NTID Grant-In-Aid 9 Federal Grant-In-Aid funds are the primary source of financial aid available for NTID students who do not have adequate financial resources from the sum of their parental or personal contribution and assistance from outside agencies. Grant-In-Aid is awarded on the basis of financial need. Students must re-apply every year by completing the Financial Aid Form (FAF) and the NTID "In-House" application. The minimum amount awarded is $100, and the maximum amount is determined by the student's financial need.

Non-Residents There are no additional charges or fees for NTID students coming from states other than New York.

' 'Technical Electives: During the final two quarters, students are required to take two or three suggested courses, and their total number of credit hours must equal no less than 12. Pre-Baccalaureate Studies 45 Pre-baccalaureate studies are available as a bridge to students accepted by NTID who are not yet ready to enter into a baccalau- reate level program at RIT. Students spend one year in these studies preparing for matriculation. Reasons for entering pre- baccalaureate studies include lack of necessary skills in either mathematics or English, indecision as to program of study, or lack of space in the chosen baccalaureate program. Students receive no degree in pre-bacca- laureate studies. Rather, at an appropriate time, they are advised to apply to the pro- gram of their choice and are assisted in doing so.

Pre-Baccalaureate Studies — Science and Engineering While in the pre-baccalaureate studies, students receive academic advising as well as personal and career counseling. The aca- demic program is flexible and is set up indi- vidually for each student. Courses are chosen to address as closely as possible the Pre-Baccalaureate Studies, Science strengths and needs of individual students.

School of Visual Communication Careers Art Careers

The art field has two major career areas: applied and fine art. Applied artists create art to be used by other persons or com- panies for which they work. Fine artists create art to express themselves.

Other RIT Programs Other applied art programs, as well as fine art and crafts programs, are available in the College of Fine and Applied Arts (CFAA). The Visual Communication Support Department assists students cross registered in this college.

Pre-Technical Program Many students who want to enter the art program require a pre-technical program that usually lasts one quarter. Students can meet pre-technical program requirements and take core courses at the same time.

Core Program Core courses provide basic art experience to prepare students for entry into a major. With the core experience as a basis, students may choose continued studies in either the Applied Art Department or the College of Fine and Applied Arts.

Real Work Experience All NTID art students have an opportunity to gain experience with the real world of applied art. Applied Art students have a cooperative work experience as part of their third-year coursework. Cross-registered College of Fine and Applied Arts (CFAA) deaf students can work in the In-House Co-op program that is offered every sum- mer. This experience is similar to a job in a professional art studio. Students complete various kinds of art production jobs for clients from all parts of the Rochester community. Students who work for In-House Co-op during the summer earn money while they learn important job skills.

As resources permit, NTID provides support services (interpreting, tutoring, notetaking, counseling, and advising) to NTID students cross registered in RIT's other eight colleges. These support services provide the opportunity for deaf learners to function successfully in a mainstreamed environment.

Institute Standards for Student Conduct 81 RIT's Educational Mission It is the mission of RIT "to prepare men and women for living and working in a democratic and technological society" by offering curricula that "...meet the need for technological skills within the broader framework of humanistic values." To achieve its mission, the Institute establishes guidelines that provide for the orderly conduct of its instructional and campus life activities. As an educational community, it strives for a campus environ- ment that is free from coercive, exploitive behavior by its members. Moreover, it sets high standards that challenge students to develop values that will enhance their lives professionally and enable them to con- tribute constructively to society. Historically, RIT has aspired to the goal of preparing students for the "making of a Principles Underlying Institute 6.

The Institute values and safeguards the personal privacy of its members. Rooms in campus housing will not be entered by Institute personnel without the per- mission of the residents, or without authorization from the vice president for Student Affairs, or unless a legal search warrant has been obtained. Exceptions are made in emergency situations, such as imminent harm to individuals or serious damage to Institute property, and for reasons of health and safety.

College of Graphic Arts and Photography 85 RIT's College of Graphic Arts and Photog- raphy has a worldwide reputation for the first-rate preparation it offers its students. The college has four main divisions: the Center for Imaging Science; the School of Photographic Arts and Sciences; the School of Printing, Management and Sciences; and the Technical and Education Center of the Graphic Arts. The Center for Imaging Science was established to meet a growing need in gov- ernment and industry for highly skilled scientists in Imaging Science. The Center provides research support and contract work as well as undergraduate and graduate programs in graphic arts, photographic science, remote sensing, digital imaging, and optics.
