Classes for students younger than 16 years old are offered through Kids in College and Family Time Intergenerational courses. For intergenerational courses, all youths must register and be accompanied by a registered adult. Out-of-county residents are charged additional fees. Tuition waivers for students with disabilities receiving SSI or SSDI are available for some noncredit, continuing education workforce development and life skills courses. Only enrolled students may attend class. Register for noncredit courses using your AACC ID number or last four digits of your Social Security number to avoid duplicate records and mailings. Parents registering their children must use the child’s student ID. COURSE COSTS FOR NONCOUNTY RESIDENTS The price stated at the end of each course description is the total cost, including registration, tuition and supplies, lab or other fees, if any, for county residents. There is an additional charge of $10 per noncredit course for residents of other Maryland counties and $25 per course for out-of-state residents. A business or agency located in Anne Arundel County, which pays tuition for a nonresident employee/ student, is not subject to the surcharge. Courses that do not follow these guidelines have costs indicated with course information. COURSE COSTS FOR SENIORS Maryland residents age 60 or older by the first day of class may have the tuition portion of the course cost waived for courses which do not have a dagger (†) next to the price and are not senior-only classes. For these tuition-waived courses, seniors will be responsible for paying a $7 per course, course fee, any fees indicated in the course description and the out-of-county fee if applicable. Seniors residing out of state must pay the full course cost (including tuition, registration and course lab fee) plus the out-of-county and the out-of-state fees. For all courses marked with a dagger (†) next to the course price, senior students must pay full course cost (including tuition, registration and course fee) plus outof-county and out-of-state fees, if applicable. For senior-only courses, seniors age 60 or older may take an unlimited number of courses for $80 per threemonth cycle plus supply fees if listed and out-of-county and out-of-state fees if applicable. Students age 55-59 pay $40 tuition per course in addition to the $80 threemonth cycle fee. For questions concerning the pricing for these courses, call 410-777-2325. 98 Maryland residents who are certified by the Social Security Administration as totally and permanently disabled (or retired due to disability) may be eligible to receive a tuition waiver for certain continuing education courses. Students who qualify for the waiver must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.fafsa.ed.gov, and submit a Certification for Noncredit Tuition Waiver formto the cashier’s office each year. More information (including the certification form and list of eligible courses) can be found online at www.aacc.edu/noncredit/ coursecost.cfm. Payment for noncredit courses is due at the time of registration. AACC accepts American Express, MasterCard, Visa, Discover, check, money order and cash. Cash is only accepted at the Records and Registration office on the Arnold campus. No refund will be given after the class has started. To receive a refund for a noncredit course that has not started, drop the course by mail, in person or through MyAACC. Your written request must be received by the Registrar, Records and Registration office, before the first class session. FINDING YOUR NONCREDIT CLASS You may check your class locations through MyAACC (MyCourses), by checking your printed course confirmation or by calling 410-777-2325. Some class locations may not be assigned until a week before the class starts. Classroom assignments at the public schools and other sites will be prominently displayed and an on-site coordinator will be available to assist you in finding your class. COURSE CANCELLATIONS The college may cancel a course that lacks sufficient enrollment a week before it is scheduled to begin. When a course is canceled, we make every effort to notify all registered students promptly. A full refund is processed automatically unless the student elects to transfer to another course or section. You can help avoid cancellations by registering at least two weeks before the starting date. W W W. A ACC . E D U / CO N E D WAIT LIST PROCEDURES The wait list is an electronic roster of eligible students who are waiting for a seat to become available in a closed (filled) section. The wait list stores names in order of request to allow access to seats that may become available. There are no wait list limits for Continuing Education/noncredit courses. If a seat becomes available in a Continuing Education/noncredit course, the system will automatically call you at your phone number on record.

CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS (CEUS) A CEU (Continuing Education Unit) is a measure used by continuing education programs. CEUs are awarded to the student upon successful completion as a permanent record of training and professional development activities. While it is not an academic credit, many licensed professions require this nationally recognized way to quantify time spent, in order to obtain or renew industry certification or licenses. In some industries or professions, CEUs can mean increased compensation or recognition. One CEU is equal to 10 contact hours or participation and is awarded by the college. Many professionals are required to participate in continuing education activities on a yearly basis. The required number of CEUs varies by profession. AACC is proud to be able to offer continuing education units (CEUs) for both online and In the classroom, many of the online courses are offered on a monthly basis, allowing the student to meet renewal deadlines year-round. DIGITAL BADGES b AACC’s digital badges are online validations of skill, achievement, competency or completion of a continuing education course. Visit www.aacc.edu/badges. CREDIT/NONCREDIT SHARE v Selected courses may be taken for either academic credit or on a noncredit basis. For credit registration information, call 410-777-2242.

However, with the instructor’s written permission, you may transfer to credit status during the first three weeks (or nine classroom hours) of the course. Continuing education staff can explain the simple transfer procedures. SYSTEM DOWNTIME AACC is committed to providing current and progressive technology to enhance and support the college mission.

R E G I S T R AT I O N I N F O R M AT I O N 410 - 777 - 2325 99 AACC Foundation MISSION The Anne Arundel Community College Foundation Inc. is a 501(c)3 corporation charged with the mission of securing and stewarding private funds to enhance AACC's educational endeavors. The foundation supports AACC to maintain its standing as a premier learning community whose students and graduates are among the best prepared citizens and workers of the world. WAYS TO INVEST When you invest in AACC with gifts of cash, appreciated securities, real property or through an estate gift, you are ensuring continuity of educational excellence at Anne Arundel Community College. We encourage you to consider a gift to the AACC Foundation – which exists solely to provide financial resources to the college and its priorities. ANNUAL GIFTS Annual gifts are the cornerstone of the AACC Foundation fundraising effort. They provide needed funds for special programs and projects that support Anne Arundel Community College. TAX-FREE GIVING THROUGH INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS (IRA) If you are older than age 70½, the federal government permits you to roll over amounts up to $100,000 from your IRA to charity without claiming any increased income or paying any additional tax. Simply contact your IRA custodian and request that an amount be transferred to the AACC Foundation Inc. GIFTS TO SUPPORT STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS One of our greatest needs is for student scholarships.
