Focused on Teaching & Learning, One Student at a Time

Summer 2014

President’s Message

“Focused on Teaching & Learning, One Student at a Time” is not merely Quincy College’s motto. It is, as well, the embodiment of the way in which we conduct ourselves each and every day, including the manner in which all students, faculty, and staff are regarded and engaged. As such, everything that we do is focused upon teaching and learning and the primacy of the teaching/learning relationship. In the past few years, we have increased full time faculty ranks by approximately thirty percent, moved to new and greatly improved facilities in Quincy, expanded facilities and offerings in Plymouth, and greatly increased both instructional and non-instructional support and classroom technology. At Quincy College, students can find all the resources they need to have a successful college experience.

As Quincy College moves forward, we will remain focused on teaching and learning by updating our academic offerings, developing new academic programs, and increasing student engagement and retention. I welcome you to take a class with our dedicated faculty and discover why students choose Quincy College for a high quality, affordable education. Here at Quincy College people often hear me say, “Education is the passport that allows one to travel through and navigate our society.” I am proud to say that now, more than ever, Quincy College is here to assist people in earning that passport.

Thank you and good day.

Sincerely,

Peter H. Tsaffaras, J.D., President

Military & Veterans ProgramsQuincy College is pleased to welcome veterans of the United States Armed Forces, and their loved ones, to our college. We look forward to meeting your educational needs, and assisting you in navigating your education benefits with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. We take pride in our ability to provide personalized assistance to all veterans and veteran dependents.

Through the Quincy College Veterans Discount Program, Veterans may enroll in either Liberal Arts or Professional Programs classes at a discounted rate. Veterans are eligible for this reduced rate regardless of the number of courses they take in a semester. The veteran discount program is not funded by the state or federal government; therefore, veterans who are eligible for education benefits through the VA may also receive the Quincy College discounted rate.

Quincy College is a proud member of the Service Members Opportunity Colleges Consortium (SOC); we are happy to review both military and college transcripts, as well as CLEP and DANTES exam scores, for transfer credit according to American Council of Education (ACE) recommendations.

Veterans, veteran dependents, and active duty service members are able to use their federal education benefits here at Quincy College. Programs we are approved to admin-ister include Post 9/11 GI Bill, Montgomery GI Bill, Vocational Rehabilitation, Veterans Retraining Assistance Program (VRAP), Military Spouse Career Advancement Accounts (MyCAA), and Tuition Assistance.

Students may contact Christopher Sawin, Quincy College Military & Veterans’ Services Specialist at [email protected] or 617-405-5928 for assistance with their benefits.

Financial AidThe Financial Aid Office at Quincy College helps students explore funding options to finance their education. Some of the services the Financial Aid Office offers include: filing the FAFSA application; checking eligibility for awards, loans, and grants; budgeting college costs and fees; and providing information about various funding sources. These sources may include, but are not limited to, Massachusetts State Scholarships, Pell Grants, President’s Scholarship for Excellence and Service, Federal Stafford Loans, Plus Loans, Work Study, and The General Infantry Bill. Students may also access information and complete their applications online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. For information about Financial Aid, contact the Financial Aid Office at 617-984-1620 or visit the office at Presidents Place, Room 115, at 1250 Hancock Street in Quincy Center.

Refund ScheduleStudents are eligible for a tuition refund should they decide to stop attending a class. Students must fill out an add/drop form and submit it to the Enrollment Services Office during business hours for the refund to be certified and processed. No add/drops are allowed over the phone. There is a charge of $35 for each course dropped. To receive a “W” and avoid a failing grade for a course, students must submit a Withdrawal Form before the official withdrawal dates.

Refunds are calculated from the first class meeting and determined by the schedule maintained by the Registrar’s Office.

For more information, please contact the Registrar’s Office at 617-984-1650.


Financial Aid, Refunds and Deposits

Life-Long Learning Courses*Students are officially enrolled when the College receives payment and processes the registration. At times, enrollment fluctuates and courses may be cancelled. Cancellations will result in a full refund. Withdrawals prior to the first meeting will be refunded less a $35 processing fee. Failure to attend a class does not constitute withdrawal. For courses, workshops and institutes that meet more than once, refunds are eligible according to the following schedule: after the first meeting, but before the second meeting — full refund less $50 fee; after the second meeting, but before the third meeting — 50% refund; and at the start of the third meeting — no refund.

*This policy is subject to change.

Nursing and Natural & Health Sciences Seat DepositsThe seat deposit is a good faith payment by students to reserve their seats in the program and strengthen their resolve and commitment to attend. Once students enroll in the program, their seat deposits are applied toward their tuition. However, if students decide not to attend, they forfeit their seat deposits. Seat deposit refunds are approved at the discretion of the President on a case by case basis due to exceptional circumstances.

Refund checks are processed by the Business Office. For more information on the status of a refund, contact the Business Office at 617-984-1630.
