xii Holy Family University History, Facilities, and Services History: Past and Present of Holy Family University Holy Family University is a fully accredited Catholic, private, co-educational university. The University is under the patronage of the Holy Family of Nazareth, the model for all families. Through various activities and the curriculum, concerted efforts are made to deepen the students’ awareness of the Holy Family and the modern family as an important social unit. Founding of Holy Family College in 1954 by the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth marked the culmination of an evolutionary cycle begun in 1934 with the opening of the Holy Family Teacher Training School. During the early years, the college functioned as an afﬁ liate of the Catholic University of America. Full accreditation by the Middle States Association of Universities and Schools was extended to Holy Family seven years after its founding in 1961, a status that was renewed in 1971, 1981, 1991, and 2001. The Pennsylvania Department of Education approved the college for university status in 2002. The graduate programs in education were approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Education in March 1990, followed by the Nursing and Counseling Psychology programs in 1997, the Human Resources Management and Information Systems Management programs in Spring 2000, and the Accelerated Business Administration program in 2003. The graduate program in Criminal Justice was approved in 2007. The graduate program in TESOL and Literacy was approved in 2008. The doctoral program, Educational Leadership and Professional Studies was approved in 2010. Today, the University provides liberal arts and professional programs for more than 2,100 undergraduate students through day, evening, and Summer sessions. The graduate programs in business administration (accelerated), criminal justice, education, counseling psychology, nursing, human resources management, and information systems management serve more than 1,100 professional and pre- professional men and women. Since it was chartered on February 11, 1954, Holy Family has been a dynamic institution responding today in order to provide for tomorrow’s needs. Despite its growth in numbers of students, its geographic expansion from Philadelphia into surrounding counties, its provision of residence opportunities, and its adoption of alternative pedagogical delivery strategies, the University’s purpose remains essentially unchanged—to offer a high-quality, affordable, personalized, and values- centered education in the ﬁ rm tradition of Catholic higher education. In living Holy Family’s motto, Teneor Votis, the University community recognizes its responsibility to those whom it serves and realizes that its Mission is best extended by its students

The general fee covers library expenses, health services, careers counseling, special lectures, other cultural activities, and a share in miscellaneous costs of operating the University as well as all technology including computing, AV services, and library systems.

Graduation Fee Once a student has fi led a petition to graduate and their exit interview is completed, a graduation fee is applied to their account. The graduation fee is $125 and covers the cost of the degree audits and evaluations, the diploma, the diploma cover, mailing fees and other incidental expenses associated with the graduation. All graduates are listed in the commencement program and all graduates must pay the fee regardless of attendance at the commencement ceremony. Payment of bills must be received by the University on or before the date established by the Business Offi ce each semester. Failure to pay any outstanding balance in full when due will result in a late fee assessment of $25 for all payments received after the due date. In addition to assessing a late fee, a fi nancial hold will be placed on the student’s account. A fi nancial hold prohibits future registration, the release of

10 Holy Family University FINANCIAL INFORMATION grades, transcripts and diplomas. All delinquent balances must be satisﬁ ed in full to remove the ﬁ nancial hold. Holy Family University reserves the right to transfer delinquent accounts to a contracted collection agency and/or credit bureau. Students referred to a collection agency will be responsible for all collection costs associated with collecting this debt.

Withdrawal and Return of Funds Policy Institutional policy requires that students who wish to withdraw from courses and/ or campus housing are required to notify the University in writing. The date the written withdrawal notice is received by the Registrar’s Offi ce, and the date the written withdrawal from housing is received by the Director of Residence Life, will be the basis for determining the respective refund amounts. Housing must be vacated permanently by the withdrawal date. Verbal, telephone, or e-mail withdrawals do not qualify as offi cial withdrawal notices. Withdrawal from housing, but not the institution, may impact students’ fi nancial aid. Students should check with the Financial Aid Offi ce to see how their aid may be impacted. 1. Tuition: Students who withdraw from some or all of their courses are eligible for tuition adjustments based on the following schedule. Fees are not refundable, including general fee, with the exception of the laboratory/course fee whichis totally refunded if the student withdraws prior to the fi rst scheduled class. Room & Meal Plan: There is a $25 fee each for canceling or changing the meal plan after the start of the semester. Room charges are not adjusted.

2. Students that are recipients of federal* fi nancial aid that: withdraw from all courses, drop out from all courses, are dismissed from all courses, or take a leave of absence from all courses prior to completing 60% of a semester must have their fi nancial aid recalculated based on the percent of earned aid. (Once a student has completed more than 60% of the payment period, all fi nancial aid is considered to be earned.)

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 11 FINANCIAL INFORMATION • The amount of federal fi nancial aid that the student earns is determined on a pro-rata basis using the following formula: Percent Earned = Number of days completed up to the withdrawal date ** Total calendar days in the term (with an allowance for any scheduled breaks that are at least fi ve days long) • The percentage of aid that is unearned (i.e. returned to the government) is determined using the following formula: Percent Unearned = 100% minus the percent earned • Unearned aid is returned as follows: The school returns the lesser of: • Institutional charges multiplied by the unearned percentage • Federal fi nancial aid disbursed multiplied by the unearned percentage. The student returns: • Any unearned aid not covered by the school • When the school and/or the student must return unearned aid, it must be returned to the appropriate program(s) as follows: 1. Unsubsidized Stafford Loan 2. Subsidized Stafford Loan 3. Federal Perkins Loan 4. Federal PLUS Loan 5. Federal Graduate PLUS Loan 6. Federal Pell Grant 7. Federal ACG Grant 8. Federal National SMART Grant 9. Federal SEOG 10. Other Title IV Grant Programs Loan amounts that are to be returned by the student are repaid in accordance with the terms of the loan’s promissory note. Grant amounts that are to be returned by the student are considered a grant overpayment and arrangements must be made with the school or the U. S. Department of Education to return the funds. • The Business Offi ce will bill the student for any funds the school must return. * Federal fi nancial aid includes the Federal Pell Grant, Federal ACG Grant, Federal National SMART Grant, Federal Supplemental Opportunity Grant (SEOG), Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Stafford Loan (subsidized and unsubsidized) and Federal PLUS Loan.

Financial Aid Holy Family University is committed to providing education to qualifi ed students regardless of means. The fi nancial aid program offers assistance to students in need through scholarships, grants, loans and employment. Non-need based scholarships are offered to incoming and transfer students based on academic achievement. Overall, the University views fi nancial assistance to students as a cooperative investment in a student’s education. If parents and the student contribute to the maximum of their ability, then the University attempts to complete the partnership. Financial aid awards, then, are offered as a supplement to the family contribution. Annual Application Procedures 1. All students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon as possible after January 1. Returning students must submit the FAFSA and Holy Family Supplemental Data form by the priority deadline of April 1 for the upcoming

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 13 FINANCIAL INFORMATION academic year. The FAFSA is submitted to the federal processor. Online fi ling at www.fafsa.ed.gov is encouraged. Indicate Holy Family University (code 003275) in the appropriate section of the form to ensure Holy Family receives the FAFSA results. 2. Check with your state’s higher education agency to determine if a separate state grant application is required and what the deadline is for processing the application. All Pennsylvania residents must fi le the FAFSA form before May 1 to be considered for a state grant. Other states may have earlier deadlines. Holy Family does not replace state grants lost through late application. 3. The Financial Aid Offi ce will receive a need analysis directly from the federal processor soon after the FAFSA is fi led. Once this is received and a new, full-time undergraduate student is accepted for admission to Holy Family University, the Financial Aid Offi ce will provide the student with an estimate of fi nancial aid. Returning students will receive their aid award when their fi le is complete, they are registered for the following Fall semester and after Spring grades are posted. 4. After all forms are fi led, students may be asked (by Holy Family University, the federal processor, or state grant and loan agencies) to supply additional information. It is important to respond to any request promptly to avoid delays in processing fi nancial aid applications.

Federal Assistance All federal aid is based on the Federal Methodology need analysis that analyzes information from the student’s FAFSA and calculates the Expected Family Contribution (EFC). This is the amount that the federal government calculates the family can reasonably be expected to provide toward the cost of nine months of education. After completing the FAFSA, the student will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) which will contain the EFC and information about Federal Pell Grant eligibility. A student’s fi nancial need is determined by subtracting the EFC from the Cost of Attendance (COA), which includes tuition, fees, room/board, living expenses, books, and other personal expenses. Students must be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen and enrolled half-time (at least six credits unless otherwise noted) in a degree program to be considered for these federal aid programs. Federal Pell Grant – This is the foundation for all need-based fi nancial aid. Federal Pell Grant awards are based on the student’s EFC: the lower the EFC, the higher the award. Students enrolled less than half-time (below six credits) may be eligible to receive Federal Pell Grants. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) – Administered through Holy Family’s Financial Aid Offi ce, this grant is used to supplement a student’s Federal Pell Grant award and is given to full-time (at least twelve credits) students with the most need as determined by the FAFSA. Federal Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG) – This federal program awards grants to 1st and 2nd year students receiving a Federal Pell Grant, who have completed a rigorous high school program of study as defi ned by the U.S. Department of Education.

14 Holy Family University FINANCIAL INFORMATION Federal National SMART Grant – This federal program awards grants to 3rd and 4th year students receiving a Federal Pell Grant, who have a minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA and who are enrolled in specifi c majors as defi ned by the U.S. Department of Education. Federal Stafford Loan – This loan is borrowed through the federal government. There are two types of Stafford Loans, Subsidized and Unsubsidized. The Subsidized Stafford Loan is available to students that demonstrate fi nancial need. The principal is deferred while the student is enrolled at least half-time (six credits). The interest rate is 4.5% for 2010-2011 and does not accrue until after the student either graduates or drops to a less than half-time enrollment status (fewer than six credits). The Unsubsidized Stafford Loan is available to students regardless of fi nancial need. The principal is deferred while the student is enrolled at least half-time (six credits). The interest rate is 6.8%, which the student either pays or allows it to accrue. For both types of loans, a 1% origination fee is deducted from the loan before it is disbursed. However, .5% of the fee is immediately refunded back in the form of an interest rebate. The net effect of this rebate is that the student will receive the loan amount less .5%. Repayment of both interest and principal begins six months after the student graduates or drops to a less than half-time enrollment status (fewer than six credits). If the fi rst 12 required monthly payments are not made on time, the rebate amount (.5%) will be added back to the loan. Please see the chart below for the amounts a student can borrow.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 15 FINANCIAL INFORMATION Federal Perkins Loan – This is a university-administered loan program that is awarded usually to fi rst and second year full-time (at least 12 credits) students as a supplement to the Federal Stafford Loan. Perkins Loan money is awarded on the basis of the student’s need and availability of funds. Payments of interest and principal are required to begin nine months after the student graduates or drops to less than half-time status (fewer than six credits). Federal Nursing Loan – This is a university-administered loan program that is awarded usually to fi rst and second year full-time (at least 12 credits) students pursuing a nursing degree. Payments of interest and principal are required to begin 9 months after the student graduates or drops to less than half-time status (fewer than six credits) or withdraws from the nursing concentration. Federal Work-Study Program (FWSP) – This program is administered through Holy Family’s Financial Aid Offi ce. Full-time (at least 12 credits) students are eligible and the amounts awarded are based on a student’s need and annual funding. Students are usually assigned to the many jobs that are available on campus and time sheets are submitted for hours worked. Bi-weekly paychecks are issued directly to students rather than to student billing accounts. Positions are not guaranteed since availability depends on student schedules, skills, departmental needs, federal funding and student initiative. Work-study earnings are intended to help assist with the cost of living expenses, books and supplies. Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) – This loan is available from the federal government for parents of dependent undergraduate students. Based on credit worthiness, parents can borrow up to the cost of attendance minus expected fi nancial aid. The interest rate is 7.9% and begins accruing on the date of the fi rst disbursement. A 4% origination fee is deducted from the loan before it is disbursed. However, 1.5% of the fee is immediately refunded back in the form of an interest rebate. The net effect of this rebate is that the parent will receive the loan amount requested less 2.5%. If the fi rst 12 required monthly payments are not made on time, the rebate amount will be added back to the loan. Repayment can begin either 60 days after the loan is fully disbursed or deferred until six months after the student graduates or drops to less than half-time (fewer than six credits).

State Assistance Pennsylvania State Grant – This grant is administered by the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA). Grants are awarded to Pennsylvania residents enrolled half-time (at least six credits) based on PHEAA’s eligibility determination. PHEAA utilizes the FAFSA information to determine eligibility. The deadline for submitting the FAFSA to be considered for a PA grant is May 1. Other State Grants – Some states, such as Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Vermont, provide grant and scholarship money for students attending out-of-state colleges.

Various Financial Aid Policies 1. Renewal of aid administered by Holy Family University is dependent upon the availability of funds and a reassessment of the aid recipient’s eligibility. 2. Commitment of funds assigned by the federal and state government is made subject to legislative appropriation. 3. If a student receives a Pennsylvania State Grant, another state grant or an Athletic Grant after receiving a Holy Family Grant and/or a Federal SEOG Grant, the Holy Family Grant or Federal SEOG Grant may be reduced by the amount of the additional state grant or Athletic Grant. The Holy Family Grant or Federal SEOG Grant will not be increased if a student’s state grant is lost due to late fi ling of their applications and/or the student’s lack of response to the state’s request for additional information. 4. A fi rst-time Federal Stafford Loan borrower must complete a loan entrance interview before loan funds can be disbursed. Recipients of the Federal Perkins Loan and the Federal Nursing Loan must meet with the student loan offi cer to complete all necessary paperwork prior to the disbursement of funds. 5. Before leaving the University, all student loan borrowers must complete a loan exit interview. The purpose of the exit interview is to make the student familiar with the rights and obligations for repayment of their student loan. 6. Each applicant for need-based fi nancial aid must agree to submit his/her own and/or parents’ completed and signed federal income tax forms and any other requested forms to the Financial Aid Offi ce upon request. Omission or falsifi cation of pertinent information does not relieve the student of fi nancial obligations to the University and may result in refusal or withdrawal of fi nancial aid, refusal of admission, dismissal from the University or any other penalty deemed appropriate by the University. 7. Students are obligated to report to the Financial Aid Offi ce any changes of enrollment or residency status or any changes in your fi nancial situation (including receipt of gifts or outside scholarships and/or tuition reimbursement for expenses related to attending Holy Family). 8. When a student’s fi nancial assistance from outside sources in combination with federal, state and Holy Family funded grants and scholarships exceeds the general tuition and fee cost, their Holy Family funded grant and/or scholarship will be reduced by the amount in excess of the general tuition and fee cost.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 27 FINANCIAL INFORMATION 9. Except for some Holy Family Scholarships, students must reapply for all types of fi nancial assistance each academic year by the required fi ling deadline (see Annual Application Procedures for fi ling deadlines). 10. Holy Family University awards university-based grants and scholarships to fi rst through fourth year full-time students.

Minimum Standards for Satisfactory Academic Progress for Financial Aid Federal regulations require that an institution establish, publish, and apply reasonable standards for measuring whether a student, who is otherwise eligible for aid, is maintaining satisfactory academic progress in their course of study. For the purpose of satisfactory academic progress, fi nancial aid includes all federal, state, and Holy Family University funded scholarships, grants, discounts, work, and loans. Quantitative Standards To be eligible for continued receipt of fi nancial aid (excluding PHEAA state grants), students must satisfactorily complete at least 75 percent of all courses attempted. Qualitative Standards To be eligible for continued receipt of fi nancial aid, students must achieve the following: 23 or fewer cumulative credits 1.75 cumulative grade point average (GPA) 24 and above cumulative credits 2.0 cumulative grade point average (GPA) Students who receive the following scholarships must also maintain the stated minimum cumulative grade point average in order to continue to receive the scholarship: Scholarship/Minimum Cumulative GPA Scholarship Minimum Cumulative GPA Presidential Scholarship 3.2 Trustees Scholarship 3.0 Deans Award 2.6 Maximum Timeframe for Completing Degree Requirements The maximum timeframe for completing degree requirements is six years for full-time study, twelve years for half-time study and seven years for the accelerated program. Therefore, fi nancial aid will not be available beyond the maximum timeframes.

28 Holy Family University FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Additionally, Holy Family University funded fi nancial aid (scholarships, grants, and discounts) is not available for more than four full-time years of study. Pennsylvania State grants are only available for eight full-time semesters or sixteen half-time semesters. Measurement of Academic Progress Academic progress measurement includes all semesters and is usually measured at the end of the Spring semester. Students beginning their program in the Spring semester will be evaluated based on their academic performance during their fi rst Spring semester and at the end of each subsequent Spring semester. Also, the satisfactory progress standards are cumulative and will include all semesters of the student’s enrollment, even those for which the student did not receive fi nancial aid. Failures and withdrawals are courses attempted, not completed. Incompletes are not counted toward credits completed until after the course work is successfully completed and posted by the Registrar’s Offi ce. Repeat courses will not count toward credits completed for satisfactory academic progress since the credits were already counted toward the standards the fi rst time the course was completed. When Minimum Standards of Academic Progress are not Achieved Students who fail to meet academic progress requirements will be notifi ed by the Financial Aid Offi ce after information on academic progress is available at the end of the academic year (typically May). Students who fail to meet these requirements will not be considered for fi nancial aid until all standards have been achieved. Under no circumstances will fi nancial aid be awarded retroactively to the semester(s) in which the standards were not met. Students who fail to meet these requirements have the opportunity to make up the hours and grade point requirements needed during the Summer sessions (at their own expense). Once the Summer course work is posted by the Registrar’s Offi ce, the student will be considered for fi nancial aid for the next semester if the requirements are met. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure the grades and credits completed have been properly posted with the Registrar’s Offi ce and to notify the Financial Aid Offi ce once this has occurred. The student may request a waiver of the requirements due to extenuating circumstances. A letter should be written to the Director of Financial Aid indicating why the requirements were not met. Approval or disapproval of this appeal will be made by the Financial Aid Appeals Committee. The student will be notifi ed in writing of the committee’s decision. Standards of Academic Progress for the Pennsylvania State Grant Program Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) requires recipients of the PA State grant to complete a minimum of 24 credits for every two semesters of full-time grant assistance received, or a minimum of 12 credits for every two semesters of part-time grant assistance received. Students whose status is split during an academic year (full-time/part-time) will have their state grant eligibility reviewed based on a proration of annual requirements for the appropriate semester. Students may appeal directly to PHEAA concerning extenuating circumstances.

Emphasis is placed on the applicant’s academic record, potential and interest, personal integrity, and on the desire to pursue a liberal arts education as defi ned in the aims and objectives of Holy Family University. Neither religious affi liation nor ethnic characteristics infl uence the granting of admission. Merit scholarships are awarded to new, full-time incoming students based on the student’s academic records. For more information, contact the Admissions Offi ce at 215-637-3050.

* Exceptions to any of these criteria can be made at the discretion of the University authorities. Adult students, 21 years of age or older, who may not have previously attended college and who seek admission to Holy Family need not submit SAT/ACT scores. ** Students without the foreign language requirement may be admitted to the University and will be placed in the introductory level of a language. *** Students who have not completed any of these courses will be advised to take the appropriate University courses. Any demonstrated falsiﬁ cation or misrepresentation of materials submitted during the application process will result in dismissal from the University.

Application Application to Holy Family University can be made anytime after successful completion of the Junior year of high school. Procedures for this process are as follows: • Forward the completed application form to the Admissions Offi ce accompanied by the non-refundable fee of $25 • Have an offi cial high school transcript, including SAT or ACT test scores, sent directly to the University* • Request a letter of recommendation from the high school principal, counselor, instructor, or an employer • A personal interview with an Admissions Counselor is recommended. Applications to the University are accepted throughout the year. However, early application is strongly encouraged since certain programs may only be able to admit a limited number of students. Requests for admission are reviewed within two weeks of the receipt of the credentials listed above. Radiologic Science applicants should review specifi c application procedures which may apply in this discipline. Registered Nurse applicants should contact the Division of Extended Learning and/or the School of Nursing and Allied Health Professions for information concerning the RN to BSN accelerated degree option.

Part-Time Matriculated Undergraduates The designation part-time matriculated student applies to those degree-seeking traditional and non-traditional students who qualify for offi cial degree candidate status but are enrolled for fewer than 12 credit hours per semester. The application procedures completed by these students are the same as those for full-time students. Those applicants who intend to pursue a degree but have not been formally accepted into a degree program may not complete more than 12 credits part-time before seeking matriculation. To attain matriculated status (i.e., offi cial acceptance as a degree candidate), the student’s academic credential fi le must be complete and the student must complete an academic review. Non-matriculated students are not eligible for any form of fi nancial aid.

40 Holy Family University ACADEMIC LIFE Special Categories of Admission Alternative Admissions Program (AAP) – This program is designed for selected high school Seniors who apply for full-time admission to the University but who do not demonstrate all of the criteria required for such admission. Typically these students have defi ciencies in their high school achievement in one or more, but not all, academic areas. The objective of this program is to assist the students in strengthening basic skills and in developing proper study habits so that they may be prepared to enroll on a full-time basis. All AAP students will enroll in one course during Summer Session II and four courses during the Fall semester. Students are considered full- time during the Fall semester because they will be registered for a minimum of 12 semester credits. All AAP students must maintain a minimum grade point average of 2.0 or above without earning a failing grade or withdrawal in any course attempted. AAP students meeting these requirements may register for more than 12 credits during the Spring semester. International Students – International students seeking to study full-time at Holy Family University must present the credentials and admission forms required of all applicants. All foreign transcripts must be evaluated by World Education Services, Inc. (WES – www.wes.org) an offi cial credit evaluation agency, before being submitted. International students must demonstrate strong English profi ciency as evidenced by scores from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), SAT I Test, or ACT Test and satisfactory achievement in their preparatory studies. In addition, the student must meet all academic responsibilities and must demonstrate fi nancial capability before arriving in the United States. Only after all the required documents have been received and favorably evaluated will the Admissions Offi ce issue the necessary statement (I-20) to the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS) for permission to enroll full-time. Because of the complexities involved in the admission of international students, all must apply well in advance of the anticipated date of enrollment, preferably at least four months prior to the desired start term. Transfer Students, Second Degree or Postbaccalaureate Teacher Certifi cation – Students may be admitted to the University by transfer from other colleges and universities. These applicants will be admitted to advanced standing only upon presenting to the Admissions Offi ce: • A completed application and the non-refundable application fee of $25 • An offi cial high school transcript* and offi cial transcripts from all other colleges, universities, and post-secondary schools attended. Failure to list a previously attended institution will result in denial of admission or dismissal from the University • One letter of recommendation, preferably academic or professional.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 41 ACADEMIC LIFE Upon presentation of the credentials, the applicant is admitted with Freshman, Sophomore, or Junior status. Only credits applicable to the program of study will be considered for transfer.

After this time, a new application process must be initiated.

Admission and Classification of Non-Matriculated Undergraduates Non-Degree Seeking Students – This includes those who are taking credit courses for enrichment purposes rather than for a degree. The criteria for admission to Holy Family for non-degree seeking students are principally the applicant’s ability to meet the educational standards of the institution, the intellectual interest and training of the applicant, and the applicant’s motivation to pursue studies within the scope of the aims and objectives established by the University. An offi cial high school transcript is required for any high school student in this category.

Readmission to the University A full-time student who has not enrolled for courses for one year or who has voluntarily withdrawn from the University or a part-time student who has not enrolled for courses for two or more years must apply for readmission in order to continue his or her studies. Credits previously earned at Holy Family prior to the readmission request will be re-evaluated upon readmission. In addition, any transfer credits which were previously accepted are subject to reevaluation. All transcripts from institutions attended during the interim and the application for readmission should be submitted to the Registrar’s Offi ce. Credits of those seeking readmission will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis in consultation with the appropriate School Dean. Returning students will be accepted into the current academic catalog requirements. Additional criteria apply for readmission to the program in Radiologic Science. Please see Chapter 6 for specifi c program policies. Academic Forgiveness Policy The University’s Academic Forgiveness policy applies only to undergraduate students. Students who have been withdrawn from the University for a minimum of three 3 years are eligible to apply for a one-time academic forgiveness adjustment of all “D” and “F” grades. Students should submit a letter of petition for academic forgiveness at the time the application for readmission is made to the University. The petition for academic forgiveness will be considered upon the completion of 12 credits after readmission with the condition that no grade earned during the 12 credits is less than a “C” and that the term grade point average (GPA) for each term of the 12 credits is no less than 2.0. Grades of “C” and above will apply to degree requirements (as appropriate) and the GPA. Grades of “D” and “F” will appear on the transcript but are not included in the calculations and need to be retaken if applicable to the degree program. Recipients of academic forgiveness are eligible for academic honors as earned. Petitioners are advised that academic forgiveness does not apply to all academic programs nor does it guarantee acceptance into a specifi c degree program. Academic forgiveness adjustments may not be recognized by institutions outside of Holy Family University and they may affect fi nancial aid eligibility.

48 Holy Family University ACADEMIC LIFE Transfer and Advanced Placement Credit Transfer Credits – In general, credits which are applicable to the intended degree and in which the applicant has earned a minimum grade of C at an accredited institution of higher learning within 10 years of application to Holy Family University will be accepted for transfer. The maximum number of transfer credits that will be accepted is 75. Only credits applicable to the program of study will be considered for transfer. Transfer credits will be offi cially accepted and posted to the student’s academic record after matriculation. Transfer credits will not be accepted for any course completed at Holy Family University and subsequently repeated at another University. Advanced Placement Study – Holy Family participates in the Advanced Placement Program of the College Entrance Examination Board. High school students who have taken college level courses and the board’s advanced placement examination submit the offi cial test scores to the University. Students who have achieved a score of 3 or higher are eligible for consideration for credit at the discretion of the Vice President for Academic Affairs/designee.

The student must have an offi cial college transcript sent directly to the Admissions Offi ce in order for the transfer credit to be evaluated.

Credit for Non-Traditional Learning Holy Family University recognizes and awards up to 30 credits for each or any combination of the following non-traditional programs. These credits are included in the maximum number of 75 credits eligible for transfer toward degree completion.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 49 ACADEMIC LIFE Challenge Examinations – With the permission of the respective School Dean and notifi cation of the Registrar, students who have acquired knowledge and skills in non-traditional ways may receive credit through challenge examinations. These are tests formulated by the instructor and made available in certain schools. These tests may be written or oral, or a combination of both, and are designed to ascertain that the student possesses the basic equivalent knowledge and skill as a student who successfully completes the course. The following restrictions apply to challenge examinations: • No more than 30 credits may be earned through challenge examinations • Not all courses are available on a challenge basis • Preparation for challenge examinations must be done independently; students may not audit the respective course. Students who have received permission to take a challenge examination must: • Register for the challenge examination before the conclusion of the semester drop/add period. • Pay the non-refundable fee of 1/3 credit hour charge. The student will receive a Pass/NG grade for each examination. These grades do not carry quality points and are not refl ected in the cumulative average. If any challenge examination is failed, the student must take the course in order to receive credit. Students will initiate the request to take a challenge examination by completing the Challenge Examination Request Form in the Dean’s offi ce in which the course is located. College Level Examination Programs (CLEP/DSST Program) – The option to challenge courses through the College Level Examination Program or the DSST Program is available. It is advisable, however, to consult fi rst with an academic advisor regarding the subjects, the number of credits, and the scores that the University will accept through these examinations. Credit is awarded by transcript entry only after the student has been matriculated at Holy Family with a GPA of 2.0 or above. At the time of this examination, arrangements should be made to have offi cial scores forwarded to the Academic Advising Center. The School of Nursing and Allied Health Professions uses the ACT-PEP examination to validate prior knowledge. Non-Collegiate Training – Holy Family subscribes to the recommendations of the American Council on Education for college credits earned through the training programs offered and/or sponsored by non-collegiate training programs that have been evaluated for college credit by the American Council on Education’s National Guide to Educational Credit for Training Programs. Such credit will be considered as equal to credits earned at other accredited colleges and universities and accepted through transfer by Holy Family University.

50 Holy Family University ACADEMIC LIFE Credit for Cooperative Education/Internships Cooperative Education and internships are professional work opportunities meant to enhance academic coursework. Co-op positions are paid and internship positions are not. Both programs receive academic credit. The Cooperative Education Department, located in the Education and Technology Center, has opportunities for all majors in the Schools of Business Administration and Arts and Sciences. Students are encouraged to make an appointment with a member of the staff who will guide them through the entire application and placement process. Sophomore year is the ideal time to apply but students may apply as early as Freshman year. All students must make an appointment with the Director or her assistant. Three types of Co-op programs are available to both full-time and part-time students: • Parallel Program: the most popular of the three programs, students attend classes full-time and at the same time obtain vitally needed practical experience in their chosen ﬁ eld of study on a part-time basis • Alternating: the student alternates full-time periods of work with full-time periods of study. • Job Enrichment: for the student who is already working and is offered a chance to earn academic credit either working in another department, assigned a special project, or working under a different supervisor.

Credit for Study Abroad Holy Family University encourages qualiﬁ ed students to study abroad if such study seems likely to contribute to their educational objectives. Students must plan their program with their Academic Advisor and School Dean and submit the program to the Vice President for Academic Affairs for ﬁ nal approval. This procedure is necessary if academic credit is to be granted for study abroad. If students enroll for approved courses at colleges or universities abroad, transfer credit will only be awarded for courses in which a minimum grade of C is earned. Grades earned at institutions abroad will not be included in the calculation of the student’s grade point average. Various options are available for semester-long as well as single course study abroad experiences. Information concerning Holy Family Study Abroad programs may be obtained through the Vice President for Planning and Special Projects, ext. 3452.

Credit for Off-Campus Studies Coursework may be taken at other accredited four-year institutions by students matriculated at Holy Family University. This coursework will not be accepted for credit unless the student has obtained advance written approval from the School Dean (courses in the area of concentration only) and the Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences (courses in the general education core and/or offered by the School of Arts and Sciences). Credit is transferred only for a minimum grade of C or better.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 51 ACADEMIC LIFE Grades obtained at other colleges or universities are not included in calculations of the cumulative grade point average. Transfer credit will not be awarded for any course previously taken at Holy Family University which is repeated off-campus.

Students must have completed at least one year as a full-time student at their home campus before taking courses through cross registration. Students may cross-register at the Registrar’s Offi ce of their home institution. The following policies apply in those cases in which cross registration is completed. • Grades received in courses taken through the SEPCHE cross registration are calculated in the home campus grade point average • Credits earned count toward graduation requirements at the home institution • Substitution of courses taken through cross registration for required courses in the major (or minor) requires special approval by the major (or minor) division or department. A student may not complete all coursework for a major at a host institution unless there is a special agreement between two or more institutions • The Registrar of each institution will keep a record of the number of students cross-registered each semester and the number of units or credits taken each semester and will report those numbers to the SEPCHE offi ce by November 1 and April 1 each year • No tuition or fees will be charged by host institutions, except for special or extra fees that are part of courses taken, such as lab fees. The student is responsible for these fees and the home institution will take responsibility for their collection • The cross registration program functions only during Fall and Spring semesters • Cross registration is not available for accelerated or weekend courses, independent study, tutorials, internships, practicum fi eld experience, student teaching experiences, private music lessons, or graduate students • Authorization to drop or add a course adheres to the deadlines of the host institution. Students may enroll after deadlines without penalty at their home or other SEPCHE institutions if a course they are enrolled in is canceled • Students are responsible for transportation to and from the host campus and for adjusting to differences in academic schedules and calendars to obtain campus identifi cation and parking permits. There will be no additional parking charge for SEPCHE students parking on the host campus.

Attendance All students are expected to attend all the class and laboratory sessions of every course in which they are registered. They may not absent themselves except for illness or some other serious matter. In any semester, absences equal to twice the number of weekly contact hours of a given class are deemed excessive. Credit may be jeopardized by absences that have exceeded the allotted number, unless the instructor and School Dean of the respective school deem that circumstances warrant an exception. Students who never attend classes will be administratively withdrawn from courses but students should be aware that such action can affect ﬁ nancial aid eligibility in current and/or future semesters. 56 Holy Family University ACADEMIC LIFE Students are also expected to meet their usual class responsibilities set by the University calendar for the beginning of a vacation period. They may not extend their vacation beyond the date assigned for return to University without the approval of the School Dean in the area of concentration.

Enrollment Adjustments Drop/Add Adjustments – These registration adjustments, as well as changing from one section of a course to another section of the same course, may be made only with the approval of the Registrar and the authorization of faculty or academic advisors and must be in writing. Drop/add adjustments will not be made after the date specifi ed in the current semester course brochure. Students are personally responsible to initiate and complete drop/add adjustments. Once enrolled in a course, those students who never attend classes but do not complete the drop process will be administratively withdrawn from the course. This action may jeopardize academic standing and fi nancial aid status. After the published drop/add period ends, students may still change their enrollment in a course as described in the following sections (late drop/withdrawal). Late Drop (Withdrawal) from a Course* – If necessary a student may process a late drop for a course up to, but not beyond, one month before the beginning of the fi nal examination period (Fall and Spring semesters) or one week before the end of Summer sessions. Students’ transcripts will show a “W” for all courses for which a late drop is processed. Late drop forms are available in the Registrar’s Offi ce. Students are personally responsible to initiate and complete late drop adjustments. The last day of class attendance will be the date on which the late drop form is received in the Registrar’s Offi ce. Only in case of documented illness or for other serious cause will the administration allow change in enrollment status without penalty after the late drop deadline. Appeals to the policy or deadline are to be made in writing and submitted with supporting cause documentation to the Registrar. Such exceptions will be reviewed on an individual basis by the Registrar and forwarded to the Vice President for Academic Affairs/designee for a resolution. *For Nursing students, withdrawal from a Nursing course requires the signature of the BSN Chair. Withdrawal from the University – Degree seeking students are expected to maintain continuous enrollment. If necessary, a student may withdraw from the University or take a leave of absence. Requests must be submitted to the Registrar in writing for approval. A leave of absence will hold a student’s place in his/ her current academic program for a maximum of one academic year. Offi cially withdrawn students who return to the University at a later date must reapply under the catalog that is current at the time of readmission. (Please see readmission process described previously in this chapter.) The University reserves the right to dismiss matriculated students whose academic achievements consistently fall below a GPA of 2.0.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 57 ACADEMIC LIFE Course Grades A student’s standing at the close of the semester is determined by the results of class work, tests, assignments, and fi nal examinations. All forms of course assessment as well as class work and independent assignments are scheduled at the discretion of the instructor. Students are required to take fi nal examinations at the time they are offi cially scheduled; failure to do so may result in an Incomplete (I) grade in the course. The student is responsible for having the I grade changed within the allotted time (one month from the last examination date), after which time it becomes an “F” grade. Anticipated or deferred examinations are given only when a student has circumstances necessitating schedule adjustment and must have the approval of the instructor and the appropriate School Dean. Deferred examinations are scheduled through the School Dean/designee of the respective School so that all course requirements are completed within the given semester. Reports are made on fi rst-time students after the middle of the fi rst semester at midterm. These reports are for the information of the registrar, the students, and their advisors. Midterm reports are not part of the permanent offi cial record. Final grades are issued to all students by mail from the Registrar’s Offi ce at the end of each semester and are part of the student’s permanent offi cial record.

Academic Honesty Holy Family University, true to its motto, Teneor Votis, (I am bound by my responsibilities), educates men and women both intellectually and morally to assume their responsibilities toward God, themselves, and society. The University expects from its students the highest standards of honor and integrity in meeting their academic responsibilities. In addition, academic honesty is essential for effective evaluation of student scholarship and growth. Anything less than complete integrity undermines the basic educational process. Hence, academic dishonesty in any form is regarded as a breach of honor and integrity, an evasion of personal responsibility, and an attempt to misrepresent progress. Violations of standards cannot be tolerated at Holy Family University and will result in sanctions, including possible dismissal from the University. Violations include, but are not limited to, copying tests, laboratory reports, etc., purchasing work to present as one’s own, obtaining tests or test questions illegally either verbally or otherwise, using notes during testing, or collaborating with another to obtain test information. Plagiarism is another form of cheating. This is deﬁ ned as using in a written or oral assignment or project the ideas or words of another without acknowledging the source. When one repeats, without quotes, the ideas or words of an author, paraphrases an author’s ideas, or presents an author’s line of thought without

58 Holy Family University ACADEMIC LIFE acknowledging that author, the user is guilty of plagiarism, a serious breach of academic honesty. Similarly, the use of computers to obtain and/or disseminate information for dishonest purposes, as well as misrepresentations concerning the source, development, or application of computer software, constitutes a serious violation of academic integrity. Anyone who willfully assists another in the breach of integrity is held equally responsible and is subject to the same penalties. The University ascribes to a policy of progressive disciplinary action in dealing with proven incidents of academic dishonesty. In accord with this policy sanctions may range from failure of a given course assignment (fi rst incident) or failure of the course and ineligibility for all honors recognition (second incident) to dismissal from the University (third incident). The level of sanction imposed may be modifi ed at the discretion of the academic administration in accord with circumstances prevailing in a given incident. Students will be notifi ed in writing by the School Dean in which dishonesty has been alleged and will have an opportunity to respond to this notifi cation prior to the imposition of any sanction. All disciplinary action related to charges of academic dishonesty may be appealed to a board composed of University administrators, faculty, and students.

Must be within time allowed AU Audit 0 Carries no credit Students are required to earn a minimum grade of C in all courses taken in the major fi eld of study. Any course for which the student receives a grade of F, D, or D+ may be repeated only once. Grade Point Average – The student’s academic standing is measured by the grade point average (GPA). This is calculated by dividing the total number of credit hours attempted into the total number of quality points earned. Repeat Grades – The second grade of a repeated course will replace the fi rst in the cumulative GPA but will not remove the original grade from the transcript or from the previous semester calculation. Only courses in which a grade of F, D, or D+ is earned may be repeated. Courses may be repeated only once.

Academic Standing The academic standing of all students is reviewed at the end of each semester. Notice of any academic deﬁ ciency is given in writing by the Vice President for Academic Affairs to the respective students. To be considered in good academic standing, every student must maintain a GPA of 2.0. Some programs will require the student to attain a GPA of 2.5 or higher in order to be accepted ofﬁ cially into these schools and to be considered in good standing in their given program. Medical Technology students must maintain the average predetermined by the hospital where they will complete their internship. Please see the Financial Aid section of this catalog for scholarship renewal requirements.

Transcripts The Registrar’s Offi ce issues transcripts. Students may request transcripts in person, by mail, or by fax. Telephone requests will not be honored. The request must be in writing and include the signature of the student authorizing the release of his or her records. There is a $3 fee for each electronic copy of a transcript and the payment in cash, check, money order, or credit card should accompany the request. Paper copies are $4 each. Additional fees are charged for special processing or mailing requests. Students may access an unoffi cial copy of their transcripts via WebAdvisor. The offi ce will not release transcripts for individuals with outstanding debts or other holds until all accounts are settled.

60 Holy Family University ACADEMIC LIFE Ordinarily, offi cial copies are mailed directly to the individual, school, or agency designated by the student. The Registrar’s Offi ce requires at least 48 hours notice to process a transcript. During peak activity periods there may be a delay. Persons requesting transcripts during these times — two weeks prior and following the beginning and end of semesters and Summer Sessions — should anticipate a delay. Transcripts from other colleges that are submitted to the Registrar’s Offi ce become the property of Holy Family University and are included in the student’s offi cial fi le. These transcripts are not released to students or to other institutions. They may not be recopied.

Academic Disputes/Grade Challenges – Grievance Procedure The appeal procedure shall act as a vehicle for communication and decision- making between student and faculty and provide a process through which a grievance can be resolved. Justifi able cause for grievance shall be defi ned as any act that is perceived as either a prejudiced or capricious action on the part of a faculty member in the evaluation of a student’s performance or an arbitrary action or imposition of sanctions without regard for due process. If a student questions a decision made by a faculty member, the fi rst level for appealing the decision is to ask the faculty member to review the decision based on any additional information offered in writing by the student. If the issue is not resolved to the satisfaction of all parties, then a written appeal should be sent to the program administrator/ department chair. If the program administrator/department chair is unable to resolve the issue, then either party may send a written letter of complaint to the School Dean for review and action. If the School Dean is unable to resolve the issue, a written letter of complaint may be sent to the Vice President for Academic Affairs for review and action. The fi nal appeal is to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Any academic dispute or grade challenge must be presented by the conclusion of the next semester and resolved within one year. Any dispute or challenge older than one year will be not be considered.

Probation Students whose cumulative average falls below the required GPA of 2.0 are placed on probation. Probation serves as a serious warning to all concerned that the student’s academic work is unsatisfactory and that deﬁ nite improvement is necessary if they are to continue in college. Students on probation should arrange for a conference with an academic advisor in the Academic Advising Center before continued registration. Full-time and part-time students must raise the cumulative GPA to 2.0 within the equivalent of two full semesters or face academic dismissal.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 61 ACADEMIC LIFE Probation may also affect ﬁ nancial aid. For further details, see the Financial Aid section of this catalog. Students in the School of Education and the School of Nursing and Allied Health Professions should review speciﬁ c program requirements concerning continuation and academic standing for programs in these schools as presented in this catalog and in relevant handbooks published by each of the schools.

Dismissal Continued failure to maintain a minimum average of C normally results in dismissal from the University. Generally, students dismissed for academic reasons are asked not to return to the University unless a substantial improvement in academic performance and a more mature approach to the responsibilities of college life are demonstrated. The evidence supporting this improvement should be indicated in a letter addressed to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. An application for readmission to the college should also be completed and submitted to the Registrar.

Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. They are: • The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the University receives a request for access. Students should submit to the Registrar a written request that identifi es the record(s) they wish to inspect. The Registrar will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected • The right to challenge the content of the student’s education records and to ask the University to amend a record the student believes is inaccurate or misleading. Students should write the University offi cial responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the University decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the University will notify the student of the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing on the matter. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notifi ed of the right to a hearing • The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifi able information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school offi cials with legitimate educational interests. A school offi cial is a person employed by the University in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position; a representative of an approval or accrediting agency; a person employed by or under contract to the University to perform a special task, such as the attorney

62 Holy Family University ACADEMIC LIFE or auditor. A record of disclosures will be maintained by the appropriate offi ce and may be reviewed by the student. The University may disclose certain personally identifi able information, designated as directory information, concerning students in attendance. The following categories of information have been designated as directory information: the student’s name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, date and place of birth, major fi eld of study, participation in offi cially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, enrollment status, degrees and awards received, and the most recent previous educational institution attended. Any student who does not wish directory information released must so inform the Vice President for Student Services in writing within 30 days after commencement of the Fall semester. In any event, the University may disclose directory information from the record of an individual who is no longer in attendance at the University without public notice or prior permission. • The right to fi le with the U.S. Department of Education a complaint concerning alleged failures by the University to comply with the requirements of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 69 70 Holy Family University Academic Programs

The undergraduate degree is organized into core curriculum and discipline concentrations offered within each of the four schools and the Division of Extended Learning. Interdisciplinary programs, specialized programs of study, and minors are also available.

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 71 72 Holy Family University General Education — Core Curriculum The curriculum of Holy Family stands within the mainstream of a 2,000 year old Christian liberal arts tradition. As presented in the catalog, the core curriculum of Religious Studies, Philosophy, the Humanities, and the Social and Natural Sciences implements in a general way the objectives of the University. It also contributes to the formation of liberally educated students who ﬁ nd their education is functional in the 21st century. Through this education, students are encouraged to seek not merely information, but personal formation and enrichment.

Programs of Specialization or Concentration* The key concepts behind the degree programs are coordination and integration of knowledge through the seminar method of instruction in the Junior and Senior years, and through the employment of comprehensive or Senior examinations. Seminar-A seminar serves to effect a meeting between the mature and developed minds of the faculty and the developing minds of the students, thus creating the community of thought the University considers important. The aim of the seminar is familiarity with the literature of the area of specialization, stimulation of the students to personal responsibility for their own education and enthusiasm for their fi eld, and integration of knowledge through comparative studies, topical discussions, and critical evaluation of trends and theories. In the seminar, the students are engaged with guided reading, independent study, research projects, writing, discussion, and reports. Here, they are constantly challenged to ever- increasing intellectual maturity. The University has chosen the seminar method as its distinctive feature because it fi nds that integration of disparate segments of learning is particularly desirable in today’s world, where the explosion and fragmentation of knowledge pervade education and life. In the fulfi llment of the purposes of the seminar, the patterns may differ in each department; selected topics or themes for the seminars may vary from year to year. As a further implementation of the concentration program and, specifi cally, as a means of exploring common areas of interest, seminars between the faculty and the students of several concentrations are occasionally arranged. Ultimately, the programs aim at the formation of thinking persons who are prepared theoretically and practically, by intellectual habits and skills, for life and its everyday value judgments and decisions, and for smooth adjustment to particular professions. *Concentration is synonymous with major or major area of study. Acceptance into the Concentration-It is to the advantage of the student to decide upon a fi eld of interest early in his or her academic career. To qualify for participation within a particular concentration, a student must be in good standing, i.e., have attained a cumulative index GPA of 2.0 or higher depending on the area of specialization. It is the policy of some schools to review

Undergraduate Programs 2010-2011 73 GENERAL EDUCATION — CORE CURRICULUM the student’s scores on tests in order to determine the levels of competencies before accepting the student into the school. It is the prerogative of the school to set its own expectations and standards of excellence when admitting concentrators. A student may change the major area of study with the consent of the appropriate School Dean and the Associate Vice President for Academic Services and Registrar. Formal requests for a change of major are initiated in the Academic Advising Center. The student must be in good standing and must meet all the requirements for the new major before such a request may be honored. Acceptance into certain areas of concentration may also be restricted by enrollment. Honors Study-The School of Arts and Sciences invites qualifi ed students into honors courses to fulfi ll core curriculum requirements. These honors courses parallel regular courses but provide academic enrichment through more in-depth readings, research, independent work, and seminar-type format. The following are the current honors courses being offered at Holy Family University: ENGL 103, 104 Honors Writing I, II ENGL/HIST 263 Honors American Studies PHIL 103 Honors Introduction to Philosophy Related Field-Holy Family University, as a general policy, does not have a related fi eld requirement. Some programs, however, may prescribe a related fi eld in support of their advanced coursework, e.g., students planning on certifi cation to teach on the secondary level will be obliged to choose Education as a related fi eld. Minors-Currently, disciplines in the School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Business Administration offers students an option to declare a minor. Students should declare a minor early in the Sophomore year in order to plan appropriate course offerings. To facilitate this, a student should consult his/her faculty advisor or the School Dean from which the minor is offered for direction in choosing and scheduling a minor concentration. The choices of available minors are described within the respective schools.

Interdisciplinary Programs Students with special goals have an opportunity to concentrate in one of several currently available interdisciplinary programs including Biochemistry, Interdisciplinary Humanities, Psychobiology, and Psychology for Business. As indicated, each program involves 2 or more concentrations that already offer a major. Interdisciplinary programs are closely coordinated by a faculty advisor in each discipline who works with the student toward making this experience a meaningful and rewarding one. All interdisciplinary programs include seminars and comprehensive examinations in accordance with the usual pattern of a degree program.

74 Holy Family University GENERAL EDUCATION — CORE CURRICULUM Pre-Professional Programs Pre-professional programs offer students a combination of coursework and experiences which support their preparation for and application to designated professional programs of study. Students participating in pre-professional programs benefi t from focused advising offered through designated advisors and/or counselors. Pre-Art Therapy – Students interested in combining an interest in art with a career in mental health and therapy should concentrate on a foundational program in Studio Art with appropriate electives in Psychology. Pre-Law – Students considering the study of law after graduation plan a program of study that develops abilities in logic and critical thinking, skills in writing and communication, and an analytical understanding of human institutions and values. Nationally, more pre-law students major in the humanistic disciplines of English, Philosophy, or History, supplemented by general studies in the Natural and Social Sciences and Mathematics. Interested students are advised to discuss their objectives with the School of Arts and Sciences pre-law advisor. Pre-Medicine, Dentistry, Optometry, Podiatry, Physical Therapy, Physician’s Assistant, Veterinary – Post-baccalaureate professional programs in health care recognize strong liberal arts training as the foundation of a successful career in the health care professions. After admission requirements to a professional program in healthcare may be met by taking Biology, or Biochemistry as the fi eld of concentration. In any case, a candidate must excel in the sciences to receive favorable consideration for admission. A Pre-Health Professional Committee serves an academic advising role providing assistance and support to those interested in entering a health professional career such as: medicine, dentistry, optometry, podiatry and veterinary medicine.

The School of Education Mission The mission and hallmark of the program for professional educators prepared at Holy Family University is to instill in the students the ability to replicate in their own classrooms the atmosphere modeled for them throughout their professional preparation program. All teacher certifi cation programs support and strive to implement the University mission in their goals and objectives, and, in particular, to affi rm the dignity of the human person. Each program supports the overall mission as a part of a comprehensive four-year degree program with a Core Curriculum in the liberal arts and through professional preparation focusing on curricular, pedagogical, and professional issues in Education. To that end, developmental programs move the student through higher levels of understanding, profi ciency, and integration. The programs refl ect the belief that the child’s needs are best served by teachers who are lifelong learners, teachers who understand human development and who apply that knowledge in a constructivist approach to teaching.

For example, a teacher must be employed in an elementary grade classroom in order to be supervised for an elementary certifi cation. Intern teachers register for a six-credit internship and a three-credit Senior seminar. Intern teachers must be screened and present evidence of readiness for intern student teaching as previously described. Teacher Certification and Program Approval The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) has revised the course standards and program guidelines for Teacher Certifi cation in the State of Pennsylvania. The new guidelines will be in effect for all seeking teacher certifi cation after January 1, 2013. The School of Education will make every effort to notify the students of these changes, but the student is responsible for checking these changes with his/her faculty advisor. New Pennsylvania Teacher Certifi cates will be issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Education starting on January 1, 2013. The current Elementary K-6, the Special Education N-12, and the Early Childhood N-3 certifi cates will be discontinued. The certifi cates issued prior to this date will be grandfathered and remain active. New certifi cates will be issued after this date for all approved programs in Early Childhood PreK-4 and Middle Level 4-8. All other K-12 and Secondary Education 7-12 certifi cations will be revised to include additional coursework in Special Education and the Teaching of English Language Learners. The new Special Education PreK-8 and Special Education 7-12 certifi cations must be coupled with either a PreK-4, a Middle Level 4-8, a K-12, or with a secondary certifi cation area. Upon completing one of the state-approved teacher Education programs, a student is eligible to apply for an Instructional I certifi cate to teach at the designated level in public schools in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Effective September 1, 1980, all persons who qualify for or who hold a valid Instructional I certifi cate shall have six service years to complete an additional 24 hours of post-baccalaureate credit in an accredited four-year college or university in order to receive the Level II certifi cate. Certifi cates will be converted to Level II status after a minimum of three years of satisfactory teaching experience in Pennsylvania, completion of an additional 24 post-baccalaureate degree credits, and demonstrated participation in an induction program provided the certifi cate holder satisfi es the academic and experience requirements established for the Level II certifi cation. Since certifi cation requirements vary from state to state, it is the responsibility of the students to ascertain the requirements of the state in which they plan to teach and to consult with their faculty advisor early in their university career.

166 Holy Family University DEGREE PROGRAM IN EDUCATION Holders of a Pennsylvania teaching certifi cate may also qualify for certifi cation in other states that are party to the Interstate Certifi cation Compact. A listing of these states may be obtained from the School of Education, along with information concerning the specifi c procedures to be followed in order to become certifi ed in a different state. Graduate Help and Assistance for Teachers-GRAD HAT The Holy Family University School of Education faculty has developed a website called GRAD HAT. This website is designed as an outreach program to serve new graduates and teachers who have completed their initial teacher certifi cation requirements. During a teacher’s fi rst years, challenges will arise which often involve planning for instruction, managing the classroom, motivating students, dealing with individual differences, assessing student work, and working with parents. Navigating the path to continued professional development and additional credentials also present a challenge. The School of Education has assembled information on GRAD HAT as a starting place for new teachers to fi nd answers and to obtain assistance. This site can be accessed through the School of Education website at http:www.holyfamily.edu/sedu/index.shtml under GRAD HAT – Graduate Help and Assistance for Teachers.

Post-Baccalaureate Teacher Certification Students who already possess a Bachelor’s degree and enroll in the University solely for the purpose of obtaining certifi cation may do so provided that: • The applicant has met the same requirements for admission to the teacher certifi cation program as all other students (see Education School Handbook) • A transcript of all grades from institutions previously attended is submitted for evaluation • The applicant agrees to undertake continuous registration for coursework until the requirements for the approved program have been met. Students must take a minimum of four courses at the University, in addition to student teaching • The applicant recognizes that completion of the approved program, not an accumulation of credit hours, is required for certifi cation purposes. Failure to meet any one of these provisions may deny the individual the opportunity to achieve certifi cation by this means. Appeal Procedure • If a student questions a decision made by a faculty member or by the Education Compliance Committee, the fi rst level for appealing the decision is to the Dean of the School of Education • The fi nal appeal is to the Vice President for Academic Affairs or designee. At each level, decisions will be rendered within 15 school days. Appeals will be addressed only when school is in session during the Fall and Spring semesters.
