Student Responsibilities

General Responsibility
As a student, you are responsible for being informed of all policies and procedures required to attend TTC, most of which are found in this Catalog and the TTC Student Handbook/Planner. You may review all TTC’s policies and procedures in the offices of the Registrar, Student Activities, vice president for Student Services, and Counseling and Career Development Services. College regulations will not be waived because a student pleads ignorance of established policies and procedures. If you are unsure of any procedure, you should seek help or clarification from the Registrar’s office or an academic advisor.

Academic policies and procedures are subject to change. If changes occur, they will be published in the next Catalog, Student Handbook or Policies and Procedures manual, all of which can be accessed on TTC’s Web site.

Placement Testing Changes
Entry-level placement test score requirements are subject to change.

Admission and Financial Aid Documents
As an applicant to TTC, you are responsible for making sure that all required documents are sent to the College by the appropriate deadlines.

All documents submitted to the College become the permanent property of TTC. Therefore, admission and financial aid documents will not be copied for or distributed to students by the College.

Student Debts
The S.C. Tax Commission supports TTC by collecting any delinquent accounts or debts owed by former or current students from students’ tax refunds.

The Setoff Debt Collection Act of 1988 allows the S.C. Tax Commission to assist any state agency in the collection of any delinquent account or debt. For more information, call 843.574.6220 or 843.574.6219.

Returned Checks
If you give TTC a bad check to pay any fee, you will be assessed a service charge in accordance with current law and will be given 10 days to pay the fees and any penalty fee. During this 10-day period your classes may be canceled. If the check and service fee have not been paid within 10 days, TTC may take legal action to collect the check with court costs and fees added to the amount of the original check.

The Code of Laws of South Carolina provides for a fine of not less than $50 or a term of imprisonment for drawing and uttering dishonored checks.

Disabilities-Related Needs
The College complies with relevant provisions of SEC 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act. Appropriate, reasonable accommodations based on current medical and/or psychological documentation can be provided. If you need and qualify for these services, contact Services for Students with Disabilities at 843.574.6131 or TTY hearing-impaired phone 843.574.6351 for more information and assistance.
