of their class schedules to ensure that the courses
they select match their career goals. All students are encouraged to meet
with their advisor to preregister or register for classes. Advisors also meet
with their advisees periodically to ensure continued student progress. It is the
student's responsibility to know and follow the requirements for his or her
program of study.
Registration
Registration dates are listed in the calendars in the front of this catalog. Those
who register for 12 or more credit hours per semester/session are classified
as full-time students, while those who register for 11 or fewer credit hours are
classified as part-time students. A student cannot register for more than 18
credit hours during a fall or spring semester or seven credit hours during a
summer session without the permission of his or her advisor and the dean of
student development.
All students are encouraged to meet with their advisor prior to registering for
classes. Students can register in person at the college campus or online
through the student portal from the college Web site at www.worwic.edu.
Students are eligible to register online if they are registering for only one
course that does not have prerequisites or if they have more than 15 credit
