ADULT HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA PROGRAMThe Adult High School Diploma Program is designed for students 18 years of age or older who wish to complete the requirements for a high school diploma or prepare to take the GED. Those under 18 who can benefit from instruction are also allowed to enroll. Any student enrolled in a day high school (regular or continuation) must meet the following criteria in order to take classes in MiraCosta’s Adult High School Diploma Program. He/she must be a credit or CAHSEE deficient student, 17 years old or older, who has attended at least five semesters of high school. Day high school students must also present a Concurrent Enrollment Permit signed by their day high school principal, counselor, and parent. The forms are available at high school counseling offices, the Community Learning Center (CLC), MiraCosta’s Admissions Offices, and online at www.miracosta.edu/ahsdp. In order to place students in courses that best meet their needs, individual skills will be assessed. Those who need to improve their reading to be successful in courses for high school credit may take courses designed for that purpose. English, reading, and math courses are also appropriate for persons who do not need a high school diploma but wish to increase their skills in preparation for college classes, for employment or advancement in the workplace, or for personal growth.

The district, and each individual who represents the district, shall provide access to its services, classes, and programs without regard to

accent, age, ancestry, citizenship status, color, disability, economic status, ethnic group identification, gender, marital status, medical condition, national origin, parental status, race, religion, sexual orientation or veteran status, or because he or she is perceived to have one or more of the foregoing characteristics, or based on association with a person or group with one or more of these actual or perceived characteristics.

All members of the college community can present complaints regarding alleged violations of this policy and have their complaints heard in accordance with the Title 5 regulations and those of other agencies that administer state and federal laws regarding nondiscrimination.

Equal Employment Opportunity

The MiraCosta Community College District is committed to the principles of equal employment opportunity and will implement a comprehensive program to put those principles into practice.

The District is committed to a continuing good faith effort to ensure that all qualified applicants for employment and employees have full and equal access to employment opportunity, and are not subjected to discrimination in any program or activity of the district on the basis of accent, age, ancestry, citizenship status,

Family Educational rights and privacy act of 1974 (FErpa)

All student records of MiraCosta College are kept in accordance with the provisions of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.

A student may request access to those campus records which personally identify the student; the student may challenge the accuracy of the record or the appropriateness of its retention in the college records. Regardless of age, student consent is needed for the release of records covered by the act to outside parties except for those agencies entitled to access under the provisions of the act (e.g., college officials; other schools; federal, educational and auditing officers; and requestors in connection with the application or receipt of financial aid). These provisions apply to records received and used after November 19, 1974.

Amendments to the act permit the college to release what is called “directory information,” provided that the student or former student has not specifically asked the college to refrain from releasing such information. Check with the Admissions and Records Office for specific directory information and notification of student rights.

If you wish directory information not to be released without your prior written consent, please indicate on the college application or send a signed request to the Admissions and Records Office, Sta. 10A, MiraCosta College, 1 Barnard Drive, Oceanside CA 92056.

Student right-to-Know rates

In compliance with the Student-Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-542), it is the policy of the MiraCosta Community College District to make available its completion and transfer rates to all current and prospective students. Beginning in fall 2004, a cohort of all certificate-, degree-, and transfer-seeking first-time, full-time students were tracked

over a three-year period. Their completion and transfer rates are listed below. These rates do not represent the success rates of the entire student population at MiraCosta College, nor do they account for student outcomes occurring after this three-year tracking period.

Based upon the cohort defined above, 28.99 percent attained a certificate or degree or became “transfer prepared” during a three year period, from fall 2004 to spring 2007. Students who are “transfer prepared” have completed 56 transferable units with a GPA of 2.0 or better.

Based on the cohort defined above, 23.19 percent transferred to another postsecondary institution (UC, CSU, or another California community college) prior to attaining a degree, certificate, or becoming “transfer-prepared” during a five-semester period, from spring 2005 to spring 2007.

Selective Service—important notice For Male Students

Federal law requires men 18 through 25 years of age to be registered with the Selective Service System (SSS). The law applies to male citizens and immigrant aliens, but not to foreign students who hold valid student visas. Registration forms are available at any U.S. Post Office or online at www.sss.gov.

Federal Tax Credit

In accordance with federal tax credit legislation, MiraCosta College will mail a verification 1098T form at the end of January to each registered student. Information will also be reported to the IRS. If you did not provide your correct Social Security number to the Admissions and Records Office, complete a change of information form to ensure accurate reporting to the IRS. Please check with your tax preparer to determine if you are eligible to take advantage of this credit and the amount you may deduct. 1098 information may be accessed on your SURF account by selecting Finances.

Smoking and Drug use

MiraCosta College allows smoking in designated smoking areas only and imposes sanctions against the use of illegal drugs. Designated smoking areas are clearly marked with signs posted at each campus; the campus maps in this schedule show where these areas are located.
