The idea of “citizen-soldiers,” trained to take up arms for their country in time of conflict but prepared to serve with integrity and discipline in all walks of life, has been central to its mission from its early years. In December of 1822, following the discovery of a slave revolt planned by Denmark Vesey, the South Carolina state legislature passed “An Act to Establish a Competent Force as a Municipal Guard for the Protection of the City of Charleston and Vicinity.” The original Citadel, intended to serve as an arsenal and guardhouse, was constructed near the site of Charleston’s Revolutionary War fortifications. Located just north of Calhoun Street, it stood in a neighborhood of free blacks, working-class whites, and slaves, where it provided a visible reminder of city authority. It was initially intended to house a municipal guard, but was instead guarded first by United States troops and then, during and after the Nullification Crisis in the early 1830s, by local troops. In 1833, the legislature voted to consolidate arms and munitions at two locations, the Citadel in Charleston and the Arsenal in Columbia. In 1842, they voted to replace the local guard with students. Half of the students would pay tuition; the other half would be “beneficiary cadets,” young men selected from among the poorer residents of each county, whose tuition would be paid by the state. Importantly, all cadets took the same classes and performed the same duties, while uniforms erased social distinctions and rank was based on merit alone. The inclusion of cadets from all counties helped unify the state politically, while the spaces available to beneficiary cadets made The Citadel one of the only places in the state where the sons of poorer citizens could gain a college education. In their curriculum and military training the schools were modeled on the United States Military Academy at West Point, Norwich (University), and the Virginia Military Institute. The first classes were taught in 1843. Two years later the Citadel and Arsenal were combined, so that fourth-class cadets (freshmen) attended classes at the Arsenal, then transferred to the Citadel for their remaining three years. From the beginning, The Citadel was known for its high academic standards. Cadets were required to take courses in history, literature, logic, French, moral philosophy, and elocution, a liberal arts education that would prepare them to serve as leaders in public life. Many entered careers in law, medicine, and education. Others were called to religious service, including Bishop Ellison Capers, class of 1857, and William Porcher DuBose, class of 1855, one of the most influential theologians in the Episcopal tradition. Cadets also studied the practical sciences, including chemistry, physics, civil and military engineering, mathematics, astronomy, geology, and surveying. Among the school’s early �The Citadel alumni, E. L. Heriot, Class of 1847, conducted the first railroad survey west and south of the Rio Grande River, while T. J. Arnold, Class of 1852, designed the harbor and wharves of San Francisco and Oakland, California. Students also studied infantry and artillery tactics, and helped train the state’s Palmetto Regiment for service in the Mexican-American War. The Civil War and Reconstruction When South Carolina seceded from the Union in December 1860, federal troops were moved from Fort Moultrie to Fort Sumter. To protect the entrance to Charleston Harbor, the Governor of South Carolina ordered a fortification to be constructed on Morris Island. On January 9, 1861, Citadel cadets who were stationed on Morris Island fired on a U.S. steamer, the Star of the West, which had been sent to re-supply Fort Sumter. On January 28, 1861, the Corps of Cadets were incorporated into the military organization of the state as The Battalion of State Cadets. The cadets took part in eight engagements in defense of Charleston and South Carolina. In recognition of their service, the Office of the South Carolina Adjutant General authorized The Citadel to carry the following battle and campaign streamers: Star of the West, January 9, 1861 Wappoo Cut, November 1861 James Island, June 1862 Charleston and Vicinity, July to October 1863 James Island, June 1864 Tulifinny, December 1864 James Island, December 1864 to February 1865 Williamston, May 1865 The college remained in operation throughout much of the war, and cadets were eligible for commissions in the state’s military upon graduation. Of the 224 graduates living at the time of the Civil War, 209 entered the Confederate service. Four graduates achieved the rank of Brigadier General: Johnson Hagood, Ellison Capers, Evander Law and Micah Jenkins. Citadel graduates were involved in the major battles of the war, including Fort Sumter, First Manassas, Shiloh, Vicksburg, Antietam, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Atlanta, and Petersburg. The Arsenal Academy burned during the fall of Columbia in 1865 and never reopened. The Citadel was occupied by federal troops when Union forces entered Charleston in early 1865. After the end of Reconstruction Citadel alumni, who had organized the Association of Graduates in 1852, pressured the legislature to reopen the school. Although many legislators questioned the need for a state-supported military college in the absence of munitions to guard, the support of alumni and the Washington Light Infantry, as well as the school’s renewed commitment to educating beneficiary cadets, ultimately saved the institution. It reopened in 1882. �History of The Citadel 9 Military Service Citadel alumni have served in all major military actions in which the United States has been involved since the late nineteenth century. Seventeen graduates served with volunteer regiments and five alumni served with the Regular Army in the Spanish-American War in 1898. The National Defense Act of 1916 began the formation of Reserve Officers Training Corps in U.S. colleges and offered the opportunity for recent graduates to enter the Regular Army. 315 Citadel graduates served in World War I; of the class of 1917, all 33 entered military service. During World War II, The Citadel had the distinction of having the highest percentage of its students enter the military service of any college, with the exception of the service academies. Of 2,976 living graduates in 1946, 2,927 had served their country. Before the end of the war, 279 Citadel men had given their lives. Citadel graduates participated in all major campaigns of World War II, from Pearl Harbor through the major engagements in the European, North African, and Pacific Theaters, and at sea. A number of Citadel graduates fought in the Philippines and endured the Bataan Death March. The Citadel also provided wartime training to over 10,000 men under a contract with the War Department. In the Korean War, roughly 1500 alumni were on active duty, and 31 graduates were killed in action. Sixty-five Citadel men gave their lives in Vietnam, and several graduates were prisoners of war in North Vietnam. Graduates also displayed their valor in the liberation of Grenada and peacekeeping operations in Beirut, Lebanon, and in the Balkans. During the Persian Gulf War 22 cadets served with Reserve and National Guard units; alumni served in both the Active and Reserve components of the Armed Forces. Citadel alumni, veteran students, and current cadets assigned to activated Reserve and National Guard units have served in both Afghanistan and Iraq. Twenty Citadel alumni have given their lives for their country in the War on Terror. Citadel Expansion The Corps of Cadets has grown from 43 students enrolled at the Arsenal and Citadel in 1843 to 2,356 in 2020. With 40 percent of the Corps now coming from out of state, and a student body that represents 27 different countries, the college draws students from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. The Citadel has attracted international students since the 1920s, when Chinese students entered as cadets, sponsored by the Boxer Indemnity Fund. Most went on to serve in the Chinese Army, several achieving the rank of Brigadier General. The Chinese cadets were followed by groups of students from Thailand in the 1960s, Iran in the 1970s, and Jordan in the 1970s and 1980s. Connections forged during international students’ college years could grow into lifelong bridges: Charles G. Huie later returned to the U.S. to conduct research as an engineer with the U.S. Army; Andrew Chinn became a business owner in the U.S. The first African-American cadet, Charles D. Foster, entered the Citadel in 1966, three years after South Carolina began integrating its public colleges and universities. He graduated in 1970, followed by Joseph Shine in 1971; six African-American students graduated in 1973. African-American students were often targeted with racial slurs and threats of racial violence. At the same time, the unique culture of the Corps of Cadets, and particularly the shared experience of the fourth-class system, helped promote integration across racial lines. Today, �The Citadel black and African-American students make up 7% of the Corps of Cadets, and 23% of the Corps are minorities. Women began attending The Citadel in 1949 as part of the summer school program, and were admitted to evening classes in 1966. In 1995, Shannon Faulkner, through court orders, became the first woman to matriculate into the Corps of Cadets. She resigned a few days later, but the next year, following a United States Supreme Court ruling on a similar case involving the Virginia Military Institute, the Citadel Board of Visitors voted to revoke the male-only admissions policy of the Corps of Cadets. In August of 1996, four females matriculated with the class of 2000. Two of these resigned amid allegations of hazing and harassment. The lawsuits and negative publicity associated with this incident marked a difficult time for the reputation and image of The Citadel and its alumni. Nancy Mace received her degree three years later, becoming the first female graduate of the Corps of Cadets. She was followed by Petra Lovetinska, who became the first female cadet to receive a commission in the U.S. Armed Forces. Today, women make up 9.7% of the Corps of Cadets. Women and minorities are an integral part of the Corps, many occupying key positions in the cadet chain-of-command, varsity athletics, and campus organizations. They also form an important part of The Citadel’s strong alumni network and have served on the Citadel Board of Visitors. Veteran students, too, have become important contributors to the Citadel’s academic life. Veterans were first admitted as civilian students under the GI Bill® at the end of World War II; the current veterans program was established in 2007 and 68 veterans are currently enrolled as day students. In 1968, the Citadel began granting graduate degrees through an evening program. The program grew until 1994, when the Citadel Board of Visitors approved the foundation of the College of Graduate and Professional Studies (now known as the Citadel Graduate College, or CGC). A coeducational institution from its conception, the CGC is now a mainstay of the Citadel’s academic environment, offering 28 graduate degree programs and 26 graduate certificate programs. The Citadel’s growth has led to the need for an ever-larger physical campus. By the end of World War I, the school had outgrown its location on Marion Square and the City of Charleston donated land, previously the site of the South Carolina Interstate and West Indian Exposition, for a new campus. The current campus opened in 1922 with Padgett-Thomas Barracks, an infirmary, two wings of Bond Hall, and other auxiliary buildings. State- and federally funded building projects during the Depression included Summerall Chapel and the distinctive Works Progress Administration faculty houses. The college continues to expand as it serves a growing student body. Leading the Community and the World In addition to a long history of military service, the school’s citizen-soldier ideal prepares graduates for service and leadership in civil capacities. Alumni have gone on to pursue distinguished careers in areas including law, politics, medicine, engineering, education, business, and law enforcement. Ernest F. Hollings, Class of 1942, served as South Carolina Governor and United States �History of The Citadel 11 Senator. Joseph P. Riley, Jr., Class of 1964, served ten consecutive terms as mayor of Charleston, overseeing a number of ambitious development projects. Alvah H. Chapman, Class of 1942, headed the influential Knight Ridder newspaper chain, while author Pat Conroy graduated in the Class of 1967. The Citadel and its graduates have also been active in world affairs. In addition to serving as Governor of South Carolina, John C. West, Class of 1942, served as U.S. Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, while Langhorne A. Motley, Class of 1960, served as U.S. Ambassador to Brazil and as Assistant Secretary of State for Latin American Affairs. Today’s Citadel builds on this distinguished legacy, preparing students to lead with integrity in an increasingly interconnected world. Through a growing study abroad program, students develop language skills and gain experience working with a range of cultures and countries. The current honor system, reinstituted in 1955, enshrines the integrity of students and alumni as a cornerstone of The Citadel’s values. During their academic careers and beyond, Citadel men and women put into practice the core values and principles of the institution. SUPERINTENDENTS /PRESIDENTS OF THE CITADEL Captain William F.

Statement of Vision Achieving excellence in the education and development of principled leaders. �General Information 13 Core Values First and foremost, honor includes adherence to the Honor Code of The Citadel. A cadet “will not lie, cheat or steal, nor tolerate those who do.” The commitment to honor extends beyond the gates of The Citadel and is a life-long obligation to moral and ethical behavior. In addition, honor includes integrity, “doing the right thing when no one is watching.” Finally, honorable behavior includes exercising the moral courage to “do the right thing when everyone is watching.” The Honor Code is the foundation of our academic enterprise. Duty First and foremost, duty means to accept and accomplish the responsibilities assigned to me. At The Citadel, my primary duty is to perform academically and then to perform as a member of the Corps of Cadets and the campus community. I accept the consequences associated with my performance and actions. Once I have held myself accountable for my actions, then I will hold others accountable for their actions. Finally, duty means that others can depend on me to complete my assignments and to assist them with their assignments. Duty is also a call to serve others before self. Respect First and foremost, respect means to treat other people with dignity and worth --the way you want others to treat you. Respect for others eliminates any form of prejudice, discrimination, or harassment (including but not limited to rank, position, age, race, color, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, physical attributes, etc.). In addition, respect for others means to respect the positions of those in authority which include faculty, staff, administrators, active duty personnel, and the leadership of the Corps of Cadets. Finally, respect includes a healthy respect for one’s self. Mission As a higher education institution, The Citadel’s mission is to educate and develop our students to become principled leaders in all walks of life by instilling the core values of The Citadel in a disciplined and intellectually challenging environment. A unique feature of this environment for the South Carolina Corps of Cadets is the sense of camaraderie produced through teamwork and service to others while following a military lifestyle. The Citadel strives to produce graduates who have insight into issues, ideas, and values that are of importance to society. It is equally important that Citadel graduates are capable of both critical and creative thinking, have effective communication skills, can apply abstract concepts to concrete situations, and possess the methodological skills needed to gather and analyze information. Throughout its history, The Citadel’s primary purpose has been to educate undergraduates as members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets and to prepare them for post-graduate positions of leadership through academic programs of recognized excellence supported by the best features of a military environment. �The Citadel The cadet lifestyle provides a structured environment that supports growth and development of each student’s intellect, discipline, physical fitness, and moral and ethical values. The four pillars which define The Citadel experience for cadets consist of these four developmental dimensions. A complementary purpose of The Citadel, realized through The Citadel Graduate College, is to provide the citizens of the Lowcountry and the State of South Carolina opportunities for professional development by offering a broad range of educational programs of recognized excellence at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. These programs are designed to accommodate the needs of non-traditional students seeking traditional and demanding academic challenges. Institutional Characteristics. The Citadel is a coeducational, comprehensive, public, four-year institution whose primary undergraduate student body consists of more than 2,400 members of the Corps of Cadets, all of whom reside on campus. The primary service area for these students is regional, with approximately half of each freshman class coming from South Carolina. The Citadel, however, does draw undergraduate students from all parts of the United States and many foreign countries. The college offers a wide range of baccalaureate degree programs (Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, and Bachelor of Science in Nursing) in the humanities, social and natural sciences, business administration, engineering, and education. These academic programs prepare graduates of the Corps of Cadets for a variety of careers; about half of these graduates enter business and the professions, a third or more enter the military and government service, and the remainder go directly into graduate and professional study. Many graduates choose to pursue professional or graduate degrees later in their careers. Through its undergraduate and graduate programs, The Citadel Graduate College serves a degree-seeking population of approximately 1,300. The primary service area is the South Carolina Lowcountry. The Citadel Graduate College offers eight baccalaureate degree programs (Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice, Bachelor of Arts in Political Science, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, and Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Bachelor of Science in Social Studies Education), seven graduate degree programs (Master of Arts, Master of Science, Master of Arts in Education, Master of Arts in Teaching, Master of Education, Master of Business Administration, and Specialist in Education), and eight certification programs. Meeting the needs of the South Carolina Lowcountry in terms of instruction, public service, and research, including such initiatives as cooperative programs with other educational institutions, is an important part of The Citadel’s mission. Together, the Corps of Cadets and The Citadel Graduate College enroll approximately 3,700 students, about two-thirds of whom come from South Carolina. In its education programs, The Citadel acknowledges and endorses the teacherscholar ideal, recognizing that the excellence of all of its academic programs is dependent upon the quality of its faculty. This ideal is pursued through teaching and lecturing, researching, writing, publishing, and public service. The Citadel’s faculty also address audiences beyond the college by sharing their knowledge with other scholars and with the public. Four-Year Principled Leader Development Model �General Information 4th class 3rd class 2nd class 1st class 15 Prepare Engage Serve Lead The Purpose of The Citadel’s Military Environment The Citadel seeks to provide the best qualities of a military and disciplined environment to support the growth and development of character, fitness, and moral and ethical principles, thereby preparing its students to meet the requirements of citizens and especially of leaders. From the first year, with the Fourth-Class System, through the senior year, the military environment requires additional duties and responsibilities not normally found on a college campus. The military environment at The Citadel also attempts to draw out and cultivate such values as truth, honor, integrity, and courage. Qualities of proper behavior and etiquette are stressed, and excellence in military bearing and appearance is taught. Whether in military or civilian life, the testimony of the value of this institution in service to the nation, state, and local communities is prominent. Official Communications Each Citadel student is assigned a Citadel e-mail address. Official communications are often sent electronically, and these communications will be sent to the cadet’s Citadel e-mail address. It is the responsibility of each student to check his/her Citadel e-mail regularly to ensure receipt of all official communications. �The Citadel Requirements for Admission The Citadel gives consideration to all applicants who meet the personal, physical, and educational requirements for admission to the Corps of Cadets. The Citadel seeks to enroll well-rounded, mature students whose motivation and educational achievements indicate that they are prepared to do college level work with a reasonable probability of success. Therefore, each admission portfolio is reviewed individually and must include at least the following: a. High School Record (courses, grades, class standing). The high school record provides insight into an applicant’s motivation, study habits, and scope of interest. Particular attention is given to grades earned in English, mathematics, science, history, social sciences, and foreign languages. b. College Entrance Examination Board Test Scores. Consideration is given to an applicant’s test scores on the College Board’s SAT or the American College Testing Program’s Assessment Exam (ACT). Although these test scores represent only one factor in the determination of an applicant’s acceptability, they tend to indicate the applicant’s educational development with respect to contemporaries; therefore, the applicant’s scores provide a reasonable evaluation of actual preparedness and potential to do college level work. c. The Citadel seeks to determine acceptability through a thorough evaluation of each applicant’s character, maturity, motivation, readiness for college, amenability to a regimented lifestyle, emotional stability, and potential to contribute to cadet life. Where any one of these factors is in question, the College may obtain additional information by means of interviews with the applicant and/or the applicant’s parents or other persons who know the candidate. If it is deemed necessary, The Citadel may request that the applicant present a written report on goals in life, reasons for choosing The Citadel, or reasons for choosing a particular major field of study. d. The Citadel reserves the right to cancel any academic acceptance or deposit if the recipient is found to be physically disqualified or if a subsequent academic or conduct record is found unsatisfactory. Entrance requirements must be fully met before the date of matriculation. No one will be admitted on probation. Admission Procedure Formal application for admission must be made by the applicant. The application for admission may be found online at www.citadel.edu/apply. The Citadel admits new students into the South Carolina Corps of Cadets only in the fall semester of each year. A nonrefundable application fee of $40 must accompany each application. All students are encouraged to apply no later than the fall semester of the prospective cadet’s senior year in high school. In addition, the applicant should make early arrangements to take the SAT or ACT test and have these test scores sent to The Citadel. Prospective cadets are responsible for having the official high school transcript sent directly to The Citadel’s Office of Admissions. �Requirements for Admission 17 The Citadel will advise the applicant of subsequent procedural actions as they are necessary. A deposit of $300 is required of all new cadets accepted for enrollment. This reservation fee is not refundable to those students who cancel their reservations after May 1. Each applicant must undergo a thorough medical examination. Final admission is contingent upon the results of this test. Only The Citadel’s forms, which are provided on-line by the Office of Admissions, may be used to report these results. The medical examination form shows the immunizations required by The Citadel. Legal Presence and Residency The State of South Carolina requires all state colleges and universities to verify each student’s legal presence in the United States. Prior to matriculation, each matriculant will be required to submit a photocopy of their birth certificate or valid U.S. passport. (A copy of the birth certificate must be provided as part of the preregistration information necessary for enrollment in the ROTC classes.) Personal Requirements Applicants to the South Carolina Corps of Cadets must meet the U.S. Army standard for height and weight (Army Reg 40-501) and must be physically qualified as determined by the Citadel Surgeon. An initial applicant who fails to meet the Citadel height/weight standard can gain admission by passing the Citadel body-fat standard (included on the Admissions website under Physical Fitness) using the U.S. Army technique for measuring body fat. The height/ weight standard for admissions is NOT the same as that required of a cadet. After matriculation, all freshmen fall under the Corps Physical Effectiveness Program and its standards as outlined in The White Book. Should an accident, injury, or serious illness in any way change the physical status of the applicant after acceptance but prior to arrival on campus, the Citadel Surgeon must be informed immediately. Any physical impairment could result in cancellation or postponement of admission. In addition, an applicant must meet the following personal requirements: a. Applicants must be at least 17 and less than 23 years of age on the day of matriculation at The Citadel. Exceptions to this policy are made only under extremely extenuating circumstances and with the permission of the Provost. b. Applicants may not be married. (If a cadet marries, he/she will be discharged immediately.) c. Applicants may not have childcare responsibilities for any minor child related to him/her by blood or marriage. (If a cadet assumes childcare responsibilities for any minor child related to him/her by blood or marriage, he/she will be discharged immediately.) d. Applicants must not have a record of conviction of a criminal offense showing poor moral character. e. Applicants are expected to be prepared physically for the rigors of cadet life. The Citadel Physical Fitness Test (CPFT) will be administered for record early in the fall semester. Individuals who do not meet standards will be required to participate in remedial physical training. �The Citadel High School Course Requirements All applicants for admission to The Citadel must be graduates of accredited high schools or must have satisfactorily completed the General Education Development (GED) examination. By this, the basic requirements for admission to the College comply with standards prescribed by the South Carolina Commission for Higher Education (CHE). The following secondary school subjects are required: Area Units English 4 All four units must have strong reading (including works of fiction and non-fiction), writing, communicating, and researching components. It is strongly recommended that students take two units that are literature based, including American, British, and World Literature. Mathematics 4 These units must include Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry. A fourth higher-level mathematics unit should be taken before or during the senior year. Foundations in Algebra and Intermediate Algebra may count together as a substitute for Algebra I if a student successfully completes Algebra II. No other courses may be substituted for the three required mathematics courses (Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry). Applicants who plan to major in mathematics, computer science, chemistry, physics, or engineering and who have not completed at least one-half unit of trigonometry will be required to complete MATH 119 with a grade of C or higher prior to enrolling in calculus. Laboratory Science 3 Two units must be taken in two different fields of the physical, earth or life sciences and selected from among biology, chemistry, or physics or earth science. The third unit may be from the same field as one of the first two units (biology, chemistry, or physics or earth science) or from any laboratory science for which biology, chemistry, physics, or earth science is a prerequisite. Courses in general or introductory science for which one of these four units is not a prerequisite will not meet this requirement. It is also strongly recommended that students desiring to pursue careers in science, mathematics, engineering or technology take one course in all three fields. Foreign 2 Two units of the same world language: Two units with a heavy emphasis on language acquisition �Requirements for Admission 19 Social Science 3 One unit of U.S. History, a half unit of Economics, and a half unit of Government are required. World History or Geography is strongly recommended Fine Arts 1 One unit in appreciation of, history of, or performance in one of the fine arts. This unit should be selected from among media/digital arts, dance, visual and spatial arts Elective 2 Two units must be taken as electives. A college preparatory course in Computer Science (i.e., one involving significant programming content, not simply keyboarding or using applications) is strongly recommended for this elective. Other acceptable electives include college preparatory courses in English; fine arts; foreign languages; social science; humanities; matematics; physical education; and laboratory science (courses for which biology, physics, or earth science is a prerequisite) Physical Education 1 One unit of physical education to include one semester of personal fitness and another semester in lifetime fitness. Exemption applies to students enrolled in Junior ROTC and for students exempted because of physical disability or for religious reasons Prior to entering The Citadel, each applicant should take steps to address any weaknesses in preparation in English or mathematics. The Citadel offers courses in these areas each summer. The Citadel’s Policy on Testing for Illegal Drugs The Citadel has a clear and unwavering policy of zero tolerance for drugs. Whether on campus or off, the possession, solicitation, distribution, sale, or use of hallucinogenic, narcotic, or other controlled drugs or substances, or any drug paraphernalia, (except in accordance with a legal prescription for such substance, drug, or paraphernalia for the student possessing or using it), will result in expulsion. This policy does not permit cadets to tolerate these actions by fellow cadets. In support of this policy, The Citadel reserves the right to test members of the Corps of Cadets periodically for the presence of illegal drugs and other controlled substances. Agreeing to participate in this program of testing for drugs is a condition of final admission to The Citadel. Refusal to participate in this testing may lead to expulsion from the college. �The Citadel Entrance Examinations All applicants for admission to The Citadel are required to take the College Board’s SAT or the American College Testing (ACT) Assessment Tests. If an applicant lists The Citadel on either the SAT or ACT examination, the test scores will be sent to The Citadel approximately 30 days after the tests are taken. An applicant should complete the required entrance examinations early in the student’s senior year in high school. Students from a foreign country whose native language is not English must receive satisfactory scores on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). Students who score less than 550 on the TOEFL paper exam or 79 on the computer exam are generally not eligible for academic acceptance. The TOEFL is prepared and administered by the Educational Testing Service of the College Entrance Examination Board and must be taken before March 1 of the spring preceding admission. In order to apply for these tests, the applicant may apply online. Test dates, registration information and deadlines may be found at the links below: SAT: https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/sat/register TOEFL: https://www.ets.org/toefl/test-takers/ibt/take/register/ ACT: https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/the-act/ registration.html Transfer Student Admissions A student who is applying for admission to the Corps of Cadets as a transfer student from another accredited college or university must have an official transcript sent directly from all colleges or universities previously attended to the Office of Admissions at The Citadel. The high school record and college entrance examination scores will also be considered. In addition to meeting all the personal requirements listed above for cadet admission, a transfer student must have at least a 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale) on all courses attempted. To be considered a transfer student, students must have earned a minimum of 24 hours of credit. Transfer students are subject to the Fourth-Class System. Please see the relevant information under the section entitled Military Policies. Transfer students pursuing a cadet degree are also subject to the requirement that they must reside in the Corps of Cadets for at least six full semesters or five semesters with one semester of approved study abroad. Home Schooled Student Admissions The Citadel will consider applications from qualified homeschooled students. Applicants from homeschool programs must meet the same requirements as traditional school students, including: • Must complete the South Carolina state college preparatory course prerequisite requirements; • Must submit a transcript that lists all courses taken, year completed, and level of course challenge (e.g., CP, Honors, AP, Dual Credit, etc.); • Homeschooled students from South Carolina must be registered with an accredited and recognized homeschool program. If not, a GED will be required. For non-resident applicants, if your state does not require an accredited program, The Citadel will consider those rules for admissions consideration. �Requirements for Admission 21 Credit by Examination Advanced Placement Program The Citadel awards advanced placement credit to applicants who score 3 or higher on appropriate examinations. Applicants desiring Advanced Placement credit must have the official score report sent directly to The Citadel from the College Board. A complete listing of course credits that may be earned through the AP program is found at https://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-credit-byexamination/advanced-placement-ap. International Baccalaureate Program The Citadel recognizes the International Baccalaureate (IB) and awards college credit for scores of 4 or higher on “higher level” examinations in the IB Program. The number of college credits will be determined by the score obtained. A complete listing of course credits that may be earned through the IB program is found at https://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-credit-by-examination/ international-baccalaureate-ib. Cambridge International The Citadel recognizes the Cambridge International AICE program is an international, advanced secondary curriculum equivalent to the British system of “A-Levels.” Students who wish to receive AICE credits should submit official transcripts to the Registrar’s Office who will have the transcript reviewed by the Department Head of the subject area. College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) CLEP enables students to establish, by examination, college credit at The Citadel. CLEP provides for recognition of college-level achievement acquired outside the conventional classroom. The Citadel will award credit to individuals achieving a score on a CLEP Subject Examination equal to the average exam scores of students who earned a grade of C in a regular college course in that subject. CLEP credit may not be earned for courses in which a student has attempted the relevant subject matter at any college or university, including The Citadel, prior to taking the CLEP exam. In addition, students successfully completing a CLEP exam may not earn credit for the equivalent course at The Citadel. Furthermore, credits earned through CLEP will not be counted as part of a student’s residency requirement for graduation. �The Citadel Each academic department determines the amount of credit for a CLEP examination awarded based on the subject matter taught in their courses. Students who wish to take one or more of these examinations should contact CLEP directly for information about testing sites. The Citadel does not award credit for the CLEP General Exam. The minimum required score for all CLEP computerbased exams is 50, which represents the performance of students who earn a grade of C in the corresponding college course. In addition, The Citadel only awards credit for the lecture portion of natural science courses. Students must complete the laboratory portion of science requirements on-campus. For Modern Languages, prior approval to take a CLEP exam to satisfy a language requirement must be approved by the head of the Department of Modern Languages. A complete listing of course for which credit may be awarded through CLEP is found at https://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-credit-by-examination/clep. DANTES Subject Standardized Tests (DSST) DSST is a national testing program that offers students the opportunity to take exams in order to obtain college-level credit. DSST offers more than 35 exams in multiple subject areas. The Citadel awards college credit for students who receive a passing score of 400 on each exam taken. DSST credit may not be earned for courses in which a student has attempted the relevant subject matter at any college or university, including The Citadel, prior to taking the DSST exam. In addition, students successfully completing a DSST exam may not earn credit for the equivalent course at The Citadel. Furthermore, credits earned through DSST will not be counted as part of a student’s residency requirement for graduation. A complete listing of courses for which credit may be awarded through DSST is found at https://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-credit-by-examination/dsst �Academic Policies 23 Academic Policies Any exceptions to policies stated in this catalog, purported to have been made verbally to a student by an official of the college, are null and void unless documented with a signed statement from the college official authorized to make the exception. This catalog is not an unchangeable contract, but an announcement of the current policies. Implicit in each student’s matriculation at The Citadel is an unwritten agreement to comply with the institution’s rules and regulations, which The Citadel may modify to ensure the quality of its academic programs. When graduation requirements are changed, students will be informed in writing. Every effort will be made to ensure that the new requirements can be met by the student’s original expected graduation date. Catalog of Record The catalog bearing the number of the academic year in which cadets enter The Citadel will be their catalog of record for matters of academic policy (summer sessions will not be considered for this purpose). When a cadet is readmitted after an absence of at least three academic semesters (summer sessions will not be considered as semesters for this purpose), the catalog bearing the number of the academic year in which the student is readmitted will be the catalog of record for matters of academic policy and graduation requirements. Laptop Policy All cadets and students are required to have a personal laptop. Citadel students will need a personal laptop for use in a number of Citadel classes. Additionally, the Citadel is a Microsoft campus; computers must be compatible with Office 365. The Citadel recommends Windows laptops; Apple Macintosh laptops are acceptable when configured to meet the specified software requirements. A note on Netbooks/Chromebooks: Netbooks are suitable for basic internet browsing and word processing. They do not satisfy the Citadel’s laptop policy. Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: “A” Superior “B” Very Good “C” Satisfactory; Acceptable “D” Marginal; Passing “F” Unsatisfactory “P” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that do not carry credit hours to designate passing performance. “S” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that carry credit hours to designate that a grade of “A,” “B,” or “C” has been earned and credit has been awarded. �The Citadel “U” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses to designate that a grade of “D” or “F” has been earned and no credit has been awarded. “W” Withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline. After that time, students will receive the grade of “F” should they fail to complete the course or complete it unsuccessfully. Under extenuating circumstances, the grade of “W” may be awarded after the official deadline at the discretion of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs after consultation with the instructor and requesting student. Supporting evidence is the responsibility of the student and must be submitted in writing to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. “I” An Incomplete is awarded when course requirements have been very nearly met but for authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. To be eligible for the grade of “I,” students must be passing at the time they are forced to terminate their participation in the course. Students who are not passing at the time they are forced to terminate their participation will receive the grade of “F” in the course. The grade of “I” must be removed within the first thirty class days of the next full semester, or the “I” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the Incomplete is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “I.” A student is not eligible for Dean’s List or Gold Star awards until Incompletes are removed. “IP” Grade assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed in the next full semester, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Should a student fail to complete a semester or summer session for any reason, the grade in each course in which the student is then enrolled shall be “F,” “I,” or “W” as determined by the individual faculty member in consultation with the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. No numerical symbol, bracket, or percentage is assigned the equivalent of any grade. Arbitrary distribution of grades according to some formula or curve is not permitted. However, by means of departmental supervision and consultation among instructors, every effort is made to obtain consistent grading standards within the department or school. End-of-the-semester grade reports and midterm progress reports are made available electronically through BANNER Self-Service. �Academic Policies 25 Grade-Point Average Computation For purposes of ascertaining a grade-point average, grades are weighted as follows: Grade Quality-Points Per Semester Hour A.................................................................................... 4 B .................................................................................... 3 C .................................................................................... 2 D ................................................................................... 1 F, I, IP, W, P, S, U ....................................................... 0 The grade-point average for any semester is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of hours for which grades of “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “F” were received. The cumulative grade-point average on which graduation, academic probation, and academic discharge are based is determined by dividing the number of quality points earned at The Citadel by the number of quality hours attempted at The Citadel. For this purpose, the number of quality hours includes all credit hours attempted at The Citadel for which grades of “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “F” were received. The number of quality points earned includes all quality points associated with quality hours earned at The Citadel. The Citadel does not recognize plus or minus grades in undergraduate courses. Final Grade Appeal Policy The principle of academic freedom gives an instructor broad discretion in specifying the criteria by which student achievement is to be assessed and making decisions about the student’s accomplishments according to those criteria. Thus, except in unusual circumstances, an instructor’s decision about a grade may not be overruled. A student may, of course, request that his or her instructor review a grade for any required work in a course. Examples that can lead to a grade appeal include: a. The instructor has miscalculated a final grade. b. The instructor has violated the grading policies outlined in the syllabus. c. The instructor has violated a college or departmental policy or procedure. Other than the course instructor, only the Provost and Associate Provost may change a grade. The following process outlines the formal Grade Appeals Process: Note: Students must submit their grievance to the instructor within three (3) weeks from the date that the final grade first appears on the student’s academic record. 1. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the instructor and then discusses these concerns. The instructor will respond to the student within five (5) business days (Note: State of SC holidays are not accounted as business days). If the student’s concerns are not resolved or if the instructor fails to respond within the allotted time, the student can proceed to the next step. �The Citadel 2. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the department head. (In the event the instructor is the department head, then the dean will play this role, and if the instructor is a dean, then the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs and Dean of General Studies will play this role.) The student then meets with the department head to discuss these concerns. The department head will respond to the student within five (5) business days. If the student believes that their concerns have not been addressed or if the department head fails to respond within the allotted time, the student can proceed to the next step. 3. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the dean. (If the student is uncertain of who the dean is, he/she should contact the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs who will direct the student appropriately.) The student then meets with the dean to discuss these concerns.The Dean provides guidance on what can be considered under the appeal process. Examples that can lead to a grade appeal include: a. The instructor has miscalculated a final grade. b. The instructor has violated the grading policies outlined in the syllabus. c. The instructor has violated a college or departmental policy or procedure. If the student is not satisfied with the outcome of the discussion, the student can submit a grade appeal form to the dean or to the Associate Provost and provide required material within five (5) weeks from when grades were released. 4. The dean will form a grade appeal committee consisting of at least three (3) tenured or tenure-track faculty from the School, with at least one from the academic department in which the course was offered and at least one from outside that department.) The dean will provide direction to the committee, including emphasizing the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of the process. 5. The dean may request materials as needed from the instructor regarding the grade appeal, including but not limited to grades, syllabus, and assignments, for the grade appeal committee. 6. The dean may request additional information from the student as needed for the grade appeal committee, as well as ask the student to craft a detailed letter about why he/she is appealing the grade. Note: The grade appeal committee does not interact with the student or instructor. Any needed materials are to be gathered and disseminated by the dean. 7. The grade appeal committee submits its recommendation to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs no later than 15 business days after receipt of a grade appeal form. Potential recommendations that may be forwarded include, but are not limited to: a. Change of grade b. Late Withdrawal c. Change of grade to Pass/Fail option d. Appeal is denied 8. The Associate Provost for Academic Affairs will notify the student and instructor of the appeal decision within 10 business days of receipt of the Grade Appeals Committee’s decision. The names of the members of the grade appeal committee are not shared in the decision letter nor are they shared with the course instructor or the student. 9. If the decision results in a grade change, the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs submits a copy of the letter to the Registrar, requesting the grade change and a copy goes to the faculty member. �Academic Policies 27 Academic Awards The Dean’s List recognition is given to undergraduate students who have earned 12 or more semester hours excluding Pass-Fail hours whose semester grade-point average is 3.200 or higher, with no grade of “I” and no grade below “C.” A Dean's list medal is given to cadets to be worn on their cadet uniform during the following semester. A Dean’s List certificate is awarded to non-cadet students who meet the requirements for Dean’s List for the work in a semester. Dean's List is not issued for the summer semester. Gold Stars recognition is given to those students on the Dean's List who have made a grade-point average of 3,700 or higher for the work of a semester. Gold Stars will be worn on the cadet uniform in the semester after the cadet earned them. A Gold Star Recognition certificate is awarded to non-cadet students who meet the requirements for Gold Stars for the work of a semester. Gold Stars are not issued for the summer semester. Change of Grade Outside of the Final Grade Appeal process, a change in a final course grade will be considered only in cases of instructor error. The change of grade must be made within one month after the beginning of the next semester following the recordeing of the grade and must be approved by the head of the instructor's department or school and by the appropriate school dean. A grade change may not be based on work submitted after final grades have been submitted. Pass-Fail Juniors and seniors with cumulative grade-point averages of 2.00 or higher may take elective courses on a Pass-Fail option. Normally no more than one course may be taken under this option each semester, and no more than four courses taken under this option may be used to meet graduation requirements. Students may not change their decision to take a course on a Pass-Fail basis after the first two weeks of the term. Courses taken Pass-Fail carry graduation credit, but no quality points are awarded. Such courses are not included in GPA computations except in determining the First and Second Honor Graduates of the graduating cadet class. Instructors report grades as usual, “A” through “F.” The Registrar’s Office translates an “A,” “B,” or “C” as an “S” (meaning “satisfactory, credit awarded”). Grades of “D” or “F” are translated as “U” (meaning “unsatisfactory, no credit awarded”). Cadets who are taking a course under the Pass-Fail option and who wish to be considered for Dean’s List or Gold Star honors must satisfactorily complete the Pass-Fail course and must earn the appropriate GPA on 12 or more semester hours in addition to the Pass-Fail course. In determining the GPA for the position of First and Second Honor Graduates, courses taken under the Pass-Fail option will be included. Students desiring to take a course on the Pass-Fail option should contact the Registrar’s Office. �The Citadel Students with Documented Disabilities The Director of Services for Students with Disabilities is responsible for determining if a student has a documented disability as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act and for determining appropriate accommodations and services. Students with disabilities are encouraged to self-identify to the Director upon admission to The Citadel. If the Director determines that a disability warrants substitutions for courses required in the areas of foreign language and/or mathematics, all grades of “F” earned in previously completed courses in that discipline will be changed to “U” and will not be included in computing the student’s GPA. Grades of “A,” “B,” “C,” or “D” made by students in previously completed courses in that discipline will not be altered. Audit Status Any student who is eligible to enroll in a particular course may, with the approval of the instructor and the Registrar, audit that course for no credit. There will be no additional charge if the student is enrolled for credit in courses totaling 12 or more hours. For students taking fewer than 12 credit hours, registration fees and 100 percent of the tuition for the course will be assessed. The student may not change the decision to take the course on an audit basis rather than for credit after the first two weeks of the term. Grades will not be given for courses taken in audit status. Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA/Grade Replacement A student may not take or repeat a course which is taught at a lower level than, or serves as a prerequisite for, a course which the student has already completed. Courses may be repeated under the following conditions: 1. No course may be repeated once a grade of “B” or higher has been earned. 2. If a course is repeated, the last grade of record is used to determine whether course requirements for graduation have been met. 3. If a previously passed course is repeated, the hours may be used only once toward meeting requirements for total hours passed. 4. When courses are repeated under the conditions described above, the original course grade may be replaced by the newer grade when calculating students’ grade-point averages (GPAs), quality hours, and earned credit hours. Both the old and new grades will appear on students’ transcripts, but only the newer grade will be used in calculating GPAs. It is the student’s responsibility to complete Grade Replacement Request forms in the Office of the Registrar in order to have the new grade replace the older grade(s). 5. The maximum number of hours for which Grade Replacement will be allowed over the course of a student’s undergraduate career is 16. If a student repeats more than 16 hours of credit, both the old and the new grade will be used to calculate the student’s grade-point average (GPA), quality hours, and earned credit hours. Grades of “S” earned when a student elects to take a course on a Pass-Fail basis may not be used to replace older grades(s). 6. For the purpose of determining graduation honors (e.g., cum laude, etc.), both the old grade and the new grade will be used in making the GPA calculation to determine honors eligibility. 7. A student is not eligible for grade replacement after he/she has completed their degree program. 8. Once grade replacement has been requested and applied, it cannot be reversed. �Academic Policies 29 Transfer Credits The appropriate deans or department heads have responsibility for considering all transfer courses. Normally, only courses taken at an accredited institution which are comparable in content and credit hours to specific courses offered by The Citadel and in which grades of “C-” or better have been earned will be considered for transfer. However, the appropriate dean or department head may accept for transfer to meet General Elective credits, courses that are not offered by The Citadel but which are considered to be worthy of credit as electives and in which grades of “C-” or higher have been earned. In those cases where a course has been taken in a department or school not represented at The Citadel, the dean of the school or head of the department in which the student is majoring will determine if the course in question may be accepted for General Elective credit. To ensure that courses taken away from The Citadel will be accepted for transfer, students must obtain written prior approval through the Office of the Registrar. Grades earned in courses transferred from another college will not be computed in the student’s grade-point average at The Citadel. Courses previously passed at The Citadel will not be accepted for transfer. All transcripts sent from another college to The Citadel become the property of The Citadel and cannot be issued to the student or a third party. Cadets who have been given Academic or Conduct Discharges from The Citadel or who leave The Citadel while their conduct status is in question may not enroll in courses at The Citadel during that period of discharge nor may they transfer back to The Citadel courses taken during that period of discharge. Cadets who have resigned in lieu of a conduct discharge will be treated as if they have committed the offense with which they have been charged and have been given the most severe consequence available for that offense. Courses these cadets may take during the period of that consequence will not be considered for transfer back to The Citadel. Cadets who have been discharged for reasons other than academic or conduct may transfer back to The Citadel no more than one semester of academic work successfully completed during the period of discharge. During the fall and spring semesters, a cadet may not take a course offered at another institution, classroom or online. Academic juniors or seniors may, in certain circumstances and with the approval of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, take one Citadel Graduate College online, undergraduate course per semester when space is available. Summer School The Citadel has summer school sessions, with online classes and face-to-face classes offered both in the day and evening. Over a summer, a student will not normally be permitted to enroll at The Citadel in, or transfer in from another accredited institution, more than 16 credit hours. As with all transfer courses, prior approval is required for transfer of summer courses taken at another accredited institution. �The Citadel Class Attendance Policy The cornerstone of undergraduate education is communication between the teacher and the learner, and at The Citadel, class attendance is mandatory. Students may, however, need to miss class for authorized reasons—athletic events, academic travel, special ceremonies, guard duties, military obligations, etc. Illness and personal emergencies may also cause students to be absent for legitimate reasons. Instructors should work with students in these cases to assist them in making up tests, exams, quizzes, and other work missed. Should it be necessary to miss a class for any reason, the student will, unless circumstances preclude it, notify the professor in advance and will be responsible for any material missed. Tests and labs are critically important and are scheduled well in advance. It is, therefore, imperative that these are missed only due to circumstances beyond the control of the student and that the student notify the instructor when missing a test or lab cannot be avoided. Students are notified each time they are reported absent from a class and have 72 hours to make requests to their Academic Officer for adjustments. Faculty members may correct submitted class absence data for 6 working days after the day the class meets by sending this information to the Execuitive Director. However, the Student Affairs and Academic Services will accept no late class absence submissions from the faculty after the last day of classes each semester. Final Examinations Examinations are required at the end of each semester. Examinations will be given at the assigned time. If a faculty member has more than one section of the same course, students may, with the permission of the faculty member and providing that there is no conflict, take the final examination with another section. Since no scheduling conflicts are possible, make-up examinations should not be necessary. Any examination which is missed due to an emergency should be rescheduled after the regularly scheduled examination period but not during a Reading Period, during ESP, or on a Sunday. If rescheduling is not possible prior to the deadline for submission of final grades, the instructor should award the student an “I.” Conflicts resulting from a student’s travel arrangements do not constitute an emergency and do not justify a make-up examination. Any exception to these policies must be requested in writing by the student and concurred with by the instructor and the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. The final examination schedule is published each semester on the Citadel web page. Degrees The degree of Bachelor of Arts is conferred upon satisfactory completion of the appropriate program of study in chemistry, criminal justice, English, history, intelligence and security studies, modern languages, political science, or psychology. The Bachelor of Science degree is conferred upon satisfactory completion of the appropriate program of study in biology; chemistry; computer science; education; health, exercise, and sport science; mathematics, physics and sport management. Graduates in nursing receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing.. Graduates in accounting, finance, management, marketing and business development, or supply chain management receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. �Academic Policies 31 Graduates in civil engineering receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. Graduates in construction engineering receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Construction Engineering. Graduates in electrical engineering receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. Graduates in mechanical engineering receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. Requirements for Degree Completion Academics: A student must complete one of the major courses of study outlined in the catalog of record and must achieve a minimum grade-point average of 2.000 based on all quality hours attempted and all quality points earned at The Citadel. In addition, each student must achieve a minimum grade-point average of 2.000 based on all quality hours attempted and all quality points earned in major coursework at The Citadel. Students majoring in education or in the teaching track of health, exercise and sport science must achieve a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.50 and a grade-point average of at least 2.50 on all professional education courses; and must have on file in the Registrar’s Office at The Citadel passing scores for the appropriate PRAXIS II and Principles of Learning and Teaching (PLT) Examinations. If a student is pursuing a minor, a grade-point average of 2.000 must be achieved in all coursework completed in that minor. All students, including transfer students from other colleges, are required to earn at The Citadel a minimum of one-half the semester hours prescribed for their major course of study. The student’s school or department is responsible for ensuring that the student’s knowledge in the major is current. Cadets who have met the overall grade-point average and major coursework grade-point average requirements and who are conduct proficient but who have not completed all course requirements for graduation may take not more than two courses totaling 7 semester hours at another institution for transfer to The Citadel in order to complete major requirements. Prior approval of these courses is mandatory. ROTC: ROTC course work plays a major role in The Citadel’s mission to educate and prepare graduates to become principled leaders and is essential for students seeking to receive a commission in one of the armed forces. All cadets must satisfy an ROTC requirement (either ROTC course or fulfillment course) for every semester during which they are enrolled at The Citadel or until they have completed eight semesters or met graduation requirements. The ROTC requirement for cadets is explained below: • Every freshman and sophomore cadet (i.e., all those who are classified 4A, 4B, 3A, or 3B) must enroll in and pass an ROTC class during their freshman and sophomore years. The ROTC classes are offered by the Departments of Aerospace Studies (AERO), Military Studies (MLTY), and Naval Studies (NAVL). �The Citadel • • • • Cadets who are pursuing a commission in one ROTC program and who then decide to pursue a commission in another ROTC program must have the approval of the head of the ROTC program they are leaving and the head of the ROTC program they wish to join. When cadets are changing to another ROTC, they are not, without the permission of the head of the ROTC Detachment, permitted to enroll in an ROTC class at a level lower than their academic classification. For example, a member of the sophomore class who wishes to change to another ROTC must enroll in a sophomore-level course in the new ROTC unless the head of the ROTC Detachment authorizes the enrollment in a lower-level course. Cadets who wish to move from one ROTC program to another but do not wish to pursue a commission must have the approval of the head of the ROTC department they wish to join, academic advisor, and the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. If a cadet finds that he or she is not able to register for an ROTC class or that he or she must withdraw from an ROTC class, the cadet must have the permission of the head of that ROTC Detachment (for students pursuing a commission) or the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs (for those not pursuing a commission). Failure to complete an ROTC class does not reduce the number of semesters in the ROTC requirement. Study abroad cadets will complete ROTC requirements via independent study or online. • Junior and Senior cadets (i.e., those who are classified 2A, 2B, 1A, or 1B) who wish to pursue a commission in the Armed Forces upon graduation are required to enroll in and pass an ROTC class in every semester during which they are enrolled at The Citadel or until they have completed eight semesters or met graduation requirements. • Upon the recommendation of the head of the appropriate ROTC department and with concurrence of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, training experiences may be accepted in lieu of ROTC coursework. When approved, the designated ROTC courses will be recorded on the student’s Citadel transcript as exempted military credits. • Junior and Senior cadets (i.e., those who are classified 2A, 2B, 1A, or 1B) who are not pursuing military careers will not take the traditional junior and seniorlevel ROTC courses designed for cadets who will be commissioned at graduation. These cadets will, instead, fulfill the ROTC requirement by enrolling in a 3-hour ROTC-fulfilment courses until they have completed eight semesters or met graduation requirements. This ROTC-alternative program for juniors and seniors provides a more relevant set of leadership-oriented courses/experiences for cadets who are not going into the U.S. military and allows the ROTC detachments to focus their resources on cadets who are pursuing a commission. �Academic Policies • 33 Non-commissioning students will be responsible for taking one ROTCfulfilment course each semester. All students are required to take LDRS 371. The remaining courses may be chosen from a wide variety of classes in the Leadership Studies minor, leadership-oriented courses in students’ major fields, and other high-impact practice courses such as internships or undergraduate research courses. Please visit the Leadership Studies Department webpage for a list of ROTC Fulfilment courses. ROTC classes (i.e., those designated AERO, MLTY, or NAVL) may not be used to satisfy elective requirements in any course of study. Physical Education: The required physical education program for cadets is designed to provide an exemplary environment and experiences which contribute to an improved quality of life for the student. The program offers basic instruction in adult and lifetime physical fitness, healthful living, physical activities and recreational sports which are of immediate and lasting value. Each student is required to complete RPED 260: Physical Fitness, Resiliency, and Wellness (3 cr. hours), as well as two different RPED activity courses (0 cr. hours each). Residential: Students pursuing a cadet degree must reside in the Corps of Cadets for at least six full semesters or five semesters with one semester of approved study abroad. For this policy, summer does not count as a semester. Requirements for Participation in Commencement Exercises Students who have not completed all degree requirements may participate in the May Commencement if the following conditions are met: 1. The student has earned at least a 2.000 cumulative GPA and 2.000 GPA in the major. For Education majors and Physical Education (Teaching Track) majors, the cumulative and professional education grade-point averages must be at least 2.50. 2. The student must be no more than 15 credit hours short of meeting degree requirements. 3. The student must be cleared by the Office of the Treasurer. 4. The cadet must have completed all tours and confinements and must have passed the Corps Physical Fitness Test as outlined in Chapter 5 of the White Book. 5. The cadet must have met all ROTC and RPED requirements. 6. The cadet must be eligible to complete degree requirements without returning to the Corps of Cadets since participation in commencement is the final act of a cadet. �The Citadel Commencement Honors Commencement Awards are restricted to those graduates who have earned and are using to satisfy graduation requirements a minimum of 90 semester hours. Annually, the Board of Visitors recognizes the two top graduates of the Corps of Cadets by presenting at Commencement the David Shingler Spell Honor Graduate Awards, honoring David Shingler Spell, Class of 1950. The First Honor Graduate receives the traditional Scholarship Medal and both the First and Second Honor Graduates receive an appropriately inscribed plaque and a stipend to be used for educational expenses at the graduate level or at the discretion of the recipient. These honors are awarded to the cadet graduates whose grade-point averages at The Citadel are highest and second highest among the graduating cadet class. In case of a tie, grades in courses taken under the Pass-Fail option are included in computing the grade-point average. In those cases where the grade-point averages are still identical, the total number of quality points earned is used to break the tie. To be eligible to graduate with honors and to be eligible for departmental honors, a student must have earned at The Citadel at least half of the semester hours required in the major course of study. A degree summa cum laude is awarded to those students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.900-4.000. A degree magna cum laude is awarded to those students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.700-3.899. A degree cum laude is awarded to those students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.500-3.699. School/Departmental Honors are awarded on the recommendation of deans/ department heads to those students of the graduating class who have earned a gradepoint average of 3.500 or better in at least 36 hours of work in the major completed at The Citadel. Non-cadet Enrollment in ROTC Non-cadets are not permitted to enroll in ROTC classes unless they meet all the following conditions: 1. The individual must either be on active duty and on orders as a participant in a commissioning program for one of the armed services or be an enrolled veteran student. 2. The individual must be accepted as a degree-seeking student in the day program of The Citadel. 3. The individual must be enrolled as a full-time student in courses in the day program of The Citadel. 4. The individual must be provided leadership experiences outside the context of the Corps of Cadets. 5. ROTC classes will fulfill no degree requirements in a degree program of a non-cadet. 6. The individual must be in uniform while on campus. �Academic Policies 35 Course Load Requirements A full-time student must be enrolled throughout each semester in course work totaling at least 12 credit hours. A cadet must be a full-time student. Any cadet who drops below the 12-credit-hour minimum at any time during a semester is subject to discharge, unless there are extremely extenuating circumstances. Such circumstances must be presented in writing to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Students and their parents should be aware that carrying fewer than 12 credit hours may affect insurance coverage with some insurance companies and may also affect eligibility for financial aid. Course Overload A traditional full-time course load may vary between 12-18 hours per semester depending on major and course of study. The recommended maximum course load (credit hours) which will be approved for either fall or spring semester is normally 21 per semester. Overload requests may be submitted in writing to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. A comprehensive review of academic performance to include: cumulative GPA, GPA during the semester immediately preceding, and other aspects will be conducted when authorizing a course overload. For exceptional cadets, course loads of up to 24 hours per semester may be allowed in certain circumstances. Courses exceeding the recommended maximum load of 21 hours will be billed using the current in-state or out-of-state rate per credit hour based on student type. Course Substitutions Course substitutions are made only when justified by extenuating circumstances. Such circumstances must be presented in writing by the student, and the requested substitution must have the support of the faculty advisor, the associate dean or department head, and the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Forms for requesting course substitutions are available in the Registrar’s Office. Combining Courses Courses may be combined to meet a maximum of one general elective requirement under the following circumstances: 1. The courses to be combined must be offered by the same department and must be related in some way. 2. The associate dean or department head of the student’s major school or department must provide a recommendation and rationale for combining the courses. 3. The Associate Provost for Academic Affairs must grant final approval for the combining of courses. Change of Academic Major Students who wish to change their major should consult with their academic advisors as well as with the associate dean or department head offering the new major. Forms for requesting a change of academic major are available in the Registrar’s Office. �The Citadel Pursuing a Double Major Under certian circumstances, a student may wish to pursue two different majors concurrently within the same baccalaureate degree (that is, for instance, two majors resulting in a B.A. degree, like English and History, or two majors resulting in a B.S. degree, like Computer Science and Mathematics). This will be permitted under the following conditions: 1. Students must declare their intentions to the registar no later than the fall semester of the junior year. 2. Both majors must be offered under the same baccalaureate degree. 3. Students must complete all requirements for each major. 4. Students, in addition to meeting a minimum overall grade-point average, must achieve the minimum grade-point average requirements for each major. 5. Requirements for both majors must be completed concurrently within the same grading period. Finishing one or the other major first essentially completes the degree, so the student graduates without completing the second major. A student who has met these requirements will have both majors indicated on the transcript. Pursuing a Second Baccalaureate Degree Under certain circumstances, a student may wish to pursue two different baccalaureate degrees concurrently (as, for example, a B.S. in Biology and a B.A. in Political Science.). This will be allowed under the following conditions: 1. The student must complete all requirements of each degree. 2. The student is normally expected to complete requirements for the second degree while pursuing the initial undergraduate degree. 3. Any remaining requirements after the initial degree has been completed may be addressed in the Citadel’s summer school, in The Citadel Graduate College, or in Day Student Status. Internship Guidelines for Academic Credit Academic Internships are extensions of classroom learning, with applied experiences, in a professional field (not to be confused with a "job" or "seasonal employment"). Internships should be clearly related to career interests, major, or minor. A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.50 is required to participate in an academic internship for credit during the academic semester. Exceptions and overrides must be approved by Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Academic Policies Internships must meet criteria set by academic departments. Department standards can vary, but internships require a minimum number of hours worked per semester, typically between 90-120 hours over 16 weeks or 10-week summer session. Most departments require weekly journals, regular meetings with supervisors, and final presentations (written or oral) based on a topic related to the internship experience, and a final evaluation of performance from the site supervisor. �Academic Policies 37 Students may earn a maximum of a 6 hours of credit from internship courses to apply to a degree program at The Citadel and may participate in only one internship during a semester. This section describes the following procedures relating to internships: 1. 2. 3. 4. General Guidelines Policies and Procedures for Academic Internships for Credit Administrative Guidelines Special Circumstances. 1. a. General Guidelines to Secure Internship Student has secured internship independently, through The Career Center, from a referral from department advisor, or outside source that meets department internship guidelines. Once secured, an internship must be evaluated and approved by a departmental academic advisor to ensure it meets standards to earn academic credit. Student registers for internship course and completes Internship Agreement Form. The Internship Agreement Form should include work schedule, which must be submitted and approved through Cadet Accountability System (CAS) by the academic department. Orders are reviewed and approved/ disapproved by the Provost and Commandant’s Department. Special circumstances are referred to the Career Center. b. c. d. e. 2. a. Policies and Procedures for Academic Internships for Credit Academic internships are for credit. These typically apply for academic juniors and seniors – see department advisor for exceptions. b. Minimum 2.5 GPA, approval from academic department, and student is at a place in academic studies where department encourages internships. c. Student registers for internship course and completes Internship Agreement Form, which includes: • Student contact information • Faculty advisor contact information • Internship site information • Internship description / learning objectives • Work schedule • Leave request (approved in CAS) • Internship guidelines • Waiver of Liability & Indemnity • Final signatures d. Student is under regular and direct supervision and must adhere to The Citadel’s Honor Code. e. Student must complete all academic requirements during the semester. f. Hours may include virtual or offsite work, as long as they do not interfere with academic or leadership duties. �The Citadel g. Cadet internships cannot interfere with academic classes, Leadership Training, or Friday Parade. Cadets may request special leave on occasion (White Book Chapter 6) to perform professional duties which are outside of special order through TACs, who have discretion for approval/ disapproval. TAC and cadets should request Career Center assistance if there is confusion. 3. a. Administrative Guidelines Students are eligible to receive payment or a stipend for work performed if this is a standard practice in the professional setting. Students may not receive internship credit for previous work experience after the fact (example: a student may not participate in a summer internship and receive academic credit in the fall). After registration deadline has passed, student may register with permission from the academic department or Provost’s Office if he/she is able to meet requirements to earn academic credit. Internship may not conflict with academic coursework or Commandant’s schedule for cadets (see special circumstances). Students may complete up to two internships for academic credit at the discretion of the department. Students may register for a special topics course, in place of an internship, if a faculty advisor agrees to oversee the experience AND the special topic fulfills internship guidelines. Duplicate internships at the same site need to show evidence of increased responsibility or professional progression. b. c. d. e. f. g. 4. Special Circumstances Special circumstances are handled on a case-by-case basis and are reviewed by The Citadel Career Center with referral to the appropriate campus entity. These include: • Emergent leave situations associated with a full-time offer or internship interview (which may include interviews/training prior to internship start date, but before special orders are approved by the academic department.) These may also be submitted approved by a TAC officer in Cadet Accountability System (CAS). • Leave for drug tests or background checks. • Training associated with an internship or professional full-time offer (prior to graduation, but after internship has concluded). • Participation in professional development related to an internship (documentation needed from supervisor, in writing, with company’s domain name and supervisor’s contact). • Graduate school interviews for current seniors pursuing advanced degrees. • Internship opportunities not clearly defined or does not meet traditional academic guidelines. • Academic department is not offering academic credit (student may work to find a legitimate course substitute). • Student has completed internships for academic credit, but organization requires internship extension for training and continuity for a full-time offer. �Academic Policies • 39 Student is not eligible to earn academic credit but needs an internship for some specific purpose related to a job offer (needs documentation). These include shadowing hours needed to maintain security clearance where hours worked do not meet minimum internship standards or internship is with a federal agency that requires anonymity (ex. FBI). Internship Special Order vs. Special Leave for Cadets Special Orders • • • • • Cadet reviews and ensures he/she meets eligibility guidelines and registers for internship course Cadet completes Internship Agreement Form which is reviewed for accuracy by (A) academic internship supervisor (B) Citadel Career Center Special orders are submitted by department internship academic advisor through CAS Orders are reviewed/approved or disapproved by both Provost’s Office and Commandant’s Department Cadet receives confirmation of special order approval through CAS/ email Special Leave • • • • Cadet is currently participating in approved internship Cadet seeks additional time to participate in professional internship related duty outside of special orders (Ex. Supervisor requests a student be present for a Friday meeting that is in direct conflict with parade) Student communicates to TAC regarding request, then submits leave request through CAS TAC may approve/disapprove without involvement from academic department or Career Center, but may request assistance from careercenter@citadel.edu as needed NOTE: SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES REFERRED TO THE CITADEL CAREER CENTER: Internships with reoccurring conflicts which may prohibit cadets from participating should be referred to careercenter@citadel.edu. Cadet will be asked to provide supervisor’s contact information and written documentation for review and referral to appropriate campus resource. Taking Graduate Courses Without being admitted to an accelerated Master's program, academic seniors with a cumulative Grade Point Average of at least a 3.20 may take up to twelve hours of CGC graduate credit, with no more than six hours of graduate credit in any one full semester (Fall, Spring, Summer), when space is available. These courses may provide students a head start on earning a graduate certificate or a graduate degree, but graduate courses may NOT be used to meet undergraduate degree requirements and will NOT be used to compute undergraduate GPA. Students must have the permission of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Undergraduate juniors and seniors accepted in an accelerated program at The Citadel may take and share up to twelve hours of structured graduate credit between the graduate and undergraduate majors. Refer to specific accelerated program requirements for total hours permitted to share. �The Citadel Academic Classifications Undergraduate students’ academic classification is based strictly on earned credit hours. The table below reflects the required number of earned credit hours for each designated academic classification. Credits Earned 0-14 15-29 30-44 45-59 60-74 75-89 90-104 105 and above Academic Classification First Semester Freshman (4A) Second Semester Freshman (4B) First Semester Sophomore (3A) Second Semester Sophomore (3B) First Semester Junior (2A) Second Semester Junior (2B) First Semester Senior (1A) Second Semester Senior (1B) Academic classification is used by the Office of Financial Aid to determine loan eligibility. Ordering and Receiving a Class Ring While any rising senior cadet may in the spring of the junior year be measured for and order a class ring, to be eligible to receive a class ring, a cadet must meet these two conditions: (1) have an academic classification of 1A and (2) have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.000. To participate in the Ring Ceremony, the cadet must (3) have passed the Corps Physical Fitness Test as outlined in Chapter 5 of the White Book. Cadets who have met academic requirements to receive the ring but have not met the Commandant’s Physical Effectiveness Requirements to participate in the Ring Presentation may pick up their rings on the Monday following Parents’ Weekend at the Holliday Alumni Center. If a cadet fails to meet requirements to receive the ring with his/her class, the Alumni Association will normally hold the ring until the end of the following spring semester. If the cadet has not met requirements to receive the ring by that time, it will be returned to the manufacturer. The cadet may not order the ring, again, until all requirements to receive the ring have been met. The eligibility of cadets who failed to meet ring eligibility in October of their senior year will be checked again in January. Cadets who have not yet received their rings but will receive their diplomas in May or will be eligible to participate in the commencement ceremony will be cleared to receive their rings before commencement. No other cadets will be cleared to receive their rings until after commencement. These are minimum requirements and will not be waived. Students should see the Registrar to confirm eligibility. �Academic Policies 41 Academic Criteria for Continuance In order to be eligible to continue at The Citadel, a student must meet minimum standards for hours earned at The Citadel or properly transferred from another accredited institution and cumulative grade-point average maintained. These criteria are assessed initially after the cadet’s second semester at The Citadel and then at the end of each two-semester period. Credits earned through AP or course work taken by an entering freshman in the summer prior to initial matriculation WILL NOT be used toward meeting the minimum standard for hours earned in an academic year. Although The Citadel will notify students who are deficient in either or both areas, it is the responsibility of the student to ensure that these criteria are met. To avoid academic discharge, a student must meet both hour and GPA requirements concurrently either at the end of the fall semester, at the end of the spring semester, or in August, as appropriate. A full-time student (one carrying at least 12 credit hours each semester) must pass at least 24 semester hours in each 12-month period after initial matriculation or readmission. If a previously passed course is repeated, the hours may be used only once toward meeting requirements for hours passed. Part-time students must pass 50% of the hours attempted. Each student must maintain a minimum cumulative grade-point average as prescribed in the following table. This grade-point average is calculated as described earlier in this section. The column labeled “Total Hours” includes 1) all credits attempted for which a grade of “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “F” was received at The Citadel, 2) course work transferred from other colleges, and 3) courses taken Pass-Fail or in which the grade of “U” was earned. Total Hours (Quality Hours Plus Transfer & Pass/Fail Hours) Grade-Point Average for Continuance on Probation 0-39 1.300 40-69 1.500 70-99 1.700 100 & above 1.900 This table shows the minimum academic progress a student must make to continue at the College and to avoid academic discharge. For the purpose of determining academic probation, criteria for continuance, dean’s list, gold stars, graduation, and other academic matters, the grade-point average will be computed to three decimal places. Academic Probation A student is placed on academic probation for any semester when the cumulative grade-point average based on courses taken at The Citadel fails to meet the requirements for continuance without probation as outlined in the following table. A student will be removed from academic probation after the semester in which the cumulative grade-point average meets the requirements set forth in the following table. �The Citadel Total Hours (Quality Hours Plus Transfer & Pass/Fail Hours) 0-39 40-69 70-99 100 & above Grade-Point Average for Continuance without Probation 1.700 1.800 1.900 2.000 Academic Discharge A cadet’s academic record will be subject to formal review for purposes of academic discharge at the end of the second semester after initial matriculation at The Citadel. During these two semesters and the summer sessions after initial matriculation, the cadet must have earned at least 24 credit hours and must at the time of review meet GPA requirements for continuance. If these requirements are not met concurrently at that time, the cadet will be discharged for academic deficiencies. Academic assessment for the purpose of academic discharge is conducted at the end of each two-semester period, and the associated summer sessions, after the student is admitted or readmitted. Under the Academic Discharge Policy, cadets may be discharged for academic deficiencies in January or in August of each year. Credits completed while a student is on academic discharge will not normally be accepted for transfer to The Citadel. Exceptions to this policy must have the approval of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Summer session work cannot make students ineligible to enroll in the following fall semester, if they were eligible for enrollment at the end of the previous spring semester. Minimum grade-point averages for the various categories are as shown in the previous sections; however, the minimum GPA required will not be raised as a result of summer school work. That is, students moving from one category to the next higher category as a result of credit hours earned in summer school at The Citadel or elsewhere will be required to meet the GPA minimum of the lower category of credit hours for continuance in the following fall term. Students who voluntarily withdraw at times other than January or August or who are discharged for other than academic reasons will have their academic status assessed upon application for readmission. Readmission A student who is discharged for academic reasons for the first time may apply for readmission after being out of school for one semester. Summer school does not constitute a semester in this instance. Students who are discharged for academic or disciplinary reasons may not, during the period of discharge, take courses for transfer to The Citadel. The deadline for the receipt of an application for readmission for Maymester and summer School is March 1st, for the spring term is October 1st, and for the fall term is June 1st. When a student applies for readmission to The Citadel, his/her catalog year of record will be reviewed by the Registrar’s Office and the Associate Provost. The student will then be assigned a catalog year which most appropriately fits their coursework. �Academic Policies 43 In addition to any specific readmission requirements stated at the time of discharge, applicants for readmission to the South Carolina Corps of Cadets must meet the personal and physical fitness requirements for current cadets (see updated Application for Readmission on the Registrar’s website). These include the following: a. Applicants for readmission must meet the U.S. Army standard for height and weight (Army Reg 600-9) and must be physically qualified as determined by the Citadel Surgeon. Applicants who fail to meet the height/weight standards can gain readmission by meeting the Citadel body-fat standard. Height/weight and body-fat standards for current cadets are detailed in the White Book, Chapter 5. These standards are more stringent than those for initial applicants. b. Applicants for readmission may not be married nor have childcare responsibility for any minor child related to him or her by blood or marriage. c. Applicants must not have a record of conviction of a criminal offense showing poor moral character. d. Applicants for readmission must be less than 26 years old on the first day of classes in the semester of their readmission. Applicants for readmission who have not completed their fourth-class system requirements must be less than 23 years old on the first day of classes in the semester of their readmission. If approved for readmission after an academic discharge, the student will be readmitted on academic probation. Cadets who have been approved for readmission may or may not be assigned to their former cadet company. Second Academic Discharge A student who fails for a second time to meet minimum academic criteria for continuance will be awarded a Second Academic Discharge. The Associate Provost for Academic Affairs will review the academic record and any extenuating circumstances the student wishes to present in writing. Based on this review and in consultation with the faculty advisor and the department head or Associate Dean, the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs will determine the conditions under which the student may be considered for readmission after a second academic discharge. Academic Forgiveness Policy Any undergraduate student who has been separated from The Citadel for 48 or more consecutive months is eligible to apply for Academic Forgiveness. Upon readmission, a student seeking to apply for Academic Forgiveness must first complete 24 hours at The Citadel with a grade-point average (GPA) of 2.0 or higher on those 24 hours in order to apply for Academic Forgiveness. To apply for Academic Forgiveness, a readmitted student who has met the minimum GPA requirement on 24 hours must make a formal written request for an academic “fresh start” and must meet in person with the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs to discuss that application. �The Citadel If a student is granted Academic Forgiveness, then all previous coursework completed at The Citadel will be treated as transfer credit (i.e., as pass/fail coursework) for the purpose of computing the student’s cumulative Citadel GPA and the student’s Major GPA; in addition, courses which the student previously passed at The Citadel with a grade of “D” will continue to be counted in the student’s total earned hours and will not have to be repeated. All previous grades will remain on the student’s permanent record, but they will not be computed in the student’s GPA. The transcript will contain this notation: “Academic Forgiveness was granted as of (date of readmission); grades earned at The Citadel prior to this date are not included in this student’s GPA calculation.” Students who have been granted Academic Forgiveness will not be eligible to receive graduation honors (e.g., cum laude, etc.). Conduct Discharge Cadets who have been suspended or dismissed or who leave the College with a disciplinary board pending are not eligible to attend any undergraduate class at The Citadel—day, evening, or summer—or to transfer credits back to The Citadel for any courses taken during the period of discharge. Cadets Called to Active Duty When Cadets are called to Active Duty, it is the policy of The Citadel to minimize the academic and financial impacts of being required to interrupt their studies. When the cadet learns that call to active duty is likely, he/she notifies the Office of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs and his/her Tactical Officer. Financial If the cadet and his/her instructors feel that completing courses in which he/she is currently enrolled is not a reasonable expectation, the cadet is awarded the grade of “W” in each course and is provided a full refund less room and board used and OneCard charges. When the cadet elects not to withdraw from all courses, refunds of tuition and fees are prorated based on a per-credit-hour rate and the number of credits the cadet and his/her faculty members believe he/she will be able to complete. Academic When the date of required departure from The Citadel becomes fixed, the cadet works with his/her instructors to determine if it is reasonable to complete courses after departing on active duty or delaying completion until the cadet returns to The Citadel. In this effort, the instructor is not expected to modify the expectations or assignments of the course, but to help the student determine if it is feasible to continue to work on, and ultimately complete, course requirements after leaving The Citadel. In some cases, the date of departure is sufficiently late in the semester that final course assignments and the final exam can be completed before the cadet leaves campus. This, however, will likely be the exception rather than the rule, and faculty members are not expected to “force” early course completion. �Academic Policies 45 When the faculty member and the student feel that it is not reasonable to complete requirements in a particular course, the student is withdrawn from that course with the grade of “W.” When the faculty member and student feel that requirements in a particular course can be completed by the student through independent study, the grade of “I” is given until course requirements are met. If at any time the faculty member and/or the student feel that completing the course is no longer a reasonable expectation, the student is given the grade of “W” in that course. Civilian Students in Cadet Classes With the exceptions of Day Students, Returning Veteran Cadets, no civilian students are permitted to take classes with the Corps of Cadets. These three student categories are defined below. Fifth Year Student Status Cadets will normally remain in the Corps of Cadets until degree requirements have been met. Cadets who have completed eight semesters in the Corps of Cadets, all ROTC requirements, all LDRS course requirements, and all RPED course requirements and who have been cleared by the Commandant and the Treasurer may apply for Fifth Year Student status through the Office of the Registrar. Cadets who request Fifth Year Student status with the desire to participate in the Long Gray Line Parade and Corps of Cadets graduation ceremony must be certified as proficient in all pillars prior to becoming a Fifth Year Student. This is evaluated at the time of the cadet’s application by the Office of the Commandant. If Fifth Year Student status is approved, the student must live off campus and may attend day classes with the Corps of Cadets or evening undergraduate classes. While on campus in Fifth Year Student status, students will wear civilian clothes, but their attire is expected to be compatible with the military environment established by the uniformed Corps of Cadets. To satisfy the Commandant’s requirements for participating in the commencement ceremony, cadets in Day Student status must meet with the Commandant’s Sergeant Major no later than the Wednesday of commencement week and review all expectations. These include an inspection of all uniforms related to graduation and Height/Weight screening if necessary. For Fifth Year Students, the following specific dress code is in force: 1. Regulations pertaining to body piercing and tattoos are the same as those for the members of the Corps of Cadets. 2. A broken uniform is unattractive anywhere, but it is especially unsuited for a military college campus or classroom. Portions of cadet uniforms are not, therefore, to be worn by non-cadets. 3. Hair will be neatly trimmed and styled; as will mustaches and sideburns if they are worn. Men will be permitted to wear beards only when required to do so for medical reasons, which must be explained in writing by a physician and submitted to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. 4. Students will wear business attire when attending formal occasions when the members of the Corps of Cadets are required to appear in full dress or white uniform. �The Citadel 5.

Repeated offences may result in discharge from the College. 1. 2. 3. Veteran Students Policy All veteran students must declare either the day/cadet or Evening Undergraduate College Transfer Program when they begin taking classes at The Citadel. Veterans who declare themselves day students must follow the South Carolina Corps of Cadets general education requirements and attend the day program commencement ceremony. Veterans who declare their status as evening students must meet Evening Undergraduate Studies general education requirements and attend the Citadel Graduate College commencement exercises. Veterans may change their official student status once in their time as a student at The Citadel. Exceptions to this rule must be approved by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Veteran students may enroll in day or evening classes. Veteran Cadet Program Effective with the fall 2008 semester, cadets who have begun their pursuit of the cadet degree and have elected to pursue or have been called to active military service will be provided the following options if their tour on active duty was not for training purposes and they have been discharged honorably with full rights and privileges of a veteran. Option 1. If they are eligible, they may return to the Corps of Cadets to continue to pursue the cadet degree. Option 2. They may enroll as civilian students in classes with the Corps of Cadets to pursue a non-cadet degree with non-cadet diploma and ring (the same diploma and ring available for current Active Duty Students and students in The Citadel Graduate College.) Eligibility Criteria • must have been sworn into the Corps of Cadets at The Citadel • must have been honorably discharged from active duty with the full rights and privileges of a veteran • must meet academic and disciplinary criteria for readmission to The Citadel Students electing this option • may enroll in civilian status in classes with the Corps of Cadets • may enroll in evening classes in The Citadel Graduate College • are eligible to earn the non-cadet degree/diploma and receive the noncadet ring currently awarded to Active Duty students and students in The Citadel Graduate College • may not return to the Corps of Cadets but will be allowed to participate in Cadet Commencement in cap and gown. At its 14 June 2008 meeting, the Board of Visitors approved the pursuit of the Cadet Degree, Diploma, and Ring through the Veteran Cadet Program under the following conditions: �Academic Policies 47 1. The former cadet has received while on active duty and in combat an injury that precludes readmission to the Corps of Cadets; or 2. The former cadet has served at least four semesters in the Corps of Cadets prior to moving to Veteran Cadet status. Former cadets who are approved to pursue the Cadet Degree in Veteran Cadet status will be awarded credit for appropriate ROTC courses 301, 302, 401, and 402 based on their active duty service, and requirements to complete two RPED activity courses, and LDRS courses will be waived. Through these options, The Citadel is attempting to address the needs of those students who have formally joined the Corps of Cadets but prior to completing the cadet degree have been called to active duty or have elected to serve on active duty that ends with an honorable discharge as a veteran. Non-Cadet Veteran Day Program An eligible non-cadet veteran is defined to be an individual who provides evidence through a Department of Defense Form DD 214 of honorable discharge from one of the Armed Services indicating a minimum of 90 consecutive days of full-time federal active service, other than active duty for training. If a veteran has been discharged more than once, all discharges must be honorable. Academic Requirements: Veteran applicants are civilians and will not be subject to academic requirements specific to the Corps of Cadets. The curricular requirements pertaining only to members of the Corps are described on pages 105-107 of this catalog. Student Academic Grievances The academic grievance process of the college is reserved for the most serious alleged offenses. These matters deal not with differences of opinion, but with violations of due process; denial of individual rights; or unequal treatment or discrimination based on sex, race, color, or national origin. Students who feel that they have an academic grievance are directed first to confer with the instructor or other individual(s) involved. Where this does not result in satisfaction or if this step is not feasible, the student should present the grievance in writing to the lowest appropriate level not involved in the grievance, department head or associate dean. If the matter remains unresolved, the student may present the grievance and the attempted solution in writing to the appropriate dean. If deemed appropriate, the dean may appoint a review committee consisting of three faculty members, with one designated as chair and a student in good standing from the same student category as the grieving student. This committee shall have the authority to interview individuals who may have information pertaining to the grievance and to request records and materials pertaining to the grievance. In a grievance procedure, all employees and students are obligated to provide requested information to the dean/associate dean/department head, or review committee. The committee shall forward its findings and recommendations to the convening dean who shall decide the case. The student may appeal that decision to the Provost who has the authority to settle all student grievances. �The Citadel English Fluency Policy In accordance with the laws of South Carolina, The Citadel ensures the English fluency of its teaching faculty through a two-stage review process. 1. During the interview process, each applicant will make an oral presentation before a group consisting of faculty members and students. Using the included form, each participant will evaluate the candidate’s English fluency and clarity of presentation. These evaluations will be a major factor in the selection process, and should a candidate who is ultimately selected be deemed by this evaluation to have a language problem, the extent of this problem, the support to be provided the candidate by the College in addressing this problem, and the expectations for improvement in English fluency will all be clearly stated in the offer of employment. 2. Should the English fluency of a member of the faculty be challenged by a student, standard procedures for student academic grievances as described above will be followed. If a review committee is called for, the native language of one of the faculty members will not be English. Ownership of Intellectual Property Preamble The Citadel has among its primary purposes teaching, research, and the expansion and dissemination of knowledge. Products of these endeavors include the development and use of intellectual property. It is the policy of the College that its faculty, staff, and students carry out their scholarly work in an open and free atmosphere that encourages publication and creation of such works without constraint but consistent with applicable laws and College policy. This policy will be in accord with the guidelines and criteria published in The American Association of University Professors’ “Statement of Copyright” (Policy Documents and Reports. Ninth Edition, 2001, or subsequent editions). Definitions Directed Works are defined as those specifically funded or created at the direction of the College, and which may or may not include exceptional use of College resources. They are distinguished from non-directed works, which are pedagogical, scholarly, literary, or aesthetic works resulting from non-directed effort. Exceptional Use of College Resources is defined as the provision of resources or support by the College for the creation of a work that is of a degree or nature not routinely made available to College employees. Sabbatical leaves, faculty research grants, and faculty development grants awarded by the College upon the recommendation of the Research, Faculty Development, or Sabbaticals Committees, although competitive, are routinely available to the faculty and are therefore deemed non-exceptional unless specifically designated otherwise by agreement between the originator and the Provost. Policy Ownership of intellectual property will reside with the originator, whether a member of the faculty, a member of the staff, or a student, unless: (a) the property is created at the specific direction of the College; or (b) the originator has made exceptional use of College resources in creating it. �Academic Policies 49 At the time when the work is directed by the College or at the time when the College makes exceptional resources available to the originator of intellectual property, the Provost and the originator will together determine ownership and will negotiate a written agreement concerning that property. These determinations will be made on a case-by-case basis. Confidentiality of Student Records The Citadel complies with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), which affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. These rights include: (1) The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day The Citadel receives a request for access. A student should submit to the registrar, dean, head of the academic department, or other appropriate official, a written request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect. The Citadel official will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the Citadel official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed. (2) The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes are inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student’s privacy rights under FERPA. A student who wishes to ask The Citadel to amend a record should write the official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record the student wants changed, and specify why it should be changed. If The Citadel decides not to amend the record as requested, The Citadel will notify the student in writing of the decision and the student’s right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. (3) The right to provide written consent before The Citadel discloses personally identifiable information from the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. The Citadel discloses education records without a student’s prior written consent under the FERPA exception for disclosure to “school officials” with “legitimate educational interests.” A school official has a “legitimate educational interest” if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibilities for The Citadel. A “school official” is a person employed by The Citadel in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff), or a person or company with whom The Citadel has contracted as its agent to provide a service instead of using Citadel employees or officials (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent). At The Citadel, “school officials” include the Board of Visitors; the faculty; and personnel in the Offices of the President, Provost and Dean of the College, Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, Associate Provost and Dean of The Citadel Graduate College, Registrar, Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs, Director of Athletics, Director of Admissions, and Commandant. In addition, the Provost (for academic records) and the Commandant of Cadets (for disciplinary records) may give specific cadets, by virtue �The Citadel of their cadet duty position, limited access to the educational records of other cadets. These cadets must first attend a FERPA briefing and sign a Statement of Understanding before being provided access to other students’ educational records. The Citadel may also disclose appropriately designated “directory information” without written consent, unless a student has advised The Citadel to the contrary. “Directory information” is information that is generally not considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if released. Directory information includes student name, local and permanent address and telephone number, e-mail address, photograph, date and place of birth, major field of study, class schedule, full or part-time status, Dean’s List and Gold Star List, ROTC branch, dates of acceptance and attendance, years in school, anticipated date of graduation, degrees and awards received, graduation honors, academic and military awards, the most recent previous educational agency or institution attended by the student, cadet company and rank, duty status, class absence status, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, U.S. citizenship, extracurricular activities, and residency status. The Citadel may disclose directory information to parents, the public, and outside organizations without prior written consent. Outside organizations include, but are not limited to, companies that manufacture class rings or publish yearbooks. Students who do not wish to have directory information published must notify the Registrar within two weeks of the beginning of the fall semester each academic year. Requests to keep directory information confidential are valid only for the year in which they are made. The Citadel will disclose to the alleged victim of any crime of violence the final results of any student disciplinary proceeding conducted by The Citadel against the alleged perpetrator of such crime. Both the accuser and the accused will be informed of the final outcome of any Citadel disciplinary proceeding based on an alleged sex offense. The Citadel may also disclose to parents, without a student’s consent, alcohol or drug violations of either the College’s policies or local laws by students under 21 years of age. The Citadel will also disclose, to the court, information from a student’s file if that student or the student’s parent has initiated legal action against the institution or if the institution has initiated legal action against the parent or student. (4) The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by The Citadel to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is: Family Policy Compliance Office U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue, SW U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20202-5901 A copy of the “Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act,” as amended, and details of The Citadel policy on maintaining and disclosing student records may be obtained from the Office of the General Counsel. �51 Title IX at The Citadel Title IX of the U.S. Education Amendments of 1972 (“Title IX”) is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs and activities. The Citadel does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the education programs or activities that it operates including admissions and employment. Under Title IX, discrimination on the basis of sex can also include sexual harassment which is defined as conduct on the basis of sex that satisfies one or more of the following: 1. An employee of the College conditioning the provision of education benefits on participation in unwelcome sexual conduct (i.e., quid pro quo); or 2. Unwelcome conduct that a reasonable person would determine is so severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive that it effectively denies a person equal access to the institution’s education program or activity; or 3. Sexual assault (as defined in the Clery Act), dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking as defined in the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Any person may report sex discrimination, including sexual harassment (whether or not the person reporting is the person alleged to be the victim of conduct that could constitute sex discrimination or sexual harassment), in person, by mail, by telephone, or by electronic mail, using the contact information listed for the Title IX Coordinator, or by any other means that results in the Title IX Coordinator receiving the person’s verbal or written report. Such a report may be made at any time (including during non-business hours) by using the telephone number, electronic mail address, or by mail to the office address listed for the Title IX Coordinator.

Denominational Faith Groups: African Methodist Episcopal Alpha Christian Ministries Anglican Baptist Collegiate Ministry Bible Study Fellowship Campus Outreach Catholic Campus Ministry Charleston Wesley Foundation (United Methodist) Episcopal (TEC) Fellowship of Christian Athletes Jewish Student Union Latter-Day Saints Lutheran Student Movement Muslim Student Association The Navigators Officer’s Christian Fellowship Orthodox Christian Fellowship Presbyterian Journey: (PCUSA) Reformed Campus Fellowship VALOR (Campus Crusade for Christ Military Ministry) Young Life Campus Worship Built in 1936, Summerall Chapel has held a special place in the life of the Corps of Cadets since its dedication. For for many of our cadets, it is a sanctuary, a safe haven away from the constraints and stresses of cadet life. Of course, it is also a place of worship for many in our community. Throughout the school year, there are weekly Protestant and Catholic services of worship on Sundays, and an Anglican worship service on Monday evenings. Cadets provide dynamic vibrant leadership in all of these services. Finally, it is for all who enter a place of prayer. It’s not uncommon throughout the week to find staff and faculty sitting in prayer. The inscription on Summerall Chapel, “Remember Now Thy Creator in the Days of Thy Youth” (Ecclesiastes 12:1), embodies the focus of ministry at the chapel and its importance to cadets who need a source of strength beyond themselves. �Student Support Programs 61 Citadel Chapel Choirs Three cadet chapel choirs enhance services of worship on campus. They are the Catholic Chapel Choir, the Interdenominational Protestant Choir and Gospel Choir. These three choirs combine for special events each year such as Parents’ Day, Homecoming Sunday, the Christmas Candlelight Services, and Corps Anniversary Sunday. Greater Issues Series The Greater Issues Series presents two or more major addresses each academic year. In 1954, the series was inaugurated by General Mark Clark to enhance the preparation of Citadel cadets for roles as responsible members of our society. Since then, these addresses have brought to The Citadel an impressive group of distinguished speakers including Presidents of the United States, American and foreign dignitaries, scholars, diplomats, important military figures, and business leaders. Fine Arts Series Inaugurated in 1965, the Fine Arts Series has presented annually a wide variety of programs which have been both entertaining and culturally illuminating. All fourth-class and third-class cadets are encouraged to attend one approved fine arts performance each semester. Musical Organizations The Citadel Regimental Band and Pipes provides music for concerts, parades, reviews, and other official ceremonies both on and off campus. Music for basketball games is provided by The Citadel Pep Band, a group of members from within the Regimental Band. Academic Publications Founded in the spring of 1993, El Cid is the publication of The Citadel’s Tau Iota Chapter of Sigma Delta Pi, the National Collegiate Hispanic Honor Society. This publication is a refereed journal in Spanish that publishes select undergraduate and graduate creative writing. Only members of Tau Iota may be selected for the editorial team. The Gold Star Journal, The Scholarly Journal of the Corps of Cadets and Citadel Graduate College, publishes nonfiction papers from any discipline. This journal is produced by a staff of cadets for Corps Day. The Journal of the Scipio Africanus Society is published annually by a staff of cadets and serves as an outlet for cadet independent research in international affairs. The Shako documents the literary and artistic achievements of Citadel cadets and graduate students. All submissions are compiled, edited and published annually by cadets for distribution throughout the Citadel community. �The Citadel The Honor System The Cadet Honor System provides a unique contribution to the overall developmental process of the Citadel Experience. As an integral part of Corps life, its purpose is to promote ethical growth and inculcate a sense of integrity in Citadel graduates so that they instinctively conduct themselves in an honorable manner. The Honor Code states that a “cadet does not lie, cheat, or steal, nor tolerate those who do.” The code is enforced and supervised by a Cadet Honor Committee composed of First Class cadets who are elected in the fall of their junior year by the Fourth, Third, and Second Class cadets within their companies. These Honor Committee representatives are responsible for educating and assisting their fellow cadets on the Honor System and interpreting the honor code. When a cadet is reported for an honor violation, the circumstances are thoroughly investigated by members of the Honor Committee. If there is a prima facie case established against the cadet, he or she appears before an Honor Court composed of 10 members of the Honor Committee. A cadet accused of an honor violation is entitled to cadet counsel, and cross examination is allowed. A finding that a cadet has committed an honor violation requires a unanimous secret vote by the Honor Court. If a cadet is found to have committed an honor violation, and if the President confirms the Honor Court’s decision, the cadet is expelled from the Corps of Cadets. Under rare circumstances, the cadet may be granted leniency from the punishment of expulsion. The Honor Committee is responsible directly to the President of the college. A faculty advisor assists the Honor Committee. This officer provides guidance to the Honor Committee and acts in an advisory capacity to the court at each Honor Court trial. Department of Experiential Learning and Cadet Activities This department, with offices located in Mark Clark Hall, provides activities and services for cadets to develop outside the classroom that allow them to broaden their talents and interests. Major activity areas include publications, events, student leadership experiential learning opportunities, monthly blood drives, clubs and organizations. The department offers services to cadets, as well, such as the Ride-Drive Program, social media pages, and community service opportunities. Cadet Activities Publications The Brigadier newspaper is designed and laid out by cadets. The newspaper is delivered in an online format with print copies available for special editions. The Sphinx yearbook is the college yearbook of The Citadel. It is published annually in the spring by a staff of cadets. This publication serves as a semiofficial record of the cadets’ year. The cost of this publication is incorporated into the spring semester tuition. The Guidon, the handbook for the fourth class cadets, is published annually and is available online in early summer for the incoming freshmen. On Matriculation Day, each incoming cadet will receive a hard copy. This book contains a complete description of the activities of the Corps of Cadets, Citadel history, customs and courtesies, and duties and responsibilities of fourth class cadets. �Student Support Programs 63 Clubs, Groups and Organizations Membership in a wide variety of clubs, groups and organizations is available to all Citadel students. All 100+ clubs fall under the four pillars of The Citadel: Academic, Military, Character and Physical. Among these are discussion groups, professional societies, military groups, athletic clubs and religious groups. The span of these activities is so broad and so varied that all Citadel students should be able to find organizations that fit their interests and talents. Intramural, Club and Recreational Athletics (ICRA) The purpose of the ICRA program is to provide and promote safe and healthful means for competition, exercise, physical fitness and recreational pursuits for students, faculty and staff. ICRA is a division of the Department of Health and Human Performance (HHP). Intramural Athletics Citadel Intramurals are an integral part of cadet life with year-long competitive activities in individual sports and cadet company team sports. Cadet companies compete annually for the Board of Visitors Trophy, awarded to the Commanding Officer of the company accumulating the most intramural points. Club Sports Citadel Club Sports provides structure for student-run competitive sport teams not governed by the NCAA or Southern Conference, and other sports-related activities that may not be fully supported by the academics of HHP or events of Citadel Intramurals. Club Sport athletes are not part of Corps Squad. Physical Recreation The primary purpose of Deas Hall is to provide instructional support for students in the Department of Health and Human Performance (HHP), and to support activities of Intramural Athletics and Club Sports. Deas Hall is otherwise available to all students, faculty and staff. More information can be found at: www.citadel.edu/icra. Health Services The Citadel Infirmary provides acute care services for cadets in the South Carolina Corps of Cadets. These services include outpatient medical clinics on weekdays, a walk-in nurse clinic after hours and on weekends, and round-theclock inpatient care (36 beds) during the academic year. In the summer, limited out- patient services are provided for cadets enrolled in summer programs. Inpatient services resume on 1 July. The Infirmary staff includes a primary-care physician, a family nurse practitioner, a part-time orthopedic surgeon, staff nurses, nurse aides, an administrative assistant, and a receptionist. Certified athletic trainers conduct daily Sports Medicine clinics in the Infirmary to evaluate and treat orthopedic injuries. More serious injuries are referred to the Orthopedic Clinic (Monday and Friday mornings). Athletic trainers also provide coverage for intramural and intercollegiate athletics, on-campus military training, and club sports activities. �The Citadel Infirmary services are covered by the cadet Infirmary fee. A small inpatient charge is added for daytime and overnight admissions. Supplemental services such as immunizations, medications, lab work, X-Rays, and ECGs are provided for cadets at our cost and are applied to the cadet’s OneCard Restricted Account. Prescriptions for medications not administered by the Infirmary are delivered by a local pharmacy which bills the cadet’s insurance or charges the cadet’s OneCard account. If desired, the Infirmary secretary can provide an itemized list of Infirmary charges for parents to file for insurance reimbursement. The Infirmary is not staffed to file insurance claims. Cadets are required to carry student health insurance for all semesters they are present on campus. Student insurance is mandatory to defray the costs of hospitalization, emergency care, ambulance transportation, and/or specialty medical and surgical care. Charges for services not provided by the Infirmary must be settled directly with the medical provider. Cadets are required to notify the Infirmary immediately of any changes in insurance coverage. The Citadel does not have contracts with any off-campus hospitals, urgentcare centers, pharmacies, or medical/surgical/dental providers. In the event of an emergency, two large medical centers are located within two miles of the campus and EMS ambulances are on call 24/7 for transport. For more information on insurance, please visit the website:http://www.citadel.edu/root/infirmaryincoming-students/insurance-info. Department of Public Safety The mission of the Department of Public Safety is to “ensure the safety and security of all persons and property on The Citadel campus.” Public safety officers are state-commissioned law enforcement officers operating under the authority of the State Law Enforcement Division (SLED) with jurisdiction both on and off campus for incidents occurring on Citadel property. The Department of Public Safety is also responsible for enforcing campus parking regulations. Campus police may be reached at 953-5114. In an emergency, dial 811 from any campus phone. Employment The time of a cadet at The Citadel is filled with duties and obligations; however, there is opportunity for campus employment for cadets who believe they can manage the extra responsibility. The College offers a limited number of part-time positions with various campus activities as well as work-study jobs which are available to students with financial need. Employment is designed to provide for a modest portion of college expenses. �Student Support Programs 65 Cadet Facilities Mark Clark Hall Mark Clark Hall is named after General Mark W. Clark who served as president of The Citadel from 1954-1965. The campus post office, barber shop, a convenience store, a lounge for upper class cadets, and a Barnes & Noble bookstore are located on the first floor. Buyer auditorium, the Greater Issues Room, a lounge for fourth class cadets, and the offices of the Department of Experiential Learning and Cadet Activities are found on the second floor. The Honor Courtroom is located on the third floor, as are the offices of the Catholic Chaplain, the Episcopal Chaplain, and the campus photography department. Beach House The Colonel Robert R. McCormick Beach Club of The Citadel is located oceanfront on the Isle of Palms, about a half hour’s drive from the campus. The five-acre property includes a two-story beach house, the Blue & Grey Pavilion, a sand volleyball and basketball court, and shower and locker facilities. Beach access and parking are available to cadets, students, faculty, staff, Citadel Alumni Association Lifetime Members, and annual donors to The Citadel Foundation or The Citadel Brigadier Foundation above specific levels. Additionally, the venue may be rented for daytime or evening events through the Office of Event Management. Swain Boating Center The Swain Boating Center membership is available to students, faculty, and staff. Preference is given to students in the use of the center’s facilities. The club fleet consists of canoes, small sailboats, and outboard motorboats.the Swain Boating Center facilities consist of a clubhouse, dockage, marine railway, sail loft, and work area for maintenance and repair of small boats. Storage of privately owned boats is available for a small fee. Veteran Student Success Center The Veteran Student Success Center provides support and resources for all military-connected students. The center offers Veterans and Active Duty members a dedicated space to study, relax, and connect with their peers. Staff is available to navigate Department of Veterans Affairs Benefits for all militaryconnected students. �Military Policies General The Citadel is justly proud of its military training program which contributes significantly to the State of South Carolina and the nation in the form of military and civilian leadership. The Citadel is one of six senior Military Colleges remaining in the country. Citadel graduates are adding to the rich heritage of their alma mater as officers in the armed forces and as leaders in the state and nation. The ROTC training at The Citadel is conducted by active duty commissioned and noncommissioned officers of the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, and U.S. Marine Corps. These active duty military personnel are organized into the Department of Military Science, the Department of Naval Science, and the Department of Aerospace Studies. Cadets are encouraged to seek a commission in one of the armed force services; however, they are not required to accept a commission. Commandant of Cadets The Commandant of Cadets oversees the military aspect of all cadet life. Along with the Chief of Staff, the Assistant Commandant for Discipline, the Assistant Commandant of Operations and Training, the Assistant Commandant for Leadership Programs, the Commandant’s Sergeant Major, and his Special Staff, the Commandant designs, plans, and executes various leadership programs and activities for the Corps of Cadets. All cadet discipline, privileges, leaves, and special recognitions are managed inside this department. The Commandant and his team of TAC (Teach, Advise, Coach) Officers exercise the implementation of all Citadel policies as well as Cadet Regulations in their supervision of life in the barracks, through the teaching, advising, and coaching of all cadets. As a senior college Vice President, the Commandant is in continuous communication with the College President on all matters pertaining to the administration, conduct, training, and discipline of the Corps of Cadets. Discipline As a military college, The Citadel sets high standards of conduct and discipline. By instruction and example, cadets are taught to be neat in person and in uniform. Daily inspections of rooms ensure cleanliness and good order. Through individual personal contact, group meetings, and training, cadets are encouraged to uphold the traditions of The Citadel and the standards of honor, duty, and respect which are the core values of the college. A cadet who commits an act off-campus that reflects adversely on The Citadel or the Corps of Cadets may be punished as if the act had been committed on-campus should the alleged misconduct violate the cadet disciplinary code in the following manner: • potentially endangers the health, safety, or welfare of members of the campus community, or • potentially places college property at risk of damage, loss, or destruction, or �Military Policies 67 • occurs at a time when the cadet represents the College in an off-campus activity, or • involves conduct that charges one or more of the following: a felony act; a crime of moral turpitude; an act of violence; an act that involves the possession, use, or sale of an illegal drug or alcohol; or, an act involving racial or sexual harassment, sexual assault, or results in the student being found guilty in a court of law or the student declines to contest such charges although not admitting guilt (e.g. no contest or nolo contendere). During periods of furlough, the cadet disciplinary system may apply if the conduct meets these criteria. Leadership Leadership, initiative, and character are developed by placing cadets in positions of responsibility within the Corps of Cadets. In addition, all cadets are engaged in the Leadership Training Program which covers a wide range of topics to develop problem-solving techniques and expand general knowledge in real-life situations. These value-added sessions are conducted in classroom and practicum environments. All cadets live in the barracks. From reveille to taps, every hour of the cadet’s time is programmed. Regular habits of study and living, attention to duty, obedience to authority, and appreciation for order are considered among the most valuable features of The Citadel education. While some graduates enter the military profession, thousands in all walks of civilian life attest to the high value of the training received at this institution. The daily routine is regulated by the Corps of Cadets Training Schedule and the Commandant’s Yearly Training Plan and supported by the Cadet Regulations which include the Blue Book and the White Book. Commandants Classification of Cadets In terms of policies and procedures inside the Commandant's Department, cadets are classified according to the number of years they have been a cadet: C1 represents a freshman in his/her first year C2 represents a cadet in his/her second year C3 represents a cadet in his/her third year C4/5 represents a cadet in his/her fourth/fifth year These classifications have NO RELATIONSHIP to Academic Status. Allowances of Demerits Cadets who accumulate more than 20 demerits per month in their senior year, 22 per month in their junior year, 25 per month in their sophomore year, or 30 per month in their freshman year, will be declared conduct deficient. Cadets repeating any part of the fourth class year are allowed only 25 demerits per month. Conduct deficient cadets are not allowed to take normal leaves or passes and are required to serve one hour of punishment for each demerit over the specified limit. Any cadet exceeding the allowed limit of demerits or other punishments may be discharged. �The Citadel Clothing/Luggage All cadets are required to furnish their own sheets, pillows, and pillow cases. A bedspread and blanket will be issued to each cadet when they arrive. Beds and mattresses are provided by the College. Lists of required and suggested items for freshmen to bring can be found on The Citadel webpage inside the Fourth Class Success Packet. It is imperative that items be purchased prior to arrival. Training begins immediately and there is no time provided to acquire anything missing. Policies require graduating seniors to retrieve their stored items no later than 15 days following commencement. After that time items will be removed and donated to local charity. It is not the responisbility of warehouse personnel to notify cadets having stored items. Cadets are advised to bring inexpensive trunks and suitcases. Luggage must be stored in the Central Warehouse Facility on campus. Only one overnight bag for weekend or athletic trips may be kept in a cadet’s room. On a limited basis, excess luggage may be stored in the Central Supply Facility at the risk of the owner. Luggage and boxes of supplies may be shipped to The Citadel in advance. They should be sent by commercial transportation and clearly identified with the following address: Cadet’s Full Name, Central Supply, The Citadel, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, South Carolina 29409. Automobiles All vehicles operated on campus by cadets must be registered with the Commandant’s Department. Each cadet classified as C3 or C4 is authorized to have an automobile at The Citadel. No other cadet is allowed this privilege regardless of academic standing. Registration is a privilege, not a right. Registered vehicles must meet current home-state requirements with regard to registration, insurance, and safety inspections. All vehicles operated and parked on campus are at the owner’s risk. All unregistered or illegally parked vehicles are subject to ticketing and towing at the owner’s risk and expense. Certain conduct infractions may affect a cadet’s ability to maintain an automobile on campus. Parking fees are charged for all cadet parking. Each registered vehicle will be assigned to a specific, 24 hour-a-day campus property lot. A set of decals for this lot will be affixed to each registered vehicle, which can only be parked in the lot designated. Cadets may park in any space inside that lot except for those assigned to specific leadership positions. These reserved spaces will be identified around each barracks. On major college weekends, cadets may be required to move their vehicles to other college procured locations to allow for family, alumni, and guests to park on or near the main campus. NO CADET IS ALLOWED TO PARK IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THE CITADEL. This area is defined by Spring Street on the south, Rutledge Avenue on the east, and St. Margaret Street on the north. Parking in this area will result in ticketing and possible towing by the Charleston City Policy and/or disciplinary action from the Commandant’s Department for the cadet. 4th class cadets are NOT authorized to have, maintain, drive, or park an automobile on The Citadel campus or within this prescribed area at any time during their freshman year. They should not bring a car to Charleston. Two- or three-wheeled motorized vehicles may not be operated on campus. �Military Policies 69 Reserves and National Guard Cadets may become members of Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marine Corps Reserves or National Guard (Army or Air). Students who join these organizations should consider joining local units in the Charleston area for ease of transportation and conducting business. Although Reserve and National Guard duty is a priority responsibility, cadets must be aware of their academic and Citadel military responsibilities and make all efforts to ensure that conflicts are kept to a minimum. Leave It is expected that parents will not ask for special leave for their sons or daughters except in cases of extreme emergencies. In every case, the decision is left to Citadel authorities as to whether the circumstances warrant the granting of the leave. EMERGENCY LEAVE. Emergency leave may be granted in the event of death or critical illness of a member of the cadet’s immediate family. Duration of this leave will be predicated upon distance and time required but should normally not exceed five class days. The immediate family includes parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, and the permanent resident members of the family. Critical illness is defined as an illness of such proportions that death may be imminent. SPECIAL LEAVE. Special leave normally may be granted upon request of the family or guardian for events/activities which involve his/her immediate family. Cadets may also be granted special leave for such unusual business affairs as cannot be arranged by correspondence but require the presence of the cadet in person. In all cases, the final decision rests with the Battalion TAC Officer. OTHER LEAVE. The Citadel has a weekend and overnight leave policy based on cadet's CSTATUS and includes requirements for maintaining academic, physical, and conduct proficiency. Fourth class cadets are not authorized overnight or weekend leaves during the first semester. Furloughs for the Corps of Cadets are scheduled throughout the year. They include Fall Furlough (November), Winter Furlough (December-January), and Spring Furlough (March). Specific dates for these can be found on the college calendar. Cadets may depart after their last class in the case of Fall and Spring Furloughs which always begin on a Friday and end on a Sunday. CADETS MAY NOT DEPART EARLIER. Parents are highly discouraged from purchasing tickets that require early departure. Cadets will not be allowed to leave. In the case of Winter Furlough, cadets may depart after completing their last exam. Return times from all furloughs are posted on the Commandant’s Department website accessed from The Citadel Home Page. It is imperative that ALL cadets return not later than the published accountability formation. �The Citadel MEDICAL SERVICES. Except in an emergency occurring on leave requiring immediate attention, a cadet will not arrange for or receive professional treatment from doctors or specialists without the knowledge of The Citadel Physician. Applications for any special leave required for such treatment will be submitted to The Citadel Physician and, if approved, will be forwarded by The Citadel Physician to the Commandant. Cadets who are receiving medical care under the auspices of a private doctor will in all cases report the nature of the treatment, to include the illness and prescribed medication, to The Citadel Physician. SPECIAL MEDICAL AND DENTAL SERVICE. (1) Dental work, special eye examinations, etc. should be scheduled during the summer, winter, or spring furlough periods. (2) If the services of a local dentist, oculist, doctor, or other specialist are deemed necessary, cadets will make their own appointments; however, they must inform The Citadel Physician. If desired, the Infirmary will schedule the required appointment for the cadet. The Fourth Class System The purpose of the Fourth Class System at The Citadel is to lay the foundation, early in a cadet’s career, for the development of those qualities of character and discipline implied in the mission of The Citadel as a military college—to educate principled leaders with an alert mind and a sound body who have been taught high ideals, honor, integrity, loyalty, and patriotism; who accept the responsibilities which accompany leadership; and who have sufficient professional knowledge to take a place in our competitive world. These personal qualities must be deeply ingrained in individuals so that neither time nor troubles will diminish their respect for complying with the customs and traditions set forth for the fourth class cadets’ conduct. Self-discipline and self-evaluation develop graduates whose integrity and sense of duty cause them to serve selflessly beyond the prescribed limits of their tasks. The Fourth Class System is both difficult and demanding. It represents an abrupt change from the life normally experienced in the home and encompasses the period from the cadet’s arrival for his or her first year at The Citadel until determined by the Commandant of Cadets and Cadet Leadership. It is administered professionally and requires a full measure of mental preparedness and physical endurance. Because of the nature of the new cadets’ training during their first weeks at The Citadel, physical demands are great. Experience indicates that the cadets who, prior to admission, have conditioned themselves physically are best able to meet the training requirements. At the time of their medical examination, cadets should consult with their physician regarding their body weight. Particular attention should be given to estimated percent body fat, which provides a much more accurate figure for determining proper body weight than height/weight charts. If body weight loss appears to be indicated, cadets should follow the physician’s advice relative to reducing caloric intake and increasing caloric expenditure. �Military Policies 71 The Charleston climate is generally conducive to year-round outdoor physical activity; however, the hot, humid conditions of August and September present several problems worthy of consideration. It is, therefore, important that cadets prepare themselves by controlled exposure to similar conditions during exercise. Preparation guidance can be found in the Fourth Class Success Packet on The Citadel home page. In addition, each applicant for entry into The Citadel should be assured through a medical examination that there is no history of physical ailments which could possibly cause discharge due to inability to participate in the Fourth Class System. The Fourth Class System by nature appears arbitrary on the surface. It demands prompt and unquestioning obedience of authority through the use of a collection of customs and traditions. However, each of the elements or customs has a special purpose in furthering a cadet’s development. The system includes standing at a rigid position of attention, turning square corners when walking, undergoing inspections before formations, learning various items of fourth class knowledge, working on approved company details such as minor chores incident to keeping one’s own area of the barracks in order, submitting to a variety of minor restrictions concerning the use of certain campus grounds and facilities, the wearing of the uniform, and the general conduct of a fourth class cadet. Cadets who are unable to meet the desired standards or violate one or more of the customs are subject to corrective action. This can range from a verbal reprimand to walking tours on the barracks quadrangle and may include restriction to the limits of campus. In extreme cases, a cadet who is unable to conform to the military way of life may be brought before a Suitability Board to determine fitness to continue at The Citadel. The measures described above are designed to test a cadet’s mettle and to determine motivation for cadet life. Their value lies in developing cadets’ ability to perform their duty successfully under trying and stress-producing conditions. Hazing is not a part of the Fourth Class System and is not tolerated. The suffering of degradation, humiliation, and indignity does not foster the rapid development of those qualities sought in fourth class cadets. The Fourth Class System is a formidable challenge to any young person. The decision to enter The Citadel must be preceded by a conviction on the part of the prospective cadets and their parents that these future cadets have the mental and physical characteristics appropriate to the system and possess a willingness to undergo the system’s rigors with a determination to see it through and to reap its benefits. Although the system is demanding and difficult, the rewards are considerable, and they more than justify the effort. At recognition by the upper class cadets, a better person emerges—one who is mentally, physically, and ethically prepared to accept the responsibilities of leadership which will ultimately be given at The Citadel and in the world. �The Citadel An incoming cadet is classified as a “Legacy” if at least one or more of the following criteria are confirmed: • Father and/or mother are graduates and former members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets • Brother and/or sister are current members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets • Brother and/or sister are graduates and former members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets • Grandfather and/or grandmother are graduates and former members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets These are the ONLY qualifications that relate to the determination of “Legacy” cadets. Fourth Class System for Transfer Students Those students transferring from the national service academies (specifically the Military Academy, the Naval Academy, the Air Force Academy, the Coast Guard Academy, and the Merchant Marine Academy), Virginia Military Institute, or any other institution at which such students have: a. successfully completed their participation in a fourth class or plebe system; b. been full-time students in good standing in an ROTC program for the period of their enrollment at such an institution; c. been enrolled at any of the institutions listed above for a minimum of two semesters; shall have the option of requesting a transfer out of the Fourth Class System after one semester at The Citadel, provided at that time they are at least academic sophomores. Eligible students exercising this option to transfer out of the Fourth Class System shall have no cadet rank, nor have any authority over the other fourth class cadets for the balance of the academic year. All other transfer students, regardless of academic standing, will undergo a full year of the Fourth Class System at The Citadel. The Commandant of Cadets will make the final decision on requests for transfer. The Citadel’s Physical Effectiveness Program There are two (2) parts of The Citadel Physical Effectiveness Program: Weight Management and Physical Fitness. Every cadet is expected to meet the standards established in each of these areas at all times. A Corps Height/ Weight Screening is held each fall and spring semester. The Corps Physical Fitness Test is administered each term. By regulation, cadets are required to take these tests every semester. Detailed information on both is found in Chapter Five of the cadet regulation entitled The White Book. Cadets not meeting the standards of the Corps Physical Fitness Test are considered Physically Deficient resulting in loss of privileges and rank. Programs are designed to help those cadets work towards reaching the minimum requirements in both fitness and weight management. These programs are mandatory, and it is the individual cadet’s responsibility to participate. Seniors who do not pass the Corps Physical Fitness Test as required each semester will not be allowed to participate in the Fall Semester Ring Presentation or the Spring Semester Graduation Activities to include the Long Gray Line Parade and the Commencement Ceremony. �ROTC Programs 73 ROTC Programs The Citadel offers commissioning opportunities in all branches of the armed services. While every cadet must successfully complete a course in one of four programs each semester of their freshmen and sophomore year, cadets are not required to enroll in any ROTC commissioning program nor are they required to accept a commission should it be offered. All cadets are required to satisfy an ROTC requirement for every semester in which they are enrolled at The Citadel. Study abroad cadets will complete ROTC requirements via independent study/online; see respective ROTC department for approval. If extenuating circumstances beyond the control of the cadet require that he/she withdraw from or not enroll in ROTC, the cadet who is pursuing or may wish to pursue a commission must have the permission of the head of that ROTC Detachment. The cadet who is not pursuing a commission must have the permission of the academic advisor and the Associate Provost. Cadets who miss or fail an ROTC class must meet that requirement in order to graduate. When cadets are making up a missed ROTC requirement or changing to another ROTC, they are not, without permission of the head of the ROTC Detachment, permitted to enroll in an ROTC class at a level lower than their academic class. For example, a member of the senior class who wishes to change to another ROTC must enroll in a senior-level course in the new ROTC unless the head of the ROTC Detachment authorizes enrollment in a lower level course. ROTC classes may not be used to meet elective requirements in any course of study. ROTC Enhancement The Armed Forces Scholarship Program has been established to assist the Air Force, Army, and Navy ROTC Detachments at The Citadel in bringing the best and brightest officer candidates to the school. Prospective students must have a minimum 1200 SAT (or 27 ACT), a minimum high school GPA of 3.2, and have accepted an ROTC scholarship prior to matriculation as a freshman at The Citadel in order to be considered. Recipients of the scholarship will receive an annual award of $3,500 for each year in which they receive the ROTC scholarship. Recipients of the Armed Forces Scholarship will be notified by The Citadel’s Director of Financial Aid & Scholarships. A student must maintain a 3.0 minimum GPA to maintain the Armed Forces Scholarship. Failure to do so will result in the cancellation of the scholarship. The Armed Forces Scholarship will not be reinstated once it has been lost. Students who are awarded an ROTC Scholarship after matriculating at The Citadel are not eligible for an Armed Forces Scholarship. ARMY ROTC PROGRAM The mission of Army ROTC is to commission the future officer leadership of the U.S. Army and to motivate young people to be better Americans. Army ROTC is the only commissioning program that offers future officers the opportunity to serve in the regular Army as well as the National Guard or the Army Reserve. Regardless of cadets’ academic majors, there is an Army specialty that can fulfill their goals. �The Citadel U.S. Army ROTC Graduates Graduates of The Citadel’s Army ROTC program, who have accepted a contract, have the opportunity to serve their country in a variety of branches and specialties. Those cadets who have excelled academically and militarily, both in the classroom and at the ROTC Advance Camp, and who have clearly demonstrated high character and outstanding leadership ability, will be selected as Distinguished Military Students. Graduates of the Army ROTC program may serve as officers on Active Duty, members of the United States Army Reserve, or Army National Guard. Those who desire to be in the National Guard or U.S. Army Reserve will serve on active duty to complete their officer basic course, and then serve as a “citizen soldier” in a Reserve or Guard unit near their homes, graduate schools, places of employment, or in the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR). No matter what type of option is chosen, the total obligation is eight years of active or reserve duty, or a combination of both. Scholarships The Army sponsors 4-, 3-1/2-, 3-, 2-1/2-, 2-, and 1-year academic scholarships for outstanding cadets who desire careers as officers in the United States Army. High school students must apply before 17 January of their senior year for four-year and three-year Advanced Designee scholarships. Applications may be obtained at www.armyrotc.com. The application process for two-year and three-year Campus Based Scholarships begins in November of the cadet’s freshman (three-year) and sophomore (two-year) years. The Army scholarship currently pays tuition and fees or room and board for qualified applicants. The amounts are adjusted annually due to institutional tuition and fee changes. Cadets interested in Reserve Component Duty can apply for a two-year Dedicated or Guaranteed Reserve Forces Duty Scholarship or for a two-year Dedicated Army National Guard Scholarship in November of their sophomore year. Pay and Allowances Cadets enrolled in the ROTC Basic Course, who are academic freshmen or sophomores, receive a uniform allowance each academic year. Cadets who are in the Advanced Course (junior and senior years) and contracted with the Army to be commissioned when they graduate receive a uniform allowance. Additionally, contracted cadets will receive a non-taxable subsistence allowance of $420/month for ten month of the school year. All scholarship students receive a textbook allowance of $600 per semester. Between their junior and senior years, all contracted cadets attend a four-week Advance Camp and receive one-half of the base pay of a Second Lieutenant plus travel to and from either Charleston, SC, or their home of record. �ROTC Programs 75 Summer Training Outstanding cadets also have the opportunity to attend U.S. Army training such as Airborne school, Air Assault school, Mountain Warfare training, and/or Cadet Troop Leadership Training (CTLT) with active duty Army units around the globe. Cadets are allowed to enlist or retain their membership in the Army National Guard or U.S. Army Reserve under the Simultaneous Membership Program (SMP). Formal Enrollment Requirements The basic requirements for enrollment in the Army ROTC program must be fully met before the Professor of Military Science can consider a cadet for enrollment in the Army program. (Cadets not meeting these standards are not eligible for commissions or ROTC monetary allowances.) To be eligible, a cadet must: 1. Be a citizen of the United States of America. 2. Be of good character. Cadets convicted by a civil or military court of offenses other than minor traffic violations are not eligible for enrollment without specific approval of the Department of the Army. A cadet may apply for a waiver for a conviction, provided the offense was nonrecurring and did not involve moral turpitude. 3. Maintain a satisfactory academic record. A minimum of a 2.00 cumulative GPA is required. 4. Maintain a satisfactory disciplinary record and leadership rating. This rating is determined by the Professor of Military Science. 5. Pass the Cadet Command Fitness Assessment (CCFA) and meet/maintain the required height and weight standards. 6. Be physically and medically qualified under Department of the Army medical standards. Formal enrollment in the Advanced Course and contracting requires a cadet to meet all of the above criteria, and validation of these criteria is normally done during the cadet’s sophomore year. Waivers for physical defects are granted only in exceptional circumstances, and then only by the authority of the Department of the Army. For all Cadets who attend an Army (MLTY) 101-402 course, the following documents are required to participate within the Army ROTC program. These documents will be uploaded into the Cadet Command Information Management Module (CCIMM). CCIMM is a secured and controlled database that is a specifically designed web interface for the U.S. Army Cadet Command. CCIMM records, tracks, and reports all data relative to Cadets and Cadet ctivities within the Command. It is a web-based application designed to reduce data entry, decrease redundancy, and increase efficiency. CCIMM provides visibility at all levels of the command and facilitates the ability to manage Cadets from acceptance through commission. �The Citadel The following documents are the required documents needed to attend and participate in any Army ROTC course. These documents are to be turned in during the fall semester; these are needed in order for the Cadet to be entered into CCIMM, receive the annual commutation pay ( ̴$880) and verify citizenship. Items “C,D,E,F” are created by the Army ROTC Human Resource Assistant (HRA) and verified and signed by the Cadet.: A. USACC 139 Application and Enrollment B. SF 1199 Direct Deposit or Fast Start Form (SF 1199 must be signed by the bank) C. W4 Tax Form D. DD 2058 State Residency E. SGLV Life Insurance F. DD 93 Next of Kin G. Birth Certificate H. SSN Card NAVY/MARINE ROTC PROGRAM The purpose of the Navy and Marine Corps NROTC Program at The Citadel is to educate and train cadets for professional service as officers in the U.S. Naval Services. The Citadel’s NROTC Program is uniquely suited to provide extensive operational training opportunities as a result of being located in proximity to several military bases and training facilities. Additionally, frequent visits to The Citadel and the Charleston area by operational Navy and Marine Corps units provide several “hands-on” training evolutions for students in The Citadel’s NROTC Program. Two programs are offered by the NROTC Program, leading to commissions as Ensigns (Navy) or Second Lieutenants (Marines): 1. The Navy/Marine Corps Scholarship Program includes selected Naval Scholarship candidates assigned to The Citadel who have their tuition and a portion of their college expenses paid by the Department of the Navy and will be commissioned upon graduation. 2. The Navy/Marine Corps College Program is that part of the NROTC Program in which students, who have not received national NROTC scholarships, pursue education and training for commissions in the Navy or Marine Corps. College Program students are eligible to compete for Naval Scholarships while students at The Citadel, or may be selected for Advanced Standing within the College Program. Naval ROTC Scholarship Program Navy/Marine Corps Scholarship students are selected through national competition and attend one of the colleges or universities with NROTC units. The Navy/Marine Corps Scholarship midshipmen attending The Citadel may enroll in any academic major offered by the college. However, all Navy option midshipmen, regardless �ROTC Programs 77 of major, are required to complete MATH 131/132 or MATH 106/107 and PHYS 221/222 (with associated laboratories). All Navy/Marine Corps midshipmen are required to be enrolled in the Service Specific Naval Science Labs. All four-year Navy and Marine Corps NROTC Scholarship students receiving a commission must also attend three summer training sessions with pay. In return, the Department of the Navy, via The Citadel NROTC Unit, provides tuition, certain fees, a textbook allowance, a uniform allowance, and a monthly subsistence allowance. Upon graduation, NROTC Scholarship midshipmen receive commissions as Ensigns in the U.S. Navy or Second Lieutenants in the U.S. Marine Corps and serve on active duty a minimum of five y ears. For additional information, please see the NROTC website at www.nrotc.navy.mil and NROTC Unit, The Citadel’s website at www.citadel.edu/nrotc. Naval ROTC College Program The NROTC College Program is offered for cadets who wish to earn commissions as officers in the U.S. Navy or U.S. Marine Corps but were not recipients of NROTC Scholarships. College Program students are required to enroll in Naval Science classes, participate with the NROTC Unit in scheduled training and events, and may compete for a variety of other Naval Scholarships offered by the Chief of Naval Education and Training. Each year a number of College Program cadets at The Citadel may receive one, two, or three-year NROTC scholarships. Additionally, some College Program students, who have not previously been offered Naval Scholarships, may be selected for Advanced Standing prior to beginning their junior year. Students selected for Advanced Standing must attend a minimum of one summer training course, with pay, usually the summer after their junior year. College Program students in Advanced Standing will be provided with all Naval Science textbooks, an annual uniform allowance, and a monthly subsistence allowance during the junior and senior years. Upon graduation, these Naval cadets receive commissions in the U.S. Navy or the U.S. Marine Corps and serve on active duty for a minimum of four years. Formal Enrollment Requirements To be eligible for enrollment in the Naval ROTC program, cadets must: 1. be citizens of the United States; 2. have reached the 17th anniversary of their birth by September 1 of the year enrolled; 3. not have reached their 27th birthday by December 31 of the year they expect to graduate (this can be waived); and 4. be physically qualified.

Additionally, all Active Duty students must also enroll in Navy or Marine Corps Training Labs each semester. The Senior Leadership Integration Seminar (LDRS 411) is not a graduation requirement for Active Duty students. AIR FORCE ROTC PROGRAM The mission of The Citadel’s Air Force ROTC Detachment is to develop leaders and citizens of character for tomorrow's Air Force and Space Force. Emphasis is placed on the preparation of dedicated professionals who readily accept responsibility, think critically and creatively, and write and speak effectively.AFROTC cadets commission into one of the 100+ officer career fields available. Whatever your interest, there is likely an Air Force or Space Force career to match. Citadel graduates have served the Air Force and the nation honorably in war and peace. Today’s Citadel cadets will assume important command and leadership positions in the United States Air Force and Space Force. Four-Year Program The Air Force ROTC program is designed to be a four-year commissioning program. To enroll in the program, cadets should register for the academic class (AERO 101) and leadership laboratory (AERO 450) at the beginning of their freshman year. Freshmen and Sophomore years, cadets will study the organization, mission, and functions of the Air Force, the development of air and space power from its inception, as well as fundamental leadership, followership and communication skills. �The Citadel At the end of sophomore year, cadets who are physically qualified and have maintained good academic standing may apply to the advanced portion of our program knonw as te Professional Officer Corps (POC). If accepted, cadets will attend a two-week summer field training course between their sophomore and junior years. Cadets enrolled in the POC (junior and senior years), will study leadership in theory and practice, the principles and functions of management, problem solving, the military justice system, the role of the professional officer, and U.S. National Security Policy. In additiion, cadets continue o prepare for entry into active duty. Formal Enrollment Requirements To be eligible to pursue a commission through the Air Force ROTC Program, a cadet must: 1. Be a citizen of the United States; 2. Maintain a satisfactory academic record (at least a 2.0 cumulative GPA for contract and 2.5 cumulative GPA for scholarship); 3. Pass the Air Force Physical Fitness Assessment; 4. Pass the Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT); 5. Be of good moral character; 6. Be medically qualified; 7. Successfully complete a summer field trainign course 8: Agree to serve on active duty for a period of time. a. Most career fields require four-year commitment upon entering active duty. b. Pilot: ten-year commitment after completion of pilot training c. Remotely Piloted Aircraft/Combat Systems Operator/ Air Battle Manager: six-year commitment after completion of training. AFROTC Field Training Citadel cadets pursuing a commission through AFROTC are required to attend a two-week summer training course at Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery, AL between their sophomore and junior years. Field training is a memorable experience in which cadets get an introduction to Air Force life and operations. Each cadet receives practical guidance in leadership, small-arms familiarization, physical training, and expeditionary operations. Professional Development Training The vast scope of the United States Air Force operations is difficult to portray in the classroom. Air Force ROTC offers Professiional Development Training (PDT) opportunities to deservng cadets. Some of our PDT opportunities include: Air Force base vists, Air Force Academy Freefall Parachute Training, Air Force Research Laboratory Scholars Program, Combat Rescue Officer Program, National Reconnaissance Office Summer Internship, Language Enable Airman Program, and more. Cadets return to school with a better perspective of the Air Force's global nature. Ecperience has shown that PDTs are of considerable value in developing the cadets' appreciation of the Air Force officer's life and career. �ROTC Programs 81 AFROTC Scholarship Programs The Air Force offers three types of scholarships to deserving students. All scholarships are highly competitive and awarded on merit. Type 1 — pays full college tuition for both in-state and out-of-state cadets, most lab fees and $600 per year for books. Approximately 5 percent of our 4-year scholarship winners will be offered a Type 1 scholarship. Type 2 — pays college tuition and most lab fees up to $18,000 and $600 per year for books. Approximately 15 percent of our 4-year scholarship winners will be offered a Type 2 scholarship (mostly in technical fields). All 3-year scholarships are Type 2. Type 7 — pays full college tuition and most lab fees up to the equivalent of the in-state rate. These students also receive $600 per year for books. Type 7 scholarships may be converted to a Type 2 for 3 years. Out-ofstate recipients attending The Citadel typically convert their Type 7 to a Type 2. Scholarships are awarded under two separate programs. The High School Scholarship Program (HSSP) is open to graduating high school seniors. The In-College Scholarship Program (ICSP) is open to college freshmnan and sophomores. High School Scholarship Program The Air Force ROTC High School Scholarship Program (HSSP) provides three- and four-year scholarships to deserving high school seniors. Students can apply by completing an online application by January of their senior year. Details on how to apply for HSSP scholarships, eligibility requirements, and the on-line application can be found at www.afrotc.com. Selectiion is based on: GPA, SAT/ACT score, Air Force Fitness Assessment, extracurricular activities, leadership potential, AFROTC interview, and desired academic major. In-College Scholarship Program The In-College Scholarship Program (ICSP) offers two- to three-year scholarships to deserving college freshmen and sophomores in all majors. At The Citadel, all eligible AFROTC cadets are automatically competed each semester starting Spring Freshmen year until they go to Field Training (summer between sophomore and junior year). Selection is based on: Collee GPA, Air Force Fitness Assessment, and Commander's Ranking. ICSP eligibility requirements vary slightly each semester, but typically cadets must: • Be United States citizen • Pass the Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (cadet may use ACT/SAT score if unable to take AFOQT in time for board) • Pass the Air Force ROTC Physical Fitness Assessment • Have at least a 2.5 cumulative college grade point average • Complete a physical examination and be certified as medically qualified by the Department of Defense Medical Examination Review Board (DODMERB). �The Citadel Additional Pay and Allowances All Air Force cadets are provided an annual uniform allowance of $800. Contract cadets aer provided a monthly subsistence allowance: te current rates are: $300 for freshman, $350 for sophomores, $450 for juniiors, and $500 for seniors. Scholarship cadets are also paid an annual $600 book allowance. �83 Expenses The Citadel is supported by the State of South Carolina. The costs of operation are underwritten through fees collected from the students, appropriations made by the General Assembly of South Carolina, and contributions to The Citadel. Nonresidents are required to pay a larger portion of the costs of their education than is required of residents of South Carolina. The Citadel Treasurer is responsible for the collection of monies due The Citadel. All correspondence concerning fees, payments, and status of accounts should be directed to that office. If referral to a collection agency is required for overdrawn accounts, the amount referred will include the collection agency fee. If an account is unpaid, the college will initiate internal and external collections proceedings. These proceedings will include credit bureau reporting, referring accounts to outside collections and State of South Carolina collection efforts. Accounts referred for collection will incur additional collection costs paid by the student. Fees Students attending the day program at The Citadel pay three primary fees: college fees, auxiliary fees, and a OneCard Restricted deposit. Active duty military personnel assigned to military units for educational purposes pay the same college fees as cadets. The college reserves the right to adjust fees to meet the current cost of operation should it become necessary. This applies to all educational programs at The Citadel. Current fees are available on The Citadel’s web page. The student assumes responsibility for payment of all fees and overdrafts. All fees and deposits are due and payable by semester, prior to the date of reporting to school. Bills are normally due the first Friday in August. Failure to meet billing deadlines subjects the student to being dropped from enrollment at The Citadel. For incoming freshman cadets or returning upper class cadets, failure to meet billing deadlines may result in the loss of space in the Corps of Cadets and a late payment charge. Remittances by money order or check should be made payable to The Citadel and mailed to the Treasurer, The Citadel, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, South Carolina 29409. Remittances by credit card (Mastercard, Visa, Discover, or American Express) may be paid on line via a secure connection at the citadel.edu website. There may be a 2.75% convenience fee charged for the use of credit card payments, but no charge for e-check payments. Information relative to financing educational fees on a monthly installment basis may be secured by contacting the Treasurer’s Office at The Citadel or by viewing the Treasurer’s Office link on The Citadel’s web page at citadel.edu. The Director of Financial Aid and Scholarships also has information concerning financing educational fees through loans other than the guaranteed student loan. Financing arrangements require time for processing, so it is essential that application be made as early as possible prior to the beginning of the school year. �The Citadel Expenses Overdrawn Accounts: A student whose account is overdrawn will not be issued or be allowed to send copies of his or her official transcript, be issued a diploma, or be permitted to enroll in additional course work until satisfactory settlement of the account has been made. Non-negotiable Checks: There will be a handling charge of $30 for a nonnegotiable check. The college will pursue collection procedures as provided by the laws of the State of South Carolina. The Citadel will not accept personal checks from individuals who have issued two non-negotiable checks or one non-negotiable check which has not been redeemed. ATM machine: The college contracts with a major bank to provide an ATM machine in Mark Clark Hall. Students can access their personal bank accounts through this machine. This is a convenient and secure method to handle cash and eliminates the need for students to have large amounts of cash on hand. Resident Tuition and Fees Any undergraduate student or prospective student whose status concerning entitlement to payment of in-state tuition and fees is uncertain has the responsibility of securing a ruling from The Citadel by providing all relevant information on special application forms. These forms can be obtained from the Office of the Registrar and are to be completed and returned to that office at least two weeks prior to the last day of classes for any semester or summer term for which the student is attempting to qualify for payment of the in-state tuition and fee rate. Until such time that eligibility for residency is confirmed, out-of-state fees will be due and payable. Refunds will be issued when a ruling awards in-state status. Eligibility for payment of in-state tuition and fees shall be determined under the provisions of Sections 59-112-10 through 59-112-100, South Carolina Code of Laws, 1976, as amended. A copy of this law may be obtained from The Citadel Registrar’s Office. Fee Descriptions College fees support the general operations of the college. A portion of college fees is earmarked to provide debt service for bonds issued to support construction and renovation of education and general facilities and equipment of the college. These are the only fees that are different for in state and out of state students. Auxiliary fees include athletic support, room, board, infirmary care, and laundry and dry cleaning. A portion of these fees is designed to pay debt service for the auxiliary and athletic facilities. OneCard Restricted deposit is used to pay for uniforms, uniform alterations, accessories, books, academic supplies, and haircuts. The amount of the deposit is determined annually based upon the average needs of cadets. Certain academic programs and certain corps activities will require other expenditures that are unique to that activity. If a cadet’s costs exceed the deposit amount, the cadet will be required to pay in full or provide additional deposit money. Any unused portion of the deposit will be carried over to the following semester. All unspent funds will be refunded upon graduation or discharge. �85 Uniforms: All cadets are required to wear The Citadel uniform, which is issued by the College. New cadets are required to be outfitted in new uniforms and uniform accessories issued by the college. New cadets should not bring a supply of civilian clothes other than those which are worn upon reporting to the college, as they are not permitted to wear civilian clothes except during authorized furloughs. The cost of uniforms, although a paid fee, should be viewed as a clothing expense which is incidental to attending any college. With proper care, uniforms should last for several years. Requirements in subsequent years will depend on the manner in which cadets have cared for their uniforms. The overall cost of the uniforms should not exceed that which would be incurred in purchasing clothes to attend a civilian college. Additional sets of uniforms may be purchased as desired (for cash) in the Cadet Store. The woolen uniforms issued to cadets are custom-made for The Citadel. Once the uniforms have been fitted, the entire cost will be charged to the cadet. Since the uniforms are tailor-made to the measurements of each cadet after enrollment at The Citadel, every cadet withdrawing from college will be charged a fee for canceling the purchase of the uniforms. In order to keep the appearance of the Corps of Cadets at the highest level, an inspection will be made of the uniforms of members of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes at the beginning of the school year. If the uniforms do not meet the minimum standards of appearance, the individual will be required to purchase replacements of unserviceable uniform items. The Citadel Tuition Payment Plan The Citadel Tuition Payment Plan (CTPP) allows all students and families to finance the cost of Tuition, Auxiliary Fees (Housing/Room/Board), and OneCard. Enrollment deadlines can be found on the Treasurer’s web page at www.citadel.edu\treasurer. Failure to pay any outstanding balance by the end of the semester will result in a registration hold being placed on their account until the balance is paid off. Statement of Students’ Accounts Students have three accounts at the Citadel, a student account, the OneCard Restricted Account, and the Open Account. All are available for review online. It is incumbent upon the students to verify each charge or credit made to their accounts. The Restricted Account and the Open Account are both different accounts on the OneCard. The Restricted Account is automatically loaded each fall and spring semester. It is used to purchase scholastic items only. This includes books, supplies, haircuts, uniforms, tailoring, and accessories. The Open Account on the One Card can be loaded with additional funds for use at campus facilities. The Open Account is used mainly to purchase food, drinks, and other items that cannot be purchase on the Restricted Account. To deposit funds, you can send cash or check to the One Card Office located in Bond Hall, room 244. You may also go online via Lesesne Gateway and navigate to Campus Center to deposit funds electronically to the Open Account. Any unexpended OneCard balance will be held until the student withdraws or graduates from The Citadel. �The Citadel Full athletic grant-in-aid and full academic scholarship recipients are not authorized to receive a refund. Balances in accounts of full athletic grant-in-aid recipients are refunded to the Athletic Department annually. Other Fees Reservation Deposit: A $300.00 reservation deposit is required of all newly accepted cadet applicants. This deposit assures class reservations and a barracks space and will be credited toward the cadet’s bill at registration. Diploma Fee: The diploma fee is adjusted each year to address the current market price. Transcript Fee: Information regarding transcripts is available on the Registrar’s Office web page: http://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar. Laboratory/Orientation Fees: Laboratory/Orientation Fees are charged students taking certain designated courses or orientation programs. Fees are billed as part of the preregistered course load. Technology Fee: A technology fee is charged each cadet. The fee partially offsets the cost of the various computer laboratories on campus and the costs associated with having computers in barracks rooms. Late Fee: A significant late fee is charged to all students who are permitted to enroll, even though they may not have satisfied all the financial requirements, i.e. those who have not finalized federal financial aid. Students who sign up for a payment plan and fail to meet the requirements of that plan will be charged the same late fee at the time they fall behind. Other Fees: In addition to the above, other fees that can be charged include: parking fees, infirmary charges, barracks damage, parking citations, yearbook, lost library books, library book late fees, rifle repair, and other fees directed by college officials. Refunds The Citadel is committed to many expenses based upon the anticipated enrollment of a student at the beginning of each semester. Registration at The Citadel is considered to be a contract binding students and their parents or guardians to charges for the entire semester. However, students who withdraw during a semester may receive partial refunds based on the length of attendance. Refunds will be computed from the required reporting date until the withdrawal date as determined by the Registrar. No refunds will be made for less than $1.00. In the event that a cadet receives a Medical Discharge, any refund due the cadet will follow the normal refund schedule policy as promulgated by the Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs. In the event that the Medical Discharge is a direct consequence of an injury received during The Citadel training program, the cadet may request an adjustment to this policy. The Campus Assessment Team (CAT) will make the final decision on all such requests. Authorized refunds are as follows: �87 The school is not subject to any State or Accrediting Agency refund policy. The refund schedule can be found on the Treasurer’s Office web page: http:// www.citadel.edu/root/treasurer. Deposits for Uniforms, Books, Supplies, and Accessories - OneCard Restricted Account: Any unused portion of the deposit to the student’s account for uniforms, books, supplies, and accessories will be refunded within 30 days of graduation or discharge. Financial Aid & Scholarships It is the mission of the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships to increase opportunities and access to monetary assistance by helping students and their families seek, obtain and make best use to all financial resources. Our primary purpose is to provide financial assistance to all students who, without such aid, would be unable to attend college. Through literacy and guidance, we support students with their transition to college and continue to make their academic aspirations attainable. While complying with all required regulations and guidelines we ensure equitable and consistent administration of over 70 million dollars annually from Federal, State, Institutional and Outside sources. Forms and Deadlines To apply for financial aid at The Citadel and to best demonstrate eligibility for need-based scholarships, all students should file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon as possible after October 1 of each year. These forms are available online at https://studentaid.gov. The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships may request additional information. Students are responsible for checking their e-mail account, online Citadel financial aid account, completing all requested paperwork, and submitting financial aid requirements in a timely manner. Funds are limited, so late applications are considered for aid only if resources are available. Priority deadline dates are as follows: Academic year (fall and spring) Fall only Spring only Summer February 28 February 28 October 15 April 15 Applicants who have not completed all financial aid paperwork by June 30 should not expect to receive notification of awards prior to the beginning of fall semester. These applicants should be prepared to pay for their tuition, fees, and other costs at the established fee payment deadlines. Students will be reimbursed if they are subsequently determined to be eligible for financial aid. �The Citadel Financial Aid and Scholarships Determining Financial Need The amount of financial aid is determined based on the FAFSA form the applicant files after October each year. This form solicits information about the applicant’s family’s current financial situation and produces an “expected family contribution” (EFC). Adjusted gross income data from tax forms is used along with current asset information to determine family resources. Allowances are made for federal and state taxes, social security, employment (when both parents work), unusual medical and dental expenses, and family size. Other factors considered are any unusual expenses and the number of family members in college. In its simplest definition, financial need is the difference between the cost to attend college and the expected family contribution, as determined by the need analysis. If costs exceed the amount of family contribution, then the applicant has “demonstrated” financial need. Dependent or Independent Status Federal student aid programs are based on the premise that parents have the primary responsibility of financing their dependent children’s education. However, independent students are not required to submit parental data. Students who fall into at least one of the following categories are automatically considered independent: a. 24 years old or older by December 31 of the award year, b. Master’s or doctorate student, c. Married, d. Have children and provide more than half of their support, e. Have legal dependents (other than a spouse), f. Dependent or ward of the court or were in foster care or both parents were deceased since turning age 13, g. On active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces for purposes other than training, h. Veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces, i. Homeless or at risk of being homeless, or j. Is/was an emancipated minor. Federal Eligibility Requirements Any student who is accepted for admission is eligible to request financial assistance. However, there are several general eligibility requirements a student must meet to receive federal financial aid: a. A student must be admitted to The Citadel as a regular or provisional student, b. A student must be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen, c. A student may not receive aid if he or she is in default on any federal student loan program with any institution, d. Generally, a student must be enrolled at least half-time. This is defined as 3 hours/semester for graduate students and 6 hours/semester for undergraduate students, e. A student may not receive aid if he or she owes a repayment on a Pell Grant, Supplemental Grant, or state Student Incentive Grant at any institution, f. A student must have the minimum grade point ratio and must make satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward a degree to continue to receive federal financial aid. �89 Types of Financial Aid Grants Federal Pell Grant The Federal Pell Grant program provides federal grants for eligible undergraduate students. Eligibility is determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) using a nationally mandated formula applied uniformly to all applicants. Students must demonstrate satisfactory progress toward a degree each year to receive a Pell Grant in the next academic term. The Citadel participates in the Department of Education’s Electronic Data Exchange (EDE) program, which provides the student and the institution with faster processing of applications. When a student completes the FAFSA, the eligibility for a Federal Pell Grant is determined by the processor, and an electronic Student Aid Report (SAR) is available for applicants who provide a valid e-mail address. At the same time, an electronic ISIR is generated to the school. If corrections need to be made on the application, the institution can send the corrections electronically and have the results within four business days. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) The SEOG program provides aid to students who qualify for Pell Grants and who show exceptional financial need. These grants range in value from $300 to $4,000 per academic year, with the average award being $1,000. South Carolina Need-Based Grant South Carolina Need-Based Grants are awarded to South Carolina residents, on a first-come basis, who demonstrate financial need. A student may receive up to $3,500 annually for full time status and up to $1,750 annually for part-time status. Visit the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education web site for eligibility requirements. Athletic Grants-in-Aid These grants are awarded to qualified students selected by members of the coaching staff. Additional information may be obtained by writing to the Director of Athletics. Work Programs The Federal Work-Study Program This federally funded program provides part-time employment to qualifying students. Students are paid on an hourly basis, not less than the federal minimum wage. Paychecks are issued twice a month directly to students for hours worked. The Human Resources Office makes assignments after a student has qualified for work-study. The Institutional Work Program This non-federally funded program makes a variety of student jobs available in academic and administrative offices on campus. A student does not need to demonstrate financial need. Inquiries and applications are made in the Human Resources office. �The Citadel Financial Aid and Scholarships Loans The Federal Direct Loan Program The Federal Direct Loan Program provides students with long-term, low interest subsidized and unsubsidized loans. The federal government pays the interest of the subsidized loan while the student is enrolled in school, whereas the interest accrues on the unsubsidized loan. The FAFSA contribution is taken into consideration when determining eligibility for any subsidized student loans. The maximum loan amount for a combination of subsidized and unsubsidized loans is $5,500 for a first year student; $6,500 for a second year student; and $7,500 for remaining years of study. During their academic careers, undergraduate dependent students may borrow up to a maximum of $31,000 (only $23,000 can be subsidized). Independent undergraduate students may borrow up to a maximum of $57,500 (only $23,000 can be subsidized). The interest rates are set each year. Please check current rates online at citadel.edu/finaid. Repayment begins six months after the student graduates or after enrollment drops below half-time status. The Federal Direct Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) Under the Federal Direct PLUS program, parents of dependent undergraduate students may borrow annually up to the difference between the student’s cost of attendance and the estimated amount of financial assistance for each dependent student. There is no aggregate maximum under this program. The interest rate is set each year. Please check current rates online at citadel.edu/finaid. Repayment begins 60 days after the final disbursement or can be deferred while the student is enrolled at least half-time. South Carolina Teacher Loan Program This South Carolina Teacher Loan Program is intended to attract and maintain the residency of talented teachers through the offer of student loan cancellation. Loan recipients who become certified to teach in critical need subject areas or who choose to teach in a designated school district will have their loans cancelled up to 100% at the rate of 20% for each full year of teaching. To qualify for this program, students must be South Carolina residents who attend college for the purpose of becoming a certified teacher. Employment must be in the state’s public school system in an area of critical need as defined by the State Board of Education. Loan recipients who fail to become certified or who do not teach in a critical need area must repay the entire amount of the loan plus interest. Funds are limited; the priority filing deadline is April 30. The Citadel Scholars Programs The Citadel's scholarship programs are designed to attract outstanding high school graduates to the college, reward undergraduate academic excellence, and help those worthy students who desire financial assistance to pay for their college education. Annually, The Citadel awards more than 3 million dollars in academic scholarships to entering freshmen and enrolled upperclassmen. The college offers a number of full academic scholarships covering catalog costs to incoming freshmen each year. �91 Prospective/Incoming Cadets Incoming freshmen cadets are automatically considered for the majority of the college’s merit scholarships. Consideration is based on the standard application for admission and provided high school credentials. Prospective cadets do not complete a separate scholarship application in most cases. Recipients of scholarships are notified by April 30th in most cases. There are three categories or tiers of scholarship that do require additional information. Candidates are identified by a wholistic review of their high school credentials and extracurricular activities. Candidates are contacted by the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships and invited to apply. This competitive process determines the recipients for the following scholarship awards: Full Academic Scholarships The Citadel Honors Program 1842 Scholars Program Full academic scholarships cover catalog costs (including tuition, room/board, quartermaster charges) and are the most prestigious of The Citadel’s awards to incoming freshmen based on academic merit. The Citadel Honors Program is the college’s premier program for intellectually and academically gifted students who demonstrate a love of learning and wish to participate in rich intellectual discourse over their four-year college career. Special benefits include small classes, discussion-style instruction and competing for national-level post-graduate scholarships or fellowships. The 1842 Scholars Program offers students the opportunity to engage with like-minded cadets through professional development, mentorship, study abroad programs, and more. The goal of the program is to identify and recruit highly motivated students, immerse them in a cohort community where they can explore their academic passions, provide them with opportunities to take intellectual risks, and develop them as thinkers and leaders. Awards Most incoming freshman scholarship recipients will be notified of their standing by April 30th. All scholarships must be applied for on an annual basis, except for full academic scholarships and scholarships for which the deeds of trust specify multi-year awards. External Scholarships Numerous corporations, employers, professional organizations, foundations, local civic organizations, churches, and high schools make scholarships available to Citadel cadets. Outside scholarship assistance has been a rapidly growing source of financial aid at The Citadel. Students should consult high school counselors, employers, civic leaders or public officials and use the local library to obtain information on educational foundations which offer scholarships. Palmetto Fellows, LIFE, and HOPE Scholarships are available to residents of South Carolina. Complete information concerning these state programs can be found on the website for the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education. �The Citadel Financial Aid and Scholarships ROTC Scholarships ROTC Scholarships provide significant financial assistance to Citadel students. The Army, Navy, or Air Force each has its own criteria and time tables for application and acceptance. SAT or ACT scores should be submitted to the respective service usually by December during the senior year of high school. Enrolled Citadel students can also apply for two- or three-year ROTC Army and Navy scholarships that cover all tuition costs and academic fees, but do not pay the room and board and book and supplies components of the bill. Air Force ROTC scholarships pay according to the type of contract awarded. Every ROTC scholarship student also receives a monthly stipend that could be used to offset the cost of books. Nearly 10% of the Corps of Cadets hold ROTC scholarships. Students interested in ROTC scholarships should contact the head of the appropriate Citadel ROTC unit for additional information and application assistance. Other Assistance Vocational Rehabilitation Scholarships: This program provides for education and training if the student has a physical or mental disability which is a substantial handicap to employment and if there exists reasonable expectation that vocational rehabilitation services may lead to gainful employment. Additional information is available through the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation in the student’s home state. Veterans Benefits: Veterans benefits are administered under the umbrella of the Veteran Student Success Center at The Citadel. Veterans benefits are intended to meet the needs of students receiving benefits under the following programs: • • • • • Ch. 30 - Montgomery GI Bill®—Active Duty, Veterans Ch. 31 – Veterans Readiness and Employment Ch. 35 – Survivors’ and Dependents’ Educational Assistance Program Ch. 33 – Post-9/11 G.I. Bill® Ch. 1606 - Montgomery GI Bill®—Selected Reserve Students who believe they have an entitlement should check with their local VA Office, the regional office in Columbia (1-800-827-1000), or the School Certifying Official at The Citadel. An applicant should contact the School Certifying Official at The Citadel well in advance of the anticipated matriculation date so that the necessary documents may be obtained in order to certify attendance with the VA. All students receiving VA Educational Benefits are required to complete an online request for VA Enrollment Certification. Any changes in a student’s course of study should be cleared with the School Certifying Official to ensure continuation of benefits. Any reduction in course load should be reported immediately to avoid overpayment. Transfer students are reminded that the office must have copies of all transcript evaluations made by the Registrar’s Office before certification can be made to the Veterans Benefits Administration for payment. �93 Pending Veteran Benefits Payment: In accordance with Title 38 US Code 3679(e), The Citadel adopts the following additional provisions for any students using U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Readiness and Employment (Ch. 31) benefits, Post-9/11 G.I. Bill® (Ch. 33), while payment to the institution is pending from VA. The Citadel will not: • • • • Prevent the student’s enrollment; Assess a late penalty fee to the student; Require the student to secure alternative or additional funding; Deny the student access to any resources (access to classes, libraries, or other institutional facilities) available to other students who have satisfied their tuition and fee bills to the institution. However, to qualify for this provision, such students may be required to: • Produce the VA Certificate of Eligibility (COE) by the first day of class; • Provide a written request to be certified; • Provide additional information needed to properly certify the enrollment as described in other institutional policies Satisfactory Academic Progress In compliance with regulations governing federal and/or state financial aid programs, The Citadel is required to monitor each student to be certain that he or she is maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in his or her course of study. SAP standards are separate from The Citadel’s academic policies and are reviewed annually at the end of each spring semester. How the Policy Works Students who fail to meet published SAP standards will be ineligible to receive federal or state financial aid funds. However, those students failing to meet the minimum standards, as prescribed in this policy, may appeal their status by following outlined conditions. Academic Year The academic year for SAP determination is comprised of the fall, spring, and summer terms. Minimum Standards Unsatisfactory academic progress is defined as a failure to meet any of the following standards: Undergraduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 12 hours/semester) must earn 24 credit hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 12 hours. b. Part-time students (enrolled in less than 12 hours/semester) must earn at least 66% of the credit hours attempted in an academic year. �The Citadel 2. 3. GPA - A student’s GPA must meet the required minimum for their grade level according to The Citadel’s academic policies for continuance. a. 1.3 with < 39 attempted hours b. 1.5 with 40-69 attempted hours c. 1.7 with 70-99 attempted hours d. 2.0 with > 99 attempted hours Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 207 hours (more than 150% of program length. Graduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 6 hours/semester) must earn 12 credit hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 6 hours. b. Part-time students (enrolled in less than 6 hours/semester) must earn at least 66% of the credit hours attempted in an academic year. 2. GPA - A student must earn at least a 3.0 grade point average. 3. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 150% of the student’s program length. SAP Appeal Students who have not met SAP have the opportunity to complete an appeal to regain eligibility for federal aid. Completion of this process does not guarantee reinstatement of federal financial aid. Students are responsible for full payment of tuition/fees regardless of financial aid status. It is also the student’s responsibility to be aware of and to meet all fee payment and financial aid deadlines. The SAP Appeal Packet is available on the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarship’s webpage at citadel.edu. The SAP Appeal must include: 1. A completed SAP Appeal Form and Academic Improvement Plan approved by the Student Success Center and signed by both the advisor and the student, and 2. A letter written by the student that defines why the student failed to make SAP and what has changed that enables the student to meet SAP at the next evaluation. If a student fails to either regain regular SAP eligibility after one semester or meet the conditions of the Academic Improvement Plan, the student is ineligible to receive federal financial aid (Title IV aid). Appeal Deadlines Completed appeal forms must be turned in two weeks before the end of the term for which the appeal is filed. �95 Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: “A” Superior “B” Very Good “C” Satisfactory; Acceptable “D” Marginal; Passing “F” Unsatisfactory “P” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that do not carry credit hours to designate passing performance. “S” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that carry credit hours to designate that a grade of “A”, “B” or “C” has been earned and credit has been awarded. “U” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses and in ENGL 101 to designate that a grade of “D” or “F” has been earned and no credit has been awarded. “W” Withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline. “I” An Incomplete is awarded when course requirements have been very nearly met but for authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. “IP” Grade assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed in the next full semester, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Students who are enrolled in audit courses will not receive financial aid for these courses. Students can access midterm progress and semester grade reports online by using BANNER Self-Service through the Lesesne Gateway portal. Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA/Grade Replacement The regulatory definition for full-time enrollment status (for undergraduates) has been revised to allow a student to retake (one time only per previously passed course) any previously passed course. For this purpose, passed means any grade higher than an “F”, regardless of any school or program policy requiring a higher qualitative grade or measure to have been considered to have passed the course. This retaken class may be counted towards a student’s enrollment status, and the student may be awarded Title IV aid for the enrollment status based on inclusion of the class. A student may be repeatedly paid for repeatedly failing the same course (normal SAP policy still applies to such cases), and if a student withdraws before completing the course that he or she is being paid Title IV funds for retaking, then that is not counted as his or her one allowed retake for that course. However, if a student passed a class once, then is repaid for retaking it, and fails the second time, that failure counts as their paid retake, and the student may not be paid for retaking the class a third time. �The Citadel Transfer Credits When evaluating SAP, a student’s transfer credits, accepted by The Citadel toward completion of the student’s degree program, will count as both credit hours attempted and hours earned. Change of Major Students who have changed majors and earn more than the maximum allowable number of credit hours toward graduation will be required to submit a SAP Appeal. Second Degrees Students who are completing a second degree will be required to submit a SAP Appeal to explain the reason behind earning more than 150% of allowable credit hours. Financial Aid Funds Covered by SAP Standards Federal Pell Grant Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) Federal Work Study Federal Direct Loan, subsidized and unsubsidized Federal Direct PLUS Loan South Carolina Teachers Loan South Carolina Palmetto Fellows Scholarship South Carolina LIFE Scholarship South Carolina Need-Based Grant Other federal/state programs as required Some Private Educational Loans (as required by the lender) Financial Aid Refund and Repayment Policy Refunds The Higher Education Act of 1998, Public Law 105-244, substantially changed the way funds paid toward a student’s education are managed should the student, as a recipient of federal financial aid, withdraw from school. If a student who was awarded financial aid withdraws from school, he/she is eligible for the “institutionally-determined-refund” that remains after the immediate repayment of the financial aid award to the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships (please see the Expenses Section of this catalog). This policy also applies to students on whose behalf a parent has borrowed a Title IV loan. Refunds are returned to the programs that awarded the student aid. In the case of federal funds, a statutory schedule is used to determine the amount of Federal Financial Aid that has been earned based on the period the student was in attendance. Up through the 60% point, in each payment period of enrollment, a pro rata schedule is used to determine how much Federal Financial Aid the student will receive. After the 60% point in the payment period of enrollment, a student has earned 100% of the federal funds awarded for the period. �97 The percentage earned will be calculated based on the following schedule: Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Week 6 6 percent 12 percent 18 percent 25 percent 31 percent 37 percent Week 7 Week 8 Week 9 Week 10 Week 11-16 43 percent 50 percent 56 percent 60 percent 100 percent For example, if a student has received $1,000 in Federal Financial Aid and withdraws within the first week of classes, that student will receive 6 percent ($60) of the aid award applied to total charges. The remaining $940 will be returned to the Federal Financial Aid programs in the following order: • • • • • • Unsubsidized Student Loans Subsidized Student Loans PLUS Loans Federal Pell Grants Federal SEOG Grants Other Assistance under Title IV The refund and repayment provisions mandated by the Federal government for Federal Aid Recipients apply when a student receives financial aid funds and withdraws, drops out, takes an unapproved leave of absence, fails to return from an approved leave of absence, is expelled, or otherwise fails to complete the period of enrollment for which he or she was charged. The refund and repayment requirements DO NOT APPLY to a student who: • Withdraws, drops out, or is expelled before his or her first day of class, or • Withdraws from some classes, but continues to be enrolled in other classes, or • Does not receive funds for the period in question. (Students whose parents received a PLUS Loan are considered to have received funds and fall under the stated refund and repayment requirements.) Repayments If a student’s non-instructional educational expenses (allowances as prescribed below) incurred up to the time of withdrawal exceed the amount of cash disbursement, the student does not owe a repayment. If cash disbursed exceeds the noninstructional costs of education incurred up to the time of withdrawal, the student does owe a repayment. This repayment is the difference between costs incurred and the actual cash refund received. Non-instructional expenses are determined by calculating the percentage of room, board, books, supplies, travel, and personal expenses incurred during the portion of the term a student is enrolled. Off-campus �The Citadel board and personal expenses are prorated on a weekly basis. There is no proration of on-campus room charges. A percentage of books, supplies, and travel costs is allowed based on length of enrollment. Student aid accounts to be refunded and repaid Once the amounts to be refunded and/or repaid are determined, the aid programs from which the student received funds will be reimbursed in the following order: • Federal Direct/Stafford loans • Federal PLUS loans received on behalf of the student • Federal Pell Grants • Federal SEOG Grants • Other Title IV programs • Federal, state, private, or institutional student financial assistance received by the student for which refunds are required • The student �99 Department of Intercollegiate Athletics The mission of the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics at The Citadel is to develop, maintain, and continue to improve a well-rounded program of athletics geared to the aims and objectives of The Citadel, the Southern Conference, and the National Collegiate Athletic Association. In order to carry out this mission, all athletics personnel must be familiar with the athletics policy as approved by the Board of Visitors and the President of The Citadel: The Citadel policy on intercollegiate athletics includes a balanced program covering a broad spectrum of sports for men and women. The College will support this program to enable its representatives to be competitive in every respect. The Citadel will compete as a Division I institution under current NCAA and Southern Conference regulations. The athletics program will be conducted within the aims, standards and objectives of The Citadel as a comprehensive military college providing a quality education. The Department of Athletics is committed to gender and minority equity in all of its programs. In addition, for the safety and welfare of student-athletes, The Citadel maintains full-time certified trainers, a college surgeon, and special orthopedic doctors to provide medical support services. The Citadel is a member of the NCAA with Football Championship Subdivision classification and Division I classification in all other sports. In addition, the college is a member of the Southern Conference, which is comprised of The Citadel, East Tennessee State University, Furman University, Mercer University, UNC-Greensboro, Samford University, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, Virginia Military Institute, Western Carolina University, and Wofford College. In compliance with the NCAA regulations related to campus sexual violence response, The Citadel has adopted Memorandum 2-029: Annual Disclosure Requirements For Compliance With The NCAA Board of Governors Policy on Campus Sexual Violence. This policy outlines the disclosures required of all incoming, continuing and transfer student athletes. The policy can be viewed at: https://www.citadel.edu/root/images/policies/disclosure-requirements-forcompliance-with-ncaa-board-of-governors.pdf The Sports Program The Citadel Department of Intercollegiate Athletics sponsors 16 varsity teams including football, basketball, cross country, wrestling, indoor and outdoor track, baseball, rifle, and tennis for men; and golf, soccer, volleyball, rifle, cross country, and indoor and outdoor track for women. Each year, nearly 400 cadets participate as players, managers, or student trainers. The Citadel’s intercollegiate teams are led by qualified coaches who are concerned with the overall development of the cadet-athlete. The graduation rate of Citadel athletes always ranks among the best of the Southern Conference. �The Citadel Facilities Athletic facilities at The Citadel are among the finest in the Southern Conference. Home football games are played in historic Johnson Hagood Stadium, a 11,000-seat facility built in 1948. The Bulldogs celebrated the re-opening of the West Stands at Johnson Hagood Stadium for the 2006 season, and in 2008, the West Side Tower opened its doors to The Citadel Family. The completed project features luxury suites, club seats, a state-of-the-art press box and all the expected amenities of a modern-day facility. The field was named Sansom Field in 2008, commemorating the loyalty and generosity of distinguished and active alumnus, William B. Sansom, ‘64. In the fall of 2001, the Altman Athletic Center opened. Located in the south end zone, the Center houses home and visitors’ locker rooms, officials’ rooms, and an entertainment area for The Citadel Brigadier Foundation. In the summer of 2020, the field was replaced with state of the art artificial turf due to the generosity of William B. Sansom, '64. McAlister Field House, which houses the Athletic Department staff and several coaches’ offices, was built in 1939 and renovated in 1989, and a new floor was installed in 2016 due to the generosity of Jimmy and Mary Reed. Seating over 5,000 for Bulldog basketball games, McAlister Field House also serves as home of the volleyball and wrestling teams as well as the site for graduations, concerts and a variety of other events. Additional locker rooms have also been added to the Field House. In the summer of 2011, due in large part to private donations, The Citadel basketball program completed an overhaul of the basketball locker room. The main section of seat back stands has been renovated in the summer of 2020 due to the financial collaboration of the institution and athletic department. Next to McAlister Field House is Vandiver Hall which opened in 1991 and provides the Bulldog soccer, baseball, wrestling, golf, volleyball, cross-country and track and field teams with a modern and well-equipped facility. Dressing and locker rooms, a golf driving range, a wrestling room, and a baseball batting tunnel are a few of the features of Vandiver Hall. Seignious Hall, which is located directly behind Vandiver Hall, houses the football coaches’ offices and the football locker room. Also located in this facility are a spacious weight room, equipment room, and training room. The Donald C. Bunch Courts at the Earle Tennis Center, which has often served as the site of the Southern Conference Men’s and Women’s Championships, receive a significant amount of play year-round. The women’s soccer team utilizes WLI Field along the Ashley River while the track and field teams use a track surrounding a multi-purpose turf field which was upgraded in 2018. The track was also resurfaced in 2018 due to a collaborative effort of donors and the institution to provide a five lane rubberized surface. In April 1997, The Citadel’s baseball team moved into the new, state-of-the-art Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park, located on the banks of the Ashley River. The 6,000seat park, which has hosted the Southern Conference Baseball Championship on several occasions, features the Bulldog locker room, luxury suites, an indoor batting tunnel and a state-of-the-art video board. The Citadel utilizes nearby College Park as a practice site during the year. The indoor rifle range, Inouye Markmanship Center, opened in the fall of 2005. Located behind WLI Field along the Ashley River, this facility allows for general firearms training for the entire Corps of Cadets, enhanced ROTC firearms training, and increased opportunities for Rifle and Pistol Team practices. �101 The Citadel Honors Program The Citadel Honors Program provides exceptional learning experiences for outstanding students whose aptitudes and interests indicate that they will take full advantage of the strong student-teacher relationship and inquiry-based learning that the Honors Program experience offers. Honors courses will augment the current curriculum of The Citadel by offering selected students an alternate means of education grounded in the methods of discourse and interdisciplinary intellectual inquiry. Honors students will apply their drive to excel to become leaders in not only the classroom but also the Corps and the community. The Honors Program encourages students to intermingle their academic focus with a positive impact in student clubs, athletics, volunteer efforts, ROTC units, the Corps of Cadets, and The Citadel community as a whole. The Honors Program is an autonomous program of The Citadel, with an Honors Director serving as the head of the program. The Director is responsible for recruiting and admitting Honors students, reviewing courses which are proposed to meet Honors requirements and selecting those which will be included in Program offerings, critiquing Honors courses and the performance of the faculty leading them, establishing and enforcing entrance and exit requirements, serving as the Honors Advisor for all Honors students, establishing and monitoring the operating budget for the Honors Program, and coordinating the Honors Program requirements with those of the academic majors. The Honors Council is comprised of select members of the faculty who have taught the previous semester. The Honors Council will advise and assist the Honors Director in the governance of the program. The Honors Students’ Association is comprised of academically proficient participants or past participants in the Honors Program. Its purpose is to promote closer association among participants in the Honors Program, to provide a student forum for discussion of the Honors Program and its operation, and to assist the Honors Council. Honors Learning Objectives The Honors Program enhances The Citadel experience through a rigorous, student-driven, interactive, multidisciplinary approach to academic and experiential learning. The Honors Program has adopted five learning outcomes that are met through self-directed and active learning and immersive engagement in their selected discipline, professional field, and The Citadel experience. • Honors students will achieve cross-discipline intellectual agility illustrated through the ability to analyze and synthesize a broad range of material. • Honors students will cultivate self-directed learning practices that promote life-long curiosity and continual personal and professional growth. • Honors students will become more independent and critical thinkers, demonstrating the ability to use knowledge and logic when discussing an issue or an idea, while considering the consequences of their ideas, for themselves, for others, and for society. • Honors students will build intergenerational, multidisciplinary networks and connections to community to enhance their academic, leadership, and personal development. • Honors students will develop and implement effective written and oral communication skills. �The Citadel Admission and Retention In addition to securing for admission to The Citadel, interested students must apply separately for admission to the Honors Program. Formal essays, recommendation letters, and personal interviews at minimum are required as part of the application process. The Honors Director will evaluate all applications and select participants based upon the strength of the student’s application, evaluating previous academic performance, class rank, personal interview, essay responses, recommendation letters, extracurricular activities, leadership potential, and intellectual and academic promise. Applications information can be found on The Citadel website. Selections will be made on a rolling basis; early applications are strongly encouraged. Interested high school students should apply early during their senior year, no later than October 1 in order to be fully considered for selection and all scholarships, and no later than February 1. There is no application fee. Current cadets with strong academic and cadet performance at The Citadel may apply for admission to the Honors Program. Interested cadets should contact the Honors Program Director to express interest and complete an application which includes a formal essay, one letter of recommendation from a Citadel faculty member, and an interview. With the Director's permission, academically-strong students may be admitted to individual Honors courses on a space-available basis; in such cases, the Honors courses will meet General Education or elective requirements as appropriate. Students in the Honors Program must maintain a minimum 3.00 GPA in their Honors courses, a minimum 3.00 overall GPA, and exhibit conduct that reflects positively upon The Citadel and fellow Honors Program students. The Honors Council will review the record of any Honors student whose academic performance or cadet conduct do not meet requirements and will take appropriate action, including establishment of a probationary period or separation from the Honors Program. Any academic requirements pertaining to scholarship retention, regardless of Honors Council actions, will be dictated by the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships. Honors Program Curriculum The Honors Program is designed to provide an exceptionally broad background of cultural knowledge and learning skills that students can then apply to their chosen areas of academic specialization. Most of the Honors Program curriculum will come in courses designed to be taken in lieu of General Education requirements. Honors Program students will satisfy their General Education Strand requirements by completing Strands courses designated as Honors. The Honors General Education courses will not follow a single strand but will be offered across all Strands. The emphasis in Honors courses will not primarily be acceleration but enrichment. The courses will go into extra depth, examining more closely the significance and implications of the material studied or presenting that material in a broader cultural context. In general, it is expected that Honors courses will employ research and discussion in order to establish habits of rigorous inquiry and intellectual independence. Additionally, Honors course will introduce opportunities for examining and communicating the external, multidisciplinary causes and impacts of a topic. �103 The motivation behind the Honors curriculum is to create an environment of learning in which the students’ independent intellectual habits are further developed. The patterns and processes of intellectual and scholarly inquiry will be taught, not merely the results of other people’s having conducted that inquiry. Many Honors course will have a tutorial component; students will meet individually or in small groups with their instructors to discuss and develop ongoing writing, research, and laboratory projects. An additional key component of the Honors Program experience is the Personal and Professional Development tutorials. Each year, the Honors Director meets with every sophomore, junior, and senior in the program once a month to engage in a program of research, writing, discussion, and strategizing about the student’s post-baccalaureate goals, focusing on graduate school and career goals. Curricular Requirements There are two levels of Honors Program completion. The top level, referred to as the Gold Seal level, requires the completion of eight Honors Program courses. The alternate level, referred to as the Certificate level, requires the completion of five Honors Program courses. The Certificate level is particularly designed for those who are admitted to the Honors Program after their first semester at The Citadel. Furthermore, all Honors Program students, at both the Gold Seal and Certificate level, will be required to complete the entire, six semester Personal and Professional Development series. Honors Program Gold Seal: Eight (8) Honors courses plus Personal and Professional Development tutorial series (6-semesters) ALL MAJORS: Honors Freshman Seminar: Honors FSEM 101 Honors Freshman Writing Intensive: Honors FSWI 101 Honors Strands English: Honors ENGS 30x Honors Strands History: Honors HISS 30x Honors Strands Social Science: Honors SCSS 30x Honors Junior Leadership: LDRS 371 (designated Honors sections) Honors Personal & Professional Development (HONR 211, 212, 311, 312, 411, 412) PLUS For majors requiring Calculus Honors Mathematics I: HONR 131 Honors Mathematics II: HONR 132 OR For majors that do not require Calculus Honors Strand Elective: Honors ELES 30x One (1) additional Honors course selected from available Honors ELES, ENGS, HISS, NTSS, or SCSS 30x; HONR 131 or 132; Honors Independent Research I/II HONR 400/401) �The Citadel Honors Program Certificate: Five (5) total Honors courses plus Personal and Professional Development tutorial series (6-semester) Five (5) total Honors classes (selected from available Honors ELES, ENGS, HISS, NTSS, or SCSS 30x; HONR 131 or 132; Honors LDRS 371; Honors Independent Research I/II HONR 400/401) Honors Personal and Professional Development tutorials (HONR 211, 212, 311, 312, 411, 412) Honors Program Recognition Students who complete the Honors Program Gold Seal requirements will be recognized as Honors Program graduates in The Citadel commencement ceremony and will receive an Honors Program certificate plus an Honors Seal on their Citadel diploma. A notation will be added to their official college transcript to indicate they have completed the Gold Seal requirements of the Honors Program. Students who complete the Honors Program Certificate requirements will be recognized as Honors Program graduates in The Citadel commencement ceremony and will receive an Honors Program certificate. A notation will be added to their official college transcript to indicate that they have fulfilled the Certificate requirements of the Honors Program. Unlike Honors Program Gold Seal students, they will not receive an Honors Seal on their diplomas. Honors Courses Honors First-Year Academic Seminar Students enrolled in the Honors Program may meet The Citadel’s General Education requirements for freshmen by successfully completing these two courses. Students who join the Honors Program after the first semester may satisfy The Citadel’s requirement by completing the non-Honors sections of the freshman seminar and linked writing intensive courses. Honors FSEM 101 Honors Freshman Seminar Three Credit Hours This seminar will focus by engagement with big questions, both contemporary and enduring. Each seminar will have its own unique theme, addressing the main learning outcomes. This course will pair with the freshman writing intensive topic. Honors FSWI 101 Honors Freshman Writing Intensive Three Credit Hours This course will pair with the freshman seminar topic, focusing on relevant literature and techniques of composition as the students engage the topic in writing. Honors Math Honors Program students whose majors require two semesters of Calculus will complete these Honors Math classes in lieu of MATH 131/132. HONR131/132 Honors Mathematics I/ II Three Credit Hours This sequence will teach calculus within the context of its development from the civilization which produced it and its impact on civilization since. Topics covered will closely match those in MATH 131/132 but will include an additional emphasis on implications, applications, and depth of understanding. �105 Prerequisite for HONR 131: B or higher in MATH 119; 3 or higher on the AP Calculus exam; by placing in through The Citadel’s Mathematics Placement Exam; by transfer credit for MATH 131 from another college; or by permission of the Chair of the Department of Mathematical Sciences. Prerequisite for HONR 132: C or higher in HONR 131; B or higher in MATH 131. Students enrolled in the Honors Program may meet the General Education requirement in mathematics by successfully completing HONR 131/132 in lieu of all other two-semester Math sequences required by their major, including MATH 131/32 and MATH 106/107. Students who successfully complete the first semester of Honors Mathematics and then cease to participate in the Honors Program can fulfill the General Education requirement in mathematics for their major, if required, by completing approved classes including MATH 106, MATH 107, STAT 160, or MATH 132. Honors Strands Courses Honors Strands courses will develop students’ skills, confidence, and independence in six essential areas: quantitative literacy, written communication, critical thinking, inquiry and analysis, intercultural knowledge and competence, and ethical reasoning and action. Honors Strands classes will also have a strong multidisciplinary component and require significant independent thought and contribution to classroom discourse. Honors Program students will not select a single strand theme but will instead be offered courses from each of the strands. These classes will strengthen student's multidisciplinary knowledgebase and encourage a deeper understanding of multiple relevant world themes. Honors Strands classes will be offered every semester. These courses will satisfy the General Education Strands English (ENGS 30x), History (HISS 30x), Social Science (SCSS 30x), and Elective (ELES 30x) requirements. (The x in 30x will be based on the course's relevant strand theme.) Individual degree plans differ, but, as a rule, students will begin taking these Honors Strands classes in the first semester of their second year and will complete them in senior year. Honors ENGS 30x: Honors Strands English Three Credit Hours Honors HISS 30x: Honors Strands History Three Credit Hours Honors SCSS 30x: Honors Strands Social Science Three Credit Hours Honors ELES 30x: Honors Strands Elective Three Credit Hours Honors Leadership Honors LDRS 371 Honors Junior Leadership Seminar Three Credit Hours This course considers various theories of leadership and their role in critical organizational issues. Using case studies and experiential components, this section of LDRS 371 is specifically designed to engage Honors Program and select other students in hands-on learning and practice opportunities. Honors Research The Honors Program curriculum does not have a research or thesis requirement as most students will be engaged in rigorous research as part of a capstone course within their major. However, Honors students are encouraged to engage in independent research either in preparation for or in addition to this capstone work. �The Citadel HONR 400/401 Honors Directed Research I/II Three Credit Hours Students conduct research under the direction of faculty members. The research need not be original with the student but may be part of a project which the faculty member is currently conducting or has conducted in the past. Before registering for an Honors Research course, students will work with the Honors Director and the supervising faculty to develop appropriate scope and research deliverables. An extra-departmental second reader or evaluator will be required for all projects. Students may complete multiple research courses, either continuing a single project over multiple semesters or researching multiple unrelated topic. HONR 401 designates a project as a continuation of a previous HONR 400 course. Honors Research may be counted as an Honors Strands Elective (ELES 30x.) Honors Personal and Professional Development Tutorial Series HONR 211/212/ Honors Personal and Professional Three Credit Hours 311/312/411/412 Development Ia/Ib, IIa/IIb, IIIa/IIIb (Pass/Fail) Taught entirely in tutorial, this sequence directs students in a three-year program of research, writing, and discussion on the subject of their professional goals, encouraging them to envision their leadership in their future profession and guiding them in exploring through research and writing the ideals as well as the practices of that profession. During these tutorials, students will work on preparation for job interviews (e.g., refining their resumes and developing strong interview skills), for post-baccalaureate schooling (e.g., refining personal statements and other vital application materials), and for post-baccalaureate prestigious scholarships (e.g., developing a plan for creating the experiences, connections, and written materials required). One credit hour (Pass/Fail) will be granted upon the completion of both 211 and 212. An additional one credit hour (Pass/Fail) will be granted upon the completion of both 311 and 312. A final one credit hour (Pass/Fail) will be granted upon the completion of both 411 and 412. This entire six-semester series must be completed to fulfill the Gold Seal and Certificate requirements of the Honors Program. �107 The Undergraduate Curriculum All of the degrees in The Citadel’s undergraduate day program have two basic curricular components—the major curriculum and the General Education curriculum. Students enrolled in the South Carolina Corps of Cadets have additional curricular requirements including classes in Leadership, Physical Education, and ROTC. The Major Curriculum The curriculum of each major consists of carefully selected required courses. These required classes are generally offered in the home department of the major, but a major may also have specific non-departmental class requirements. So, for example, a student majoring in Physics takes not only required Physics classes but several required Mathematics classes, as well. The curriculum of each degree program may also contain elective classes. Electives fall into two basic categories, approved or general. • • Approved electives are chosen by students from a list of courses determined by the individual degree program. Approved electives fulfill major requirements and may be either departmental or non-departmental. General elective classes fulfill degree requirements, but they do not otherwise count for major or General Education requirements. General elective hours may be applied towards academic minors. Major work is offered in the following areas: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Accounting Biochemistry Biology Chemistry Civil & Environmental Engineering Computer Engineering Computer Science Construction Engineering Criminal Justice Cyber Operations Electrical Engineering English Exercise Science Finance History Intelligence & Security Studies Management Marketing and Business Development Mathematics Mechanical Engineering �The Citadel • • • • • • • • • • Modern Languages, Literatures, & Cultures in French, German, or Spanish Modern Languages with Teaching Specialization in French, German, or Spanish Nursing Physics Physical Education Political Science Psychology Secondary Education in Biology, Chemistry, ir Social Studies Sport Management Supply Chain Management For detailed courses of study for each major, please refer to the appropriate department or school’s section of the catalog. The General Education Curriculum With the 2019-20 academic year, The Citadel began a new General Education program, replacing the Core Curriculum that had been in effect for more than fifty years. The new strands-model General Education described here is required for all students matriculating in the day program since the fall of 2019. The old Core Curriculum, described in earlier catalogs, remains in effect for students who matriculated prior to 2019. The Citadel’s new General Education program has two related purposes: 1. Promoting our students’ intellectual development by affording them coursework in the fundamental academic disciplines of mathematics, natural science, literature, history, and social science; and 2. Developing our students’ skills and dispositions in six essential areas: quantitative literacy, written communication, critical thinking, inquiry and analysis, intercultural knowledge and competence, and ethical reasoning and action. Students begin the General Education program in their first year and continue to take General Education classes throughout their college careers. The Curriculum has been designed to offer both progressively challenging standards and a significant amount of choice. The General Education program has been developed so that, upon successfully completing the curriculum, graduates ought to be able 1. To use quantitative reasoning skills to make calculations, interpret data, communicate results, and evaluate an issue or solve a problem; 2. To communicate ideas in a logical sequence, demonstrating control of syntax and mechanics and the ability to integrate credible and reliable sources; 3. To analyze complex issues that have varying positions and assumptions using information from credible sources, and to state positions, create new positions, and acknowledge other positions including implications and consequences; 4. To demonstrate skill in inquiry and analysis, including using a design process, synthesizing information from relevant sources, drawing conclusions, and recognizing implications and limitations; �109 5. 6. To demonstrate insight into their own cultural rules and biases, to have accurate understandings of other cultural world views, and to display attitudes of curiosity, openness, and empathy; To recognize ethical issues when presented in a complex, multilayered (grey) context, to analyze cross-relationships among the issues, and to evaluate ethical perspectives and concepts, including his or her own. The components of the General Education program are as follows: First-Year Mathematics Every first-year student will enroll in at least one mathematics class. The specific class will vary depending on the student’s degree program. The classes that fulfill this requirement are the following: • • • • • • • MATH 104 MATH 105 MATH 106 MATH 118 MATH 119 MATH 131 STAT 160 First-Year Science Every first-year student will enroll in at least one science class. This class will be a four-credit unit, three credits for the lecture and one for the lab. The classes will vary depending on the student’s degree program. The classes that fulfil this requirement are the following: For non-STEM majors: • ASTR 105/155 • ASTR 106/156 • BIOL 105/115 • CHEM 105/115 • CHEM 106/116 For STEM majors: • BIOL 101/111 • BIOL 130/131 • BIOL 150/151 • CHEM 140/141 • CHEM 151/161 • CHEM 153/163 • PHYS 221/271 �The Citadel First-Year Academic Seminar The Freshman Seminar is a six-credit unit composed of two three-credit classes taken concurrently—FSEM 101 and the thematically-linked writing intensive FSWI 101. Every first-year student will enroll in this six-credit unit. The individual seminars, all of which focus on important questions or problems, introduce students to the demands of academic work. Student assignments in the seminars are tied to the six essential General Education outcomes (quantitative literacy, written communication, critical thinking, inquiry and analysis, intercultural knowledge, and ethical reasoning). Seminar students begin to do signature work, “synthesizing, analyzing, and applying cumulative knowledge and skills through problem- or inquiry-based assignments or projects.” Here are the course descriptions of the two three-credit components of the Freshman Seminar: FSEM 101 Freshman Seminar Three Credit Hours Corerequisite: FSWI 101 In FSEM 101 the student will be challenged to complete assignments that are tied to the learning outcomes of The Citadel's General Education program. The individual sections of the seminar are designed to appeal to a wide range of student interests, but all are focused on important questions that call for mature study and reflection. Each individual seminar is linked with a thematically-related Writing Intensive class (FSWI 101). FSWI 101 Freshman Seminar (Writing Intensive) Three Credit Hours Corequisite: FSEM 101 The Writing Intensive half of the six-credit hour Freshman Seminar develops a student's skills in academic writing. Starting with brief compositions and progressing to a full-length research paper, students work on key writing challenges such as organizing ideas, developing content, and presenting evidence. Each individual Writing Intensive class is linked with a thematically-related section of FSEM 101. GEND 422 General Education Capstone Three Credit Hours The General Education Capstone (GEND 422) will provide students an opportunity to demonstrate their ability to synthesize subject matter from previous classes while exhibiting the six key learning outcomes that have been developed through the general education curriculum. Students will participate in one or more highimpact practices (ex. research project, seminar discussions, shadowing, internship or literature review) and produce an original work that showcases their mastery of inquiry & analysis, written communication, and critical thinking. This is an interdisciplinary course where students from different majors can interact with each other while developing a holistic perspective on their chosen topic. This class may count toward one semester of ROTC fulfillment. Physical Fitness, Resiliency, and Wellness In keeping with The Citadel’s traditional commitment to developing the whole person, RPED 260: Physical Fitness, Resiliency, and Wellness is a required General Education class to be taken either in the first or second year. �111 Professional Communication All students hone their skills in written communication by enrolling in a class that prepares them for the kinds of writing they will need to do in their careers. The classes will vary depending on the student’s degree program. The classes that fulfil this requirement are the following, unless the student's major requires an alternative be taken: • • COMM 216 COMM 260 Modern Languages All students are required to demonstrate some competence in a modern foreign language (except for those pursuing degrees in the School of Engineering, the School of Education, and the Department of Nursing). Most students will enroll in two three-credit classes of language instruction according to the following guidelines. • Students who choose to study a different foreign language than the one they studied in high school must pass both semesters of the elementary level of the new language (101 & 102). • Students who choose to study the same language that they studied in high school will take a placement test. There are three possible results of this test: 1. Students who demonstrate proficiency in the language will be exempted from the two-class elementary language requirement (102-level) but will be required to take two upper-level language classes instead. 2. Students who place into the elementary level of the language will be required to take 102 and 201. 3. Students who place into the intermediate level of the language will be required to take 201 and 202. Ultimately, students who place into a level may choose to enroll in course at a lower-level; however, the lower level course will count as an elective and not towards their language requirements. These students must still complete the appropriate two three-credit hour classes for their placement level. Students who wish to enroll in Chinese must contact the Chinese section chief. For a student whose native language is not English, the language requirement at The Citadel is automatically waived, and the student is allowed to substitute general electives for the waived language courses. Strands Classes The strands classes are the heart of The Citadel's new General Education program. At the end of their first year, all day program students choose to concentrate on one of the following five themes (with associated course prefix in parentheses): • Technology & Innovation • Conflict & Resolution • Citizenship • Wellness • Nature & Sustainability The students then enroll in a series, or strand, of classes, all organized according to �The Citadel the theme they have chosen. In following the same theme through different classes, students should be able to attain a deep understanding of their strand’s topic. The work that they do for these classes ought to reflect this deepening of understanding as they progress through the strand. Moreover, the students’ progression through the strands classes ought to promote their grasp of the General Education learning outcomes. Strands classes will be offered every semester. Individual degree plans differ, but, as a rule, students will begin taking these strand classes in the first semester of their second year and will complete them in senior year. The classes may be special topics classes designed to address the strand theme, or they may be existing classes adapted for the theme. Each thematic strand contains classes in English, History, Natural Science, and Social Science. Most students will take all four of these strand classes. Students pursuing degrees in the School of Engineering and certain other STEM fields will take English Strand, History Strand, and Social Science Strand but will substitute a lab Science class determined by their major for the Natural Science Strand. Here are the generic course descriptions for these four strand courses. Note that the final digit of the course number (given in the generic description as X) will refer to the specific strand itself. So strand classes numbered 301 will be in the Technology & Innovation strand; 302 will be Conflict; 303, Citizenship; 304, Wellness; and 305, Nature & Sustainability. ENGS 30X English Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant works of literature reflective of the specific theme of the strand. HISS 30X History Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant periods or problems in History tied to the specific theme of the strand. NTSS 30X Natural Science Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant topics or problems in the Natural Sciences tied to the specific theme of the strand. Topics to be addressed will be drawn from the academic disciplines of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. SCSS 30X Social Science Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant topics or problems in the Social Sciences tied to the specific theme of the strand. Topics to be addressed will be drawn from the academic disciplines of Anthropology, Criminal Justice, Economics, Education, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology. �113 To go with the classes in English, History, Natural Science, and Social Science, every strand also has a requirement for an elective. Some degree programs have chosen to require LDRS 202: Principled Leadership in American Government and Society to satisfy the strand elective. Students in degree programs not using LDRS 202 as the strand elective have two ways to fulfill the elective requirement. They may take an Elective Strand class, or they may enroll in an additional ENGS, HISS, NTSS, or SCSS class from their strand. Here is the generic course description for the Elective Strand class: ELES 30X Elective Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant topics or problems tied to the specific theme of the strand. Topics to be addressed will be drawn from any academic discipline other than English, History, or the disciplines associated with the Natural and Social Science strand classes. America’s Constitutional Heritage The Citadel has created a new three-credit class, LDRS 202: Principled Leadership in American Government and Society, which will be required as part of General Education starting in the fall of 2021. This new class will “provide instruction in the essentials of the United States Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, the Emancipation Proclamation, the Federalist Papers, and the study of American institutions and history, including African-American history, and ideals.” This class meets the criteria established by South Carolina law. Depending on the degree program, this class will replace either a general elective or the required strand elective. The Third-Year Leadership Seminar The new Junior Leadership Seminar will be offered as part of General Education beginning in the fall of 2021. The student signature work assignments in the seminar will deal with leadership issues and will be assessed according to the students’ performance on the essential General Education outcomes (quantitative literacy, written communication, critical thinking, inquiry and analysis, intercultural knowledge, and ethical reasoning). Senior Capstone Class Before graduating, every student in the undergraduate day program must successfully complete a capstone class in which essential General Education outcomes are assessed by means of a signature work project. The capstone class will in many cases be part of the student’s major curriculum. The following courses will fulfill the General Education capstone requirement: BIOL 430, CHEM 420, CIVL 433, CONE 482, CSCI 495, CSCI 499, EDUC 499, ELEC 422, ENGL 402, ENGL 403, EXSC 406, GEND 422, HIST 443, HIST 444, HIST 445, HIST 446, INTL 403, MATH 495, MECH 482, MGMT 449, NURS 404, PHED 499, PHYS 420, PHYS 421, PSCI 393, PSYC 410 and SMGT 499. �The Citadel Additional Curricular Requirements for the Corps of Cadets Students in the South Carolina Corps of Cadets must successfully complete additional coursework in Leadership, Physical Education, and ROTC. These additional courses are graduation requirements. Required Physical Education Every cadet must complete at least two 100-level RPED activity classes. Leadership Cadets must successfully complete the following courses during their cadet careers: • Leadership 101: The First-Year Experience (1 Credit Hour) LDRS 101 provides academic and life skills to help students make a successful transition to college as well as to the unique environment of The Citadel. Students will develop their academic skills (reading, listening, note taking, test taking, time management, research, etc.) and will be introduced to campus facilities, resources, and support services. Some attention will also be given to lifestyle and relationship issues. A student must have the approval of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs to withdraw from LDRS 101. • Leadership 211: Sophomore Seminar Service Learning Lab (0 Credit Hour) The Sophomore Service Learning Lab provides cadets with a hands-on learning experience in the community. Students will select an approved service learning option to complete a minimum of ten hours of service. Students will select service sites based on their interests and availability. Service hours must be documented in GivePulse and verified by the Krause Center Service Learning & Civic Engagement (SLCE) team. This pass/fail course is offered in the fall semester, spring semester, or with professor approval in the summer. Students studying abroad may be able to complete this course while abroad, depending on location. Please contact the SLCE team or Office of Study Abroad to determine eligibility. • Leadership 311: Junior Ethics Enrichment Experience (JEEE) (0 Credit Hour) The Junior Ethics Enrichment Seminar is a one-day experiential seminar that develops ethical decision-making skills. Students learn how to resolve complex ethical challenges and discuss the importance of character in becoming ethical leaders. Generally, this seminar will be completed on Leadership Day during the fall semester. Students who are unable to attend LDRS 311 on Leadership Day must take the course during the spring semester. Completion of the Junior Ethics Enrichment Seminar is a graduation re¬quirement. �Undergraduate Curriculum • 115 Leadership 411: Senior Leadership Integration Seminar (0 Credit Hour) LDRS 411 is a full-day professional development seminar that allows cadets to examine their personal values and the leadership lessons learned at The Citadel in the context of their future career goals. Students engage with business, government, and community partners to connect classroom learning with the professional world. Generally, this seminar will be completed on Leadership Day during the fall semester. Students who are unable to attend LDRS 411 on Leadership Day must take the course during the spring semester. Completion of the Senior Leadership Integration Seminar is a graduation requirement. ROTC All cadets must satisfy an ROTC requirement for every semester during which they are enrolled at The Citadel or until they have completed eight semesters or met graduation requirements. All freshman and sophomore cadets (i.e., those classified 4A, 4B, 3A, 3B) must successfully complete a Basic ROTC class in every semester in which they are enrolled. The classes that fulfill this requirement are as follows: • AERO 101, 102, 201, & 202 • MLTY 101, 102, 201, & 202 • NAVL 101, 102, 201 & either 202 (Marine Corps) or 210/220 (Navy) Cadets in their third and fourth years (i.e., those classified 2A, 2B, 1A, 1B) have a choice of how to fulfill their ROTC requirements. Those who are pursuing a commission will enroll in one Advanced ROTC class per semester. The classes that fulfill this requirement are as follows: • AERO 301, 302, 401, & 402 • MLTY 301. 302, 401, & 402 • NAVL 303, 304, 402, & 403/452 (Marine Corps) or 310, 311, 410/420, & 403/452 (Navy) Those junior and senior cadets who are not pursuing a commission will not enroll in the Advanced ROTC classes; instead, they will enroll in one ROTC-fulfillment course per semester. All non-commissioning cadets should take LDRS 371, Leadership in Organizations, as one of these fulfillment classes. The remaining courses may be chosen from a wide variety of classes in the Leadership Minor, leadership-oriented courses in students’ major fields, and other high-impact practice courses such as internships or undergraduate research courses. �The Citadel Academic Minor A minor is defined as a course of study that enables a student to make an inquiry into a single discipline or to investigate a particular topic across the boundaries of two or more disciplines. In either case, the minor is not simply a specified number of credit hours, but a well-defined program. A minor should complement the student’s major and not simply expand it with more courses in the same field. For this reason, students may not ordinarily pursue both a major and minor in the same discipline. However, in the case where a discrete topical minor is administered by the student’s major department, an exception may be in order. A minor consists of an ordered series of courses totaling at least 15 credit hours, at least 12 of which must be other than General Education courses and courses specified for major or other minor requirements and at least 6 of which must be at the 300/400 level. At least 9 hours of the minor must be organized in a logical sequence of required courses which provides general direction for the student’s study. At least 9 hours in the minor must be completed at The Citadel or in a Citadel Study Abroad Program. The student must earn a grade-point average of at least 2.000 on all coursework completed in the minor. Requirements for the minor must be completed concurrently with requirements for the student’s major. A student who meets all requirements for an approved minor will have both the major and minor indicated on the transcript. Requirements for each minor are presented in the appropriate academic school or department section of this catalog. �Undergraduate Curriculum 117 LIST OF MINORS Please refer to the department or school for a list of requirements.

(ex. A student who is majoring in supply chain management and taking SCMT 470, SCMT 480, or SCMT 490 must achieve a grade of “C” or higher in order for the course to fulfill a graduation requirement.) Certain courses require prerequisites. If a course requires prerequisites, then the department has carefully reviewed the course and indicated that students need to complete the prerequisites prior to the first day of class to ensure students are appropriately prepared for the content covered in the course. Students may register for a course as long as they are registered for the prerequisite, and those prerequisites MUST be completed before the first day of class. Students who have not met the course prerequisites by the first day of class will be dropped from the course. Course prerequisites will not be waived. Pursuing a Double Major In accordance with the general policies and procedures outlined in The Citadel college catalog for pursuing a double major, students may choose to double major within the Baker School of Business. In addition to the general policies and procedures outlined in The Citadel college catalog, the Baker School of Business requires that students complete all major required courses and major elective courses (24 hours) for which no more than 6 credits can be double-counted in meeting the requirements. All other courses (core courses, business electives and general electives) may be double-counted in meeting the requirements. �The Citadel Department of Accounting & Finance Department Head: Jones Professor: Bolt Associate Professors: Jones, Lim, Wright W. Francis Hipp Chair: Wilford Assistant Professor: Abdoh Instructors: Meeks Overview The Department of Accounting and Finance prepares graduates for successful careers in the financial services industry. The department offers two majors: accounting and finance. Students will have the opportunity to excel in a strong area of study leading to a degree that directly impacts a business’s success. Accounting and finance are interrelated fields that measure, analyze and evaluate the performance of an organization. The function of these two majors is complementary as accountants and financial analysts work closely together in both corporate and non-corporate settings. Faculty are dedicated to providing a high-quality educational experience, enhanced by research and professional interaction. Citadel alumni have achieved distinguished careers in accounting and finance, blending their academic work with the core values and principles of the institution. Finance Lab The state-of-the-art Finance Lab, which is built to simulate a real trading floor, features the latest computer and technology hardware and provides access to a wide range of financial data and analytical tools. The lab aims to extend educational goals by connecting theory to real-world applications, increasing student knowledge and expertise and helping students build their leadership skills. The lab is also used extensively by the Citadel Financial Management Association to manage the Baker School of Business Student-Managed Investment Fund. Major in Accounting The accounting major provides graduates with opportunities in business, government, and not-for-profit entities. Accounting students learn critical thinking skills as they analyze, interpret and evaluate both financial and non-financial information through the use of technical knowledge, research and data analysis. This degree prepares students with the accounting knowledge and technology skills required to meet the increasing demand for accountants and for numerous career options available in industry. Students will graduate with enhanced professional skills in the areas of financial and managerial data analysis, financial statement preparation and interpretation, �123 auditing, tax research and tax compliance. An accounting degree fulfills many of the academic requirements for well-recognized accounting certifications related to numerous career choices. Equipped with the tools for success, accounting majors often hold management positions and frequently start their own business. Professional development is a key component of the accounting major. Internships are a significant part of The Citadel’s commitment to offering professional development to accounting majors by providing on-the-job experience, highly valued by both students and employers.

As citizens, we are frequently asked to support legislative proposals. Should taxes be raised or lowered? Should Social Security benefits be raised or lowered? Should the U.S. adopt a single-payer system of health care? Should businesses be further regulated to slow climate change? Should parents be permitted further choice on where and how their children are educated? Should we spend more on the social safety net or on defense? Should we permit more or less immigration? Should domestic industry be protected with tariffs to save U.S. jobs? Should the minimum wage be raised? A thorough understanding of economics is critical to answering these questions. Economics is excellent preparation for anyone interested in law school. Economic principles ground much of judicial decision-making. Economics is also great preparation for the LSAT. A 2010 study using data from the Law School Admission Council, which administers the LSAT, found that economics and philosophy majors tied for first on average LSAT score among 12 largest disciplines.

Because World War II intervened, the first electrical engineering degrees were awarded to the class of 1948. The electrical and computer engineering programs are offered in two modes—day mode and the 2+2 evening mode. The day mode is open only to members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets, military veterans, and enlisted active duty students assigned to one of The Citadel’s ROTC Departments. All cadets must take one ROTC course each of their first four semesters, one credit hour of Leadership Training, and 2 non-credit Physical Education courses. Further, all military contracted cadets continue to take ROTC course for their last four semesters. The 2+2 evening mode is open to transfer students and does not require ROTC or Health and Physical Education. Otherwise curricula, faculty, textbooks, laboratory equipment, course content, classrooms, and laboratory rooms are the same for both modes. The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department is located on the third floor of Grimsley Hall, a first-tier engineering education facility that provides fully-equipped laboratories, classrooms and faculty offices. The related Departments of Mathematics and Computer Science, Physics, Mechanical and Civil and Construction Engineering are housed adjacent to the department, creating a “micro-campus” of science and technology. The student branch of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers was established in 1962 and is an active component of the electrical engineering program. A Citadel chapter of Tau Beta Pi, the national engineering honor society, recognizes junior and senior students who meet the organization’s high academic standards. The bachelor of science electrical engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), http://www.abet.org. Mission The mission of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is to prepare the individual for professional work or for graduate study in the fields of electrical and computer engineering and to provide as many of the elements of a broad education as can be included in a program of professional study leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering. �The Citadel In addressing its mission, the department strives, through small classes and hands-on experience in laboratories closely monitored by full-time faculty, to provide an environment highly conducive both to learning and to the development of close student-faculty relationships. Both the electrical and computer engineering curricula place emphasis on a broad liberal education base, a strong background in mathematics and basic sciences, and a logical sequence of electrical and computer engineering courses that provide the breadth and depth necessary for continuous professional growth in today’s technological society. In the junior year the students normally select an area of professional emphasis such as control systems, communication systems, electronics, or power systems. An integral part of the program is the design component that develops the student’s ability to address practical engineering problems. This is accomplished by the inclusion of engineering design problems and concepts throughout the curriculum and capped by a mandatory two-semester senior design course in which students undertake significant design projects. Convinced of the great value of practical experience, the department encourages its majors to obtain gainful employment in electrical or computer engineering or a related field for at least one summer, preferably between the junior and senior years. Program Educational Objectives Within a few years (3-5 years), Citadel Electrical and Computer Engineering graduates are expected to: 1. Succeed in the practice of Electrical or Computer Engineering, by ethically and judiciously applying engineering methods to solve problems facing a technologically complex society. 2. Sustain awareness of engineering-related issues through employment, professional development, professional registration, or graduate education. 3. Be principled leaders with strong communications and team-building skills. Student Outcomes The Citadel’s Electrical and Computer Engineering programs include assessment to demonstrate that students obtain: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgements, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives. �187 6. 7. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgement to draw conclusions. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies. Electrical & Computer Engineering Curriculum The electrical and computer engineering educational experience begins in the freshman engineering fundamentals course, ELEC 106. This freshman course develops basic skills and good teamwork habits through team case studies requiring the communication of creative ideas. The second semester freshman curriculum includes 3 credit hours of computer applications. The study of electrical and computer engineering topics in the sophomore year includes 6 credit hours of electric circuit analysis, 3 credit hours of digital logic and circuits, 3 credit hours of digital systems, and 1 credit hour of electrical laboratory. Theory is combined with application, demonstration, and experimental verification. In addition the first two years include 16 credit hours of mathematics, 8 credit hours of chemistry and/or biology, 8 credit hours of physics, and general education core courses to provide the foundation necessary for an engineering education. The junior year requires a total of 17 credit hours of electrical and computer engineering course work. Breadth of coverage is provided by courses in signals and systems analysis, electronics, systems (automatic controls), digital circuits and systems and other courses specific to the major. Many of these courses include engineering design problems drawn from the experience of the faculty. There is a single elective course that must be technical in nature and outside the mainstream of electrical and computer engineering. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of ELEC will count towards the major GPA for Electrical Enginering majors. For Computer Enginering majors, CSCI courses also count towards the major GPA. The senior year provides depth in electrical and computer engineering by requiring five out of an available seventeen 400-level electrical engineering elective courses taught and at least one approved Computer Science elective. The elective courses are ELEC 307 (Nuclear Engineering), ELEC 401 (Electronics II), ELEC 403 (Electric Power Systems), ELEC 405 (Electrical Measurements), ELEC 407 (Systems II), ELEC 413 (Advanced Topics in Electrical Engineering), ELEC 414 (System Simulation), ELEC 416 (Communications Engineering), ELEC 418 (Advanced Digital Systems), ELEC 419 (Computer Network Architecture), ELEC 423 (Digital Signal Processing), ELEC 424 (Solid-State Devices), ELEC 425 (Interference Control in Electronics), ELEC 426 (Antennas and Propagation), ELEC 427 (Energy Systems Engineering), ELEC 428 (Computer Architecture), ELEC 430 (Independent Research in Electrical Engineering), ELEC 450 (Electrical Engineering Internship), and CSCI 420 (Software Engineering). These electives provide the student the opportunity to pursue an area of interest. While narrow specialization is neither possible nor desirable at the undergraduate level, these three-credit electives provide depth in both design and theory in their specialized areas. Below are several examples of possible areas of concentration available to the student. �The Citadel Power Engineering CIVL 310 Statics and Mechanics of Materials for Non-Civil Engineers ELEC 307 Nuclear Engineering ELEC 403 Electric Power Systems ELEC 407 Systems II ELEC 405 Electrical Measurements ELEC 426 Antennas and Propagation ELEC 427 Energy Systems Engineering Communications PHYS 308 Optics ELEC 401 Electronics II ELEC 416 Communication Engineering ELEC 419 Computer Network Architecture ELEC 423 Digital Signal Processing ELEC 426 Antennas and Propagation Electronics PHYS 410 Thermodynamics ELEC 401 Electronics II ELEC 418 Advanced Digital Systems ELEC 423 Digital Signal Processing ELEC 424 Solid State Devices ELEC 405 Electrical Measurements Electrical and Computer Engineering Design Experience Engineering design is distributed throughout the electrical engineering curriculum.

For example, a first problem might ask the student to design a dormitory room workplace. Functionality, aesthetics, and cost of implementation are a few of the issues to be considered. Case studies are assigned that provide an opportunity for the students to work in teams. The emphasis is on the synthesis of a product that meets broad requirements. The students are introduced to the concept of design in which there is no single right answer and relatively few limits placed on the creative process. Techniques of analysis, synthesis, iteration, and approximations are studied in the sophomore and junior electrical and computer engineering courses. Specialized design exercises illustrate the use of these techniques in the areas of circuits, systems, electronics, electromagnetics, and digital systems. The senior year provides the opportunity for the student to begin to focus on design techniques in a particular area of interest through the choice of five senior elective courses. Examples range from the use of a load flow program to determine operational conditions of a small power system in a contingency situation (ELEC 403), to the design of a state estimator (ELEC 407), to the design and implementation of digital filters (ELEC 423). �189 The design experience culminates in the required senior design courses, ELEC 421 and ELEC 422. This two-semester design sequence provides students the opportunity to work on a project of interest and provides the faculty the opportunity to guide students in their first major design experiences and emphasize once more the various constraints that may come into play in a design. The students are taught several different structured design approaches. Project definition and documentation are stressed. Design teams of three to four students are formed at the beginning of the first semester. Students are instructed on various practical aspects of design, such as layout considerations, safety, functionality, and documentation of design. The student design teams select or propose a major design project to be completed by the end of second semester. They must enlist a faculty advisor to guide their project. At the end of the first semester the design teams present their design proposals (written and oral) that include their preliminary design (block diagram level), a schedule for the following semester, and a cost estimate. In the second semester, the teams do the detailed design and build, test, refine, demonstrate, and document their design projects. In addition to the technical aspects, project management and presentation techniques are taught and applied. A detailed project specification is developed and placed under tight change control. Financial and scheduling aspects of the project are tracked. A final presentation in both written and oral form is required at the end of the semester, along with a working demonstration.

As a pre-professional degree, English challenges students to think critically and to improve their communication skills. Course offerings cover the range of literature written in English, from the Middle Ages to our own times. The department also offers classes in creative writing, art, music, and philosophy. In preparing for careers after graduation, every student majoring in English completes at least one advanced writing class and at least one internship in professional communications. �227 The English major consists of twelve courses (36 credit hours). With a course of studies featuring thirteen general electives, students majoring in English have the flexibility to complete a minor in a complementary field. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of COMM and ENGL will count towards the major GPA. The student majoring in English is required to take the following courses: 1. English 203 (Masterpieces of British Literature), 2. English 211 (Mythology) or 212 (The Bible as Literature) 3. English 215 (Masterpieces of American Literature) 4. English 303 or 304 (Shakespeare I or II) 5. English 402 or 403 (Senior Seminar I or II) 6. English 411 (Legal Writing) or Communications 413 (Advanced Composition) 7. Communications 499 (Internship in Professional Communications) Five additional upper-level English courses (numbered 301 and above). Minor in English Objectives: Through the study of seminal literature and the practice of both academic and pre-professional writing, the minor in English hones the skills that people in every discipline use daily when they read, write, converse, and assert their independent ideas and opinions through these self-actualizing activities. Literature illustrates the rich interrelatedness of cultural, historical, economic, political, scientific, philosophical, and religious concerns, while encouraging individual creativity and serving as a model for cogent, graceful writing. The minor in English thus complements academic work in almost every other field, positioning the student for success in either civilian or military life. Competencies, Knowledge, and Skills to be Achieved: The English minor trains students to read analytically, synthesize information quickly, think critically, and write persuasively. These crucial transferable skills equip students to navigate an ever-changing and frequently uncertain job market. They also provide a foundation for graduate work in the humanities and for a range of pre-professional advanced degrees in fields such as business, divinity, education, law, library science, museum work, public policy, and social work. The minor in English also exposes students to a range of important literary texts, the canon of imaginative writing often called “the best that has been thought and said in the world.” Through the close analysis of literature, the minor also enables students to generate original arguments and ideas, to appreciate the nuanced range of perspectives on cultural and socioeconomic issues, to evaluate competing viewpoints, and to value diversity in an increasingly global society. �The Citadel Structure of the Minor: 1. Required Courses One of the following foundational courses (3 credit hours): ENGL 201 ENGL 202 ENGL 203 ENGL 215 One of the following pre-professional writing courses: COMM 207 COMM 2l6 COMM 260 COMM 413 ENGL 411 Or another approved pre-professional writing course. 2.

Minor in Fine Arts Objectives: The minor in Fine Arts is intended to deepen an appreciation for and encourage a lifelong engagement in the fine arts, including painting, sculpture, photography, music, film, drama, and creative writing. As participation in fine arts courses, both in practice and in theory, stimulates creative thinking, such as intelligence, medicine, and law, and develops problem solving skills that are applicable to other areas of study, this minor is meant to round out The Citadel experience. Students are also encouraged to engage with the broader artistic community of Charleston through participation in events, internships, exhibitions, and performances. Knowledge and/or Skills to be Achieved: Through the foundation courses in art and music, the student will gain a broad understanding of the cultural and historical significance of the fine arts as well as applied knowledge of a variety of artistic mediums. Further courses develop the student’s interest in more specific areas, such as musical performance, emphasis on a particular visual medium, or internships in local arts organizations.

HIST 359 Silk Roads and Nomadic Empires Three Credit Hours This course looks at the history of the caravan trade routes across Eurasia that have become known as “The Silk Road.” The significance of these trade routes lies in the fact that they ensured the distribution and mixing of luxury goods, religions, technologies, literatures, and peoples from one end of Eurasia to another. In fact, many scholars argue that these trade routes created a unified economic world system, which has made the cultures of Eurasia materially much stronger than those of any other continent. Moreover, the wealth generated by the silk roads often inspired the creation of nomadic empires that had an immense effect on the great agrarian civilizations that bordered the steppes. Through their immense military strength and prowess, these nomadic empires often significantly affected the history of the outlying sedentary civilizations. Thus, this course’s focus will be the Central Eurasian nomads and oasis-dwellers who played a central role in the functioning of the Silk Road and their impact on their agricultural neighbors. �The Citadel HIST 360 The History of Japan Three Credit Hours An examination of Japan’s history from its prehistoric origins to its postwar economic miracle.

The course examines the major characters, campaigns, and combatants of the Seven Years’ War in the Americas, Europe, Africa, and Asia. �The Citadel HIST 380 World War I Three Credit Hours This is a course on the Great War, the reality of which does not quite meet the stereotype. While there was the stalemate of the trenches, there was great movement in the East and even in the West in the last year. During the war, armies virtually rearmed with new weapons and retrained, adopting new tactics. Mass assaults gave way to storm squads; cavalry gave way to armor and aircraft. The squandering of lives led to mutinies. Economies saw unprecedented mobilization. It was total war, at a cost of 5,500 lives every day for a 1,500 day war, and one can argue that the outcome was far more cataclysmic than that of the Second World War. HIST 382 History of Military Leadership Three Credit Hours This course examines the many historical models of military leadership from the ancient world to the present, with emphasis on trends in strategy, tactics, management, and civil-military relations.

The ability to communicate effectively with the billions of non-English speakers in the realms of commerce, government, science, and the arts serves crucial national interests. Cultural sensitivity, heightened through language study, furthers our relations with the world. The language courses in the General Education curriculum cultivate four basic skills—reading, writing, listening, and speaking—with emphasis on communicative proficiency. The language minor enhances competence in the basic skills and allows for specialization in business practice, contemporary society, or literature. The language major hones fluency and imparts a detailed knowledge of life and letters. Students may pursue a B.A. in Modern Languages in French, German, or Spanish. The major is most flexible and has proven a sound preparation for coveted duty assignments, choice career opportunities in both public and private sectors, and graduate study in intelligence, business, law, or medicine. Students who excel are eligible for induction into the following national honor societies: Pi Delta Phi (French), Delta Phi Alpha (German), and Sigma Delta Pi (Spanish). In addition, students may pursue a B.A. in Modern Languages with Teaching Specialization in French, German, or Spanish. The curriculum provides a broad background in the specified language, culture, and literature to prepare the student to teach at the secondary school level. The student must make a formal application for admission to the Zucker Family School of Education for the Internship in Teaching as outlined in this catalog. Please refer to the following information regarding major GPA calculations: For the B.A. in Modern Languages, undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel in the respective language track and its corresponding prefix—FREN, GERM, or SPAN—will count towards the major GPA. For B.A. in Modern Languages with Teaching Track, undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel in the respective language track and its corresponding prefix—FREN, GERM, or SPAN—and in Education (EDUC) will count towards the major GPA. Plan of Undergraduate Major Thirty hours of coursework in the language of the student’s major starting at 201 or higher, whichever is more advanced, are required for the major. These include 201, 202, 301, 302, and at least one 400-level course. In ad- �The Citadel dition, students must engage in one of the following high-impact “Signature Experiences”: Study Abroad (203, 204, 390, or 391), an Internship (numbers differ by language), a Capstone Course in the Major (MLNG 499) or an additional 400-level course in the language of the major. The remaining twelve hours must be selected from the non-sequenced courses in the major language (300- and 400-level). Up to 9 credit hours towards the major may be earned in an approved study abroad program. Language students pursuing a double major will have the opportunity to count 1 course (3 credit hours) from another department, which should be related to the history, civilization, or culture of the target language in which the student is majoring. The course must be approved by the Head of the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures. Therefore, after completion of the core-curriculum language requirement, at least 27 credit hours (9 courses) must be taken from the language major, and 3 credit hours (1 course) may be taken from outside the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures. Minor in Chinese, French, German, or Spanish Objectives: The minor in Chinese, French, German, or Spanish builds on skills developed in the elementary/intermediate sequence, taking the student beyond practical proficiency to more sophisticated modes of discourse and greater understanding of social norms. Competencies, Knowledge, or Skills to Be Achieved: Employing the latest technology, instruction in advanced conversation and composition expands and refines expression in social and professional contexts. Course in the Department’s various summer study-abroad programs offer total immersion and highly individualized tutorials. Courses in civilization and culture, business language, and literature, in addition to promoting greater fluency, introduce to areas of specialization within the discipline. Many language majors, recognizing the considerable advantages of versatility in the marketplace, now declare a minor in another language. Structure of the Minor (Chinese, French, German & Spanish) Required Courses: 5 courses after 201 a. 202 b. 301 or 302 (in the chosen language c. Three upper-level elective courses in the chosen language taken at The Citadel or in a Citadel study-abroad program. One of which must be at the 400-level.

West Chair: Patterson Professors: Kapeluck, Mays Associate Professors: Porter, Segrest, Tenney Assistant Professors: Sun, Hostetter Instructor: Collins The Department offers an academic major in political science. This major affords students an opportunity to obtain a broad liberal arts education that enriches their lives and acquaints them with the rights and responsibilities of citizenship. The course of study for students majoring in political science begins with a set of core courses to introduce the student to the discipline. Students then have the opportunity to select from a list of specialized electives in their area of concentration and to increase their understanding of their field by taking courses in the related disciplines of anthropology, criminal justice, economics, history, psychology, and sociology as well as General Electives from other departments. As the central element of a general education, political science provides preparation for graduate education and for useful and satisfying careers. Political Science Major: The course of study for students majoring in political science prescribes a set of core courses to introduce the student to the discipline. In addition, each major must select one of the following departmental subfields for specialization in the junior and senior years. A. American Government and Politics. B. International Politics and Military Affairs. C. Pre-Law and Legal Studies. The discipline of political science seeks to describe and to explain political phenomena, including both foreign and domestic political institutions, the political process, political behavior, and contemporary political and security issues. Political science also studies the relationships of individuals with their governments, including the rights and responsibilities of citizens. The major has especially strong appeal for those who anticipate careers in law and government, particularly in the Foreign Service, Department of Homeland Security and Department of State, intelligence agencies, the military services of the US Army, US Navy, US Air Force, and US Coast Guard, as well as a broad range of ancillary civilian and government organizations. �295 Other Programs and Courses: The Department offers five minors: NonWestern Studies, American Politics, International and Military Affairs, Public Policy and Law and Legal Studies. The Department also participates in the college’s interdisciplinary minors in African-American Studies, International Criminal Justice, International Relations, Southern Studies, Leadership Studies, and East-Asian Studies. For a full description of these minor programs, please refer to the appropriate entries in this catalog: Department of Criminal Justice - International Criminal Justice; Department of English - Leadership Studies; Department of History - African-American Studies, International Relations, and Southern Studies; Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures - East Asian Studies. Major Requirements: B.A. in Political Science The political science major consists of seventeen courses (51 credit hours), mostly within the department but including as well a mix of humanities and social science courses (with the exact mix depending on the subfield the student selects). In addition, it provides for eight elective courses which students may take as they choose. Students pursuing a degree in Political Science will take up to nine hours of language instruction that may or may not build on high school study: • Students who wish to study the same language at The Citadel that they studied in high school will take a placement test in that language. There are three possible results of that test. If the student places into the elementary level of the language, he/she will be required to take 102, 201, and 202. If the student places into the intermediate level of the language, he/she will be required to take 201 & 202. The third class in the requirement may be an upper-level language class, or it may be a general elective. Students who place beyond the intermediate level will have satisfied the language requirement. They will simply take nine hours of general elective classes; these classes may be upper-level language classes. • Students who wish to study a different language than what they studied in high school will be required to take 101, 102, and 201. The complete course of study is presented in the Courses of Study section of this catalog. First, each student is required to complete a specified core of six courses: LDRS 202 Principled Leadership in American Government and Society PSCI 231 International Politics PSCI 232 Comparative Politics PSCI 304 American Political Thought or PSCI 391, Foundations of Political Theory; PSCI 392, Modern Political Theory or PSCI 492, Topics in Political Philosophy and Theory PSCI * Capstone Seminar in Politcal Science PSCI 462 Constitutional Law: Civil Rights and Liberties. *course number to be determined/contact department Second, no later than the beginning of the fall semester of the junior year, each political science major must select one of the subfields for course concentration during the junior and senior years. The three subfields are Subfield �The Citadel A: American Government and Politics, Subfield B: International Politics and Military Affairs, and Subfield C: Pre-Law and Legal Studies. Majors must complete selected courses within one subfield of their choice. As detailed below, three of these courses are specifically required; the remaining courses are a combination of subfield electives selected from a list for each subfield, American Politics electives (see the electives list for Subfield A), political science electives, a non-PSCI humanities/social science upper level elective, history electives, and macroeconomics (for Subfields A and C only). Inasmuch as subfield requirements vary, students are encouraged to pay careful attention to the distribution of courses in the subfield selected. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of PSCI will count towards the major GPA. All courses within a subfield are open both to majors in other departments and to political science majors who are concentrating in one of the other two subfields.

Students in psychology develop an approach to learning based on empirical, objective methodology and statistical data analysis. These skills enhance critical thinking and permit theory construction and analysis. Students who graduate from this program are expected to have the knowledge base and the data analysis skills to support graduate study in any of the specialty areas of psychology. They also should be well prepared for employment in positions that require understanding and motivating others. Examples of such employment areas include positions in personnel work, social service and mental health agencies, law enforcement, sales, and business. The major in psychology aligns with the American Psychological Association Guidelines for the Undergraduate Psychology Major 3.0 (2013). The structure of the psychology major fits with the five main areas of focus advocated by the guidelines: 1) emphasis on the basic knowledge of concepts in the discipline in psychology; 2) emphasis on scientific methods and critical thinking; 3) emphasis on ethics, social responsibility, and diversity; 4) emphasis on effective communication skills; and 5) emphasis on professional development. The major program in psychology, which leads to the Bachelor of Arts degree, consists of a minimum of 36 hours of course work in psychology, including PSYC 211 (or PSYCH 201), PSYC 202, PSYC 203, PSYC 303, PSYC 310, PSYC 405, and PSYC 410. Students also will choose two courses from both Cluster A and Cluster B classes. Cluster A consists of PSYC 302, PSYC 311, PSYC 314, PSYC 318, PSYC 402, and PSYC 403. Cluster B consists of PSYC 304, PSYC 305, PSYC 306, PSYC 312, PSYC 313, PSYC 315, PSYC 316, and PSYC 317. The total number of classes across both clusters will be four. Students will also select one additional elective class from either Cluster A or Cluster B; alternatively, a special topics class (PSYC 463) may be used to satisfy this particular elective requirement. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of PSYC will count towards the major GPA. The department also offers elective courses to majors in other academic disciplines. The Department of Psychology offers graduate degree programs leading to the Ed.S. degree in School Psychology and the M.A. in Psychology: Clinical Counseling. �The Citadel The Department of Psychology also sponsors the Psychology Club, which is open to all students interested in the study of human behavior regardless of their major. The club seeks to stimulate and maintain interest in scholarship and service and to promote closer social and intellectual association among students. Psi Chi, the national honor society in Psychology, has a Citadel chapter open to undergraduate majors or minors with a 3.000 average who rank in the top third of their class. Psi Chi activities promote scholarship and research that prepare students for graduate school or other future endeavors in psychology. Minor in Psychology Objectives: The Psychology Department recognizes that students from many diverse fields and areas of interest (e.g., business administration, pre-law, pre-med, education, law enforcement, and the military) may benefit from more in-depth knowledge of the behavioral sciences. The minor in psychology is designed to allow students maximum flexibility in choosing courses to complement their current major. Competencies, Knowledge or Skills to be Achieved: Students minoring in psychology have the opportunity to enhance their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Students will also develop the ability to review the scientific literature and communicate their findings through multiple media (oral presentations, written papers, and paper presentations at conferences).

From a more applied perspective, physics is used to solve practical problems, often to advance technology to positively impact humanity. Physics is particularly concerned with those aspects of nature which can be formulated in terms of principles and laws reduced to their essence and expressed in an elegant and concise mathematical form. The Department of Physics at The Citadel provides a comprehensive curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics, a minor in Applied Physics, and a minor in Aerospace Science. The department sponsors a section of the Society of Physics Students and the physics honor society Sigma Pi Sigma to provide fellowship for physics majors and other students of similar interests and to make available extracurricular activities which illustrate that physics in practice is a vital and active discipline. I. Bachelor of Science degree in Physics. This degree is designed to offer students a thorough education in physics at the undergraduate level and to prepare them for technical careers or to pursue graduate study in physics or related areas as appropriate to their career aspirations. Professional physicists have traditionally experienced careers in education, industry and government, but a sound knowledge of basic physics has become increasingly important to other areas of endeavor as well. For example, a strong undergraduate background in physics is considered essential to a career as a commissioned officer in one of the high-technology branches of the Armed Forces. The curriculum for the B.S. degree in physics begins with a one-semester in- troduction to physics course, PHYS 101, followed by a three-semester course sequence which emphasizes fundamental principles, problem solving, and laboratory skills. The sophomore, junior and senior years include upper- division courses to support the intellectual growth of physics majors. These are in, for example, analytical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, computational physics, electronics and sensor systems, optics, and quantum mechanics. The senior physics capstone courses (PHYS 420/421) give all majors an opportunity to take on a research project. The program for physics majors retains flexibility in that a student who does not intend a profession in physics may, at the discretion of the department head, replace up to six credit hours of physics courses numbered above 300 with courses numbered above 300 in other science fields. �407 II. Physics courses for majors in other fields. Descriptive cou- rses in astronomy, (ASTR 105 with lab ASTR 155 and ASTR 1 06 with lab ASTR 156), are offered for some majors to complete the freshman science requirement. The department offers an algebra based physics sequence, PHYS 203 (College Physics I), and PHYS 204 (College Physics II). For students majoring in physical sciences, engineering, mathematics, and those preparing to be secondary school teachers in general science or physical science, the department offers PHYS 221 ( Physics with Calculus I) and PHYS 222 (Physics with Calculus II). Students in PHYS 203 and PHYS 221 also enroll in PHYS 271 (Introductory Physics Lab I). Students in PHYS 204 and PHYS 222 enroll in PHYS 272 (Introductory Physics Lab II). A student may not use both PHYS 203/204 and PHYS 221/222 in meeting degree requirements, nor can a student take the 203/204 sequence after completing PHYS 221/222. However, should a student whose major does not require PHYS 221/222 complete PHYS 203/204 and then decide, for whatever reason, to complete the calculus-based sequence, PHYS 221 and 222 may satisfy General Elective requirements. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of PHYS will count towards the major GPA.

We do this through overseeing all credit-bearing academic leadership courses (LDRS-prefix), the Leadership Studies Minor, as well as through our graduate programs: Master of Science in Leadership, Graduate Certificate in Leadership, and Graduate Certificate in Military Leadership. The mission of the Department of Leadership Studies is to enhance the ability of students from any academic background to perform effectively as principled leaders in their present or future leadership roles. The program utilizes interdisciplinary courses to engage students in comprehensive learning about leadership in applied contexts. At various points, the curriculum allows students to tailor the focus of their study toward individual and career interests. Minor in Leadership Studies Objectives: The minor in Leadership Studies is designed to address learning, scholarship, and critical thinking about leadership from various analytical perspectives and, as a result, to give students a broad understanding of the nature of effective leadership. The Leadership Studies minor complements the “leadership laboratory” aspect of cadet life at The Citadel through interdisciplinary study employing historical, political, literary, psychological, and business administration approaches to the subject. Looking at factual, fictional, and theoretical models of leadership, the various courses examine leadership questions not only with respect to effectiveness but also in their more problematic aspects-such as abuse of power, male and female stereotypes, cultural chauvinism, and questions of duty versus individual responsibility. The curriculum as a whole addresses issues of leadership as such, as opposed to a concern with issues directly related to the circumstances of particular times and places. �419 Structure of the Minor: Required Courses (9 hours) LDRS 371 Leadership in Organizations LDRS 401 Senior Leadership Seminar/Project LDRS 433 Special Topics in Leadership Studies Academic Electives (Choose 2 for a total of 6 hours) LDRS 320 Leadership Communications LDRS 433 Special Topics in Leadership* BIOL 292 Leadership for Environmental Sustainability EDUC 330 Developing Leadership Skills through Peer Counseling ENGL 371 Literary Paradigms of Leadership HIST 371 Historical Studies in Leadership HIST 382 History of Military Leadership INTL 402 Military Instrument of Power MGMT 307 Leading Inclusion & Diversity MGMT 311 Human Resource Management MGMT 411 Business Ethics NURS 404 Nursing Leadership PHIL 290 Ethics PSCI 305 American Presidency PSCI 306 Legislative Process PSCI 371 Leadership in Politics PSYC 371 Psychology of Leadership PGMT 401 Project Management Career Skills SMGT 302 Sport Communications SMGT 404 Leadership in Sport Organizations *Note: Must be a different topic than your required LDRS 433.

In the initial three semesters, all students receive an introduction to the essential aspects of the Navy and Marine Corps warfighting team, the history of seapower and maritime affairs, and naval leadership and management. Students receive their subsequent instruction in either Navy or Marine Corps service specific courses. Navy option students study naval engineering, combat systems, navigation, and naval operations and seamanship. Marine option students study Marine Corps organization and weapon systems, the historical development of warfare, and amphibious operations. Both options conclude with practical leadership training designed as final preparation for assuming the responsibilities of a junior officer in the Navy or Marine Corps. An added value of being a member of The Citadel NROTC Unit is the opportunity to participate in a variety of quality off-campus Field Training Exercises (FTXs). These opportunities are enhanced by the close proximity, and eager support, of several local DoD organizations and installations. For Navy option midshipmen, FTXs include shipboard training, aviation operations, and joint operations with local Coast Guard assets. For Marine option midshipmen, FTXs consist of field orientation and tactical exercises conducted aboard nearby military installations.

The idea of “citizen-soldiers,” trained to take up arms for their country in time of conflict but prepared to serve with integrity and discipline in all walks of life, has been central to its mission from its early years. In December of 1822, following the discovery of a slave revolt planned by Denmark Vesey, the South Carolina state legislature passed “An Act to Establish a Competent Force as a Municipal Guard for the Protection of the City of Charleston and Vicinity.” The original Citadel, intended to serve as an arsenal and guardhouse, was constructed near the site of Charleston’s Revolutionary War fortifications. Located just north of Calhoun Street, it stood in a neighborhood of free blacks, working-class whites, and slaves, where it provided a visible reminder of city authority. It was initially intended to house a municipal guard, but was instead guarded first by United States troops and then, during and after the Nullification Crisis in the early 1830s, by local troops. In 1833, the legislature voted to consolidate arms and munitions at two locations, the Citadel in Charleston and the Arsenal in Columbia. In 1842, they voted to replace the local guard with students. Half of the students would pay tuition; the other half would be “beneficiary cadets,” young men selected from among the poorer residents of each county, whose tuition would be paid by the state. Importantly, all cadets took the same classes and performed the same duties, while uniforms erased social distinctions and rank was based on merit alone. The inclusion of cadets from all counties helped unify the state politically, while the spaces available to beneficiary cadets made The Citadel one of the only places in the state where the sons of poorer citizens could gain a college education. In their curriculum and military training the schools were modeled on the United States Military Academy at West Point, Norwich (University), and the Virginia Military Institute. The first classes were taught in 1843. Two years later the Citadel and Arsenal were combined, so that fourth-class cadets (freshmen) attended classes at the Arsenal, then transferred to the Citadel for their remaining three years. From the beginning, The Citadel was known for its high academic standards. Cadets were required to take courses in history, literature, logic, French, moral philosophy, and elocution, a liberal arts education that would prepare them to serve as leaders in public life. Many entered careers in law, medicine, and education. Others were called to religious service, including Bishop Ellison Capers, class of 1857, and William Porcher DuBose, class of 1855, one of the most influential theologians in the Episcopal tradition. Cadets also studied the practical sciences, including chemistry, physics, civil and military engineering, mathematics, astronomy, geology, and surveying. Among the school’s early �  8   The Citadel alumni, E. L. Heriot, Class of 1847, conducted the first railroad survey west and south of the Rio Grande River, while T. J. Arnold, Class of 1852, designed the harbor and wharves of San Francisco and Oakland, California. Students also studied infantry and artillery tactics, and helped train the state’s Palmetto Regiment for service in the Mexican-American War. The Civil War and Reconstruction When South Carolina seceded from the Union in December 1860, federal troops were moved from Fort Moultrie to Fort Sumter. To protect the entrance to Charleston Harbor, the Governor of South Carolina ordered a fortification to be constructed on Morris Island. On January 9, 1861, Citadel cadets who were stationed on Morris Island fired on a U.S. steamer, the Star of the West, which had been sent to re-supply Fort Sumter. On January 28, 1861, the Corps of Cadets were incorporated into the military organization of the state as The Battalion of State Cadets. The cadets took part in eight engagements in defense of Charleston and South Carolina. In recognition of their service, the Office of the South Carolina Adjutant General authorized The Citadel to carry the following battle and campaign streamers: Star of the West, January 9, 1861 Wappoo Cut, November 1861 James Island, June 1862 Charleston and Vicinity, July to October 1863 James Island, June 1864 Tulifinny, December 1864 James Island, December 1864 to February 1865 Williamston, May 1865 The college remained in operation throughout much of the war, and cadets were eligible for commissions in the state’s military upon graduation. Of the 224 graduates living at the time of the Civil War, 209 entered the Confederate service. Four graduates achieved the rank of Brigadier General: Johnson Hagood, Ellison Capers, Evander Law and Micah Jenkins. Citadel graduates were involved in the major battles of the war, including Fort Sumter, First Manassas, Shiloh, Vicksburg, Antietam, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Atlanta, and Petersburg. The Arsenal Academy burned during the fall of Columbia in 1865 and never reopened. The Citadel was occupied by federal troops when Union forces entered Charleston in early 1865. After the end of Reconstruction Citadel alumni, who had organized the Association of Graduates in 1852, pressured the legislature to reopen the school. Although many legislators questioned the need for a state-supported military college in the absence of munitions to guard, the support of alumni and the Washington Light Infantry, as well as the school’s renewed commitment to educating beneficiary cadets, ultimately saved the institution. It reopened in 1882. �History of The Citadel 9 Military Service Citadel alumni have served in all major military actions in which the United States has been involved since the late nineteenth century. Seventeen graduates served with volunteer regiments and five alumni served with the Regular Army in the Spanish-American War in 1898. The National Defense Act of 1916 began the formation of Reserve Officers Training Corps in U.S. colleges and offered the opportunity for recent graduates to enter the Regular Army. 315 Citadel graduates served in World War I; of the class of 1917, all 33 entered military service. During World War II, The Citadel had the distinction of having the highest percentage of its students enter the military service of any college, with the exception of the service academies. Of 2,976 living graduates in 1946, 2,927 had served their country. Before the end of the war, 279 Citadel men had given their lives. Citadel graduates participated in all major campaigns of World War II, from Pearl Harbor through the major engagements in the European, North African, and Pacific Theaters, and at sea. A number of Citadel graduates fought in the Philippines and endured the Bataan Death March. The Citadel also provided wartime training to over 10,000 men under a contract with the War Department. In the Korean War, roughly 1500 alumni were on active duty, and 31 graduates were killed in action. Sixty-five Citadel men gave their lives in Vietnam, and several graduates were prisoners of war in North Vietnam. Graduates also displayed their valor in the liberation of Grenada and peacekeeping operations in Beirut, Lebanon, and in the Balkans. During the Persian Gulf War 22 cadets served with Reserve and National Guard units; alumni served in both the Active and Reserve components of the Armed Forces. Citadel alumni, veteran students, and current cadets assigned to activated Reserve and National Guard units have served in both Afghanistan and Iraq. Twenty Citadel alumni have given their lives for their country in the War on Terror. Citadel Expansion The Corps of Cadets has grown from 43 students enrolled at the Arsenal and Citadel in 1843 to 2,356 in 2020. With 40 percent of the Corps now coming from out of state, and a student body that represents 27 different countries, the college draws students from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. The Citadel has attracted international students since the 1920s, when Chinese students entered as cadets, sponsored by the Boxer Indemnity Fund. Most went on to serve in the Chinese Army, several achieving the rank of Brigadier General. The Chinese cadets were followed by groups of students from Thailand in the 1960s, Iran in the 1970s, and Jordan in the 1970s and 1980s. Connections forged during international students’ college years could grow into lifelong bridges: Charles G. Huie later returned to the U.S. to conduct research as an engineer with the U.S. Army; Andrew Chinn became a business owner in the U.S. The first African-American cadet, Charles D. Foster, entered the Citadel in 1966, three years after South Carolina began integrating its public colleges and universities. He graduated in 1970, followed by Joseph Shine in 1971; six African-American students graduated in 1973. African-American students were often targeted with racial slurs and threats of racial violence. At the same time, the unique culture of the Corps of Cadets, and particularly the shared experience of the fourth-class system, helped promote integration across racial lines. Today, �  10   The Citadel black and African-American students make up 7% of the Corps of Cadets, and 23% of the Corps are minorities. Women began attending The Citadel in 1949 as part of the summer school program, and were admitted to evening classes in 1966. In 1995, Shannon Faulkner, through court orders, became the first woman to matriculate into the Corps of Cadets. She resigned a few days later, but the next year, following a United States Supreme Court ruling on a similar case involving the Virginia Military Institute, the Citadel Board of Visitors voted to revoke the male-only admissions policy of the Corps of Cadets. In August of 1996, four females matriculated with the class of 2000. Two of these resigned amid allegations of hazing and harassment. The lawsuits and negative publicity associated with this incident marked a difficult time for the reputation and image of The Citadel and its alumni. Nancy Mace received her degree three years later, becoming the first female graduate of the Corps of Cadets. She was followed by Petra Lovetinska, who became the first female cadet to receive a commission in the U.S. Armed Forces. Today, women make up 9.7% of the Corps of Cadets. Women and minorities are an integral part of the Corps, many occupying key positions in the cadet chain-of-command, varsity athletics, and campus organizations. They also form an important part of The Citadel’s strong alumni network and have served on the Citadel Board of Visitors. Veteran students, too, have become important contributors to the Citadel’s academic life. Veterans were first admitted as civilian students under the GI Bill® at the end of World War II; the current veterans program was established in 2007 and 68 veterans are currently enrolled as day students. In 1968, the Citadel began granting graduate degrees through an evening program. The program grew until 1994, when the Citadel Board of Visitors approved the foundation of the College of Graduate and Professional Studies (now known as the Citadel Graduate College, or CGC). A coeducational institution from its conception, the CGC is now a mainstay of the Citadel’s academic environment, offering 28 graduate degree programs and 26 graduate certificate programs. The Citadel’s growth has led to the need for an ever-larger physical campus. By the end of World War I, the school had outgrown its location on Marion Square and the City of Charleston donated land, previously the site of the South Carolina Interstate and West Indian Exposition, for a new campus. The current campus opened in 1922 with Padgett-Thomas Barracks, an infirmary, two wings of Bond Hall, and other auxiliary buildings. State- and federally funded building projects during the Depression included Summerall Chapel and the distinctive Works Progress Administration faculty houses. The college continues to expand as it serves a growing student body. Leading the Community and the World In addition to a long history of military service, the school’s citizen-soldier ideal prepares graduates for service and leadership in civil capacities. Alumni have gone on to pursue distinguished careers in areas including law, politics, medicine, engineering, education, business, and law enforcement. Ernest F. Hollings, Class of 1942, served as South Carolina Governor and United States �History of The Citadel 11 Senator. Joseph P. Riley, Jr., Class of 1964, served ten consecutive terms as mayor of Charleston, overseeing a number of ambitious development projects. Alvah H. Chapman, Class of 1942, headed the influential Knight Ridder newspaper chain, while author Pat Conroy graduated in the Class of 1967. The Citadel and its graduates have also been active in world affairs. In addition to serving as Governor of South Carolina, John C. West, Class of 1942, served as U.S. Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, while Langhorne A. Motley, Class of 1960, served as U.S. Ambassador to Brazil and as Assistant Secretary of State for Latin American Affairs. Today’s Citadel builds on this distinguished legacy, preparing students to lead with integrity in an increasingly interconnected world. Through a growing study abroad program, students develop language skills and gain experience working with a range of cultures and countries. The current honor system, reinstituted in 1955, enshrines the integrity of students and alumni as a cornerstone of The Citadel’s values. During their academic careers and beyond, Citadel men and women put into practice the core values and principles of the institution. SUPERINTENDENTS /PRESIDENTS OF THE CITADEL Captain William F.

Core Values Honor First and foremost, honor includes adherence to the Honor Code of The Citadel. A cadet “will not lie, cheat or steal, nor tolerate those who do.” The commitment to honor extends beyond the gates of The Citadel and is a life-long obligation to moral and ethical behavior. In addition, honor includes integrity, “doing the right thing when no one is watching.” Finally, honorable behavior includes exercising the moral courage to “do the right thing when everyone is watching.” The Honor Code is the foundation of our academic enterprise. Duty First and foremost, duty means to accept and accomplish the responsibilities assigned to me. At The Citadel, my primary duty is to perform academically and then to perform as a member of the Corps of Cadets and the campus community. I accept the consequences associated with my performance and actions. Once I have held myself accountable for my actions, then I will hold others accountable for their actions. Finally, duty means that others can depend on me to complete my assignments and to assist them with their assignments. Duty is also a call to serve others before self. Respect First and foremost, respect means to treat other people with dignity and worth --the way you want others to treat you. Respect for others eliminates any form of prejudice, discrimination, or harassment (including but not limited to rank, position, age, race, color, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, physical attributes, etc.). In addition, respect for others means to respect the positions of those in authority which include faculty, staff, administrators, active duty personnel, and the leadership of the Corps of Cadets. Finally, respect includes a healthy respect for one’s self. Mission As a higher education institution, The Citadel’s mission is to educate and develop our students to become principled leaders in all walks of life by instilling the core values of The Citadel in a disciplined and intellectually challenging environment. A unique feature of this environment for the South Carolina Corps of Cadets is the sense of camaraderie produced through teamwork and service to others while following a military lifestyle. The Citadel strives to produce graduates who have insight into issues, ideas, and values that are of importance to society. It is equally important that Citadel graduates are capable of both critical and creative thinking, have effective communication skills, can apply abstract concepts to concrete situations, and possess the methodological skills needed to gather and analyze information. Throughout its history, The Citadel’s primary purpose has been to educate undergraduates as members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets and to prepare �  14   The Citadel them for post-graduate positions of leadership through academic programs of recognized excellence supported by the best features of a military environment. The cadet lifestyle provides a structured environment that supports growth and development of each student’s intellect, discipline, physical fitness, and moral and ethical values. The four pillars which define The Citadel experience for cadets consist of these four developmental dimensions. A complementary purpose of The Citadel, realized through The Citadel Graduate College, is to provide the citizens of the Lowcountry and the State of South Carolina opportunities for professional development by offering a broad range of educational programs of recognized excellence at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. These programs are designed to accommodate the needs of non-traditional students seeking traditional and demanding academic challenges. Institutional Characteristics. The Citadel is a coeducational, comprehensive, public, four-year institution whose primary undergraduate student body consists of more than 2,400 members of the Corps of Cadets, all of whom reside on campus. The primary service area for these students is regional, with approximately half of each freshman class coming from South Carolina. The Citadel, however, does draw undergraduate students from all parts of the United States and many foreign countries. The college offers a wide range of baccalaureate degree programs (Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, and Bachelor of Science in Nursing) in the humanities, social and natural sciences, business administration, engineering, and education. These academic programs prepare graduates of the Corps of Cadets for a variety of careers; about half of these graduates enter business and the professions, a third or more enter the military and government service, and the remainder go directly into graduate and professional study. Many graduates choose to pursue professional or graduate degrees later in their careers. Through its undergraduate and graduate programs, The Citadel Graduate College serves a degree-seeking population of approximately 1,300. The primary service area is the South Carolina Lowcountry. The Citadel Graduate College offers eight baccalaureate degree programs (Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice, Bachelor of Arts in Political Science, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, and Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Bachelor of Science in Social Studies Education), seven graduate degree programs (Master of Arts, Master of Science, Master of Arts in Education, Master of Arts in Teaching, Master of Education, Master of Business Administration, and Specialist in Education), and eight certification programs. Meeting the needs of the South Carolina Lowcountry in terms of instruction, public service, and research, including such initiatives as cooperative programs with other educational institutions, is an important part of The Citadel’s mission. Together, the Corps of Cadets and The Citadel Graduate College enroll approximately 3,700 students, about two-thirds of whom come from South Carolina. In its education programs, The Citadel acknowledges and endorses the teacherscholar ideal, recognizing that the excellence of all of its academic programs is dependent upon the quality of its faculty. This ideal is pursued through teaching and lecturing, researching, writing, publishing, and public service. The Citadel’s faculty also address audiences beyond the college by sharing their knowledge with other scholars and with the public. �General Information 15 Four-Year Principled Leader Development Model 4th class Prepare 3rd class Engage 2nd class Serve 1st class Lead The Purpose of The Citadel’s Military Environment The Citadel seeks to provide the best qualities of a military and disciplined environment to support the growth and development of character, fitness, and moral and ethical principles, thereby preparing its students to meet the requirements of citizens and especially of leaders. From the first year, with the Fourth-Class System, through the senior year, the military environment requires additional duties and responsibilities not normally found on a college campus. The military environment at The Citadel also attempts to draw out and cultivate such values as truth, honor, integrity, and courage. Qualities of proper behavior and etiquette are stressed, and excellence in military bearing and appearance is taught. Whether in military or civilian life, the testimony of the value of this institution in service to the nation, state, and local communities is prominent. Official Communications Each Citadel student is assigned a Citadel e-mail address. Official communications are often sent electronically, and these communications will be sent to the cadet’s Citadel e-mail address. It is the responsibility of each student to check his/her Citadel e-mail regularly to ensure receipt of all official communications. �  16   The Citadel Requirements for Admission The Citadel gives consideration to all applicants who meet the personal, physical, and educational requirements for admission to the Corps of Cadets. The Citadel seeks to enroll well-rounded, mature students whose motivation and educational achievements indicate that they are prepared to do college level work with a reasonable probability of success. Therefore, each admission portfolio is reviewed individually and must include at least the following: a.  High School Record (courses, grades, class standing). The high school record provides insight into an applicant’s motivation, study habits, and scope of interest. Particular attention is given to grades earned in English, mathematics, science, history, social sciences, and foreign languages. b.  College Entrance Examination Board Test Scores. Consideration is given to an applicant’s test scores on the College Board’s SAT or the American College Testing Program’s Assessment Exam (ACT). Although these test scores represent only one factor in the determination of an applicant’s acceptability, they tend to indicate the applicant’s educational development with respect to contemporaries; therefore, the applicant’s scores provide a reasonable evaluation of actual preparedness and potential to do college level work. c. The Citadel seeks to determine acceptability through a thorough evaluation of each applicant’s character, maturity, motivation, readiness for college, amenability to a regimented lifestyle, emotional stability, and potential to contribute to cadet life. Where any one of these factors is in question, the College may obtain additional information by means of interviews with the applicant and/or the applicant’s parents or other persons who know the candidate. If it is deemed necessary, The Citadel may request that the applicant present a written report on goals in life, reasons for choosing The Citadel, or reasons for choosing a particular major field of study. d. The Citadel reserves the right to cancel any academic acceptance or deposit if the recipient is found to be physically disqualified or if a subsequent academic or conduct record is found unsatisfactory. Entrance requirements must be fully met before the date of matriculation. No one will be admitted on probation. Admission Procedure Formal application for admission must be made by the applicant. The application for admission may be found online at www.citadel.edu/apply. The Citadel admits new students into the South Carolina Corps of Cadets only in the fall semester of each year. A nonrefundable application fee of $40 must accompany each application. All students are encouraged to apply no later than the fall semester of the prospective cadet’s senior year in high school. In addition, the applicant should make early arrangements to take the SAT or ACT test and have these test scores sent to The Citadel. Prospective cadets are responsible for having the official high school transcript sent directly to The Citadel’s Office of Admissions. �Requirements for Admission 17 The Citadel will advise the applicant of subsequent procedural actions as they are necessary. A deposit of $300 is required of all new cadets accepted for enrollment. This reservation fee is not refundable to those students who cancel their reservations after May 1. Each applicant must undergo a thorough medical examination. Final admission is contingent upon the results of this test. Only The Citadel’s forms, which are provided on-line by the Office of Admissions, may be used to report these results. The medical examination form shows the immunizations required by The Citadel. Legal Presence and Residency The State of South Carolina requires all state colleges and universities to verify each student’s legal presence in the United States. Prior to matriculation, each matriculant will be required to submit a photocopy of their birth certificate or valid U.S. passport. (A copy of the birth certificate must be provided as part of the preregistration information necessary for enrollment in the ROTC classes.) Personal Requirements Applicants to the South Carolina Corps of Cadets must meet the U.S. Army standard for height and weight (Army Reg 40-501) and must be physically qualified as determined by the Citadel Surgeon. An initial applicant who fails to meet the Citadel height/weight standard can gain admission by passing the Citadel body-fat standard (included on the Admissions website under Physical Fitness) using the U.S. Army technique for measuring body fat. The height/ weight standard for admissions is NOT the same as that required of a cadet. After matriculation, all freshmen fall under the Corps Physical Effectiveness Program and its standards as outlined in The White Book. Should an accident, injury, or serious illness in any way change the physical status of the applicant after acceptance but prior to arrival on campus, the Citadel Surgeon must be informed immediately. Any physical impairment could result in cancellation or postponement of admission. In addition, an applicant must meet the following personal requirements: a. Applicants must be at least 17 and less than 23 years of age on the day of matriculation at The Citadel. Exceptions to this policy are made only under extremely extenuating circumstances and with the permission of the Provost. b. Applicants may not be married. (If a cadet marries, he/she will be discharged immediately.) c. Applicants may not have childcare responsibilities for any minor child related to him/her by blood or marriage. (If a cadet assumes childcare responsibilities for any minor child related to him/her by blood or marriage, he/she will be discharged immediately.) d. Applicants must not have a record of conviction of a criminal offense showing poor moral character. e. Applicants are expected to be prepared physically for the rigors of cadet life. The Citadel Physical Fitness Test (CPFT) will be administered for record early in the fall semester. Individuals who do not meet standards will be required to participate in remedial physical training. �  18   The Citadel High School Course Requirements All applicants for admission to The Citadel must be graduates of accredited high schools or must have satisfactorily completed the General Education Development (GED) examination. By this, the basic requirements for admission to the College comply with standards prescribed by the South Carolina Commission for Higher Education (CHE). The following secondary school subjects are required: Area Units English 4 All four units must have strong reading (including works of fiction and non-fiction), writing, communicating, and researching components. It is strongly recommended that students take two units that are literature based, including American, British, and World Literature. Mathematics 4 These units must include Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry. A fourth higher-level mathematics unit should be taken before or during the senior year. Foundations in Algebra and Intermediate Algebra may count together as a substitute for Algebra I if a student successfully completes Algebra II. No other courses may be substituted for the three required mathematics courses (Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry). Applicants who plan to major in mathematics, computer science, chemistry, physics, or engineering and who have not completed at least one-half unit of trigonometry will be required to complete MATH 119 with a grade of C or higher prior to enrolling in calculus. Laboratory 3 Science Two units must be taken in two different fields of the physical, earth or life sciences and selected from among biology, chemistry, or physics or earth science. The third unit may be from the same field as one of the first two units (biology, chemistry, or physics or earth science) or from any laboratory science for which biology, chemistry, physics, or earth science is a prerequisite. Courses in general or introductory science for which one of these four units is not a prerequisite will not meet this requirement. It is also strongly recommended that students desiring to pursue careers in science, mathematics, engineering or technology take one course in all three fields. Foreign Two units of the same world language: Two units with a heavy emphasis on language acquisition 2 �Requirements for Admission 19 Social Science 3 One unit of U.S. History, a half unit of Economics, and a half unit of Government are required. World History or Geography is strongly recommended Fine Arts 1 One unit in appreciation of, history of, or performance in one of the fine arts. This unit should be selected from among media/digital arts, dance, visual and spatial arts Elective 2 Two units must be taken as electives. A college preparatory course in Computer Science (i.e., one involving significant programming content, not simply keyboarding or using applications) is strongly recommended for this elective. Other acceptable electives include college preparatory courses in English; fine arts; foreign languages; social science; humanities; matematics; physical education; and laboratory science (courses for which biology, physics, or earth science is a prerequisite) Physical Education 1 One unit of physical education to include one semester of personal fitness and another semester in lifetime fitness. Exemption applies to students enrolled in Junior ROTC and for students exempted because of physical disability or for religious reasons Prior to entering The Citadel, each applicant should take steps to address any weaknesses in preparation in English or mathematics. The Citadel offers courses in these areas each summer. The Citadel’s Policy on Testing for Illegal Drugs The Citadel has a clear and unwavering policy of zero tolerance for drugs. Whether on campus or off, the possession, solicitation, distribution, sale, or use of hallucinogenic, narcotic, or other controlled drugs or substances, or any drug paraphernalia, (except in accordance with a legal prescription for such substance, drug, or paraphernalia for the student possessing or using it), will result in expulsion. This policy does not permit cadets to tolerate these actions by fellow cadets. In support of this policy, The Citadel reserves the right to test members of the Corps of Cadets periodically for the presence of illegal drugs and other controlled substances. Agreeing to participate in this program of testing for drugs is a condition of final admission to The Citadel. Refusal to participate in this testing may lead to expulsion from the college. �  20   The Citadel Entrance Examinations All applicants for admission to The Citadel are required to take the College Board’s SAT or the American College Testing (ACT) Assessment Tests. If an applicant lists The Citadel on either the SAT or ACT examination, the test scores will be sent to The Citadel approximately 30 days after the tests are taken. An applicant should complete the required entrance examinations early in the student’s senior year in high school. Students from a foreign country whose native language is not English must receive satisfactory scores on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). Students who score less than 550 on the TOEFL paper exam or 79 on the computer exam are generally not eligible for academic acceptance. The TOEFL is prepared and administered by the Educational Testing Service of the College Entrance Examination Board and must be taken before March 1 of the spring preceding admission. In order to apply for these tests, the applicant may apply online. Test dates, registration information and deadlines may be found at the links below: SAT: https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/sat/register TOEFL: https://www.ets.org/toefl/test-takers/ibt/take/register/ ACT: https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/the-act/ registration.html Transfer Student Admissions A student who is applying for admission to the Corps of Cadets as a transfer student from another accredited college or university must have an official transcript sent directly from all colleges or universities previously attended to the Office of Admissions at The Citadel. The high school record and college entrance examination scores will also be considered. In addition to meeting all the personal requirements listed above for cadet admission, a transfer student must have at least a 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale) on all courses attempted. To be considered a transfer student, students must have earned a minimum of 24 hours of credit. Transfer students are subject to the Fourth-Class System. Please see the relevant information under the section entitled Military Policies. Transfer students pursuing a cadet degree are also subject to the requirement that they must reside in the Corps of Cadets for at least six full semesters or five semesters with one semester of approved study abroad. Home Schooled Student Admissions The Citadel will consider applications from qualified homeschooled students. Applicants from homeschool programs must meet the same requirements as traditional school students, including: • Must complete the South Carolina state college preparatory course prerequisite requirements; • Must submit a transcript that lists all courses taken, year completed, and level of course challenge (e.g., CP, Honors, AP, Dual Credit, etc.); • Homeschooled students from South Carolina must be registered with an accredited and recognized homeschool program. If not, a GED will �Requirements for Admission 21 be required. For non-resident applicants, if your state does not require an accredited program, The Citadel will consider those rules for admissions consideration. Credit by Examination Advanced Placement Program The Citadel awards advanced placement credit to applicants who score 3 or higher on appropriate examinations. Applicants desiring Advanced Placement credit must have the official score report sent directly to The Citadel from the College Board. A complete listing of course credits that may be earned through the AP program is found at https://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-credit-byexamination/advanced-placement-ap. International Baccalaureate Program The Citadel recognizes the International Baccalaureate (IB) and awards college credit for scores of 4 or higher on “higher level” examinations in the IB Program. The number of college credits will be determined by the score obtained. A complete listing of course credits that may be earned through the IB program is found at https://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-credit-by-examination/ international-baccalaureate-ib. Cambridge International The Citadel recognizes the Cambridge International AICE program is an international, advanced secondary curriculum equivalent to the British system of “A-Levels.” Students who wish to receive AICE credits should submit official transcripts to the Registrar’s Office who will have the transcript reviewed by the Department Head of the subject area. College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) CLEP enables students to establish, by examination, college credit at The Citadel. CLEP provides for recognition of college-level achievement acquired outside the conventional classroom. The Citadel will award credit to individuals achieving a score on a CLEP Subject Examination equal to the average exam scores of students who earned a grade of C in a regular college course in that subject. CLEP credit may not be earned for courses in which a student has attempted the relevant subject matter at any college or university, including The Citadel, prior to taking the CLEP exam. In addition, students successfully completing a CLEP exam may not earn credit for the equivalent course at The Citadel. Furthermore, credits earned through CLEP will not be counted as part of a student’s residency requirement for graduation. �  22   The Citadel Each academic department determines the amount of credit for a CLEP examination awarded based on the subject matter taught in their courses. Students who wish to take one or more of these examinations should contact CLEP directly for information about testing sites. The Citadel does not award credit for the CLEP General Exam. The minimum required score for all CLEP computerbased exams is 50, which represents the performance of students who earn a grade of C in the corresponding college course. In addition, The Citadel only awards credit for the lecture portion of natural science courses. Students must complete the laboratory portion of science requirements on-campus. For Modern Languages, prior approval to take a CLEP exam to satisfy a language requirement must be approved by the head of the Department of Modern Languages. A complete listing of course for which credit may be awarded through CLEP is found at https://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-credit-by-examination/clep. DANTES Subject Standardized Tests (DSST) DSST is a national testing program that offers students the opportunity to take exams in order to obtain college-level credit. DSST offers more than 35 exams in multiple subject areas. The Citadel awards college credit for students who receive a passing score of 400 on each exam taken. DSST credit may not be earned for courses in which a student has attempted the relevant subject matter at any college or university, including The Citadel, prior to taking the DSST exam. In addition, students successfully completing a DSST exam may not earn credit for the equivalent course at The Citadel. Furthermore, credits earned through DSST will not be counted as part of a student’s residency requirement for graduation. A complete listing of courses for which credit may be awarded through DSST is found at https://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-credit-by-examination/dsst �Academic Policies 23 Academic Policies Any exceptions to policies stated in this catalog, purported to have been made verbally to a student by an official of the college, are null and void unless documented with a signed statement from the college official authorized to make the exception. This catalog is not an unchangeable contract, but an announcement of the current policies. Implicit in each student’s matriculation at The Citadel is an unwritten agreement to comply with the institution’s rules and regulations, which The Citadel may modify to ensure the quality of its academic programs. When graduation requirements are changed, students will be informed in writing. Every effort will be made to ensure that the new requirements can be met by the student’s original expected graduation date. Catalog of Record The catalog bearing the number of the academic year in which cadets enter The Citadel will be their catalog of record for matters of academic policy (summer sessions will not be considered for this purpose). When a cadet is readmitted after an absence of at least three academic semesters (summer sessions will not be considered as semesters for this purpose), the catalog bearing the number of the academic year in which the student is readmitted will be the catalog of record for matters of academic policy and graduation requirements. Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: “A”  Superior “B”  Very Good “C”  Satisfactory; Acceptable “D”  Marginal; Passing “F”  Unsatisfactory “P” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that do not carry credit hours to designate passing performance. “S” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that carry credit hours to designate that a grade of “A,” “B,” or “C” has been earned and credit has been awarded. “U” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses to designate that a grade of “D” or “F” has been earned and no credit has been awarded. “W” Withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline. After that time, students will receive the grade of “F” should they fail to complete the course or complete it unsuccessfully. Under extenuating circumstances, the grade of “W” may be awarded after the official deadline at the discretion of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs after consultation with the instructor and requesting student. Supporting evidence is the responsibility of the student and must be submitted in writing to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. �  24   The Citadel “I”  An Incomplete is awarded when course requirements have been very nearly met but for authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. To be eligible for the grade of “I,” students must be passing at the time they are forced to terminate their participation in the course. Students who are not passing at the time they are forced to terminate their participation will receive the grade of “F” in the course. The grade of “I” must be removed within the first thirty class days of the next full semester, or the “I” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the Incomplete is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “I.” A student is not eligible for Dean’s List or Gold Star awards until Incompletes are removed. “IP” Grade assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed in the next full semester, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Should a student fail to complete a semester or summer session for any reason, the grade in each course in which the student is then enrolled shall be “F,” “I,” or “W” as determined by the individual faculty member in consultation with the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. No numerical symbol, bracket, or percentage is assigned the equivalent of any grade. Arbitrary distribution of grades according to some formula or curve is not permitted. However, by means of departmental supervision and consultation among instructors, every effort is made to obtain consistent grading standards within the department or school. End-of-the-semester grade reports and midterm progress reports are made available electronically through BANNER Self-Service. Grade-Point Average Computation For purposes of ascertaining a grade-point average, grades are weighted as follows: Grade Quality-Points Per Semester Hour A..................................................................................... 4 B..................................................................................... 3 C..................................................................................... 2 D.................................................................................... 1 F, I, IP, W, P, S, U........................................................ 0 The grade-point average for any semester is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of hours for which grades of “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “F” were received. �Academic Policies 25 The cumulative grade-point average on which graduation, academic probation, and academic discharge are based is determined by dividing the number of quality points earned at The Citadel by the number of quality hours attempted at The Citadel. For this purpose, the number of quality hours includes all credit hours attempted at The Citadel for which grades of “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “F” were received. The number of quality points earned includes all quality points associated with quality hours earned at The Citadel. The Citadel does not recognize plus or minus grades in undergraduate courses. Final Grade Appeal Policy The principle of academic freedom gives an instructor broad discretion in specifying the criteria by which student achievement is to be assessed and making decisions about the student’s accomplishments according to those criteria. Thus, except in unusual circumstances, an instructor’s decision about a grade may not be overruled. A student may, of course, request that his or her instructor review a grade for any required work in a course. Other than the course instructor, only the Provost and Associate Provost may change a grade. The following process outlines the formal Grade Appeals Process: Note: Students must submit their grievance to the instructor within three (3) weeks from the date that the final grade first appears on the student’s academic record. 1. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the instructor and then discusses these concerns. The instructor will respond to the student within five (5) business days (Note: State of SC holidays are not accounted as business days). If the student’s concerns are not resolved or if the instructor fails to respond within the allotted time, the student can proceed to the next step. 2. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the department head. (In the event the instructor is the department head, then the dean will play this role, and if the instructor is a dean, then the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs and Dean of General Studies will play this role.) The student then meets with the department head to discuss these concerns. The department head will respond to the student within five (5) business days. If the student believes that their concerns have not been addressed or if the department head fails to respond within the allotted time, the student can proceed to the next step. 3. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the dean. (If the student is uncertain of who the dean is, he/she should contact the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs who will direct the student appropriately.) The student then meets with the dean to discuss these concerns. The Dean provides guidance on what can be considered under the appeal process. If the student is not satisfied with the outcome of the discussion, the student can submit a grade appeal form to the dean or to the Associate Provost and provide required material within five (5) weeks from when grades were released. �  26   The Citadel 4. The dean will form a grade appeal committee consisting of at least three (3) tenured or tenure-track faculty from the School, with at least one from the academic department in which the course was offered and at least one from outside that department.) The dean will provide direction to the committee, including emphasizing the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of the process. 5. The dean may request materials as needed from the instructor regarding the grade appeal, including but not limited to grades, syllabus, and assignments, for the grade appeal committee. 6. The dean may request additional information from the student as needed for the grade appeal committee, as well as ask the student to craft a detailed letter about why he/she is appealing the grade. Note: The grade appeal committee does not interact with the student or instructor. Any needed materials are to be gathered and disseminated by the dean. 7. The grade appeal committee submits its recommendation to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs no later than 15 business days after receipt of a grade appeal form. Potential recommendations that may be forwarded include, but are not limited to: a. Change of grade b. Late Withdrawal c. Change of grade to Pass/Fail option d. Appeal is denied 8. The Associate Provost for Academic Affairs will notify the student and instructor of the appeal decision within 10 business days of receipt of the Grade Appeals Committee’s decision. The names of the members of the grade appeal committee are not shared in the decision letter nor are they shared with the course instructor or the student. 9. If the decision results in a grade change, the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs submits a copy of the letter to the Registrar, requesting the grade change and a copy goes to the faculty member. Academic Awards The Dean’s List recognition is given to undergraduate students who have earned 12 or more semester hours excluding Pass-Fail hours whose semester grade-point average is 3.200 or higher, with no grade of “I” and no grade below “C.” A Dean's list medal is given to cadets to be worn on their cadet uniform during the following semester. A Dean’s List certificate is awarded to non-cadet students who meet the requirements for Dean’s List for the work in a semester. Dean's List is not issued for the summer semester. Gold Stars recognition is given to those students on the Dean's List who have made a grade-point average of 3,700 or higher for the work of a semester. Gold Stars will be worn on the cadet uniform in the semester after the cadet earned them. A Gold Star Recognition certificate is awarded to non-cadet students who meet the requirements for Gold Stars for the work of a semester. Gold Stars are not issued for the summer semester. Change of Grade Outside of the Final Grade Appeal process, a change in a final course grade will be considered only in cases of instructor error. The change of grade must �Academic Policies 27 be made within one month after the beginning of the next semester following the recordeing of the grade and must be approved by the head of the instructor's department or school and by the appropriate school dean. A grade change may not be based on work submitted after final grades have been submitted. Pass-Fail Juniors and seniors with cumulative grade-point averages of 2.00 or higher may take elective courses on a Pass-Fail option. Normally no more than one course may be taken under this option each semester, and no more than four courses taken under this option may be used to meet graduation requirements. Students may not change their decision to take a course on a Pass-Fail basis after the first two weeks of the term. Courses taken Pass-Fail carry graduation credit, but no quality points are awarded. Such courses are not included in GPA computations except in determining the First and Second Honor Graduates of the graduating cadet class. Instructors report grades as usual, “A” through “F.” The Registrar’s Office translates an “A,” “B,” or “C” as an “S” (meaning “satisfactory, credit awarded”). Grades of “D” or “F” are translated as “U” (meaning “unsatisfactory, no credit awarded”). Cadets who are taking a course under the Pass-Fail option and who wish to be considered for Dean’s List or Gold Star honors must satisfactorily complete the Pass-Fail course and must earn the appropriate GPA on 12 or more semester hours in addition to the Pass-Fail course. In determining the GPA for the position of First and Second Honor Graduates, courses taken under the Pass-Fail option will be included. Students desiring to take a course on the Pass-Fail option should contact the Registrar’s Office. Students with Documented Disabilities The Director of Services for Students with Disabilities is responsible for determining if a student has a documented disability as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act and for determining appropriate accommodations and services. Students with disabilities are encouraged to self-identify to the Director upon admission to The Citadel. If the Director determines that a disability warrants substitutions for courses required in the areas of foreign language and/or mathematics, all grades of “F” earned in previously completed courses in that discipline will be changed to “U” and will not be included in computing the student’s GPA. Grades of “A,” “B,” “C,” or “D” made by students in previously completed courses in that discipline will not be altered. Audit Status Any student who is eligible to enroll in a particular course may, with the approval of the instructor and the Registrar, audit that course for no credit. There will be no additional charge if the student is enrolled for credit in courses totaling 12 or more hours. For students taking fewer than 12 credit hours, registration fees and 100 percent of the tuition for the course will be assessed. The student may not change the decision to take the course on an audit basis rather than for credit after the first two weeks of the term. Grades will not be given for courses taken in audit status. �  28   The Citadel Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA/Grade Replacement A student may not take or repeat a course which is taught at a lower level than, or serves as a prerequisite for, a course which the student has already completed. Courses may be repeated under the following conditions: 1. No course may be repeated once a grade of “B” or higher has been earned. 2. If a course is repeated, the last grade of record is used to determine whether course requirements for graduation have been met. 3. If a previously passed course is repeated, the hours may be used only once toward meeting requirements for total hours passed. 4. When courses are repeated under the conditions described above, the original course grade may be replaced by the newer grade when calculating students’ grade-point averages (GPAs), quality hours, and earned credit hours. Both the old and new grades will appear on students’ transcripts, but only the newer grade will be used in calculating GPAs. It is the student’s responsibility to complete Grade Replacement Request forms in the Office of the Registrar in order to have the new grade replace the older grade(s). 5. The maximum number of hours for which Grade Replacement will be allowed over the course of a student’s undergraduate career is 16. If a student repeats more than 16 hours of credit, both the old and the new grade will be used to calculate the student’s grade-point average (GPA), quality hours, and earned credit hours. Grades of “S” earned when a student elects to take a course on a Pass-Fail basis may not be used to replace older grades(s). 6. For the purpose of determining graduation honors (e.g., cum laude, etc.), both the old grade and the new grade will be used in making the GPA calculation to determine honors eligibility. 7. A student is not eligible for grade replacement after he/she has completed their degree program. 8. Once grade replacement has been requested and applied, it cannot be reversed. Transfer Credits The appropriate deans or department heads have responsibility for considering all transfer courses. Normally, only courses taken at an accredited institution which are comparable in content and credit hours to specific courses offered by The Citadel and in which grades of “C-” or better have been earned will be considered for transfer. However, the appropriate dean or department head may accept for transfer to meet General Elective credits, courses that are not offered by The Citadel but which are considered to be worthy of credit as electives and in which grades of “C-” or higher have been earned. In those cases where a course has been taken in a department or school not represented at The Citadel, the dean of the school or head of the department in which the student is majoring will determine if the course in question may be accepted for General Elective credit. To ensure that courses taken away from The Citadel will be accepted for transfer, students must obtain written prior approval through the Office of the Registrar. Grades earned in courses transferred from another college will not be computed in the student’s grade-point average at The Citadel. Courses previously passed at The Citadel will not be accepted for transfer. All transcripts sent from another college to The Citadel become the property of The Citadel and cannot �Academic Policies 29 be issued to the student or a third party. Cadets who have been given Academic or Conduct Discharges from The Citadel or who leave The Citadel while their conduct status is in question may not enroll in courses at The Citadel during that period of discharge nor may they transfer back to The Citadel courses taken during that period of discharge. Cadets who have resigned in lieu of a conduct discharge will be treated as if they have committed the offense with which they have been charged and have been given the most severe consequence available for that offense. Courses these cadets may take during the period of that consequence will not be considered for transfer back to The Citadel. Cadets who have been discharged for reasons other than academic or conduct may transfer back to The Citadel no more than one semester of academic work successfully completed during the period of discharge. During the fall and spring semesters, a cadet may not take a course offered at another institution, classroom or online. Academic juniors or seniors may, in certain circumstances and with the approval of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, take one Citadel Graduate College online, undergraduate course per semester when space is available. Summer School The Citadel has summer school sessions, with online classes and face-to-face classes offered both in the day and evening. Over a summer, a student will not normally be permitted to enroll at The Citadel in, or transfer in from another accredited institution, more than 16 credit hours. As with all transfer courses, prior approval is required for transfer of summer courses taken at another accredited institution. Class Attendance Policy The cornerstone of undergraduate education is communication between the teacher and the learner, and at The Citadel, class attendance is mandatory. Students may, however, need to miss class for authorized reasons—athletic events, academic travel, special ceremonies, guard duties, military obligations, etc. Illness and personal emergencies may also cause students to be absent for legitimate reasons. Instructors should work with students in these cases to assist them in making up tests, exams, quizzes, and other work missed. Should it be necessary to miss a class for any reason, the student will, unless circumstances preclude it, notify the professor in advance and will be responsible for any material missed. Tests and labs are critically important and are scheduled well in advance. It is, therefore, imperative that these are missed only due to circumstances beyond the control of the student and that the student notify the instructor when missing a test or lab cannot be avoided. Students are notified each time they are reported absent from a class and have 72 hours to make requests to their Academic Officer for adjustments. Faculty members may correct submitted class absence data for 6 working days after the day the class meets by sending this information to the Execuitive Direc- �  30   The Citadel tor. However, the Student Affairs and Academic Services will accept no late class absence submissions from the faculty after the last day of classes each semester. Final Examinations Examinations are required at the end of each semester. Examinations will be given at the assigned time. If a faculty member has more than one section of the same course, students may, with the permission of the faculty member and providing that there is no conflict, take the final examination with another section. Since no scheduling conflicts are possible, make-up examinations should not be necessary. Any examination which is missed due to an emergency should be rescheduled after the regularly scheduled examination period but not during a Reading Period, during ESP, or on a Sunday. If rescheduling is not possible prior to the deadline for submission of final grades, the instructor should award the student an “I.” Conflicts resulting from a student’s travel arrangements do not constitute an emergency and do not justify a make-up examination. Any exception to these policies must be requested in writing by the student and concurred with by the instructor and the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. The final examination schedule is published each semester on the Citadel web page. Degrees The degree of Bachelor of Arts is conferred upon satisfactory completion of the appropriate program of study in chemistry, criminal justice, English, history, intelligence and security studies, modern languages, political science, or psychology. The Bachelor of Science degree is conferred upon satisfactory completion of the appropriate program of study in biology; chemistry; computer science; education; health, exercise, and sport science; mathematics, physics and sport management. Graduates in nursing receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing.. Graduates in accounting, finance, management, marketing and business development, or supply chain management receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. Graduates in civil engineering receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. Graduates in construction engineering receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Construction Engineering. Graduates in electrical engineering receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. Graduates in mechanical engineering receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. �Academic Policies 31 Requirements for Degree Completion Academics: A student must complete one of the major courses of study outlined in the catalog of record and must achieve a minimum grade-point average of 2.000 based on all quality hours attempted and all quality points earned at The Citadel. In addition, each student must achieve a minimum grade-point average of 2.000 based on all quality hours attempted and all quality points earned in major coursework at The Citadel. Students majoring in education or in the teaching track of health, exercise and sport science must achieve a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.750 and a grade-point average of at least 2.750 on all professional education courses; and must have on file in the Registrar’s Office at The Citadel passing scores for the appropriate PRAXIS II and Principles of Learning and Teaching (PLT) Examinations. If a student is pursuing a minor, a grade-point average of 2.000 must be achieved in all coursework completed in that minor. All students, including transfer students from other colleges, are required to earn at The Citadel a minimum of one-half the semester hours prescribed for their major course of study. The student’s school or department is responsible for ensuring that the student’s knowledge in the major is current. Cadets who have met the overall grade-point average and major coursework grade-point average requirements and who are conduct proficient but who have not completed all course requirements for graduation may take not more than two courses totaling 7 semester hours at another institution for transfer to The Citadel in order to complete major requirements. Prior approval of these courses is mandatory. ROTC: ROTC course work plays a major role in The Citadel’s mission to educate and prepare graduates to become principled leaders and is essential for students seeking to receive a commission in one of the armed forces. All cadets must satisfy an ROTC requirement (either ROTC course or fulfillment course) for every semester during which they are enrolled at The Citadel or until they have completed eight semesters or met graduation requirements. The ROTC requirement for cadets is explained below: • Every freshman and sophomore cadet (i.e., all those who are classified 4A, 4B, 3A, or 3B) must enroll in and pass an ROTC class during their freshman and sophomore years. The ROTC classes are offered by the Departments of Aerospace Studies (AERO), Military Studies (MLTY), and Naval Studies (NAVL). • Cadets who are pursuing a commission in one ROTC program and who then decide to pursue a commission in another ROTC program must have the approval of the head of the ROTC program they are leaving and the head of the ROTC program they wish to join. When cadets are changing to another ROTC, they are not, without the permission of the head of the ROTC Detachment, permitted to enroll in an ROTC class at a level lower than their academic classification. For example, a member of the sophomore class who wishes to change to another ROTC must enroll in a sophomore-level course in the new ROTC unless the head of the ROTC Detachment authorizes the enrollment in a lower-level course. �  32   The Citadel • • • Cadets who wish to move from one ROTC program to another but do not wish to pursue a commission must have the approval of the head of the ROTC department they wish to join, academic advisor, and the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. If a cadet finds that he or she is not able to register for an ROTC class or that he or she must withdraw from an ROTC class, the cadet must have the permission of the head of that ROTC Detachment (for students pursuing a commission) or the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs (for those not pursuing a commission). Failure to complete an ROTC class does not reduce the number of semesters in the ROTC requirement. Study abroad cadets will complete ROTC requirements via independent study or online. • Junior and Senior cadets (i.e., those who are classified 2A, 2B, 1A, or 1B) who wish to pursue a commission in the Armed Forces upon graduation are required to enroll in and pass an ROTC class in every semester during which they are enrolled at The Citadel or until they have completed eight semesters or met graduation requirements. • Upon the recommendation of the head of the appropriate ROTC department and with concurrence of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, training experiences may be accepted in lieu of ROTC coursework. When approved, the designated ROTC courses will be recorded on the student’s Citadel transcript as exempted military credits. • Junior and Senior cadets (i.e., those who are classified 2A, 2B, 1A, or 1B) who are not pursuing military careers will not take the traditional junior and seniorlevel ROTC courses designed for cadets who will be commissioned at graduation. These cadets will, instead, fulfill the ROTC requirement by enrolling in a 3-hour ROTC-fulfilment courses until they have completed eight semesters or met graduation requirements. This ROTC-alternative program for juniors and seniors provides a more relevant set of leadership-oriented courses/experiences for cadets who are not going into the U.S. military and allows the ROTC detachments to focus their resources on cadets who are pursuing a commission. • Non-commissioning students will be responsible for taking one ROTCfulfilment course each semester. All students are required to take LDRS 371. The remaining courses may be chosen from a wide variety of classes in the Leadership Studies minor, leadership-oriented courses in students’ major fields, and other high-impact practice courses such as internships or undergraduate research courses. Please visit the Leadership Studies Department webpage for a list of ROTC Fulfilment courses. ROTC classes (i.e., those designated AERO, MLTY, or NAVL) may not be used to satisfy elective requirements in any course of study. �Academic Policies 33 Physical Education: The required physical education program for cadets is designed to provide an exemplary environment and experiences which contribute to an improved quality of life for the student. The program offers basic instruction in adult and lifetime physical fitness, healthful living, physical activities and recreational sports which are of immediate and lasting value. Each student is required to complete RPED 260: Physical Fitness, Resiliency, and Wellness (3 cr. hours), as well as two different RPED activity courses (0 cr. hours each). Residential: Students pursuing a cadet degree must reside in the Corps of Cadets for at least six full semesters or five semesters with one semester of approved study abroad. For this policy, summer does not count as a semester. Requirements for Participation in Commencement Exercises Students who have not completed all degree requirements may participate in the May Commencement if the following conditions are met: 1. The student has earned at least a 2.000 cumulative GPA and 2.000 GPA in the major. For Education majors and Physical Education (Teaching Track) majors, the cumulative and professional education grade-point averages must be at least 2.750. 2. The student must be no more than 15 credit hours short of meeting degree requirements. 3. The student must be cleared by the Office of the Treasurer. 4. The cadet must have completed all tours and confinements and must have passed the Corps Physical Fitness Test as outlined in Chapter 5 of the White Book. 5. The cadet must have met all ROTC and RPED requirements. 6. The cadet must be eligible to complete degree requirements without returning to the Corps of Cadets since participation in commencement is the final act of a cadet. Commencement Honors Commencement Awards are restricted to those graduates who have earned and are using to satisfy graduation requirements a minimum of 90 semester hours. Annually, the Board of Visitors recognizes the two top graduates of the Corps of Cadets by presenting at Commencement the David Shingler Spell Honor Graduate Awards, honoring David Shingler Spell, Class of 1950. The First Honor Graduate receives the traditional Scholarship Medal and both the First and Second Honor Graduates receive an appropriately inscribed plaque and a stipend to be used for educational expenses at the graduate level or at the discretion of the recipient. These honors are awarded to the cadet graduates whose grade-point averages at The Citadel are highest and second highest among the graduating cadet class. In case of a tie, grades in courses taken under the Pass-Fail option are included in computing the grade-point average. In those cases where the grade-point averages are still identical, the total number of quality points earned is used to break the tie. To be eligible to graduate with honors and to be eligible for departmental honors, a student must have earned at The Citadel at least half of the semester hours required in the major course of study. �  34   The Citadel A degree summa cum laude is awarded to those students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.900-4.000. A degree magna cum laude is awarded to those students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.700-3.899. A degree cum laude is awarded to those students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.500-3.699. School/Departmental Honors are awarded on the recommendation of deans/ department heads to those students of the graduating class who have earned a gradepoint average of 3.500 or better in at least 36 hours of work in the major completed at The Citadel. Non-cadet Enrollment in ROTC Non-cadets are not permitted to enroll in ROTC classes unless they meet all the following conditions: 1. The individual must either be on active duty and on orders as a participant in a commissioning program for one of the armed services or be an enrolled veteran student. 2. The individual must be accepted as a degree-seeking student in the day program of The Citadel. 3. The individual must be enrolled as a full-time student in courses in the day program of The Citadel. 4. The individual must be provided leadership experiences outside the context of the Corps of Cadets. 5. ROTC classes will fulfill no degree requirements in a degree program of a non-cadet. 6. The individual must be in uniform while on campus. Course Load Requirements A full-time student must be enrolled throughout each semester in course work totaling at least 12 credit hours. A cadet must be a full-time student. Any cadet who drops below the 12-credit-hour minimum at any time during a semester is subject to discharge, unless there are extremely extenuating circumstances. Such circumstances must be presented in writing to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Students and their parents should be aware that carrying fewer than 12 credit hours may affect insurance coverage with some insurance companies and may also affect eligibility for financial aid. Course Overload The maximum course load (credit hours) which will be approved for either fall or spring semester is normally 22. Overloads may be requested in writing to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Course loads of up to 24 hours may be allowed in certain circumstances. But in no case will an overload of more than 24 hours of academic course work be allowed. �Academic Policies 35 Course Substitutions Course substitutions are made only when justified by extenuating circumstances. Such circumstances must be presented in writing by the student, and the requested substitution must have the support of the faculty advisor, the associate dean or department head, and the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Forms for requesting course substitutions are available in the Registrar’s Office. Combining Courses Courses may be combined to meet a maximum of one general elective requirement under the following circumstances: 1. The courses to be combined must be offered by the same department and must be related in some way. 2. The associate dean or department head of the student’s major school or department must provide a recommendation and rationale for combining the courses. 3. The Associate Provost for Academic Affairs must grant final approval for the combining of courses. Change of Academic Major Students who wish to change their major should consult with their academic advisors as well as with the associate dean or department head offering the new major. Forms for requesting a change of academic major are available in the Registrar’s Office. Pursuing a Double Major Under certian circumstances, a student may wish to pursue two different majors concurrently within the same baccalaureate degree (that is, for instance, two majors resulting in a B.A. degree, like English and History, or two majors resulting in a B.S. degree, like Computer Science and Mathematics). This will be permitted under the following conditions: 1. Students must declare their intentions to the registar no later than the fall semester of the junior year. 2. Both majors must be offered under the same baccalaureate degree. 3. Students must complete all requirements for each major. 4. Students, in addition to meeting a minimum overall grade-point average, must achieve the minimum grade-point average requirements for each major. 5. Requirements for both majors must be completed concurrently within the same grading period. Finishing one or the other major first essentially completes the degree, so the student graduates without completing the second major. A student who has met these requirements will have both majors indicated on the transcript. Pursuing a Second Baccalaureate Degree Under certain circumstances, a student may wish to pursue two different baccalaureate degrees concurrently (as, for example, a B.S. in Biology and a B.A. in Political Science.). This will be allowed under the following conditions: 1. The student must complete all requirements of each degree. �  36   The Citadel 2. The student is normally expected to complete requirements for the second degree while pursuing the initial undergraduate degree. 3. Any remaining requirements after the initial degree has been completed may be addressed in the Citadel’s summer school, in The Citadel Graduate College, or in Day Student Status. Internship Guidelines for Academic Credit Academic Internships are extensions of classroom learning, with applied experiences, in a professional field (not to be confused with a "job" or "seasonal employment"). Internships should be clearly related to career interests, major, or minor. A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.50 is required to participate in an academic internship for credit during the academic semester. Exceptions and overrides must be approved by Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Academic Policies Internships must meet criteria set by academic departments. Department standards can vary, but internships require a minimum number of hours worked per semester, typically between 90-120 hours over 16 weeks or 10-week summer session. Most departments require weekly journals, regular meetings with supervisors, and final presentations (written or oral) based on a topic related to the internship experience, and a final evaluation of performance from the site supervisor. Students may earn a maximum of a 6 hours of credit from internship courses to apply to a degree program at The Citadel and may participate in only one internship during a semester. This section describes the following procedures relating to internships: 1. 2. 3. 4. General Guidelines Policies and Procedures for Academic Internships for Credit Administrative Guidelines Special Circumstances. 1. General Guidelines to Secure Internship a. Student has secured internship independently, through The Career Center, from a referral from department advisor, or outside source that meets department internship guidelines. b. Once secured, an internship must be evaluated and approved by a departmental academic advisor to ensure it meets standards to earn academic credit. c. Student registers for internship course and completes Internship Agreement Form. d. The Internship Agreement Form should include work schedule, which must be submitted and approved through Cadet Accountability System (CAS) by the academic department. Orders are reviewed and approved/ disapproved by the Provost and Commandant’s Department. e. Special circumstances are referred to the Career Center. �Academic Policies 2. 37 Policies and Procedures for Academic Internships for Credit a. Academic internships are for credit. These typically apply for academic juniors and seniors – see department advisor for exceptions. b. Minimum 2.5 GPA, approval from academic department, and student is at a place in academic studies where department encourages internships. c. Student registers for internship course and completes Internship Agreement Form, which includes: • Student contact information • Faculty advisor contact information • Internship site information • Internship description / learning objectives • Work schedule • Leave request (approved in CAS) • Internship guidelines • Waiver of Liability & Indemnity • Final signatures d. Student is under regular and direct supervision and must adhere to The Citadel’s Honor Code. e. Student must complete all academic requirements during the semester. f. Hours may include virtual or offsite work, as long as they do not interfere with academic or leadership duties. g. Cadet internships cannot interfere with academic classes, Leadership Training, or Friday Parade. Cadets may request special leave on occasion (White Book Chapter 6) to perform professional duties which are outside of special order through TACs, who have discretion for approval/ disapproval. TAC and cadets should request Career Center assistance if there is confusion. 3. Administrative Guidelines a. Students are eligible to receive payment or a stipend for work performed if this is a standard practice in the professional setting. b. Students may not receive internship credit for previous work experience after the fact (example: a student may not participate in a summer internship and receive academic credit in the fall). c. After registration deadline has passed, student may register with permission from the academic department or Provost’s Office if he/she is able to meet requirements to earn academic credit. d. Internship may not conflict with academic coursework or Commandant’s schedule for cadets (see special circumstances). e. Students may complete up to two internships for academic credit at the discretion of the department. f. Students may register for a special topics course, in place of an internship, if a faculty advisor agrees to oversee the experience AND the special topic fulfills internship guidelines. g. Duplicate internships at the same site need to show evidence of increased responsibility or professional progression. 4. Special Circumstances �  38   The Citadel Special circumstances are handled on a case-by-case basis and are reviewed by The Citadel Career Center with referral to the appropriate campus entity. These include: • Emergent leave situations associated with a full-time offer or internship interview (which may include interviews/training prior to internship start date, but before special orders are approved by the academic department.) These may also be submitted approved by a TAC officer in Cadet Accountability System (CAS). • Leave for drug tests or background checks. • Training associated with an internship or professional full-time offer (prior to graduation, but after internship has concluded). • Participation in professional development related to an internship (documentation needed from supervisor, in writing, with company’s domain name and supervisor’s contact). • Graduate school interviews for current seniors pursuing advanced degrees. • Internship opportunities not clearly defined or does not meet traditional academic guidelines. • Academic department is not offering academic credit (student may work to find a legitimate course substitute). • Student has completed internships for academic credit, but organization requires internship extension for training and continuity for a full-time offer. • Student is not eligible to earn academic credit but needs an internship for some specific purpose related to a job offer (needs documentation). These include shadowing hours needed to maintain security clearance where hours worked do not meet minimum internship standards or internship is with a federal agency that requires anonymity (ex. FBI). Internship Special Order vs. Special Leave for Cadets Special Orders • • • • • Cadet reviews and ensures he/she meets eligibility guidelines and registers for internship course Cadet completes Internship Agreement Form which is reviewed for accuracy by (A) academic internship supervisor (B) Citadel Career Center Special orders are submitted by department internship academic advisor through CAS Orders are reviewed/approved or disapproved by both Provost’s Office and Commandant’s Department Cadet receives confirmation of special order approval through CAS/ email Special Leave • • • • Cadet is currently participating in approved internship Cadet seeks additional time to participate in professional internship related duty outside of special orders (Ex. Supervisor requests a student be present for a Friday meeting that is in direct conflict with parade) Student communicates to TAC regarding request, then submits leave request through CAS TAC may approve/disapprove without involvement from academic department or Career Center, but may request assistance from careercenter@citadel.edu as needed NOTE: SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES REFERRED TO THE CITADEL CAREER CENTER: Internships with reoccurring conflicts which may prohibit cadets from participating should be referred to careercenter@citadel.edu. Cadet will be asked to provide supervisor’s contact information and written documentation for review and referral to appropriate campus resource. �Academic Policies 39 Taking Graduate Courses Without being admitted to an accelerated Master's program, academic seniors with a cumulative Grade Point Average of at least a 3.20 may take up to twelve hours of CGC graduate credit, with no more than six hours of graduate credit in any one full semester (Fall, Spring, Summer), when space is available. These courses may provide students a head start on earning a graduate certificate or a graduate degree, but graduate courses may NOT be used to meet undergraduate degree requirements and will NOT be used to compute undergraduate GPA. Students must have the permission of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Undergraduate juniors and seniors accepted in an accelerated program at The Citadel may take and share up to twelve hours of structured graduate credit between the graduate and undergraduate majors. Refer to specific accelerated program requirements for total hours permitted to share. Academic Classifications Undergraduate students’ academic classification is based strictly on earned credit hours. The table below reflects the required number of earned credit hours for each designated academic classification. Credits Earned 0-14 15-29 30-44 45-59 60-74 75-89 90-104 105 and above Academic Classification First Semester Freshman (4A) Second Semester Freshman (4B) First Semester Sophomore (3A) Second Semester Sophomore (3B) First Semester Junior (2A) Second Semester Junior (2B) First Semester Senior (1A) Second Semester Senior (1B) Academic classification is used by the Office of Financial Aid to determine loan eligibility. Ordering and Receiving a Class Ring While any rising senior cadet may in the spring of the junior year be measured for and order a class ring, to be eligible to receive a class ring, a cadet must meet these two conditions: (1) have an academic classification of 1A and (2) have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.000. To participate in the Ring Ceremony, the cadet must (3) have passed the Corps Physical Fitness Test as outlined in Chapter 5 of the White Book. Cadets who have met academic requirements to receive the ring but have not met the Commandant’s Physical Effectiveness Requirements to participate in the Ring Presentation may pick up their rings on the Monday following Parents’ Weekend at the Holliday Alumni Center. If a cadet fails to meet requirements to receive the ring with his/her class, the Alumni Association will �  40   The Citadel normally hold the ring until the end of the following spring semester. If the cadet has not met requirements to receive the ring by that time, it will be returned to the manufacturer. The cadet may not order the ring, again, until all requirements to receive the ring have been met. The eligibility of cadets who failed to meet ring eligibility in October of their senior year will be checked again in January. Cadets who have not yet received their rings but will receive their diplomas in May or will be eligible to participate in the commencement ceremony will be cleared to receive their rings before commencement. No other cadets will be cleared to receive their rings until after commencement. These are minimum requirements and will not be waived. Students should see the Registrar to confirm eligibility. Academic Criteria for Continuance In order to be eligible to continue at The Citadel, a student must meet minimum standards for hours earned at The Citadel or properly transferred from another accredited institution and cumulative grade-point average maintained. These criteria are assessed initially after the cadet’s second semester at The Citadel and then at the end of each two-semester period. Credits earned through AP or course work taken by an entering freshman in the summer prior to initial matriculation WILL NOT be used toward meeting the minimum standard for hours earned in an academic year. Although The Citadel will notify students who are deficient in either or both areas, it is the responsibility of the student to ensure that these criteria are met. To avoid academic discharge, a student must meet both hour and GPA requirements concurrently either at the end of the fall semester, at the end of the spring semester, or in August, as appropriate. A full-time student (one carrying at least 12 credit hours each semester) must pass at least 24 semester hours in each 12-month period after initial matriculation or readmission. If a previously passed course is repeated, the hours may be used only once toward meeting requirements for hours passed. Part-time students must pass 50% of the hours attempted. Each student must maintain a minimum cumulative grade-point average as prescribed in the following table. This grade-point average is calculated as described earlier in this section. The column labeled “Total Hours” includes 1) all credits attempted for which a grade of “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “F” was received at The Citadel, 2) course work transferred from other colleges, and 3) courses taken Pass-Fail or in which the grade of “U” was earned. Total Hours Grade-Point Average (Quality Hours Plus for Continuance Transfer & Pass/Fail Hours)  0-39 40-69 70-99 on Probation 1.300 1.500 1.700 �Academic Policies 41 100 & above 1.900 This table shows the minimum academic progress a student must make to continue at the College and to avoid academic discharge. For the purpose of determining academic probation, criteria for continuance, dean’s list, gold stars, graduation, and other academic matters, the grade-point average will be computed to three decimal places. Academic Probation A student is placed on academic probation for any semester when the cumulative grade-point average based on courses taken at The Citadel fails to meet the requirements for continuance without probation as outlined in the following table. A student will be removed from academic probation after the semester in which the cumulative grade-point average meets the requirements set forth in the following table. Total Hours Grade-Point Average (Quality Hours Plus for Continuance Transfer & Pass/Fail Hours)  0-39 40-69 70-99 100 & above without Probation 1.700 1.800 1.900 2.000     Academic Discharge A cadet’s academic record will be subject to formal review for purposes of academic discharge at the end of the second semester after initial matriculation at The Citadel. During these two semesters and the summer sessions after initial matriculation, the cadet must have earned at least 24 credit hours and must at the time of review meet GPA requirements for continuance. If these requirements are not met concurrently at that time, the cadet will be discharged for academic deficiencies. Academic assessment for the purpose of academic discharge is conducted at the end of each two-semester period, and the associated summer sessions, after the student is admitted or readmitted. Under the Academic Discharge Policy, cadets may be discharged for academic deficiencies in January or in August of each year. Credits completed while a student is on academic discharge will not normally be accepted for transfer to The Citadel. Exceptions to this policy must have the approval of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Summer session work cannot make students ineligible to enroll in the following fall semester, if they were eligible for enrollment at the end of the previous spring semester. Minimum grade-point averages for the various categories are as shown in the previous sections; however, the minimum GPA required will not be raised as a result of summer school work. That is, students moving from one category to the next higher category as a result of credit hours earned in summer school at The Citadel or elsewhere will be required to meet the GPA minimum of the lower category of credit hours for continuance in the following fall term. �  42   The Citadel Students who voluntarily withdraw at times other than January or August or who are discharged for other than academic reasons will have their academic status assessed upon application for readmission. Cadets may also be discharged for violating The Citadel’s class attendance policy. When the number of unexcused absences reaches 5, the student and his or her parents will be issued a warning by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs that continued disregard of the academic policy requiring class attendance will result in an academic discharge from the College. If the number of unexcused absences reaches 10, the student will be permitted to complete the current semester, but will be academically discharged from the College for the following semester. Cadets who accumulate 10 or more unexcused absences in their final semester and who would otherwise be eligible to participate in commencement will not be permitted to do so. In all other circumstances, cadets who accumulate 10 or more unexcused absences will be awarded an academic discharge for the following semester. Readmission A student who is discharged for academic reasons for the first time may apply for readmission after being out of school for one semester. Summer school does not constitute a semester in this instance. Students who are discharged for academic or disciplinary reasons may not, during the period of discharge, take courses for transfer to The Citadel. The deadline for the receipt of an application for readmission for Maymester and summer School is March 1st, for the spring term is October 1st, and for the fall term is June 1st. When a student applies for readmission to The Citadel, his/her catalog year of record will be reviewed by the Registrar’s Office and the Associate Provost. The student will then be assigned a catalog year which most appropriately fits their coursework. In addition to any specific readmission requirements stated at the time of discharge, applicants for readmission to the South Carolina Corps of Cadets must meet the personal and physical fitness requirements for current cadets (see updated Application for Readmission on the Registrar’s website). These include the following: a. Applicants for readmission must meet the U.S. Army standard for height and weight (Army Reg 600-9) and must be physically qualified as determined by the Citadel Surgeon. Applicants who fail to meet the height/weight standards can gain readmission by meeting the Citadel body-fat standard. Height/weight and body-fat standards for current cadets are detailed in the White Book, Chapter 5. These standards are more stringent than those for initial applicants. b. Applicants for readmission may not be married nor have childcare responsibility for any minor child related to him or her by blood or marriage. c. Applicants must not have a record of conviction of a criminal offense showing poor moral character. d. Applicants for readmission must be less than 26 years old on the first day of classes in the semester of their readmission. Applicants for readmission �Academic Policies 43 who have not completed their fourth-class system requirements must be less than 23 years old on the first day of classes in the semester of their readmission. If approved for readmission after an academic discharge, the student will be readmitted on academic probation. Cadets who have been approved for readmission may or may not be assigned to their former cadet company. Second Academic Discharge A student who fails for a second time to meet minimum academic criteria for continuance will be awarded a Second Academic Discharge. The Associate Provost for Academic Affairs will review the academic record and any extenuating circumstances the student wishes to present in writing. Based on this review and in consultation with the faculty advisor and the department head or Associate Dean, the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs will determine the conditions under which the student may be considered for readmission after a second academic discharge. “Academic Forgiveness” or “Fresh Start” Policy Any undergraduate student who has been separated from The Citadel for 48 or more consecutive months is eligible to apply for Academic Forgiveness. Upon readmission, a student seeking to apply for Academic Forgiveness must first complete 24 hours at The Citadel with a grade-point average (GPA) of 2.0 or higher on those 24 hours in order to apply for Academic Forgiveness. To apply for Academic Forgiveness, a readmitted student who has met the minimum GPA requirement on 24 hours must make a formal written request for an academic “fresh start” and must meet in person with the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs to discuss that application. If a student is granted Academic Forgiveness, then all previous coursework completed at The Citadel will be treated as transfer credit (i.e., as pass/fail coursework) for the purpose of computing the student’s cumulative Citadel GPA and the student’s Major GPA; in addition, courses which the student previously passed at The Citadel with a grade of “D” will continue to be counted in the student’s total earned hours and will not have to be repeated. All previous grades will remain on the student’s permanent record, but they will not be computed in the student’s GPA. The transcript will contain this notation: “Academic Forgiveness was granted as of (date of readmission); grades earned at The Citadel prior to this date are not included in this student’s GPA calculation.” Students who have been granted Academic Forgiveness will not be eligible to receive graduation honors (e.g., cum laude, etc.). Conduct Discharge Cadets who have been suspended or dismissed or who leave the College with a disciplinary board pending are not eligible to attend any undergraduate class at The Citadel—day, evening, or summer—or to transfer credits back to The Citadel for any courses taken during the period of discharge. �  44   The Citadel Cadets Called to Active Duty When Cadets are called to Active Duty, it is the policy of The Citadel to minimize the academic and financial impacts of being required to interrupt their studies. When the cadet learns that call to active duty is likely, he/she notifies the Office of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs and his/her Tactical Officer. Financial If the cadet and his/her instructors feel that completing courses in which he/she is currently enrolled is not a reasonable expectation, the cadet is awarded the grade of “W” in each course and is provided a full refund less room and board used and OneCard charges. When the cadet elects not to withdraw from all courses, refunds of tuition and fees are prorated based on a per-credit-hour rate and the number of credits the cadet and his/her faculty members believe he/she will be able to complete. Academic When the date of required departure from The Citadel becomes fixed, the cadet works with his/her instructors to determine if it is reasonable to complete courses after departing on active duty or delaying completion until the cadet returns to The Citadel. In this effort, the instructor is not expected to modify the expectations or assignments of the course, but to help the student determine if it is feasible to continue to work on, and ultimately complete, course requirements after leaving The Citadel. In some cases, the date of departure is sufficiently late in the semester that final course assignments and the final exam can be completed before the cadet leaves campus. This, however, will likely be the exception rather than the rule, and faculty members are not expected to “force” early course completion. When the faculty member and the student feel that it is not reasonable to complete requirements in a particular course, the student is withdrawn from that course with the grade of “W.” When the faculty member and student feel that requirements in a particular course can be completed by the student through independent study, the grade of “I” is given until course requirements are met. If at any time the faculty member and/or the student feel that completing the course is no longer a reasonable expectation, the student is given the grade of “W” in that course. Civilian Students in Cadet Classes With the exceptions of Day Students, Returning Veteran Cadets, no civilian students are permitted to take classes with the Corps of Cadets. These three student categories are defined below. Fifth Year Student Status Cadets will normally remain in the Corps of Cadets until degree requirements have been met. Cadets who have completed eight semesters in the Corps of Cadets, all ROTC requirements, all LDRS course requirements, and all RPED course requirements and who have been cleared by the Commandant and the Treasurer may apply for Fifth Year Student status through the Office of the Registrar. Cadets who request Fifth Year Student status with the desire to participate in �Academic Policies 45 the Long Gray Line Parade and Corps of Cadets graduation ceremony must be certified as proficient in all pillars prior to becoming a Fifth Year Student. This is evaluated at the time of the cadet’s application by the Office of the Commandant. If Fifth Year Student status is approved, the student must live off campus and may attend day classes with the Corps of Cadets or evening undergraduate classes. While on campus in Fifth Year Student status, students will wear civilian clothes, but their attire is expected to be compatible with the military environment established by the uniformed Corps of Cadets. To satisfy the Commandant’s requirements for participating in the commencement ceremony, cadets in Day Student status must meet with the Commandant’s Sergeant Major no later than the Wednesday of commencement week and review all expectations. These include an inspection of all uniforms related to graduation and Height/Weight screening if necessary. For Fifth Year Students, the following specific dress code is in force: 1. Regulations pertaining to body piercing and tattoos are the same as those for the members of the Corps of Cadets. 2. A broken uniform is unattractive anywhere, but it is especially unsuited for a military college campus or classroom. Portions of cadet uniforms are not, therefore, to be worn by non-cadets. 3. Hair will be neatly trimmed and styled; as will mustaches and sideburns if they are worn. Men will be permitted to wear beards only when required to do so for medical reasons, which must be explained in writing by a physician and submitted to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. 4. Students will wear business attire when attending formal occasions when the members of the Corps of Cadets are required to appear in full dress or white uniform. 5. Any student who is not in compliance with minimum standards for personal appearance will be required to leave campus until discrepancies are corrected. Repeated offences may result in discharge from the College. Veteran Students Policy 1. All veteran students must declare either the day/cadet or Evening Undergraduate College Transfer Program when they begin taking classes at The Citadel. Veterans who declare themselves day students must follow the South Carolina Corps of Cadets general education requirements and attend the day program commencement ceremony. Veterans who declare their status as evening students must meet Evening Undergraduate Studies �  46   The Citadel general education requirements and attend the Citadel Graduate College commencement exercises. 2. Veterans may change their official student status once in their time as a student at The Citadel. Exceptions to this rule must be approved by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. 3. Veteran students may enroll in day or evening classes. Veteran Cadet Program Effective with the fall 2008 semester, cadets who have begun their pursuit of the cadet degree and have elected to pursue or have been called to active military service will be provided the following options if their tour on active duty was not for training purposes and they have been discharged honorably with full rights and privileges of a veteran. Option 1. If they are eligible, they may return to the Corps of Cadets to continue to pursue the cadet degree. Option 2. They may enroll as civilian students in classes with the Corps of Cadets to pursue a non-cadet degree with non-cadet diploma and ring (the same diploma and ring available for current Active Duty Students and students in The Citadel Graduate College.) Eligibility Criteria • must have been sworn into the Corps of Cadets at The Citadel • must have been honorably discharged from active duty with the full rights and privileges of a veteran • must meet academic and disciplinary criteria for readmission to The Citadel Students electing this option • may enroll in civilian status in classes with the Corps of Cadets • may enroll in evening classes in The Citadel Graduate College • are eligible to earn the non-cadet degree/diploma and receive the noncadet ring currently awarded to Active Duty students and students in The Citadel Graduate College • may not return to the Corps of Cadets but will be allowed to participate in Cadet Commencement in cap and gown.  At its 14 June 2008 meeting, the Board of Visitors approved the pursuit of the Cadet Degree, Diploma, and Ring through the Veteran Cadet Program under the following conditions: 1. The former cadet has received while on active duty and in combat an injury that precludes readmission to the Corps of Cadets; or 2. The former cadet has served at least four semesters in the Corps of Cadets prior to moving to Veteran Cadet status. Former cadets who are approved to pursue the Cadet Degree in Veteran Cadet status will be awarded credit for appropriate ROTC courses 301, 302, 401, and 402 based on their active duty service, and requirements to complete two RPED activity courses, and LDRS courses will be waived. Through these options, The Citadel is attempting to address the needs of those students who have formally joined the Corps of Cadets but prior to completing the cadet degree have been called to active duty or have elected to serve on ac- �Academic Policies 47 tive duty that ends with an honorable discharge as a veteran. Non-Cadet Veteran Day Program An eligible non-cadet veteran is defined to be an individual who provides evidence through a Department of Defense Form DD 214 of honorable discharge from one of the Armed Services indicating a minimum of 90 consecutive days of full-time federal active service, other than active duty for training. If a veteran has been discharged more than once, all discharges must be honorable. Academic Requirements: Veteran applicants are civilians and will not be subject to academic requirements specific to the Corps of Cadets. The curricular requirements pertaining only to members of the Corps are described on pages 105-107 of this catalog. Student Academic Grievances The academic grievance process of the college is reserved for the most serious alleged offenses. These matters deal not with differences of opinion, but with violations of due process; denial of individual rights; or unequal treatment or discrimination based on sex, race, color, or national origin. Students who feel that they have an academic grievance are directed first to confer with the instructor or other individual(s) involved. Where this does not result in satisfaction or if this step is not feasible, the student should present the grievance in writing to the lowest appropriate level not involved in the grievance, department head or associate dean. If the matter remains unresolved, the student may present the grievance and the attempted solution in writing to the appropriate dean. If deemed appropriate, the dean may appoint a review committee consisting of three faculty members, with one designated as chair and a student in good standing from the same student category as the grieving student. This committee shall have the authority to interview individuals who may have information pertaining to the grievance and to request records and materials pertaining to the grievance. In a grievance procedure, all employees and students are obligated to provide requested information to the dean/associate dean/department head, or review committee. The committee shall forward its findings and recommendations to the convening dean who shall decide the case. The student may appeal that decision to the Provost who has the authority to settle all student grievances. English Fluency Policy In accordance with the laws of South Carolina, The Citadel ensures the English fluency of its teaching faculty through a two-stage review process. 1. During the interview process, each applicant will make an oral presentation before a group consisting of faculty members and students. Using the included form, each participant will evaluate the candidate’s English fluency and clarity of presentation. These evaluations will be a major factor �  48   The Citadel in the selection process, and should a candidate who is ultimately selected be deemed by this evaluation to have a language problem, the extent of this problem, the support to be provided the candidate by the College in addressing this problem, and the expectations for improvement in English fluency will all be clearly stated in the offer of employment. 2. Should the English fluency of a member of the faculty be challenged by a student, standard procedures for student academic grievances as described above will be followed. If a review committee is called for, the native language of one of the faculty members will not be English. Ownership of Intellectual Property Preamble The Citadel has among its primary purposes teaching, research, and the expansion and dissemination of knowledge. Products of these endeavors include the development and use of intellectual property. It is the policy of the College that its faculty, staff, and students carry out their scholarly work in an open and free atmosphere that encourages publication and creation of such works without constraint but consistent with applicable laws and College policy. This policy will be in accord with the guidelines and criteria published in The American Association of University Professors’ “Statement of Copyright” (Policy Documents and Reports. Ninth Edition, 2001, or subsequent editions). Definitions Directed Works are defined as those specifically funded or created at the direction of the College, and which may or may not include exceptional use of College resources. They are distinguished from non-directed works, which are pedagogical, scholarly, literary, or aesthetic works resulting from non-directed effort. Exceptional Use of College Resources is defined as the provision of resources or support by the College for the creation of a work that is of a degree or nature not routinely made available to College employees. Sabbatical leaves, faculty research grants, and faculty development grants awarded by the College upon the recommendation of the Research, Faculty Development, or Sabbaticals Committees, although competitive, are routinely available to the faculty and are therefore deemed non-exceptional unless specifically designated otherwise by agreement between the originator and the Provost. Policy Ownership of intellectual property will reside with the originator, whether a member of the faculty, a member of the staff, or a student, unless: (a) the property is created at the specific direction of the College; or (b) the originator has made exceptional use of College resources in creating it. At the time when the work is directed by the College or at the time when the College makes exceptional resources available to the originator of intellectual property, the Provost and the originator will together determine ownership and will negotiate a written agreement concerning that property. These determinations will be made on a case-by-case basis. Confidentiality of Student Records �Academic Policies 49 The Citadel complies with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), which affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. These rights include: (1) The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day The Citadel receives a request for access. A student should submit to the registrar, dean, head of the academic department, or other appropriate official, a written request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect. The Citadel official will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the Citadel official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed. (2) The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes are inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student’s privacy rights under FERPA. A student who wishes to ask The Citadel to amend a record should write the official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record the student wants changed, and specify why it should be changed. If The Citadel decides not to amend the record as requested, The Citadel will notify the student in writing of the decision and the student’s right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. (3) The right to provide written consent before The Citadel discloses personally identifiable information from the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. The Citadel discloses education records without a student’s prior written consent under the FERPA exception for disclosure to “school officials” with “legitimate educational interests.” A school official has a “legitimate educational interest” if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibilities for The Citadel. A “school official” is a person employed by The Citadel in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff), or a person or company with whom The Citadel has contracted as its agent to provide a service instead of using Citadel employees or officials (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent). At The Citadel, “school officials” include the Board of Visitors; the faculty; and personnel in the Offices of the President, Provost and Dean of the College, Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, Associate Provost and Dean of The Citadel Graduate College, Registrar, Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs, Director of Athletics, Director of Admissions, and Commandant. In addition, the Provost (for academic records) and the Commandant of Cadets (for disciplinary records) may give specific cadets, by virtue of their cadet duty position, limited access to the educational records of other cadets. These cadets must first attend a FERPA briefing and sign a Statement of Understanding before being provided access to other students’ educational records. The Citadel may also disclose appropriately designated “directory information” without written consent, unless a student has advised The Citadel to the contrary. “Directory information” is information that is generally not considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if released. Directory information includes student name, �  50   The Citadel local and permanent address and telephone number, e-mail address, photograph, date and place of birth, major field of study, class schedule, full or part-time status, Dean’s List and Gold Star List, ROTC branch, dates of acceptance and attendance, years in school, anticipated date of graduation, degrees and awards received, graduation honors, academic and military awards, the most recent previous educational agency or institution attended by the student, cadet company and rank, duty status, class absence status, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, U.S. citizenship, extracurricular activities, and residency status. The Citadel may disclose directory information to parents, the public, and outside organizations without prior written consent. Outside organizations include, but are not limited to, companies that manufacture class rings or publish yearbooks. Students who do not wish to have directory information published must notify the Registrar within two weeks of the beginning of the fall semester each academic year. Requests to keep directory information confidential are valid only for the year in which they are made. The Citadel will disclose to the alleged victim of any crime of violence the final results of any student disciplinary proceeding conducted by The Citadel against the alleged perpetrator of such crime. Both the accuser and the accused will be informed of the final outcome of any Citadel disciplinary proceeding based on an alleged sex offense. The Citadel may also disclose to parents, without a student’s consent, alcohol or drug violations of either the College’s policies or local laws by students under 21 years of age. The Citadel will also disclose, to the court, information from a student’s file if that student or the student’s parent has initiated legal action against the institution or if the institution has initiated legal action against the parent or student. (4) The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by The Citadel to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is: Family Policy Compliance Office U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue, SW U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20202-5901 A copy of the “Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act,” as amended, and details of The Citadel policy on maintaining and disclosing student records may be obtained from the Office of the General Counsel. �Student Support Programs 51 STUDENT SUPPORT PROGRAMS, SERVICES, AND ACTIVITIES The student support programs, services, and activities offered by The Citadel complement and support students’ academic development by . . . . . . promoting discipline, responsibility, character development, and self    confidence; . . . equipping students with skills necessary for academic success; . . . developing leadership skills; . . . enhancing ethical development; . . . increasing cultural awareness and the appreciation of diversity; . . . encouraging students to become responsible professionals in their     chosen fields; and . . . providing activities that promote personal health and physical fitness.

Resource materials including videos, study guides, and directories, are available for use by cadet companies, classroom instructors, and clubs and organizations. Religious Activities College years are exciting times of growth and challenge, which includes a student’s faith journey. All people have faith in something, whether it is religious, philosophical ideas, or personal ethical beliefs. The Citadel’s Chaplain, �  58   The Citadel who also serves as the Director of Religious Activities, is committed to helping every student grow regardless of their faith background. The Chaplain works to ensure all members of the Citadel Community have access to practice the free exercise of religion, is available for 100% confidential counseling, and runs a hospitality ministry available to all students. The Citadel Chaplain works closely with a variety of volunteer minsters and the Regimental and Battalion Cadet Chaplains to provide for the needs of the Corps. The the college is fortunate to have twenty-three volunteer campus pastors or ministry directors representing Catholic, Orthodox, Jewish, Muslim and Protestant denominations and Para-Church ministries. These leaders work together to maintain a strong faith foundation for the ethical and moral pillar, one of the four pillars in The Citadel’s whole person concept. Faith group meetings are held each Monday and Thursday evening for study, fellowship, and worship. Attendance at all chapel or campus religious activities is optional. Denominational Faith Groups: African Methodist Episcopal Alpha Christian Ministries Anglican Baptist Collegiate Ministry Bible Study Fellowship Campus Outreach Catholic Campus Ministry Charleston Wesley Foundation (United Methodist) Episcopal (TEC) Fellowship of Christian Athletes Jewish Student Union Latter-Day Saints Lutheran Student Movement Muslim Student Association The Navigators Officer’s Christian Fellowship Orthodox Christian Fellowship Presbyterian Journey: (PCUSA) Reformed Campus Fellowship VALOR (Campus Crusade for Christ Military Ministry) Young Life Campus Worship Built in 1936, Summerall Chapel has held a special place in the life of the Corps of Cadets since its dedication. For for many of our cadets, it is a sanctuary, a safe haven away from the constraints and stresses of cadet life. Of course, it is also a place of worship for many in our community. Throughout the school year, there are weekly Protestant and Catholic services of worship on Sundays, and an Anglican worship service on Monday evenings. Cadets �Student Support Programs 59 provide dynamic vibrant leadership in all of these services. Finally, it is for all who enter a place of prayer. It’s not uncommon throughout the week to find staff and faculty sitting in prayer. The inscription on Summerall Chapel, “Remember Now Thy Creator in the Days of Thy Youth” (Ecclesiastes 12:1), embodies the focus of ministry at the chapel and its importance to cadets who need a source of strength beyond themselves. Citadel Chapel Choirs Three cadet chapel choirs enhance services of worship on campus. They are the Catholic Chapel Choir, the Interdenominational Protestant Choir and Gospel Choir. These three choirs combine for special events each year such as Parents’ Day, Homecoming Sunday, the Christmas Candlelight Services, and Corps Anniversary Sunday. Greater Issues Series The Greater Issues Series presents two or more major addresses each academic year. In 1954, the series was inaugurated by General Mark Clark to enhance the preparation of Citadel cadets for roles as responsible members of our society. Since then, these addresses have brought to The Citadel an impressive group of distinguished speakers including Presidents of the United States, American and foreign dignitaries, scholars, diplomats, important military figures, and business leaders. Fine Arts Series Inaugurated in 1965, the Fine Arts Series has presented annually a wide variety of programs which have been both entertaining and culturally illuminating. All fourth-class and third-class cadets are encouraged to attend one approved fine arts performance each semester. Musical Organizations The Citadel Regimental Band and Pipes provides music for concerts, parades, reviews, and other official ceremonies both on and off campus. Music for basketball games is provided by The Citadel Pep Band, a group of members from within the Regimental Band. Academic Publications Founded in the spring of 1993, El Cid is the publication of The Citadel’s Tau Iota Chapter of Sigma Delta Pi, the National Collegiate Hispanic Honor Society. This publication is a refereed journal in Spanish that publishes select undergraduate and graduate creative writing. Only members of Tau Iota may be selected for the editorial team. The Gold Star Journal, The Scholarly Journal of the Corps of Cadets and Citadel Graduate College, publishes nonfiction papers from any discipline. This journal is produced by a staff of cadets for Corps Day. The Journal of the Scipio Africanus Society is published annually by a staff of cadets and serves as an outlet for cadet independent research in international affairs. �  60   The Citadel The Shako documents the literary and artistic achievements of Citadel cadets and graduate students. All submissions are compiled, edited and published annually by cadets for distribution throughout the Citadel community. The Honor System The Cadet Honor System provides a unique contribution to the overall developmental process of the Citadel Experience. As an integral part of Corps life, its purpose is to promote ethical growth and inculcate a sense of integrity in Citadel graduates so that they instinctively conduct themselves in an honorable manner. The Honor Code states that a “cadet does not lie, cheat, or steal, nor tolerate those who do.” The code is enforced and supervised by a Cadet Honor Committee composed of First Class cadets who are elected in the fall of their junior year by the Fourth, Third, and Second Class cadets within their companies. These Honor Committee representatives are responsible for educating and assisting their fellow cadets on the Honor System and interpreting the honor code. When a cadet is reported for an honor violation, the circumstances are thoroughly investigated by members of the Honor Committee. If there is a prima facie case established against the cadet, he or she appears before an Honor Court composed of 10 members of the Honor Committee. A cadet accused of an honor violation is entitled to cadet counsel, and cross examination is allowed. A finding that a cadet has committed an honor violation requires a unanimous secret vote by the Honor Court. If a cadet is found to have committed an honor violation, and if the President confirms the Honor Court’s decision, the cadet is expelled from the Corps of Cadets. Under rare circumstances, the cadet may be granted leniency from the punishment of expulsion. The Honor Committee is responsible directly to the President of the college. A faculty advisor assists the Honor Committee. This officer provides guidance to the Honor Committee and acts in an advisory capacity to the court at each Honor Court trial. Department of Experiential Learning and Cadet Activities This department, with offices located in Mark Clark Hall, provides activities and services for cadets to develop outside the classroom that allow them to broaden their talents and interests. Major activity areas include publications, events, student leadership experiential learning opportunities, monthly blood drives, clubs and organizations. The department offers services to cadets, as well, such as the Ride-Drive Program, social media pages, and community service opportunities. Cadet Activities Publications The Brigadier newspaper is designed and laid out by cadets. The newspaper is delivered in an online format with print copies available for special editions. The Sphinx yearbook is the college yearbook of The Citadel. It is published annually in the spring by a staff of cadets. This publication serves as a semiofficial record of the cadets’ year. The cost of this publication is incorporated into the spring semester tuition. The Guidon, the handbook for the fourth class cadets, is published annually �Student Support Programs 61 and is available online in early summer for the incoming freshmen. On Matriculation Day, each incoming cadet will receive a hard copy. This book contains a complete description of the activities of the Corps of Cadets, Citadel history, customs and courtesies, and duties and responsibilities of fourth class cadets. Clubs, Groups and Organizations Membership in a wide variety of clubs, groups and organizations is available to all Citadel students. All 100+ clubs fall under the four pillars of The Citadel: Academic, Military, Character and Physical. Among these are discussion groups, professional societies, military groups, athletic clubs and religious groups. The span of these activities is so broad and so varied that all Citadel students should be able to find organizations that fit their interests and talents. Intramural, Club and Recreational Athletics (ICRA) The purpose of the ICRA program is to provide and promote safe and healthful means for competition, exercise, physical fitness and recreational pursuits for students, faculty and staff. ICRA is a division of the Department of Health and Human Performance (HHP). Intramural Athletics Citadel Intramurals are an integral part of cadet life with year-long competitive activities in individual sports and cadet company team sports. Cadet companies compete annually for the Board of Visitors Trophy, awarded to the Commanding Officer of the company accumulating the most intramural points. Club Sports Citadel Club Sports provides structure for student-run competitive sport teams not governed by the NCAA or Southern Conference, and other sports-related activities that may not be fully supported by the academics of HHP or events of Citadel Intramurals. Club Sport athletes are not part of Corps Squad. Physical Recreation The primary purpose of Deas Hall is to provide instructional support for students in the Department of Health and Human Performance (HHP), and to support activities of Intramural Athletics and Club Sports. Deas Hall is otherwise available to all students, faculty and staff. More information can be found at: www.citadel.edu/icra. Health Services The Citadel Infirmary provides acute care services for cadets in the South Carolina Corps of Cadets. These services include outpatient medical clinics on weekdays, a walk-in nurse clinic after hours and on weekends, and round-theclock inpatient care (36 beds) during the academic year. In the summer, limited out- patient services are provided for cadets enrolled in summer programs. Inpatient services resume on 1 July. The Infirmary staff includes a primary-care physician, a family nurse practitioner, a part-time orthopedic surgeon, staff nurses, nurse aides, an admin- �  62   The Citadel istrative assistant, and a receptionist. Certified athletic trainers conduct daily Sports Medicine clinics in the Infirmary to evaluate and treat orthopedic injuries. More serious injuries are referred to the Orthopedic Clinic (Monday and Friday mornings). Athletic trainers also provide coverage for intramural and intercollegiate athletics, on-campus military training, and club sports activities. Infirmary services are covered by the cadet Infirmary fee. A small inpatient charge is added for daytime and overnight admissions. Supplemental services such as immunizations, medications, lab work, X-Rays, and ECGs are provided for cadets at our cost and are applied to the cadet’s OneCard Restricted Account. Prescriptions for medications not administered by the Infirmary are delivered by a local pharmacy which bills the cadet’s insurance or charges the cadet’s OneCard account. If desired, the Infirmary secretary can provide an itemized list of Infirmary charges for parents to file for insurance reimbursement. The Infirmary is not staffed to file insurance claims. Cadets are required to carry student health insurance for all semesters they are present on campus. Student insurance is mandatory to defray the costs of hospitalization, emergency care, ambulance transportation, and/or specialty medical and surgical care. Charges for services not provided by the Infirmary must be settled directly with the medical provider. Cadets are required to notify the Infirmary immediately of any changes in insurance coverage. The Citadel does not have contracts with any off-campus hospitals, urgentcare centers, pharmacies, or medical/surgical/dental providers. In the event of an emergency, two large medical centers are located within two miles of the campus and EMS ambulances are on call 24/7 for transport. For more information on insurance, please visit the website:http://www.citadel.edu/root/infirmaryincoming-students/insurance-info. Department of Public Safety The mission of the Department of Public Safety is to “ensure the safety and security of all persons and property on The Citadel campus.” Public safety officers are state-commissioned law enforcement officers operating under the authority of the State Law Enforcement Division (SLED) with jurisdiction both on and off campus for incidents occurring on Citadel property. The Department of Public Safety is also responsible for enforcing campus parking regulations. Campus police may be reached at 953-5114. In an emergency, dial 811 from any campus phone. Employment The time of a cadet at The Citadel is filled with duties and obligations; however, there is opportunity for campus employment for cadets who believe �Student Support Programs 63 they can manage the extra responsibility. The College offers a limited number of part-time positions with various campus activities as well as work-study jobs which are available to students with financial need. Employment is designed to provide for a modest portion of college expenses. Cadet Facilities Mark Clark Hall Mark Clark Hall is named after General Mark W. Clark who served as president of The Citadel from 1954-1965. The campus post office, barber shop, a convenience store, a lounge for upper class cadets, and a Barnes & Noble bookstore are located on the first floor. Buyer auditorium, the Greater Issues Room, a lounge for fourth class cadets, and the offices of the Department of Experiential Learning and Cadet Activities are found on the second floor. The Honor Courtroom is located on the third floor, as are the offices of the Catholic Chaplain, the Episcopal Chaplain, and the campus photography department. Beach House The Colonel Robert R. McCormick Beach Club of The Citadel is located oceanfront on the Isle of Palms, about a half hour’s drive from the campus. The five-acre property includes a two-story beach house, the Blue & Grey Pavilion, a sand volleyball and basketball court, and shower and locker facilities. Beach access and parking are available to cadets, students, faculty, staff, Citadel Alumni Association Lifetime Members, and annual donors to The Citadel Foundation or The Citadel Brigadier Foundation above specific levels. Additionally, the venue may be rented for daytime or evening events through the Office of Event Management. Swain Boating Center The Swain Boating Center membership is available to students, faculty, and staff. Preference is given to students in the use of the center’s facilities. The club fleet consists of canoes, small sailboats, and outboard motorboats.the Swain Boating Center facilities consist of a clubhouse, dockage, marine railway, sail loft, and work area for maintenance and repair of small boats. Storage of privately owned boats is available for a small fee. �Military Policies General The Citadel is justly proud of its military training program which contributes significantly to the State of South Carolina and the nation in the form of military and civilian leadership. The Citadel is one of six senior Military Colleges remaining in the country. Citadel graduates are adding to the rich heritage of their alma mater as officers in the armed forces and as leaders in the state and nation. The ROTC training at The Citadel is conducted by active duty commissioned and noncommissioned officers of the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, and U.S. Marine Corps. These active duty military personnel are organized into the Department of Military Science, the Department of Naval Science, and the Department of Aerospace Studies. Cadets are encouraged to seek a commission in one of the armed force services; however, they are not required to accept a commission. Commandant of Cadets The Commandant of Cadets oversees the military aspect of all cadet life. Along with the Chief of Staff, the Assistant Commandant for Discipline, the Assistant Commandant of Operations and Training, the Assistant Commandant for Leadership Programs, the Commandant’s Sergeant Major, and his Special Staff, the Commandant designs, plans, and executes various leadership programs and activities for the Corps of Cadets. All cadet discipline, privileges, leaves, and special recognitions are managed inside this department. The Commandant and his team of TAC (Teach, Advise, Coach) Officers exercise the implementation of all Citadel policies as well as Cadet Regulations in their supervision of life in the barracks, through the teaching, advising, and coaching of all cadets. As a senior college Vice President, the Commandant is in continuous communication with the College President on all matters pertaining to the administration, conduct, training, and discipline of the Corps of Cadets. Discipline As a military college, The Citadel sets high standards of conduct and discipline. By instruction and example, cadets are taught to be neat in person and in uniform. Daily inspections of rooms ensure cleanliness and good order. Through individual personal contact, group meetings, and training, cadets are encouraged to uphold the traditions of The Citadel and the standards of honor, duty, and respect which are the core values of the college. A cadet who commits an act off-campus that reflects adversely on The Citadel or the Corps of Cadets may be punished as if the act had been committed on-campus should the alleged misconduct violate the cadet disciplinary code in the following manner: • potentially endangers the health, safety, or welfare of members of the campus community, or • potentially places college property at risk of damage, loss, or destruction, or �Military Policies 65 • occurs at a time when the cadet represents the College in an off-campus activity, or • involves conduct that charges one or more of the following: a felony act; a crime of moral turpitude; an act of violence; an act that involves the possession, use, or sale of an illegal drug or alcohol; or, an act involving racial or sexual harassment, sexual assault, or results in the student being found guilty in a court of law or the student declines to contest such charges although not admitting guilt (e.g. no contest or nolo contendere). During periods of furlough, the cadet disciplinary system may apply if the conduct meets these criteria. Leadership Leadership, initiative, and character are developed by placing cadets in positions of responsibility within the Corps of Cadets. In addition, all cadets are engaged in the Leadership Training Program which covers a wide range of topics to develop problem-solving techniques and expand general knowledge in real-life situations. These value-added sessions are conducted in classroom and practicum environments. All cadets live in the barracks. From reveille to taps, every hour of the cadet’s time is programmed. Regular habits of study and living, attention to duty, obedience to authority, and appreciation for order are considered among the most valuable features of The Citadel education. While some graduates enter the military profession, thousands in all walks of civilian life attest to the high value of the training received at this institution. The daily routine is regulated by the Corps of Cadets Training Schedule and the Commandant’s Yearly Training Plan and supported by the Cadet Regulations which include the Blue Book and the White Book. Commandants Classification of Cadets In terms of policies and procedures inside the Commandant's Department, cadets are classified according to the number of years they have been a cadet: C1 represents a freshman in his/her first year C2 represents a cadet in his/her second year C3 represents a cadet in his/her third year C4/5 represents a cadet in his/her fourth/fifth year These classifications have NO RELATIONSHIP to Academic Status. Allowances of Demerits Cadets who accumulate more than 20 demerits per month in their senior year, 22 per month in their junior year, 25 per month in their sophomore year, or 30 per month in their freshman year, will be declared conduct deficient. Cadets repeating any part of the fourth class year are allowed only 25 demerits per month. Conduct deficient cadets are not allowed to take normal leaves or passes and are required to serve one hour of punishment for each demerit over the specified limit. Any cadet exceeding the allowed limit of demerits or other punishments may be discharged. �  66   The Citadel Clothing/Luggage All cadets are required to furnish their own sheets, pillows, and pillow cases. A bedspread and blanket will be issued to each cadet when they arrive. Beds and mattresses are provided by the College. Lists of required and suggested items for freshmen to bring can be found on The Citadel webpage inside the Fourth Class Success Packet. It is imperative that items be purchased prior to arrival. Training begins immediately and there is no time provided to acquire anything missing. Policies require graduating seniors to retrieve their stored items no later than 15 days following commencement. After that time items will be removed and donated to local charity. It is not the responisbility of warehouse personnel to notify cadets having stored items. Cadets are advised to bring inexpensive trunks and suitcases. Luggage must be stored in the Central Warehouse Facility on campus. Only one overnight bag for weekend or athletic trips may be kept in a cadet’s room. On a limited basis, excess luggage may be stored in the Central Supply Facility at the risk of the owner. Luggage and boxes of supplies may be shipped to The Citadel in advance. They should be sent by commercial transportation and clearly identified with the following address: Cadet’s Full Name, Central Supply, The Citadel, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, South Carolina 29409. Automobiles All vehicles operated on campus by cadets must be registered with the Commandant’s Department. Each cadet classified as C3 or C4 is authorized to have an automobile at The Citadel. No other cadet is allowed this privilege regardless of academic standing. Registration is a privilege, not a right. Registered vehicles must meet current home-state requirements with regard to registration, insurance, and safety inspections. All vehicles operated and parked on campus are at the owner’s risk. All unregistered or illegally parked vehicles are subject to ticketing and towing at the owner’s risk and expense. Certain conduct infractions may affect a cadet’s ability to maintain an automobile on campus. Parking fees are charged for all cadet parking. Each registered vehicle will be assigned to a specific, 24 hour-a-day campus property lot. A set of decals for this lot will be affixed to each registered vehicle, which can only be parked in the lot designated. Cadets may park in any space inside that lot except for those assigned to specific leadership positions. These reserved spaces will be identified around each barracks. On major college weekends, cadets may be required to move their vehicles to other college procured locations to allow for family, alumni, and guests to park on or near the main campus. NO CADET IS ALLOWED TO PARK IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THE CITADEL. This area is defined by Spring Street on the south, Rutledge Avenue on the east, and St. Margaret Street on the north. Parking in this area will result in ticketing and possible towing by the Charleston City Policy and/or disciplinary action from the Commandant’s Department for the cadet. 4th class cadets are NOT authorized to have, maintain, drive, or park an automobile on The Citadel campus or within this prescribed area at any time during their freshman year. They should not bring a car to Charleston. Two- or three-wheeled motorized vehicles may not be operated on campus. �Military Policies 67 Reserves and National Guard Cadets may become members of Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marine Corps Reserves or National Guard (Army or Air). Students who join these organizations should consider joining local units in the Charleston area for ease of transportation and conducting business. Although Reserve and National Guard duty is a priority responsibility, cadets must be aware of their academic and Citadel military responsibilities and make all efforts to ensure that conflicts are kept to a minimum. Leave It is expected that parents will not ask for special leave for their sons or daughters except in cases of extreme emergencies. In every case, the decision is left to Citadel authorities as to whether the circumstances warrant the granting of the leave. EMERGENCY LEAVE. Emergency leave may be granted in the event of death or critical illness of a member of the cadet’s immediate family. Duration of this leave will be predicated upon distance and time required but should normally not exceed five class days. The immediate family includes parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, and the permanent resident members of the family. Critical illness is defined as an illness of such proportions that death may be imminent. SPECIAL LEAVE. Special leave normally may be granted upon request of the family or guardian for events/activities which involve his/her immediate family. Cadets may also be granted special leave for such unusual business affairs as cannot be arranged by correspondence but require the presence of the cadet in person. In all cases, the final decision rests with the Battalion TAC Officer. OTHER LEAVE. The Citadel has a weekend and overnight leave policy based on cadet's CSTATUS and includes requirements for maintaining academic, physical, and conduct proficiency. Fourth class cadets are not authorized overnight or weekend leaves during the first semester. Furloughs for the Corps of Cadets are scheduled throughout the year. They include Fall Furlough (November), Winter Furlough (December-January), and Spring Furlough (March). Specific dates for these can be found on the college calendar. Cadets may depart after their last class in the case of Fall and Spring Furloughs which always begin on a Friday and end on a Sunday. CADETS MAY NOT DEPART EARLIER. Parents are highly discouraged from purchasing tickets that require early departure. Cadets will not be allowed to leave. In the case of Winter Furlough, cadets may depart after completing their last exam. Return times from all furloughs are posted on the Commandant’s Department website accessed from The Citadel Home Page. It is imperative that ALL cadets return not later than the published accountability formation. �  68   The Citadel MEDICAL SERVICES. Except in an emergency occurring on leave requiring immediate attention, a cadet will not arrange for or receive professional treatment from doctors or specialists without the knowledge of The Citadel Physician. Applications for any special leave required for such treatment will be submitted to The Citadel Physician and, if approved, will be forwarded by The Citadel Physician to the Commandant. Cadets who are receiving medical care under the auspices of a private doctor will in all cases report the nature of the treatment, to include the illness and prescribed medication, to The Citadel Physician. SPECIAL MEDICAL AND DENTAL SERVICE. (1)  Dental work, special eye examinations, etc. should be scheduled during the summer, winter, or spring furlough periods. (2)  If the services of a local dentist, oculist, doctor, or other specialist are deemed necessary, cadets will make their own appointments; however, they must inform The Citadel Physician. If desired, the Infirmary will schedule the required appointment for the cadet. The Fourth Class System The purpose of the Fourth Class System at The Citadel is to lay the foundation, early in a cadet’s career, for the development of those qualities of character and discipline implied in the mission of The Citadel as a military college—to educate principled leaders with an alert mind and a sound body who have been taught high ideals, honor, integrity, loyalty, and patriotism; who accept the responsibilities which accompany leadership; and who have sufficient professional knowledge to take a place in our competitive world. These personal qualities must be deeply ingrained in individuals so that neither time nor troubles will diminish their respect for complying with the customs and traditions set forth for the fourth class cadets’ conduct. Self-discipline and self-evaluation develop graduates whose integrity and sense of duty cause them to serve selflessly beyond the prescribed limits of their tasks. The Fourth Class System is both difficult and demanding. It represents an abrupt change from the life normally experienced in the home and encompasses the period from the cadet’s arrival for his or her first year at The Citadel until determined by the Commandant of Cadets and Cadet Leadership. It is administered professionally and requires a full measure of mental preparedness and physical endurance. Because of the nature of the new cadets’ training during their first weeks at The Citadel, physical demands are great. Experience indicates that the cadets who, prior to admission, have conditioned themselves physically are best able to meet the training requirements. At the time of their medical examination, cadets should consult with their physician regarding their body weight. Particular attention should be given to estimated percent body fat, which provides a much more accurate figure for determining proper body weight than height/weight charts. If body weight loss appears to be indicated, cadets should follow the physician’s advice relative to reducing caloric intake and increasing caloric expenditure. �Military Policies 69 The Charleston climate is generally conducive to year-round outdoor physical activity; however, the hot, humid conditions of August and September present several problems worthy of consideration. It is, therefore, important that cadets prepare themselves by controlled exposure to similar conditions during exercise. Preparation guidance can be found in the Fourth Class Success Packet on The Citadel home page. In addition, each applicant for entry into The Citadel should be assured through a medical examination that there is no history of physical ailments which could possibly cause discharge due to inability to participate in the Fourth Class System. The Fourth Class System by nature appears arbitrary on the surface. It demands prompt and unquestioning obedience of authority through the use of a collection of customs and traditions. However, each of the elements or customs has a special purpose in furthering a cadet’s development. The system includes standing at a rigid position of attention, turning square corners when walking, undergoing inspections before formations, learning various items of fourth class knowledge, working on approved company details such as minor chores incident to keeping one’s own area of the barracks in order, submitting to a variety of minor restrictions concerning the use of certain campus grounds and facilities, the wearing of the uniform, and the general conduct of a fourth class cadet. Cadets who are unable to meet the desired standards or violate one or more of the customs are subject to corrective action. This can range from a verbal reprimand to walking tours on the barracks quadrangle and may include restriction to the limits of campus. In extreme cases, a cadet who is unable to conform to the military way of life may be brought before a Suitability Board to determine fitness to continue at The Citadel. The measures described above are designed to test a cadet’s mettle and to determine motivation for cadet life. Their value lies in developing cadets’ ability to perform their duty successfully under trying and stress-producing conditions. Hazing is not a part of the Fourth Class System and is not tolerated. The suffering of degradation, humiliation, and indignity does not foster the rapid development of those qualities sought in fourth class cadets. The Fourth Class System is a formidable challenge to any young person. The decision to enter The Citadel must be preceded by a conviction on the part of the prospective cadets and their parents that these future cadets have the mental and physical characteristics appropriate to the system and possess a willingness to undergo the system’s rigors with a determination to see it through and to reap its benefits. Although the system is demanding and difficult, the rewards are considerable, and they more than justify the effort. At recognition by the upper class cadets, a better person emerges—one who is mentally, physically, and ethically prepared to accept the responsibilities of leadership which will ultimately be given at The Citadel and in the world. An incoming cadet is classified as a “Legacy” if at least one or more of the following criteria are confirmed: • Father and/or mother are graduates and former members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets • Brother and/or sister are current members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets �  70   The Citadel • Brother and/or sister are graduates and former members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets • Grandfather and/or grandmother are graduates and former members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets These are the ONLY qualifications that relate to the determination of “Legacy” cadets. Fourth Class System for Transfer Students Those students transferring from the national service academies (specifically the Military Academy, the Naval Academy, the Air Force Academy, the Coast Guard Academy, and the Merchant Marine Academy), Virginia Military Institute, or any other institution at which such students have: a. successfully completed their participation in a fourth class or plebe system; b. been full-time students in good standing in an ROTC program for the period of their enrollment at such an institution; c. been enrolled at any of the institutions listed above for a minimum of two semesters; shall have the option of requesting a transfer out of the Fourth Class System after one semester at The Citadel, provided at that time they are at least academic sophomores. Eligible students exercising this option to transfer out of the Fourth Class System shall have no cadet rank, nor have any authority over the other fourth class cadets for the balance of the academic year. All other transfer students, regardless of academic standing, will undergo a full year of the Fourth Class System at The Citadel. The Commandant of Cadets will make the final decision on requests for transfer. The Citadel’s Physical Effectiveness Program There are two (2) parts of The Citadel Physical Effectiveness Program: Weight Management and Physical Fitness. Every cadet is expected to meet the standards established in each of these areas at all times. A Corps Height/ Weight Screening is held each fall and spring semester. The Corps Physical Fitness Test is administered each term. By regulation, cadets are required to take these tests every semester. Detailed information on both is found in Chapter Five of the cadet regulation entitled The White Book. Cadets not meeting the standards of the Corps Physical Fitness Test are considered Physically Deficient resulting in loss of privileges and rank. Programs are designed to help those cadets work towards reaching the minimum requirements in both fitness and weight management. These programs are mandatory, and it is the individual cadet’s responsibility to participate. Seniors who do not pass the Corps Physical Fitness Test as required each semester will not be allowed to participate in the Fall Semester Ring Presentation or the Spring Semester Graduation Activities to include the Long Gray Line Parade and the Commencement Ceremony. �ROTC Programs 71 ROTC Programs The Citadel offers commissioning opportunities in all branches of the armed services. While every cadet must successfully complete a course in one of four programs each semester of their freshmen and sophomore year, cadets are not required to enroll in any ROTC commissioning program nor are they required to accept a commission should it be offered. All cadets are required to satisfy an ROTC requirement for every semester in which they are enrolled at The Citadel. Study abroad cadets will complete ROTC requirements via independent study/online; see respective ROTC department for approval. If extenuating circumstances beyond the control of the cadet require that he/she withdraw from or not enroll in ROTC, the cadet who is pursuing or may wish to pursue a commission must have the permission of the head of that ROTC Detachment. The cadet who is not pursuing a commission must have the permission of the academic advisor and the Associate Provost. Cadets who miss or fail an ROTC class must meet that requirement in order to graduate. When cadets are making up a missed ROTC requirement or changing to another ROTC, they are not, without permission of the head of the ROTC Detachment, permitted to enroll in an ROTC class at a level lower than their academic class. For example, a member of the senior class who wishes to change to another ROTC must enroll in a senior-level course in the new ROTC unless the head of the ROTC Detachment authorizes enrollment in a lower level course. ROTC classes may not be used to meet elective requirements in any course of study. ROTC Enhancement The Armed Forces Scholarship Program has been established to assist the Air Force, Army, and Navy ROTC Detachments at The Citadel in bringing the best and brightest officer candidates to the school. Prospective students must have a minimum 1200 SAT (or 27 ACT), a minimum high school GPA of 3.2, and have accepted an ROTC scholarship prior to matriculation as a freshman at The Citadel in order to be considered. Recipients of the scholarship will receive an annual award of $3,500 for each year in which they receive the ROTC scholarship. Recipients of the Armed Forces Scholarship will be notified by The Citadel’s Director of Financial Aid & Scholarships. A student must maintain a 3.0 minimum GPA to maintain the Armed Forces Scholarship. Failure to do so will result in the cancellation of the scholarship. The Armed Forces Scholarship will not be reinstated once it has been lost. Students who are awarded an ROTC Scholarship after matriculating at The Citadel are not eligible for an Armed Forces Scholarship. ARMY ROTC PROGRAM The mission of Army ROTC is to commission the future officer leadership of the U.S. Army and to motivate young people to be better Americans. Army ROTC is the only commissioning program that offers future officers the opportunity to serve in the regular Army as well as the National Guard or the Army Reserve. Regardless of cadets’ academic majors, there is an Army specialty that can fulfill their goals. �  72   The Citadel U.S. Army ROTC Graduates Graduates of The Citadel’s Army ROTC program, who have accepted a contract, have the opportunity to serve their country in a variety of branches and specialties. Those cadets who have excelled academically and militarily, both in the classroom and at the ROTC Advance Camp, and who have clearly demonstrated high character and outstanding leadership ability, will be selected as Distinguished Military Students. Graduates of the Army ROTC program may serve as officers on Active Duty, members of the United States Army Reserve, or Army National Guard. Those who desire to be in the National Guard or U.S. Army Reserve will serve on active duty to complete their officer basic course, and then serve as a “citizen soldier” in a Reserve or Guard unit near their homes, graduate schools, places of employment, or in the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR). No matter what type of option is chosen, the total obligation is eight years of active or reserve duty, or a combination of both. Scholarships The Army sponsors 4-, 3-1/2-, 3-, 2-1/2-, 2-, and 1-year academic scholarships for outstanding cadets who desire careers as officers in the United States Army. High school students must apply before 17 January of their senior year for four-year and three-year Advanced Designee scholarships. Applications may be obtained at www.armyrotc.com. The application process for two-year and three-year Campus Based Scholarships begins in November of the cadet’s freshman (three-year) and sophomore (two-year) years. The Army scholarship currently pays tuition and fees or room and board for qualified applicants. The amounts are adjusted annually due to institutional tuition and fee changes. Cadets interested in Reserve Component Duty can apply for a two-year Dedicated or Guaranteed Reserve Forces Duty Scholarship or for a two-year Dedicated Army National Guard Scholarship in November of their sophomore year. Pay and Allowances Cadets enrolled in the ROTC Basic Course, who are academic freshmen or sophomores, receive a uniform allowance each academic year. Cadets who are in the Advanced Course (junior and senior years) and contracted with the Army to be commissioned when they graduate receive a uniform allowance. Additionally, contracted cadets will receive a non-taxable subsistence allowance of $420/month for ten month of the school year. All scholarship students receive a textbook allowance of $600 per semester. Between their junior and senior years, all contracted cadets attend a four-week Advance Camp and receive one-half of the base pay of a Second Lieutenant plus travel to and from either Charleston, SC, or their home of record. �ROTC Programs 73 Summer Training Outstanding cadets also have the opportunity to attend U.S. Army training such as Airborne school, Air Assault school, Mountain Warfare training, and/or Cadet Troop Leadership Training (CTLT) with active duty Army units around the globe. Cadets are allowed to enlist or retain their membership in the Army National Guard or U.S. Army Reserve under the Simultaneous Membership Program (SMP). Formal Enrollment Requirements The basic requirements for enrollment in the Army ROTC program must be fully met before the Professor of Military Science can consider a cadet for enrollment in the Army program. (Cadets not meeting these standards are not eligible for commissions or ROTC monetary allowances.) To be eligible, a cadet must: 1. Be a citizen of the United States of America. 2. Be of good character. Cadets convicted by a civil or military court of offenses other than minor traffic violations are not eligible for enrollment without specific approval of the Department of the Army. A cadet may apply for a waiver for a conviction, provided the offense was nonrecurring and did not involve moral turpitude. 3. Maintain a satisfactory academic record. A minimum of a 2.00 cumulative GPA is required. 4. Maintain a satisfactory disciplinary record and leadership rating. This rating is determined by the Professor of Military Science. 5. Pass the Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) and meet/maintain the required height and weight standards. 6. Be physically and medically qualified under Department of the Army medical standards. Formal enrollment in the Advanced Course and contracting requires a cadet to meet all of the above criteria, and validation of these criteria is normally done during the cadet’s sophomore year. Waivers for physical defects are granted only in exceptional circumstances, and then only by the authority of the Department of the Army. NAVY/MARINE ROTC PROGRAM The purpose of the Navy and Marine Corps NROTC Program at The Citadel is to educate and train cadets for professional service as officers in the U.S. Naval Services. The Citadel’s NROTC Program is uniquely suited to provide extensive operational training opportunities as a result of being located in proximity to several military bases and training facilities. Additionally, frequent visits to The Citadel and the Charleston area by operational Navy and Marine Corps units provide several “hands-on” training evolutions for students in The Citadel’s NROTC Program. Two programs are offered by the NROTC Program, leading to commissions as Ensigns (Navy) or Second Lieutenants (Marines): 1. The Navy/Marine Corps Scholarship Program includes selected Naval Scholarship candidates assigned to The Citadel who have their tuition and a portion of their college expenses paid by the Department of the Navy and will be commissioned upon graduation. �  74   The Citadel 2. The Navy/Marine Corps College Program is that part of the NROTC Program in which students, who have not received national NROTC scholarships, pursue education and training for commissions in the Navy or Marine Corps. College Program students are eligible to compete for Naval Scholarships while students at The Citadel, or may be selected for Advanced Standing within the College Program. Naval ROTC Scholarship Program Navy/Marine Corps Scholarship students are selected through national competition and attend one of the colleges or universities with NROTC units. The Navy/Marine Corps Scholarship midshipmen attending The Citadel may enroll in any academic major offered by the college. However, all Navy option midshipmen, regardless of major, are required to complete MATH 131/132 or MATH 106/107 and PHYS 221/222 (with associated laboratories). All Navy/Marine Corps midshipmen are required to be enrolled in the Service Specific Naval Science Labs. All four-year Navy and Marine Corps NROTC Scholarship students receiving a commission must also attend three summer training sessions with pay. In return, the Department of the Navy, via The Citadel NROTC Unit, provides tuition, certain fees, a textbook allowance, a uniform allowance, and a monthly subsistence allowance. Upon graduation, NROTC Scholarship midshipmen receive commissions as Ensigns in the U.S. Navy or Second Lieutenants in the U.S. Marine Corps and serve on active duty a minimum of five y ears. For additional information, please see the NROTC website at www.nrotc.navy.mil and NROTC Unit, The Citadel’s website at www.citadel.edu/nrotc. Naval ROTC College Program The NROTC College Program is offered for cadets who wish to earn commissions as officers in the U.S. Navy or U.S. Marine Corps but were not recipients of NROTC Scholarships. College Program students are required to enroll in Naval Science classes, participate with the NROTC Unit in scheduled training and events, and may compete for a variety of other Naval Scholarships offered by the Chief of Naval Education and Training. Each year a number of College Program cadets at The Citadel may receive one, two, or three-year NROTC scholarships. Additionally, some College Program students, who have not previously been offered Naval Scholarships, may be selected for Advanced Standing prior to beginning their junior year. Students selected for Advanced Standing must attend a minimum of one summer training course, with pay, usually the summer after their junior year. College Program students in Advanced Standing will be provided with all Naval Science textbooks, an annual uniform allowance, and a monthly subsistence allowance during the junior and senior years. Upon graduation, these Naval cadets receive commissions in the U.S. Navy or the U.S. Marine Corps and serve on active duty for a minimum of four years. �ROTC Programs 75 Formal Enrollment Requirements To be eligible for enrollment in the Naval ROTC program, cadets must: 1. be citizens of the United States; 2. have reached the 17th anniversary of their birth by September 1 of the year enrolled; 3. not have reached their 27th birthday by December 31 of the year they expect to graduate (this can be waived); and 4. be physically qualified. (Defective vision must be correctable to 20/20, and waivers for color blindness may be considered.) 5. Additional program entrance requirements may be found at www.nrotc. navy.mil. Those cadets not qualified for or not desiring formal enrollment in either the Scholarship or College Program may participate in Naval Science courses for academic credit only. They will not be eligible for appointment to a commissioned grade. NROTC Summer Training NROTC Scholarship Midshipmen • Required to complete up to three summer training courses of two to four weeks duration • First Summer Training Course o Navy and Marine midshipmen will attend Career Orientation Training for Midshipmen (CORTRAMID).

STA-21 Active Duty students are only required to complete Naval Leadership and Management (NAVL 201) and Naval Leadership and Ethics (NAVL 403) ROTC courses in order to meet graduation and commissioning requirements. MECEPActive Duty students are required to complete Evolution of Warfare I (NAVL 303), Fundamentals of Maneuver Warfare (NAVL 402), and Naval Leadership and Ethics (NAVL 403) ROTC courses; however, the Professor of Naval Science may grant waivers for Evolution of Warfare and Fundamentals of Maneuver Warfare if these courses cause an academic overload and result in a graduation delay. Additionally, all Active Duty students must also enroll in Navy or Marine Corps Training Labs each semester. The Senior Leadership Integration Seminar (LDRS 411) is not a graduation requirement for Active Duty students. �ROTC Programs 77 AIR FORCE ROTC PROGRAM The mission of The Citadel’s Air Force ROTC Detachment is to develop leaders and citizens of character for tomorrow's Air Force and Space Force.

Field training is a memorable experience in which cadets get an introduction to Air Force life and operations. Each cadet receives practical guidance in leadership, small-arms familiarization, physical training, and expeditionary operations. Professional Development Training The vast scope of the United States Air Force operations is difficult to portray in the classroom. Air Force ROTC offers Professiional Development Training (PDT) opportunities to deservng cadets. Some of our PDT opportunities include: Air Force base vists, Air Force Academy Freefall Parachute Training, Air Force Research Laboratory Scholars Program, Combat Rescue Officer Program, National Reconnaissance Office Summer Internship, Language Enable Airman Program, and more. Cadets return to school with a better perspective of the Air Force's global nature. Ecperience has shown that PDTs are of considerable value in developing the cadets' appreciation of the Air Force officer's life and career. AFROTC Scholarship Programs The Air Force offers three types of scholarships to deserving students. All scholarships are highly competitive and awarded on merit. Type 1 — pays full college tuition for both in-state and out-of-state cadets, most lab fees and $600 per year for books. Approximately 5 percent of our 4-year scholarship winners will be offered a Type 1 scholarship. Type 2 — pays college tuition and most lab fees up to $18,000 and $600 per year for books. Approximately 15 percent of our 4-year scholarship winners will be offered a Type 2 scholarship (mostly in technical fields). All 3-year scholarships are Type 2. Type 7 — pays full college tuition and most lab fees up to the equivalent of the in-state rate. These students also receive $600 per year for books. Type 7 scholarships may be converted to a Type 2 for 3 years. Out-ofstate recipients attending The Citadel typically convert their Type 7 to a Type 2. Scholarships are awarded under two separate programs. The High School Scholarship Program (HSSP) is open to graduating high school seniors. The In-College Scholarship Program (ICSP) is open to college freshmnan and sophomores. High School Scholarship Program The Air Force ROTC High School Scholarship Program (HSSP) provides three- and four-year scholarships to deserving high school seniors. Students can apply by completing an online application by January of their senior year. Details on how to apply for HSSP scholarships, eligibility requirements, and �ROTC Programs 79 the on-line application can be found at www.afrotc.com. Selectiion is based on: GPA, SAT/ACT score, Air Force Fitness Assessment, extracurricular activities, leadership potential, AFROTC interview, and desired academic major. In-College Scholarship Program The In-College Scholarship Program (ICSP) offers two- to three-year scholarships to deserving college freshmen and sophomores in all majors. At The Citadel, all eligible AFROTC cadets are automatically competed each semester starting Spring Freshmen year until they go to Field Training (summer between sophomore and junior year). Selection is based on: Collee GPA, Air Force Fitness Assessment, and Commander's Ranking. ICSP eligibility requirements vary slightly each semester, but typically cadets must: • Be United States citizen • Pass the Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (cadet may use ACT/SAT score if unable to take AFOQT in time for board) • Pass the Air Force ROTC Physical Fitness Assessment • Have at least a 2.5 cumulative college grade point average • Complete a physical examination and be certified as medically qualified by the Department of Defense Medical Examination Review Board (DODMERB). Additional Pay and Allowances All Air Force cadets are provided an annual uniform allowance of $800. Contract cadets aer provided a monthly subsistence allowance: te current rates are: $300 for freshman, $350 for sophomores, $450 for juniiors, and $500 for seniors. Scholarship cadets are also paid an annual $600 book allowance. �Expenses The Citadel is supported by the State of South Carolina. The costs of operation are underwritten through fees collected from the students, appropriations made by the General Assembly of South Carolina, and contributions to The Citadel. Nonresidents are required to pay a larger portion of the costs of their education than is required of residents of South Carolina. The Citadel Treasurer is responsible for the collection of monies due The Citadel. All correspondence concerning fees, payments, and status of accounts should be directed to that office. If referral to a collection agency is required for overdrawn accounts, the amount referred will include the collection agency fee. If an account is unpaid, the college will initiate internal and external collections proceedings. These proceedings will include credit bureau reporting, referring accounts to outside collections and State of South Carolina collection efforts. Accounts referred for collection will incur additional collection costs paid by the student. Fees Students attending the day program at The Citadel pay three primary fees: college fees, auxiliary fees, and a OneCard Restricted deposit. Active duty military personnel assigned to military units for educational purposes pay the same college fees as cadets. The college reserves the right to adjust fees to meet the current cost of operation should it become necessary. This applies to all educational programs at The Citadel. Current fees are available on The Citadel’s web page. The student assumes responsibility for payment of all fees and overdrafts. All fees and deposits are due and payable by semester, prior to the date of reporting to school. Bills are normally due the first Friday in August. Failure to meet billing deadlines subjects the student to being dropped from enrollment at The Citadel. For incoming freshman cadets or returning upper class cadets, failure to meet billing deadlines may result in the loss of space in the Corps of Cadets and a late payment charge. Remittances by money order or check should be made payable to The Citadel and mailed to the Treasurer, The Citadel, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, South Carolina 29409. Remittances by credit card (Mastercard, Visa, Discover, or American Express) may be paid on line via a secure connection at the citadel.edu website. There may be a 2.75% convenience fee charged for the use of credit card payments, but no charge for e-check payments. Information relative to financing educational fees on a monthly installment basis may be secured by contacting the Treasurer’s Office at The Citadel or by viewing the Treasurer’s Office link on The Citadel’s web page at citadel.edu. The Director of Financial Aid and Scholarships also has information concerning financing educational fees through loans other than the guaranteed student loan. Financing arrangements require time for processing, so it is essential that application be made as early as possible prior to the beginning of the school year. �Expenses 81 Overdrawn Accounts: A student whose account is overdrawn will not be issued or be allowed to send copies of his or her official transcript, be issued a diploma, or be permitted to enroll in additional course work until satisfactory settlement of the account has been made. Non-negotiable Checks: There will be a handling charge of $30 for a nonnegotiable check. The college will pursue collection procedures as provided by the laws of the State of South Carolina. The Citadel will not accept personal checks from individuals who have issued two non-negotiable checks or one non-negotiable check which has not been redeemed. ATM machine: The college contracts with a major bank to provide an ATM machine in Mark Clark Hall. Students can access their personal bank accounts through this machine. This is a convenient and secure method to handle cash and eliminates the need for students to have large amounts of cash on hand. Resident Tuition and Fees Any undergraduate student or prospective student whose status concerning entitlement to payment of in-state tuition and fees is uncertain has the responsibility of securing a ruling from The Citadel by providing all relevant information on special application forms. These forms can be obtained from the Office of the Registrar and are to be completed and returned to that office at least two weeks prior to the last day of classes for any semester or summer term for which the student is attempting to qualify for payment of the in-state tuition and fee rate. Until such time that eligibility for residency is confirmed, out-of-state fees will be due and payable. Refunds will be issued when a ruling awards in-state status. Eligibility for payment of in-state tuition and fees shall be determined under the provisions of Sections 59-112-10 through 59-112-100, South Carolina Code of Laws, 1976, as amended. A copy of this law may be obtained from The Citadel Registrar’s Office. Fee Descriptions College fees support the general operations of the college. A portion of college fees is earmarked to provide debt service for bonds issued to support construction and renovation of education and general facilities and equipment of the college. These are the only fees that are different for in state and out of state students. Auxiliary fees include athletic support, room, board, infirmary care, and laundry and dry cleaning. A portion of these fees is designed to pay debt service for the auxiliary and athletic facilities. OneCard Restricted deposit is used to pay for uniforms, uniform alterations, accessories, books, academic supplies, and haircuts. The amount of the deposit is determined annually based upon the average needs of cadets. Certain academic programs and certain corps activities will require other expenditures that are unique to that activity. If a cadet’s costs exceed the deposit amount, the cadet will be required to pay in full or provide additional deposit money. Any unused portion of the deposit will be carried over to the following semester. All unspent funds will be refunded upon graduation or discharge. �  82   The Citadel Uniforms: All cadets are required to wear The Citadel uniform, which is issued by the College. New cadets are required to be outfitted in new uniforms and uniform accessories issued by the college. New cadets should not bring a supply of civilian clothes other than those which are worn upon reporting to the college, as they are not permitted to wear civilian clothes except during authorized furloughs. The cost of uniforms, although a paid fee, should be viewed as a clothing expense which is incidental to attending any college. With proper care, uniforms should last for several years. Requirements in subsequent years will depend on the manner in which cadets have cared for their uniforms. The overall cost of the uniforms should not exceed that which would be incurred in purchasing clothes to attend a civilian college. Additional sets of uniforms may be purchased as desired (for cash) in the Cadet Store. The woolen uniforms issued to cadets are custom-made for The Citadel. Once the uniforms have been fitted, the entire cost will be charged to the cadet. Since the uniforms are tailor-made to the measurements of each cadet after enrollment at The Citadel, every cadet withdrawing from college will be charged a fee for canceling the purchase of the uniforms. In order to keep the appearance of the Corps of Cadets at the highest level, an inspection will be made of the uniforms of members of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes at the beginning of the school year. If the uniforms do not meet the minimum standards of appearance, the individual will be required to purchase replacements of unserviceable uniform items. The Citadel Tuition Payment Plan The Citadel Tuition Payment Plan (CTPP) allows all students and families to finance the cost of Tuition, Auxiliary Fees (Housing/Room/Board), and OneCard. Enrollment deadlines can be found on the Treasurer’s web page at www.citadel.edu\treasurer. Failure to pay any outstanding balance by the end of the semester will result in a registration hold being placed on their account until the balance is paid off. Statement of Students’ Accounts Students have three accounts at the Citadel, a student account, the OneCard Restricted Account, and the Open Account. All are available for review online. It is incumbent upon the students to verify each charge or credit made to their accounts. The Restricted Account and the Open Account are both different accounts on the OneCard. The Restricted Account is automatically loaded each fall and spring semester. It is used to purchase scholastic items only. This includes books, supplies, haircuts, uniforms, tailoring, and accessories. The Open Account on the One Card can be loaded with additional funds for use at campus facilities. The Open Account is used mainly to purchase food, drinks, and other items that cannot be purchase on the Restricted Account. To deposit funds, you can send cash or check to the One Card Office located in Bond Hall, room 244. You may also go online via Lesesne Gateway and navigate to Campus Center to deposit funds electronically to the Open Account. Any unexpended OneCard balance will be held until the student withdraws or graduates from The Citadel. Full athletic grant-in-aid and full academic scholarship recipients are not �83 authorized to receive a refund. Balances in accounts of full athletic grant-in-aid recipients are refunded to the Athletic Department annually. Other Fees Reservation Deposit: A $300.00 reservation deposit is required of all newly accepted cadet applicants. This deposit assures class reservations and a barracks space and will be credited toward the cadet’s bill at registration. Diploma Fee: The diploma fee is adjusted each year to address the current market price. Transcript Fee: Information regarding transcripts is available on the Registrar’s Office web page: http://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar. Laboratory/Orientation Fees: Laboratory/Orientation Fees are charged students taking certain designated courses or orientation programs. Fees are billed as part of the preregistered course load. Technology Fee: A technology fee is charged each cadet. The fee partially offsets the cost of the various computer laboratories on campus and the costs associated with having computers in barracks rooms. Late Fee: A significant late fee is charged to all students who are permitted to enroll, even though they may not have satisfied all the financial requirements, i.e. those who have not finalized federal financial aid. Students who sign up for a payment plan and fail to meet the requirements of that plan will be charged the same late fee at the time they fall behind. Other Fees: In addition to the above, other fees that can be charged include: parking fees, infirmary charges, barracks damage, parking citations, yearbook, lost library books, library book late fees, rifle repair, and other fees directed by college officials. Refunds The Citadel is committed to many expenses based upon the anticipated enrollment of a student at the beginning of each semester. Registration at The Citadel is considered to be a contract binding students and their parents or guardians to charges for the entire semester. However, students who withdraw during a semester may receive partial refunds based on the length of attendance. Refunds will be computed from the required reporting date until the withdrawal date as determined by the Registrar. No refunds will be made for less than $1.00. In the event that a cadet receives a Medical Discharge, any refund due the cadet will follow the normal refund schedule policy as promulgated by the Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs. In the event that the Medical Discharge is a direct consequence of an injury received during The Citadel training program, the cadet may request an adjustment to this policy. The Campus Assessment Team (CAT) will make the final decision on all such requests. Authorized refunds are as follows: The school is not subject to any State or Accrediting Agency refund policy. The refund schedule can be found on the Treasurer’s Office web page: http:// www.citadel.edu/root/treasurer. Deposits for Uniforms, Books, Supplies, and Accessories - OneCard Restricted Account: Any unused portion of the deposit to the student’s account for uniforms, books, supplies, and accessories will be refunded within 30 days of graduation or discharge. �  84   The Citadel Financial Aid & Scholarships It is the mission of the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships to increase opportunities and access to monetary assistance by helping students and their families seek, obtain and make best use to all financial resources. Our primary purpose is to provide financial assistance to all students who, without such aid, would be unable to attend college. Through literacy and guidance, we support students with their transition to college and continue to make their academic aspirations attainable. While complying with all required regulations and guidelines we ensure equitable and consistent administration of over 70 million dollars annually from Federal, State, Institutional and Outside sources. Forms and Deadlines To apply for financial aid at The Citadel and to best demonstrate eligibility for need-based scholarships, all students should file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon as possible after October 1 of each year. These forms are available online at http://FAFSA.ed.gov. The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships may request additional information. Students are responsible for checking their e-mail account, online Citadel financial aid account, completing all requested paperwork, and submitting financial aid requirements in a timely manner. Funds are limited, so late applications are considered for aid only if resources are available. Priority deadline dates are as follows: Academic year (fall and spring) February 28 Fall only February 28 Spring only October 15 Summer April 15 Applicants who have not completed all financial aid paperwork by June 30 should not expect to receive notification of awards prior to the beginning of fall semester. These applicants should be prepared to pay for their tuition, fees, and other costs at the established fee payment deadlines. Students will be reimbursed if they are subsequently determined to be eligible for financial aid. Determining Financial Need The amount of financial aid is determined based on the FAFSA form the applicant files after October each year. This form solicits information about the applicant’s family’s current financial situation and produces an “expected family contribution” (EFC). Adjusted gross income data from tax forms is used along with current asset information to determine family resources. Allowances are made for federal and state taxes, social security, employment (when both parents work), unusual medical and dental expenses, and family size. Other factors considered are any unusual expenses and the number of family members in college. In its simplest definition, financial need is the difference between the cost to attend college and the expected family contribution, as determined by the need analysis. If costs exceed the amount of family contribution, then the applicant has “demonstrated” financial need. �Financial Aid and Scholarships 85 Dependent or Independent Status Federal student aid programs are based on the premise that parents have the primary responsibility of financing their dependent children’s education. However, independent students are not required to submit parental data. Students who fall into at least one of the following categories are automatically considered independent: a. 24 years old or older by December 31 of the award year, b. Master’s or doctorate student, c. Married, d. Have children and provide more than half of their support, e. Have legal dependents (other than a spouse), f. Dependent or ward of the court or were in foster care or both parents were deceased since turning age 13, g. On active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces for purposes other than training, h. Veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces, i. Homeless or at risk of being homeless, or j. Is/was an emancipated minor. Federal Eligibility Requirements Any student who is accepted for admission is eligible to request financial assistance. However, there are several general eligibility requirements a student must meet to receive federal financial aid: a. b. c. d. e. f. A student must be admitted to The Citadel as a regular or provisional student, A student must be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen, A student may not receive aid if he or she is in default on any federal student loan program with any institution, Generally, a student must be enrolled at least half-time. This is defined as 4.5 hours/semester for graduate students and 6 hours/semester for undergraduate students, A student may not receive aid if he or she owes a repayment on a Pell Grant, Supplemental Grant, or state Student Incentive Grant at any institution, A student must have the minimum grade point ratio and must make satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward a degree to continue to receive federal financial aid. �  86   The Citadel Types of Financial Aid Grants Federal Pell Grant The Federal Pell Grant program provides federal grants for eligible undergraduate students. Eligibility is determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) using a nationally mandated formula applied uniformly to all applicants. Students must demonstrate satisfactory progress toward a degree each year to receive a Pell Grant in the next academic term. The Citadel participates in the Department of Education’s Electronic Data Exchange (EDE) program, which provides the student and the institution with faster processing of applications. When a student completes the FAFSA, the eligibility for a Federal Pell Grant is determined by the processor, and an electronic Student Aid Report (SAR) is available for applicants who provide a valid e-mail address. At the same time, an electronic ISIR is generated to the school. If corrections need to be made on the application, the institution can send the corrections electronically and have the results within four business days. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) The SEOG program provides aid to students who qualify for Pell Grants and who show exceptional financial need. These grants range in value from $300 to $4,000 per academic year, with the average award being $1,000. South Carolina Need-Based Grant South Carolina Need-Based Grants are awarded to South Carolina residents, on a first-come basis, who demonstrate financial need. A student may receive up to $2,500 annually for full time status and up to $1,250 annually for part-time status. Visit the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education web site for eligibility requirements. Athletic Grants-in-Aid These grants are awarded to qualified students selected by members of the coaching staff. Additional information may be obtained by writing to the Director of Athletics. Work Programs The Federal Work-Study Program This federally funded program provides part-time employment to qualifying students. Students are paid on an hourly basis, not less than the federal minimum wage. Paychecks are issued twice a month directly to students for hours worked. The Human Resources Office makes assignments after a student has qualified for work-study. The Institutional Work Program This non-federally funded program makes a variety of student jobs available in academic and administrative offices on campus. A student does not need to demonstrate financial need. Inquiries and applications are made in the Human Resources office. �Financial Aid and Scholarships 87 Loans The Federal Direct Loan Program The Federal Direct Loan Program provides students with long-term, low interest subsidized and unsubsidized loans. The federal government pays the interest of the subsidized loan while the student is enrolled in school, whereas the interest accrues on the unsubsidized loan. The FAFSA contribution is taken into consideration when determining eligibility for any subsidized student loans. The maximum loan amount for a combination of subsidized and unsubsidized loans is $5,500 for a first year student; $6,500 for a second year student; and $7,500 for remaining years of study. During their academic careers, undergraduate dependent students may borrow up to a maximum of $31,000 (only $23,000 can be subsidized). Independent undergraduate students may borrow up to a maximum of $57,500 (only $23,000 can be subsidized). The interest rates are set each year. Please check current rates online at citadel.edu/finaid. Repayment begins six months after the student graduates or after enrollment drops below half-time status. The Federal Direct Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) Under the Federal Direct PLUS program, parents of dependent undergraduate students may borrow annually up to the difference between the student’s cost of attendance and the estimated amount of financial assistance for each dependent student. There is no aggregate maximum under this program. The interest rate is set each year. Please check current rates online at citadel.edu/finaid. Repayment begins 60 days after the final disbursement or can be deferred while the student is enrolled at least half-time. South Carolina Teacher Loan Program This South Carolina Teacher Loan Program is intended to attract and maintain the residency of talented teachers through the offer of student loan cancellation. Loan recipients who become certified to teach in critical need subject areas or who choose to teach in a designated school district will have their loans cancelled up to 100% at the rate of 20% for each full year of teaching. To qualify for this program, students must be South Carolina residents who attend college for the purpose of becoming a certified teacher. Employment must be in the state’s public school system in an area of critical need as defined by the State Board of Education. Loan recipients who fail to become certified or who do not teach in a critical need area must repay the entire amount of the loan plus interest. Funds are limited; the priority filing deadline is April 30. The Citadel Scholars Programs The Citadel's scholarship programs are designed to attract outstanding high school graduates to the college, reward undergraduate academic excellence, and help those worthy students who desire financial assistance to pay for their college education. Annually, The Citadel awards more than 3 million dollars in academic scholarships to entering freshmen and enrolled upperclassmen. The college offers a number of full academic scholarships covering catalog costs to incoming freshmen each year. �  88   The Citadel Prospective/Incoming Cadets Incoming freshmen cadets are automatically considered for the majority of the college’s merit scholarships. Consideration is based on the standard application for admission and provided high school credentials. Prospective cadets do not complete a separate scholarship application in most cases. Recipients of scholarships are notified by April 30th in most cases. There are three categories or tiers of scholarship that do require additional information. Candidates are identified by a wholistic review of their high school credentials and extracurricular activities. Candidates are contacted by the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships and invited to apply. This competitive process determines the recipients for the following scholarship awards: Full Academic Scholarships The Citadel Honors Program 1842 Scholars Program Full academic scholarships cover catalog costs (including tuition, room/board, quartermaster charges) and are the most prestigious of The Citadel’s awards to incoming freshmen based on academic merit. The Citadel Honors Program is the college’s premier program for intellectually and academically gifted students who demonstrate a love of learning and wish to participate in rich intellectual discourse over their four-year college career. Special benefits include small classes, discussion-style instruction and competing for national-level post-graduate scholarships or fellowships. The 1842 Scholars Program offers students the opportunity to engage with like-minded cadets through professional development, mentorship, study abroad programs, and more. The goal of the program is to identify and recruit highly motivated students, immerse them in a cohort community where they can explore their academic passions, provide them with opportunities to take intellectual risks, and develop them as thinkers and leaders. Awards Most incoming freshman scholarship recipients will be notified of their standing by April 30th. All scholarships must be applied for on an annual basis, except for full academic scholarships and scholarships for which the deeds of trust specify multi-year awards. External Scholarships Numerous corporations, employers, professional organizations, foundations, local civic organizations, churches, and high schools make scholarships available to Citadel cadets. Outside scholarship assistance has been a rapidly growing source of financial aid at The Citadel. Students should consult high school counselors, employers, civic leaders or public officials and use the local library to obtain information on educational foundations which offer scholarships. Palmetto Fellows, LIFE, and HOPE Scholarships are available to residents of South Carolina. Complete information concerning these state programs can be found on the website for the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education. �Financial Aid and Scholarships 89 ROTC Scholarships ROTC Scholarships provide significant financial assistance to Citadel students. The Army, Navy, or Air Force each has its own criteria and time tables for application and acceptance. SAT or ACT scores should be submitted to the respective service usually by December during the senior year of high school. Enrolled Citadel students can also apply for two- or three-year ROTC Army and Navy scholarships that cover all tuition costs and academic fees, but do not pay the room and board and book and supplies components of the bill. Air Force ROTC scholarships pay according to the type of contract awarded. Every ROTC scholarship student also receives a monthly stipend that could be used to offset the cost of books. Nearly 10% of the Corps of Cadets hold ROTC scholarships. Students interested in ROTC scholarships should contact the head of the appropriate Citadel ROTC unit for additional information and application assistance. Other Assistance Vocational Rehabilitation Scholarships: This program provides for education and training if the student has a physical or mental disability which is a substantial handicap to employment and if there exists reasonable expectation that vocational rehabilitation services may lead to gainful employment. Additional information is available through the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation in the student’s home state. Veterans Benefits: Veterans benefits are administered under the umbrella of the Veteran Student Success Center at The Citadel. Veterans benefits are intended to meet the needs of students receiving benefits under the following programs: • • • • • Ch. 30 - Montgomery GI Bill®—Active Duty, Veterans Ch. 31 – Veterans Readiness and Employment Ch. 35 – Survivors’ and Dependents’ Educational Assistance Program Ch. 33 – Post-9/11 G.I. Bill® Ch. 1606 - Montgomery GI Bill®—Selected Reserve Students who believe they have an entitlement should check with their local VA Office, the regional office in Columbia (1-800-827-1000), or the School Certifying Official at The Citadel. An applicant should contact the School Certifying Official at The Citadel well in advance of the anticipated matriculation date so that the necessary documents may be obtained in order to certify attendance with the VA. All students receiving VA Educational Benefits are required to complete an online request for VA Enrollment Certification. Any changes in a student’s course of study should be cleared with the School Certifying Official to ensure continuation of benefits. Any reduction in course load should be reported immediately to avoid overpayment. Transfer students are reminded that the office must have copies of all transcript evaluations made by the Registrar’s Office before certification can be made to the Veterans Benefits Administration for payment. �  90   The Citadel Satisfactory Academic Progress In compliance with regulations governing federal and/or state financial aid programs, The Citadel is required to monitor each student to be certain that he or she is maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in his or her course of study. SAP standards are separate from The Citadel’s academic policies and are reviewed annually at the end of each spring semester. How the Policy Works Students who fail to meet published SAP standards will be ineligible to receive federal or state financial aid funds. However, those students failing to meet the minimum standards, as prescribed in this policy, may appeal their status by following outlined conditions. Academic Year The academic year for SAP determination is comprised of the fall, spring, and summer terms. Minimum Standards Unsatisfactory academic progress is defined as a failure to meet any of the following standards: Undergraduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 12 hours/semester) must earn 24 credit hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 12 hours. b. Part-time students (enrolled in less than 12 hours/semester) must earn at least 66% of the credit hours attempted in an academic year. 2. GPA - A student’s GPA must meet the required minimum for their grade level according to The Citadel’s academic policies for continuance. a. 1.3 with < 39 attempted hours b. 1.5 with 40-69 attempted hours c. 1.7 with 70-99 attempted hours d. 2.0 with > 99 attempted hours 3. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 207 hours (more than 150% of program length. Graduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 9 hours/semester) must earn 18 credit hours in an academic year.

GPA - A student must earn at least a 3.0 grade point average. 3. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 150% of the student’s program length. �Financial Aid and Scholarships 91 SAP Appeal Students who have not met SAP have the opportunity to complete an appeal to regain eligibility for federal aid. Completion of this process does not guarantee reinstatement of federal financial aid. Students are responsible for full payment of tuition/fees regardless of financial aid status. It is also the student’s responsibility to be aware of and to meet all fee payment and financial aid deadlines. The SAP Appeal Packet is available on the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarship’s webpage at citadel.edu. The SAP Appeal must include: 1. A completed SAP Appeal Form and Academic Improvement Plan approved by the Student Success Center and signed by both the advisor and the student, and 2. A letter written by the student that defines why the student failed to make SAP and what has changed that enables the student to meet SAP at the next evaluation. If a student fails to either regain regular SAP eligibility after one semester or meet the conditions of the Academic Improvement Plan, the student is ineligible to receive federal financial aid (Title IV aid). Appeal Deadlines Completed appeal forms must be turned in two weeks before the end of the term for which the appeal is filed. Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: “A”  Superior “B”  Very Good “C”  Satisfactory; Acceptable “D”  Marginal; Passing “F”  Unsatisfactory “P” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that do not carry credit hours to designate passing performance. “S” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that carry credit hours to designate that a grade of “A”, “B” or “C” has been earned and credit has been awarded. “U” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses and in ENGL 101 to designate that a grade of “D” or “F” has been earned and no credit has been awarded. “W” Withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline. “I”  An Incomplete is awarded when course requirements have been very nearly met but for authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. “IP” Grade assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed in the next full semester, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” �  92   The Citadel Students who are enrolled in audit courses will not receive financial aid for these courses. Students can access midterm progress and semester grade reports online by using BANNER Self-Service through the Lesesne Gateway portal. Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA/Grade Replacement The regulatory definition for full-time enrollment status (for undergraduates) has been revised to allow a student to retake (one time only per previously passed course) any previously passed course. For this purpose, passed means any grade higher than an “F”, regardless of any school or program policy requiring a higher qualitative grade or measure to have been considered to have passed the course. This retaken class may be counted towards a student’s enrollment status, and the student may be awarded Title IV aid for the enrollment status based on inclusion of the class. A student may be repeatedly paid for repeatedly failing the same course (normal SAP policy still applies to such cases), and if a student withdraws before completing the course that he or she is being paid Title IV funds for retaking, then that is not counted as his or her one allowed retake for that course. However, if a student passed a class once, then is repaid for retaking it, and fails the second time, that failure counts as their paid retake, and the student may not be paid for retaking the class a third time. Transfer Credits When evaluating SAP, a student’s transfer credits, accepted by The Citadel toward completion of the student’s degree program, will count as both credit hours attempted and hours earned. Change of Major Students who have changed majors and earn more than the maximum allowable number of credit hours toward graduation will be required to submit a SAP Appeal. Second Degrees Students who are completing a second degree will be required to submit a SAP Appeal to explain the reason behind earning more than 150% of allowable credit hours. Financial Aid Funds Covered by SAP Standards Federal Pell Grant Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) Federal Work Study Federal Direct Loan, subsidized and unsubsidized Federal Direct PLUS Loan South Carolina Teachers Loan South Carolina Palmetto Fellows Scholarship South Carolina LIFE Scholarship South Carolina Need-Based Grant Other federal/state programs as required Some Private Educational Loans (as required by the lender) �Financial Aid and Scholarships 93 Financial Aid Refund and Repayment Policy Refunds The Higher Education Act of 1998, Public Law 105-244, substantially changed the way funds paid toward a student’s education are managed should the student, as a recipient of federal financial aid, withdraw from school. If a student who was awarded financial aid withdraws from school, he/she is eligible for the “institutionally-determined-refund” that remains after the immediate repayment of the financial aid award to the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships (please see the Expenses Section of this catalog). This policy also applies to students on whose behalf a parent has borrowed a Title IV loan. Refunds are returned to the programs that awarded the student aid. In the case of federal funds, a statutory schedule is used to determine the amount of Federal Financial Aid that has been earned based on the period the student was in attendance. Up through the 60% point, in each payment period of enrollment, a pro rata schedule is used to determine how much Federal Financial Aid the student will receive. After the 60% point in the payment period of enrollment, a student has earned 100% of the federal funds awarded for the period. The percentage earned will be calculated based on the following schedule: Week 1   6 percent Week 2 12 percent Week 3 18 percent Week 4 25 percent Week 5 31 percent Week 6 37 percent Week 7 Week 8 Week 9 Week 10 Week 11-16     43 percent 50 percent 56 percent 60 percent 100 percent For example, if a student has received $1,000 in Federal Financial Aid and withdraws within the first week of classes, that student will receive 6 percent ($60) of the aid award applied to total charges. The remaining $940 will be returned to the Federal Financial Aid programs in the following order: •   Unsubsidized Student Loans •   Subsidized Student Loans •   PLUS Loans •   Federal Pell Grants •   Federal SEOG Grants •   Other Assistance under Title IV The refund and repayment provisions mandated by the Federal government for Federal Aid Recipients apply when a student receives financial aid funds and withdraws, drops out, takes an unapproved leave of absence, fails to return from an approved leave of absence, is expelled, or otherwise fails to complete the period of enrollment for which he or she was charged. The refund and repayment requirements DO NOT APPLY to a student who: �  94   The Citadel •   Withdraws, drops out, or is expelled before his or her first day    of class, or •   Withdraws from some classes, but continues to be enrolled in other    classes, or •   Does not receive funds for the period in question. (Students whose    parents received a PLUS Loan are considered to have received funds    and fall under the stated refund and repayment requirements.) Repayments If a student’s non-instructional educational expenses (allowances as prescribed below) incurred up to the time of withdrawal exceed the amount of cash disbursement, the student does not owe a repayment. If cash disbursed exceeds the noninstructional costs of education incurred up to the time of withdrawal, the student does owe a repayment. This repayment is the difference between costs incurred and the actual cash refund received. Non-instructional expenses are determined by calculating the percentage of room, board, books, supplies, travel, and personal expenses incurred during the portion of the term a student is enrolled. Off-campus board and personal expenses are prorated on a weekly basis. There is no proration of on-campus room charges. A percentage of books, supplies, and travel costs is allowed based on length of enrollment. Student aid accounts to be refunded and repaid Once the amounts to be refunded and/or repaid are determined, the aid programs from which the student received funds will be reimbursed in the following order: •   Federal Direct/Stafford loans •   Federal PLUS loans received on behalf of the student •   Federal Pell Grants •   Federal SEOG Grants •   Other Title IV programs •   Federal, state, private, or institutional student financial    assistance received by the student for which refunds are required •   The student �Intercollegiate Athletics 95 Department of Intercollegiate Athletics The mission of the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics at The Citadel is to develop, maintain, and continue to improve a well-rounded program of athletics geared to the aims and objectives of The Citadel, the Southern Conference, and the National Collegiate Athletic Association. In order to carry out this mission, all athletics personnel must be familiar with the athletics policy as approved by the Board of Visitors and the President of The Citadel: The Citadel policy on intercollegiate athletics includes a balanced program covering a broad spectrum of sports for men and women. The College will support this program to enable its representatives to be competitive in every respect. The Citadel will compete as a Division I institution under current NCAA and Southern Conference regulations. The athletics program will be conducted within the aims, standards and objectives of The Citadel as a comprehensive military college providing a quality education. The Department of Athletics is committed to gender and minority equity in all of its programs. In addition, for the safety and welfare of student-athletes, The Citadel maintains full-time certified trainers, a college surgeon, and special orthopedic doctors to provide medical support services. The Citadel is a member of the NCAA with Football Championship Subdivision classification and Division I classification in all other sports. In addition, the college is a member of the Southern Conference, which is comprised of The Citadel, East Tennessee State University, Furman University, Mercer University, UNC-Greensboro, Samford University, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, Virginia Military Institute, Western Carolina University, and Wofford College. The Sports Program The Citadel Department of Intercollegiate Athletics sponsors 16 varsity teams including football, basketball, cross country, wrestling, indoor and outdoor track, baseball, rifle, and tennis for men; and golf, soccer, volleyball, rifle, cross country, and indoor and outdoor track for women. Each year, nearly 400 cadets participate as players, managers, or student trainers. The Citadel’s intercollegiate teams are led by qualified coaches who are concerned with the overall development of the cadet-athlete. The graduation rate of Citadel athletes always ranks among the best of the Southern Conference. Facilities Athletic facilities at The Citadel are among the finest in the Southern Conference. Home football games are played in historic Johnson Hagood Stadium, a 11,000-seat facility built in 1948. The Bulldogs celebrated the re-opening of the West Stands at Johnson Hagood Stadium for the 2006 season, and in 2008, �  96   The Citadel the West Side Tower opened its doors to The Citadel Family. The completed project features luxury suites, club seats, a state-of-the-art press box and all the expected amenities of a modern-day facility. The field was named Sansom Field in 2008, commemorating the loyalty and generosity of distinguished and active alumnus, William B. Sansom, ‘64. In the fall of 2001, the Altman Athletic Center opened. Located in the south end zone, the Center houses home and visitors’ locker rooms, officials’ rooms, and an entertainment area for The Citadel Brigadier Foundation. In the summer of 2020, the field was replaced with state of the art artificial turf due to the generosity of William B. Sansom, '64. McAlister Field House, which houses the Athletic Department staff and several coaches’ offices, was built in 1939 and renovated in 1989, and a new floor was installed in 2016 due to the generosity of Jimmy and Mary Reed. Seating over 5,000 for Bulldog basketball games, McAlister Field House also serves as home of the volleyball and wrestling teams as well as the site for graduations, concerts and a variety of other events. Additional locker rooms have also been added to the Field House. In the summer of 2011, due in large part to private donations, The Citadel basketball program completed an overhaul of the basketball locker room. The main section of seat back stands has been renovated in the summer of 2020 due to the financial collaboration of the institution and athletic department. Next to McAlister Field House is Vandiver Hall which opened in 1991 and provides the Bulldog soccer, baseball, wrestling, golf, volleyball, cross-country and track and field teams with a modern and well-equipped facility. Dressing and locker rooms, a golf driving range, a wrestling room, and a baseball batting tunnel are a few of the features of Vandiver Hall. Seignious Hall, which is located directly behind Vandiver Hall, houses the football coaches’ offices and the football locker room. Also located in this facility are a spacious weight room, equipment room, and training room. The Donald C. Bunch Courts at the Earle Tennis Center, which has often served as the site of the Southern Conference Men’s and Women’s Championships, receive a significant amount of play year-round. The women’s soccer team utilizes WLI Field along the Ashley River while the track and field teams use a track surrounding a multi-purpose turf field which was upgraded in 2018. The track was also resurfaced in 2018 due to a collaborative effort of donors and the institution to provide a five lane rubberized surface. In April 1997, The Citadel’s baseball team moved into the new, state-of-the-art Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park, located on the banks of the Ashley River. The 6,000seat park, which has hosted the Southern Conference Baseball Championship on several occasions, features the Bulldog locker room, luxury suites, an indoor batting tunnel and a state-of-the-art video board. The Citadel utilizes nearby College Park as a practice site during the year. The indoor rifle range, Inouye Markmanship Center, opened in the fall of 2005. Located behind WLI Field along the Ashley River, this facility allows for general firearms training for the entire Corps of Cadets, enhanced ROTC firearms training, and increased opportunities for Rifle and Pistol Team practices. �Honors Program 97 The Citadel Honors Program The Citadel Honors Program provides exceptional learning experiences for outstanding students whose aptitudes and interests indicate that they will take full advantage of the strong student-teacher relationship and inquiry-based learning that the Honors Program experience offers. Honors courses will augment the current curriculum of The Citadel by offering selected students an alternate means of education grounded in the methods of discourse and interdisciplinary intellectual inquiry. Honors students will apply their drive to excel to become leaders in not only the classroom but also the corps and the community. The Honors Program encourages students to intermingle their academic focus with a positive impact in student clubs, athletics, volunteer efforts, ROTC units, the Corps of Cadets, and The Citadel community as a whole. The Honors Program is an autonomous program of The Citadel, with an Honors Director serving as the head of the program. The Director is responsible for recruiting and admitting Honors students, reviewing courses which are proposed to meet Honors requirements and selecting those which will be included in Program offerings, critiquing Honors courses and the performance of the faculty leading them, establishing and enforcing entrance and exit requirements, serving as the Honors Advisor for all Honors students, establishing and monitoring the operating budget for the Honors Program, and coordinating the Honors Program requirements with those of the academic majors. The Honors Council is comprised of members of the faculty who have taught Honors courses the previous semester. The Honors Council will advise and assist the Honors Director in the governance of the program. The Honors Students’ Association is comprised of academically proficient participants or past participants in the Honors Program. Its purpose is to promote closer association among participants in the Honors Program, to provide a student forum for discussion of the Honors Program and its operation, and to assist the Honors Council. Honors Learning Objectives The Honors Program enhances The Citadel experience through a rigorous, student-driven, interactive, multidisciplinary approach to academic and experiential learning. The Honors Program has adopted five learning outcomes that are met through self-directed and active learning and immersive engagement in their selected discipline, professional field, and The Citadel experience. • Honors students will achieve cross-discipline intellectual agility illustrated through the ability to analyze and synthesize a broad range of material. • Honors students will cultivate self-directed learning practices that promote life-long curiosity and continual personal and professional growth. • Honors students will become more independent and critical thinkers, demonstrating the ability to use knowledge and logic when discussing an issue or an idea, while considering the consequences of their ideas, for themselves, for others, and for society. • Honors students will build intergenerational, multidisciplinary networks and connections to community to enhance their academic, leadership, and personal development. • Honors students will develop and implement effective written and oral communication skills. �  98   The Citadel Admission and Retention In addition to securing for admission to The Citadel, interested students must apply separately for admission to the Honors Program. Formal essays, recommendation letters, and personal interviews at minimum are required as part of the application process. The Honors Director will evaluate all applications and select participants based upon the strength of the student’s application, evaluating previous academic performance, class rank, personal interview, essay responses, recommendation letters, extracurricular activities, leadership potential, and intellectual and academic promise. Applications are available online at www.citadel. edu/honors. Selections will be made on a rolling basis; early applications are strongly encouraged. Interested high school students should apply early during their senior year, no later than October 1 in order to be fully considered for selection and all scholarships, and no later than February 1. There is no application fee. Current cadets with strong academic and cadet performance at The Citadel may apply for admission to the Honors Program. Interested cadets should contact the Honors Program Director to express interest and complete an application which includes a formal essay, one letter of recommendation from a Citadel faculty member, and an interview. With the Director's permission, academically-strong students may be admitted to individual Honors courses on a space-available basis; in such cases, the Honors courses will meet General Education or elective requirements as appropriate. Students in the Honors Program must maintain a minimum 3.00 GPA in their Honors courses, a minimum 3.00 overall GPA, and exhibit conduct that reflects positively upon The Citadel and fellow Honors Program students. The Honors Council will review the record of any Honors student whose academic performance or cadet conduct do not meet requirements and will take appropriate action, including establishment of a probationary period or separation from the Honors Program. Any academic requirements pertaining to scholarship retention, regardless of Honors Council actions, will be dictated by the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships. Honors Program Curriculum The Honors Program is designed to provide an exceptionally broad background of cultural knowledge and learning skills that students can then apply to their chosen areas of academic specialization. Most of the Honors Program curriculum will come in courses designed to be taken in lieu of General Education requirements. Honors Program students will satisfy their General Education Strand requirements by completing Strand courses designated as Honors. The Honors General Education courses will not follow a single strand but will be offered across all Strands. The emphasis in Honors courses will not primarily be acceleration but enrichment. The courses will go into extra depth, examining more closely the significance and implications of the material studied or presenting that material in a broader cultural context. In general, it is expected that Honors courses will employ discussion in order to establish habits of rigorous inquiry and intellectual independence. Additionally, Honors course will introduce opportunities for examining and communicating the external, multidisciplinary causes and impacts of a topic. �Honors Program 99 The motivation behind the Honors curriculum is to create an environment of learning in which the students’ independent intellectual habits are further developed. The patterns and processes of intellectual and scholarly inquiry will be taught, not merely the results of other people’s having conducted that inquiry. Many Honors course will have a tutorial component; students will meet individually or in small groups with their instructors to discuss and develop ongoing writing, research, and laboratory projects. An additional key component of the Honors Program experience is the Personal&Professional Development tutorials. Each year, the Honors Director meets with every sophomore, junior, and senior in the program once a month to engage in a program of research, writing, discussion, and strategizing about the student’s post-graduate goals, focusing on graduate school and career goals. Curricular Requirements There are two levels of Honors Program completion. The top level, referred to as the Gold Seal level, requires the completion of eight Honors Program courses. The alternate level, referred to as the Certificate level, requires the completion of five Honors Program courses. The Certificate level is particularly designed for those who are admitted to the Honors Program after their first semester at The Citadel. Furthermore, all Honors Program students, at both the Gold Seal and Certificate level, will be required to complete the entire, six semester Personal and Professional Development series. Honors Program Gold Seal: Eight (8) Honors courses plus Personal & Professional Development tutorial series (6-semester) ALL MAJORS: Honors Freshman Seminar: Honors FSEM 101 Honors Freshman Writing Intensive: Honors FSWI 101 Honors Strand English: Honors ENGS 30x Honors Strand History: Honors HISS 30x Honors Strand Social Science: Honors SCSS 30x Honors Junior Leadership: LDRS 371 (designated Honors sections) Honors Personal & Professional Development (HONR 211, 212, 311, 312, 411, 412) PLUS For majors requiring Calculus Honors Mathematics I: HONR 131 Honors Mathematics II: HONR 132 OR For majors that do not require Calculus Honors Strand Elective: Honors ELES 30x One (1) additional Honors course selected from available Honors ELES, ENGS, HISS, NTSS, or SCSS 30x; HONR 131 or 132; Honors Independent Research I/II HONR 400/401) �  100   The Citadel Honors Program Certificate: Five (5) total Honors courses plus Personal & Professional Development tutorial series (6-semester) Five (5) total Honors classes (selected from available Honors ELES, ENGS, HISS, NTSS, or SCSS 30x; HONR 131 or 132; Honors LDRS 371; Honors Independent Research I/II HONR 400/401) Honors Personal & Professional Development tutorials (HONR 211, 212, 311, 312, 411, 412) Honors Program Recognition Students who complete the Honors Program Gold Seal requirements will be recognized as Honors Program graduates in The Citadel commencement ceremony, will receive an Honors Program certificate plus an Honors Seal on their Citadel diploma. A notation will be added to their official college transcript to indicate they have completed the Gold Seal requirements of the Honors Program. Students who complete the Honors Program Certificate requirements will be recognized as Honors Program graduates in The Citadel commencement ceremony, will receive an Honors Program certificate. A notation will be added to their official college transcript to indicate that they have fulfilled the Certificate requirements of the Honors Program. Unlike Honors program Gold Seal students, they will not receive an Honors Seal on their diplomas. Honors Courses Honors First-Year Academic Seminar Students enrolled in the Honors Program may meet The Citadel’s General Education requirements for freshmen by successfully completing these two courses. Students who join the Honors Program after the first semester may satisfy The Citadel’s requirement by completing the non-Honors sections of the freshman seminar and linked writing intensive courses. Honors FSEM 101 Honors Freshman Seminar Three Credit Hours This seminar will focus by engagement with big questions, both contemporary and enduring. Each seminar will have its own unique theme, addressing the main learning outcomes. This course will pair with the freshman writing intensive topic. Honors FSWI 101 Honors Freshman Writing Intensive Three Credit Hours This course will pair with the freshman seminar topic, focusing on relevant literature and techniques of composition as the students engage the topic in writing. Honors Math Honors Program students whose majors require two semesters of Calculus will complete these Honors Math classes in lieu of MATH 131/132. HONR131/132 Honors Mathematics I/ II Three Credit Hours This sequence will teach calculus within the context of its development from the civilization which produced it and its impact on civilization since. Topics covered will closely match those in MATH 131/132 but will include an additional emphasis on implications, applications, and depth of understanding. �Honors Program 101 Prerequisite for HONR 131: B or higher in MATH 119; 3 or higher on the AP Calculus exam; by placing in through The Citadel’s Mathematics Placement Exam; by transfer credit for MATH 131 from another college; or by permission of the Chair of the Department of Mathematical Sciences. Prerequisite for HONR 132: C or higher in HONR 131; B or higher in MATH 131. Students enrolled in the Honors Program may meet the General Education requirement in mathematics by successfully completing HONR 131/132 in lieu of all other two-semester Math sequences required by their major, including MATH 131/32 and MATH 106/107. Students who successfully complete the first semester of Honors Mathematics and then cease to participate in the Honors Program can fulfill the General Education requirement in mathematics for their major, if required, by completing approved classes including MATH 106, MATH 107, STAT 160, or MATH 132. Honors Strands Courses Honors Strands courses will develop students’ skills, confidence, and independence in six essential areas: quantitative literacy, written communication, critical thinking, inquiry and analysis, intercultural knowledge and competence, and ethical reasoning and action. Honors Strands classes will also have a strong multi-disciplinary component, require significant independent thought, and contribution to classroom discourse. Honors Program students will not select a single strand theme but will instead be offered courses from each of the strands. These classes will strengthen student's multidisciplinary knowledgebase and encourage a deeper understanding of multiple relevant world themes. Honors Strands classes will be offered every semester. These courses will satisfy the General Education Strands English (ENGS 30x), History (HISS 30x), Social Science (SCSS 30x), and Elective (ELES 30x) requirements. (The x in 30x will be based on the course's relevant strand theme.) Individual degree plans differ, but, as a rule, students will begin taking these Honors Strands classes in the first semester of their second year and will complete them in senior year. Honors ENGS 30x: Honors Strands English Three Credit Hours Honors HISS 30x: Honors Strands History Three Credit Hours Honors SCSS 30x: Honors Strands Social Science Three Credit Hours Honors ELES 30x: Honors Strands Elective Three Credit Hours Honors Leadership Honors LDRS 371 Honors Junior Leadership Seminar Three Credit Hours This course considers various theories of leadership and their role in critical organizational issues. Using case studies and experiential components, this section of LDRS 371 is specifically designed to engage Honors Program and select Leadership Studies students in hands-on learning and practice opportunities. Honors Research The Honors Program curriculum does not have a research or thesis requirement as most students will be engaged in rigorous research as part of a capstone course within their major. However, Honors students are encouraged to engage in independent research either in preparation for or in addition to this capstone work. �  102   The Citadel HONR 400/401 Honors Directed Research I/II Three Credit Hours Students conduct research under the direction of faculty members. The research need not be original with the student but may be part of a project which the faculty member is currently conducting or has conducted in the past. Before registering for an Honors Research course, students will work with the Honors Director and the supervising faculty to develop appropriate scope and research deliverables. An extra-departmental second reader or evaluator will be required for all projects. Students may complete multiple research courses, either continuing a single project over multiple semesters or researching multiple unrelated topic. HONR 401 designates a project as a continuation of a previous HONR 400 course. Honors Research may be counted as an Honors Strand Elective (ELES 30x.) Honors Personal and Professional Development Tutorial Series HONR 211/212/ Honors Personal and Professional Three Credit Hours 311/312/411/412 Development Ia/Ib, IIa/IIb, IIIa/IIIb (Pass/Fail) Taught entirely in tutorial, this sequence directs students in a three-year program of research, writing, and discussion on the subject of their professional goals, encouraging them to envision their leadership in their future profession and guiding them in exploring through research and writing the ideals as well as the practices of that profession. During these tutorials, students will work on preparation for job interviews (e.g., refining their resumes and developing strong interview skills), for post-graduate schooling (e.g., refining personal statements and other vital application materials), and for post-graduate prestigious scholarships (e.g., developing a plan for creating the experiences, connections, and written materials required). One credit hour (Pass/Fail) will be granted upon the completion of both 211a and 211b. An additional one credit hour (Pass/Fail) will be granted upon the completion of both 311a and 311b. A final one credit hour (Pass/Fail) will be granted upon the completion of both 411a and 411b. This entire six-semester series must be completed to fulfill the Gold Seal and Certificate requirements of the Honors Program. �Undergraduate Curriculum 103 The Undergraduate Curriculum All of the degrees in The Citadel’s undergraduate day program have two basic curricular components—the major curriculum and the General Education curriculum. Students enrolled in the South Carolina Corps of Cadets have additional curricular requirements including classes in Leadership, Physical Education, and ROTC. The Major Curriculum The curriculum of each major consists of carefully selected required courses. These required classes are generally offered in the home department of the major, but a major may also have specific non-departmental class requirements. So, for example, a student majoring in Physics takes not only required Physics classes but several required Mathematics classes, as well. The curriculum of each degree program may also contain elective classes. Electives fall into two basic categories, approved or general. • • Approved electives are chosen by students from a list of courses determined by the individual degree program. Approved electives fulfill major requirements and may be either departmental or non-departmental. General elective classes fulfill degree requirements, but they do not otherwise count for major or General Education requirements. General elective hours may be applied towards academic minors. Major work is offered in the following areas: • Accounting • Biochemistry • Biology • Chemistry • Civil & Environmental Engineering • Computer Engineering • Computer Science • Construction Engineering • Criminal Justice • Cyber Operations • Electrical Engineering • English • Exercise Science • Finance • History • Intelligence & Security Studies • Management • Marketing and Business Development • Mathematics • Mechanical Engineering �  104   The Citadel Modern Languages, Literatures, & Cultures in French, German, or Spanish • Modern Languages with Teaching Specialization in French, German, or Spanish • Nursing • Physics • Physical Education • Political Science • Psychology • Secondary Education in Biology, Chemistry, ir Social Studies • Sport Management • Supply Chain Management • For detailed courses of study for each major, please refer to the appropriate department or school’s section of the catalog. The General Education Curriculum With the 2019-20 academic year, The Citadel began a new General Education program, replacing the Core Curriculum that had been in effect for more than fifty years. The new strands-model General Education described here is required for all students matriculating in the day program since the fall of 2019. The old Core Curriculum, described in earlier catalogs, remains in effect for students who matriculated prior to 2019. The Citadel’s new General Education program has two related purposes: 1. Promoting our students’ intellectual development by affording them coursework in the fundamental academic disciplines of mathematics, natural science, literature, history, and social science; and 2. Developing our students’ skills and dispositions in six essential areas: quantitative literacy, written communication, critical thinking, inquiry and analysis, intercultural knowledge and competence, and ethical reasoning and action. Students begin the General Education program in their first year and continue to take General Education classes throughout their college careers. The Curriculum has been designed to offer both progressively challenging standards and a significant amount of choice. The General Education program has been developed so that, upon successfully completing the curriculum, graduates ought to be able 1. To use quantitative reasoning skills to make calculations, interpret data, communicate results, and evaluate an issue or solve a problem; 2. To communicate ideas in a logical sequence, demonstrating control of syntax and mechanics and the ability to integrate credible and reliable sources; 3. To analyze complex issues that have varying positions and assumptions using information from credible sources, and to state positions, create new positions, and acknowledge other positions including implications and consequences; 4. To demonstrate skill in inquiry and analysis, including using a design process, synthesizing information from relevant sources, drawing conclusions, and recognizing implications and limitations; �Undergraduate Curriculum 105 5. To demonstrate insight into their own cultural rules and biases, to have accurate understandings of other cultural world views, and to display attitudes of curiosity, openness, and empathy; 6. To recognize ethical issues when presented in a complex, multilayered (grey) context, to analyze cross-relationships among the issues, and to evaluate ethical perspectives and concepts, including his or her own. The components of the General Education program are as follows: First-Year Mathematics Every first-year student will enroll in at least one mathematics class. The specific class will vary depending on the student’s degree program. The classes that fulfill this requirement are the following: • • • • • • • MATH 104 MATH 105 MATH 106 MATH 118 MATH 119 MATH 131 STAT 160 First-Year Science Every first-year student will enroll in at least one science class. This class will be a four-credit unit, three credits for the lecture and one for the lab. The classes will vary depending on the student’s degree program. The classes that fulfil this requirement are the following: For • • • • • For • • • • • • • non-STEM majors: ASTR 105/155 ASTR 106/156 BIOL 105/115 CHEM 105/115 CHEM 106/116 STEM majors: BIOL 101/111 BIOL 130/131 BIOL 150/151 CHEM 140/141 CHEM 151/161 CHEM 153/163 PHYS 221/271 �  106   The Citadel First-Year Academic Seminar The Freshman Seminar is a six-credit unit composed of two three-credit classes taken concurrently—FSEM 101 and the thematically-linked writing intensive FSWI 101. Every first-year student will enroll in this six-credit unit. The individual seminars, all of which focus on important questions or problems, introduce students to the demands of academic work. Student assignments in the seminars are tied to the six essential General Education outcomes (quantitative literacy, written communication, critical thinking, inquiry and analysis, intercultural knowledge, and ethical reasoning). Seminar students begin to do signature work, “synthesizing, analyzing, and applying cumulative knowledge and skills through problem- or inquiry-based assignments or projects.” Here are the course descriptions of the two three-credit components of the Freshman Seminar: FSEM 101  Freshman Seminar Three Credit Hours Corerequisite: FSWI 101 In FSEM 101 the student will be challenged to complete assignments that are tied to the learning outcomes of The Citadel's General Education program. The individual sections of the seminar are designed to appeal to a wide range of student interests, but all are focused on important questions that call for mature study and reflection. Each individual seminar is linked with a thematically-related Writing Intensive class (FSWI 101). FSWI 101  Freshman Seminar (Writing Intensive) Three Credit Hours Corequisite: FSEM 101 The Writing Intensive half of the six-credit hour Freshman Seminar develops a student's skills in academic writing. Starting with brief compositions and progressing to a full-length research paper, students work on key writing challenges such as organizing ideas, developing content, and presenting evidence. Each individual Writing Intensive class is linked with a thematically-related section of FSEM 101. Physical Fitness, Resiliency, and Wellness In keeping with The Citadel’s traditional commitment to developing the whole person, RPED 260: Physical Fitness, Resiliency, and Wellness is a required General Education class to be taken either in the first or second year. Professional Communication All students hone their skills in written communication by enrolling in a class that prepares them for the kinds of writing they will need to do in their careers. The classes will vary depending on the student’s degree program. The classes that fulfil this requirement are the following, unless the student's major requires an alternative be taken: • • COMM 216 COMM 260 �Undergraduate Curriculum 107 Modern Languages All students are required to demonstrate some competence in a modern foreign language (except for those pursuing degrees in the School of Engineering and the School of Education). Most students will enroll in two three-credit classes of language instruction according to the following guidelines. • Students who choose to study a different foreign language than the one they studied in high school must pass both semesters of the elementary level of the new language (101 & 102). • Students who choose to study the same language that they studied in high school will take a placement test. There are three possible results of this test: 1. Students who demonstrate proficiency in the language will be exempted from the two-class elementary language requirement (102-level) but will be required to take two upper-level language classes instead. 2. Students who place into the elementary level of the language will be required to take 102 and 201. 3. Students who place into the intermediate level of the language will be required to take 201 and 202. Ultimately, students who place into a level may choose to enroll in course at a lower-level; however, the lower level course will count as an elective and not towards their language requirements. These students must still complete the appropriate two three-credit hour classes for their placement level. Students who wish to enroll in Chinese must contact the Chinese section chief. For a student whose native language is not English, the language requirement at The Citadel is automatically waived, and the student is allowed to substitute general electives for the waived language courses. Strands Classes The strands classes are the heart of The Citadel's new General Education program. At the end of their first year, all day program students choose to concentrate on one of the following five themes (with associated course prefix in parentheses): • Technology & Innovation • Conflict & Resolution • Citizenship • Wellness • Nature & Sustainability The students then enroll in a series, or strand, of classes, all organized according to the theme they have chosen. In following the same theme through different classes, students should be able to attain a deep understanding of their strand’s topic. The work that they do for these classes ought to reflect this deepening of understanding as they progress through the strand. Moreover, the students’ progression through the strands classes ought to promote their grasp of the General Education learning outcomes. Strands classes will be offered every semester. Individual degree plans differ, but, as a rule, students will begin taking these strand classes in the first semester of their second year and will complete them in senior year. The classes may be special topics classes designed to address the strand theme, or they may be existing classes adapted for the theme. �  108   The Citadel Each thematic strand contains classes in English, History, Natural Science, and Social Science. Most students will take all four of these strand classes. Students pursuing degrees in the School of Engineering and certain other STEM fields will take English Strand, History Strand, and Social Science Strand but will substitute a lab Science class determined by their major for the Natural Science Strand. Here are the generic course descriptions for these four strand courses. Note that the final digit of the course number (given in the generic description as X) will refer to the specific strand itself. So strand classes numbered 301 will be in the Technology & Innovation strand; 302 will be Conflict; 303, Citizenship; 304, Wellness; and 305, Nature & Sustainability. ENGS 30X English Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant works of literature reflective of the specific theme of the strand. HISS 30X History Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant periods or problems in History tied to the specific theme of the strand. NTSS 30X Natural Science Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant topics or problems in the Natural Sciences tied to the specific theme of the strand. Topics to be addressed will be drawn from the academic disciplines of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. SCSS 30X Social Science Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant topics or problems in the Social Sciences tied to the specific theme of the strand. Topics to be addressed will be drawn from the academic disciplines of Anthropology, Criminal Justice, Economics, Education, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology. To go with the classes in English, History, Natural Science, and Social Science, every strand also has a requirement for an elective. Some degree programs have chosen to require LDRS 202: Principled Leadership in American Government and Society to satisfy the strand elective. Students in degree programs not using LDRS 202 as the strand elective have two ways to fulfill the elective requirement. They may take an Elective Strand class, or they may enroll in an additional ENGS, HISS, NTSS, or SCSS class from their strand. Here is the generic course description for the Elective Strand class: ELES 30X Elective Strand Three Credit Hours A study of significant topics or problems tied to the specific theme of the strand. Topics to be addressed will be drawn from any academic discipline other than English, History, or the disciplines associated with the Natural and Social Science strand classes. America’s Constitutional Heritage The Citadel has created a new three-credit class, LDRS 202: Principled Leadership in American Government and Society, which will be required as part of General Education starting in the fall of 2021. This new class will “provide instruction in the essentials of the United States Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, �Undergraduate Curriculum 109 the Emancipation Proclamation, the Federalist Papers, and the study of American institutions and history, including African-American history, and ideals.” This class meets the criteria established by South Carolina law. Depending on the degree program, this class will replace either a general elective or the required strand elective. The Third-Year Leadership Seminar The new Junior Leadership Seminar will be offered as part of General Education beginning in the fall of 2021. The student signature work assignments in the seminar will deal with leadership issues and will be assessed according to the students’ performance on the essential General Education outcomes (quantitative literacy, written communication, critical thinking, inquiry and analysis, intercultural knowledge, and ethical reasoning). Senior Capstone Class Before graduating, every student in the undergraduate day program must successfully complete a capstone class in which the six essential General Education outcomes are assessed by means of a signature work project. The capstone class will in many cases be part of the student’s major curriculum. But some degree programs do not require a capstone class, and other degree programs have capstone classes that do not assess the six General Education outcomes. In those cases, students will take capstone classes taught through General Education. These General Education capstone classes will be taught for the first time in the fall of 2022. Additional Curricular Requirements for the Corps of Cadets Students in the South Carolina Corps of Cadets must successfully complete additional coursework in Leadership, Physical Education, and ROTC. These additional courses are graduation requirements. Required Physical Education Every cadet must complete at least two 100-level RPED activity classes. Leadership Cadets must successfully complete the following courses during their cadet careers: • Leadership 101: The First-Year Experience (1 Credit Hour) LDRS 101 provides academic and life skills to help students make a successful transition to college as well as to the unique environment of The Citadel. Students will develop their academic skills (reading, listening, note taking, test taking, time management, research, etc.) and will be introduced to campus facilities, resources, and support services. Some attention will also be given to lifestyle and relationship issues. A student must have the approval of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs to withdraw from LDRS 101. �  110   The Citadel • Leadership 211: Sophomore Seminar Service Learning Lab (0 Credit Hour) The Sophomore Service Learning Lab provides cadets with a hands-on learning experience in the community. Students will select an approved service learning option to complete a minimum of ten hours of service. Students will select service sites based on their interests and availability. Service hours must be documented in GivePulse and verified by the Krause Center Service Learning & Civic Engagement (SLCE) team. This pass/fail course is offered in the fall semester, spring semester, or with professor approval in the summer. Students studying abroad may be able to complete this course while abroad, depending on location. Please contact the SLCE team or Office of Study Abroad to determine eligibility. • Leadership 311: Junior Ethics Enrichment Experience (JEEE) (0 Credit Hour) The Junior Ethics Enrichment Seminar is a one-day experiential seminar that develops ethical decision-making skills. Students learn how to resolve complex ethical challenges and discuss the importance of character in becoming ethical leaders. Generally, this seminar will be completed on Leadership Day during the fall semester. Students who are unable to attend LDRS 311 on Leadership Day must take the course during the spring semester. Completion of the Junior Ethics Enrichment Seminar is a graduation re¬quirement. • Leadership 411: Senior Leadership Integration Seminar (0 Credit Hour) LDRS 411 is a full-day professional development seminar that allows cadets to examine their personal values and the leadership lessons learned at The Citadel in the context of their future career goals. Students engage with business, government, and community partners to connect classroom learning with the professional world. Generally, this seminar will be completed on Leadership Day during the fall semester. Students who are unable to attend LDRS 411 on Leadership Day must take the course during the spring semester. Completion of the Senior Leadership Integration Seminar is a graduation requirement. ROTC All cadets must satisfy an ROTC requirement for every semester during which they are enrolled at The Citadel or until they have completed eight semesters or met graduation requirements. All freshman and sophomore cadets (i.e., those classified 4A, 4B, 3A, 3B) must successfully complete a Basic ROTC class in every semester in which they are enrolled. The classes that fulfill this requirement are as follows: • AERO 101, 102, 201, & 202 • MLTY 101, 102, 201, & 202 • NAVL 101, 102, 201 & either 202 (Marine Corps) or 210/220 (Navy) Cadets in their third and fourth years (i.e., those classified 2A, 2B, 1A, 1B) have a choice of how to fulfill their ROTC requirements. �Undergraduate Curriculum 111 Those who are pursuing a commission will enroll in one Advanced ROTC class per semester. The classes that fulfill this requirement are as follows: • AERO 301, 302, 401, & 402 • MLTY 301. 302, 401, & 402 • NAVL 303, 304, 402, & 403/452 (Marine Corps) or 310, 311, 410/420, & 403/452 (Navy) Those junior and senior cadets who are not pursuing a commission will not enroll in the Advanced ROTC classes; instead, they will enroll in one ROTC-fulfillment course per semester. All non-commissioning cadets should take LDRS 371, Leadership in Organizations, as one of these fulfillment classes. The remaining courses may be chosen from a wide variety of classes in the Leadership Minor, leadership-oriented courses in students’ major fields, and other high-impact practice courses such as internships or undergraduate research courses. Academic Minor A minor is defined as a course of study that enables a student to make an inquiry into a single discipline or to investigate a particular topic across the boundaries of two or more disciplines. In either case, the minor is not simply a specified number of credit hours, but a well-defined program. A minor should complement the student’s major and not simply expand it with more courses in the same field. For this reason, students may not ordinarily pursue both a major and minor in the same discipline. However, in the case where a discrete topical minor is administered by the student’s major department, an exception may be in order. A minor consists of an ordered series of courses totaling at least 15 credit hours, at least 12 of which must be other than General Education courses and courses specified for major or other minor requirements and at least 6 of which must be at the 300/400 level. At least 9 hours of the minor must be organized in a logical sequence of required courses which provides general direction for the student’s study. At least 9 hours in the minor must be completed at The Citadel or in a Citadel Study Abroad Program. The student must earn a grade-point average of at least 2.000 on all coursework completed in the minor. Requirements for the minor must be completed concurrently with requirements for the student’s major. A student who meets all requirements for an approved minor will have both the major and minor indicated on the transcript. Requirements for each minor are presented in the appropriate academic school or department section of this catalog. �  112   The Citadel LIST OF MINORS Please refer to the department or school for a list of requirements.

Francis Hipp Chair: Wilford Assistant Professor: Abdoh Instructors: Alvis, Irwin, Meeks, Stunda Overview The Department of Accounting and Finance prepares graduates for successful careers in the financial services industry. The department offers two majors: accounting and finance. Students will have the opportunity to excel in a strong area of study leading to a degree that directly impacts a business’s success. Accounting and finance are interrelated fields that measure, analyze and evaluate the performance of an organization. The function of these two majors is complementary as accountants and financial analysts work closely together in both corporate and non-corporate settings. Faculty are dedicated to providing a high-quality educational experience, enhanced by research and professional interaction. Citadel alumni have achieved distinguished careers in accounting and finance, blending their academic work with the core values and principles of the institution.

Chapman Chair of Management and Ethics: Todd Assistant Professors: Bezjian, Villafranca Instructors: Sharma, Swartwood Overview The Department of Management and Entrepreneurship offers those who pursue a major through the department an opportunity to prepare themselves deliberatively, rationally, and intentionally to develop careers as principled leaders in their future endeavors. Engagement in management and entrepreneurship classes within the department prepares students to lead diverse individuals, recognize opportunities, and make sound critical decisions as they proceed in their career. The Department offers a major in management. The Department is also responsible for two minors: business administration and entrepreneurship. The curriculum builds the basics of business fundamental knowledge, ethical decision-making and allows students to recognize the trends of today’s business environment. Students are exposed to a unique blend of classroom and applied experiential learning opportunities to aid them in selecting and helping prepare them for their chosen career in today’s dynamic economy. As a principled manager and entrepreneur, students will develop the knowledge and skills to build trust, inspire commitment, lead change, work in and lead teams, harness people’s creativity and enthusiasm, recognize opportunities, find shared vision and values, share authority and responsibility. The program provides content and guidance regarding how to assess the moral and ethical dimensions of business decisions in a principled manner. All students in the Management and Entrepreneurship Department are strongly encouraged to do an industry internship—this is supervised work experience related to their desired career objective. Innovation Lab The Department oversees the Baker School of Business Innovation Lab – a small operation with a large undertaking as it operates as an idea hub for entrepreneurially-minded students across campus. The Lab’s mission is to “create principled change agents of innovation that solve complex problems.” To achieve this, we teach students to think creatively using a variety of means to solve problems of all sizes. �Department of Management & Entrepeneurship 133 Major in Management The object of the management major is to prepare students with the management skills and acumen, technology exposure, quantitative knowledge and recent management topics in the discipline for a wide range of career options existing. The program provides students with up to date research in the management field as a sound foundation for their career development in many rapidly evolving industries. This program provides professional skills and robust understanding of the value of our free enterprise system, ethical business practices, business analytics, strong communication skills, small and medium business development, and experience with cutting-edge tools, platforms, and channels. There is strong demand for graduates with these degrees. The management major consists of 24 credit hours (four required courses; four elective courses) designed to contribute to a robust understanding of management and entrepreneurship. Courses will build upon and contribute to a logical career path (e.g., taking a psychology course in human behavior because the future career path is in the residential real estate industry). The management major also includes four general elective courses. General elective courses can be within any subject area, must be at least three credit hours, must be an academic course (cannot be an ROTC course), and cannot already be required or fulfill another degree requirement. Students majoring in management must also complete required core business classes and achieve a grade of “C” or higher in each course.

While approximately fifty percent of the undergraduate student body is from the state of South Carolina, students from across the United States are involved in education programs at The Citadel. Reciprocal arrangements with other states and the accreditation/ approvals of the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP), and the Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC) facilitate certification in all fifty states. Statement of Philosophy The philosophy of the Zucker Family School of Education at The Citadel is based on five fundamental propositions. These propositions serve to orient the mission and conceptual base of the School, guide the actions and value system of the faculty, shape the curricula of the various programs, and provide to its faculty their sense of purpose and meaning for teaching, scholarship, and professional service. These five propositions are: (1) The faculty is committed to promoting education for all individuals to the fullest extent possible. With the implementation of appropriate teaching and assessment strategies, a fundamental guiding belief is that all students, though having unique learning styles and experiences, are capable of learning. (2) It is the educator’s responsibility, with the aid of appropriate resources and support, to establish a mutually respectful environment where effective learning occurs for all students. (3) Education is a systematic effort to facilitate the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values necessary for the student to function in a diverse society. �  164   The Citadel (4) The faculty is committed to upholding the highest professional standards in all situations in which they model these standards to students through their teaching, research, and service endeavors. (5) The faculty is committed to an open interchange of ideas wherein the perspectives of all are valued. The School’s Mission The mission of the Zucker Family School of Education at The Citadel is to support the development and preparation of individuals who are knowledgeable about the learning process and learners and who are effective, ethical, and reflective educators prepared to assume leadership roles in the profession and community. Further, with a focus toward learner-centered education, they are effective in educating a diverse learner population to high academic standards. The mission is based on the School’s philosophy and conceptual model. Conceptual Framework of The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit Developing Principled Educational Leaders for P-20 Schools The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit prepares principled educational leaders to be knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals. Candidates completing our programs are committed to ensuring that all students succeed in a learner-centered environment. The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit is committed to the simultaneous transformation of the preparation of educational leaders and of the places where they work. Specifically, The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit seeks to develop principled educational leaders who: • have mastered their subject matter and are skilled in using it to foster student learning; • know the self who educates (Parker J. Palmer) and integrate this self knowledge with content knowledge, knowledge of students, and in the context of becoming professional change agents committed to using this knowledge and skill to ensure that all students succeed in a learner-centered environment; and • exemplify the highest ethical standards by modeling respect for all human beings and valuing diversity as an essential component of an effective learner-centered environment. The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit is committed to high-quality, evidence-based educator preparation that assures educators are ready to work effectively with all learners. Our vision is to transform our cadets, evening undergraduate students, and graduate students into principled educational leaders prepared to produce learning environments in which all students can be successful. Our initial programs for teacher candidates focus on developing educators prepared for highly diverse learners, including students with disabilities, those from economically disadvantaged communities, and those who are culturally, ethnically, and linguistically diverse. Our advanced programs are focused on preparing professional leadership and service roles in P-20 settings. �Zucker Family School of Education 165 The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit has identified 15 performance indicators for candidates to demonstrate that they are principled educational leaders who are knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals: Knowledgeable Principled Educational Leaders… 1. have mastered the subject matter of their field of professional study and practice; 2. utilize the knowledge gained from developmental and learning theories to establish and implement an educational program that is varied, creative, and nurturing; 3. model instructional and leadership theories of best practice; 4. integrate appropriate technology to enhance learning; 5. demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning.

Ethical Principled Educational Leaders… 11. demonstrate commitment to a safe, supportive, learning environment; 12. embrace and adhere to appropriate professional codes of ethics; 13. value diversity and exhibit a caring, fair, and respectful attitude and respect toward all cultures; 14. establish rapport with students, families, colleagues, and communities; 15. meet obligations on time, dress professionally, and use language appropriately. Director of Teacher Education The Director of Teacher Education is the college official charged with the responsibility for the development, implementation, administration, and monitoring of all teacher education activities at The Citadel. The director assures that all Citadel programs meet the standards and criteria set forth by: 1.  The South Carolina General Assembly 2.  The South Carolina Department of Education 3.  The Council for Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) �  166   The Citadel Teacher education at The Citadel is dedicated to the development of teachers for the public schools of the state and nation. Teacher education programs prepare students to teach in secondary schools (grades 7-12). In addition, a program for K-12 certification is available in physical education (see the Department of Health and Human Performance section for additional information) and in modern languages (see the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures, and Cultures for additional information). Admission to the Major Admission to an Education Major at The Citadel is a three-level process. Students should read this section carefully so that this process is well understood. Assignment to Pre-Education Students who are interested in the teaching profession are first assigned to Pre-Education, Pre-Physical Education (Teaching Track), or to modern language majors that include a concentration in teacher education. For those interested in Physical Education (Teaching Track), please refer to the requirements of the Department of Health and Human Performance. At the Pre-Education level, it is the student’s responsibility to achieve passing scores—as determined by the South Carolina Department of Education—on the PRAXIS Core Academic Skills for Educators tests. Students should take the PRAXIS core exams during their sophomore year and are responsible for ensuring that official records of passing scores are on file at The Citadel. Also, students—in consultation with their faculty advisors—are responsible for following the appropriate curriculum. In addition, students need to pay attention to their cumulative grade point average (GPA) since a 2.5 cumulative GPA is required for admission into teacher education junior level study. Admission to Education Major To be admitted to the teacher education senior level study or to content majors that include a concentration in teacher education, the student enrolled in pre-education must have the support of his or her advisor relative to suitability and interest (e.g., dispositions) in teacher education and must also have: 1. official passing scores on all three parts of PRAXIS core exams on file at The Citadel; 2. maintained a cumulative Grade Point Average of 2.5 or higher on at least 45 credit hours of coursework taken at The Citadel; 3. passed EDUC 101 and EDUC 202. �Zucker Family School of Education 167 Admission to the Internship in Teaching (EDUC 499 or PHED 499) Students must make a formal application for admission no later than the beginning of the fall semester of their junior year. The internship is not normally offered to students in fall semesters. This application will be reviewed by the Committee on Admissions and Retention and will include, among other things, recommendations from professors in completed professional education and content area courses, recommendations from general education faculty, and an evaluation by the student’s advisor regarding the student’s suitability and interest in teacher education. In addition, the student must have: 1. completed all professional education courses and content coursework; 2. on file at The Citadel South Carolina State Department of Education clearance through the FBI and SLED; 3. a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5; 4. completed successfully all previous field experiences; 5. on file at The Citadel official records of passing PRAXIS II test score(s). It is strongly recommended that students take the Principles of Learning and Teaching (PLT) test as soon as they have completed EDUC 101, EDUC 202 and EDUC 312. The Director of Teacher Education will be informed of the results of this review and will send official notice of admission or rejection to the student. In the absence of significant extenuating circumstances, a student not eligible for the Internship in Teaching will be required to change majors. Graduation Requirements To meet graduation requirements, the Teacher Education major must complete all requirements for one of the teaching field courses of study and must have earned a GPA of at least 2.750. In addition, passing scores on the appropriate PRAXIS II and Principles of Learning and Teaching (PLT) exams must be on file at The Citadel. Completion of the curricular requirements may result in licensure by the South Carolina Department of Education. A grade of “B” or better in EDUC 499 is necessary to quality for teacher certification recommendation. The Professional Education Board To facilitate the college-wide mission of preparing principled leaders for professional education, The Citadel established (effective fall of 2006) the Professional Education Board (PEB). The Citadel PEB’s primary focus is to foster academic environments that promote the development of principled leaders for the education profession and to facilitate the continuing improvement of professional education programs across the college. In pursuing these goals, the PEB will concentrate on communication, assessment, and governance issues. The Citadel’s Dean of the School of Education chairs the Board, and it is comprised of representatives from all of The Citadel’s professional education constituencies, including faculty, staff, students, and our P-12 colleagues. PEB members are appointed by the Dean of the School of Education in collaboration with the Deans of Humanities and Social Sciences and Science and Mathematics. The Professional Education Board meets monthly during each academic year. �  168   The Citadel Minor in Education Objectives: The minor in education is designed to help undergraduate students gain knowledge of educational history, theories, laws, and policies; become familiar with aspects of student development that may impact learning; think critically about social justice issues in education; and learn differentiated instructional techniques and classroom management strategies for working with diverse learners.

Limited specialization in engineering starts during the sophomore year. In the junior and senior years, the time is devoted essentially to professional subjects. Throughout the four years, the program emphasizes the development of habits of orderly study, investigation, sound reasoning, problem-solving and design, rather than the mere acquisition of factual information. It is stressed that an engineer is a professional thoroughly grounded in engineering science and technology, but also aware of the social, economic, ethical, and ecological implications of professional activities. The Citadel’s Bachelor’s degree program in Civil Engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www. abet.org. The curriculum is augmented by off-campus educators and engineers who lecture and moderate seminars in engineering specialties. Students’ sources of knowledge are broadened by participation in these seminars and the student chapters of the American Society of Civil Engineers, Tau Beta Pi (honorary engineering society), the Society of American Military Engineers, the Society of Women Engineers, and the National Society of Black Engineers. LeTellier Hall was designed for the needs of civil engineering education and contains laboratories and six multi-media classrooms. There are three computer facilities located in LeTellier Hall. To help ensure the best use of these facilities, priority access goes to students using software or capabilities specific to the LeTellier sites. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of CIVL will count towards the major GPA. Construction Engineering Program of Study The Construction Engineering curriculum provides a broad-based education, a strong background in mathematics and basic sciences, and a rigorous sequence of civil and construction engineering courses needed to provide the breadth and depth necessary for sustainable professional success within an ever-changing technological society. An emphasis is placed on engineering and constructability knowledge and skills that develop students practical problem-solving abilities for application to real-world projects. Towards accomplishing this educational goal, the curriculum provides a two-semester senior design course in which students undertake significant real-world focused construction engineering projects. Additionally, our faculty promote and support the value of practical experience, and as a result, students are highly encouraged and supported in identifying opportunities and obtaining gainful employment in the construction engineering profession, or a related field, for at least one summer, preferably between the junior and senior years. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of CIVL and CONE will count towards the major GPA. �  182   The Citadel Main Computer Lab — LeTellier 203 LeTellier 203 is the primary teaching and student-use computer facility in the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department.

Because World War II intervened, the first electrical engineering degrees were awarded to the class of 1948. The electrical and computer engineering programs are offered in two modes—day mode and the 2+2 evening mode. The day mode is open only to members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets, military veterans, and enlisted active duty students assigned to one of The Citadel’s ROTC Departments. All cadets must take one ROTC course each of their first four semesters, one credit hour of Leadership Training, and 2 non-credit Physical Education courses. Further, all military contracted cadets continue to take ROTC course for their last four semesters. The 2+2 evening mode is open to transfer students and does not require ROTC or Health and Physical Education. Otherwise curricula, faculty, textbooks, laboratory equipment, course content, classrooms, and laboratory rooms are the same for both modes. The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department is located on the third floor of Grimsley Hall, a first-tier engineering education facility that provides fully-equipped laboratories, classrooms and faculty offices. The related Departments of Mathematics and Computer Science, Physics, Mechanical and Civil and Construction Engineering are housed adjacent to the department, creating a “micro-campus” of science and technology. The student branch of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers was established in 1962 and is an active component of the electrical engineering program. A Citadel chapter of Tau Beta Pi, the national engineering honor society, recognizes junior and senior students who meet the organization’s high academic standards. The bachelor of science electrical engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), http://www.abet.org. Mission The mission of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is to prepare the individual for professional work or for graduate study in the fields of electrical and computer engineering and to provide as many of the elements of a broad education as can be included in a program of professional study leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering. �Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering 203 In addressing its mission, the department strives, through small classes and hands-on experience in laboratories closely monitored by full-time faculty, to provide an environment highly conducive both to learning and to the development of close student-faculty relationships. Both the electrical and computer engineering curricula place emphasis on a broad liberal education base, a strong background in mathematics and basic sciences, and a logical sequence of electrical and computer engineering courses that provide the breadth and depth necessary for continuous professional growth in today’s technological society. In the junior year the students normally select an area of professional emphasis such as control systems, communication systems, electronics, or power systems. An integral part of the program is the design component that develops the student’s ability to address practical engineering problems. This is accomplished by the inclusion of engineering design problems and concepts throughout the curriculum and capped by a mandatory two-semester senior design course in which students undertake significant design projects. Convinced of the great value of practical experience, the department encourages its majors to obtain gainful employment in electrical or computer engineering or a related field for at least one summer, preferably between the junior and senior years. Program Educational Objectives Within a few years (3-5 years), Citadel Electrical and Computer Engineering graduates are expected to: 1. Succeed in the practice of Electrical or Computer Engineering, by ethically and judiciously applying engineering methods to solve problems facing a technologically complex society. 2. Sustain awareness of engineering-related issues through employment, professional development, professional registration, or graduate education. 3. Be principled leaders with strong communications and team-building skills. Student Outcomes The Citadel’s Electrical and Computer Engineering programs include assessment to demonstrate that students obtain: 1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics. 2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors. 3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences. 4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgements, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts. 5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives. �  204   The Citadel 6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgement to draw conclusions. 7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies. Electrical & Computer Engineering Curriculum The electrical and computer engineering educational experience begins in the freshman engineering fundamentals course, ELEC 106. This freshman course develops basic skills and good teamwork habits through team case studies requiring the communication of creative ideas. The second semester freshman curriculum includes 3 credit hours of computer applications. The study of electrical and computer engineering topics in the sophomore year includes 6 credit hours of electric circuit analysis, 3 credit hours of digital logic and circuits, 3 credit hours of digital systems, and 1 credit hour of electrical laboratory. Theory is combined with application, demonstration, and experimental verification. In addition the first two years include 16 credit hours of mathematics, 8 credit hours of chemistry and/or biology, 8 credit hours of physics, and general education core courses to provide the foundation necessary for an engineering education. The junior year requires a total of 17 credit hours of electrical and computer engineering course work. Breadth of coverage is provided by courses in signals and systems analysis, electronics, systems (automatic controls), digital circuits and systems and other courses specific to the major. Many of these courses include engineering design problems drawn from the experience of the faculty. There is a single elective course that must be technical in nature and outside the mainstream of electrical and computer engineering. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of ELEC will count towards the major GPA for Electrical Enginering majors. For Computer Enginering majors, CSCI courses also count towards the major GPA. The senior year provides depth in electrical and computer engineering by requiring five out of an available seventeen 400-level electrical engineering elective courses taught and at least one approved Computer Science elective. The elective courses are ELEC 307 (Nuclear Engineering), ELEC 401 (Electronics II), ELEC 403 (Electric Power Systems), ELEC 405 (Electrical Measurements), ELEC 407 (Systems II), ELEC 413 (Advanced Topics in Electrical Engineering), ELEC 414 (System Simulation), ELEC 416 (Communications Engineering), ELEC 418 (Advanced Digital Systems), ELEC 419 (Computer Network Architecture), ELEC 423 (Digital Signal Processing), ELEC 424 (Solid-State Devices), ELEC 425 (Interference Control in Electronics), ELEC 426 (Antennas and Propagation), ELEC 427 (Energy Systems Engineering), ELEC 428 (Computer Architecture), ELEC 430 (Independent Research in Electrical Engineering), ELEC 450 (Electrical Engineering Internship), and CSCI 420 (Software Engineering). These electives provide the student the opportunity to pursue an area of interest. While narrow specialization is neither possible nor desirable at the undergraduate level, these three-credit electives provide depth in both design and theory in their specialized areas. Below are several examples of possible areas of concentration available to the student. �Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering 205 Power Engineering CIVL 310 Statics and Mechanics of Materials for Non-Civil Engineers ELEC 307 Nuclear Engineering ELEC 403 Electric Power Systems ELEC 407 Systems II ELEC 405 Electrical Measurements ELEC 426 Antennas and Propagation ELEC 427 Energy Systems Engineering Communications PHYS 308 Optics ELEC 401 Electronics II ELEC 416 Communication Engineering ELEC 419 Computer Network Architecture ELEC 423 Digital Signal Processing ELEC 426 Antennas and Propagation Electronics PHYS 410 Thermodynamics ELEC 401 Electronics II ELEC 418 Advanced Digital Systems ELEC 423 Digital Signal Processing ELEC 424 Solid State Devices ELEC 405 Electrical Measurements Electrical and Computer Engineering Design Experience Engineering design is distributed throughout the electrical engineering curriculum. Introduction to the design process and the initial design experience occurs in the freshman course, ELEC 106. The engineering profession and the ethical responsibilities of professional engineers are discussed. Design problems are posed that require little or no in-depth engineering knowledge. For example, a first problem might ask the student to design a dormitory room workplace. Functionality, aesthetics, and cost of implementation are a few of the issues to be considered. Case studies are assigned that provide an opportunity for the students to work in teams. The emphasis is on the synthesis of a product that meets broad requirements. The students are introduced to the concept of design in which there is no single right answer and relatively few limits placed on the creative process. Techniques of analysis, synthesis, iteration, and approximations are studied in the sophomore and junior electrical and computer engineering courses. Specialized design exercises illustrate the use of these techniques in the areas of circuits, systems, electronics, electromagnetics, and digital systems. The senior year provides the opportunity for the student to begin to focus on design techniques in a particular area of interest through the choice of five senior elective courses. Examples range from the use of a load flow program to determine operational conditions of a small power system in a contingency situation (ELEC 403), to the design of a state estimator (ELEC 407), to the design and implementation of digital filters (ELEC 423). �  206   The Citadel The design experience culminates in the required senior design courses, ELEC 421 and ELEC 422. This two-semester design sequence provides students the opportunity to work on a project of interest and provides the faculty the opportunity to guide students in their first major design experiences and emphasize once more the various constraints that may come into play in a design. The students are taught several different structured design approaches. Project definition and documentation are stressed. Design teams of three to four students are formed at the beginning of the first semester. Students are instructed on various practical aspects of design, such as layout considerations, safety, functionality, and documentation of design. The student design teams select or propose a major design project to be completed by the end of second semester. They must enlist a faculty advisor to guide their project. At the end of the first semester the design teams present their design proposals (written and oral) that include their preliminary design (block diagram level), a schedule for the following semester, and a cost estimate. In the second semester, the teams do the detailed design and build, test, refine, demonstrate, and document their design projects. In addition to the technical aspects, project management and presentation techniques are taught and applied. A detailed project specification is developed and placed under tight change control. Financial and scheduling aspects of the project are tracked. A final presentation in both written and oral form is required at the end of the semester, along with a working demonstration.

As a pre-professional degree, English challenges students to think critically and to improve their communication skills. Course offerings cover the range of literature written in English, from the Middle Ages to our own times. The department also offers classes in creative writing, art, music, and philosophy. In preparing for careers after graduation, every student majoring in English completes at least one advanced writing class and at least one internship in professional communications. �Department of English, Fine Arts, and Communications 253 The English major consists of twelve courses (36 credit hours). With a course of studies featuring thirteen general electives, students majoring in English have the flexibility to complete a minor in a complementary field. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of COMM and ENGL will count towards the major GPA. The student majoring in English is required to take the following courses:    1. English 203 (Masterpieces of British Literature),   2. English 211 (Mythology) or 212 (The Bible as Literature)   3. English 215 (Masterpieces of American Literature) 4. English 303 or 304 (Shakespeare I or II)   5. English 402 or 403 (Senior Seminar I or II)   6. English 411 (Legal Writing) or Communications 413 (Advanced Composition)   7. Communications 499 (Internship in Professional Communications)   Five additional upper-level English courses (numbered 301 and above). Minor in English Objectives: Through the study of seminal literature and the practice of both academic and pre-professional writing, the minor in English hones the skills that people in every discipline use daily when they read, write, converse, and assert their independent ideas and opinions through these self-actualizing activities. Literature illustrates the rich interrelatedness of cultural, historical, economic, political, scientific, philosophical, and religious concerns, while encouraging individual creativity and serving as a model for cogent, graceful writing. The minor in English thus complements academic work in almost every other field, positioning the student for success in either civilian or military life. Competencies, Knowledge, and Skills to be Achieved: The English minor trains students to read analytically, synthesize information quickly, think critically, and write persuasively. These crucial transferable skills equip students to navigate an ever-changing and frequently uncertain job market. They also provide a foundation for graduate work in the humanities and for a range of pre-professional advanced degrees in fields such as business, divinity, education, law, library science, museum work, public policy, and social work. The minor in English also exposes students to a range of important literary texts, the canon of imaginative writing often called “the best that has been thought and said in the world.” Through the close analysis of literature, the minor also enables students to generate original arguments and ideas, to appreciate the nuanced range of perspectives on cultural and socioeconomic issues, to evaluate competing viewpoints, and to value diversity in an increasingly global society. �  254   The Citadel Structure of the Minor: 1. Required Courses One of the following foundational courses (3 credit hours): ENGL 201 ENGL 202 ENGL 203 ENGL 215 One of the following pre-professional writing courses: COMM 207 COMM 2l6 COMM 260 COMM 413 ENGL 411 Or another approved pre-professional writing course. 2.

Minor in Fine Arts Objectives: The minor in Fine Arts is intended to deepen an appreciation for and encourage a lifelong engagement in the fine arts, including painting, sculpture, photography, music, film, drama, and creative writing. As participation in fine arts courses, both in practice and in theory, stimulates creative thinking, such as intelligence, medicine, and law, and develops problem solving skills that are applicable to other areas of study, this minor is meant to round out The Citadel experience. Students are also encouraged to engage with the broader artistic community of Charleston through participation in events, internships, exhibitions, and performances. Knowledge and/or Skills to be Achieved: Through the foundation courses in art and music, the student will gain a broad understanding of the cultural and historical significance of the fine arts as well as applied knowledge of a variety of artistic mediums. Further courses develop the student’s interest in more specific areas, such as musical performance, emphasis on a particular visual medium, or internships in local arts organizations. This minor may not be approved for Education or English Majors unless required courses for their major do no overlap more than two classes with the minor requirements. �Department of English, Fine Arts, and Communications 255 Structure of the Minor: 1.

Furthermore, the study of history is intended to assist the student's development of critical thinking, including the analysis and evaluation of historical evidence and the ability to integrate and interpret such data. History has proven to be a useful preparation for careers in the business, legal, ministerial, military, and other public service professions, as well as a preparation for continuing study in graduate history programs.

If the student places into the intermediate level of the language, he/she will be required to take 201 & 202. The third class in the requirement may be an upper-level language class, or it may be a general elective. Students who place beyond the intermediate level will have satisfied the language requirement. They will simply take nine hours of general elective classes; these classes may be upper-level language classes. • Students who wish to study a different language than what they studied in high school will be required to take 101, 102, and 201. Minor in African American Studies (Course numbers in parentheses are those used prior to 2007.) The Minor in African American Studies is designed to underscore the contributions of people of African descent to, and their roles in, American history and to emphasize the importance of diversity to the Corps of Cadets. Through broad interdisciplinary study, the program aims to highlight an appreciation for the significant ways race, �  274   The Citadel gender, and ethnicity have combined to shape our cultural heritage while promoting the values of excellence in teaching, research, and community service. It further aims: 1. To improve student’s knowledge of the African-American experience. 2. To cultivate students’ ability to think critically, to express themselves effectively, and to respect cultural and gender diversity. 3. To encourage faculty to share their expertise with the community and to maintain a community service component which promotes special classes, symposia, forums; the result will be a contribution to the intellectual, cultural, and ethical growth of The Citadel and the community. Administration: The minor in African American Studies is supervised by a Steering Committee that consists of one representative from each of the constituent departments within the minor. Each department will choose its representative on the Steering Committee. In consultation with the committee, the Dean of Humanities and Social Sciences will appoint one of its members to serve as overall Director of the Minor. The Director and the Steering Committee will meet at least once each semester (fall and spring) to plan activities related to, and set appropriate policies for, the minor. The Director will have primary responsibility for administering those activities and policies, will serve a term of three years, and may be renewed by the Dean for an additional term with the advice and consent of the Steering Committee. Directors will submit annual reports on the minor to the Dean of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences. Structure of the Minor: The minor will consist of 5 courses (15 credit hours).

Statement of Purpose: War Studies is inherently interdisciplinary, bridging the humanities and sciences to equip the future leaders and officers of the 21st-century. Through the study of conflicts past and present, the Minor in War Studies bolsters the essential skills that are the bastion of a Citadel education: critical thinking, concepts of leadership, and a complex understanding of the global environment. The Minor in War Studies thus complements academic work in almost every other field of study at The Citadel and is a natural complement to the institution’s core mission. The Minor in War Studies trains students to think critically, to synthesize diverse fields of data, to broaden horizons, and to communicate persuasively. These transferable skills are vital to leadership positions across society in the 21st century: not only within the military, but also within the civilian and security job markets, where critical thinking about real-world problems is crucial to success. II. Administration: The Minor in War Studies is overseen by a steering Committee on War Studies, headed by a Director for the Minor. The Committee on War Studies shall comprise three members, one from History, one from the remainder of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, and one from the School of Science & Math. The Director for the Minor shall be selected from among the three. Each member serves renewable two-year terms. III.

HIST 359 Silk Roads and Nomadic Empires Three Credit Hours This course looks at the history of the caravan trade routes across Eurasia that have become known as “The Silk Road.” The significance of these trade routes lies in the fact that they ensured the distribution and mixing of luxury goods, religions, technologies, literatures, and peoples from one end of Eurasia to another.

Moreover, the wealth generated by the silk roads often inspired the creation of nomadic empires that had an immense effect on the great agrarian civilizations that bordered the steppes. Through their immense military strength and prowess, these nomadic empires often significantly affected the history of the outlying sedentary civilizations.

The course examines the major characters, campaigns, and combatants of the Seven Years’ War in the Americas, Europe, Africa, and Asia. �Department of History 293 HIST 380   World War I Three Credit Hours This is a course on the Great War, the reality of which does not quite meet the stereotype. While there was the stalemate of the trenches, there was great movement in the East and even in the West in the last year. During the war, armies virtually rearmed with new weapons and retrained, adopting new tactics. Mass assaults gave way to storm squads; cavalry gave way to armor and aircraft. The squandering of lives led to mutinies. Economies saw unprecedented mobilization. It was total war, at a cost of 5,500 lives every day for a 1,500 day war, and one can argue that the outcome was far more cataclysmic than that of the Second World War. HIST 382  History of Military Leadership Three Credit Hours This course examines the many historical models of military leadership from the ancient world to the present, with emphasis on trends in strategy, tactics, management, and civil-military relations. Successful military leadership has meant many different things at different levels of command and in different places and times, and yet there are some qualities of leadership that have proved enduring.

This course proceeds from the premise that the military history of the United States is best understood from a combination of “traditional” military history (an emphasis on battles and commanders) and “new” military history (an emphasis on politics, diplomacy, economics, technology, gender, society, and culture). HIST 385 Greek and Roman Warfare Three Credit Hours This course examines the waging of war in the ancient Mediterranean, particularly among the Greeks and Romans. It explores cultural attitudes toward war, the institutions that supported the waging of war, the actual progress of campaigns and battles, technological and tactical innovation, and consider in what ways or to what extent the warfare of the Greeks and Romans represents the heritage of modem war. The course also carries with it several kinetic modes: making and painting shields, experimenting with Greek and Roman formations. HIST 386 World War II in the Pacific Three Credit Hours This course will examine the Pacific theater of World War II. The class will examine the causes of the conflict and the course of its military campaigns. The course will devote attention to air, land, and naval combat.

While keeping in mind the interplay between diplomacy and domestic developments, the course will focus on fundamental questions such as: Are America’s international relationships primarily motivated by a drive for security and prosperity? To what degree have Americans embraced a national mission to spread liberal, democratic values abroad? To what extent have cultural undercurrents influenced American diplomacy? Major topics will include America’s rise to global power, the World Wars, the Cold War, ideology, the military-industrial “complex,” U.S.-Latin America relations, the international arms trade, and relations in the Middle East. HIST 389  The Global Cold War, 1917-1991 Three Credit Hours The Cold War was arguably the twentieth century’s most significant long-term conflict. This course takes an international perspective on its varied causes and consequences in Europe, the Americas, Asia, and the Middle East. We will explore diplomatic relations between several nations during this era and the many effects the Cold War had on these nations’ citizens, including the American military-industrial “complex,” the Soviet gulag, and “client” regimes in the developing world. Major topics will include U.S.-Soviet relations and nuclear diplomacy; wars in Korea, Vietnam, and Latin America; crises in Berlin, Budapest, Prague, and Cuba; decolonization and the rise of the “Third World”; “the containment doctrine”; espionage and McCarthyism; and the (surprising) end of the Cold War.

INTL 310 Intelligence Collection Systems Three Credit Hours This is a seminar course addressing intelligence collection systems and pro¬grams. Particular emphasis will be placed on intelligence collection platforms, their limitations and capabilities, and how they are used in support of national intelligence requirements. The course will also focus on how these systems and programs are planned and executed. The seminar format will emphasize student participation in the form of presentations, papers, and related discussion. �Department of Intelligence and Security Studies 307 INTL 311 US Intelligence Successes and Failures Three Credit Hours This course will examine a number of cases that aptly demonstrate the underlying operational, analytic and managerial “hows and whys” of US intelligence success and failure. Reading material will include formal Congressional inquiries, declassified official “lessons learned”, unclassified articles by former practitioners, select media commentaries, and a few academic papers. The course will conclude with an examination of the various efforts at reform, some of which have fundamentally transformed the American Intelligence Community and others that have fallen short of effecting real change. Case studies will highlight and explore the various “Ingredients for Intelligence Success” including: effective management structures and organization, well-honed collection programs and skills, well-honed analytic skills and analytic rigor, professional attentiveness and persistence, ingrained organizational cooperation, effective interagency communication and information sharing, sufficiently dedicated resources, and well-developed target understanding (via in-depth study). INTL 312 America’s Drone Campaign Since 9/11 Three Credit Hours Drones are used by both the civilian and military intelligence community as a new weapon in the fight against international terror. They serve as both collection platforms (Signals and Geospatial Intelligence) and weapons delivery systems. In this course, students will learn about the development and history of drones, their operational and tactical employment, and how they have changed the face of war. We will also explore the legal and ethical ramifications of their use against military targets and terrorists. INTL 401 Intelligence Support to Three Credit Hours Military Operations Since the days of Sun Tzu, intelligence collection and analysis has provided “decision advantage” to military commanders at both the tactical and strategic levels. In today’s complex battle space, good intelligence often spells the difference between victory and defeat. In this course, students will learn the importance of intelligence for the warfighter, the myriad collection techniques available today, and evolving doctrine as it relates to the collection and analysis of intelligence (e.g., the use of drones). INTL 402 The Military Instrument of Power Three Credit Hours A nation employs four instruments of power in order to achieve its strategic ends—Diplomacy (Political), Information, Military, and Economic. Often referred to as the DIME, these instruments provide a nation’s national leadership with a variety of unique capabilities that, when properly synchronized with one another, can support a national strategy. The purpose of this course is to improve the student’s fluency of the military instrument of power. We will investigate the range of considerations for the employment of military power once the decision has been made to do so. Thus, the goal of this class is to appreciate the theory, capabilities, and limitations for the employment of the military instrument of �  308   The Citadel power and the role played by strategic and operational intelligence in the planning for and employment of military force. INTL 403 Intelligence Capstone Three Credit Hours Prerequisite: INTL 301 Students apply the skills they have learned in prerequisite and other courses to develop an intelligence capstone project under the supervision of the instructor.

The ability to communicate effectively with the billions of non-English speakers in the realms of commerce, government, science, and the arts serves crucial national interests. Cultural sensitivity, heightened through language study, furthers our relations with the world. The language courses in the General Education curriculum cultivate four basic skills—reading, writing, listening, and speaking—with emphasis on communicative proficiency. The language minor enhances competence in the basic skills and allows for specialization in business practice, contemporary society, or literature. The language major hones fluency and imparts a detailed knowledge of life and letters. Students may pursue a B.A. in Modern Languages in French, German, or Spanish. The major is most flexible and has proven a sound preparation for coveted duty assignments, choice career opportunities in both public and private sectors, and graduate study in intelligence, business, law, or medicine. Students who excel are eligible for induction into the following national honor societies: Pi Delta Phi (French), Delta Phi Alpha (German), and Sigma Delta Pi (Spanish). In addition, students may pursue a B.A. in Modern Languages with Teaching Specialization in French, German, or Spanish. The curriculum provides a broad background in the specified language, culture, and literature to prepare the student to teach at the secondary school level. The student must make a formal application for admission to the Zucker Family School of Education for the Internship in Teaching as outlined in this catalog. Please refer to the following information regarding major GPA calculations: For the B.A. in Modern Languages, undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel in the respective language track and its corresponding prefix—FREN, GERM, or SPAN—will count towards the major GPA. For B.A. in Modern Languages with Teaching Track, undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel in the respective language track and its corresponding prefix—FREN, GERM, or SPAN—and in Education (EDUC) will count towards the major GPA. Plan of Undergraduate Major Thirty hours of coursework in the language of the student’s major starting at 201 or higher, whichever is more advanced, are required for the major. These include 201, 202, 301, 302, and at least one 400-level course. In ad- �Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures 321 dition, students must engage in one of the following high-impact “Signature Experiences”: Study Abroad (203, 204, 390, or 391), an Internship (numbers differ by language), a Capstone Course in the Major (MLNG 499) or an additional 400-level course in the language of the major. The remaining twelve hours must be selected from the non-sequenced courses in the major language (300- and 400-level). Up to 9 credit hours towards the major may be earned in an approved study abroad program. Language students pursuing a double major will have the opportunity to count 1 course (3 credit hours) from another department, which should be related to the history, civilization, or culture of the target language in which the student is majoring. The course must be approved by the Head of the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures. Therefore, after completion of the core-curriculum language requirement, at least 27 credit hours (9 courses) must be taken from the language major, and 3 credit hours (1 course) may be taken from outside the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures. Minor in Chinese, French, German, or Spanish Objectives: The minor in Chinese, French, German, or Spanish builds on skills developed in the elementary/intermediate sequence, taking the student beyond practical proficiency to more sophisticated modes of discourse and greater understanding of social norms. Competencies, Knowledge, or Skills to Be Achieved: Employing the latest technology, instruction in advanced conversation and composition expands and refines expression in social and professional contexts. Course in the Department’s various summer study-abroad programs offer total immersion and highly individualized tutorials. Courses in civilization and culture, business language, and literature, in addition to promoting greater fluency, introduce to areas of specialization within the discipline. Many language majors, recognizing the considerable advantages of versatility in the marketplace, now declare a minor in another language. Structure of the Minor (Chinese, French, German & Spanish) Required Courses: 5 courses after 201 a. 202 b. 301 or 302 (in the chosen language c. Three upper-level elective courses in the chosen language taken at The Citadel or in a Citadel study-abroad program. One of which must be at the 400-level. Total Credit Hours Required: 15 hours in one language after 201 at least 9 of which must be completed at The Citadel after the completion of the of Language placement exam. �  322   The Citadel The Minor in East Asian Studies Objectives: The minor in East Asian Studies provides well-qualified upperclassmen the opportunity to develop a secondary field of expertise in a discipline of vital national interest. Administration: The minor in East Asian Studies is supervised by a Steering Committee that consists of one representative from each of the constituent departments within the minor. Each department will choose its representative on the Steering Committee. In consultation with the committee, the Dean of Humanities and Social Sciences will appoint one of its members to serve as overall Director of the Minor. The Director and the Steering Committee will meet at least once each semester (fall and spring) to plan activities related to, and set appropriate policies for, the minor. The Director will have primary responsibility for administering those activities and policies, will serve a term of three years, and may be renewed by the Dean for an additional term with the advice and consent of the Steering Committee. Directors will submit annual reports on the minor to the Dean of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences. Structure of the Minor: Fifteen credit hours, of which six hours are in language: either CHIN 101/102, Intensive Introduction to Chinese I and II, JAPN 101/102, Intensive Introduction to Japanese I and II, at least three hours in history, chosen from: HIST 357, History of Premodern China, HIST 358, History of Modern China, HIST 359, Silk Roads and Nomadic Empires, HIST 360, History of Japan; HIST 365, Special Topics in Non-Western History and at least three hours in political science, chosen from: PSCI 337, East Asian Affairs, PSCI 338, Southeast Asian Affairs, PSCI 433, Topics in International Politics: Northeast Asian Affairs; and a three-hour elective from either history or political science, chosen from the courses listed above. Prerequisite: Because Chinese is the only Asian language offered through 202 at The Citadel, registrants for Japanese (classified as a Category IV language by the Defense Language Institute’s scale of hours required for mastery) must have completed the core requirement in Chinese (Category IV language), French, German, or Spanish (Category II languages). Competencies, Knowledge, or Skills to Be Achieved in the Language Courses: The intensive-introduction sequences develop basic practical communication through standard cognitive-code methodology. Daily study and practice of phonetics, orthography, vocabulary, grammar, syntax, idiom, and culture cultivate the four skills critical to foreign-language mastery: aural comprehension, oral expression, reading comprehension, and composition. By the end of the course, the diligent student will be able to converse intelligibly in general social situations, recognize and reproduce the phonetic alphabets and most-used characters of the pictographic writing systems, comprehend the gist of simple texts with �Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures 323 the aid of a dictionary, and write brief summaries of those texts. Total Credit Hours Required: 15, at least 9 of which must be completed at The Citadel. This minor is jointly administered by the Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures or the Department of Political Science. Credit and Scholarships for Study Abroad The Citadel currently offers study-abroad programs in French, German, and Spanish. Credit may be granted for courses in French, German, and Spanish taken abroad at other schools during the summer or the regular school year. The Albert E. Gurganus Summer Stipend ($1,000), the Deutscher Brüderlicher Bund Scholarship ($1,500), and the John Alexander Summer Scholarship ($2,000) assist qualified German majors with summer-study projects in Europe. Monetary awards sponsored by the American Society of the French Legion of Honor may be available for qualified French majors and minors participating in The Citadel’s Summer Study in France.

West Chair: Patterson Professors: Kapeluck, Mays Associate Professors: Porter, Segrest, Tenney Assistant Professors: Sun, Hostetter Instructor: Collins The Department offers an academic major in political science. This major affords students an opportunity to obtain a broad liberal arts education that enriches their lives and acquaints them with the rights and responsibilities of citizenship. The course of study for students majoring in political science begins with a set of core courses to introduce the student to the discipline. Students then have the opportunity to select from a list of specialized electives in their area of concentration and to increase their understanding of their field by taking courses in the related disciplines of anthropology, criminal justice, economics, history, psychology, and sociology as well as General Electives from other departments. As the central element of a general education, political science provides preparation for graduate education and for useful and satisfying careers. Political Science Major: The course of study for students majoring in political science prescribes a set of core courses to introduce the student to the discipline. In addition, each major must select one of the following departmental subfields for specialization in the junior and senior years. A.  American Government and Politics. B.  International Politics and Military Affairs. C.  Pre-Law and Legal Studies. The discipline of political science seeks to describe and to explain political phenomena, including both foreign and domestic political institutions, the political process, political behavior, and contemporary political and security issues. Political science also studies the relationships of individuals with their governments, including the rights and responsibilities of citizens. The major has especially strong appeal for those who anticipate careers in law and government, particularly in the Foreign Service, Department of Homeland Security and Department of State, intelligence agencies, the military services of the US Army, US Navy, US Air Force, and US Coast Guard, as well as a broad range of ancillary civilian and government organizations. Other Programs and Courses: The Department offers five minors: NonWestern Studies, American Politics, International and Military Affairs, Public Policy and Law and Legal Studies. The Department also participates in the college’s interdisciplinary minors in African-American Studies, International Criminal Justice, International Relations, Southern Studies, Leadership Studies, �Department of Political Science 351 and East-Asian Studies. For a full description of these minor programs, please refer to the appropriate entries in this catalog: Department of Criminal Justice - International Criminal Justice; Department of English - Leadership Studies; Department of History - African-American Studies, International Relations, and Southern Studies; Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures - East Asian Studies. Major Requirements: B.A. in Political Science The political science major consists of seventeen courses (51 credit hours), mostly within the department but including as well a mix of humanities and social science courses (with the exact mix depending on the subfield the student selects). In addition, it provides for eight elective courses which students may take as they choose. Students pursuing a degree in Political Science will take up to nine hours of language instruction that may or may not build on high school study: • Students who wish to study the same language at The Citadel that they studied in high school will take a placement test in that language. There are three possible results of that test. If the student places into the elementary level of the language, he/she will be required to take 102, 201, and 202. If the student places into the intermediate level of the language, he/she will be required to take 201 & 202. The third class in the requirement may be an upper-level language class, or it may be a general elective. Students who place beyond the intermediate level will have satisfied the language requirement. They will simply take nine hours of general elective classes; these classes may be upper-level language classes. • Students who wish to study a different language than what they studied in high school will be required to take 101, 102, and 201. The complete course of study is presented in the Courses of Study section of this catalog. First, each student is required to complete a specified core of six courses: LDRS 202 Principled Leadership in American Government and Society PSCI 231 International Politics PSCI 232 Comparative Politics PSCI 304 American Political Thought or PSCI 391, Foundations of Political Theory; PSCI 392, Modern Political Theory or PSCI 492, Topics in Political Philosophy and Theory PSCI * Capstone Seminar in Politcal Science PSCI 462 Constitutional Law: Civil Rights and Liberties. *course number to be determined/contact department Second, no later than the beginning of the fall semester of the junior year, each political science major must select one of the subfields for course concentration during the junior and senior years. The three subfields are Subfield A: American Government and Politics, Subfield B: International Politics and Military Affairs, and Subfield C: Pre-Law and Legal Studies. Majors must complete selected courses within one subfield of their choice. As detailed below, three of these courses are specifically required; the remaining courses are a combination of subfield electives selected from a list for each subfield, �  352   The Citadel American Politics electives (see the electives list for Subfield A), political science electives, a non-PSCI humanities/social science upper level elective, history electives, and macroeconomics (for Subfields A and C only). Inasmuch as subfield requirements vary, students are encouraged to pay careful attention to the distribution of courses in the subfield selected. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of PSCI will count towards the major GPA. All courses within a subfield are open both to majors in other departments and to political science majors who are concentrating in one of the other two subfields. Subfield requirements and electives are presented below.

Students in psychology develop an approach to learning based on empirical, objective methodology and statistical data analysis. These skills enhance critical thinking and permit theory construction and analysis. Students who graduate from this program are expected to have the knowledge base and the data analysis skills to support graduate study in any of the specialty areas of psychology. They also should be well prepared for employment in positions that require understanding and motivating others. Examples of such employment areas include positions in personnel work, social service and mental health agencies, law enforcement, sales, and business. The major in psychology aligns with the American Psychological Association Guidelines for the Undergraduate Psychology Major 3.0 (2013). The structure of the psychology major fits with the five main areas of focus advocated by the guidelines: 1) emphasis on the basic knowledge of concepts in the discipline in psychology; 2) emphasis on scientific methods and critical thinking; 3) emphasis on ethics, social responsibility, and diversity; 4) emphasis on effective communication skills; and 5) emphasis on professional development. The major program in psychology, which leads to the Bachelor of Arts degree, consists of a minimum of 36 hours of course work in psychology, including PSYC 211 (or PSYCH 201), PSYC 202, PSYC 203, PSYC 303, PSYC 310, PSYC 405, and PSYC 410. Students also will choose two courses from both Cluster A and Cluster B classes. Cluster A consists of PSYC 302, PSYC 311, PSYC 314, PSYC 318, PSYC 402, and PSYC 403. Cluster B consists of PSYC 304, PSYC 305, PSYC 306, PSYC 312, PSYC 313, PSYC 315, PSYC 316, and PSYC 317. The total number of classes across both clusters will be four. Students will also select one additional elective class from either Cluster A or Cluster B; alternatively, a special topics class (PSYC 463) may be used to satisfy this particular elective requirement. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of PSYC will count towards the major GPA. The department also offers elective courses to majors in other academic disciplines. The Department of Psychology offers graduate degree programs leading to the Ed.S. degree in School Psychology and the M.A. in Psychology: Clinical Counseling. �Department of Psychology 379 The Department of Psychology also sponsors the Psychology Club, which is open to all students interested in the study of human behavior regardless of their major. The club seeks to stimulate and maintain interest in scholarship and service and to promote closer social and intellectual association among students. Psi Chi, the national honor society in Psychology, has a Citadel chapter open to undergraduate majors or minors with a 3.000 average who rank in the top third of their class. Psi Chi activities promote scholarship and research that prepare students for graduate school or other future endeavors in psychology. Minor in Psychology Objectives: The Psychology Department recognizes that students from many diverse fields and areas of interest (e.g., business administration, pre-law, pre-med, education, law enforcement, and the military) may benefit from more in-depth knowledge of the behavioral sciences. The minor in psychology is designed to allow students maximum flexibility in choosing courses to complement their current major. Competencies, Knowledge or Skills to be Achieved: Students minoring in psychology have the opportunity to enhance their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Students will also develop the ability to review the scientific literature and communicate their findings through multiple media (oral presentations, written papers, and paper presentations at conferences). The curriculum for the minor has been arranged to maximize the flexibility needed to match the student’s individual career goals while at the same time ensuring a knowledge of the broad areas of psychology. This minor is not approved for students majoring in psychology. Structure of the Minor: 1. Required Courses: (9 credit hours) PSYC 201 General Psychology PSYC  203 Research Design in Psychology PSYC 303  Experimental Psychology 2. Electives: (6 credit hours) Choose two additional Psychology courses.

From a more applied persepctive, physics is used to solve practical problems, often to advance technology to positively impact humanity. Physics is particularly concerned with those aspects of nature which can be formulated in terms of principles and laws reduced to their essence and expressed in an elegant and concise mathematical form. The Department of Physics at The Citadel provides a comprehensive curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics as well as undergraduate education in basic physics through calculus-based and non-calculus based introductory sequences. The department sponsors a section of the Society of Physics Students and the physics honor society Sigma Pi Sigma to provide fellowship for physics majors and other students of similar interests and to make available extracurricular activities which illustrate that physics in practice is a vital and active discipline. I.  Bachelor of Science degree in Physics. This degree is designed to offer students a thorough education in physics at the undergraduate level and to prepare them for technical careers or to pursue graduate study in physics or related areas as appropriate to their career aspirations. Professional physicists have traditionally experienced careers in education, industry and government, but a sound knowledge of basic physics has become increasingly important to other areas of endeavor as well. For example, a strong undergraduate background in physics is considered essential to a career as a commissioned officer in one of the high-technology branches of the Armed Forces. The curriculum for the B.S. degree in physics begins with a one-semester introduction to physics course followed by a three-semester basic course in physics for engineers and physical scientists, a calculus-based sequence which emphasizes fundamental principles and problem solving, and which also includes a weekly two-hour laboratory each semester. The sophomore, junior and senior years include upper-division courses in analytical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, computational physics, electronics, thermodynamics, optics, modern physics, and quantum mechanics. Research planning, participation, and presentation give students an opportunity to apply physics to a theoretical or experimental project or to the design and construction of apparatus. �Department of Physics 501 The program for physics majors retains flexibility in that a student who does not intend a profession in physics may, at the discretion of the department head, replace up to six credit hours of physics courses numbered above 300 with courses numbered above 300 in other science fields. II.  Physics courses for majors in other fields. As a service to other departments, two separate basic physics sequences are individually designed to meet the requirements of specific groups of disciplines. All basic physics sequences have concomitant laboratories. For non-science majors and biology majors, PHYS 203/253 and PHYS 204/254 (College Physics) constitute a survey sequence which emphasizes basic principles, as well as some exciting developments of modern technology. For the students majoring in physical sciences, engineering, mathematics, and those preparing to be secondary school teachers in general science or physical science, PHYS 221/271 and PHYS 222/272 (Physics with Calculus) cover the fundamental principles of physics using more advanced mathematical tools. PHYS 223/233 is a continuation of this sequence covering modern physics and research tools. Descriptive courses in foundations of astronomy, ASTR 105, 106, 155, 156, and in elementary astronomy, ASTR 201 and ASTR 202; flight, PHYS 241; and meteorology, PHYS 243 are provided as electives. A student may not use both PHYS 203/204 and PHYS 221/222 in meeting degree requirements, nor can a student take the 203/204 sequence after completing PHYS 221/222. However, should a student whose major does not require PHYS 221/222 complete PHYS 203/204 and then decide, for whatever reason, to complete the calculus-based sequence, PHYS 221 and 222 may satisfy General Elective requirements. All undergraduate courses taken at The Citadel with a subject prefix of PHYS will count towards the major GPA. Minor in Aerospace Science Objectives: The minor in aerospace science is designed to allow a student an opportunity to acquire an understanding of aerodynamics in the broad sense.

The program utilizes core leadership courses and interdisciplinary courses to engage students in broad learning about leadership in applied contexts. At various points, the interdisciplinary curriculum allows students to tailor the focus of their study toward individual and career interests. The Department oversees credit-bearing academic leadership courses (LDRSprefix), including Principled Leadership in American Government and Society (LDRS 202) and Leadership in Organizations (LDRS 371) required of all cadets. A minor in Leadership Studies addresses learning, scholarship, and critical thinking about leadership from various analytical perspectives and, as a result, gives students a broad understanding of the nature of effective, ethical leadership. This academic minor complements the “leadership laboratory” aspect of cadet life at The Citadel. All upper level Leadership Studies courses and Leadership minor courses serve as ROTC fulfilment classes for juniors and seniors in residence. Minor in Leadership Studies The minor in Leadership Studies consists of courses from the Department of Leadership Studies and a number of other academic departments. The minor highlights and reinforces the centrality of leadership in the Citadel experience. The minor in Leadership Studies is intended for students who wish to supplement their study with a scholarly consideration of the subject of leadership, as applied to their major field. Leadership Scholars will undertake a minor in Leadership Studies. Objectives: The minor in Leadership Studies addresses learning concepts and critical thinking about leadership from various analytical perspectives and, as a result, gives students a broad understanding of the nature of effective, ethical leadership. This minor complements the “leadership laboratory” aspect of cadet life and the development of leadership skills gained through required leadership courses at The Citadel. The minor focuses on building an understanding of the nature and concepts of leadership through interdisciplinary study employing historical, political, literary, psychological, and organizational approaches to the subject. Whereas ROTC courses and participation in the structured, hierarchical regimen of the Citadel Corps of Cadets teach the students discipline, perseverance, respect for authority, and the ability to lead, the minor in Leadership Studies builds on those practical �Department of Leadership Studies 515 experiences with a scholarly focus on the subject. Looking at the dynamics and theoretical models of leadership, the various courses examine leadership questions and challenges, not only with respect to effectiveness, but also in their ethical aspects—such as diversity and inclusion, power dynamics, and questions of duty versus individual responsibility. Structure of the Minor: The minor in Leadership Studies consists of five courses (15 credit hours total): Leadership in Organizations (LDRS 371); Experiential leadership course (LDRS 433(W), 433(1), and 433(2); Senior Leadership Seminar/Project (LDRS 401); as well as two approved academic electives from the schools/departments of Education; English; History; Leadership Studies; Health and Human Performance; Political Science; and Psychology.

Instruction at all levels centers around leadership. The program includes instruction in basic combat techniques, physical training, weapons, general military subjects, tactics, and communication skills. Selected cadets have the opportunities to attend military schools and unique training opportunities. In addition to the schooling opportunities, cadets will have the opportunity to serve as “Third Lieutenants” with an active Army unit for two to four weeks in the Cadet Troop Leadership Training (CTLT) Program. The Citadel also has one of the largest Simultaneous Membership Programs (SMP) in the nation. This program is a volunteer officer training program which allows Army National Guard and Army Reserve enlisted members to also participate in the Advanced ROTC course leading to a commission in one of the reserve components. Military Science is a four-year program of instruction, divided into a twoyear Basic Course and a two-year Advanced Course. The first year (Military Science I) addresses the role of the individual soldier through instruction and practical training in the areas of physical training, marksmanship, first aid, map reading, U.S. weapons, and leadership. The second year (Military Science II) builds upon the first, through the development of more advanced individual skills such as land navigation, basic individual combat techniques, and small unit tactics and leadership. Students transferring into Army ROTC from another service and seeking a commission, or students at cross-town universities with a ROTC crossenrollment agreement, that have not taken Army ROTC Basic course classes (MLTY 101 to 202) will attend the Basic Camp at Fort Knox, Kentucky prior to enrollment in the Army ROTC Advance Course. Basic Camp is a four week basic instruction program designed to accommodate alternate entry into the Army ROTC Advance Course through hands-on training and granting of Basic Course credit upon successful completion. The Army ROTC Advance Course is restricted to students contracted to commission in the Army and to students pursuing a contract to commission.

In addition, honor includes integrity; “doing the right thing when no one is watching.” Finally, honorable behavior includes exercising the moral courage to “do the right thing when everyone is watching.” The Honor Code is the foundation of our academic enterprise. Duty: embraces the need to accept and accomplish the responsibilities assigned as a member of the campus community. Citadel students hold themselves and others accountable for their actions, and put service before self. Respect: empathizes to treat other people with dignity and worth – the way you want others to treat you. Respect for others eliminates any form of prejudice, discrimination, or harassment (including but not limited to rank, position, age, race, color, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, physical attributes, etc.). In addition, respect for others means to respect the positions of those in authority that include faculty, staff, administrators, active duty personnel, and the leadership of The Citadel. Finally, respect includes a healthy respect for one’s self. Mission As a higher education institution, The Citadel’s mission is to educate and develop our students to become principled leaders in all walks of life by instilling the core values of The Citadel in a disciplined and intellectually challenging environment. A unique feature of this environment for the South Carolina Corps of Cadets is the sense of camaraderie produced through teamwork and service to others while following a military lifestyle. The Citadel strives to produce graduates who have insight into issues, ideas, and values that are of importance to society. It is equally important that Citadel graduates are capable of both critical and creative thinking, have effective communication skills, can apply abstract concepts to concrete situations, and possess the methodological skills needed to gather and analyze information. Throughout its history, The Citadel’s primary purpose has been to educate undergraduates as members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets and to prepare them for post-graduate positions of leadership through academic programs of recognized excellence supported by the best features of a military environment. The cadet lifestyle provides a structured environment that supports growth and development of each student’s intellect, character, discipline, and physical fitness; The four pillars which define The Citadel experience. A complementary purpose of The Citadel, realized through The Citadel Graduate College, is to provide the citizens of the Lowcountry and the State of South Carolina opportunities for professional development by offering a broad range of educational programs of recognized excellence at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. These programs are designed to accommodate the needs of non-traditional students seeking traditional and demanding academic challenges. Institutional Characteristics. The Citadel is a coeducational, comprehensive, public, four-year institution whose primary undergraduate student body consists of approximately 2400 members of the Corps of Cadets, all of whom reside on campus. The primary service area for these students is regional, with approximately half of each freshman class coming from South Carolina. The Citadel, however, does draw undergraduate students from all parts of the United States and many foreign countries. The college offers a wide range of baccalaureate degree programs across five academic schools in the humanities, social and natural sciences, business administration, engineering, and education. These academic programs prepare graduates for a variety of careers; about half of these graduates enter business and the professions, a third or more enter the military and government service, and the remainder go directly into graduate and professional study. Many graduates choose to pursue professional or graduate degrees later in their careers. Through its evening undergraduate and graduate programs, The Citadel serves a degree-seeking population of approximately 1,300. Meeting the needs of the Lowcountry in terms of instruction, public service, and research, including such initiatives as cooperative programs with other educational institutions, is an important part of The Citadel’s mission. Together, the Corps of Cadets, the Transfer Program, and The Citadel Graduate College enroll approximately 3,600 students, about three-fourths of whom come from South Carolina. In its educational programs, The Citadel acknowledges and endorses the teacher-scholar ideal, recognizing that the excellence of all of its academic programs is dependent upon the quality of its faculty. This ideal manifests through teaching and lecturing, researching, writing, publishing, and public service. The Citadel’s faculty also address audiences beyond the College by sharing their knowledge with other scholars and with the public. 6 CGC Academic Catalog �The Citadel Graduate Program’s Mission/Purpose An important component of a positive educational experience for students involves an intentional effort to meet their needs and offer service that underscores The Citadel’s commitment to principled leadership. Service: Creating a culture that values service, fosters mutual respect, and makes the student’s needs the most important priority; implementing new technologies that enhance our services; and providing timely, efficient, and accurate information to all requests. Performance: By ensuring a quality educational experience through administrative oversight of programs and the regular review of policies and procedures; conducting analysis of existing data and generating reports to identify patterns and trends within the undergraduate programs; creating research opportunities for students and faculty; and assisting departments with implementing creative delivery methods of academic programs. Integration: By providing welcoming and rewarding experiences, online students and evening undergraduates, both past and present, feel a part of the larger Citadel community and play an important and significant role on campus.

CGC Academic Catalog 7 �Purpose of the CGC Catalog Admission and Enrollment Policies This catalog should not be construed as the basis of a contract between a student and The Citadel. Every effort is made to provide information in the catalog that is accurate at the time the catalog is prepared. However, information on regulations, policies, fees, curricula, courses, and other matters is subject to change at any time during the period for which the catalog is in effect. Application and Admissions Each program of study shall be governed by the program requirements in effect on the date of enrollment. If a student withdraws from the college or fails to maintain enrollment for one year and subsequently returns, the catalog requirements in effect at the time of return will prevail. Any exception to policies in this catalog, purported to have been made verbally to a student by an official of the college, are null and void unless documented with a signed statement from the college official authorized to make the exception. This catalog is not an unchangeable contract but an announcement of the current policies. Implicit in each student’s matriculation at The Citadel is an unwritten agreement to comply with the institution’s rules and regulations, which The Citadel may modify to ensure the quality of its academic programs. When graduation requirements are changed, every effort will be made to insure that the new requirements can be met by the student’s original expected graduation date. Nonetheless, each student is expected to read and be aware of the policies and procedures contained in the catalog in order to assure that admissions, registration, and graduation procedures are being followed. The college cannot assume responsibility for a student who does not comply with policy or procedure. The Citadel Graduate College seeks to enroll students whose motivation and educational backgrounds demonstrate a strong potential for success in the academic program of their choice. Specific entrance requirements are detailed in the degree program sections of this catalog. The application process at The Citadel Graduate College (CGC) is a two-part process. The applicant must be accepted into the program to which they seek a degree and must be accepted into the Citadel by the Citadel Graduate College. The Application consists of the following: 1. Completion of the online graduate application along with the non-refundable application fee; 2. Official transcripts from the undergraduate institution conferring the applicant’s bachelor degree and transcripts from all postgraduate institutions attended. 3. Other supplemental items, which may include official test scores (GMAT, GRE or MAT- see program requirements for acceptable test and test scores), as required by the program. 4. An official TOEFL score if English is not the native language. The minimum acceptable score of 550 paper-based, 213 computer-based, or 79 internet-based; *Applicants may be exempted from the TOEFL requirement if the applicant has a minimum of 2 years of course study, with a 3.0 or higher GPA, from an institution accredited by a United States accreditation entity, or the international equivalent from a university of recognized standing in a country in which all instruction is provided in English. Therefore, applicants with completed coursework from the U.S., Australia, Canada (except Quebec), New Zealand, Singapore, and the United Kingdom may be eligible for an exemption. All exemption requests must be made in writing to The Citadel Graduate College and be accompanied by the domestic transcripts showing the minimum requirements for a waiver have been met. Other exceptions may be considered on a case by case basis with written justification and supporting documentation submitted to the Graduate College for review. 5. Additional documentation as required by individual programs. Our applicant are able to log into the Citadel’s application portal to view a list of required supplemental items at any time. The requirements for acceptance into specific programs and degrees are described in this catalog for each program. If accepted, official copies of all admissions documents must be sent directly to the Graduate College, and admission test scores (if required) must be submitted directly from the testing organization and current within five years of application. 8 CGC Academic Catalog �Full acceptance is not granted until both the program and Graduate College’s requirements are met. After acceptance by the Graduate College, any non- U.S. citizen must complete the application for an F1 Visa. Applicants must not have a record of conviction of a criminal offense showing poor moral character. Upon acceptance, a letter is sent to the student identifying their faculty advisor. Students are encouraged to schedule an appointment for advising upon admission. While each program has its own set of admissions requirements, ultimate authority to admit a student rests with the provost or her designee. Typically, departments and programs have the authority to determine admissions criteria and the provost intervenes only in unusual or extraordinary circumstances. However, the decision by the provost as the chief academic officer for the college is final. Legal Presence and Residency The State of South Carolina requires all state colleges and universities to verify each student’s legal presence in the United States. As part of the admissions process, each student is required to submit a photocopy of a valid Real ID South Carolina Driver’s License, birth certificate, or valid U.S. passport. Joint Degree Programs The Citadel participates in joint graduate degree and certificate programs with the College of Charleston in Computer Science, English, and History. Students routinely take courses at both institutions. Citadel students will register for all their Computer Science, English, and History at The Citadel, even when a particular course may be offered at the College of Charleston. Students who have declared a home institution must complete at least 33% of their coursework at that institution. Veteran’s Status as a Student on The Citadel Campus The Citadel welcomes active duty, veterans, and their families to become part of our educational community. The Veteran Student Success Center hosts dedicated resources to assist our veteran and active duty students as they pursue their graduate education. Admission and Student Categories Graduate students may be admitted to the Citadel in one of the below categories. Degree seeking - A graduate student is classified as degree seeking if they hold a bachelor’s degree or an advanced degree, all admission requirements are met and the student has been admitted to a degree program. Non-degree seeking - A graduate student is classified as nondegree seeking if they hold a bachelor’s degree or an advanced degree but who, at the time of the application, does not plan to pursue a degree. This category authorizes the student to take no more than 8 hours total. Enrolling in courses does not imply admission to a degree program. Persons admitted to the non-degree student status who later wish to become degree seeking must file an application for the desired program and comply with the admission requirements stated above. Senior Citizens - South Carolina Senior citizens, those who are age 60 and over and legal residents of the state, who wish to take courses at The Citadel are eligible to enroll as a degree-seeking or non-degree seeking student on a space available basis. If a student wishes to pursue a degree, they must submit an application for the program of study and follow the appropriate admissions protocol. Proof of age (SC Driver’s License) is required at the time of application. Registration for classes as a senior citizen is allowed on a space available basis—the timeline for registration is the Monday prior to the start of each semester. Additionally, permission from the instructor may be needed to take a course as a non-degree student. Students are encouraged to request this permission ahead of time and forward the approval in writing to the Registrar’s Office at registrar@citadel.edu. Students categorized under the senior citizen category must follow all academic regulations of the college, including GPA requirements. To remain enrolled in any term, senior citizen students must pay the required fees for the term by the end of the 2nd week of the beginning of the term or be disenrolled from their class. International Students - An international student who applies to a graduate program at The Citadel must complete the following requirements after admission and before enrolling in classes: 1. Provide a completed Immigration Request form. 2. If applying for a student visa or transferring a student visa from another institution, must provide evidence of ability to meet all financial obligations while in graduate study at The Citadel by completing the Certification of Finances form prior to enrolling in courses. 3. International students may not register before full acceptance into a degree program and clearance from the International Student Director. Provisional Status - Applicants who do not meet the minimum GPA and/or test score required by their program’s admission criteria may be allowed to pursue coursework as a provisionally admitted student. The purpose of the provisional status is to monitor and support the students’ academic success. Provisional status requires meeting specific academic standards in coursework. Refer to the degree program for provisional requirements. Undergraduate Students Taking Graduate Courses Academic seniors with a cumulative Grade Point Average of at least a 3.20 may take up to a maximum of twelve hours of graduate courses through The Citadel Graduate College once they have reached senior status. As part of the maximum 12 hours of graduate credit, no undergraduate student may take more than six credit hours of graduate credit in any one term (Fall, Spring, Summer). These courses may provide students a head start on earning a graduate certificate or a graduate degree, but graduate courses may not be used to meet undergraduate degree requirements unless the student is formally admitted to an accelerated program and will NEVER be used in the computation of the undergraduate GPA. Students CGC Academic Catalog 9 �Refer to specific accelerated program requirements for total hours permitted to share. student’s grade point average (GPA). Ceasing to attend a course does not constitute an official drop or withdrawal from the course. Any withdrawal request that occurs after the published withdrawal date must have a written justification for the late request to accompany the withdrawal form. Late withdrawal requests will be approved on a case-by-case basis by both the academic dean and the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management. Admission Test Advisement and the Planned Program For any graduate programs that require submission of an official admissions test score, the test must be current within five years of the application. See the appropriate program for the type of test(s) required. Upon acceptance into a degree program, a student is assigned an advisor. It is the student’s responsibility to confer with this advisor at an early date and at periodic intervals to assure appropriate course selection and awareness of degree requirements. Degree candidates in some programs must file an official program of study. This program of study will be developed in consultation with the student’s advisor and approved by the appropriate Dean or Department Head. This program of study is filed in the Registrar’s Office and will be used in the degree audit process. It is a joint responsibility of the advisor and student to maintain the program of study in a current state. Modifications in a program of study can be accomplished with the written approval of the appropriate Dean or Department Head. Students who wish to select a new degree program must file an application and fee, meet all admission requirements of the new degree program, and be accepted into the new degree program before registration in the new program should occur. Completion of coursework for a program in which a student has not been formally accepted does not imply admission into that program. A student should pursue no more than 8 credit hours of coursework for a program to which they have not been formally accepted. must have the permission of the Associate Provost. Undergraduate students accepted in an accelerated program at The Citadel may take and share up to twelve hours of structured graduate credit between the graduate and undergraduate majors. Applicants for some graduate programs in The Citadel who possess a master’s or doctorate degree from an accredited institution may be eligible to waive the requirement to supply an admissions test score. The applicant must send the written waiver request and transcript showing a conferred Master’s or higher degree, directly to the Graduate College. Registration Registration is conducted online through Lesesne Gateway. Students may not attend class until they are fully registered and listed on the class roster. Completed registrations will be honored on a first-come, first- served basis. Registration is not completed until all fees are paid. All fees are due by published calendar dates. Knowingly attending class without paying is an integrity violation and will result in dismissal from the college. Any changes in registration must be made prior to the end of the term’s Drop/Add period. Information concerning class times and important registration dates can be found for each academic term online at: http://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-courses. Completion of coursework for a program in which a student has not been formally accepted does not imply admission into that program. A student may not pursue more than 8 credit hours of coursework for a program to which they have not been formally accepted. Drop/Add and Withdrawals Formal notice of intent to drop or withdraw from any class is necessary in all cases. The dates for dropping and withdrawing are listed in the term calendar at: http://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-important-dates. To drop or add a course from the course schedule or to change sections within a course, a student must drop/add through Lesesne Gateway. Approval to drop a course and receive a refund after the published drop date is granted only under documentable extenuating circumstances (i.e. death in immediate family, serious medical issues, military deployment). After the drop period, students who choose to withdraw must complete a withdrawal form available in the Registrar’s Office or online. Course withdrawal means a student is withdrawing from a course after the drop/add date has passed. A grade of “W” will appear on the student transcript. The “W” does not affect the 10 Audit Policy A student may elect to audit a course for no credit. Permission to audit must be obtained from the school/department offering the course and a form must be submitted. Students must possess an undergraduate degree from an accredited college or university to audit a graduate level course. Students cannot switch from credit to audit status, or vice versa, after two class meetings. Auditors must apply and be accepted as a non-degree seeking student and are permitted to register for a class on a “space available” basis. The audit tuition is the same as the regular credit hour tuition. Course Load Graduate students are considered full-time if they carry six (6) credit hours accumulated over any combination of courses during a full semester. The maximum credit any graduate student may carry is 17 credits per full semester (Fall, Spring, or Summer). For students enrolled in one mini term per semester, 3 credit hours will be considered full-time for the mini term. The semester hour load for students wishing to be classified as part-time is 3 credit hours during a full semester. Students holding Citadel graduate assistantships will be considered as full time if they are taking at least six (6) semester hours. Students enrolled in any combination of summer sessions may not exceed a maximum of five courses (15 credit hours, but 17 credit hours including lab courses). In addition, the maximum load allowed in an individual summer term is 7 credit hours (Full Summer, Summer I, Summer II, Mini term A, Mini Term CGC Academic Catalog �B). work not equivalent to courses at The Citadel will enhance the program, up to six semester hours of such credit may be acceptable. These will be part of the maximum allowable transfer hours for that program. Summer School The Citadel’s Summer School is managed by the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management who has the responsibility for the coordination and administration of all aspects of The Citadel’s graduate and undergraduate summer school programs. All Summer School students are ultimately the academic and administrative responsibility of the Provost. Students residing in the barracks, regardless of academic status are the disciplinary responsibility of the commandant; all other students who are not members of the corps of cadets remain as stated above. Graduate students applying for transfer credit will use the “Transfer Credit for Graduate Programs” form located online at https://www.citadel.edu/root/images/registrar/graduate/transfer%20cr edit%20approval%20-%20graduate.pdfSubmit the form to the Registrar’s Office through the student’s advisor and department head with a copy of the course description from the catalog of the originating institution and the course syllabus. An official copy of the transcript for the institution where the credit was earned must be on file with the Graduate College. Course Substitution Course substitutions in degree programs can only be authorized by the approval of the Head of the Department and Dean of the School. Forms to initiate this procedure are available in the Registrar’s Office or online. English Fluency Policy In accordance with the laws of South Carolina, The Citadel ensures the English fluency of its teaching faculty. Should a student challenge the English fluency of a member of the faculty, standard procedures for student academic grievances will be followed. If a review committee is called for, the native language of one of the faculty members will not be English. Readmission Policy In exceptional and extraordinary circumstances, a graduate student can petition their academic school dean for reinstatement through a letter of appeal, but the granting of such appeals would be considered unusual and rare. Transfer Credit The Citadel Graduate College does permit up to 12 hours of transfer credit from other accredited higher education institutions and from military education and training recommended for credit by the American Council on Education. Exceptions may be granted by the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Only graduate credit hours in which grades of “B” or higher have been earned are transferable and applicable to degree requirements. Some programs allow fewer hours of transfer credit. Students should check the requirements for specific programs for the maximum number of credit hours that may be transferred into The Citadel. To be transferred, credit hours must have been earned within six years of the date of admission to The Citadel. Students who desire to take a course at another institution for transfer while enrolled in CGC must obtain prior approval from their department head. Acceptance of transfer credits within the foregoing rules is the prerogative of the academic department or school. Ordinarily, course work accepted for transfer must parallel course work available at The Citadel. However, where the head of the major department or Dean of the school feels that graduate course CGC Academic Catalog 11 �Expenses & Financial Aid Fee Payment The Citadel Treasurer’s Office is responsible for the collection of monies due to The Citadel. All fees are due and payable at the time of registration. If fees are not paid by the date on the term calendar, the student may be dropped from registered classes. Checks should be made payable to The Citadel and mailed to 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, SC 29409. Fees may also be paid online with Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express. Electronic check payments are available at no charge. Deferred payment plans may be arranged in advance of a semester through the Citadel Tuition Payment Plan. Forms are available on the Treasurer’s webpage at www.citadel.edu/treasurer. The Citadel reserves the right to adjust fees at any time to meet the current cost of operation. Fee schedules are published each semester on The Citadel’s web page. All correspondence concerning fees, payments, and status of accounts should be directed to the Treasurer’s office. Financial Aid and Scholarships The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships administers student loan applications, grants, scholarships, and work-study programs. The office is located in Bond Hall, Room 138, and staff can be reached at (843) 953-5187 or by email at financial_aid@citadel. edu. Forms and Deadlines To apply for financial aid at The Citadel, all students should file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at fafsa. ed.gov as soon as possible after October 1 each year. Additional information may be requested by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships. Students are responsible for checking their Lesesne Gateway accounts, completing all requested paperwork, and meeting financial aid requirements in a timely manner. Funds are limited, so late applications are considered for aid only if resources are still available. FAFSA Priority Deadline Dates Academic year (fall and spring) October 31 Fall only October 31 Spring only October 1 Summer April 1 Applicants who have not completed all financial aid paperwork by June 30 should not expect to receive notification of awards prior to the beginning of fall semester. These applicants should be prepared to pay for their tuition, fees, and other costs by established fee payment deadlines. Students are reimbursed if subsequently determined to be eligible for financial aid. 12 Determining Financial Need The amount of financial aid is based on the FAFSA form the applicant files after October 1 each year. This form solicits information about the family’s current financial situation and produces an “expected family contribution” (EFC). Adjusted gross income data from tax forms are used, along with current asset information to determine family resources. Allowances are made for federal and state taxes, social security, employment (when both parents work), unusual medical and dental expenses, and family size. Other factors considered include any unusual expenses and the number of family members in college. In its simplest definition, financial need is the difference between what a student will pay to attend college and the expected family contribution, as determined by the need analysis. If costs exceed the amount of family contribution, then the applicant has “demonstrated” financial need. Dependent or Independent Status Federal student aid programs are based on the premise that parents have the primary responsibility of financing their children’s education. However, independent students are not required to submit parental data. Students who fall into at least one of the following categories are considered independent: • He/she is at least 24 years old by Dec 31 of the academic year. • He/she is a graduate student. • He/she is married. • He/she is currently serving on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces for purposes other than training. • He/she is a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces. • He/she has children (or other dependents) and will provide more than half of their support. • He/she was in foster care or deemed a dependent or ward of the court. • He/she was an emancipated minor or in legal guardianship as determined by a court. • He/she is determined to be an unaccompanied youth who is homeless or self-supporting and at risk of being homeless. Federal Eligibility Requirements Any student who is accepted for admission is eligible to request financial assistance. However, there are several general eligibility requirements a student must meet to receive federal financial aid: 1. A student must be admitted to The Citadel as a regular or provisional student. 2. A student must be a U.S. citizen, or a national or permanent resident. 3. A student may not receive aid if he or she is in default at any institution on any Federal Student Loan Program. 4. Students must be enrolled at least half-time. This is defined as 4.5 hours/semester for graduate students and six (6) hours/semester for undergraduate students. The only exception to this rule will be internships and practicums, which, given their somewhat unique composition and requirements, qualify a student for half-time status. This definition of half-time status is important to be eligible for financial aid and to qualify for in-school deferment on prior federal student loans. 5. A student may not receive aid if he or she owes a repayment at any institution on a Pell Grant, Supplemental Grant, or State Student Incentive Grant. CGC Academic Catalog �6. 7. A student must have the minimum grade point average and must make satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward a degree to continue to receive federal financial aid. A graduate certificate student is not eligible for federal financial aid. 2. Plan approved by Academic Affairs and signed by both the advisor and the student, and A letter written by the student that defines why the student failed to make SAP and what has changed that enables the student to meet SAP at the next evaluation. Please visit http://www.citadel.edu/finaid for detailed information about the various financial aid programs offered. If a student fails to either regain regular SAP eligibility after one semester or meet the conditions of the Academic Improvement Plan, the student is ineligible to receive federal financial aid (Title IV aid). Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) for Financial Aid Recipients Appeal Deadlines Completed appeal forms must be turned in two weeks before the end of the term for which the appeal is filed. Types of Financial Aid In compliance with regulations governing federal and/or state financial aid programs, The Citadel is required to monitor each student to be certain that he or she is maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in his or her course of study. SAP standards are separate from The Citadel’s academic policies and are reviewed annually at the end of each spring semester. How the Policy Works Students who fail to meet published SAP standards will be ineligible to receive federal or state financial aid funds. However, those students failing to meet the minimum standards, as prescribed in this policy, may appeal their status by following outlined conditions. Academic Year The academic year for SAP determination is comprised of the fall, spring, and summer terms. Minimum Standards Unsatisfactory academic progress is defined as a failure to meet at least one of the following standards: Graduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 9 hours/semester) must earn 18 credit hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 9 hours. b. Part-time students (enrolled in 4.5 hours/semester) must earn at least 66% of credit hours attempted in an academic year. 2. GPA – A student must earn at least a 3.0 grade point average. 3. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 150% of the student’s program length. SAP Appeal Students who have not met SAP have the opportunity to complete an appeal to regain eligibility for federal aid. Completion of this process does not guarantee reinstatement of federal financial aid. Students are responsible for full payment of tuition/fees regardless of financial aid status. It is also the student’s responsibility to be aware of and to meet all fee payment and financial aid deadlines. The SAP Appeal form is available on the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarship’s webpage on The Citadel website at citadel.edu. The SAP Appeal must include: 1. A completed SAP Appeal Form and Academic Improvement Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: “A” Superior “B” Very Good “C” Satisfactory; Acceptable “D” Marginal; Passing “F” Unsatisfactory “P” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that do not carry credit hours to designate passing performance “S” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that carry credit hours to designate that a grade of “A”, “B” or “C” has been earned and credit has been awarded “U” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses and in ENGL 101 to designate that a grade of “D” or “F” has been earned and no credit has been awarded “W” Withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline “I” An Incomplete is awarded when course requirements have been very nearly met but for authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. “IP” Grade assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed after two full semesters, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Students who are enrolled in audit courses will not receive financial aid for these courses. Students can access midterm progress and semester grade reports online by using BANNER Self-Service through the Lesesne Gateway portal. Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA/Grade Replacement The regulatory definition for full-time enrollment status (for undergraduates) has been revised to allow a student to retake (one time only per previously passed course) any previously passed course. For this purpose, passed means any grade higher than an “F,” regardless of any school or program policy requiring a higher qualitative grade or measure to have been considered to have passed the course. This retaken class may be counted towards a student’s enrollment status, and the student may be awarded Title IV aid for the enrollment status based on inclusion of the class. A CGC Academic Catalog 13 �student may be repeatedly paid for repeatedly failing the same course (normal SAP policy still applies to such cases), and if a student withdraws before completing the course that he or she is being paid Title IV funds for retaking, then that is not counted as his or her one allowed retake for that course. However, if a student passed a class once, then is repaid for retaking it, and fails the second time, that failure counts as their paid retake, and the student may not be paid for retaking the class a third time. The percentage earned will be calculated based on the following schedule: Week 1 6 percent Week 2 12 percent Week 3 18 percent Week 4 25 percent Transfer Credits When evaluating SAP, a student’s transfer credits, accepted by The Citadel toward completion of the student’s degree program, will count as both credit hours attempted and hours earned. Week 5 31 percent Week 6 37 percent Week 7 43 percent Week 8 50 percent Change of Major Students that have changed majors and earn more than the maximum allowable number of credit hours toward graduation will be required to submit an SAP Appeal. Week 9 56 percent Week 10 60 percent Week 11-16 100 percent Second Degrees Students that are completing a second degree will be required to submit an SAP Appeal to explain the reason behind earning more than 150% of allowable credit hours. Financial Aid Funds Covered By SAP Standards • Federal Pell Grant • Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) • Federal Work Study • Federal Direct Loan, subsidized and unsubsidized • Federal Direct PLUS Loan • Federal Direct Graduate PLUS Loan • South Carolina Teachers Loan • South Carolina Career Changers Loan • South Carolina Palmetto Fellows Scholarship • South Carolina LIFE Scholarship • South Carolina Need-Based Grant • Other federal/state programs as required • Some Private Educational Loans (as required by the lender) Financial Aid Refund and Repayment Policy Refunds Refunds will be returned to the programs from which the student received aid. The Higher Education Act of 1998, Public Law 105244, substantially changed the way funds paid toward a student’s education are managed should the student, as a recipient of federal financial aid, withdraw from school. If a student who was awarded financial aid withdraws from school, he/she is eligible for the “institutionally-determined refund” that remains after the immediate repayments of the financial aid award to the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships. This policy also applies to students on whose behalf a parent has borrowed a Title IV loan. Refunds are returned to the programs that awarded the student aid. In the case of federal financial aid, a statutory schedule is used to determine the amount of federal financial aid that has been earned based on the period the student was in attendance. Up through the 60% point, in each payment period of enrollment, a pro rata schedule is used to determine how much federal financial aid the student will receive. After the 60% point, in the payment period of enrollment, a student has earned 100% of the federal funds awarded for the period. 14 For example, if a student has received $1,000 in Federal Financial Aid and withdraws within the first week of classes, that student will receive 6 percent ($60) of the aid award applied to total charges. The remaining $940 will be returned to the Federal Financial Aid programs in the following order: 1. Unsubsidized Student Loans 2. Subsidized Student Loans 3. Perkins Loans 4. PLUS Loans/Graduate PLUS Loans 5. Federal Grants 6. Other Assistance under Title IV The refund and repayment provisions mandated by the federal government for federal aid recipients apply when a student receives financial aid funds and withdraws, drops out, takes an unapproved leave of absence, fails to return from an approved leave of absence, is expelled, or otherwise fails to complete the period of enrollment for which he or she was charged. The refund and repayment requirements DO NOT APPLY to a student who: • Withdraws, drops out, or is expelled before his or her first day of class, or • Withdraws from some classes, but continues to be enrolled in other classes, or • Does not receive funds for the period in question. (Students whose parents received a PLUS Loan are considered to have received funds and so are covered for the refund and repayment requirements.) Repayments If a student’s non-instructional educational expenses (allowances as prescribed below) incurred up to the time of withdrawal exceed the amount of cash disbursement, the student does not owe a repayment. If cash disbursed exceeds the non-instructional costs of education incurred up to the time of withdrawal, the student does owe a repayment. This repayment is the difference between costs incurred and the actual cash refund received. Non-instructional expenses are determined by calculating the percentage of room, board, books, supplies, travel, and personal expenses incurred during the portion of the term a student is enrolled. Off-campus board and personal expenses are prorated on a weekly basis. There is no proration of on-campus room charges. A percentage of books, supplies, and travel costs is allowed based on length of enrollment. CGC Academic Catalog �Student Aid Accounts to be Refunded and Repaid Once the amounts to be refunded and/or repaid are determined, the aid programs from which the student received funds will be reimbursed in the following order: 1. Federal Direct/Stafford loans 2. Federal Perkins loans 3. Federal PLUS loans received on behalf of the student 4. Federal Pell Grants 5. Federal SEOG Grants 6. Other Title IV programs 7. Other federal, state, private, or institutional student financial assistance received by the student for which refunds are required 8. The student Refunds No fees are refunded after the published drop deadline. This date is usually following two class meetings and is published in the term calendar ahttp://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-importantdates. To obtain the appropriate refund, a student must drop the course via Lesesne Gateway. The Citadel Graduate College may authorize a refund for extenuating circumstances after the scheduled refund date if a formal appeal is made in writing to the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management. Extenuating circumstances are defined as a death in immediate family, serious medical issues, or military deployment. Registration, technology, infrastructure, and application fees are not refundable. Other Assistance Vocational Rehabilitation Scholarships: This program provides for education and training if the student has a physical or mental disability that is a substantial handicap to employment and if there exists reasonable expectation that vocational rehabilitation services may lead to gainful employment. Additional information is available through the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation in the student’s home state. College Budget Plans: The Citadel Tuition Payment Plan (CTPP) allows all students and families to finance the cost of Tuition, Auxiliary Fees (Housing/Room/Board) and OneCard. The plan is offered as a service to the student, allowing the student to finance education and related costs over the period of a semester. To calculate the amount to include in the plan, students should subtract financial aid and any scholarships from their balance- and only place their uncovered expenses in the payment pan. There is a $50 enrollment fee per term. The plan is for 4 equal payments. Enrollment deadlines can be found on the Treasurer’s web page at www.citadel.edu\treasurer. Failure to pay any outstanding balance by the end of the semester will result in a registration hold being placed on their account until the balance is paid off. Veterans Services: Services are administered under the umbrella of student financial aid at The Citadel. Veteran services are intended to meet the needs of students receiving benefits under the following programs: • Ch. 30—Montgomery GI Bill ®—Active Duty, Veterans • Ch. 31—Vocational Rehabilitation • Ch. 33—Post 9-11 GI Bill® • Ch. 35—Dependents’ Educational Assistance Program • Ch. 1606—Montgomery GI Bill®—Selected Reserve Due to the complexity of VA educational benefits, students are encouraged to contact The Citadel’s Veterans Student Success Office well in advance of the beginning of the semester. Students who have already applied for benefits should submit a copy of their Department of Veterans Affairs Certificate Eligibility. In compliance with federal regulations, students are required to follow guidelines set by the Department of Veterans Affairs. VA Certification Policies and Procedures can be found on The Citadel’s website under Veterans Services. Staff can be reached at 843-9539824 or email at va_benefits@citadel.edu. CGC Academic Catalog 15 �Academic Regulations and Procedures Application for Resident Status for Tuition and Fee Purposes Any student or prospective student who is uncertain about payment of in-state tuition and fees has the responsibility of securing a ruling from The Citadel by providing all relevant information on special application forms. These forms can be obtained from the Office of the Registrar, Bond Hall, Room 173, or online at http://www.citadel.edu/registrar/forms/. Completed forms must be returned to that office at least four to six weeks prior to registration for any semester or summer term for which the student is attempting to qualify for in-state tuition and fee rate. Requirements for Graduation In addition to the program requirements, the following requirements must be met for graduation. The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar (LDRS 500) is an online seminar in which graduate students at The Citadel learn about principled leadership and the institution’s core values – honor, duty, and respect. Participants focus on what it means to be a member of The Citadel community, and the application of core values as a guiding feature of one’s place in life and in leadership within an organization. Students must complete LDRS 500 and the protection of minors module in their first two semesters of study at The Citadel. Students who fail to successfully complete LDRS 500 after two semesters will be placed on academic hold and will not be allowed to continue in their coursework until LDRS 500 is successfully completed. Protection of Minors The Citadel is committed to the safety of all individuals in its community. The College has particular concern for those who are potentially vulnerable, including minor children, who require special attention and protection. Our online training requirement establishes guidelines for those in the college community who may work or interact with individuals under 18 years of age, with the goal of promoting the safety and wellbeing of minors. All degree-seeking graduate students (including those enrolled in graduate certificates) who enroll in Citadel course(s) are required to successfully complete our designated protection of minors training module at the beginning of their graduate program. Graduate students complete the training through their participation in LDRS 500. Students who have completed equivalent training in the last five years may provide a copy of their certificate of completion by uploading it through their Principled Leadership Seminar course – LDRS 500. The Citadel Student Honor Code Honor Code Statement: It is the responsibility of all community members to promote, abide by, and enforce the following honor code: “A Citadel student (e.g. graduate, undergraduate, or veteran) does not lie, cheat, steal, nor tolerate those who do.” It is the responsibility of all Citadel community members to promote, abide by, and enforce the following honor code.

After the portion of the hearing concludes in which all pertinent information has been received, the Honor Council shall determine whether the accused student is in violation of the Non-Cadet Honor Code. 9. The determination shall be made on the basis of a preponderance of the evidence--whether it is more likely than not that the accused student violated the Honor Code. Formal rules or process, procedure, and/or technical rules of evidence, such as those applied in criminal or civil court, are not used in these proceedings. 10. There shall be a single audio recording of all student conduct hearings (not including deliberations). Deliberations should not be recorded. The record shall be the property of The Citadel. If an accused student, with notice, does not appear for a hearing, the information in support of the charges shall be presented and considered even if the accused student is not present.

Final appeals of Honor Council rulings are made to the President. The procedure for appeals is found in the campus policies and procedures manual. CGC Academic Catalog 17 �1. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Expulsion—Permanent forced withdrawal from The Citadel. Although this may be imposed as a first offense for serious cases, it is usually imposed after other disciplinary methods have not achieved desired results. In all cases in which expulsion is appropriate, the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management will submit documentation and findings to the President of the college for final disposition. The President may elect, at his discretion, to impose another penalty. The student will be notified of the President’s decision, and that decision is final. A student’s suspension or expulsion will be noted on his or her transcripts. Dismissal—Forced withdrawal from The Citadel for two semesters. Suspension—Forced withdrawal from The Citadel for one semester. In instances of both dismissal and suspension, students may not visit campus or participate in any campusrelated activities. An exception to this rule is if the student is seeking clarification of his or her academic record and a physical visit to campus is required. Reprimand—Written notice to student that behavior was unacceptable and that further issues could result in suspension or expulsion. Restriction—Loss of privileges including but not limited to parking on campus, access to university facilities, etc. Course Withdrawal—From the course in which the offense occurred. Grade Change—Only for cases involving academic integrity. Such a sanction must be approved by the Provost or the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Restitution—Reimbursement for physical damages or loss of property. Appeals: Grounds. An appeal does not provide a second forum in which to present the case. Appeals deal only with how a decision has been reached and not with the decision itself. The following are the exclusive grounds for all disciplinary and academic appeals: 1. 2. That the hearing officer or board failed to provide due process; That significant information has been discovered since the board or hearing, which would probably change the result, but which could not, in the exercise of due diligence, have been presented to the board or hearing. A review by the President is not considered an entitlement but is within the scope of authority of the President. This is the final appeal at the institution and if applicable, all imposed sanctions are implemented after the President issues his decision. Title IX at The Citadel Title IX of the U.S. Education Amendments of 1972 (“Title IX”) is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs and activities. The Citadel does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the education programs or activities that it operates including admissions and employment. Under Title IX, discrimination on the basis of sex can also include sexual harassment which is defined as conduct on the basis of sex that satisfies one or more of the following : 18 2. 3. An employee of the College conditioning the provision of education benefits on participation in unwelcome sexual conduct (i.e., quid pro quo); or Unwelcome conduct that a reasonable person would determine is so severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive that it effectively denies a person equal access to the institution’s education program or activity; or Sexual assault (as defined in the Clery Act), dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking as defined in the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Any person may report sex discrimination, including sexual harassment (whether or not the person reporting is the person alleged to be the victim of conduct that could constitute sex discrimination or sexual harassment), in person, by mail, by telephone, or by electronic mail, using the contact information listed for the Title IX Coordinator, or by any other means that results in the Title IX Coordinator receiving the person’s verbal or written report. Such a report may be made at any time (including during non-business hours) by using the telephone number, electronic mail address, or by mail to the office address listed for the Title IX Coordinator. The following person has been designated to handle inquiries related to Title IX: Valerie Mercado, Title IX Coordinator; 171 Moultrie St, Bond Hall 192, Charleston, SC, 29409; 843-953-6881; vmercado@citadel.edu. The Citadel Policy https://www.citadel.edu/root/title-ix provides information on The Citadel’s grievance procedures, including how to report or file a complaint and how The Citadel will respond. Inquiries can also be made to the Assistant Secretary. The Assistant Secretary contact information is U.S. Department of Education, Office of Postsecondary Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, S.W., Washington, DC 20202, Main Telephone: 202453-6914. NCAA Regulation Related to Campus Sexual Violence In compliance with the NCAA regulations related to campus sexual violence response, The Citadel has adopted Memorandum 2-029: Annual Disclosure Requirements For Compliance With The NCAA Board of Governors Policy on Campus Sexual Violence. This policy outlines the disclosures required of all incoming, continuing and transfer student athletes. The policy can be viewed at: https://www.citadel.edu/root/images/policies/disclosurerequirements-for-compliance-with-ncaa-board-of-governors.pdf Academic Standards All students are expected to maintain high academic standards. In addition to the grade point average requirements for satisfying degree standards, the following policies set minimum guidelines for all graduate programs. Specific programs may establish more rigorous criteria for satisfactory progress. Students should CGC Academic Catalog �carefully study the sections of this catalog pertinent to their degree program for statements about expectations, which may exceed these minimal criteria. Any grade of “C” (ie. “C”, “C+”) is a warning that the individual is not performing at the level expected of graduate students; a grade of “F” is a clear statement of inadequate performance. Either a “C” or “F” grade calls into question the expectation of reasonable progress toward the degree. In order to maintain appropriate academic quality, the following policy applies to students enrolled at The Citadel: 1. 2. 3. If a student receives a grade of “F” in a graduate course, regardless of his or her status, the student will be terminated from the Citadel Graduate College. The student may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement. If the student is granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for the next term. If a student receives seven (7) or more credit hours of graduate course work with a grade of “C”or “C+” regardless of his or her status, the student will be terminated from the Citadel Graduate College. The student may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement in the program. If a student is granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for that term. Any student admitted to a graduate program who has earned or attempted twelve (12) hours of graduate credit must have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher to continue in the program. If a student’s GPA falls below a 3.0 any time after the completion of twelve (12) hours of graduate credit, the student must improve his/her GPA to a minimum 3.0 by the time he/she has completed nine (9) additional graduate credit hours. If the student achieves a minimum 3.0 while completing these nine (9) additional graduate credit hours, the standard of maintaining a 3.0 GPA begins again. Some programs have stricter program requirements. Check with your program advisor for the standards for your program. Generally, a student can expect to receive a decision on an appeal within 10 working days. Students are encouraged to provide a courtesy copy of grievances and appeals to the CGC for record. Catalog of Record The catalog bearing the academic year in which the student enters The Citadel will be his or her catalog of record for academic program requirements. Class Attendance Regular attendance is required of all Citadel students, and the attendance record maintained by the instructor is official. In case of absences due to illness or other circumstances beyond their control, students should notify the instructor as soon as possible. Online Course Attendance Policy Distance education (online) students are subject to The Citadel’s attendance policy. Attendance in a distance education (online) course is defined by active participation. Logging into Canvas does not qualify as sufficient evidence of attending as per federal financial aid guidelines, and nonattendance may affect financial aid and/or veterans’ benefits. Completion of tests, submission/completion of assignments, and participation in discussion forums are activities used to document enrollment. (Note: logging into the course does not qualify as participation and will not be counted as meeting the attendance requirement). Students who have not documented enrollment and participation by the end of the official drop/add period will be administratively dropped from the roll as “never attended.” Students who fail to maintain active participation throughout a distance education (online) course also may be administratively dropped after the official add-drop date without the possibility of reimbursement. For this purpose, an unexplained absence from the course for more than two weeks is considered “non-participation.” Comprehensive Examinations The Citadel graduate programs vary in their exit requirements. While all degree programs require at least a 3.0 cumulative GPA (3.25 for Ed.S.) for graduation, some have an exit examination or exit project requirement. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of these standards. Confidentiality of Student Records The Citadel maintains and discloses information from student records in accordance with the provisions of the “Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974” (FERPA), as amended. This law requires that educational institutions maintain the confidentiality of student educational records. The Citadel accords its students all rights under the law. FERPA coverage applies to all educational records that contain a student’s name, social security number, or other personally identifiable information, in whatever medium, to include electronic form. No one outside of The Citadel shall have access to nor will the institution disclose any information from a student’s educational records without the written consent of the student except in compliance with the provisions of Federal and State law. Educational records may be disclosed to personnel within the institution who have a legitimate educational interest, to parents of students who are dependents as defined by IRS standards, to persons or organizations providing students financial aid, to accrediting agencies carrying out their accreditation function, to persons in compliance with a judicial order, or in an emergency, to persons in order to protect the health or safety of the student or others. Within The Citadel community, only those members, individually or collectively, acting in the student’s educational interests are allowed access to student educational records. These members include the Board of Visitors, Faculty, and personnel in the Offices of the President, Provost and Dean of the College, Associate Provost of Academic Affairs, Associate Provost of Enrollment Management, Registrar, and Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs. Directory information about a student may be disclosed at the discretion of The Citadel without the consent of the student unless the student has notified the Registrar within two weeks of the beginning of the academic year (fall semester) that the student refuses to allow the disclosure of such information. Any student desiring to keep directory information confidential must give notice at the beginning of each academic year and the notice is valid only for that year. CGC Academic Catalog 19 �the commandant is responsible for discipline. Course Cancellation Grades It occasionally becomes necessary to cancel a course. The Citadel reserves the right to cancel any course for which there is insufficient enrollment. This cancellation may be done without notice. Students affected by a course cancellation will receive due consideration and notification by the department offering the course. If no other satisfactory arrangements can be made, the student will receive a complete refund of all tuition and fees paid. Degree and Certification Requirements Specific requirements are detailed in the appropriate sections of the catalog. The general requirements include completing all specific program requirements and coursework while maintaining at least a “B” (3.0) GPA. Students should check the specific requirements of the program in which they are enrolled. State certification requirements are determined by external agencies over which The Citadel has no control. It is the student’s responsibility to meet these requirements, which are subject to legislative change. Advisors will assist students in staying current with these requirements and adjusting programs of study to reflect any change. Earning a Second Master’s Degree The College permits a student to earn a second Citadel master’s degree in a different program as long as no more than twelve credit hours in common course requirements are applied to the second master’s degree. The Second Master’s Degree must be significantly different in subject matter. Professional Conduct Responsibility for professional conduct rests with students as adult individuals and as members of The Citadel community. CGC students are expected to conduct themselves as the responsible adults they are. All members of the campus community are expected to use reasonable judgement in all aspects of campus life and activity and to show due concern for the welfare and rights of others. Students are expected to adhere to all federal, state, and local laws. The Citadel protects freedom of action and speech, so long as the exercise of this freedom is not of an inflammatory or demeaning nature and does not interfere with the operation of the College. The Citadel’s Conduct Policy prohibits the possession of drugs, destruction of property, making false statements of emergency situations, physical or verbal abuse, or harassment of any sort. Students who violate the rules and regulations of The Citadel are subject to expulsion or lesser sanctions. These rules and regulations are published in “Regulations for Non-Cadet Students for Fall and Spring Semester And All Students, Including Cadets, for Maymester or Summer School,” which can be found online at: http://www.citadel.edu/root/images/BOV/Policies/03-provost/3107-regulations-for-non-cadets.pdf. The Provost or her designee is responsible for administering the disciplinary conduct code for CGC students unless they reside in the barracks during Maymester and Summer School, in which case 20 Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. No numerical symbol or percentage is fixed or assigned to the equivalent of any grade. A: A grade of “A” represents work of a high quality. Four quality points are awarded for each credit hour. B+: A grade of “B+” represents above average quality work. Three and one-half quality points are awarded for each credit hour. B: A grade of “B” indicates average graduate work. Three quality points are awarded for each credit hour. C+: A grade of “C+” indicates below average graduate work and is an unsatisfactory grade. Two and one-half quality points are awarded for each credit hour. C: A grade of “C” is unsatisfactory. Two quality points are awarded for each credit hour. P: A grade of “P” indicates work of acceptable, graduate- level quality. While it signifies work of “A” or “B” level, it carries no quality points and is awarded only for designated courses such as workshops, internships, etc. F: A grade of “F” indicates that the minimum requirements have not been met. No quality points are awarded. I: A grade of “I” represents work of satisfactory quality incomplete for authorized reasons. (See section below.) W: A grade of “W” represents withdrawal from a course prior to the scheduled withdrawal deadline. No quality points are associated with the “W”, and there is no academic penalty for the student. IP: A grade of “IP” assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed after two full semesters, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Grade of “I” Incomplete “I” grades must be made up during the term following the recording of the grade. A grade of “I” received in the fall term must be made up by the end of the following spring term. A grade of “I” received in either the spring or summer term must be made up by the end of the following fall term. An extension of time not to exceed one additional term may be authorized for extenuating circumstances by the appropriate dean. Grades not made up within the authorized time limit will convert to a grade of “F,” and such courses will be included in calculating the GPA. Pass-Fail Courses For certain courses, such as internships, practica, workshops, professional development courses, etc., a grade of pass or fail may be appropriate. Students taking courses of this nature need to discuss such arrangements with their advisor. Quality points will not be awarded for pass or fail work, and performance that is barely CGC Academic Catalog �adequate (C+ or below) will not receive credit. 4. Cumulative Grade-Point Average In addition to completing all specific program requirements, in order to remain in good academic standing, The Citadel Graduate College requires students to maintain a 3.0 GPA. Failure to maintain this GPA results in dismissal from that program. Should a student be enrolled in multiple programs or certificates, a cumulative GPA is not sufficiently accurate in determining a student’s academic standing. In such cases, the standard used to determine their eligibility is the student’s GPA in that particular program, not their cumulative GPA. 5. 6. Graduation 7. The Citadel Graduate College is committed to making the graduation and commencement experience a special one for its students. The following policy outlines the procedures for applying to graduate and participation in the annual CGC commencement ceremony. It is each student’s responsibility to apply to graduate. There are three graduation dates each calendar year. There is a May graduation date at the end of the Spring period of instruction, an August graduation date at the end of the Summer period of instruction, and a December graduation date at the end of the Fall semester period of instruction. There is one commencement ceremony each calendar year, in May, following the Spring semester. Graduation 1. Applications for graduation are available on Lesesne Gateway, via the Student Tab. Failure to apply by the deadline incurs a late fee, may delay receipt of the diploma, and may prevent the student from participating in the commencement ceremony. 2. The graduation date is the term in which the student completes all requirements. An incomplete grade is a delay in the completion of a requirement, and the posting of the final grade determines the completion of that requirement. 3. Do not select a graduation date until you plan to meet all requirements by that date as applications are processed and diplomas are ordered based on your graduation application. If the graduation date submitted is not met, a new application will be required along with applicable fee, and the diploma will need to be reordered. 4. To be recommended for a degree, students must satisfactorily complete the program requirements and non-program requirements for the degree. Students must be free from all financial indebtedness to The Citadel. 5. Students may apply for graduation and participate in commencement during the academic year in which they are completing their degree requirements. Participation in the CGC Commencement Ceremony 1. Students must indicate on their application for graduation they intend to participate in commencement ceremonies. If a student does not confirm intent, they will not be permitted to participate in the ceremony. 2. All grade-point average (GPA) requirements have been met. The cumulative grade-point averages for graduate students must be at least 3.000. 3. Graduate students must be no more than 9 credit hours short 8. of meeting degree requirements. Students must properly wear official regalia for the commencement ceremony. Students who complete all coursework and degree requirements during the summer session following that year’s commencement exercises may participate in that ceremony or can decide to participate in the commencement ceremony the following year. In some cases, students have completed their program requirements but are unable to participate in the commencement ceremony during the year they intended to graduate (e.g. military deployment, career relocation, or illness). In such cases, students may apply to graduate and participate in the next year’s commencement ceremony. Students exceeding this one year of eligibility will not be allowed to participate in the CGC commencement ceremony. Students who have earned a second master’s degree within the same academic year will be recognized for both programs of study. Children, parents, step-parents, or grandparents who are either graduates of the Corps of Cadets, the Veterans Program, or The Citadel Graduate College may present diplomas to their children, parents, step-parents, grandchildren or grandparents at the CGC commencement ceremony. The graduate must provide the CGC with their full name, relationship, and graduation year before the stated deadline and for approval. Intellectual Property Policy Preamble The Citadel has among its primary purposes teaching, research, and the expansion and dissemination of knowledge. Products of these endeavors include the development and use of intellectual property. It is the policy of the College that its faculty, staff, and students carry out their scholarly work in an open and free atmosphere that encourages publication and creation of such works without constraint but consistent with applicable laws and College policy. This policy will be in accord with the guidelines and criteria published in The American Association of University Professors’ “Statement of Copyright” (Policy Documents and Reports. Ninth Edition, 2001, or subsequent editions). Intellectual Property Ownership of intellectual property will reside with the originator, whether a member of the faculty, staff, or a student, unless: (a) the property is created at the specific direction of the College; or (b) the originator has made exceptional use of College resources in creating it. At the time when the work is directed by the College or at the time when the College makes exceptional resources available to the originator of intellectual property, the Provost and the originator will together determine ownership and will negotiate a written agreement concerning that property. These determinations will be made on a case-by-case basis. Nondiscrimination Policy The Citadel is committed to providing equal opportunities to men and women students in all campus programs, including CGC Academic Catalog 21 �intercollegiate athletics, in order to make The Citadel the best coeducational college in America. This commitment requires that no discrimination shall occur in our admissions policies, academic programs or services, as well as employment practices on the basis of sex, race, color, religion or national origin. This policy is in accordance with Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 as amended. Inquiries concerning the application of Title IX and other nondiscrimination laws may be referred to The Citadel’s Affirmative Action Officer and Title IX Coordinator, Bond Hall, Room 369, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, South Carolina, 29409, 843-953-6989, or the Assistant Secretary of Education, Civil Rights Division, US Department of Education, Washington, DC 20201-2516. Repeating a Course Courses may be repeated only under the following circumstances: • No courses may be repeated once a grade of “B” or higher has been earned. • If a class in which a “C+” or “C” was earned is repeated, it may be repeated only one time. • If a course is repeated, the last grade of record is used to determine whether course requirements for graduation have been met. • The hours may be used only once toward graduation. • All courses, previously passed or repeated, will be figured in the student’s GPA. No grade previously recorded is removed from the transcript. Satisfactory Progress and Length of Academic Program The academic grievance process of the college is reserved for the most serious alleged offenses. These matters deal not with differences of opinion, but with violations of due process; denial of individual rights; or unequal treatment/ discrimination based on sex, race, color, or national origin. Students who feel that they have an academic grievance are directed first to confer with the instructor or other individual(s) involved. Where this does not result in satisfaction or if this step is not feasible, the student should present the grievance in writing to the lowest appropriate level not involved in the grievance, department head or Dean. If the student does not receive a response within a reasonable period of time, normally considered two weeks, a copy of the written grievance may be provided to the next higher academic level not previously involved in the grievance, i.e. the department head or the school Dean, with a request for assistance in resolving the grievance. A final appeal for satisfaction may be made to the Provost. The purpose of this process is to permit each level of the academic level of authority to have the opportunity to resolve the grievance satisfactorily. The Graduate College does not process academic matters. However, students are encouraged to provide a courtesy copy of grievances and appeals to the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management for record. The Associate Provost or her designee will monitor time lines and processes for compliance with procedure and will inform the appropriate level of the academic authority if procedure is not followed. Student Appeal of Final Grade A student will have three weeks from when final grades are released to begin this process. Unless otherwise stated, students are expected to complete all degree requirements within a six (6) year period from the time of registration for the first graduate course in that program. Students enrolled in the Ed.S. in School Psychology program have seven (7) years to complete the degree. Students enrolled in the MA in Psychology: Clinical Counseling degree program have a five (5) year limit. Requests for an extension must be initiated by the student to the appropriate Department Head, who is responsible for notifying the student of the decision. Department Heads will forward recommendations through the program extension form, provided by the Office of the Registrar, to their appropriate academic dean. Extension approvals must be on file in the Registrar’s Office prior to application for graduation. If an extension is granted, a probationary extension for one year is authorized. At the completion of that year, an additional extension may be authorized (if necessary) contingent upon the student having made adequate progress. “Adequate Progress” is defined as completing graduate work in two of the three semesters (summer session counting as a semester) of the year of probation. An average grade of “B” (3.0) for that year is also required. At all levels, the department or school will be responsible for oversight of student progress and initiation of action related to unsatisfactory progress. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of courses that will not meet graduation time lines for satisfactory progress. Advisors should assist students with this calculation. 22 Student Academic Grievances 1. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the instructor and then discusses these concerns. The instructor will respond to the student within 3 business days. If the student’s concerns are not resolved or if the instructor fails to respond within the allotted time, the student can proceed to the next step. 2. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the department head. (In the event the instructor is the department head, then the dean will play this role, and if the instructor is a dean, then the Associate Provost of Operations will play this role.) The student then meets with the department head to discuss these concerns. The department head will respond to the student within 3 business days. If the student’s concerns are not resolved or if the department head fails to respond within the allotted time, the student can proceed to the next step. 3. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the dean. (If the student is uncertain of who the dean is, he/she should contact the Associate Provost who will direct the student appropriately.) The student then meets with the dean to discuss these concerns. If the student is not satisfied with the outcome of the discussion, the student will submit a grade appeal form and provide required material to the dean of the school within four weeks from when grades were released. Examples that can lead to a grade appeal include: a. The instructor has miscalculated a final grade. b. The instructor has violated the grading policies outlined in the syllabus. CGC Academic Catalog �c. The instructor has violated a college or departmental policy or procedure. 4. The dean will form a grade appeal committee consisting of at least three (3) tenured or tenure-track faculty (two from the relevant academic department and one from outside the department). The dean will provide direction to the committee, including emphasizing the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of the process. 5. The dean may request materials as needed from the instructor regarding the grade appeal, including but not limited to grades, syllabus, and assignments, for the grade appeal committee. 6. The dean may request additional information from the student as needed for the grade appeal committee, as well as ask the student to craft a detailed letter about why he/she is appealing the grade. Note: The grade appeal committee does not interact with the student or instructor. Any needed materials are to be gathered and disseminated by the dean. 7. The grade appeal committee submits its recommendation to the Associate Provost. Potential recommendations that may be forwarded include, but are not limited to: a. Change of grade b. Late Withdrawal c. Change of grade to Pass/Fail option d. Opportunity to repeat class at no cost e. Appeal is denied 8. The Associate Provost will notify the student and instructor of the appeal decision within 15 business days of receipt of the grade appeals form. The names of the members of the grade appeal committee are not shared in the decision letter nor are they shared with the course instructor or the student. Student Responsibility The College and departments establish certain academic requirements that must be met before a degree is granted. Advisors, department heads, and Deans are available to help the student understand and arrange to meet these requirements, but the student is responsible for fulfilling them. If, at the end of a student’s course of study, the requirements for graduation have not been satisfied, the degree will not be granted. For this reason, it is important for each student to be acquainted with all academic, financial, and administrative requirements within the prescribed deadlines and time limits. Leave of Absence Policy There are many reasons why graduate students could miss courses in a given academic year. These include medical reasons, military deployment, temporary changes in job status, or other reasons. In an effort to better identify students in these situations, along with providing a mechanism that grants a respite from the time limits for degree completion, a leave of absence policy has been created. This policy also excludes students who have not enrolled in courses in a given semester. Since they will be recognized as “on leave,” these students will not be included in the list of students eligible to be contacted by Graduate College staff. The following outlines the parameters of The Citadel Graduate College’s Leave of Absence Policy. Leave Of Absence Request Students who intend to take a pause from enrolling in courses for up to three semesters in a given academic year can communicate this to the Office of the Registrar through an online web form, available at http://www.citadel.edu/registrar-forms. Students may request a leave of absence for up to three semesters in an academic year (including summer, which constitutes a single term). Students with an approved leave of absence need not reapply for admission to the Graduate College unless the leave extends beyond three semesters in a given academic year. In such cases, they must request to reactivate their student record for their program of study using the form available on the Registrar’s Office webpage mentioned above. A leave of absence request should normally occur prior to the drop/add date. If the student’s request is made after these deadlines, a reasonable and compelling explanation for the delay must accompany the request. In such cases, supporting documentation (e.g. medical, mental health, deployment, temporary job transfer) should be provided with the request. The decision to grant the leave of absence is at the discretion of the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Students who request a leave of absence after the drop/add date during the semester may be responsible for at least a portion of the tuition for the classes in which they are enrolled. In such cases, students should consult with the Treasurer’s Office as well as the Office of Financial Aid to determine if their time away from campus impacts their student loan eligibility. Student Services Transcript Student Success Center A transcript is a confidential document and is released only when students make a request online at www.citadel.edu/root/registrartranscripts. The transcript fee is based on the method of delivery. Transcripts can be sent electronically, mailed, or picked up in the Registrar’s Office. An official college transcript is one that is sent directly from The Citadel to the requestor. It bears the college seal, along with a date and official signature. Most colleges require the official record. Transcripts sent from other colleges to The Citadel become the property of The Citadel and cannot be issued to the student as a third party. The Citadel’s Student Success Center (SSC) provides a wide range of academic support services. Included among these are the enhancement of writing, mathematical, and reading skills; the general improvement of academic performance in all subject areas; and an emphasis on retention throughout The Citadel’s academic community. In addition to individual and small-group tutorials held in the Center, the staff conducts requested workshops for both graduate and undergraduate classes. In all of its activities, the Center strives to assure that its efforts are consistent not only with the mission statement of The Citadel, but CGC Academic Catalog 23 �also with the objectives of the academic departments and specific graduate programs. Although there may be an occasional exceptional situation in which it is appropriate to restrict the nature of the assistance that may be offered by the Center (e.g., because of specific program accreditation issues that might impact, say, a particular assignment), all students are encouraged to take advantage of the resources offered by the Student Success Center. Disability Services Services for Students with Disabilities. The SSC empowers students to manage challenges and limitations that may be characteristic of their particular disabilities. Our professionally trained staff provide students with exceptional services as they transition to college or continue their studies at The Citadel. The office serves students with learning, physical, health, or psychiatric disabilities by managing the varying demands of The Citadel experience. In addition, to serving students, the staff assists The Citadel community in making programs, services, and activities accessible to everyone.

The graduate program in School Psychology is, by its nature, an applied practitioner program leading to an anticipated passing score on the PRAXIS II School Psychology subject test and certification as a Level II School Psychologist in South Carolina. A number of the courses are designed to facilitate the acquisition of hands-on experiences with various diagnostic, evaluation, and intervention techniques where skill acquisition is based on instructor demonstrations and modeling, guided individual and group practice and participation by the student, role playing, and group activities, such as simulations, that build the necessary foundations for the acquisition of the basic skills necessary to the practice of the profession of School Psychology. In these courses, a strict absence policy has been adopted to ensure that learning experiences are not compromised. Specifically, courses that fall under this absence policy are as follows: PSYC-503, PSYC-504, PSYC-505, PSYC-512, PSYC 612, PSYC-615/616, PSYC-617/618, PSYC605, PSYC-606, PSYC-607, PSYC-608, PSYC-621, and PSYC622.

The School offers programs to prepare school teachers, school counselors, literacy teachers, literacy coaches, and educational administrators. The Citadel has been involved in the preparation of teachers since the creation of the School of Education and Psychology in 1929. In 1954, the School of Education was approved as a separate department. Master’s degree programs for teachers and Master’s degree programs for prospective counselors were authorized in 1968. Master’s degree programs for school administrators were authorized in 1970. The Educational Specialist degree in educational administration was approved in 1975, and the Educational Specialist degree in School Psychology was approved in 1980. Prior to 1974, the South Carolina State Department of Education (SCDE) approved The Citadel’s Educator Preparation programs. In 1974, all professional education programs offered by The Citadel were initially accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). Both state-approved program status and national accreditation have been continuous since they were initially granted. The most recent SCDE, Commission on Higher Education (CHE), and NCATE/CAEP program reviews, conducted in the spring of 2013, resulted in continuing program accreditation approval. The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) granted accreditation in July 2005 to the School Counseling Programs which offers a Master of Education in Counselor Education. Statement of Philosophy The philosophy of the Zucker Family School of Education at The Citadel is based on five fundamental propositions. These propositions serve to orient the mission and conceptual base of the School, guide the actions and value system of the faculty, shape the curricula of the various programs, and provide to its faculty their sense of purpose and meaning for teaching, scholarship, and professional service. These five propositions are: 1. The faculty is committed to promoting education for all individuals to the fullest extent possible. With the implementation of appropriate teaching and assessment strategies, a fundamental guiding belief is that all students, though having unique learning styles and experiences, are capable of learning. 76 2. It is the educator’s responsibility, with the aid of appropriate resources and support, to establish a mutually respectful environment where effective learning occurs for all students. 3. Education is a systematic effort to facilitate the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values necessary for the student to function in a diverse society. 4. The faculty is committed to upholding the highest professional standards in all situations in which they model these standards to students through their teaching, research, and service endeavors. 5. The faculty is committed to an open interchange of ideas wherein the perspectives of all are valued. The School’s Conceptual Model The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit prepares principled educational leaders to be knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals. Candidates completing our programs are committed to ensuring that all students succeed in a learner- centered environment. Rationale: • Society is in need of principled educational professionals committed to ensuring all students learn; • All children and young adults require high quality educational experiences that enable them to compete and prosper in the global economy; and • Such high quality educational experiences require a transformed educational system focused on fostering twenty– first century knowledge and skills in all children and young adults. The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit is committed to the simultaneous transformation of the preparation of educational leaders and of the places where they work. Specifically, The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit seeks to develop principled educational leaders who: • Have mastered their subject matter and are skilled in using it to foster student learning; • Know the self who educates (Parker J. Palmer) and integrate this self-knowledge with content knowledge, knowledge of students, and in the context of becoming professional change agents committed to using this knowledge and skill to ensure that all students succeed in a learner-centered environment; and • Exemplify the highest ethical standards by modeling respect for all human beings and valuing diversity as an essential component of an effective learner-centered environment. Through our initial program for teacher candidates for P-12 schools and our advanced programs for professional educators in P-20 schools, The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit shapes cadets and graduate students into principled educational leaders capable of and committed to transforming our schools into learning communities where all succeed. The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit has identified 15 performance indicators for candidates to demonstrate that they are principled educational leaders who are knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals: CGC Academic Catalog �Knowledgeable Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Have mastered the subject matter of their field of professional study and practice; 2. Utilize the knowledge gained from developmental and learning theories to establish and implement an educational program that is varied, creative, and nurturing; 3. Model instructional and leadership theories of best practice; 4. Integrate appropriate technology to enhance learning; 5. Demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning; Reflective Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Develop and describe their philosophy of education and reflect upon its impact in the teaching and learning environment; 2. Develop and manage meaningful educational experiences that address the needs of all learners with respect for their individual and cultural experiences; 3. Construct, foster, and maintain a learner-centered environment in which all learners contribute and are actively engaged; 4. Apply their understanding of both context and research to plan, structure, facilitate, and monitor effective teaching and learning in the context of continual assessment; and 5. Reexamine their practice by reflectively and critically asking questions and seeking answers. Ethical Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Demonstrate commitment to a safe, supportive, learning environment; 2. Embrace and adhere to appropriate professional codes of ethics; 3. Value diversity and exhibit a caring, fair, and respectful attitude and respect toward all cultures; 4. Establish rapport with students, families, colleagues, and communities; 5. Meet obligations on time, dress professionally, and use language appropriately. The School’s Website The Zucker Family School of Education has a diverse faculty with a wide array of teaching and research interests. Additional information on these interests, as well as other departmental highlights, initiatives, and activities, can be viewed online: www.citadel.edu/education. Admission Test Policy Admission tests are required for all M.A.T. and Counselor Education degree programs.

An applicant must request the waiver in writing at the time of application from the appropriate academic program director. The Professional Education Board LiveText Account To facilitate the college-wide mission of preparing principled leaders for professional education, The Citadel established the Professional Education Board (PEB). The Citadel PEB’s primary focus is to foster academic environments that promote the development of principled leaders for the education profession and to facilitate the continuing improvement of professional education programs across the institution. In pursuing these goals, the PEB will concentrate on communication, assessment, and governance issues. The Citadel’s Dean of the Zucker Family School of Education chairs the Board, which is comprised of representatives from all of The Citadel’s professional education constituencies, including faculty, staff, students, and our P-12 colleagues. PEB members are appointed by the Dean of the School of Education in collaboration with the Deans of Humanities and Social Science, of Science and Mathematics, and of The Citadel Graduate College. Beginning in September 2006, the Professional Education Board meets monthly during each academic year. Zucker Family School of Education degree-seeking students (and those approved for certification only in counseling or educational leadership programs) must purchase a LiveText account at The Citadel’s Bookstore. LiveText makes it possible for education students to have secure access to their portfolios and other important materials. Through LiveText, faculty members and administrators collect data, generate reports from the data, and use this information to make informed program and unit decisions. Appeals Process Education students who have extenuating circumstances may request to appeal policies by writing to the School’s Admission, Retention, and Certification committees. Appeal letters should be addressed to the Dean of the School, who will direct it to either the Initial Programs Committee or the Advanced CGC Academic Catalog 77 �Programs Committee for recommendation. The committees’ recommendations regarding appeals will be forwarded to the Dean of the School who will review and work with the Provost and/or her designee for final action. Transfer Credit No more than 12 hours may be transferred from other accredited colleges or universities (e.g. Southern Association of Colleges, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, etc.). Only graduate credit hours in which grades of “B” or higher have been earned are transferable. Some programs allow fewer hours of transfer credit. Students should check the requirements for specific programs for the maximum number of credit hours that may be transferred into his or her program at The Citadel.

PSCI-574—Global Issues Three Credit Hours The course will review the new context for state interaction and global order. The most significant question is whether the international community can weather the storm of new challenges and threats without a central gatekeeper, such as the United States. Globalization has also given other states (established and newly emerging powers) opportunities to exploit the inability of the United States to foment a new architecture of stability and order. Follower states have found opportunities (many derived from the expanding and deepening global trading system) to undermine American dominance. Also, some states have moved to establish regional political and security alliances that not only speak to their needs (counter-terrorism, immigration, and natural resource exploitation, for example) but also dilute the “traditional” influence of the United States in these matters. At the same time, there has been a proliferation of “non-state actors” who are able to capitalize 176 on the measurable weakening of national authority and the hesitancy of nation-states to coherently identify, define, and deal with the new challenges. Students will review the impact of global issues from two perspectives: (1) challenges and (2) opportunities within the framework that the traditional role of states as “gatekeepers,” buffering and processing challenges to stability and order has been gradually been transformed. Throughout the course, student groups will take up several issues and proceed to analyze whether international institutions such as the United Nations, and regional and functional non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are in fact dysfunctional when confronted with the challenges of globalization. Student groups will also address the question of whether the Cold War origins and patterning of these NGOs are obstacles to the development of flexible and creative strategies. Finally, although it might be fairly argued that the traditionally conceived state’s influence and role has been diminished, it can also be proposed that the state system will not wither away quietly, and that states will engage in behavior necessary to protect and grow their influence—newly emerging states may resist the influence of older states, but the former seeks similar symbols of power and behave in ways to enhance their own economic and political power on the world stage. Students will be required to complete a comprehensive final exam and to submit a research paper that may be derived from one or more of the paradoxes and contradictions described above. Students with relevant experiences in the private sector, government, military, or non-governmental organizations may, with the permission of the instructor use such experiences to shape their research paradigms.

With these questions in mind, this course will develop your ability to analyze the causes, conduct, and consequences of intergroup conflict and war. We will begin by exploring the consequences of war for personal, national, international, and global security. We will then examine theories about the causes of war and apply them to understand the occurrence of World War I, World War II, and the Cold War. Next, we will explore the conduct and consequences of these wars at the doctrinal, strategic, operational, and tactical levels. Finally, we will discuss contemporary issues in war, peace, and security, including the causes, conduct, and consequences of the war on terror and the war in Iraq, weapons proliferation, the future of military technology, the rise of new great powers, humanitarian intervention, and alternatives to war.

In addition, honor includes integrity; “doing the right thing when no one is watching.” Finally, honorable behavior includes exercising the moral courage to “do the right thing when everyone is watching.” The Honor Code is the foundation of our academic enterprise. Duty: embraces the need to accept and accomplish the responsibilities assigned as a member of the campus community. Citadel students hold themselves and others accountable for their actions, and put service before self. Respect: empathizes to treat other people with dignity and worth – the way you want others to treat you. Respect for others eliminates any form of prejudice, discrimination, or harassment (including but not limited to rank, position, age, race, color, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, physical attributes, etc.). In addition, respect for others means to respect the positions of those in authority that include faculty, staff, administrators, active duty personnel, and the leadership of The Citadel. Finally, respect includes a healthy respect for one’s self. Mission As a higher education institution, The Citadel’s mission is to educate and develop our students to become principled leaders in all walks of life by instilling the core values of The Citadel in a disciplined and intellectually challenging environment. A unique feature of this environment for the South Carolina Corps of Cadets is the sense of camaraderie produced through teamwork and service to others while following a military lifestyle. The Citadel strives to produce graduates who have insight into issues, ideas, and values that are of importance to society. It is equally important that Citadel graduates are capable of both critical and creative thinking, have effective communication skills, can apply abstract concepts to concrete situations, and possess the methodological skills needed to gather and analyze information. Throughout its history, The Citadel’s primary purpose has been to educate undergraduates as members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets and to prepare them for post-graduate positions of leadership through academic programs of recognized excellence supported by the best features of a military environment. The cadet lifestyle provides a structured environment that supports growth and development of each student’s intellect, character, discipline, and physical fitness; The four pillars which define The Citadel experience. A complementary purpose of The Citadel, realized through The Citadel Graduate College, is to provide the citizens of the Lowcountry and the State of South Carolina opportunities for professional development by offering a broad range of educational programs of recognized excellence at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. These programs are designed to accommodate the needs of non-traditional students seeking traditional and demanding academic challenges. Institutional Characteristics. The Citadel is a coeducational, comprehensive, public, four-year institution whose primary undergraduate student body consists of approximately 2400 members of the Corps of Cadets, all of whom reside on campus. The primary service area for these students is regional, with approximately half of each freshman class coming from South Carolina. The Citadel, however, does draw undergraduate students from all parts of the United States and many foreign countries. The college offers a wide range of baccalaureate degree programs across five academic schools in the humanities, social and natural sciences, business administration, engineering, and education. These academic programs prepare graduates for a variety of careers; about half of these graduates enter business and the professions, a third or more enter the military and government service, and the remainder go directly into graduate and professional study. Many graduates choose to pursue professional or graduate degrees later in their careers. Through its evening undergraduate and graduate programs, The Citadel serves a degree-seeking population of approximately 1,300. Meeting the needs of the Lowcountry in terms of instruction, public service, and research, including such initiatives as cooperative programs with other educational institutions, is an important part of The Citadel’s mission. Together, the Corps of Cadets, the Transfer Program, and The Citadel Graduate College enroll approximately 3,600 students, about three-fourths of whom come from South Carolina. In its educational programs, The Citadel acknowledges and endorses the teacher-scholar ideal, recognizing that the excellence of all of its academic programs is dependent upon the quality of its faculty. This ideal manifests through teaching and lecturing, researching, writing, publishing, and public service. The Citadel’s faculty also address audiences beyond the College by sharing their knowledge with other scholars and with the public. 6 CGC Academic Catalog �The Citadel Graduate Program’s Mission/Purpose An important component of a positive educational experience for students involves an intentional effort to meet their needs and offer service that underscores The Citadel’s commitment to principled leadership. Service: Creating a culture that values service, fosters mutual respect, and makes the student’s needs the most important priority; implementing new technologies that enhance our services; and providing timely, efficient, and accurate information to all requests. Performance: By ensuring a quality educational experience through administrative oversight of programs and the regular review of policies and procedures; conducting analysis of existing data and generating reports to identify patterns and trends within the undergraduate programs; creating research opportunities for students and faculty; and assisting departments with implementing creative delivery methods of academic programs.

Every effort is made to provide information in the catalog that is accurate at the time the catalog is prepared. However, information on regulations, policies, fees, curricula, courses, and other matters is subject to change at any time during the period for which the catalog is in effect. Application and Admissions Each program of study shall be governed by the program requirements in effect on the date of enrollment. If a student withdraws from the college or fails to maintain enrollment for one year and subsequently returns, the catalog requirements in effect at the time of return will prevail. Any exception to policies in this catalog, purported to have been made verbally to a student by an official of the college, are null and void unless documented with a signed statement from the college official authorized to make the exception. This catalog is not an unchangeable contract but an announcement of the current policies. Implicit in each student’s matriculation at The Citadel is an unwritten agreement to comply with the institution’s rules and regulations, which The Citadel may modify to ensure the quality of its academic programs. When graduation requirements are changed, every effort will be made to insure that the new requirements can be met by the student’s original expected graduation date. Nonetheless, each student is expected to read and be aware of the policies and procedures contained in the catalog in order to assure that admissions, registration, and graduation procedures are being followed. The college cannot assume responsibility for a student who does not comply with policy or procedure. The Citadel Graduate College seeks to enroll students whose motivation and educational backgrounds demonstrate a strong potential for success in the academic program of their choice. Specific entrance requirements are detailed in the degree program sections of this catalog. The application process at The Citadel Graduate College (CGC) is a two-part process. The applicant must be accepted into the program to which they seek a degree and must be accepted into the Citadel by the Citadel Graduate College. The Application consists of the following: 1. Completion of the online graduate application along with the non-refundable application fee; 2. Official transcripts from the undergraduate institution conferring the applicant’s bachelor degree and transcripts from all postgraduate institutions attended. 3. Other supplemental items, which may include official test scores (GMAT, GRE or MAT- see program requirements for acceptable test and test scores), as required by the program. 4. An official TOEFL score if English is not the native language. The minimum acceptable score of 550 paper-based, 213 computer-based, or 79 internet-based; *Applicants may be exempted from the TOEFL requirement if the applicant has a minimum of 2 years of course study, with a 3.0 or higher GPA, from an institution accredited by a United States accreditation entity, or the international equivalent from a university of recognized standing in a country in which all instruction is provided in English. Therefore, applicants with completed coursework from the U.S., Australia, Canada (except Quebec), New Zealand, Singapore, and the United Kingdom may be eligible for an exemption. All exemption requests must be made in writing to The Citadel Graduate College and be accompanied by the domestic transcripts showing the minimum requirements for a waiver have been met. Other exceptions may be considered on a case by case basis with written justification and supporting documentation submitted to the Graduate College for review. 5. Additional documentation as required by individual programs. Our applicant are able to log into the Citadel’s application portal to view a list of required supplemental items at any time. The requirements for acceptance into specific programs and degrees are described in this catalog for each program. If accepted, official copies of all admissions documents must be sent directly to the Graduate College, and admission test scores (if required) must be submitted directly from the testing organization and current within five years of application. Full acceptance is not granted until both the program and Graduate College’s requirements are met. After acceptance by the Graduate College, any non- U.S. citizen must complete the application for an F1 Visa. CGC Academic Catalog 9 �Applicants must not have a record of conviction of a criminal offense showing poor moral character. Upon acceptance, a letter is sent to the student identifying their faculty advisor. Students are encouraged to schedule an appointment for advising upon admission. While each program has its own set of admissions requirements, ultimate authority to admit a student rests with the provost or her designee. Typically, departments and programs have the authority to determine admissions criteria and the provost intervenes only in unusual or extraordinary circumstances. However, the decision by the provost as the chief academic officer for the college is final. Legal Presence and Residency The State of South Carolina requires all state colleges and universities to verify each student’s legal presence in the United States. As part of the admissions process, each student is required to submit a photocopy of a valid South Carolina Driver’s License, birth certificate, or valid U.S. passport. Joint Degree Programs The Citadel participates in joint graduate degree and certificate programs with the College of Charleston in Computer Science, English, and History. Students routinely take courses at both institutions. Citadel students will register for all their Computer Science, English, and History at The Citadel, even when a particular course may be offered at the College of Charleston. Students who have declared a home institution must complete at least 33% of their coursework at that institution. Veteran’s Status as a Student on The Citadel Campus The Citadel welcomes active duty, veterans, and their families to become part of our educational community. The Veteran Student Success Center hosts dedicated resources to assist our veteran and active duty students as they pursue their graduate education. Admission and Student Categories Graduate students may be admitted to the Citadel in one of the below categories. Degree seeking - A graduate student is classified as degree seeking if they hold a bachelor’s degree or an advanced degree, all admission requirements are met and the student has been admitted to a degree program. Non-degree seeking - A graduate student is classified as nondegree seeking if they hold a bachelor’s degree or an advanced degree but who, at the time of the application, does not plan to pursue a degree. This category authorizes the student to take no more than 8 hours total. Enrolling in courses does not imply admission to a degree program. Persons admitted to the non-degree student status who later wish to become degree seeking must file an application for the desired program and comply with the admission requirements stated above. 10 Senior Citizens - South Carolina Senior citizens, those who are age 60 and over and legal residents of the state, who wish to take courses tuition-free at The Citadel are eligible to enroll as a degreeseeking or non-degree seeking student on a space available basis. If a student wishes to pursue a degree, they must submit an application for the program of study and follow the appropriate admissions protocol. Up to 8 credit hours taken as a non-degree seeking student may be transferred into the program. Proof of age (SC Driver’s License) is required at the time of application to be awarded free tuition. Registration for classes as a senior citizen is allowed on a space available basis—the timeline for registration is the Monday prior to the start of each semester. Additionally, permission from the instructor may be needed to take a course as a non-degree student. Students are encouraged to request this permission ahead of time and forward the approval in writing to the Registrar’s Office at registrar@citadel.edu. International Students - An international student who applies to a graduate program at The Citadel must complete the following requirements after admission and before enrolling in classes: 1. Provide a completed Immigration Request form. 2. If applying for a student visa or transferring a student visa from another institution, must provide evidence of ability to meet all financial obligations while in graduate study at The Citadel by completing the Certification of Finances form prior to enrolling in courses. 3. International students may not register before full acceptance into a degree program and clearance from the International Student Director. Provisional Status - Applicants who do not meet the minimum GPA and/or test score required by their program’s admission criteria may be allowed to pursue coursework as a provisionally admitted student. The purpose of the provisional status is to monitor and support the students’ academic success. Provisional status requires meeting specific academic standards in coursework. Refer to the degree program for provisional requirements. Undergraduate Students Taking Graduate Courses Academic seniors with a cumulative Grade Point Average of at least a 3.20 may take up to a maximum of twelve hours of graduate courses through The Citadel Graduate College once they have reached senior status. As part of the maximum 12 hours of graduate credit, no undergraduate student may take more than six credit hours of graduate credit in any one term (Fall, Spring, Summer). These courses may provide students a head start on earning a graduate certificate or a graduate degree, but graduate courses may not be used to meet undergraduate degree requirements unless the student is formally admitted to an accelerated program and will NEVER be used in the computation of the undergraduate GPA. Students must have the permission of the Associate Provost. Undergraduate students accepted in an accelerated program at The Citadel may take and share up to twelve hours of structured graduate credit between the graduate and undergraduate majors. Refer to specific accelerated program requirements for total hours permitted to share. CGC Academic Catalog �Admission Test Advisement and the Planned Program For any graduate programs that require submission of an official admissions test score, the test must be current within five years of the application. See the appropriate program for the type of test(s) required. Upon acceptance into a degree program, a student is assigned an advisor. It is the student’s responsibility to confer with this advisor at an early date and at periodic intervals to assure appropriate course selection and awareness of degree requirements. Degree candidates in some programs must file an official program of study. This program of study will be developed in consultation with the student’s advisor and approved by the appropriate Dean or Department Head. This program of study is filed in the Registrar’s Office and will be used in the degree audit process. It is a joint responsibility of the advisor and student to maintain the program of study in a current state. Modifications in a program of study can be accomplished with the written approval of the appropriate Dean or Department Head. Students who wish to select a new degree program must file an application and fee, meet all admission requirements of the new degree program, and be accepted into the new degree program before registration in the new program should occur. Completion of coursework for a program in which a student has not been formally accepted does not imply admission into that program. A student should pursue no more than 8 credit hours of coursework for a program to which they have not been formally accepted. Applicants for some graduate programs in The Citadel who possess a master’s or doctorate degree from an accredited institution may be eligible to waive the requirement to supply an admissions test score. The applicant must send the written waiver request and transcript showing a conferred Master’s or higher degree, directly to the Graduate College. Registration Registration is conducted online through Lesesne Gateway. Students may not attend class until they are fully registered and listed on the class roster. Completed registrations will be honored on a first-come, first- served basis. Registration is not completed until all fees are paid. All fees are due by published calendar dates. Knowingly attending class without paying is an integrity violation and will result in dismissal from the college. Any changes in registration must be made prior to the end of the term’s Drop/Add period. Information concerning class times and important registration dates can be found for each academic term online at: http://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-courses. Completion of coursework for a program in which a student has not been formally accepted does not imply admission into that program. A student may not pursue more than 8 credit hours of coursework for a program to which they have not been formally accepted. Drop/Add and Withdrawals Formal notice of intent to drop or withdraw from any class is necessary in all cases. The dates for dropping and withdrawing are listed in the term calendar at: http://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-important-dates. To drop or add a course from the course schedule or to change sections within a course, a student must drop/add through Lesesne Gateway. Approval to drop a course and receive a refund after the published drop date is granted only under documentable extenuating circumstances (i.e. death in immediate family, serious medical issues, military deployment). After the drop period, students who choose to withdraw must complete a withdrawal form available in the Registrar’s Office or online. Course withdrawal means a student is withdrawing from a course after the drop/add date has passed. A grade of “W” will appear on the student transcript. The “W” does not affect the student’s grade point average (GPA). Ceasing to attend a course does not constitute an official drop or withdrawal from the course. Any withdrawal request that occurs after the published withdrawal date must have a written justification for the late request to accompany the withdrawal form. Late withdrawal requests will be approved on a case-by-case basis by both the academic dean and the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management. Audit Policy A student may elect to audit a course for no credit. Permission to audit must be obtained from the school/department offering the course and a form must be submitted. Students must possess an undergraduate degree from an accredited college or university to audit a graduate level course. Students cannot switch from credit to audit status, or vice versa, after two class meetings. Auditors must apply and be accepted as a non-degree seeking student and are permitted to register for a class on a “space available” basis. The audit tuition is the same as the regular credit hour tuition. Course Load Graduate students are considered full-time if they carry nine (9) credit hours accumulated over any combination of courses during a full semester. The maximum credit any graduate student may carry is 17 credits per full semester (Fall, Spring, or Summer). For students enrolled in one mini term per semester, 4.5 credit hours will be considered full-time for the mini term. The semester hour load for students wishing to be classified as part-time is 4.5 credit hours during a full semester. Students holding Citadel graduate assistantships will be considered as full time if they are taking at least six (6) semester hours. Students enrolled in any combination of summer sessions may not exceed a maximum of five courses (15 credit hours, but 17 credit hours including lab courses). In addition, the maximum load allowed in an individual summer term is 7 credit hours (Full Summer, Summer I, Summer II, Mini term A, Mini Term B). Summer School The Citadel’s Summer School is managed by the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management who has the responsibility for the coordination and administration of all aspects of The Citadel’s graduate and undergraduate summer school programs. CGC Academic Catalog 11 �All Summer School students are ultimately the academic and administrative responsibility of the Provost. Students residing in the barracks, regardless of academic status are the disciplinary responsibility of the commandant; all other students who are not members of the corps of cadets remain as stated above. head with a copy of the course description from the catalog of the originating institution and the course syllabus. An official copy of the transcript for the institution where the credit was earned must be on file with the Graduate College. Course Substitution Course substitutions in degree programs can only be authorized by the approval of the Head of the Department and Dean of the School. Forms to initiate this procedure are available in the Registrar’s Office or online. English Fluency Policy In accordance with the laws of South Carolina, The Citadel ensures the English fluency of its teaching faculty. Should a student challenge the English fluency of a member of the faculty, standard procedures for student academic grievances will be followed. If a review committee is called for, the native language of one of the faculty members will not be English. Readmission Policy In exceptional and extraordinary circumstances, a graduate student can petition their academic school dean for reinstatement through a letter of appeal, but the granting of such appeals would be considered unusual and rare. Transfer Credit The Citadel Graduate College does permit up to 12 hours of transfer credit from other accredited higher education institutions and from military education and training recommended for credit by the American Council on Education. Exceptions may be granted by the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Only graduate credit hours in which grades of “B” or higher have been earned are transferable and applicable to degree requirements. Some programs allow fewer hours of transfer credit. Students should check the requirements for specific programs for the maximum number of credit hours that may be transferred into The Citadel. To be transferred, credit hours must have been earned within six years of the date of admission to The Citadel. Students who desire to take a course at another institution for transfer while enrolled in CGC must obtain prior approval from their department head. Acceptance of transfer credits within the foregoing rules is the prerogative of the academic department or school. Ordinarily, course work accepted for transfer must parallel course work available at The Citadel. However, where the head of the major department or Dean of the school feels that graduate course work not equivalent to courses at The Citadel will enhance the program, up to six semester hours of such credit may be acceptable. These will be part of the maximum allowable transfer hours for that program. Graduate students applying for transfer credit will use the “Transfer Credit for Graduate Programs” form located online at http://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-forms. Submit the form to the Registrar’s Office through the student’s advisor and department 12 CGC Academic Catalog �Expenses & Financial Aid Fee Payment The Citadel Treasurer’s Office is responsible for the collection of monies due to The Citadel. All fees are due and payable at the time of registration. If fees are not paid by the date on the term calendar, the student may be dropped from registered classes. Checks should be made payable to The Citadel and mailed to 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, SC 29409. Fees may also be paid online with Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express. Electronic check payments are available at no charge. Deferred payment plans may be arranged in advance of a semester through the Citadel Tuition Payment Plan. Forms are available on the Treasurer’s webpage at www.citadel.edu/treasurer. The Citadel reserves the right to adjust fees at any time to meet the current cost of operation. Fee schedules are published each semester on The Citadel’s web page. All correspondence concerning fees, payments, and status of accounts should be directed to the Treasurer’s office. Financial Aid and Scholarships The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships administers student loan applications, grants, scholarships, and work-study programs. The office is located in Bond Hall, Room 138, and staff can be reached at (843) 953-5187 or by email at financial_aid@citadel. edu. Forms and Deadlines To apply for financial aid at The Citadel, all students should file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at fafsa. ed.gov as soon as possible after October 1 each year. Additional information may be requested by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships. Students are responsible for checking their Lesesne Gateway accounts, completing all requested paperwork, and meeting financial aid requirements in a timely manner. Funds are limited, so late applications are considered for aid only if resources are still available. FAFSA Priority Deadline Dates Academic year (fall and spring) October 31 Fall only October 31 Spring only October 1 Summer April 1 Applicants who have not completed all financial aid paperwork by June 30 should not expect to receive notification of awards prior to the beginning of fall semester. These applicants should be prepared to pay for their tuition, fees, and other costs by established fee payment deadlines. Students are reimbursed if subsequently determined to be eligible for financial aid. Determining Financial Need The amount of financial aid is based on the FAFSA form the applicant files after October 1 each year. This form solicits information about the family’s current financial situation and produces an “expected family contribution” (EFC). Adjusted gross income data from tax forms are used, along with current asset information to determine family resources. Allowances are made for federal and state taxes, social security, employment (when both parents work), unusual medical and dental expenses, and family size. Other factors considered include any unusual expenses and the number of family members in college. In its simplest definition, financial need is the difference between what a student will pay to attend college and the expected family contribution, as determined by the need analysis. If costs exceed the amount of family contribution, then the applicant has “demonstrated” financial need. Dependent or Independent Status Federal student aid programs are based on the premise that parents have the primary responsibility of financing their children’s education. However, independent students are not required to submit parental data. Students who fall into at least one of the following categories are considered independent: • He/she is at least 24 years old by Dec 31 of the academic year. • He/she is a graduate student. • He/she is married. • He/she is currently serving on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces for purposes other than training. • He/she is a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces. • He/she has children (or other dependents) and will provide more than half of their support. • He/she was in foster care or deemed a dependent or ward of the court. • He/she was an emancipated minor or in legal guardianship as determined by a court. • He/she is determined to be an unaccompanied youth who is homeless or self-supporting and at risk of being homeless. Federal Eligibility Requirements Any student who is accepted for admission is eligible to request financial assistance. However, there are several general eligibility requirements a student must meet to receive federal financial aid: 1. A student must be admitted to The Citadel as a regular or provisional student. 2. A student must be a U.S. citizen, or a national or permanent resident. 3. A student may not receive aid if he or she is in default at any institution on any Federal Student Loan Program. 4. Students must be enrolled at least half-time. This is defined as 4.5 hours/semester for graduate students and six (6) hours/semester for undergraduate students. The only exception to this rule will be internships and practicums, which, given their somewhat unique composition and requirements, qualify a student for half-time status. This definition of half-time status is important to be eligible for financial aid and to qualify for in-school deferment on prior federal student loans. 5. A student may not receive aid if he or she owes a repayment at any institution on a Pell Grant, Supplemental Grant, or State Student Incentive Grant. CGC Academic Catalog 13 �6. 7. A student must have the minimum grade point average and must make satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward a degree to continue to receive federal financial aid. A graduate certificate student is not eligible for federal financial aid. 2. Plan approved by Academic Affairs and signed by both the advisor and the student, and A letter written by the student that defines why the student failed to make SAP and what has changed that enables the student to meet SAP at the next evaluation. Please visit http://www.citadel.edu/finaid for detailed information about the various financial aid programs offered. If a student fails to either regain regular SAP eligibility after one semester or meet the conditions of the Academic Improvement Plan, the student is ineligible to receive federal financial aid (Title IV aid). Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) for Financial Aid Recipients Appeal Deadlines Completed appeal forms must be turned in two weeks before the end of the term for which the appeal is filed. Types of Financial Aid In compliance with regulations governing federal and/or state financial aid programs, The Citadel is required to monitor each student to be certain that he or she is maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in his or her course of study. SAP standards are separate from The Citadel’s academic policies and are reviewed annually at the end of each spring semester. How the Policy Works Students who fail to meet published SAP standards will be ineligible to receive federal or state financial aid funds. However, those students failing to meet the minimum standards, as prescribed in this policy, may appeal their status by following outlined conditions. Academic Year The academic year for SAP determination is comprised of the fall, spring, and summer terms. Minimum Standards Unsatisfactory academic progress is defined as a failure to meet at least one of the following standards: Graduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 9 hours/semester) must earn 18 credit hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 9 hours. b. Part-time students (enrolled in 4.5 hours/semester) must earn at least 66% of credit hours attempted in an academic year. 2. GPA – A student must earn at least a 3.0 grade point average. 3. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 150% of the student’s program length. SAP Appeal Students who have not met SAP have the opportunity to complete an appeal to regain eligibility for federal aid. Completion of this process does not guarantee reinstatement of federal financial aid. Students are responsible for full payment of tuition/fees regardless of financial aid status. It is also the student’s responsibility to be aware of and to meet all fee payment and financial aid deadlines. The SAP Appeal form is available on the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarship’s webpage on The Citadel website at citadel.edu. The SAP Appeal must include: 1. A completed SAP Appeal Form and Academic Improvement 14 Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: “A” Superior “B” Very Good “C” Satisfactory; Acceptable “D” Marginal; Passing “F” Unsatisfactory “P” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that do not carry credit hours to designate passing performance “S” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that carry credit hours to designate that a grade of “A”, “B” or “C” has been earned and credit has been awarded “U” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses and in ENGL 101 to designate that a grade of “D” or “F” has been earned and no credit has been awarded “W” Withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline “I” An Incomplete is awarded when course requirements have been very nearly met but for authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. “IP” Grade assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed after two full semesters, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Students who are enrolled in audit courses will not receive financial aid for these courses. Students can access midterm progress and semester grade reports online by using BANNER Self-Service through the Lesesne Gateway portal. Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA/Grade Replacement The regulatory definition for full-time enrollment status (for undergraduates) has been revised to allow a student to retake (one time only per previously passed course) any previously passed course. For this purpose, passed means any grade higher than an “F,” regardless of any school or program policy requiring a higher qualitative grade or measure to have been considered to have passed the course. This retaken class may be counted towards a student’s enrollment status, and the student may be awarded Title IV aid for the enrollment status based on inclusion of the class. A CGC Academic Catalog �student may be repeatedly paid for repeatedly failing the same course (normal SAP policy still applies to such cases), and if a student withdraws before completing the course that he or she is being paid Title IV funds for retaking, then that is not counted as his or her one allowed retake for that course. However, if a student passed a class once, then is repaid for retaking it, and fails the second time, that failure counts as their paid retake, and the student may not be paid for retaking the class a third time. The percentage earned will be calculated based on the following schedule: Week 1 6 percent Week 2 12 percent Week 3 18 percent Week 4 25 percent Transfer Credits When evaluating SAP, a student’s transfer credits, accepted by The Citadel toward completion of the student’s degree program, will count as both credit hours attempted and hours earned. Week 5 31 percent Week 6 37 percent Week 7 43 percent Week 8 50 percent Change of Major Students that have changed majors and earn more than the maximum allowable number of credit hours toward graduation will be required to submit an SAP Appeal. Week 9 56 percent Week 10 60 percent Week 11-16 100 percent Second Degrees Students that are completing a second degree will be required to submit an SAP Appeal to explain the reason behind earning more than 150% of allowable credit hours. Financial Aid Funds Covered By SAP Standards • Federal Pell Grant • Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) • Federal Work Study • Federal Direct Loan, subsidized and unsubsidized • Federal Direct PLUS Loan • Federal Direct Graduate PLUS Loan • South Carolina Teachers Loan • South Carolina Career Changers Loan • South Carolina Palmetto Fellows Scholarship • South Carolina LIFE Scholarship • South Carolina Need-Based Grant • Other federal/state programs as required • Some Private Educational Loans (as required by the lender) Financial Aid Refund and Repayment Policy Refunds Refunds will be returned to the programs from which the student received aid. The Higher Education Act of 1998, Public Law 105244, substantially changed the way funds paid toward a student’s education are managed should the student, as a recipient of federal financial aid, withdraw from school. If a student who was awarded financial aid withdraws from school, he/she is eligible for the “institutionally-determined refund” that remains after the immediate repayments of the financial aid award to the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships. This policy also applies to students on whose behalf a parent has borrowed a Title IV loan. Refunds are returned to the programs that awarded the student aid. In the case of federal financial aid, a statutory schedule is used to determine the amount of federal financial aid that has been earned based on the period the student was in attendance. Up through the 60% point, in each payment period of enrollment, a pro rata schedule is used to determine how much federal financial aid the student will receive. After the 60% point, in the payment period of enrollment, a student has earned 100% of the federal funds awarded for the period. For example, if a student has received $1,000 in Federal Financial Aid and withdraws within the first week of classes, that student will receive 6 percent ($60) of the aid award applied to total charges. The remaining $940 will be returned to the Federal Financial Aid programs in the following order: 1. Unsubsidized Student Loans 2. Subsidized Student Loans 3. Perkins Loans 4. PLUS Loans/Graduate PLUS Loans 5. Federal Grants 6. Other Assistance under Title IV The refund and repayment provisions mandated by the federal government for federal aid recipients apply when a student receives financial aid funds and withdraws, drops out, takes an unapproved leave of absence, fails to return from an approved leave of absence, is expelled, or otherwise fails to complete the period of enrollment for which he or she was charged. The refund and repayment requirements DO NOT APPLY to a student who: • Withdraws, drops out, or is expelled before his or her first day of class, or • Withdraws from some classes, but continues to be enrolled in other classes, or • Does not receive funds for the period in question. (Students whose parents received a PLUS Loan are considered to have received funds and so are covered for the refund and repayment requirements.) Repayments If a student’s non-instructional educational expenses (allowances as prescribed below) incurred up to the time of withdrawal exceed the amount of cash disbursement, the student does not owe a repayment. If cash disbursed exceeds the non-instructional costs of education incurred up to the time of withdrawal, the student does owe a repayment. This repayment is the difference between costs incurred and the actual cash refund received. Non-instructional expenses are determined by calculating the percentage of room, board, books, supplies, travel, and personal expenses incurred during the portion of the term a student is enrolled. Off-campus board and personal expenses are prorated on a weekly basis. There is no proration of on-campus room charges. A percentage of books, supplies, and travel costs is allowed based on length of enrollment. CGC Academic Catalog 15 �Student Aid Accounts to be Refunded and Repaid Once the amounts to be refunded and/or repaid are determined, the aid programs from which the student received funds will be reimbursed in the following order: 1. Federal Direct/Stafford loans 2. Federal Perkins loans 3. Federal PLUS loans received on behalf of the student 4. Federal Pell Grants 5. Federal SEOG Grants 6. Other Title IV programs 7. Other federal, state, private, or institutional student financial assistance received by the student for which refunds are required 8. The student Refunds No fees are refunded after the published drop deadline. This date is usually following two class meetings and is published in the term calendar ahttp://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-importantdates. To obtain the appropriate refund, a student must drop the course via Lesesne Gateway. The Citadel Graduate College may authorize a refund for extenuating circumstances after the scheduled refund date if a formal appeal is made in writing to the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management. Extenuating circumstances are defined as a death in immediate family, serious medical issues, or military deployment. Registration, technology, infrastructure, and application fees are not refundable. Other Assistance Vocational Rehabilitation Scholarships: This program provides for education and training if the student has a physical or mental disability that is a substantial handicap to employment and if there exists reasonable expectation that vocational rehabilitation services may lead to gainful employment. Additional information is available through the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation in the student’s home state. College Budget Plans: The Citadel Tuition Payment Plan (CTPP) allows all students and families to finance the cost of Tuition, Auxiliary Fees (Housing/Room/Board) and OneCard. The plan is offered as a service to the student, allowing the student to finance education and related costs over the period of a semester. To calculate the amount to include in the plan, students should subtract financial aid and any scholarships from their balance- and only place their uncovered expenses in the payment pan. There is a $50 enrollment fee per term. The plan is for 4 equal payments. Enrollment deadlines can be found on the Treasurer’s web page at www.citadel.edu\treasurer. Failure to pay any outstanding balance by the end of the semester will result in a registration hold being placed on their account until the balance is paid off. Veterans Services: Services are administered under the umbrella of student financial aid at The Citadel. Veteran services are intended to meet the needs of students receiving benefits under the following programs: • Ch. 30—Montgomery GI Bill ®—Active Duty, Veterans • Ch. 31—Vocational Rehabilitation • Ch. 33—Post 9-11 GI Bill® • Ch. 35—Dependents’ Educational Assistance Program • Ch. 1606—Montgomery GI Bill®—Selected Reserve Due to the complexity of VA educational benefits, students are encouraged to contact The Citadel’s Veterans Student Success Office well in advance of the beginning of the semester. Students who have already applied for benefits should submit a copy of their Department of Veterans Affairs Certificate Eligibility. In compliance with federal regulations, students are required to follow guidelines set by the Department of Veterans Affairs. VA Certification Policies and Procedures can be found on The Citadel’s website under Veterans Services. Staff can be reached at 843-9539824 or email at va_benefits@citadel.edu. 16 CGC Academic Catalog �Academic Regulations and Procedures Application for Resident Status for Tuition and Fee Purposes Any student or prospective student who is uncertain about payment of in-state tuition and fees has the responsibility of securing a ruling from The Citadel by providing all relevant information on special application forms. These forms can be obtained from the Office of the Registrar, Bond Hall, Room 173, or online at http://www.citadel.edu/registrar/forms/. Completed forms must be returned to that office at least four to six weeks prior to registration for any semester or summer term for which the student is attempting to qualify for in-state tuition and fee rate. Requirements for Graduation In addition to the program requirements, the following requirements must be met for graduation. The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar (LDRS 500) is an online seminar in which graduate students at The Citadel learn about principled leadership and the institution’s core values – honor, duty, and respect. Participants focus on what it means to be a member of The Citadel community, and the application of core values as a guiding feature of one’s place in life and in leadership within an organization. Students must complete LDRS 500 and the protection of minors module in their first two semesters of study at The Citadel. Students who fail to successfully complete LDRS 500 after two semesters will be placed on academic hold and will not be allowed to continue in their coursework until LDRS 500 is successfully completed. Protection of Minors The Citadel is committed to the safety of all individuals in its community. The College has particular concern for those who are potentially vulnerable, including minor children, who require special attention and protection. Our online training requirement establishes guidelines for those in the college community who may work or interact with individuals under 18 years of age, with the goal of promoting the safety and wellbeing of minors. All degree-seeking graduate students (including those enrolled in graduate certificates) who enroll in Citadel course(s) are required to successfully complete our designated protection of minors training module at the beginning of their graduate program. Graduate students complete the training through their participation in LDRS 500. Students who have completed equivalent training in the last five years may provide a copy of their certificate of completion by uploading it through their Principled Leadership Seminar course – LDRS 500. The Citadel Student Honor Code Honor Code Statement: It is the responsibility of all community members to promote, abide by, and enforce the following honor code: “A Citadel student (e.g. graduate, undergraduate, or veteran) does not lie, cheat, steal, nor tolerate those who do.” It is the responsibility of all Citadel community members to promote, abide by, and enforce the following honor code.

Each student does his or her own work and refrains from any form of academic dishonesty, including plagiarism and cheating. In personal conduct, each student acts in a professional and ethical manner and refrains from any form of disrespectful behavior to any other member of The Citadel community. In addition to students enrolled in degree programs and certificates, or as part of a joint program with other institutions, this honor code is also applicable to transient students and cadets who enroll in courses during the summer. Definition of Terms: In general, four types of conduct fall under the honor code: lying, cheating, stealing, and the toleration of those who engage in any of these activities. 1) Lying.

Note: this training should be similar in nature to what cadet honor court members receive on procedures and content. Procedures: Any student, faculty member, or administrator may charge a student with an honor code violation. All accused students participating in Honor Council hearings are guaranteed the following rights during a hearing: 1. The right to a representative. In all college hearings and boards in which a student faces suspension, dismissal or expulsion, the student may be represented by up to two student representatives. Representatives must be students in the same academic program as the student facing disciplinary action, i.e., graduate students or evening undergraduate students may not serve as representatives for cadets, nor may cadets serve as representatives for graduate or evening undergraduate students. Representatives may participate in the board or hearing, including speaking directly to the board or hearing officer and questioning witnesses. 2. The right to question all witnesses. In cases where the complainant is an alleged victim, accommodations may be made. 3. The right to present evidence and call witnesses. 4. The right to decline making any statements or answering questions. In doing so, the Council may draw inferences, either positively or negatively, from such a refusal. 5.

All procedural questions are subject to the final decision of the Honor Council Chair. 8. After the portion of the hearing concludes in which all pertinent information has been received, the Honor Council shall determine whether the accused student is in violation of the Non-Cadet Honor Code. 9. The determination shall be made on the basis of a preponderance of the evidence--whether it is more likely than not that the accused student violated the Honor Code. Formal rules or process, procedure, and/or technical rules of evidence, such as those applied in criminal or civil court, are not used in these proceedings. 10. There shall be a single audio recording of all student conduct hearings (not including deliberations). Deliberations should not be recorded. The record shall be the property of The Citadel.

Deliberations by Board - Student will be notified of the decision in writing via university e-mail, with a hardcopy sent by registered mail, within three business days. Range of Sanctions: Note: This list is not exhaustive and may be modified to meet particular circumstances in any given case. All sanctions become a part of student’s official record. Final appeals of Honor Council rulings are made to the President. The procedure for appeals is found in the campus policies and procedures manual. CGC Academic Catalog �1. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Expulsion—Permanent forced withdrawal from The Citadel. Although this may be imposed as a first offense for serious cases, it is usually imposed after other disciplinary methods have not achieved desired results. In all cases in which expulsion is appropriate, the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management will submit documentation and findings to the President of the college for final disposition. The President may elect, at his discretion, to impose another penalty. The student will be notified of the President’s decision, and that decision is final. A student’s suspension or expulsion will be noted on his or her transcripts. Dismissal—Forced withdrawal from The Citadel for two semesters. Suspension—Forced withdrawal from The Citadel for one semester. In instances of both dismissal and suspension, students may not visit campus or participate in any campusrelated activities. An exception to this rule is if the student is seeking clarification of his or her academic record and a physical visit to campus is required. Reprimand—Written notice to student that behavior was unacceptable and that further issues could result in suspension or expulsion. Restriction—Loss of privileges including but not limited to parking on campus, access to university facilities, etc. Course Withdrawal—From the course in which the offense occurred. Grade Change—Only for cases involving academic integrity. Such a sanction must be approved by the Provost or the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Restitution—Reimbursement for physical damages or loss of property. Appeals: Grounds. An appeal does not provide a second forum in which to present the case. Appeals deal only with how a decision has been reached and not with the decision itself. The following are the exclusive grounds for all disciplinary and academic appeals: 1. 2. That the hearing officer or board failed to provide due process; That significant information has been discovered since the board or hearing, which would probably change the result, but which could not, in the exercise of due diligence, have been presented to the board or hearing. A review by the President is not considered an entitlement but is within the scope of authority of the President. This is the final appeal at the institution and if applicable, all imposed sanctions are implemented after the President issues his decision. Title IX at The Citadel Title IX of the U.S. Education Amendments of 1972 (“Title IX”) is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs and activities. The Citadel does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the education programs or activities that it operates including admissions and employment. Under Title IX, discrimination on the basis of sex can also include sexual harassment which is defined as conduct on the basis of sex that satisfies one or more of the following: 2. 3. An employee of the College conditioning the provision of education benefits on participation in unwelcome sexual conduct (i.e., quid pro quo); or Unwelcome conduct that a reasonable person would determine is so severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive that it effectively denies a person equal access to the institution’s education program or activity; or Sexual assault (as defined in the Clery Act), dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking as defined in the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Any person may report sex discrimination, including sexual harassment (whether or not the person reporting is the person alleged to be the victim of conduct that could constitute sex discrimination or sexual harassment), in person, by mail, by telephone, or by electronic mail, using the contact information listed for the Title IX Coordinator, or by any other means that results in the Title IX Coordinator receiving the person’s verbal or written report. Such a report may be made at any time (including during non-business hours) by using the telephone number, electronic mail address, or by mail to the office address listed for the Title IX Coordinator. The following person has been designated to handle inquiries related to Title IX: Valerie Mercado, Title IX Coordinator; 171 Moultrie St, Bond Hall 192, Charleston, SC, 29409; 843-953-6881; vmercado@citadel.edu. The Citadel Policy https://www.citadel.edu/root/title-ix provides information on The Citadel’s grievance procedures, including how to report or file a complaint and how The Citadel will respond. Inquiries can also be made to the Assistant Secretary.

Academic Standards All students are expected to maintain high academic standards. In addition to the grade point average requirements for satisfying degree standards, the following policies set minimum guidelines for all graduate programs. Specific programs may establish more rigorous criteria for satisfactory progress. Students should carefully study the sections of this catalog pertinent to their degree program for statements about expectations, which may exceed these minimal criteria. Any grade of “C” (ie. “C”, “C+”) is a warning that the individual is not performing at the level expected of graduate students; a grade of “F” is a clear statement of inadequate performance. Either a “C” or “F” grade calls into question the expectation of reasonable progress toward the degree. In order to maintain appropriate academic quality, the following policy applies to students enrolled at The Citadel: 1. If a student receives a grade of “F” in a graduate course, regardless of his or her status, the student will be terminated from the Citadel Graduate College. The student may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement. If the student is CGC Academic Catalog 19 �2. 3. granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for that term. If a student receives seven (7) or more credit hours of graduate course work with a grade of “C”or “C+” regardless of his or her status, the student will be terminated from the Citadel Graduate College. The student may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement in the program. If a student is granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for that term. Any student admitted to a graduate program who has earned or attempted twelve (12) hours of graduate credit must have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher to continue in the program. If a student’s GPA falls below a 3.0 any time after the completion of twelve (12) hours of graduate credit, the student must improve his/her GPA to a minimum 3.0 by the time he/she has completed nine (9) additional graduate credit hours. If the student achieves a minimum 3.0 while completing these nine (9) additional graduate credit hours, the standard of maintaining a 3.0 GPA begins again. Some programs have stricter program requirements. Check with your program advisor for the standards for your program. Generally, a student can expect to receive a decision on an appeal within 10 working days. Students are encouraged to provide a courtesy copy of grievances and appeals to the CGC for record. Catalog of Record The catalog bearing the academic year in which the student enters The Citadel will be his or her catalog of record for academic program requirements. Class Attendance Regular attendance is required of all Citadel students, and the attendance record maintained by the instructor is official. In case of absences due to illness or other circumstances beyond their control, students should notify the instructor as soon as possible. Online Course Attendance Policy Distance education (online) students are subject to The Citadel’s attendance policy. Attendance in a distance education (online) course is defined by activate participation. Logging into Canvas does not qualify as sufficient evidence of attending, as per federal financial aid guidelines, and nonattendance may affect financial aid and/or veteran’s benefits. Completion of tests, submission/completion of assignments, and participation in discussion forums are activities used to document enrollment. Students must participate throughout the semester. Any student who does not participate over any 2 week period will be administratively dropped from the roll and the last date of attendance will be determined by participation of the student in class activities. Comprehensive Examinations The Citadel graduate programs vary in their exit requirements. While all degree programs require at least a 3.0 cumulative GPA 20 (3.25 for Ed.S.) for graduation, some have an exit examination or exit project requirement. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of these standards. Confidentiality of Student Records The Citadel maintains and discloses information from student records in accordance with the provisions of the “Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974” (FERPA), as amended. This law requires that educational institutions maintain the confidentiality of student educational records. The Citadel accords its students all rights under the law. FERPA coverage applies to all educational records that contain a student’s name, social security number, or other personally identifiable information, in whatever medium, to include electronic form. No one outside of The Citadel shall have access to nor will the institution disclose any information from a student’s educational records without the written consent of the student except in compliance with the provisions of Federal and State law. Educational records may be disclosed to personnel within the institution who have a legitimate educational interest, to parents of students who are dependents as defined by IRS standards, to persons or organizations providing students financial aid, to accrediting agencies carrying out their accreditation function, to persons in compliance with a judicial order, or in an emergency, to persons in order to protect the health or safety of the student or others. Within The Citadel community, only those members, individually or collectively, acting in the student’s educational interests are allowed access to student educational records. These members include the Board of Visitors, Faculty, and personnel in the Offices of the President, Provost and Dean of the College, Associate Provost of Academic Affairs, Associate Provost of Enrollment Management, Registrar, and Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs. Directory information about a student may be disclosed at the discretion of The Citadel without the consent of the student unless the student has notified the Registrar within two weeks of the beginning of the academic year (fall semester) that the student refuses to allow the disclosure of such information. Any student desiring to keep directory information confidential must give notice at the beginning of each academic year and the notice is valid only for that year. Course Cancellation It occasionally becomes necessary to cancel a course. The Citadel reserves the right to cancel any course for which there is insufficient enrollment. This cancellation may be done without notice. Students affected by a course cancellation will receive due consideration and notification by the department offering the course. If no other satisfactory arrangements can be made, the student will receive a complete refund of all tuition and fees paid. Degree and Certification Requirements Specific requirements are detailed in the appropriate sections of the catalog. The general requirements include completing all specific program requirements and coursework while maintaining at least a “B” (3.0) GPA. Students should check the specific requirements of the program in which they are enrolled. State certification CGC Academic Catalog �requirements are determined by external agencies over which The Citadel has no control. It is the student’s responsibility to meet these requirements, which are subject to legislative change. Advisors will assist students in staying current with these requirements and adjusting programs of study to reflect any change. Earning a Second Master’s Degree The College permits a student to earn a second Citadel master’s degree in a different program as long as no more than twelve credit hours in common course requirements are applied to the second master’s degree. The Second Master’s Degree must be significantly different in subject matter. Professional Conduct Responsibility for professional conduct rests with students as adult individuals and as members of The Citadel community. CGC students are expected to conduct themselves as the responsible adults they are. All members of the campus community are expected to use reasonable judgement in all aspects of campus life and activity and to show due concern for the welfare and rights of others. Students are expected to adhere to all federal, state, and local laws. The Citadel protects freedom of action and speech, so long as the exercise of this freedom is not of an inflammatory or demeaning nature and does not interfere with the operation of the College. The Citadel’s Conduct Policy prohibits the possession of drugs, destruction of property, making false statements of emergency situations, physical or verbal abuse, or harassment of any sort. Students who violate the rules and regulations of The Citadel are subject to expulsion or lesser sanctions. These rules and regulations are published in “Regulations for Non-Cadet Students for Fall and Spring Semester And All Students, Including Cadets, for Maymester or Summer School,” which can be found online at: http://www.citadel.edu/root/images/BOV/Policies/03-provost/3107-regulations-for-non-cadets.pdf. The Provost or her designee is responsible for administering the disciplinary conduct code for CGC students unless they reside in the barracks during Maymester and Summer School, in which case the commandant is responsible for discipline. A grade of “P” indicates work of acceptable, graduate- level quality. While it signifies work of “A” or “B” level, it carries no quality points and is awarded only for designated courses such as workshops, internships, etc. F: A grade of “F” indicates that the minimum requirements have not been met. No quality points are awarded. I: A grade of “I” represents work of satisfactory quality incomplete for authorized reasons. (See section below.) W: A grade of “W” represents withdrawal from a course prior to the scheduled withdrawal deadline. No quality points are associated with the “W”, and there is no academic penalty for the student. IP: A grade of “IP” assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed after two full semesters, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” P: Grade of “I” Incomplete “I” grades must be made up during the term following the recording of the grade. A grade of “I” received in the fall term must be made up by the end of the following spring term. A grade of “I” received in either the spring or summer term must be made up by the end of the following fall term. An extension of time not to exceed one additional term may be authorized for extenuating circumstances by the appropriate dean. Grades not made up within the authorized time limit will convert to a grade of “F,” and such courses will be included in calculating the GPA. Pass-Fail Courses For certain courses, such as internships, practica, workshops, professional development courses, etc., a grade of pass or fail may be appropriate. Students taking courses of this nature need to discuss such arrangements with their advisor. Quality points will not be awarded for pass or fail work, and performance that is barely adequate (C+ or below) will not receive credit. Cumulative Grade-Point Average Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. No numerical symbol or percentage is fixed or assigned to the equivalent of any grade. A: A grade of “A” represents work of a high quality. Four quality points are awarded for each credit hour. B+: A grade of “B+” represents above average quality work. Three and one-half quality points are awarded for each credit hour. B: A grade of “B” indicates average graduate work. Three quality points are awarded for each credit hour. C+: A grade of “C+” indicates below average graduate work and is an unsatisfactory grade. Two and one-half quality points are awarded for each credit hour. C: A grade of “C” is unsatisfactory. Two quality points are awarded for each credit hour. In addition to completing all specific program requirements, in order to remain in good academic standing, The Citadel Graduate College requires students to maintain a 3.0 GPA. Failure to maintain this GPA results in dismissal from that program. Should a student be enrolled in multiple programs or certificates, a cumulative GPA is not sufficiently accurate in determining a student’s academic standing. In such cases, the standard used to determine their eligibility is the student’s GPA in that particular program, not their cumulative GPA. Graduation The Citadel Graduate College is committed to making the graduation and commencement experience a special one for its students. The following policy outlines the procedures for applying CGC Academic Catalog 21 �to graduate and participation in the annual CGC commencement ceremony. It is each student’s responsibility to apply to graduate. There are three graduation dates each calendar year. There is a May graduation date at the end of the Spring period of instruction, an August graduation date at the end of the Summer period of instruction, and a December graduation date at the end of the Fall semester period of instruction. There is one commencement ceremony each calendar year, in May, following the Spring semester. Graduation 1. Applications for graduation are available on Lesesne Gateway, via the Student Tab. Failure to apply by the deadline incurs a late fee, may delay receipt of the diploma, and may prevent the student from participating in the commencement ceremony. 2. The graduation date is the term in which the student completes all requirements. An incomplete grade is a delay in the completion of a requirement, and the posting of the final grade determines the completion of that requirement. 3. Do not select a graduation date until you plan to meet all requirements by that date as applications are processed and diplomas are ordered based on your graduation application. If the graduation date submitted is not met, a new application will be required along with applicable fee, and the diploma will need to be reordered. 4. To be recommended for a degree, students must satisfactorily complete the program requirements and non-program requirements for the degree. Students must be free from all financial indebtedness to The Citadel. 5. Students may apply for graduation and participate in commencement during the academic year in which they are completing their degree requirements. Participation in the CGC Commencement Ceremony 1. Students must indicate on their application for graduation they intend to participate in commencement ceremonies. If a student does not confirm intent, they will not be permitted to participate in the ceremony. 2. All grade-point average (GPA) requirements have been met. The cumulative grade-point averages for graduate students must be at least 3.000. 3. Graduate students must be no more than 9 credit hours short of meeting degree requirements. 4. Students must properly wear official regalia for the commencement ceremony. 5. Students who complete all coursework and degree requirements during the summer session following that year’s commencement exercises may participate in that ceremony or can decide to participate in the commencement ceremony the following year. 6. In some cases, students have completed their program requirements but are unable to participate in the commencement ceremony during the year they intended to graduate (e.g. military deployment, career relocation, or illness). In such cases, students may apply to graduate and participate in the next year’s commencement ceremony. Students exceeding this one year of eligibility will not be allowed to participate in the CGC commencement ceremony. 7. Students who have earned a second master’s degree within the same academic year will be recognized for both programs of study. 8. Children, parents, step-parents, or grandparents who are either 22 graduates of the Corps of Cadets, the Veterans Program, or The Citadel Graduate College may present diplomas to their children, parents, step-parents, grandchildren or grandparents at the CGC commencement ceremony. The graduate must provide the CGC with their full name, relationship, and graduation year before the stated deadline and for approval. Intellectual Property Policy Preamble The Citadel has among its primary purposes teaching, research, and the expansion and dissemination of knowledge. Products of these endeavors include the development and use of intellectual property. It is the policy of the College that its faculty, staff, and students carry out their scholarly work in an open and free atmosphere that encourages publication and creation of such works without constraint but consistent with applicable laws and College policy. This policy will be in accord with the guidelines and criteria published in The American Association of University Professors’ “Statement of Copyright” (Policy Documents and Reports. Ninth Edition, 2001, or subsequent editions). Intellectual Property Ownership of intellectual property will reside with the originator, whether a member of the faculty, staff, or a student, unless: (a) the property is created at the specific direction of the College; or (b) the originator has made exceptional use of College resources in creating it. At the time when the work is directed by the College or at the time when the College makes exceptional resources available to the originator of intellectual property, the Provost and the originator will together determine ownership and will negotiate a written agreement concerning that property. These determinations will be made on a case-by-case basis. Nondiscrimination Policy The Citadel is committed to providing equal opportunities to men and women students in all campus programs, including intercollegiate athletics, in order to make The Citadel the best coeducational college in America. This commitment requires that no discrimination shall occur in our admissions policies, academic programs or services, as well as employment practices on the basis of sex, race, color, religion or national origin. This policy is in accordance with Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 as amended. Inquiries concerning the application of Title IX and other nondiscrimination laws may be referred to The Citadel’s Affirmative Action Officer and Title IX Coordinator, Bond Hall, Room 369, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, South Carolina, 29409, 843-953-6989, or the Assistant Secretary of Education, Civil Rights Division, US Department of Education, Washington, DC 20201-2516. Repeating a Course Courses may be repeated only under the following circumstances: CGC Academic Catalog �• • • • • No courses may be repeated once a grade of “B” or higher has been earned. If a class in which a “C+” or “C” was earned is repeated, it may be repeated only one time. If a course is repeated, the last grade of record is used to determine whether course requirements for graduation have been met. The hours may be used only once toward graduation. All courses, previously passed or repeated, will be figured in the student’s GPA. No grade previously recorded is removed from the transcript. Satisfactory Progress and Length of Academic Program Unless otherwise stated, students are expected to complete all degree requirements within a six (6) year period from the time of registration for the first graduate course in that program. Students enrolled in the Ed.S. in School Psychology program have seven (7) years to complete the degree. Students enrolled in the MA in Psychology: Clinical Counseling degree program have a five (5) year limit. Requests for an extension must be initiated by the student to the appropriate Department Head, who is responsible for notifying the student of the decision. Department Heads will forward recommendations through the program extension form, provided by the Office of the Registrar, to their appropriate academic dean. Extension approvals must be on file in the Registrar’s Office prior to application for graduation. If an extension is granted, a probationary extension for one year is authorized. At the completion of that year, an additional extension may be authorized (if necessary) contingent upon the student having made adequate progress. “Adequate Progress” is defined as completing graduate work in two of the three semesters (summer session counting as a semester) of the year of probation. An average grade of “B” (3.0) for that year is also required. At all levels, the department or school will be responsible for oversight of student progress and initiation of action related to unsatisfactory progress. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of courses that will not meet graduation time lines for satisfactory progress. Advisors should assist students with this calculation. Student Academic Grievances The academic grievance process of the college is reserved for the most serious alleged offenses. These matters deal not with differences of opinion, but with violations of due process; denial of individual rights; or unequal treatment/ discrimination based on sex, race, color, or national origin. Students who feel that they have an academic grievance are directed first to confer with the instructor or other individual(s) involved. Where this does not result in satisfaction or if this step is not feasible, the student should present the grievance in writing to the lowest appropriate level not involved in the grievance, department head or Dean. If the student does not receive a response within a reasonable period of time, normally considered two weeks, a copy of the written grievance may be provided to the next higher academic level not previously involved in the grievance, i.e. the department head or the school Dean, with a request for assistance in resolving the grievance. A final appeal for satisfaction may be made to the Provost. The purpose of this process is to permit each level of the academic level of authority to have the opportunity to resolve the grievance satisfactorily. The Graduate College does not process academic matters. However, students are encouraged to provide a courtesy copy of grievances and appeals to the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management for record. The Associate Provost or her designee will monitor time lines and processes for compliance with procedure and will inform the appropriate level of the academic authority if procedure is not followed. Student Appeal of Final Grade A student will have three weeks from when final grades are released to begin this process. 1. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the instructor and then discusses these concerns. The instructor will respond to the student within 3 business days. If the student’s concerns are not resolved or if the instructor fails to respond within the allotted time, the student can proceed to the next step. 2. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the department head. (In the event the instructor is the department head, then the dean will play this role, and if the instructor is a dean, then the Associate Provost of Operations will play this role.) The student then meets with the department head to discuss these concerns. The department head will respond to the student within 3 business days. If the student’s concerns are not resolved or if the department head fails to respond within the allotted time, the student can proceed to the next step. 3. The student presents his/her concerns in writing to the dean. (If the student is uncertain of who the dean is, he/she should contact the Associate Provost who will direct the student appropriately.) The student then meets with the dean to discuss these concerns. If the student is not satisfied with the outcome of the discussion, the student will submit a grade appeal form and provide required material to the dean of the school within four weeks from when grades were released. Examples that can lead to a grade appeal include: a. The instructor has miscalculated a final grade. b. The instructor has violated the grading policies outlined in the syllabus. c. The instructor has violated a college or departmental policy or procedure. 4. The dean will form a grade appeal committee consisting of at least three (3) tenured or tenure-track faculty (two from the relevant academic department and one from outside the department). The dean will provide direction to the committee, including emphasizing the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of the process. 5. The dean may request materials as needed from the instructor regarding the grade appeal, including but not limited to grades, syllabus, and assignments, for the grade appeal committee. 6. The dean may request additional information from the student as needed for the grade appeal committee, as well as ask the student to craft a detailed letter about why he/she is appealing the grade. Note: The grade appeal committee does not interact with the student or instructor. Any needed materials are to be gathered and disseminated by the dean. 7. The grade appeal committee submits its recommendation to the Associate Provost. Potential recommendations that may be forwarded include, but are not limited to: CGC Academic Catalog 23 �a. Change of grade b. Late Withdrawal c. Change of grade to Pass/Fail option d. Opportunity to repeat class at no cost e. Appeal is denied 8. The Associate Provost will notify the student and instructor of the appeal decision within 15 business days of receipt of the grade appeals form. The names of the members of the grade appeal committee are not shared in the decision letter nor are they shared with the course instructor or the student. Student Responsibility The College and departments establish certain academic requirements that must be met before a degree is granted. Advisors, department heads, and Deans are available to help the student understand and arrange to meet these requirements, but the student is responsible for fulfilling them. If, at the end of a student’s course of study, the requirements for graduation have not been satisfied, the degree will not be granted. For this reason, it is important for each student to be acquainted with all academic, financial, and administrative requirements within the prescribed deadlines and time limits. of absence for up to three semesters in an academic year (including summer, which constitutes a single term). Students with an approved leave of absence need not reapply for admission to the Graduate College unless the leave extends beyond three semesters in a given academic year. In such cases, they must request to reactivate their student record for their program of study using the form available on the Registrar’s Office webpage mentioned above. A leave of absence request should normally occur prior to the drop/add date. If the student’s request is made after these deadlines, a reasonable and compelling explanation for the delay must accompany the request. In such cases, supporting documentation (e.g. medical, mental health, deployment, temporary job transfer) should be provided with the request. The decision to grant the leave of absence is at the discretion of the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Students who request a leave of absence after the drop/add date during the semester may be responsible for at least a portion of the tuition for the classes in which they are enrolled. In such cases, students should consult with the Treasurer’s Office as well as the Office of Financial Aid to determine if their time away from campus impacts their student loan eligibility. Student Services Transcript Student Success Center A transcript is a confidential document and is released only when students make a request online at www.citadel.edu/root/registrartranscripts. The transcript fee is based on the method of delivery. Transcripts can be sent electronically, mailed, or picked up in the Registrar’s Office. An official college transcript is one that is sent directly from The Citadel to the requestor. It bears the college seal, along with a date and official signature. Most colleges require the official record. The Citadel’s Student Success Center (SSC) provides a wide range of academic support services. Included among these are the enhancement of writing, mathematical, and reading skills; the general improvement of academic performance in all subject areas; and an emphasis on retention throughout The Citadel’s academic community. In addition to individual and small-group tutorials held in the Center, the staff conducts requested workshops for both graduate and undergraduate classes. Transcripts sent from other colleges to The Citadel become the property of The Citadel and cannot be issued to the student as a third party. In all of its activities, the Center strives to assure that its efforts are consistent not only with the mission statement of The Citadel, but also with the objectives of the academic departments and specific graduate programs. Although there may be an occasional exceptional situation in which it is appropriate to restrict the nature of the assistance that may be offered by the Center (e.g., because of specific program accreditation issues that might impact, say, a particular assignment), all students are encouraged to take advantage of the resources offered by the Student Success Center. Leave of Absence Policy There are many reasons why graduate students could miss courses in a given academic year. These include medical reasons, military deployment, temporary changes in job status, or other reasons. In an effort to better identify students in these situations, along with providing a mechanism that grants a respite from the time limits for degree completion, a leave of absence policy has been created. This policy also excludes students who have not enrolled in courses in a given semester. Since they will be recognized as “on leave,” these students will not be included in the list of students eligible to be contacted by Graduate College staff. The following outlines the parameters of The Citadel Graduate College’s Leave of Absence Policy. Leave Of Absence Request Students who intend to take a pause from enrolling in courses for up to three semesters in a given academic year can communicate this to the Office of the Registrar through an online web form, available at http://www.citadel.edu/registrar-forms. Students may request a leave 24 Disability Services Services for Students with Disabilities. The SSC empowers students to manage challenges and limitations that may be characteristic of their particular disabilities. Our professionally trained staff provide students with exceptional services as they transition to college or continue their studies at The Citadel. The office serves students with learning, physical, health, or psychiatric disabilities by managing the varying demands of The Citadel experience. In addition, to serving students, the staff assists The Citadel community in making programs, services, and activities accessible to everyone. The SSC provides services and CGC Academic Catalog �academic accommodations for both graduate undergraduate students with documented disabilities. Student Identification Cards and Office of Multicultural and International Student Services Students attending on-campus courses must obtain a Citadel identification card. This card is necessary for using The Citadel and area consortium libraries and accessing a number of buildings on campus. Bridging together history, tradition & cultures within the Citadel Family and around the World, the Office of Multicultural and International Student Services enhances the undergraduate experience through co-curricular programs and culturally relevant services that are meant to empower students in their identity, build community, and help a diverse group of students find their individual and collective voices. Veteran Student Success Center The Citadel’s Veteran Student Success Center provides an array of resources and support for veteran students and those still serving in the military, as well as their dependents. In addition to providing a physical space where students can gather, the center serves as an onramp to navigating and accessing military-related education benefits. Our services are intended to empower veteran and military students at every point in their academic journey, whether they are new to The Citadel, pursuing post-graduate work or seeking to enter the workforce. Class Ring All graduate students graduating from degree programs are eligible for the Class ring. Graduate students may order their ring upon completion of all but the final two semesters of coursework/ internship and must possess an overall 3.0 GPA. To place a class ring order, contact the Alumni Center at (843) 953-7698. The Alumni Center will verify eligibility. Parking Ample and secure parking is available on campus for Graduate and Undergraduate on-campus students and all oncampus summer school students.

The two programs share 24 credit hours. These courses reflect the Department’s recognition that all branches of psychology revolve around a common knowledge base with specializations being an extension beyond that base. The Department of Psychology espouses a philosophical perspective of training and practice that stresses an empirical and applied approach to addressing psychosocial problems of clients. Most faculty members are engaged in clinical practice, research efforts, or both. Faculty members’ activities are guided by a scientist-practitioner model, which emphasizes a scholarly approach to applications of psychology. The Clinical Counseling program offers graduate education at the master’s degree level for those interested in becoming professional counselors in community agencies, including college counseling centers, hospitals, mental health, and social services agencies. The program is accredited by the State Department of Education in South Carolina and the Masters in Psychology and Counseling Accreditation Council (MPCAC). Students enrolled in the Clinical Counseling program work to achieve a Master of Arts in Psychology degree by completing a total of 60 credit hours. The program includes 30 credit hours of core courses, 10 hours of advanced courses, 3 credit hours in addictions coursework, 5 credit hours in career counseling, 9 hours of fieldwork, and 3 hours of electives. Fieldwork is completed in agencies throughout the tri-county area and involves a 100-hour practicum and 600-hour internship. Students completing the Clinical Counseling program meet the educational requirements for licensure as Professional Counselors and may for licensure as an Addictions Counselor in South Carolina. The School Psychology program is built around the model of the data-based problem-solver at the individual, organizational, and systems levels in schools, with an emphasis on the efficacy of outcomes for clients served. The program involves 75-semester hours of credit, and it leads to the Education Specialist (Ed.S.) degree and certification as a “School Psychologist II” in South Carolina and National Certification as a School Psychologist. The School Psychology program is fully accredited by the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP). Students can apply for the award of a Master of Arts in Psychology degree after completing 39 semester hours from the School Psychology Program of Studies and receiving the approval of the Director of the School Psychology program and the Head of the Department of Psychology. PSYC-599, Thesis, MUST be completed as part of those 39 hours.

CGC Academic Catalog 73 �ZUCKER FAMILY SCHOOL OF EDUCATION MASTER OF ARTS IN TEACHING • SECONDARY • MIDDLE GRADES • PHYSICAL EDUCATION MASTER OF EDUCATION • COUNSELOR EDUCATION • EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP • HIGHER EDUCATION • INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN • INTERDISCIPLINARY STEM EDUCATION • LITERACY EDUCATION SPECIALIST IN EDUCATION • EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP 74 CGC Academic Catalog �ZUCKER FAMILY SCHOOL OF EDUCATION Graduate Programs The purpose of the graduate programs of the Zucker Family School of Education is to serve the people of the Lowcountry, the state of South Carolina, and the Southeast by providing high quality programs in the areas of professional education and school counseling. The School offers programs to prepare school teachers, school counselors, literacy teachers, literacy coaches, and educational administrators. The Citadel has been involved in the preparation of teachers since the creation of the School of Education and Psychology in 1929. In 1954, the School of Education was approved as a separate department. Master’s degree programs for teachers and Master’s degree programs for prospective counselors were authorized in 1968. Master’s degree programs for school administrators were authorized in 1970. The Educational Specialist degree in educational administration was approved in 1975, and the Educational Specialist degree in School Psychology was approved in 1980. Prior to 1974, the South Carolina State Department of Education (SCDE) approved The Citadel’s Educator Preparation programs. In 1974, all professional education programs offered by The Citadel were initially accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). Both state-approved program status and national accreditation have been continuous since they were initially granted. The most recent SCDE, Commission on Higher Education (CHE), and NCATE/CAEP program reviews, conducted in the spring of 2013, resulted in continuing program accreditation approval. The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) granted accreditation in July 2005 to the School Counseling Programs which offers a Master of Education in Counselor Education. Statement of Philosophy The philosophy of the Zucker Family School of Education at The Citadel is based on five fundamental propositions. These propositions serve to orient the mission and conceptual base of the School, guide the actions and value system of the faculty, shape the curricula of the various programs, and provide to its faculty their sense of purpose and meaning for teaching, scholarship, and professional service. These five propositions are: 1. The faculty is committed to promoting education for all individuals to the fullest extent possible. With the implementation of appropriate teaching and assessment strategies, a fundamental guiding belief is that all students, though having unique learning styles and experiences, are capable of learning. 2. It is the educator’s responsibility, with the aid of appropriate resources and support, to establish a mutually respectful environment where effective learning occurs for all students. 3. Education is a systematic effort to facilitate the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values necessary for the student to function in a diverse society. 4. The faculty is committed to upholding the highest professional standards in all situations in which they model these standards to students through their teaching, research, and service endeavors. 5. The faculty is committed to an open interchange of ideas wherein the perspectives of all are valued. The School’s Conceptual Model The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit prepares principled educational leaders to be knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals. Candidates completing our programs are committed to ensuring that all students succeed in a learner- centered environment. Rationale: • Society is in need of principled educational professionals committed to ensuring all students learn; • All children and young adults require high quality educational experiences that enable them to compete and prosper in the global economy; and • Such high quality educational experiences require a transformed educational system focused on fostering twenty– first century knowledge and skills in all children and young adults. The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit is committed to the simultaneous transformation of the preparation of educational leaders and of the places where they work. Specifically, The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit seeks to develop principled educational leaders who: • Have mastered their subject matter and are skilled in using it to foster student learning; • Know the self who educates (Parker J. Palmer) and integrate this self-knowledge with content knowledge, knowledge of students, and in the context of becoming professional change agents committed to using this knowledge and skill to ensure that all students succeed in a learner-centered environment; and • Exemplify the highest ethical standards by modeling respect for all human beings and valuing diversity as an essential component of an effective learner-centered environment. Through our initial program for teacher candidates for P-12 schools and our advanced programs for professional educators in P-20 schools, The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit shapes cadets and graduate students into principled educational leaders capable of and committed to transforming our schools into learning communities where all succeed. The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit has identified 15 performance indicators for candidates to demonstrate that they are principled educational leaders who are knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals: CGC Academic Catalog 75 �Knowledgeable Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Have mastered the subject matter of their field of professional study and practice; 2. Utilize the knowledge gained from developmental and learning theories to establish and implement an educational program that is varied, creative, and nurturing; 3. Model instructional and leadership theories of best practice; 4. Integrate appropriate technology to enhance learning; 5. Demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning; Reflective Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Develop and describe their philosophy of education and reflect upon its impact in the teaching and learning environment; 2. Develop and manage meaningful educational experiences that address the needs of all learners with respect for their individual and cultural experiences; 3. Construct, foster, and maintain a learner-centered environment in which all learners contribute and are actively engaged; 4. Apply their understanding of both context and research to plan, structure, facilitate, and monitor effective teaching and learning in the context of continual assessment; and 5. Reexamine their practice by reflectively and critically asking questions and seeking answers. Ethical Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Demonstrate commitment to a safe, supportive, learning environment; 2. Embrace and adhere to appropriate professional codes of ethics; 3. Value diversity and exhibit a caring, fair, and respectful attitude and respect toward all cultures; 4. Establish rapport with students, families, colleagues, and communities; 5. Meet obligations on time, dress professionally, and use language appropriately. The School’s Website The Zucker Family School of Education has a diverse faculty with a wide array of teaching and research interests. Additional information on these interests, as well as other departmental highlights, initiatives, and activities, can be viewed online: www.citadel.edu/education. Admission Test Policy Admission tests are required for all M.A.T. and Counselor Education degree programs. The minimum acceptable score for admission for degree programs is a score of 396 on the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) or 290 (combined score on verbal and quantitative sections) on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). Provisional Status – Applicants for all M.A.T. and Counselor Education degree programs who score between 380 and 395 on the MAT or between 283 and 289 on the GRE may apply for provisional status. A student accepted provisionally will have completed all admission requirements and will have been reviewed by the respective department.

An applicant must request the waiver in writing at the time of application from the appropriate academic program director. The Professional Education Board LiveText Account To facilitate the college-wide mission of preparing principled leaders for professional education, The Citadel established the Professional Education Board (PEB). The Citadel PEB’s primary focus is to foster academic environments that promote the development of principled leaders for the education profession and to facilitate the continuing improvement of professional education programs across the institution. In pursuing these goals, the PEB will concentrate on communication, assessment, and governance issues. The Citadel’s Dean of the Zucker Family School of Education chairs the Board, which is comprised of representatives from all of The Citadel’s professional education constituencies, including faculty, staff, students, and our P-12 colleagues. PEB members are appointed by the Dean of the School of Education in collaboration with the Deans of Humanities and Social Science, of Science and Mathematics, and of The Citadel Graduate College. Beginning in September 2006, the Professional Education Board meets monthly during each academic year. Zucker Family School of Education degree-seeking students (and those approved for certification only in counseling or educational leadership programs) must purchase a LiveText account at The Citadel’s Bookstore. LiveText makes it possible for education students to have secure access to their portfolios and other important materials. Through LiveText, faculty members and administrators collect data, generate reports from the data, and use this information to make informed program and unit decisions. 76 Appeals Process Education students who have extenuating circumstances may request to appeal policies by writing to the School’s Admission, Retention, and Certification committees. Appeal letters should be addressed to the Dean of the School, who will direct it to either the Initial Programs Committee or the Advanced CGC Academic Catalog �Programs Committee for recommendation. The committees’ recommendations regarding appeals will be forwarded to the Dean of the School who will review and work with the Provost and/or her designee for final action. Transfer Credit No more than 12 hours may be transferred from other accredited colleges or universities (e.g. Southern Association of Colleges, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, etc.). Only graduate credit hours in which grades of “B” or higher have been earned are transferable. Some programs allow fewer hours of transfer credit.

PSCI-574—Global Issues Three Credit Hours The course will review the new context for state interaction and global order. The most significant question is whether the international community can weather the storm of new challenges and threats without a central gatekeeper, such as the United States. Globalization has also given other states (established and newly emerging powers) opportunities to exploit the inability of the United States to foment a new architecture of stability and order. Follower states have found opportunities (many derived from the expanding and deepening global trading system) to undermine American dominance. Also, some states have moved to establish regional political and security alliances that not only speak to their needs (counter-terrorism, immigration, and natural resource exploitation, for example) but also dilute the “traditional” influence of the United States in these matters. At the same time, there has been a proliferation of “non-state actors” who are able to capitalize on the measurable weakening of national authority and the hesitancy of nation-states to coherently identify, define, and deal with the new challenges. Students will review the impact of global issues from two perspectives: (1) challenges and (2) opportunities within the framework that the traditional role of states as “gatekeepers,” buffering and processing challenges to stability and order has been gradually been transformed. Throughout the course, student groups will take up several issues and proceed to analyze whether international institutions such as the United Nations, and regional and functional non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are in fact dysfunctional when confronted with the challenges of globalization. Student groups will also address the question of whether the Cold War origins and patterning of these NGOs are obstacles to the development of flexible and creative strategies. Finally, although it might be fairly argued that the traditionally conceived state’s influence and role has been diminished, it can also be proposed that the state system will not wither away quietly, and that states will engage in behavior necessary to protect and grow their influence—newly emerging states may resist the influence of older states, but the former seeks similar symbols of power and behave in ways to enhance their own economic and political power on the world stage. Students will be required to complete a comprehensive final exam and to submit a research paper that may be derived from one or more of the paradoxes and contradictions described above. CGC Academic Catalog �Students with relevant experiences in the private sector, government, military, or non-governmental organizations may, with the permission of the instructor use such experiences to shape their research paradigms.

A Citadel student “will not lie, cheat or steal, nor tolerate those who do.” The commitment to honor extends beyond the gates of The Citadel and is a life-long obligation to moral and ethical behavior. In addition, honor includes integrity; “doing the right thing when no one is watching.” Finally, honorable behavior includes exercising the moral courage to “do the right thing when everyone is watching.” The Honor Code is the foundation of our academic enterprise. Duty: First and foremost duty means to accept and accomplish the responsibilities assigned to me. At The Citadel, my primary duty is to perform academically and then to perform as a member of The Citadel and the campus community. I accept the consequences associated with my performance and actions. Once I have held myself accountable for my actions, then I will hold others accountable for their actions. Finally, duty means that others can depend on me to complete my assignments and to assist them with their assignments. Duty is also a call to serve others before self. Respect: First and foremost respect means to treat other people with dignity and worth – the way you want others to treat you. Respect for others eliminates any form of prejudice, discrimination, or harassment (including but not limited to rank, position, age, race, color, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, physical attributes, etc.). In addition, respect for others means to respect the positions of those in authority which include faculty, staff, administrators, active duty personnel, and the leadership of The Citadel. Finally, respect includes a healthy respect for one’s self. Mission As a higher education institution, The Citadel’s mission is to educate and develop our students to become principled leaders in all walks of life by instilling the core values of The Citadel in a disciplined and intellectually challenging environment. A unique feature of this environment for the South Carolina Corps of Cadets is the sense of camaraderie produced through teamwork and service to others while following a military lifestyle. The Citadel strives to produce graduates who have insight into issues, ideas, and values that are of importance to society. It is equally important that Citadel graduates are capable of both critical and creative thinking, have effective communication skills, can apply abstract concepts to concrete situations, and possess the methodological skills needed to gather and analyze information. Throughout its history, The Citadel’s primary purpose has been to educate undergraduates as members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets and to prepare them for post-graduate positions of leadership through academic programs of recognized excellence supported by the best features of a military environment. The cadet lifestyle provides a structured environment that supports growth and development of each student’s intellect, discipline, physical fitness, and moral and ethical values. The four pillars which define The Citadel experience for cadets consist of these four developmental dimensions. A complementary purpose of The Citadel, realized through The Citadel Graduate College, is to provide the citizens of the Lowcountry and the State of South Carolina opportunities for professional development by offering a broad range of educational programs of recognized excellence at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. These programs are designed to accommodate the needs of non-traditional students seeking traditional and demanding academic challenges. Institutional Characteristics. The Citadel is a coeducational, comprehensive, public, four-year institution whose primary undergraduate student body consists of approximately 2400 members of the Corps of Cadets, all of whom reside on campus. The primary service area for these students is regional, with approximately half of each freshman class coming from South Carolina. The Citadel, however, does draw undergraduate students from all parts of the United States and many foreign countries. The college offers a wide range of baccalaureate degree programs (Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, and Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering) in the humanities, social and natural sciences, business administration, engineering, and education. These academic programs prepare graduates of the Corps of Cadets for a variety of careers; about half of these graduates enter business and the professions, a third or more enter the military and government service, and the remainder go directly into graduate and professional study. Many graduates choose to pursue professional or graduate degrees later in their careers. Through its undergraduate and graduate programs, The Citadel Graduate College serves a degree-seeking population of approximately 1,300. The primary service area is the South Carolina Lowcountry. The Citadel Graduate College offers eleven baccalaureate degree programs (Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Construction Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Bachelor of Science in Tactical Strength and Conditioning, Bachelor of Arts in Social Studies Education, Bachelor of Arts in Intelligence and Security Studies, Bachelor of Arts in Political Science, and Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice), seven graduate degree programs (Master of Arts, Master of Science, Master of Arts in Education, Master of Arts in Teaching, Master of Education, Master of Business Administration, and Specialist in Education) and several graduate certificate programs. Meeting the needs of the South Carolina Lowcountry in terms of instruction, public service, and research, including such initiatives as cooperative programs with other educational institutions, is an important part of The Citadel’s mission. Together, the Corps of Cadets and The Citadel Graduate College enroll approximately 3,600 students, about three-fourths of whom come from South Carolina. In its educational programs, The Citadel acknowledges and endorses the teacher-scholar ideal, recognizing that the excellence of all of its academic programs is dependent upon the quality of its faculty. This ideal manifests through teaching and lecturing, researching, writing, publishing, and public service. The Citadel’s faculty also address audiences beyond the college by sharing their knowledge with other scholars and with the public. The Citadel Graduate College’s Mission/Purpose CGC Academic Catalog 7 �An important component of a positive educational experience for students involves an intentional effort to meet their needs and offer service that underscores The Citadel’s commitment to principled leadership. • Service: Creating a culture that values service, fosters mutual respect, and makes the student’s needs the most important priority; implementing new technologies that enhance our services; and providing timely, efficient, and accurate information to all requests.

Every effort is made to provide information in the catalog that is accurate at the time the catalog is prepared. However, information on regulations, policies, fees, curricula, courses, and other matters is subject to change at any time during the period for which the catalog is in effect. Application and Admissions Each program of study shall be governed by the program requirements in effect on the date of enrollment. If a student withdraws from the college or fails to maintain enrollment for one year and subsequently returns, the requirements in effect at the time of return will prevail. Any exception to policies in this catalog, purported to have been made verbally to a student by an official of the college, are null and void unless documented with a signed statement from the college official authorized to make the exception. This catalog is not an unchangeable contract but an announcement of the current policies. Implicit in each student’s matriculation at The Citadel is an unwritten agreement to comply with the institution’s rules and regulations, which The Citadel may modify to ensure the quality of its academic programs. When graduation requirements are changed, every effort will be made to insure that the new requirements can be met by the student’s original expected graduation date. Nonetheless, each student is expected to read and be aware of the policies and procedures contained in the catalog in order to assure that admissions, registration, and graduation procedures are being followed. The college cannot assume responsibility for a student who does not comply with policy or procedure. The Citadel Graduate College seeks to enroll students whose motivation and educational backgrounds demonstrate a strong potential for success in the academic program of their choice. Specific entrance requirements are detailed in the degree program sections of this catalog. The application process at The Citadel Graduate College (CGC) is a two-part process. The applicant must be accepted into the program to which they seek a degree and must be accepted into the Citadel by the Citadel Graduate College. The Application consists of the following: 1. Completion of the online graduate application along with the non-refundable application fee; 2. Official transcripts from the undergraduate institution conferring the applicant’s bachelor degree and transcripts from all postgraduate institutions attended. 3. Other supplemental items, which may include official test scores (GMAT, GRE or MAT- see program requirements for acceptable test and test scores), as required by the program. 4. An official TOEFL score if English is not the native language. The minimum acceptable score of 550 paper-based, 213 computer-based, or 79 internet-based; *Applicants may be exempted from the TOEFL requirement if the applicant has a minimum of 2 years of course study, with a 3.0 or higher GPA, from an institution accredited by a regional accrediting association in the United States, or the international equivalent from a university of recognized standing in a country in which all instruction is provided in English. Therefore, applicants with completed coursework from the U.S., Australia, Canada (except Quebec), New Zealand, Singapore, and the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales) may be eligible for an exemption. All exemption requests must be made in writing to The Citadel Graduate College and be accompanied by the domestic transcripts showing the minimum requirements for a waiver have been met. Other exceptions may be considered on a case by case basis with written justification and supporting documentation submitted to The CGC for review. 5. Additional documentation as required by individual programs. The applicant can log into the Citadel’s application portal to view a list of required supplemental items at any time. The requirements for acceptance into specific programs and degrees are described in this catalog for each program. If accepted, official copies of all admissions documents must be sent directly to the CGC office, and admission test scores (if required) must be submitted directly from the testing organization and current within five years of application. Full acceptance is not granted until both the program and CGC requirements are met. After acceptance by the CGC, any non- U.S. citizen must complete the application for an F-1 Visa through the 10 CGC Academic Catalog �International Office. Applicants must not have a record of conviction of a criminal offense showing poor moral character. Upon acceptance, a letter is sent to the student identifying their faculty advisor. Students are encouraged to schedule an appointment for advising. While each program has its own set of admissions requirements, ultimate authority to admit a student rests with the provost or her designee. Normally departments and programs have the authority to determine admissions criteria and the provost intervenes only in unusual or extraordinary circumstances. However, the decision by the provost as the chief academic officer for the college is final. Legal Presence and Residency The State of South Carolina requires all state colleges and universities to verify each student’s legal presence in the United States. Prior to starting classes, each student is required to submit a photocopy of a valid South Carolina Driver’s License, birth certificate, or valid U.S. passport. Joint Degree Programs The Citadel participates in joint graduate degree and certificate programs with the College of Charleston in Computer Science, English, and History. Students routinely take courses at both institutions. Citadel students will register for all their Computer Science, English, and History at The Citadel, even when a particular course may be offered at the College of Charleston. Students who have declared a home institution must complete at least 33% of their coursework at that institution. Veteran’s Status as a Student on The Citadel Campus The Citadel welcomes active duty, veterans, and their families to become part of our educational community. Only active duty and veterans with honorable discharges may enroll in class with The Citadel cadet population held during the day. Veteran Day Student: Veterans who provide evidence with a DD-214 (honorable discharge – for every discharge if serving multiple times) from the Armed Services Branch(s) indicating a minimum of 90 consecutive days of full-time federal active service, other than active duty for training, may enroll in day undergraduate classes with the Cadets. These veterans are civilians and are not subject to the personal requirements specific to the Corps of Cadets. Admission and Student Categories Graduate students may be admitted to CGC in one of the below categories. Degree seeking - A graduate student is classified as degree seeking if they hold a bachelor’s degree or an advanced degree, all admission requirements are met and the student has been admitted to a degree program. Non-degree seeking - A graduate student is classified as nondegree seeking if they hold a bachelor’s degree or an advanced degree but who, at the time of the application, does not plan to pursue a degree. This category authorizes the student to take no more than 8 hours total. Enrolling in courses does not imply admission to a degree program. Persons admitted to the non-degree student status who later wish to become degree seeking must file an application for the desired program and comply with the requirements stated above. Senior Citizens - South Carolina Senior citizens, those who are age 60 and over and legal residents of the state, who wish to take courses at The Citadel Graduate College are eligible to enroll as a degree-seeking or non-degree seeking student on a space available basis. If a student wishes to pursue a degree, they must submit an application for the program of study and follow the appropriate admissions protocol. Up to 8 credit hours taken as a non-degree seeking student may be transferred into the program. Proof of age (SC Driver’s License) is required at the time of application. Registration for classes as a senior citizen is allowed on a space available basis—the timeline for registration is the Monday prior to the start of each semester. Additionally, permission from the instructor may be needed to take a course as a non-degree student. Students are encouraged to request this permission ahead of time and forward the approval in writing to the Registrar’s Office at registrar@citadel.edu.

Provisional Status - Applicants who do not meet the minimum GPA and/or test score required by their program’s admission criteria may be allowed to pursue coursework as a provisionally admitted student. The purpose of the provisional status is to monitor and support the students’ academic success. Provisional status requires meeting specific academic standards in coursework. Refer to the degree program for provisional requirements. Undergraduate Students Taking Graduate Courses Academic seniors with a cumulative Grade Point Average of at least a 3.20 may take up to a maximum of twelve hours of graduate courses through The Citadel Graduate College once they have reached senior status. No undergraduate student may take more than six credit hours of graduate credit in any one term (Fall, Spring, Summer). These courses may provide students a head start on earning a graduate certificate or a graduate degree, but graduate courses may not be used to meet undergraduate degree requirements unless the student is formally admitted to an accelerated program and will NEVER be used in the computation of the undergraduate GPA. Students must have the permission of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Undergraduate students accepted in an accelerated program at The Citadel may take and share up to twelve hours of structured graduate credit CGC Academic Catalog 11 �between the graduate and undergraduate majors. Refer to specific accelerated program requirements for total hours permitted to share. Admission Test For any graduate programs that require submission of an official admissions test score, the test must be current within five years of the application. See the appropriate program for the type of test(s) required. Applicants for some graduate programs in The Citadel Graduate College who possess a master’s or doctorate degree from an accredited institution may be eligible to waive the requirement to supply an admissions test score. The applicant must send the written waiver request and transcript showing a conferred Master’s or higher degree, directly to the Graduate College. Registration Registration is conducted online through Lesesne Gateway. Students may not attend class until they are fully registered and listed on the class roster. Completed registrations will be honored on a first-come, first- served basis. Registration is not completed until all fees are paid. All fees are due by published calendar dates. Knowingly attending class without paying is an integrity violation and will result in dismissal from the college. Any changes in registration must be made prior to the end of the term’s Drop/Add period. Information concerning class times and important registration dates can be found for each academic term online at: http://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-courses.

A student may not pursue more than 8 credit hours of coursework for a program to which they have not been formally accepted. accompany the withdrawal form. Late withdrawal requests will be approved on a case-by-case basis by both the academic dean and the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management. Advisement and the Planned Program Upon acceptance into a degree program, a student is assigned an advisor. It is the student’s responsibility to confer with this advisor at an early date and at periodic intervals to assure appropriate course selection and awareness of degree requirements. Degree candidates in some programs must file an official program of study. This program of study will be developed in consultation with the student’s advisor and approved by the appropriate Dean or Department Head. This program of study is filed in the Registrar’s Office and will be used in the degree audit process. It is a joint responsibility of the advisor and student to maintain the program of study in a current state. Modifications in a program of study can be accomplished with the written approval of the appropriate Dean or Department Head. Students who wish to select a new degree program must file an application and fee, meet all admission requirements of the new degree program, and be accepted into the new degree program before registration in the new program should occur. Completion of coursework for a program in which a student has not been formally accepted does not imply admission into that program. A student should pursue no more than 8 credit hours of coursework for a program to which they have not been formally accepted. Audit Policy A student may elect to audit a course for no credit. Permission to audit must be obtained from the school/department offering the course and a form must be submitted. Students must possess an undergraduate degree from an accredited college or university to audit a graduate level course. Students cannot switch from credit to audit status, or vice versa, after two class meetings. Auditors must apply and be accepted as a non-degree seeking student and are permitted to register for a class on a “space available” basis. The audit tuition is the same as the regular credit hour tuition. Drop/Add and Withdrawals Course Load Formal notice of intent to drop or withdraw from any class is necessary in all cases. The dates for dropping and withdrawing are listed in the term calendar at: http://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-important-dates. To drop or add a course from the course schedule or to change sections within a course, a student must drop/add through Lesesne Gateway. Approval to drop a course and receive a refund after the published drop date is granted only under extenuating circumstances (i.e. death in immediate family, serious medical issues, military deployment). After the drop period, students who choose to withdraw must complete a withdrawal form available in the Registrar’s Office or online. Course withdrawal means a student is withdrawing from a course after the drop/add date has passed. A grade of “W” will appear on the student transcript. The “W” does not affect the student’s grade point average (GPA). Ceasing to attend a course does not constitute an official drop or withdrawal from the course. Any withdrawal request that occurs after the published withdrawal date must have a written justification for the late request to 12 Graduate students are considered full-time if they carry nine (9) credit hours accumulated over any combination of courses during a full semester. The maximum credit any graduate student may carry is 17 credits per full semester (Fall, Spring, or Summer). For students enrolled in one mini term per semester, 4.5 credit hours will be considered full-time for the mini term. The semester hour load for students wishing to be classified as part-time is 4.5 credit hours during a full semester. Students holding Citadel graduate assistantships will be considered as full time if they are taking at least six (6) semester hours. Students enrolled in any combination of summer sessions may not exceed a maximum of five courses (15 credit hours, but 17 credit hours including lab courses). In addition, the maximum load allowed in an individual summer term is 7 credit hours (Full Summer, Summer I, Summer II, Mini term A, Mini Term B). CGC Academic Catalog �Summer School or her program at The Citadel. The Citadel’s Summer School is a component of the CGC which has the responsibility for the coordination and administration of all aspects of The Citadel’s graduate and undergraduate summer school programs. All Summer School students are ultimately the academic and administrative responsibility of the Provost. Students residing in the barracks, regardless of academic status are the disciplinary responsibility of the commandant; all other students who are not members of the corps of cadets remain as stated above. Undergraduate transient admission to Summer School does not constitute admission to the regular academic session of The Citadel. Transient Students When cadets enroll in summer courses or graduate courses, they are required to adhere to the rules and policies outlined in the honor code regarding behavior, class performance, and academic standards. Course Substitution To be transferred, credit hours must have been earned within six years of the date of admission to The Citadel. Students who desire to take a course at another institution for transfer while enrolled in CGC must obtain prior approval from their department head. Acceptance of transfer credits within the foregoing rules is the prerogative of the academic department or school. Ordinarily, course work accepted for transfer must parallel course work available at The Citadel. However, where the head of the major department or Dean of the school feels that graduate course work not equivalent to courses at The Citadel will enhance the program, up to six semester hours of such credit may be acceptable. These will be part of the maximum allowable transfer hours for that program. Graduate students applying for transfer credit will use the “Transfer Credit for Graduate Programs” form located online at http://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-forms. Submit the form to the Registrar’s Office through the student’s advisor and department head with a copy of the course description from the catalog of the originating institution and the course syllabus. An official copy of the transcript for the institution where the credit was earned must be on file with the Graduate College. Course substitutions in degree programs can only be authorized by the approval of the Head of the Department and Dean of the School. Forms to initiate this procedure are available in the Registrar’s Office or online. English Fluency Policy In accordance with the laws of South Carolina, The Citadel ensures the English fluency of its teaching faculty. Should a student challenge the English fluency of a member of the faculty, standard procedures for student academic grievances will be followed. If a review committee is called for, the native language of one of the faculty members will not be English. Readmission Policy In exceptional and extraordinary circumstances, a graduate student can petition their academic school dean for reinstatement through a letter of appeal, but the granting of such appeals would be considered unusual and rare. Transfer Credit The Citadel Graduate College does permit up to 12 hours of transfer credit from other accredited higher education institutions and from military education and training recommended for credit by the American Council on Education. No more than 12 hours may be transferred from other accredited colleges or universities (e.g. Southern Association of Colleges, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, etc.). Exceptions may be granted by the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Only graduate credit hours in which grades of “B” or higher have been earned are transferable. Some programs allow fewer hours of transfer credit. Students should check the requirements for specific programs for the maximum number of credit hours that may be transferred into his CGC Academic Catalog 13 �Expenses & Financial Aid Fee Payment The Citadel Treasurer’s Office is responsible for the collection of monies due to The Citadel. All fees are due and payable at the time of registration. If fees are not paid by the date on the term calendar, the student may be dropped from registered classes. Checks should be made payable to The Citadel and mailed to 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, SC 29409. Fees may also be paid online with Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express. Electronic check payments are available at no charge. Deferred payment plans may be arranged in advance of a semester through the Citadel Tuition Payment Plan. Forms are available on the Treasurer’s webpage at www.citadel.edu/treasurer. The Citadel reserves the right to adjust fees at any time to meet the current cost of operation. Fee schedules are published each semester on The Citadel’s web page. All correspondence concerning fees, payments, and status of accounts should be directed to the Treasurer’s office. Financial Aid and Scholarships The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships administers student loan applications, grants, scholarships, and work-study programs. The office is located in Bond Hall, Room 138, and staff can be reached at (843) 953-5187 or by email at financial_aid@citadel. edu. Forms and Deadlines To apply for financial aid at The Citadel, all students should file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at fafsa. ed.gov as soon as possible after October 1 each year. Additional information may be requested by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships. Students are responsible for checking their Lesesne Gateway accounts, completing all requested paperwork, and meeting financial aid requirements in a timely manner. Funds are limited, so late applications are considered for aid only if resources are still available. FAFSA Priority Deadline Dates Academic year (fall and spring) October 31 Fall only October 31 Spring only October 1 Summer April 1 Applicants who have not completed all financial aid paperwork by June 30 should not expect to receive notification of awards prior to the beginning of fall semester. These applicants should be prepared to pay for their tuition, fees, and other costs by established fee payment deadlines. Students are reimbursed if subsequently determined to be eligible for financial aid. 14 Determining Financial Need The amount of financial aid is based on the FAFSA form the applicant files after October 1 each year. This form solicits information about the family’s current financial situation and produces an “expected family contribution” (EFC). Adjusted gross income data from tax forms are used, along with current asset information to determine family resources. Allowances are made for federal and state taxes, social security, employment (when both parents work), unusual medical and dental expenses, and family size. Other factors considered include any unusual expenses and the number of family members in college. In its simplest definition, financial need is the difference between what a student will pay to attend college and the expected family contribution, as determined by the need analysis. If costs exceed the amount of family contribution, then the applicant has “demonstrated” financial need. Dependent or Independent Status Federal student aid programs are based on the premise that parents have the primary responsibility of financing their children’s education. However, independent students are not required to submit parental data. Students who fall into at least one of the following categories are considered independent: • He/she is at least 24 years old by Dec 31 of the academic year. • He/she is a graduate student. • He/she is married. • He/she is currently serving on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces for purposes other than training. • He/she is a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces. • He/she has children (or other dependents) and will provide more than half of their support. • He/she was in foster care or deemed a dependent or ward of the court. • He/she was an emancipated minor or in legal guardianship as determined by a court. • He/she is determined to be an unaccompanied youth who is homeless or self-supporting and at risk of being homeless. Federal Eligibility Requirements Any student who is accepted for admission is eligible to request financial assistance. However, there are several general eligibility requirements a student must meet to receive federal financial aid: 1. A student must be admitted to The Citadel as a regular or provisional student. 2. A student must be a U.S. citizen, or a national or permanent resident. 3. A student may not receive aid if he or she is in default at any institution on any Federal Student Loan Program. 4. Students must be enrolled at least half-time. This is defined as 4.5 hours/semester for graduate students and six (6) hours/semester for undergraduate students. The only exception to this rule will be internships and practicums, which, given their somewhat unique composition and requirements, qualify a student for half-time status. This definition of half-time status is important to be eligible for financial aid and to qualify for in-school deferment on prior federal student loans. CGC Academic Catalog �5. 6. 7. A student may not receive aid if he or she owes a repayment at any institution on a Pell Grant, Supplemental Grant, or State Student Incentive Grant. A student must have the minimum grade point average and must make satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward a degree to continue to receive federal financial aid. A graduate certificate student is not eligible for federal financial aid. Types of Financial Aid Please visit http://www.citadel.edu/finaid for detailed information about the various financial aid programs offered. Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) for Financial Aid Recipients In compliance with regulations governing federal and/or state financial aid programs, The Citadel is required to monitor each student to be certain that he or she is maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in his or her course of study. SAP standards are separate from The Citadel’s academic policies and are reviewed annually at the end of each spring semester. How the Policy Works Students who fail to meet published SAP standards will be ineligible to receive federal or state financial aid funds. However, those students failing to meet the minimum standards, as prescribed in this policy, may appeal their status by following outlined conditions. Academic Year The academic year for SAP determination is comprised of the fall, spring, and summer terms. Minimum Standards Unsatisfactory academic progress is defined as a failure to meet at least one of the following standards: Undergraduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 12 hours/ semester) must earn 24 credits hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 12 hours. b. Part-time students (enrolled in less than 12 hours/ semester) must earn at least 66% of credit hours attempted in an academic year. 2. GPA – A student’s GPA must meet the required minimum for their grade level according to The Citadel’s academic policies for continuance. a. 1.3 with < 39 attempted hours b. 1.5 with 40 – 69 attempted hours c. 1.7 with 70 – 99 attempted hours d. 2.0 with > 99 attempted hours 3. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 207 hours (more than 150% of program length). Graduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 9 hours/semester) 2. 3. must earn 18 credit hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 9 hours. b. Part-time students (enrolled in 4.5 hours/semester) must earn at least 66% of credit hours attempted in an academic year. GPA – A student must earn at least a 3.0 grade point average. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 150% of the student’s program length. SAP Appeal Students who have not met SAP have the opportunity to complete an appeal to regain eligibility for federal aid. Completion of this process does not guarantee reinstatement of federal financial aid. Students are responsible for full payment of tuition/fees regardless of financial aid status. It is also the student’s responsibility to be aware of and to meet all fee payment and financial aid deadlines. The SAP Appeal form is available on the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarship’s webpage on The Citadel website at citadel.edu. The SAP Appeal must include: 1. A completed SAP Appeal Form and Academic Improvement Plan approved by Academic Affairs and signed by both the advisor and the student, and 2. A letter written by the student that defines why the student failed to make SAP and what has changed that enables the student to meet SAP at the next evaluation. If a student fails to either regain regular SAP eligibility after one semester or meet the conditions of the Academic Improvement Plan, the student is ineligible to receive federal financial aid (Title IV aid). Appeal Deadlines Completed appeal forms must be turned in two weeks before the end of the term for which the appeal is filed. Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: “A” Superior “B” Very Good “C” Satisfactory; Acceptable “D” Marginal; Passing “F” Unsatisfactory “P” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that do not carry credit hours to designate passing performance “S” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that carry credit hours to designate that a grade of “A”, “B” or “C” has been earned and credit has been awarded “U” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses and in ENGL 101 to designate that a grade of “D” or “F” has been earned and no credit has been awarded “W” Withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline “I” An Incomplete is awarded when course requirements have been very nearly met but for authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. “IP” Grade assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed after two full semesters, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by CGC Academic Catalog 15 �the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Students who are enrolled in audit courses will not receive financial aid for these courses. Students can access midterm progress and semester grade reports online by using BANNER Self-Service through the Lesesne Gateway portal. Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA/Grade Replacement The regulatory definition for full-time enrollment status (for undergraduates) has been revised to allow a student to retake (one time only per previously passed course) any previously passed course. For this purpose, passed means any grade higher than an “F,” regardless of any school or program policy requiring a higher qualitative grade or measure to have been considered to have passed the course. This retaken class may be counted towards a student’s enrollment status, and the student may be awarded Title IV aid for the enrollment status based on inclusion of the class. A student may be repeatedly paid for repeatedly failing the same course (normal SAP policy still applies to such cases), and if a student withdraws before completing the course that he or she is being paid Title IV funds for retaking, then that is not counted as his or her one allowed retake for that course. However, if a student passed a class once, then is repaid for retaking it, and fails the second time, that failure counts as their paid retake, and the student may not be paid for retaking the class a third time. • Some Private Educational Loans (as required by the lender) Financial Aid Refund and Repayment Policy Refunds Refunds will be returned to the programs from which the student received aid. The Higher Education Act of 1998, Public Law 105244, substantially changed the way funds paid toward a student’s education are managed should the student, as a recipient of federal financial aid, withdraw from school. If a student who was awarded financial aid withdraws from school, he/she is eligible for the “institutionally-determined refund” that remains after the immediate repayments of the financial aid award to the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships. This policy also applies to students on whose behalf a parent has borrowed a Title IV loan. Refunds are returned to the programs that awarded the student aid. In the case of federal financial aid, a statutory schedule is used to determine the amount of federal financial aid that has been earned based on the period the student was in attendance. Up through the 60% point, in each payment period of enrollment, a pro rata schedule is used to determine how much federal financial aid the student will receive. After the 60% point, in the payment period of enrollment, a student has earned 100% of the federal funds awarded for the period. The percentage earned will be calculated based on the following schedule: Week 1 6 percent Week 2 12 percent Week 3 18 percent Transfer Credits When evaluating SAP, a student’s transfer credits, accepted by The Citadel toward completion of the student’s degree program, will count as both credit hours attempted and hours earned. Week 4 25 percent Week 5 31 percent Week 6 37 percent Week 7 43 percent Change of Major Students that have changed majors and earn more than the maximum allowable number of credit hours toward graduation will be required to submit an SAP Appeal. Week 8 50 percent Week 9 56 percent Week 10 60 percent Week 11-16 100 percent Second Degrees Students that are completing a second degree will be required to submit an SAP Appeal to explain the reason behind earning more than 150% of allowable credit hours. Financial Aid Funds Covered By SAP Standards • Federal Pell Grant • Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) • Federal Work Study • Federal Direct Loan, subsidized and unsubsidized • Federal Direct PLUS Loan • Federal Direct Graduate PLUS Loan • South Carolina Teachers Loan • South Carolina Career Changers Loan • South Carolina Palmetto Fellows Scholarship • South Carolina LIFE Scholarship • South Carolina Need-Based Grant • Other federal/state programs as required 16 For example, if a student has received $1,000 in Federal Financial Aid and withdraws within the first week of classes, that student will receive 6 percent ($60) of the aid award applied to total charges. The remaining $940 will be returned to the Federal Financial Aid programs in the following order: 1. Unsubsidized Student Loans 2. Subsidized Student Loans 3. Perkins Loans 4. PLUS Loans/Graduate PLUS Loans 5. Federal Grants 6. Other Assistance under Title IV The refund and repayment provisions mandated by the federal government for federal aid recipients apply when a student receives financial aid funds and withdraws, drops out, takes an unapproved leave of absence, fails to return from an approved leave of absence, is expelled, or otherwise fails to complete the period of enrollment for which he or she was charged. The refund and repayment requirements DO NOT APPLY to a student who: CGC Academic Catalog �• • • Withdraws, drops out, or is expelled before his or her first day of class, or Withdraws from some classes, but continues to be enrolled in other classes, or Does not receive funds for the period in question. (Students whose parents received a PLUS Loan are considered to have received funds and so are covered for the refund and repayment requirements.) Repayments If a student’s non-instructional educational expenses (allowances as prescribed below) incurred up to the time of withdrawal exceed the amount of cash disbursement, the student does not owe a repayment. If cash disbursed exceeds the non-instructional costs of education incurred up to the time of withdrawal, the student does owe a repayment. This repayment is the difference between costs incurred and the actual cash refund received. Non-instructional expenses are determined by calculating the percentage of room, board, books, supplies, travel, and personal expenses incurred during the portion of the term a student is enrolled. Off-campus board and personal expenses are prorated on a weekly basis. There is no proration of on-campus room charges. A percentage of books, supplies, and travel costs is allowed based on length of enrollment. Student Aid Accounts to be Refunded and Repaid Once the amounts to be refunded and/or repaid are determined, the aid programs from which the student received funds will be reimbursed in the following order: 1. Federal Direct/Stafford loans 2. Federal Perkins loans 3. Federal PLUS loans received on behalf of the student 4. Federal Pell Grants 5. Federal SEOG Grants 6. Other Title IV programs 7. Other federal, state, private, or institutional student financial assistance received by the student for which refunds are required 8. The student to meet the needs of students receiving benefits under the following programs: • Ch. 30—Montgomery GI Bill ®—Active Duty, Veterans • Ch. 31—Vocational Rehabilitation • Ch. 33—Post 9-11 GI Bill® • Ch. 35—Dependents’ Educational Assistance Program • Ch. 1606—Montgomery GI Bill®—Selected Reserve Due to the complexity of VA educational benefits, students are encouraged to contact The Citadel’s Veterans Student Success Office well in advance of the beginning of the semester. Students who have already applied for benefits should submit a copy of their Department of Veterans Affairs Certificate Eligibility. In compliance with federal regulations, students are required to follow guidelines set by the Department of Veterans Affairs. VA Certification Policies and Procedures can be found on The Citadel’s website under Veterans Services. Staff can be reached at 843-9539824 or email at va_benefits@citadel.edu. Refunds No fees are refunded after the published drop deadline. This date is usually following two class meetings and is published in the term calendar ahttp://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-importantdates. To obtain the appropriate refund, a student must drop the course via Lesesne Gateway. The Citadel Graduate College may authorize a refund for extenuating circumstances after the scheduled refund date if a formal appeal is made in writing. Extenuating circumstances are defined as a death in immediate family, serious medical issues, or military deployment. Registration, technology, infrastructure, and application fees are not refundable. Other Assistance Vocational Rehabilitation Scholarships: This program provides for education and training if the student has a physical or mental disability that is a substantial handicap to employment and if there exists reasonable expectation that vocational rehabilitation services may lead to gainful employment. Additional information is available through the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation in the student’s home state. College Budget Plans: The Citadel Tuition Payment Plan (CTPP) allows families to finance the cost of Tuition, Auxiliary Fees (Housing/Room/Board) and OneCard. The plan is offered as a service to the student, allowing the student to finance education and related costs over the period of a semester. To calculate the amount to include in the plan, students should subtract financial aid and any scholarships from their balance- and only place their uncovered expenses in the payment pan. There is a $50 enrollment fee per term. The plan is for 5 equal payments. Enrollment deadlines can be found on the Treasurer’s web page at www.citadel.edu\treasurer. Veterans Services: Services are administered under the umbrella of student financial aid at The Citadel. Veteran services are intended CGC Academic Catalog 17 �Academic Regulations and Procedures Application for Resident Status for Tuition and Fee Purposes Students who do not complete the training will not be allowed to register for the next semester until proof of completion is presented to the CGC office. The Citadel Student Honor Code Any student or prospective student who is uncertain about payment of in-state tuition and fees has the responsibility of securing a ruling from The Citadel by providing all relevant information on special application forms. These forms can be obtained from the Office of the Registrar, Bond Hall, Room 173, or online at http://www.citadel.edu/registrar/forms/. Completed forms must be returned to that office at least four to six weeks prior to registration for any semester or summer term for which the student is attempting to qualify for in-state tuition and fee rate. Requirements for Graduation In addition to the program requirements, the following requirements must be met for graduation. The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar is an online professional development seminar in which graduate students at The Citadel learn about principled leadership and the institution’s core values – honor, duty, and respect. Participants focus on what it means to be a member of The Citadel community, and the application of core values as a guiding feature of one’s place in life and in leadership within an organization. All graduate degree-seeking and certificate students entering The Citadel Graduate College are required to register for and complete The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar. The seminar is taught by The Citadel’s Department of Leadership Studies. Students must register for the seminar via Lesesne Gateway and complete the course during their first semester of enrollment. Darkness to Light Training The Citadel is the first college in the country to enter into an agreement with the Darkness to Light Foundation for campus- wide training for all faculty, staff, and students on child sexual abuse. This “Stewards of Children” training program assists the college in creating policies and programs to protect children and provides faculty, staff, and students with insight into how to recognize potential problems and the appropriate ways to respond should a concern be raised about a child. The Citadel’s goal is 100% compliance, meaning all faculty, staff, and students will be required to either participate in the training or demonstrate proof that they received it elsewhere. All students (day veteran, active duty, graduate students including those enrolled in graduate certificates) who enroll in Citadel course(s) are required to successfully complete D2L training in their first semester on campus through their participation in LDRS 500. Students who have completed D2L training in the last five years need only provide a copy of their certificate of completion by 18 uploading it through the Principled Leadership Seminar course – LDRS 500. Honor Code Statement: It is the responsibility of all community members to promote, abide by, and enforce the following honor code: “A Citadel student (e.g. graduate, undergraduate, or veteran) does not lie, cheat, steal, nor tolerate those who do.” It is the responsibility of all Citadel community members to promote, abide by, and enforce the following honor code.

Each student does his or her own work and refrains from any form of academic dishonesty, including plagiarism and cheating. In personal conduct, each student acts in a professional and ethical manner and refrains from any form of disrespectful behavior to any other member of The Citadel community. In addition to students enrolled in degree programs and certificates, or as part of a joint program with other institutions, this honor code is also applicable to transient students and cadets who enroll in courses during the summer. Definition of Terms: In general, four types of conduct fall under the honor code: lying, cheating, stealing, and the toleration of those who engage in any of these activities. 1) Lying.

Training of Honor Council Members: All members are required to participate in a workshop/training seminar on Citadel Honor Code and procedures. Note: this training should be similar in nature to what cadet honor court members receive on procedures and content. Procedures: Any student, faculty member, or administrator may charge a student with an honor code violation. All accused students participating in Honor Council hearings are guaranteed the following rights during a hearing: 1. The right to a representative. In all college hearings and boards in which a student faces suspension, dismissal or expulsion, the student may be represented by up to two student representatives. Representatives must be students in the same academic program as the student facing disciplinary action, i.e., graduate students or evening undergraduate students may not serve as representatives for cadets, nor may cadets serve as representatives for graduate or evening undergraduate students. Representatives may participate in the board or hearing, including speaking directly to the board or hearing officer and questioning witnesses. 2. The right to question all witnesses. In cases where the complainant is an alleged victim, accommodations may be made. 3. The right to present evidence and call witnesses. 4. The right to decline making any statements or answering questions. In doing so, the Council may draw inferences, either positively or negatively, from such a refusal. 5.

The complainant and the accused student may arrange for witnesses to present pertinent information to the hearing. Witnesses will provide information to and answer questions from the Honor Council. 6. Pertinent records, exhibits, and written statements may be accepted as information for consideration during the hearing at the discretion of the Honor Council Chair. 7. All procedural questions are subject to the final decision of the Honor Council Chair. 8. After the portion of the hearing concludes in which all pertinent information has been received, the Honor Council shall determine whether the accused student is in violation of the Non-Cadet Honor Code. 9. The determination shall be made on the basis of a preponderance of the evidence--whether it is more likely than not that the accused student violated the Honor Code. Formal rules or process, procedure, and/or technical rules of evidence, such as those applied in criminal or civil court, are not used in these proceedings. 10. There shall be a single audio recording of all student conduct hearings (not including deliberations). Deliberations should not be recorded. The record shall be the property of The Citadel. If an accused student, with notice, does not appear for a hearing, the information in support of the charges shall be presented and considered even if the accused student is not present. Hearing Protocol: I. Introductions of the participants in the hearing II. Chair or Administrator reviews hearing process and procedures III. Chair or Administrator confirms charges and statements of responsibility IV. Complainant/university calls witnesses A. Complainant asks questions of witnesses B.

All parties have opportunity to ask any additional questions to accused student and/or complainant VII. Deliberations by Board - Student will be notified of the CGC Academic Catalog 19 �decision in writing via university e-mail, with a hardcopy sent by registered mail, within three business days. Range of Sanctions: Note: This list is not exhaustive and may be modified to meet particular circumstances in any given case. All sanctions become a part of student’s official record. Final appeals of Honor Council rulings are made to the President. The procedure for appeals is found in the campus policies and procedures manual. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Expulsion—Permanent forced withdrawal from The Citadel. Although this may be imposed as a first offense for serious cases, it is usually imposed after other disciplinary methods have not achieved desired results. In all cases in which expulsion is appropriate, the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management will submit documentation and findings to the President of the college for final disposition. The President may elect, at his discretion, to impose another penalty. The student will be notified of the President’s decision, and that decision is final. A student’s suspension or expulsion will be noted on his or her transcripts. Dismissal—Forced withdrawal from The Citadel for two semesters. Suspension—Forced withdrawal from The Citadel for one semester. In instances of both dismissal and suspension, students may not visit campus or participate in any campusrelated activities. An exception to this rule is if the student is seeking clarification of his or her academic record and a physical visit to campus is required. Reprimand—Written notice to student that behavior was unacceptable and that further issues could result in suspension or expulsion. Restriction—Loss of privileges including but not limited to parking on campus, access to university facilities, etc. Course Withdrawal—From the course in which the offense occurred. Grade Change—Only for cases involving academic integrity. Such a sanction must be approved by the Provost or the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Restitution—Reimbursement for physical damages or loss of property. Appeals: Grounds. An appeal does not provide a second forum in which to present the case. Appeals deal only with how a decision has been reached and not with the decision itself. The following are the exclusive grounds for all disciplinary and academic appeals: 1. 2. That the hearing officer or board failed to provide due process; That significant information has been discovered since the board or hearing, which would probably change the result, but which could not, in the exercise of due diligence, have been presented to the board or hearing. A review by the President is not considered an entitlement but is within the scope of authority of the President. This is the final appeal at the institution and if applicable, all imposed sanctions are implemented after the President issues his decision. Title IX at The Citadel Title IX of the U.S. Education Amendments of 1972 (“Title 20 IX”) is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs and activities. The Citadel does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the education programs or activities that it operates including admissions and employment. Under Title IX, discrimination on the basis of sex can also include sexual harassment which is defined as conduct on the basis of sex that satisfies one or more of the following : 1. 2. 3. An employee of the College conditioning the provision of education benefits on participation in unwelcome sexual conduct (i.e., quid pro quo); or Unwelcome conduct that a reasonable person would determine is so severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive that it effectively denies a person equal access to the institution’s education program or activity; or Sexual assault (as defined in the Clery Act), dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking as defined in the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Any person may report sex discrimination, including sexual harassment (whether or not the person reporting is the person alleged to be the victim of conduct that could constitute sex discrimination or sexual harassment), in person, by mail, by telephone, or by electronic mail, using the contact information listed for the Title IX Coordinator, or by any other means that results in the Title IX Coordinator receiving the person’s verbal or written report. Such a report may be made at any time (including during non-business hours) by using the telephone number, electronic mail address, or by mail to the office address listed for the Title IX Coordinator. The following person has been designated to handle inquiries related to Title IX: Valerie Mercado, Title IX Coordinator; 171 Moultrie St, Bond Hall 192, Charleston, SC, 29409; 843-953-6881; vmercado@citadel.edu. The Citadel Policy https://www.citadel.edu/root/title-ix provides information on The Citadel’s grievance procedures, including how to report or file a complaint and how The Citadel will respond. Inquiries can also be made to the Assistant Secretary. The Assistant Secretary contact information is U.S. Department of Education, Office of Postsecondary Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, S.W., Washington, DC 20202, Main Telephone: 202453-6914. Academic Standards All students are expected to maintain high academic standards. In addition to the grade point average requirements for satisfying degree standards, the following policies set minimum guidelines for all graduate programs. Specific programs may establish more rigorous criteria for satisfactory progress. Students should carefully study the sections of this catalog pertinent to their degree program for statements about expectations, which may exceed these minimal criteria. CGC Academic Catalog �Any grade of “C” (ie. “C”, “C+”) is a warning that the individual is not performing at the level expected of graduate students; a grade of “F” is a clear statement of inadequate performance. Either a “C” or “F” grade calls into question the expectation of reasonable progress toward the degree. In order to maintain appropriate academic quality, the following policy applies to students enrolled at The Citadel: who does not participate over any 2 week period will be administratively dropped from the roll and the last date of attendance will be determined by participation of the student in class activities. If a student receives a grade of “F” in a graduate course, regardless of his or her status, the student will be terminated from the program. The student may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement. If the student is granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for that term. If a student receives seven (7) or more credit hours of graduate course work with a grade of “C”or “C+” regardless of his or her status, the student will be terminated from the program. The student may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement in the program. If a student is granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for that term. Any student admitted to a graduate program who has earned or attempted twelve (12) hours of graduate credit must have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher to continue in the program. If a student’s GPA falls below a 3.0 any time after the completion of twelve (12) hours of graduate credit, the student must improve his/her GPA to a minimum 3.0 by the time he/she has completed nine (9) additional graduate credit hours. If the student achieves a minimum 3.0 while completing these nine (9) additional graduate credit hours, the standard of maintaining a 3.0 GPA begins again. The Citadel graduate programs vary in their exit requirements. While all degree programs require at least a 3.0 cumulative GPA (3.25 for Ed.S.) for graduation, some have an exit examination or exit project requirement. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of these standards. 1. 2. 3. Some programs have stricter program requirements. Check with your program advisor for the standards for your program. Generally, a student can expect to receive a decision on an appeal within 10 working days. Students are encouraged to provide a courtesy copy of grievances and appeals to the CGC for record. Catalog of Record The catalog bearing the number of the academic year in which the student enters The Citadel will be his or her catalog of record for academic program requirements. Class Attendance Regular attendance is required of all Citadel students, and the attendance record maintained by the instructor is official. In case of absences due to illness or other circumstances beyond their control, students should notify the instructor as soon as possible. Online Course Attendance Policy Distance education (online) students are subject to The Citadel’s attendance policy. Attendance in a distance education (online) course is defined by activate participation. Logging into Canvas does not qualify as sufficient evidence of attending, as per federal financial aid guidelines, and nonattendance may affect financial aid and/or veteran’s benefits. Completion of tests, submission/completion of assignments, and participation in discussion forums are activities used to document enrollment. Students must participate throughout the semester. Any student Comprehensive Examinations Confidentiality of Student Records The Citadel maintains and discloses information from student records in accordance with the provisions of the “Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974” (FERPA), as amended. This law requires that educational institutions maintain the confidentiality of student educational records. The Citadel accords its students all rights under the law. FERPA coverage applies to all educational records that contain a student’s name, social security number, or other personally identifiable information, in whatever medium, to include electronic form. No one outside of The Citadel shall have access to nor will the institution disclose any information from a student’s educational records without the written consent of the student except in compliance with the provisions of Federal and State law. Educational records may be disclosed to personnel within the institution who have a legitimate educational interest, to parents of students who are dependents as defined by IRS standards, to persons or organizations providing students financial aid, to accrediting agencies carrying out their accreditation function, to persons in compliance with a judicial order, or in an emergency, to persons in order to protect the health or safety of the student or others. Within The Citadel community, only those members, individually or collectively, acting in the student’s educational interests are allowed access to student educational records. These members include the Board of Visitors, Faculty, and personnel in the Offices of the President, Provost and Dean of the College, Associate Provost of Academic Affairs, Associate Provost of Enrollment Management, Registrar, and Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs. Directory information about a student may be disclosed at the discretion of The Citadel without the consent of the student unless the student has notified the Registrar within two weeks of the beginning of the academic year (fall semester) that the student refuses to allow the disclosure of such information. Any student desiring to keep directory information confidential must give notice at the beginning of each academic year and the notice is valid only for that year. Course Cancellation It occasionally becomes necessary to cancel a course. The Citadel reserves the right to cancel any course for which there is insufficient enrollment. This cancellation may be done without notice. Students affected by a course cancellation will receive due consideration and notification by the department offering the course. If no other satisfactory arrangements can be made, the CGC Academic Catalog 21 �student will receive a complete refund of all tuition and fees paid. Degree and Certification Requirements Specific requirements are detailed in the appropriate sections of the catalog. The general requirements include completing all specific program requirements and coursework while maintaining at least a “B” (3.0) GPA. Students should check the specific requirements of the program in which they are enrolled. State certification requirements are determined by external agencies over which The Citadel has no control. It is the student’s responsibility to meet these requirements, which are subject to legislative change. Advisors will assist students in staying current with these requirements and adjusting programs of study to reflect any change. Earning a Second Master’s Degree The College permits a student to earn a second Citadel master’s degree in a different program as long as no more than twelve credit hours in common course requirements are applied to the second master’s degree. The Second Master’s Degree must be significantly different in subject matter. Professional Conduct Responsibility for professional conduct rests with students as adult individuals and as members of The Citadel community. CGC students are expected to conduct themselves as the responsible adults they are. All members of the campus community are expected to use reasonable judgement in all aspects of campus life and activity and to show due concern for the welfare and rights of others. Students are expected to adhere to all federal, state, and local laws. The Citadel protects freedom of action and speech, so long as the exercise of this freedom is not of an inflammatory or demeaning nature and does not interfere with the operation of the College. The Citadel’s Conduct Policy prohibits the possession of drugs, destruction of property, making false statements of emergency situations, physical or verbal abuse, or harassment of any sort. Students who violate the rules and regulations of The Citadel are subject to expulsion or lesser sanctions. These rules and regulations are published in “Regulations for Non-Cadet Students for Fall and Spring Semester And All Students, Including Cadets, for Maymester or Summer School,” which can be found online at: http://www.citadel.edu/root/images/BOV/Policies/03-provost/3107-regulations-for-non-cadets.pdf. The Provost or her designee is responsible for administering the disciplinary conduct code for CGC students unless they reside in the barracks during Maymester and Summer School, in which case the commandant is responsible for discipline. Grades Grade of “I” Incomplete “I” grades must be made up during the term following the recording of the grade. A grade of “I” received in the fall term must be made up by the end of the following spring term. A grade of “I” received in either the spring or summer term must be made up by the end of the following fall term. An extension of time not to exceed one additional term may be authorized for extenuating circumstances by the appropriate dean. Grades not made up within the authorized time limit will convert to a grade of “F,” and such courses will be included in calculating the GPA. Pass-Fail Courses For certain courses, such as internships, practica, workshops, professional development courses, etc., a grade of pass or fail may be appropriate. Students taking courses of this nature need to discuss such arrangements with their advisor. Quality points will not be awarded for pass or fail work, and performance that is barely adequate (C+ or below) will not receive credit. Cumulative Grade-Point Average Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. No numerical symbol or percentage is fixed or assigned to the equivalent of any grade. 22 A: A grade of “A” represents work of a high quality. Four quality points are awarded for each credit hour. B+: A grade of “B+” represents above average quality work. Three and one-half quality points are awarded for each credit hour. B: A grade of “B” indicates average graduate work. Three quality points are awarded for each credit hour. C+: A grade of “C+” indicates below average graduate work and is an unsatisfactory grade. Two and one-half quality points are awarded for each credit hour. C: A grade of “C” is unsatisfactory. Two quality points are awarded for each credit hour. P: A grade of “P” indicates work of acceptable, graduate- level quality. While it signifies work of “A” or “B” level, it carries no quality points and is awarded only for designated courses such as workshops, internships, etc. F: A grade of “F” indicates that the minimum requirements have not been met. No quality points are awarded. I: A grade of “I” represents work of satisfactory quality incomplete for authorized reasons. (See section below.) W: A grade of “W” represents withdrawal from a course prior to the scheduled withdrawal deadline. No quality points are associated with the “W”, and there is no academic penalty for the student. IP: A grade of “IP” assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed after two full semesters, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” In addition to completing all specific program requirements, in order to remain in good academic standing, The Citadel Graduate College requires students to maintain a 3.0 GPA. Failure to CGC Academic Catalog �maintain this GPA results in dismissal from that program. Should a student be enrolled in multiple programs or certificates, a cumulative GPA is not sufficiently accurate in determining a student’s academic standing. In such cases, the standard used to determine their eligibility is the student’s GPA in that particular program, not their cumulative GPA. Graduation The Citadel Graduate College is committed to making the graduation and commencement experience a special one for its students. The following policy outlines the procedures for applying to graduate and participation in the annual CGC commencement ceremony. It is each student’s responsibility to apply to graduate. There are three graduation dates each calendar year. There is a May graduation date at the end of the Spring period of instruction, an August graduation date at the end of the Summer period of instruction, and a December graduation date at the end of the Fall semester period of instruction. There is one commencement ceremony each calendar year, in May, following the Spring semester. Graduation 1. Applications for graduation are available on Lesesne Gateway, via the Student Tab. Failure to apply by the deadline incurs a late fee, may delay receipt of the diploma, and may prevent the student from participating in the commencement ceremony. 2. The graduation date is the term in which the student completes all requirements. An incomplete grade is a delay in the completion of a requirement, and the posting of the final grade determines the completion of that requirement. 3. Do not select a graduation date until you plan to meet all requirements by that date as applications are processed and diplomas are ordered based on your graduation application. If the graduation date submitted is not met, a new application will be required along with applicable fee, and the diploma will need to be reordered. 4. To be recommended for a degree, students must satisfactorily complete the program requirements and non-program requirements for the degree. Students must be free from all financial indebtedness to The Citadel. 5. Students may apply for graduation and participate in commencement during the academic year in which they are completing their degree requirements. 6. 7. 8. In some cases, students have completed their program requirements but are unable to participate in the commencement ceremony during the year they intended to graduate (e.g. military deployment, career relocation, or illness). In such cases, students may apply to graduate and participate in the next year’s commencement ceremony. Students exceeding this one year of eligibility will not be allowed to participate in the CGC commencement ceremony. Students who have earned a second master’s degree within the same academic year will be recognized for both programs of study. Children, parents, step-parents, or grandparents who are either graduates of the Corps of Cadets, the Veterans Program, or The Citadel Graduate College may present diplomas to their children, parents, step-parents, grandchildren or grandparents at the CGC commencement ceremony. The graduate must provide the CGC with their full name, relationship, and graduation year before the stated deadline and for approval. Intellectual Property Policy Preamble The Citadel has among its primary purposes teaching, research, and the expansion and dissemination of knowledge. Products of these endeavors include the development and use of intellectual property. It is the policy of the College that its faculty, staff, and students carry out their scholarly work in an open and free atmosphere that encourages publication and creation of such works without constraint but consistent with applicable laws and College policy. This policy will be in accord with the guidelines and criteria published in The American Association of University Professors’ “Statement of Copyright” (Policy Documents and Reports. Ninth Edition, 2001, or subsequent editions). Intellectual Property Ownership of intellectual property will reside with the originator, whether a member of the faculty, staff, or a student, unless: (a) the property is created at the specific direction of the College; or (b) the originator has made exceptional use of College resources in creating it. At the time when the work is directed by the College or at the time when the College makes exceptional resources available to the originator of intellectual property, the Provost and the originator will together determine ownership and will negotiate a written agreement concerning that property. These determinations will be made on a case-by-case basis. Participation in the CGC Commencement Ceremony 1. Students must indicate on their application for graduation they intend to participate in commencement ceremonies. If a student does not confirm intent, they will not be permitted to participate in the ceremony. Nondiscrimination Policy 2. All grade-point average (GPA) requirements have been met. The cumulative grade-point averages for graduate students The Citadel is committed to providing equal opportunities to men must be at least 3.000. and women students in all campus programs, including 3. Graduate students must be no more than 9 credit hours short intercollegiate athletics, in order to make The Citadel the best of meeting degree requirements. coeducational college in America. 4. Students must properly wear official regalia for the commencement ceremony. This commitment requires that no discrimination shall occur in our 5. Students who complete all coursework and degree admissions policies, academic programs or services, as well as requirements during the summer session following that year’s employment practices on the basis of sex, race, color, religion or commencement exercises may participate in that ceremony or national origin. This policy is in accordance with Title IX of the can decide to participate in the commencement ceremony the Educational Amendments of 1972, Section 504 of the following year. CGC Academic Catalog 23 �Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 as amended. Inquiries concerning the application of Title IX and other nondiscrimination laws may be referred to The Citadel’s Affirmative Action Officer and Title IX Coordinator, Bond Hall, Room 369, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, South Carolina, 29409, 843-953-6989, or the Assistant Secretary of Education, Civil Rights Division, US Department of Education, Washington, DC 20201-2516. Repeating a Course Courses may be repeated only under the following circumstances: • No courses may be repeated once a grade of “B” or higher has been earned. • If a class in which a “C+” or “C” was earned is repeated, it may be repeated only one time. • If a course is repeated, the last grade of record is used to determine whether course requirements for graduation have been met. • The hours may be used only once toward graduation. • All courses, previously passed or repeated, will be figured in the student’s GPA. No grade previously recorded is removed from the transcript. Satisfactory Progress and Length of Academic Program Unless otherwise stated, students are expected to complete all degree requirements within a six (6) year period from the time of registration for the first graduate course in that program. Students enrolled in the Ed.S. in School Psychology program have seven (7) years to complete the degree. Students enrolled in the MA in Psychology: Clinical Counseling degree program have a five (5) year limit. Requests for an extension must be initiated by the student to the appropriate Department Head, who is responsible for notifying the student of the decision. Department Heads will forward recommendations through the program extension form, provided by the Office of the Registrar, to their appropriate academic dean. Extension approvals must be on file in the Registrar’s Office prior to application for graduation. If an extension is granted, a probationary extension for one year is authorized. At the completion of that year, an additional extension may be authorized (if necessary) contingent upon the student having made adequate progress. “Adequate Progress” is defined as completing graduate work in two of the three semesters (summer session counting as a semester) of the year of probation. An average grade of “B” (3.0) for that year is also required. At all levels, the department or school will be responsible for oversight of student progress and initiation of action related to unsatisfactory progress. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of courses that will not meet graduation time lines for satisfactory progress. Advisors should assist students with this calculation. Student Academic Grievances The academic grievance process of the college is reserved for the most serious alleged offenses. These matters deal not with differences of opinion, but with violations of due process; denial of individual rights; or unequal treatment/ discrimination based on sex, race, color, or national origin. Students who feel that they have 24 an academic grievance are directed first to confer with the instructor or other individual(s) involved. Where this does not result in satisfaction or if this step is not feasible, the student should present the grievance in writing to the lowest appropriate level not involved in the grievance, department head or Dean. If the student does not receive a response within a reasonable period of time, normally considered two weeks, a copy of the written grievance may be provided to the next higher academic level not previously involved in the grievance, i.e. the department head or the school Dean, with a request for assistance in resolving the grievance. A final appeal for satisfaction may be made to the Provost. The purpose of this process is to permit each level of the academic level of authority to have the opportunity to resolve the grievance satisfactorily. The Graduate College does not process academic matters. However, students are encouraged to provide a courtesy copy of grievances and appeals to the Associate Provost for Enrollment Management for record. The Associate Provost or her designee will monitor time lines and processes for compliance with procedure and will inform the appropriate level of the academic authority if procedure is not followed. Student Appeal of Grade A student who wishes to appeal the final grade assigned in a course must first confer with the instructor of the course in which the grade was received. If this does not result in satisfaction, the student should contact the appropriate department head who will review the matter. The faculty member and the student are both obligated to provide requested relevant information to the department head. The department head will present his/her findings to the student within ten working days of being contacted. If this does not result in satisfaction, the student should contact the school Dean who will review the matter. The faculty member and the student are both obligated to provide requested relevant information to the Dean. The Dean will present their findings to the student within ten working days of being contacted. If this does not result in satisfaction, the student should contact the Associate Provost who will appoint a hearing board of three faculty members, with one designated as chair, and a student in good standing of the same student type as the appellant. This board shall have the authority to study records and materials. The board shall forward its findings and recommendations to the Provost, who shall decide the case. The decision of the Provost is final. Student Responsibility The College and departments establish certain academic requirements that must be met before a degree is granted. Advisors, department heads, and Deans are available to help the student understand and arrange to meet these requirements, but the student is responsible for fulfilling them. If, at the end of a student’s course of study, the requirements for graduation have not been satisfied, the degree will not be granted. For this reason, it is important for each student to be acquainted with all academic, financial, and administrative requirements within the prescribed deadlines and time limits. CGC Academic Catalog �Transcript Student Services A transcript is a confidential document and is released only when students make a request online at www.citadel.edu/root/registrartranscripts. The transcript fee is based on the method of delivery. Transcripts can be sent electronically, mailed, or picked up in the Registrar’s Office. An official college transcript is one that is sent directly from The Citadel to the requestor. It bears the college seal, along with a date and official signature. Most colleges require the official record. Transcripts sent from other colleges to The Citadel become the property of The Citadel and cannot be issued to the student as a third party. Leave of Absence Policy There are many reasons why graduate students could miss courses in a given academic year. These include medical reasons, military deployment, temporary changes in job status, or other reasons. In an effort to better identify students in these situations, along with providing a mechanism that grants a respite from the time limits for degree completion, a leave of absence policy has been created. This policy also excludes students who have not enrolled in courses in a given semester. Since they will be recognized as “on leave,” these students will not be included in the list of students eligible to be contacted by Graduate College staff. The following outlines the parameters of The Citadel Graduate College’s Leave of Absence Policy. Leave Of Absence Request Students who intend to take a pause from enrolling in courses for up to three semesters in a given academic year can communicate this to the Office of the Registrar through an online web form, available at http://www.citadel.edu/registrar-forms. Students may request a leave of absence for up to three semesters in an academic year (including summer, which constitutes a single term). Students with an approved leave of absence need not reapply for admission to the Graduate College unless the leave extends beyond three semesters in a given academic year. In such cases, they must request to reactivate their student record for their program of study using the form available on the Registrar’s Office webpage mentioned above. A leave of absence request should normally occur prior to the drop/add date. If the student’s request is made after these deadlines, a reasonable and compelling explanation for the delay must accompany the request. In such cases, supporting documentation (e.g. medical, mental health, deployment, temporary job transfer) should be provided with the request. The decision to grant the leave of absence is at the discretion of the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Students who request a leave of absence after the drop/add date during the semester may be responsible for at least a portion of the tuition for the classes in which they are enrolled. In such cases, students should consult with the Treasurer’s Office as well as the Office of Financial Aid to determine if their time away from campus impacts their student loan eligibility. Student Success Center The Citadel’s Student Success Center (SSC) provides a wide range of academic support services. Included among these are the enhancement of writing, mathematical, and reading skills; the general improvement of academic performance in all subject areas; and an emphasis on retention throughout The Citadel’s academic community. In addition to individual and small-group tutorials held in the Center, the staff conducts requested workshops for both graduate and undergraduate classes. In all of its activities, the Center strives to assure that its efforts are consistent not only with the mission statement of The Citadel, but also with the objectives of the academic departments and specific graduate programs. Although there may be an occasional exceptional situation in which it is appropriate to restrict the nature of the assistance that may be offered by the Center (e.g., because of specific program accreditation issues that might impact, say, a particular assignment), all students are encouraged to take advantage of the resources offered by the Student Success Center. Disability Services Services for Students with Disabilities. The SSC empowers students to manage challenges and limitations that may be characteristic of their particular disabilities. Our professionally trained staff provide students with exceptional services as they transition to college or continue their studies at The Citadel. The office serves students with learning, physical, health, or psychiatric disabilities by managing the varying demands of The Citadel experience. In addition, to serving students, the staff assists The Citadel community in making programs, services, and activities accessible to everyone. The SSC provides services and academic accommodations for both graduate and undergraduate students with documented disabilities. Office of Multicultural and International Student Services Bridging together history, tradition & cultures within the Citadel Family and around the World, the Office of Multicultural and International Student Services enhances the undergraduate experience through co-curricular programs and culturally relevant services that are meant to empower students in their identity, build community, and help a diverse group of students find their individual and collective voices. Veteran Student Success Center The Citadel’s Veteran Student Success Center provides an array of resources and support for veteran students and those still serving in the military, as well as their dependents. In addition to providing a physical space where students can gather, the center serves as an onramp to navigating and accessing military-related education benefits. CGC Academic Catalog 25 �Our services are intended to empower veteran and military students at every point in their academic journey, whether they are new to The Citadel, pursuing post-graduate work or seeking to enter the workforce. CGC Class Ring All graduate students graduating from degree programs are eligible for the CGC Class ring. CGC students may order their ring upon completion of all but the final two semesters of coursework/ internship and must possess an overall 3.0 GPA. To place a class ring order, contact the Alumni Center at (843) 953-7698. The Alumni Center will verify eligibility. Parking Secure parking is available on campus for all Evening, Maymester and Summer School students. All automobiles parked within The Citadel gates are required to have a parking tag. The tags are obtained in person in the Public Safety Office after paying the fee in the Treasurer’s Office or by paying the fees in the public safety office. The fee for the parking tag is published online at www.citadel.edu. Very limited parking is available for motorcycles on a first-come, first-served basis just outside the Hagood gate at the end of Huger Street. All motorcycles must have a Citadel parking tag. Two and three wheeled motorized vehicles may not be operated on campus. Recreation Campus recreational facilities are available to students enrolled in classes. These facilities include the Deas Hall weight room, racquetball courts, swimming pool, gymnasium, tennis courts, track, boating center, and The Citadel Beach House located on the Isle of Palms. Students must show The Citadel identification card to use these facilities. Student Identification Cards Students attending on-campus courses may obtain a Citadel identification card. This card is necessary for using The Citadel and area consortium libraries. 26 CGC Academic Catalog �GRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMS CGC Academic Catalog 27 �TOMMY AND VICTORIA BAKER SCHOOL OF BUSINESS 28 MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION CGC Academic Catalog �Master of Business Administration 3.

Mission Statement The Master of Arts (MA) degree program in Intelligence and Security Studies (ISS) prepares students to enhance national security through intelligence and homeland security leadership. Best practices for intelligence collection and analysis and national security combined with current theory, research, and experience give students the background necessary to cultivate critical thinking, concise writing, and effective briefing. By introducing applicable management principles and policy analysis, the program fosters the leadership skills to successfully address security and intelligence challenges facing the United States. Unlike traditional graduate programs that take a theoretical and conceptual track in preparing students for further academic research, The Citadel's ISS program combines theory and practice to provide the real-world skills necessary to enter and advance in the public and private intelligence arenas. This program is entirely online to provide maximum flexibility for students, and at the same time allow the ISS program to attract instruction from intelligence professionals located around the world. By combining current theory, research, and experience, the program offers an intellectually rigorous course of study that emphasizes key skills related to analytical writing and research, critical thinking, and general international and domestic subject matter expertise. In addition, the master's program offers two concentrations, both of which lead to a certificate in addition to the MA degree. The courses in both of these concentrations count as electives for the MA degree in Intelligence and Security Studies.  The Cybersecurity concentration is offered jointly by The Citadel’s Department of Cyber and Computer Sciences and the Department of Computer Science at the College of Charleston;  The Leadership concentration is offered by the Department of Leadership Studies.

The two programs share 24 credit hours. These courses reflect the Department’s recognition that all branches of psychology revolve around a common knowledge base with specializations being an extension beyond that base. The Department of Psychology espouses a philosophical perspective of training and practice that stresses an empirical and applied approach to addressing psychosocial problems of clients. Most faculty members are engaged in clinical practice, research efforts, or both. Faculty members’ activities are guided by a scientist-practitioner model, which emphasizes a scholarly approach to applications of psychology. The Clinical Counseling program offers graduate education at the master’s degree level for those interested in becoming professional counselors in community agencies, including college counseling centers, hospitals, mental health, and social services agencies. The program is accredited by the State Department of Education in South Carolina and the Masters in Psychology and Counseling Accreditation Council (MPCAC).

Students are expected to be familiar with this general attendance policy. The graduate program in School Psychology is, by its nature, an applied practitioner program leading to an anticipated passing score on the PRAXIS II School Psychology subject test and certification as a Level II School Psychologist in South Carolina. A number of the courses are designed to facilitate the acquisition of hands-on experiences with various diagnostic, evaluation, and intervention techniques where skill acquisition is based on instructor demonstrations and modeling, guided individual and group practice and participation by the student, role playing, and group activities, such as simulations, that build the necessary foundations for the acquisition of the basic skills necessary to the practice of the profession of School Psychology. In these courses, a strict absence policy has been adopted to ensure that learning experiences are not compromised. Specifically, courses that fall under this absence policy are as follows: PSYC-503, PSYC-504, PSYC- 505, PSYC-512, PSYC 612, PSYC-615/616, PSYC-617/618, PSYC605, PSYC-606, PSYC-607, PSYC-608, PSYC-621, and PSYC622. Students enrolled in these classes are advised to consult their syllabus and instructor for more specific details.

The purpose of this program is to offer advanced undergraduate students the opportunity to begin taking graduate-level courses during their senior year, and have those courses be applied toward an MA in Biology degree. After earning a Bachelor’s degree, students in this program will continue their graduate coursework until completing the requirements for the MA in Biology program. It is expected that students in this program will complete the requirements for both the Bachelor’s degree and the Master’s degree in a total of five years. Undergraduates in this program will acquire a broader and deeper education in modern biology through additional advanced coursework. An advanced degree in Biology can provide employment opportunities that the Bachelor’s degree alone cannot provide. This program will also provide students looking to strengthen their application credentials to professional schools, including medical and dental schools, an opportunity to pursue an advanced degree in an accelerated timeframe. Admission Requirements The program is available to Citadel undergraduate students majoring in any discipline as long as they have successfully completed a minimum of eight credit hours in biology coursework. Students interested in this program should apply during their junior or senior year. However, students are encouraged to apply by the end of their junior year to help ensure that they have the full subsequent year, including the summer, to begin taking courses for graduate credit. This program is not available to undergraduates enrolled at other institutions, or who have completed a Bachelor’s degree or advanced degree at another institution. 1. Complete and return an online application form along with the non-refundable application fee to The Citadel Graduate College. 2. Applicants are expected to have a cumulative undergraduate GPA of 3.5 or higher. 3. Senior (1A) classification 66 Program requirements for the Accelerated Master of Arts in Biology are identical to that of the Master of Arts in Biology program. A student enrolled in the Accelerated Master’s Program can register for up to two graduate level courses during the summer and one graduate level course during each of the fall and spring semesters. Undergraduate students enrolled in graduate classes will be held to The Citadel Graduate College policies in those classes. Cadets in graduate classes will continue to be subject to the honor system as prescribed by “The Honor Manual of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets.” Following successful completion of the requirements for the Bachelor’s degree, students would be classified as graduate students by The Citadel Graduate College and follow all of their policies and procedures. At the discretion of the graduate program director and the student’s undergraduate major dean/department head, the student may have up to two courses, or eight credit hours, waived from their undergraduate major degree requirements for completing graduate level courses with a grade of B or higher.

The School offers programs to prepare school teachers, school counselors, literacy teachers, literacy coaches, and educational administrators. The Citadel has been involved in the preparation of teachers since the creation of the School of Education and Psychology in 1929. In 1954, the School of Education was approved as a separate department. Master’s degree programs for teachers and Master’s degree programs for prospective counselors were authorized in 1968. Master’s degree programs for school administrators were authorized in 1970. The Educational Specialist degree in educational administration was approved in 1975, and the Educational Specialist degree in School Psychology was approved in 1980. Prior to 1974, the South Carolina State Department of Education (SCDE) approved The Citadel’s Educator Preparation programs. In 1974, all professional education programs offered by The Citadel were initially accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). Both state-approved program status and national accreditation have been continuous since they were initially granted. The most recent SCDE, Commission on Higher Education (CHE), and NCATE/CAEP program reviews, conducted in the spring of 2013, resulted in continuing program accreditation approval. The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) granted accreditation in July 2005 to the School Counseling Programs which offers a Master of Education in Counselor Education. Statement of Philosophy The philosophy of the Zucker Family School of Education at The Citadel is based on five fundamental propositions. These propositions serve to orient the mission and conceptual base of the School, guide the actions and value system of the faculty, shape the curricula of the various programs, and provide to its faculty their sense of purpose and meaning for teaching, scholarship, and professional service. These five propositions are: 1. The faculty is committed to promoting education for all individuals to the fullest extent possible. With the implementation of appropriate teaching and assessment strategies, a fundamental guiding belief is that all students, though having unique learning styles and experiences, are capable of learning. 76 2. It is the educator’s responsibility, with the aid of appropriate resources and support, to establish a mutually respectful environment where effective learning occurs for all students. 3. Education is a systematic effort to facilitate the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values necessary for the student to function in a diverse society. 4. The faculty is committed to upholding the highest professional standards in all situations in which they model these standards to students through their teaching, research, and service endeavors. 5. The faculty is committed to an open interchange of ideas wherein the perspectives of all are valued. The School’s Conceptual Model The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit prepares principled educational leaders to be knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals. Candidates completing our programs are committed to ensuring that all students succeed in a learner- centered environment. Rationale: • Society is in need of principled educational professionals committed to ensuring all students learn; • All children and young adults require high quality educational experiences that enable them to compete and prosper in the global economy; and • Such high quality educational experiences require a transformed educational system focused on fostering twenty– first century knowledge and skills in all children and young adults. The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit is committed to the simultaneous transformation of the preparation of educational leaders and of the places where they work. Specifically, The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit seeks to develop principled educational leaders who: • Have mastered their subject matter and are skilled in using it to foster student learning; • Know the self who educates (Parker J. Palmer) and integrate this self-knowledge with content knowledge, knowledge of students, and in the context of becoming professional change agents committed to using this knowledge and skill to ensure that all students succeed in a learner-centered environment; and • Exemplify the highest ethical standards by modeling respect for all human beings and valuing diversity as an essential component of an effective learner-centered environment. Through our initial program for teacher candidates for P-12 schools and our advanced programs for professional educators in P-20 schools, The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit shapes cadets and graduate students into principled educational leaders capable of and committed to transforming our schools into learning communities where all succeed. The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit has identified 15 performance indicators for candidates to demonstrate that they are principled educational leaders who are knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals: CGC Academic Catalog �Knowledgeable Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Have mastered the subject matter of their field of professional study and practice; 2. Utilize the knowledge gained from developmental and learning theories to establish and implement an educational program that is varied, creative, and nurturing; 3.

Demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning; Reflective Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Develop and describe their philosophy of education and reflect upon its impact in the teaching and learning environment; 2. Develop and manage meaningful educational experiences that address the needs of all learners with respect for their individual and cultural experiences; 3. Construct, foster, and maintain a learner-centered environment in which all learners contribute and are actively engaged; 4. Apply their understanding of both context and research to plan, structure, facilitate, and monitor effective teaching and learning in the context of continual assessment; and 5. Reexamine their practice by reflectively and critically asking questions and seeking answers. Ethical Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Demonstrate commitment to a safe, supportive, learning environment; 2. Embrace and adhere to appropriate professional codes of ethics; 3.

The Professional Education Board LiveText Account To facilitate the college-wide mission of preparing principled leaders for professional education, The Citadel established the Professional Education Board (PEB). The Citadel PEB’s primary focus is to foster academic environments that promote the development of principled leaders for the education profession and to facilitate the continuing improvement of professional education programs across the institution. In pursuing these goals, the PEB will concentrate on communication, assessment, and governance issues. The Citadel’s Dean of the Zucker Family School of Education chairs the Board, which is comprised of representatives from all of The Citadel’s professional education constituencies, including faculty, staff, students, and our P-12 colleagues. PEB members are appointed by the Dean of the School of Education in collaboration with the Deans of Humanities and Social Science, of Science and Mathematics, and of The Citadel Graduate College. Beginning in September 2006, the Professional Education Board meets monthly during each academic year. Zucker Family School of Education degree-seeking students (and those approved for certification only in counseling or educational leadership programs) must purchase a LiveText account at The Citadel’s Bookstore. LiveText makes it possible for education students to have secure access to their portfolios and other important materials. Through LiveText, faculty members and administrators collect data, generate reports from the data, and use this information to make informed program and unit decisions. Appeals Process Education students who have extenuating circumstances may request to appeal policies by writing to the School’s Admission, Retention, and Certification committees. Appeal letters should be addressed to the Dean of the School, who will direct it to either the Initial Programs Committee or the Advanced Programs Committee for recommendation. The committees’ CGC Academic Catalog 77 �recommendations regarding appeals will be forwarded to the Dean of the School for final action. Transfer Credit No more than 12 hours may be transferred from other accredited colleges or universities (e.g. Southern Association of Colleges, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, etc.).

PSCI-574—Global Issues Three Credit Hours The course will review the new context for state interaction and global order. The most significant question is whether the international community can weather the storm of new challenges and threats without a central gatekeeper, such as the United States. Globalization has also given other states (established and newly emerging powers) opportunities to exploit the inability of the United States to foment a new architecture of stability and order. Follower states have found opportunities (many derived from the expanding and deepening global trading system) to undermine American dominance. Also, some states have moved to establish regional political and security alliances that not only speak to their needs (counter-terrorism, immigration, and natural resource exploitation, for example) but also dilute the “traditional” influence of the United States in these matters. At the same time, there has been a proliferation of “non-state actors” who are able to capitalize on the measurable weakening of national authority and the hesitancy of nation-states to coherently identify, define, and deal with the new challenges. Students will review the impact of global issues from two perspectives: (1) challenges and (2) opportunities within the framework that the traditional role of states as “gatekeepers,” buffering and processing challenges to stability and order has been gradually been transformed. Throughout the course, student groups will take up several issues and proceed to analyze whether international institutions such as the United Nations, and regional and functional non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are in fact dysfunctional when confronted with the challenges of globalization. Student groups will also address the question of whether the Cold War origins and patterning of these NGOs are obstacles to the development of flexible and creative strategies. Finally, although it might be fairly argued that the traditionally conceived state’s influence and role has been diminished, it can also be proposed that the state system will not wither away quietly, and that states will engage in behavior necessary to protect and grow their influence—newly emerging states may resist the influence of older states, but the former seeks similar symbols of power and behave in ways to enhance their own economic and political power on the world stage. Students will be required to complete a comprehensive final exam and to submit a research paper that may be derived from one or more of the paradoxes and contradictions described above. Students with relevant experiences in the private sector, 172 government, military, or non-governmental organizations may, with the permission of the instructor use such experiences to shape their research paradigms.

How and to what extent has international law been used in resolving conflicts between nations? How and to what extent has it facilitated the achievement of common goals? What is the relationship between international law and states’ foreign policies? Emphasis throughout the course is on the substantive rules of the law, the relationship between law and politics, and on the historical episodes that illustrate the issues. PSCI-577—Conflict Studies Three Credit Hours What causes war? What causes intergroup conflict short of war? Why do groups of people systematically kill other groups of people? What do we need to know to prevent conflict/war if possible, and prepare for it when necessary? Is it possible to prevent conflict/war (or prepare for it) if it is often caused by accidents, miscalculation, and misperception? With these questions in mind, this course will develop your ability to analyze the causes, conduct, and consequences of intergroup conflict and war. We will begin by exploring the consequences of war for personal, national, international, and global security. We will then examine theories about the causes of war and apply them to understand the occurrence of World War I, World War II, and the Cold War.

Snyder, ’82, Member Emeritus 6 CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �The Citadel’s Statement of Vision, Core Values, and Mission Statement of Vision Achieving excellence in the education and development of principled leaders Core Values Honor: First and foremost honor includes adherence to the Honor Code of The Citadel. A Citadel student “will not lie, cheat or steal, nor tolerate those who do.” The commitment to honor extends beyond the gates of The Citadel and is a life-long obligation to moral and ethical behavior. In addition, honor includes integrity; “doing the right thing when no one is watching.” Finally, honorable behavior includes exercising the moral courage to “do the right thing when everyone is watching.” The Honor Code is the foundation of our academic enterprise. Duty: First and foremost duty means to accept and accomplish the responsibilities assigned to me. At The Citadel, my primary duty is to perform academically and then to perform as a member of The Citadel and the campus community. I accept the consequences associated with my performance and actions. Once I have held myself accountable for my actions, then I will hold others accountable for their actions. Finally, duty means that others can depend on me to complete my assignments and to assist them with their assignments. Duty is also a call to serve others before self. Respect: First and foremost respect means to treat other people with dignity and worth – the way you want others to treat you. Respect for others eliminates any form of prejudice, discrimination, or harassment (including but not limited to rank, position, age, race, color, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, physical attributes, etc.). In addition, respect for others means to respect the positions of those in authority which include faculty, staff, administrators, active duty personnel, and the leadership of The Citadel. Finally, respect includes a healthy respect for one’s self. Mission As a higher education institution, The Citadel’s mission is to educate and develop our students to become principled leaders in all walks of life by instilling the core values of The Citadel in a disciplined and intellectually challenging environment. A unique feature of this environment for the South Carolina Corps of Cadets is the sense of camaraderie produced through teamwork and service to others while following a military lifestyle. The Citadel strives to produce graduates who have insight into issues, ideas, and values that are of importance to society. It is equally important that Citadel graduates are capable of both critical and creative thinking, have effective communication skills, can apply abstract concepts to concrete situations, and possess the methodological skills needed to gather and analyze information. Throughout its history, The Citadel’s primary purpose has been to educate undergraduates as members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets and to prepare them for post-graduate positions of leadership through academic programs of recognized excellence supported by the best features of a military environment. The cadet lifestyle provides a structured environment that supports growth and development of each student’s intellect, discipline, physical fitness, and moral and ethical values. The four pillars which define The Citadel experience for cadets consist of these four developmental dimensions. A complementary purpose of The Citadel, realized through The Citadel Graduate College, is to provide the citizens of the Lowcountry and the State of South Carolina opportunities for professional development by offering a broad range of educational programs of recognized excellence at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. These programs are designed to accommodate the needs of non-traditional students seeking traditional and demanding academic challenges. Institutional Characteristics. The Citadel is a coeducational, comprehensive, public, four-year institution whose primary undergraduate student body consists of approximately 2,000 members of the Corps of Cadets, all of whom reside on campus. The primary service area for these students is regional, with approximately half of each freshman class coming from South Carolina. The Citadel, however, does draw undergraduate students from all parts of the United States and many foreign countries. The college offers a wide range of baccalaureate degree programs (Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, and Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering) in the humanities, social and natural sciences, business administration, engineering, and education. These academic programs prepare graduates of the Corps of Cadets for a variety of careers; about half of these graduates enter business and the professions, a third or more enter the military and government service, and the remainder go directly into graduate and professional study. Many graduates choose to pursue professional or graduate degrees later in their careers. Through its undergraduate and graduate programs, The Citadel Graduate College serves a degree-seeking population of approximately 1,200. The primary service area is the South Carolina Lowcountry. The Citadel Graduate College offers eleven baccalaureate degree programs (Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Construction Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Bachelor of Science in Tactical Strength and Conditioning, Bachelor of Arts in Social Studies Education, Bachelor of Arts in Intelligence and Security Studies, Bachelor of Arts in Political Science, and Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice), seven graduate degree programs (Master of Arts, Master of Science, Master of Arts in Education, Master of Arts in Teaching, Master of Education, Master of Business Administration, and Specialist in Education) and several graduate certificate programs. Meeting the needs of the South Carolina Lowcountry in terms of instruction, public service, and research, including such initiatives as cooperative programs with other educational institutions, is an important part of The Citadel’s mission. Together, the Corps of Cadets and The Citadel Graduate College enroll approximately 3,200 students, about three-fourths of whom come from South Carolina. In its educational programs, The Citadel acknowledges and endorses the teacher-scholar ideal, recognizing that the excellence of all of its academic programs is dependent upon the quality of its faculty. This ideal is pursued through teaching and lecturing, researching, writing, publishing, and public service. The Citadel’s faculty also address audiences beyond the college by sharing their knowledge with other scholars and with the public. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 7 �The Citadel Graduate College’s Mission/Purpose An important component of a positive educational experience for students involves an intentional effort to meet their needs and offer service that underscores The Citadel Graduate College’s commitment to principled leadership. • Service: Creating a culture that values service, fosters mutual respect, and makes the student’s needs the most important priority; implementing new technologies that enhance our services; and providing timely, efficient, and accurate information to all requests.

If a student withdraws from the college or fails to maintain enrollment for one year and subsequently returns, the requirements in effect at the time of return will prevail. Any exception to policies in this catalog, purported to have been made verbally to a student by an official of the college, are null and void unless documented with a signed statement from the college official authorized to make the exception. • This catalog is not an unchangeable contract but an announcement of the current policies. Implicit in each student’s matriculation at The Citadel is an unwritten agreement to comply with the institution’s rules and regulations, which The Citadel may modify to ensure the quality of its academic programs. When graduation requirements are changed, every effort will be made to insure that the new requirements can be met by the student’s original expected graduation date. Nonetheless, each student is expected to read and be aware of the policies and procedures contained in the catalog in order to assure that admissions, registration, and graduation procedures are being followed. The college cannot assume responsibility for a student who does not comply with policy or procedure. Upon receipt of an application, each applicant is sent an email acknowledging the application. The applicant can log into the application portal to view a list of required supplemental items at any time. • • Completion of the online graduate application along with the nonrefundable application fee. Submission of an official transcript reflecting the highest degree earned from a regionally accredited college or university. Additional transcripts may be required depending on undergraduate course requirements by program. Other supplemental items, which may include official test scores (GMAT, GRE or MAT; see program requirements for acceptable test and test scores), as required by the program. The requirements for acceptance into specific programs and degrees are described in this catalog for each program/degree. If accepted, official copies of all admissions documents must be sent directly to the CGC office, and admission test scores (if required) must be current within five years of application. Full acceptance is not granted until both the CGC and program requirements are met. After acceptance by the program, any non- U.S. citizen must be cleared for registration by The International Office. The TOEFL test is required of any applicant whose native language is not English, unless granted an exception. Upon acceptance, a letter is sent to the student identifying their faculty advisor. Students are encouraged to schedule an appointment with them. While each program has its own set of admissions requirements, ultimate authority to admit a student rests with the provost or designee. Normally departments and programs have the authority to determine admissions criteria and the provost intervenes only in unusual or extraordinary circumstances. However the decision by the provost as the chief academic officer for the college is final. Legal Presence and Residency The State of South Carolina requires all state colleges and universities to verify each student’s legal presence in the United States. Prior to starting classes, each student will be required to submit a photocopy of their birth certificate or valid U.S. passport. Drop/Add and Withdrawals Formal notice of intent to drop or withdraw from any class is necessary in all cases. The dates for dropping and withdrawing are listed in the term calendar at http://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-important-dates. To drop 10 CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �or add a course from the course schedule or to change sections within a course, a student must drop/add through Lesesne Gateway. Approval to drop a course and receive a refund after the published drop date is granted only under extenuating circumstances (i.e. death in immediate family, serious medical issues, deployment). After the drop period, students who choose to withdraw must complete a withdrawal form available in the Registrar’s Office or online. Course withdrawal means a student is withdrawing from a course after the drop/add date has passed. A grade of “W” will appear on the student transcript. The “W” does not affect the student’s grade point average (GPA). Ceasing to attend a course does not constitute an official drop or withdrawal from the course. Any withdrawal request that occurs after the published withdrawal date must have a written justification for the late request to accompany the withdrawal form. Late withdrawal requests will be approved on a case-by-case basis by both the academic dean and the Graduate College. Joint Degree Programs The Citadel participates in joint graduate degree and certificate programs with the College of Charleston in Computer Science, English, History, and Middle School Education. Students routinely take courses at both institutions. Citadel students will register for all their Computer Science, English, History, or Education courses at The Citadel, even when a particular course may be offered at the College of Charleston. Students who have declared a home institution must complete at least 33% of their coursework at that institution. More specific information is available on our webpage, www.citadel.edu/root/graduatecollege-prospective-students/jointprograms. Orientation All students are encouraged to visit the Orientation webpage to become familiar with the student services available to them. The webpage is www.citadel.edu/root/graduatecollege-currentstudents/orientation. Registration Registration is conducted online through Lesesne Gateway. Students may not attend class until they are fully registered. Completed registrations will be honored on a first-come, firstserved basis. Registration is not completed until all fees are paid. All fees are due by published calendar dates. Knowingly attending class without paying is an integrity violation and will result in dismissal from the college. Any changes in registration must be made prior to the end of the term’s Drop/Add period. Information concerning class times and important registration dates can be found for each academic term online at http://www.citadel.edu/root/registrar-courses. Completion of coursework for a program in which a student has not been formally accepted does not imply admission into that program. A student should pursue no more than 8 credit hours of coursework for a program to which they have not been formally accepted. Transcripts and Transfer Credit Graduate students applying for transfer credit will use the “Transfer Credit for Graduate Programs” form located online at http://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-forms. The form will be submitted to the Registrar’s Office through the student’s advisor and department head with a copy of the course description from the catalog of the originating institution and the course syllabus. An official copy of the transcript for the institution where the credit was earned must be on file with the Graduate College. Approval is granted by the student’s department, contingent upon Citadel policy. Only courses with a “B” or higher are acceptable for transfer from accredited colleges and universities (e.g. Southern Association of Colleges, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, etc.). Undergraduate students should refer to the undergraduate section of the catalog for transfer credit information. Veteran’s Status as a Student on The Citadel Campus This policy prescribes rules and regulations related to veteran students on campus. It defines the types of veteran students, the policies related to student status (cadet vs. non-cadet), as well as enrollment requirements, registration, and commencement exercise attendance.

Admission and Student Categories 12 CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �4. 5. 6. 7. Provide completed CGC Immigration Request form. Submit an official TOEFL score if native language is not English. The minimum acceptable score is 550 paper-based, 213 computer-based, or 79 internet-based. *Applicants may be exempted from the TOEFL requirement if the applicant has a minimum of 2 years of course study, with a 3.0 or higher GPA, from an institution accredited by a regional accrediting association in the United States, or the international equivalent from a university of recognized standing in a country in which all instruction is provided in English. Therefore, applicants with completed coursework from the U.S., Australia, Canada (except Quebec), New Zealand, Singapore, and the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales) may be eligible for an exemption. All exemption requests must be made in writing to The Citadel Graduate College and be accompanied by the domestic transcripts showing the minimum requirements for a waiver have been met. Other exceptions may be considered on a case by case basis with written justification and supporting documentation submitted to The Citadel Graduate College for review. If applying for a student visa or transferring a student visa from another institution, must provide evidence of ability to meet all financial obligations while in graduate study at The Citadel by completing the Certification of Finances form prior to enrolling in courses. International students may not register before full acceptance into a degree program and clearance from the International Student Director. Evening Undergraduate Students - Please refer to the Evening Undergraduate Programs Procedure section. Provisional Status - Applicants who do not meet the minimum GPA and/or test score required by their program’s admission criteria may be allowed to pursue coursework as a provisionally admitted student. The purpose of the provisional status is to monitor and support the students’ academic success. Provisional status requires meeting specific academic standards in coursework. Refer to the degree program for provisional requirements. Conditional Status - Applicants who are unable to produce official copies of their transcripts, test scores, or other official documents at the time of their application may be admitted on conditional acceptance. The purpose of the conditional acceptance is to give the student additional time for the official documents to be received by the CGC office. Applicants must be able to produce unofficial copies of these documents for review prior to being accepted on conditional status. Documents must be legible and include important identifying information (applicant name and institution/testing agency name. If unofficial document is a transcript, it must also include a course-by-course listing with credit hours and grades earned, cumulative GPA, degree earned, and date degree conferred (unless pending in your final semester of coursework). Official copies are required at time of admission. Undergraduate Students Taking Graduate and Online Courses Academic seniors with a cumulative Grade Point Average of at least a 3.20 may take up to six hours of graduate courses through The Citadel Graduate College in each semester of their senior year when space is available. These courses may provide students a head start on earning a graduate certificate or a graduate degree, but graduate courses may not be used to meet undergraduate degree requirements and will NOT be used to compute undergraduate GPA. Students must have the permission of the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Undergraduate juniors and seniors accepted in an accelerated program at The Citadel may take and share up to twelve hours of structured graduate credit between the graduate and undergraduate majors. Refer to specific accelerated program requirements for total hours permitted to share. Admission Test For any graduate programs that require submission of an official admissions test score, the test must be current within five years of the application. See the appropriate program for the type of test(s) required. All programs have the option of waiving test scores for students. Applicants for some graduate programs in The Citadel Graduate College who possess a master’s or doctorate degree from a regionally accredited institution may be eligible to waive the requirement to supply an admissions test score. The applicant must send the written waiver request and transcript from a regionally accredited institution, showing a conferred Master’s or higher degree, directly to the Graduate College. If required by the program, The Graduate College will forward the request and transcripts to the academic program director who will communicate the acceptance or denial of the waiver in writing. Advisement and the Planned Program Upon acceptance into a degree program, a student is assigned an advisor in the area of academic concentration. It is the student’s responsibility to confer with this advisor at an early date and at periodic intervals to assure appropriate course selection and awareness of degree requirements. Degree candidates in some programs must file an official program of study. This program of study will be developed in consultation with the student’s advisor and approved by the appropriate Dean or Department Head. This program of study is filed in the Registrar’s Office and will be used in the degree audit process. It is a joint responsibility of the advisor and student to maintain the program of study in a current state. Modifications in a program of study can be accomplished with the written approval of the appropriate Dean or Department Head. Students who wish to select a new major or degree program must file an application and fee, meet all admission requirements of the new major or degree program, and be accepted into the new major or degree program before registration in the new program should occur. Completion of coursework for a program in which a student has not been formally accepted does not imply admission into that program. A student should pursue no more than 8 credit hours of coursework for a program to which they have not been formally accepted. Audit Policy A student may elect to audit a course for no credit. Permission to audit must be obtained from the school/department offering the course and a form must be submitted. Students must possess an undergraduate degree from a regionally accredited college or university to audit a graduate level course. Students cannot switch from credit to audit status, or vice versa, after two class meetings. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 13 �Auditors must apply and be accepted as a non-degree seeking student and are permitted to register for a class on a “space available” basis. The audit fee is the same as the regular credit hour fee. Students must be registered in the class they wish to audit. Course Load Graduate students are considered full-time if they carry nine (9) credit hours accumulated over any combination of courses during a full semester. For students enrolled in one mini term per semester, 4.5 credit hours will be considered full-time for the mini term. The semester hour load for students wishing to be classified as part-time is 4.5 credit hours during a full semester. Students holding Citadel graduate assistantships will be considered as full time if they are taking at least six (6) semester hours. If a student is enrolled in Maymester and two summer sessions, a maximum of five courses (15 credit hours, but 17 credit hours including lab courses) may be taken. The maximum load allowed in Maymester is one course; the maximum load allowed in each summer session is two courses, regardless of how many terms are offered or whether the course is face-to-face or online. Maymester and Summer School The Citadel’s Maymester and Summer School is a component of the CGC which has the responsibility for the coordination and administration of all aspects of The Citadel’s graduate and undergraduate summer school programs. All Maymester and Summer School students are ultimately the academic and administrative responsibility of the Provost. Students residing in the barracks, regardless of academic status are the disciplinary responsibility of the commandant, all other non- cadet students remain as stated above. Undergraduate transient admission to Maymester and Summer School does not constitute admission to the regular academic session of The Citadel. Transient Students Undergraduate transient students seeking initial admission to Maymester and Summer School at The Citadel must complete an application and pay the application fee. High school or college transcripts are required for enrollment in Maymester or Summer School. Rising high school seniors may be admitted on the basis of written recommendations from their high school guidance counselor or principal and may enroll in a maximum of two freshman level courses. Citadel undergraduate day students who are still active students and have already enrolled at The Citadel should contact the Registrar’s Office for registration information and assistance. Undergraduate day program students who are beginning in the upcoming fall semester and wish to take summer courses should contact CGC for application and registration assistance. When cadets enroll in summer courses or graduate courses, they are required to adhere to the rules and policies outlined in the honor code regarding behavior, class performance, and academic standards. Undergraduate 14 students seeking admission into evening undergraduate programs should refer to requirements outlined in each academic section of this catalog. Graduate students enrolled in Maymester and Summer School must go through the admissions procedure outlined in the CGC catalog. Admission to the program and enrollment in courses are governed by the policies outlined for the program to which the student applies. Students enrolled in graduate courses are classified as “Graduate Students.” Registration for all students, graduate and undergraduate, enrolled in Maymester or Summer School at The Citadel must be conducted online via Lesesne Gateway. Course Substitution Course substitutions in degree programs can only be authorized by the approval of the Head of the Department and Dean of the School. Forms to initiate this procedure are available in the Registrar’s Office or online. English Fluency Policy In accordance with the laws of South Carolina, The Citadel ensures the English fluency of its teaching faculty. Should a student challenge the English fluency of a member of the faculty, standard procedures for student academic grievances will be followed. If a review committee is called for, the native language of one of the faculty members will not be English. Pass-Fail Courses For certain courses, such as internships, practica, workshops, professional development courses, etc., a grade of pass or fail may be appropriate. Students taking courses of this nature need to discuss such arrangements with their advisor. Quality points will not be awarded for pass or fail work, and performance that is barely adequate (C+ or below) will not receive credit. Readmission Policy In exceptional and extraordinary circumstances, a graduate student can petition their academic school dean for reinstatement through a letter of appeal, but the granting of such appeals would be considered unusual and rare. The readmission policy for CGC undergraduate students requires a waiting period of one semester, not including summer sessions. A readmission application must be submitted through the Registrar’s Office and an interview by the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs is required. Transfer Credit The Citadel Graduate College does permit up to 12 hours of transfer credit from other accredited higher education institutions and from military education and training recommended for credit by the American Council on Education. No more than 12 hours may be transferred from other accredited colleges or universities (e.g. Southern Association of Colleges, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, etc.). Exceptions may be granted by the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Only graduate credit hours in which grades of “B” or higher have been earned are transferable. Some programs allow fewer hours of transfer credit. Students should check the requirements for specific programs for CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �the maximum number of credit hours that may be transferred into his or her program at The Citadel. To be transferred, credit hours must have been earned within six years of the date of admission to The Citadel. Students who desire to take a course at another institution for transfer while enrolled in CGC must obtain prior approval from their department head. Acceptance of transfer credits within the foregoing rules is the prerogative of the academic department or school. Ordinarily, course work accepted for transfer must parallel course work available at The Citadel. However, where the head of the major department or Dean of the school feels that graduate course work not equivalent to courses at The Citadel will enhance the program, up to six semester hours of such credit may be acceptable. These will be part of the maximum allowable transfer hours for that program. Expenses & Financial Aid Fee Payment The Citadel Treasurer’s Office is responsible for the collection of monies due to The Citadel. All fees are due and payable at the time of registration. If fees are not paid by the date on the term calendar, the student may be dropped from registered classes. Checks should be made payable to The Citadel and mailed to 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, SC 29409. Fees may also be paid online with Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express. Electronic check payments are available at no charge. Deferred payment plans may be arranged in advance of a semester through the Citadel Tuition Payment Plan. Forms are available on the Treasurer’s webpage at www.citadel.edu/treasurer. The Citadel reserves the right to adjust fees at any time to meet the current cost of operation. Fee schedules are published each semester on The Citadel’s web page. All correspondence concerning fees, payments, and status of accounts should be directed to the Treasurer’s office. Financial Aid and Scholarships The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships administers student loan applications, grants, scholarships, and work-study programs. The office is located in Bond Hall, Room 138, and staff can be reached at (843) 953-5187 or by email at financial_aid@citadel. edu. Forms and Deadlines To apply for financial aid at The Citadel, all students should file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at fafsa. ed.gov as soon as possible after October 1 each year. Additional information may be requested by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships. Students are responsible for checking their Lesesne Gateway accounts, completing all requested paperwork, and meeting financial aid requirements in a timely manner. Funds are limited, so late applications are considered for aid only if resources are still available. FAFSA Priority Deadline Dates Academic year (fall and spring) October 31 Fall only October 31 Spring only October 1 Summer April 1 Applicants who have not completed all financial aid paperwork by June 30 should not expect to receive notification of awards prior to the beginning of fall semester. These applicants should be prepared to pay for their tuition, fees, and other costs by established fee payment deadlines. Students are reimbursed if subsequently determined to be eligible for financial aid. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 15 �6. Determining Financial Need The amount of financial aid is based on the FAFSA form the applicant files after October 1 each year. This form solicits information about the family’s current financial situation and produces an “expected family contribution” (EFC). Adjusted gross income data from tax forms are used, along with current asset information to determine family resources. Allowances are made for federal and state taxes, social security, employment (when both parents work), unusual medical and dental expenses, and family size. Other factors considered include any unusual expenses and the number of family members in college. In its simplest definition, financial need is the difference between what a student will pay to attend college and the expected family contribution, as determined by the need analysis. If costs exceed the amount of family contribution, then the applicant has “demonstrated” financial need. Dependent or Independent Status Federal student aid programs are based on the premise that parents have the primary responsibility of financing their children’s education. However, independent students are not required to submit parental data. Students who fall into at least one of the following categories are considered independent: • He/she is at least 24 years old by Dec 31 of the academic year. • He/she is a graduate student. • He/she is married. • He/she is currently serving on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces for purposes other than training. • He/she is a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces. • He/she has children (or other dependents) and will provide more than half of their support. • He/she was in foster care or deemed a dependent or ward of the court. • He/she was an emancipated minor or in legal guardianship as determined by a court. • He/she is determined to be an unaccompanied youth who is homeless or self-supporting and at risk of being homeless. Federal Eligibility Requirements Any student who is accepted for admission is eligible to request financial assistance. However, there are several general eligibility requirements a student must meet to receive federal financial aid: 1. A student must be admitted to The Citadel as a regular or provisional student. 2. A student must be a U.S. citizen, or a national or permanent resident. 3. A student may not receive aid if he or she is in default at any institution on any Federal Student Loan Program. 4. Students must be enrolled at least half-time. This is defined as 4.5 hours/semester for graduate students and six (6) hours/semester for undergraduate students. The only exception to this rule will be internships and practicums, which, given their somewhat unique composition and requirements, qualify a student for half-time status. This definition of half-time status is important to be eligible for financial aid and to qualify for in-school deferment on prior federal student loans. 5. A student may not receive aid if he or she owes a repayment at any institution on a Pell Grant, Supplemental Grant, or State Student Incentive Grant. 16 7. A student must have the minimum grade point ratio and must make satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward a degree to continue to receive federal financial aid. A graduate certificate student is not eligible for federal financial aid. Types of Financial Aid Please visit http://www.citadel.edu/finaid for detailed information about the various financial aid programs offered. Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) for Financial Aid Recipients In compliance with regulations governing federal and/or state financial aid programs, The Citadel is required to monitor each student to be certain that he or she is maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in his or her course of study. SAP standards are separate from The Citadel’s academic policies and are reviewed annually at the end of each spring semester. How the Policy Works Students who fail to meet published SAP standards will be ineligible to receive federal or state financial aid funds. However, those students failing to meet the minimum standards, as prescribed in this policy, may appeal their status by following outlined conditions. Academic Year The academic year for SAP determination is comprised of the fall, spring, and summer terms. Minimum Standards Unsatisfactory academic progress is defined as a failure to meet at least one of the following standards: Undergraduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 12 hours/ semester) must earn 24 credits hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 12 hours. b. Part-time students (enrolled in less than 12 hours/ semester) must earn at least 66% of credit hours attempted in an academic year. 2. GPA – A student’s GPA must meet the required minimum for their grade level according to The Citadel’s academic policies for continuance. a. 1.3 with < 39 attempted hours b. 1.5 with 40 – 69 attempted hours c. 1.7 with 70 – 99 attempted hours d. 2.0 with > 99 attempted hours 3. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 207 hours (more than 150% of program length). Graduate Students 1. Academic Progression a. Full-time students (enrolled in at least 9 hours/semester) must earn 18 credit hours in an academic year. Full-time students enrolled in one semester are considered to be meeting progression standards by earning at least 9 hours. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �b. 2. 3. Part-time students (enrolled in 4.5 hours/semester) must earn at least 66% of credit hours attempted in an academic year. GPA – A student must earn at least a 3.0 grade point average. Attempted credit hours cannot exceed 150% of the student’s program length. SAP Appeal Students who have not met SAP have the opportunity to complete an appeal to regain eligibility for federal aid. Completion of this process does not guarantee reinstatement of federal financial aid. Students are responsible for full payment of tuition/fees regardless of financial aid status. It is also the student’s responsibility to be aware of and to meet all fee payment and financial aid deadlines. The SAP Appeal form is available on the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarship’s webpage on The Citadel website at citadel.edu. The SAP Appeal must include: 1. A completed SAP Appeal Form and Academic Improvement Plan approved by the Academic Support Center and signed by both the advisor and the student, and 2. A letter written by the student that defines why the student failed to make SAP and what has changed that enables the student to meet SAP at the next evaluation. If a student fails to either regain regular SAP eligibility after one semester or meet the conditions of the Academic Improvement Plan, the student is ineligible to receive federal financial aid (Title IV aid). Appeal Deadlines Completed appeal forms must be turned in two weeks before the end of the term for which the appeal is filed. Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: “A” Superior “B” Very Good “C” Satisfactory; Acceptable “D” Marginal; Passing “F” Unsatisfactory “P” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that do not carry credit hours to designate passing performance “S” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses that carry credit hours to designate that a grade of “A”, “B” or “C” has been earned and credit has been awarded “U” Grade assigned in pass/fail courses and in ENGL 101 to designate that a grade of “D” or “F” has been earned and no credit has been awarded “W” Withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline “I” An Incomplete is awarded when course requirements have been very nearly met but for authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. “IP” Grade assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed after two full semesters, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Students who are enrolled in audit courses will not receive financial aid for these courses. Students can access midterm progress and semester grade reports online by using BANNER Self-Service through the Lesesne Gateway portal. Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA/Grade Replacement The regulatory definition for full-time enrollment status (for undergraduates) has been revised to allow a student to retake (one time only per previously passed course) any previously passed course. For this purpose, passed means any grade higher than an “F,” regardless of any school or program policy requiring a higher qualitative grade or measure to have been considered to have passed the course. This retaken class may be counted towards a student’s enrollment status, and the student may be awarded Title IV aid for the enrollment status based on inclusion of the class. A student may be repeatedly paid for repeatedly failing the same course (normal SAP policy still applies to such cases), and if a student withdraws before completing the course that he or she is being paid Title IV funds for retaking, then that is not counted as his or her one allowed retake for that course. However, if a student passed a class once, then is repaid for retaking it, and fails the second time, that failure counts as their paid retake, and the student may not be paid for retaking the class a third time. Transfer Credits When evaluating SAP, a student’s transfer credits, accepted by The Citadel toward completion of the student’s degree program, will count as both credit hours attempted and hours earned. Change of Major Students that have changed majors and earn more than the maximum allowable number of credit hours toward graduation will be required to submit an SAP Appeal. Second Degrees Students that are completing a second degree will be required to submit an SAP Appeal to explain the reason behind earning more than 150% of allowable credit hours. Financial Aid Funds Covered By SAP Standards • Federal Pell Grant • Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) • Federal Work Study • Federal Direct Loan, subsidized and unsubsidized • Federal Direct PLUS Loan • Federal Direct Graduate PLUS Loan • South Carolina Teachers Loan • South Carolina Career Changers Loan • South Carolina Palmetto Fellows Scholarship • South Carolina LIFE Scholarship • South Carolina Need-Based Grant • Other federal/state programs as required • Some Private Educational Loans (as required by the lender) CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 17 �Financial Aid Refund and Repayment Policy Refunds Refunds will be returned to the programs from which the student received aid. The Higher Education Act of 1998, Public Law 105244, substantially changed the way funds paid toward a student’s education are managed should the student, as a recipient of federal financial aid, withdraw from school. If a student who was awarded financial aid withdraws from school, he/she is eligible for the “institutionally-determined refund” that remains after the immediate repayments of the financial aid award to the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships. This policy also applies to students on whose behalf a parent has borrowed a Title IV loan. Refunds are returned to the programs that awarded the student aid. In the case of federal financial aid, a statutory schedule is used to determine the amount of federal financial aid that has been earned based on the period the student was in attendance. Up through the 60% point, in each payment period of enrollment, a pro rata schedule is used to determine how much federal financial aid the student will receive. After the 60% point, in the payment period of enrollment, a student has earned 100% of the federal funds awarded for the period. The percentage earned will be calculated based on the following schedule: Week 1 6 percent • other classes, or Does not receive funds for the period in question. (Students whose parents received a PLUS Loan are considered to have received funds and so are covered for the refund and repayment requirements.) Repayments If a student’s non-instructional educational expenses (allowances as prescribed below) incurred up to the time of withdrawal exceed the amount of cash disbursement, the student does not owe a repayment. If cash disbursed exceeds the non-instructional costs of education incurred up to the time of withdrawal, the student does owe a repayment. This repayment is the difference between costs incurred and the actual cash refund received. Non-instructional expenses are determined by calculating the percentage of room, board, books, supplies, travel, and personal expenses incurred during the portion of the term a student is enrolled. Off-campus board and personal expenses are prorated on a weekly basis. There is no proration of on-campus room charges. A percentage of books, supplies, and travel costs is allowed based on length of enrollment. Student Aid Accounts to be Refunded and Repaid Once the amounts to be refunded and/or repaid are determined, the aid programs from which the student received funds will be reimbursed in the following order: 1. Federal Direct/Stafford loans 2. Federal Perkins loans 3. Federal PLUS loans received on behalf of the student 4. Federal Pell Grants 5. Federal SEOG Grants 6. Other Title IV programs 7. Other federal, state, private, or institutional student financial assistance received by the student for which refunds are required 8. The student Week 2 12 percent Week 3 18 percent Week 4 25 percent Week 5 31 percent Week 6 37 percent Week 7 43 percent Week 8 50 percent Week 9 56 percent Other Assistance Week 10 60 percent Week 11-16 100 percent Vocational Rehabilitation Scholarships: This program provides for education and training if the student has a physical or mental disability that is a substantial handicap to employment and if there exists reasonable expectation that vocational rehabilitation services may lead to gainful employment. Additional information is available through the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation in the student’s home state. For example, if a student has received $1,000 in Federal Financial Aid and withdraws within the first week of classes, that student will receive 6 percent ($60) of the aid award applied to total charges. The remaining $940 will be returned to the Federal Financial Aid programs in the following order: 1. Unsubsidized Student Loans 2. Subsidized Student Loans 3. Perkins Loans 4. PLUS Loans/Graduate PLUS Loans 5. Federal Grants 6. Other Assistance under Title IV The refund and repayment provisions mandated by the federal government for federal aid recipients apply when a student receives financial aid funds and withdraws, drops out, takes an unapproved leave of absence, fails to return from an approved leave of absence, is expelled, or otherwise fails to complete the period of enrollment for which he or she was charged. The refund and repayment requirements DO NOT APPLY to a student who: • Withdraws, drops out, or is expelled before his or her first day of class, or • Withdraws from some classes, but continues to be enrolled in 18 College Budget Plans: The Citadel Tuition Payment Plan (CTPP) allows families to finance the cost of Tuition, Auxiliary Fees (Housing/Room/Board) and OneCard. The plan is offered as a service to the student, allowing the student to finance education and related costs over the period of a semester. To calculate the amount to include in the plan, students should subtract financial aid and any scholarships from their balance- and only place their uncovered expenses in the payment pan. There is a $50 enrollment fee per term. The plan is for 5 equal payments. Enrollment deadlines can be found on the Treasurer’s web page at www.citadel.edu\treasurer. Veterans Services: Services are administered under the umbrella of student financial aid at The Citadel. Veteran services are intended to meet the needs of students receiving benefits under the following programs: • Ch. 30—Montgomery GI Bill—Active Duty, Veterans CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �• • • • Ch. 31—Vocational Rehabilitation Ch. 33—Post 9-11 GI Bill Ch. 35—Dependents’ Educational Assistance Program Ch. 1606—Montgomery GI Bill—Selected Reserve Due to the complexity of VA educational benefits, students are encouraged to contact The Citadel’s Veterans Services Office well in advance of the beginning of the semester. Students who have already applied for benefits should submit a copy of their Department of Veterans Affairs Certificate Eligibility. In compliance with federal regulations, students are required to follow guidelines set by the Department of Veterans Affairs. VA Certification Policies and Procedures can be found on The Citadel’s website under Veterans Services. Staff can be reached at 843-9539824 or email at va_benefits@citadel.edu. Refunds No fees are refunded after the published drop deadline. This date is usually following two class meetings and is published in the term calendar at http://www.my.citadel.edu/root/registrar-importantdates. To obtain the appropriate refund, a student must drop the course via Lesesne Gateway. The Citadel Graduate College may authorize a refund for extenuating circumstances after the scheduled refund date if a formal appeal is made in writing. Extenuating circumstances are defined as a death in immediate family, serious medical issues, or military deployment. Registration, technology, infrastructure, and application fees are not refundable. Academic Regulations and Procedures Application for Resident Status for Tuition and Fee Purposes Any student or prospective student who is uncertain about payment of in-state tuition and fees has the responsibility of securing a ruling from The Citadel by providing all relevant information on special application forms. These forms can be obtained from the Office of the Registrar, Bond Hall, Room 173, or online at http://www.citadel.edu/registrar/forms/. Completed forms must be returned to that office at least four to six weeks prior to registration for any semester or summer term for which the student is attempting to qualify for in-state tuition and fee rate. Requirements for Graduation In addition to the program requirements, the following requirements must be met for graduation. The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar is an online professional development seminar in which graduate students at The Citadel learn about principled leadership and the institution’s core values – honor, duty, and respect. Participants focus on what it means to be a member of The Citadel community, and the application of core values as a guiding feature of one’s place in life and in leadership within an organization. Beginning Fall 2013, all degree-seeking students entering The Citadel Graduate College are required to register for and complete The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar. Beginning in Fall 2017, all graduate degree-seeking and certificate students entering The Citadel Graduate College are required to register for and complete The Citadel Principled Leadership Seminar. The seminar is taught by The Citadel’s Department of Leadership Studies. Students must register for the seminar via Lesesne Gateway and complete the course during their first semester of enrollment. Darkness to Light Training The Citadel is the first college in the country to enter into an agreement with the Darkness to Light Foundation for campus- wide training for all faculty, staff, and students on child sexual abuse. This “Stewards of Children” training program assists the college in creating policies and programs to protect children and provides faculty, staff, and students with insight into how to recognize potential problems and the appropriate ways to respond should a concern be raised about a child. The Citadel’s goal is 100% compliance, meaning all faculty, staff, and students will be required to either participate in the training or demonstrate proof that they received it elsewhere. Beginning in Fall 2014, all non-cadet students (day veteran, active duty, graduate students including those enrolled in graduate certificates and all evening undergraduate students) who enroll in Citadel course(s) are required to successfully complete D2L CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 19 �training in their first semester on campus. Students who have completed D2L training in the last five years need only provide a copy of their certificate of completion by uploading it through the Principled Leadership Seminar course – LDRS 500. An online version of the course is available for all CGC students. Please contact the CGC office for more information. Students who do not complete the training will not be allowed to register for the next semester until proof of completion is presented to the CGC office. Dress Code Policy for Veteran Students and Fifth-Year Students All veteran students and fifth year cadets are expected to be cleanly and neatly dressed. This is particularly important as they serve as role models for other students on campus. Proper dress is business casual clothing (e.g., khaki pants or denim jeans and a collared shirt/polo shirt for males and slacks/skirt and blouse for females). Jeans that are frayed, patched, or contain holes are unacceptable. Additionally, shoes must be worn at all times. Specific types of clothing (e.g., frayed or torn jeans, jean shorts, running shorts, PT shorts, cut-off shorts, warm-up clothes, bathing suits, beach coverups, tank tops, halter tops, tube tops, flip flop shoes, etc.) are not proper attire for the classroom, library, or other academic areas. During the summer sessions, Faculty and staff follow a more relaxed dress code, and a similar approach to the dress code will apply to students. Additional Dress Code requirements apply primarily to cadets with Day Student Status: 1. Regulations pertaining to body piercing and tattoos are the same as those for members of the Corps of Cadets. 2. A broken uniform is unattractive anywhere, but it is especially unsuited for a military college campus or classroom. Portions of cadet uniforms are not, therefore, to be worn by non-cadets or cadets with Day Student Status. 3. Students’ hair (males and females) will be neatly trimmed and styled, as will mustaches and sideburns, if applicable. 4. Students will wear business attire when members of the Corps of Cadets are required to appear in full dress or white uniforms. For students who violate these dress code rules, and who are not in compliance with minimal standards for personal appearance, the following protocols will apply: 1. For a first offense, a student will be required, upon direction of a campus authority, to leave campus until such discrepancies are corrected. 2. For a second offense, a student who fails to adhere to the dress code policy will be required to meet with the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management shortly after the violation occurs. In this meeting, the student will be educated on the policy and asked to sign a formal, written agreement of future compliance with the dress code. The Associate Provost has the option of applying additional sanctions should it be deemed necessary to gain compliance. 3. Additional violations of the dress code will result in progressively punitive measures and will include a formal statement of compliance by the student agreeing to adhere to the dress code policy. 20 The Citadel Non-Cadet Honor Code Honor Code Statement: It is the responsibility of all community members to promote, abide by, and enforce the following honor code: “A Citadel non-cadet student (e.g. graduate, evening undergraduate, or veteran) does not lie, cheat, steal, nor tolerate those who do.” It is the responsibility of all Citadel community members to promote, abide by, and enforce the following honor code. Every non-cadet student (which includes evening undergraduates, graduate students, day veterans, fifth-year students, and all active duty students) must uphold the honor code as well as The Citadel’s Core Values of Honor, Duty, and Respect. Each student is required to represent him or herself honestly in all college business matters and on all documents. Each student does his or her own work and refrains from any form of academic dishonesty, including plagiarism and cheating. In personal conduct, each student acts in a professional and ethical manner and refrains from any form of disrespectful behavior to any other member of The Citadel community. In addition to students enrolled in degree programs and certificates, or as part of a joint program with other institutions, this honor code is also applicable to transient students and cadets who enroll in courses during the summer. This honor code will go into effect for all new students beginning Fall 2015. An awareness campaign will commence in Spring 2015 and information about the non-cadet honor code will be posted on the Graduate College website and the website for the Office of Military and Veterans Affairs, as well as included as part of the orientation packets for new students. Cadets will be made aware of the honor code as it relates to summer terms through communication with the Office of Academic Affairs and the Commandant’s Office. Definition of Terms: In general, four types of conduct fall under the honor code: lying, cheating, stealing, and the toleration of those who engage in any of these activities. 1) Lying. Defined as any attempt to deceive, falsify, or misrepresent the truth in any matter involving college business. This includes but is not limited to matters involving academic standing, participation in courses, financial information, or any false statements to faculty, staff, administrators, or university officials. 2) Cheating. Defined as taking or attempting to take, or otherwise procure intellectual property in an unauthorized manner; selling, giving, lending, or furnishing to any unauthorized person by a student enrolled in that course, material which can be shown to contain the questions or answers to any exam from any course offered at The Citadel. Academic Dishonesty also includes plagiarism, including fabricating, forging, or falsifying laboratory results or reports, or using work from other courses or from previous assignments for a current class. The term cheating includes, but is not limited to: 1) the use of sources beyond those authorized by the instructor for written assignments; 2) the use of any unauthorized assistance in taking exams or quizzes; 3) the unauthorized acquisition of tests or other CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �academic material belonging to a faculty or staff member or a student. The term plagiarism includes, but is not limited to, the use of published or unpublished work of another person without full and clear acknowledgement. It also includes the unacknowledged use of materials prepared by another person or agency engaged in the selling of term papers or other academic material. 3) Stealing. Defined as taking without authority, personal, government, or college property. 4) Toleration. Defined as the failure to report a case of lying, cheating, or stealing as defined above to the proper Honor Council authorities. Honor Council Composition: Faculty: Six members; one from each Academic School and one from the Library. Honor Council members are appointed by Graduate Council and serve three-year terms. Students: Two members appointed by The Citadel Student Government Association. Chair: A faculty member elected by members of the Council. Calls meetings, ensures procedures are followed, and is non-voting but casts the deciding vote in the event of a tie. Training of Honor Council Members: All members are required to participate in a workshop/training seminar on Citadel Honor Code and procedures. Note: this training should be similar in nature to what cadet honor court members receive on procedures and content. Procedures: Any student, faculty member, or administrator may charge a student with an honor code violation. All accused students participating in Honor Council hearings are guaranteed the following rights during a hearing: 1. The right to a representative. In all college hearings and boards in which a student faces suspension, dismissal or expulsion, the student may be represented by up to two student representatives. Representatives must be students in the same academic program as the student facing disciplinary action, i.e., graduate students or evening undergraduate students may not serve as representatives for cadets, nor may cadets serve as representatives for graduate or evening undergraduate students. Representatives may participate in the board or hearing, including speaking directly to the board or hearing officer and questioning witnesses. 2. The right to question all witnesses. In cases where the complainant is an alleged victim, accommodations may be made. 3. The right to present evidence and call witnesses. 4. The right to decline making any statements or answering questions. In doing so, the Council may draw inferences, either positively or negatively, from such a refusal. 5. The right to an audio copy of the hearing upon written request. 6. The right to appeal the decision of the Honor Council. Honor Council Hearing Procedural Guidelines: All student conduct hearings shall be conducted according to the following guidelines except as provided below: 1. 2. Hearings will be conducted in private. The complainant, accused student, and their representatives, if any, shall be allowed to attend the entire portion of the hearing at which information is received (excluding deliberations). Admission of any other person to the hearing shall be at the discretion of the Honor Council Chair. 3. In hearings involving more than one accused student, the Honor Council Chair, at his or her discretion, may permit the hearings concerning each student to be conducted either separately or jointly. 4. The complainant and the accused student have the right to be assisted by a representative of his or her choosing. Representatives must be students in the same academic program as the student facing disciplinary action, i.e., graduate students or evening undergraduate students may not serve as representatives for cadets, nor may cadets serve as representatives for graduate or evening undergraduate students. Representatives may participate in the board or hearing, including speaking directly to the board or hearing officer and questioning witnesses. 5. The complainant and the accused student may arrange for witnesses to present pertinent information to the hearing. Witnesses will provide information to and answer questions from the Honor Council. 6. Pertinent records, exhibits, and written statements may be accepted as information for consideration during the hearing at the discretion of the Honor Council Chair. 7. All procedural questions are subject to the final decision of the Honor Council Chair. 8. After the portion of the hearing concludes in which all pertinent information has been received, the Honor Council shall determine whether the accused student is in violation of the Non-Cadet Honor Code. 9. The determination shall be made on the basis of a preponderance of the evidence--whether it is more likely than not that the accused student violated the Honor Code. Formal rules or process, procedure, and/or technical rules of evidence, such as those applied in criminal or civil court, are not used in these proceedings. 10. There shall be a single audio recording of all student conduct hearings (not including deliberations). Deliberations should not be recorded. The record shall be the property of The Citadel. If an accused student, with notice, does not appear for a hearing, the information in support of the charges shall be presented and considered even if the accused student is not present. Hearing Protocol: I. Introductions of the participants in the hearing II. Chair or Administrator reviews hearing process and procedures III. Chair or Administrator confirms charges and statements of responsibility IV. Complainant/university calls witnesses A. Complainant asks questions of witnesses B. Board/Administrator asks questions of witnesses C. Accused student asks questions of witnesses D. All parties have opportunity to ask any additional questions V. Accused student calls witnesses A. Accused student asks questions of witnesses B. Board/Administrator asks questions of witnesses C. Complainant asks questions of witnesses VI. All parties have opportunity to ask any additional questions to CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 21 �accused student and/or complainant VII. Deliberations by Board - Student will be notified of the decision in writing via university e-mail, with a hardcopy sent by registered mail, within three business days. Range of Sanctions: Note: This list is not exhaustive and may be modified to meet particular circumstances in any given case. All sanctions become a part of student’s official record. Final appeals of Honor Council rulings are made to the President. The procedure for appeals is found in the campus policies and procedures manual. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Expulsion—Permanent forced withdrawal from The Citadel. Although this may be imposed as a first offense for serious cases, it is usually imposed after other disciplinary methods have not achieved desired results. In all cases in which expulsion is appropriate, the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management will submit documentation and findings to the President of the college for final disposition. The President may elect, at his discretion, to impose another penalty. The student will be notified of the President’s decision, and that decision is final. A student’s suspension or expulsion will be noted on his or her transcripts. Dismissal—Forced withdrawal from The Citadel for two semesters. Suspension—Forced withdrawal from The Citadel for one semester. In instances of both dismissal and suspension, students may not visit campus or participate in any campusrelated activities. An exception to this rule is if the student is seeking clarification of his or her academic record and a physical visit to campus is required. Reprimand—Written notice to student that behavior was unacceptable and that further issues could result in suspension or expulsion. Restriction—Loss of privileges including but not limited to parking on campus, access to university facilities, etc. Course Withdrawal—From the course in which the offense occurred. Grade Change—Only for cases involving academic integrity. Such a sanction must be approved by the Provost or the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Restitution—Reimbursement for physical damages or loss of property. Appeals: Grounds. An appeal does not provide a second forum in which to present the case. Appeals deal only with how a decision has been reached and not with the decision itself. The following are the exclusive grounds for all disciplinary and academic appeals: 1. 2. That the hearing officer or board failed to provide due process; That significant information has been discovered since the board or hearing, which would probably change the result, but which could not, in the exercise of due diligence, have been presented to the board or hearing. A review by the President is not considered an entitlement but is within the scope of authority of the President. This is the final appeal at the institution and if applicable, all imposed sanctions are implemented after the President issues his decision. 22 Academic Standards All students are expected to maintain high academic standards. In addition to the grade point average requirements for satisfying degree standards, the following policies set minimum guidelines for all graduate programs. Specific programs may establish more rigorous criteria for satisfactory progress. Students should carefully study the sections of this catalog pertinent to their degree program for statements about expectations, which may exceed these minimal criteria. Any grade of “C” (ie. “C”, “C+”) is a warning that the individual is not performing at the level expected of graduate students; a grade of “F” is a clear statement of inadequate performance. Either a “C” or “F” grade calls into question the expectation of reasonable progress toward the degree. In order to maintain appropriate academic quality, the following policy applies to students enrolled at The Citadel: 1. 2. 3. If a student receives a grade of “F” in a graduate course, regardless of his or her status, the student will be terminated from the program. The student may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement. If the student is granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for that term. If a student receives seven (7) or more credit hours of graduate course work with a grade of “C”or “C+” regardless of his or her status, the student will be terminated from the program. The student may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement in the program. If a student is granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for that term. Any student admitted to a graduate program who has earned or attempted twelve (12) hours of graduate credit must have a cumulative GPR of 3.0 or higher to continue in the program. If a student’s GPR falls below a 3.0 any time after the completion of twelve (12) hours of graduate credit, the student must improve his/her GPR to a minimum 3.0 by the time he/she has completed nine (9) additional graduate credit hours. If the student achieves a minimum 3.0 while completing these nine (9) additional graduate credit hours, the standard of maintaining a 3.0 GPR begins again. Some programs have stricter program requirements. Check with your program advisor for the standards for your program. Students who have been terminated from their program may appeal in writing to his or her Dean for reinstatement. If the student is granted reinstatement status before the end of the drop/add period for the next academic term, he or she may register for that term. Generally, a student can expect to receive a decision on an appeal within 2 weeks or 10 working days. Students are encouraged to provide a courtesy copy of grievances and appeals to the CGC for record. Catalog of Record The catalog bearing the number of the academic year in which the student enters The Citadel will be his or her catalog of record for academic program requirements. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �Class Attendance Regular attendance is required of all CGC students, and the attendance record maintained by the instructor is official. In case of absences due to illness or other circumstances beyond their control, students should notify the instructor as soon as possible. A student who misses more than 20% of the scheduled class meetings may be awarded a grade of “F” for excessive absences. Online Course Attendance Policy Distance education (online) students are subject to The Citadel’s attendance policy. Attendance in a distance education (online) course is defined by activate participation. Logging into CitLearn does not qualify as sufficient evidence of attending, as per federal financial aid guidelines, and nonattendance may affect financial aid and/or veteran’s benefits. Completion of tests, submission/completion of assignments, and participation in discussion forums are activities used to document enrollment. Students who have not documented enrollment and participation by the withdrawal period will be administratively dropped from the roll as “never attended.” Comprehensive Examinations The Citadel graduate programs vary in their exit requirements. While all degree programs require at least a 3.0 cumulative GPR (3.25 for Ed.S.) for graduation, some have an exit examination or exit project requirement. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of these standards. Confidentiality of Student Records The Citadel maintains and discloses information from student records in accordance with the provisions of the “Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974” (FERPA), as amended. This law requires that educational institutions maintain the confidentiality of student educational records. The Citadel accords its students all rights under the law. FERPA coverage applies to all educational records that contain a student’s name, social security number, or other personally identifiable information, in whatever medium, to include electronic form. No one outside of The Citadel shall have access to nor will the institution disclose any information from a student’s educational records without the written consent of the student except in compliance with the provisions of Federal and State law. Educational records may be disclosed to personnel within the institution who have a legitimate educational interest, to parents of students who are dependents as defined by IRS standards, to persons or organizations providing students financial aid, to accrediting agencies carrying out their accreditation function, to persons in compliance with a judicial order, or in an emergency, to persons in order to protect the health or safety of the student or others. Within The Citadel community, only those members, individually or collectively, acting in the student’s educational interests are allowed access to student educational records. These members include the Board of Visitors, Faculty, and personnel in the Offices of the President, Provost and Dean of the College, Associate Provost of Academic Affairs, Associate Provost of Enrollment Management, Registrar, and Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs. Directory information about a student may be disclosed at the discretion of The Citadel without the consent of the student unless the student has notified the Registrar within two weeks of the beginning of the academic year (fall semester) that the student refuses to allow the disclosure of such information. Any student desiring to keep directory information confidential must give notice at the beginning of each academic year and the notice is valid only for that year. Course Cancellation It occasionally becomes necessary to cancel a course. The Citadel reserves the right to cancel any course for which there is insufficient enrollment. This cancellation may be done without notice. Students affected by a course cancellation will receive due consideration and notification by the department offering the course. If no other satisfactory arrangements can be made, the student will receive a complete refund of all fees paid. Degree and Certification Requirements Specific requirements are detailed in the appropriate sections of the catalog. The general requirements include completing all specific program requirements and coursework while maintaining at least a “B” (3.0) GPA. Students should check the specific requirements of the program in which they are enrolled. State certification requirements are determined by external agencies over which The Citadel has no control. It is the student’s responsibility to meet these requirements, which are subject to legislative change. Advisors will assist students in staying current with these requirements and adjusting programs of study to reflect any change. Earning a Second Master’s Degree The College permits a student to earn a second Citadel master’s degree in a different program as long as no more than twelve credit hours in common course requirements are applied to the second master’s degree. General Conduct Policy for Students Responsibility for professional conduct rests with students as adult individuals and as members of The Citadel community. CGC students are expected to conduct themselves as responsible adults. All members of the campus community are expected to use reasonable judgement in all aspects of campus life and activity and to show due concern for the welfare and rights of others. Students are expected to adhere to all federal, state, and local laws. The Citadel protects freedom of action and speech, so long as the exercise of this freedom is not of an inflammatory or demeaning nature and does not interfere with the operation of the College. The Citadel’s Conduct Policy prohibits the possession of drugs, destruction of property, making false statements of emergency situations, physical or verbal abuse, or harassment of any sort. Students who violate the rules and regulations of The Citadel are subject to expulsion or lesser sanctions. These rules and regulations are published in “Regulations for Non-Cadet Students for Fall and CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 23 �Spring Semester And All Students, Including Cadets, for Maymester or Summer School,” which can be found online at: http://www.citadel.edu/root/images/ BOV/Policies/03-provost/3107-regulations-for-non-cadets.pdf. The Provost or his designee is responsible for administering the disciplinary conduct code for CGC students unless they reside in the barracks during Maymester and Summer School, in which case the commandant is responsible for discipline. Grades Only letter grades are given to evaluate a student’s progress. No numerical symbol or percentage is fixed or assigned to the equivalent of any grade. A: A grade of “A” represents work of a high quality. Four quality points are awarded for each credit hour. B+: A grade of “B+” represents above average quality work. Three and one-half quality points are awarded for each credit hour. B: A grade of “B” indicates average graduate work. Three quality points are awarded for each credit hour. C+: A grade of “C+” indicates below average graduate work and is an unsatisfactory grade. Two and one-half quality points are awarded for each credit hour. C: A grade of “C” is unsatisfactory. Two quality points are awarded for each credit hour. P: A grade of “P” indicates work of acceptable, graduate- level quality. While it signifies work of “A” or “B” level, it carries no quality points and is awarded only for designated courses such as workshops, internships, etc. F: A grade of “F” indicates that the minimum requirements have not been met. No quality points are awarded. I: A grade of “I” represents work of satisfactory quality incomplete for authorized reasons. (See section below.) W: A grade of “W” represents withdrawal from a course prior to the scheduled withdrawal deadline. No quality points are associated with the “W”, and there is no academic penalty for the student. IP: A grade of “IP” assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. The grade of “IP” must be removed after two full semesters, or the “IP” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP.” Grade of “I” Incomplete “I” grades must be made up during the term following the recording of the grade. A grade of “I” received in the fall term must be made up by the end of the following spring term. A grade of “I” received in either the spring or summer term must be made up by the end of the following fall term. An extension of time not to exceed one additional term may be authorized for extenuating circumstances by the appropriate dean. Grades not made up within the authorized time limit will convert to a grade of “F,” and such courses will be included in calculating the GPR. 24 Cumulative Grade-Point Ratio In addition to completing all specific program requirements, in order to remain in good academic standing, The Citadel Graduate College requires students to maintain a 3.0 GPA. Failure to maintain this GPA results in dismissal from that program. Should a student be enrolled in multiple programs or certificates, a cumulative GPA is not sufficiently accurate in determining a student’s academic standing. In such cases, the standard used to determine their eligibility is the student’s GPA in that particular program, not their cumulative GPA. Graduation The Citadel Graduate College is committed to making the graduation/ commencement experience a special one for its students. The following policy outlines the procedures for applying to graduate and participation in the annual CGC commencement ceremony. It is each student’s responsibility to apply to graduate. There are three graduation dates each calendar year. There is a May graduation date at the end of the Spring period of instruction, an August graduation date at the end of the Summer period of instruction, and a December graduation date at the end of the Fall semester period of instruction. There is one commencement ceremony each calendar year, in May, following the Spring semester. Graduation 1. Applications for graduation are available on Lesesne Gateway, via the Student Tab. Failure to apply by the deadline incurs a late fee, may delay receipt of the diploma, and may prevent the student from participating in the commencement ceremony. 2. The graduation date is the term in which the student completes all requirements. An incomplete grade is a delay in the completion of a requirement, and the posting of the final grade determines the completion of that requirement. 3. Do not select a graduation date until you plan to meet all requirements by that date as applications are processed and diplomas are ordered based on your graduation application. If the graduation date submitted is not met, a new application will be required along with applicable fee, and the diploma will need to be reordered. 4. To be recommended for a degree, students must meet all admission requirements and satisfactorily complete the program requirements and non-program requirements for the degree. Students must be free from all financial indebtedness to The Citadel. 5. Students may apply for graduation and participate in commencement during the academic year in which they are completing their degree requirements. Participation in the CGC Commencement Ceremony 1. Students must indicate on their application for graduation they intend to participate in commencement ceremonies. If a student does not confirm intent, they will not be permitted to participate in the ceremony. 2. All grade-point average (GPA) requirements have been met. That is, the cumulative and major grade-point averages for undergraduate students must be at least 2.000. For undergraduate Education majors, the cumulative and professional education grade-point averages must be a 2.750. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Courses used to calculate the grade point ratio in the major can be found in the degree program requirements. The cumulative grade-point averages for graduate students must be at least 3.000. Evening undergraduate students must be no more than 15 credit hours short of meeting degree requirements. Graduate students must be no more than 9 credit hours short of meeting degree requirements. Students must properly wear official regalia for the commencement ceremony. Students who complete all coursework and degree requirements during the summer session following that year’s commencement exercises may participate in that ceremony or can decide to participate in the commencement ceremony the following year. In some cases, students have completed their program requirements but are unable to participate in the commencement ceremony during the year they intended to graduate (e.g. military deployment, career relocation, or illness). In such cases, students may apply to graduate and participate in the next year’s commencement ceremony. Students exceeding this one year of eligibility will not be allowed to participate in the CGC commencement ceremony. Students who have earned a second master’s degree within the same academic year will be recognized for both programs of study. Children, parents, step-parents, or grandparents who are either graduates of the Corps of Cadets, the Veterans Program, or The Citadel Graduate College may present diplomas to their children, parents, step-parents, grandchildren or grandparents at the CGC commencement ceremony. The graduate must provide the CGC with their full name, relationship, and graduation year before the stated deadline and for approval. Intellectual Property Policy Preamble The Citadel has among its primary purposes teaching, research, and the expansion and dissemination of knowledge. Products of these endeavors include the development and use of intellectual property. It is the policy of the College that its faculty, staff, and students carry out their scholarly work in an open and free atmosphere that encourages publication and creation of such works without constraint but consistent with applicable laws and College policy. This policy will be in accord with the guidelines and criteria published in The American Association of University Professors’ “Statement of Copyright” (Policy Documents and Reports. Ninth Edition, 2001, or subsequent editions). Intellectual Property Ownership of intellectual property will reside with the originator, whether a member of the faculty, staff, or a student, unless: (a) the property is created at the specific direction of the College; or (b) the originator has made exceptional use of College resources in creating it. At the time when the work is directed by the College or at the time when the College makes exceptional resources available to the originator of intellectual property, the Provost and the originator will together determine ownership and will negotiate a written agreement concerning that property. These determinations will be made on a case-by-case basis. Nondiscrimination Policy The Citadel is committed to providing equal opportunities to men and women students in all campus programs, including intercollegiate athletics, in order to make The Citadel the best coeducational college in America. This commitment requires that no discrimination shall occur in our admissions policies, academic programs or services, as well as employment practices on the basis of sex, race, color, religion or national origin. This policy is in accordance with Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 as amended. Inquiries concerning the application of Title IX and other nondiscrimination laws may be referred to The Citadel’s Affirmative Action Officer and Title IX Coordinator, Bond Hall, Room 369, 171 Moultrie Street, Charleston, South Carolina, 29409, 843-953-6989, or the Assistant Secretary of Education, Civil Rights Division, US Department of Education, Washington, DC 20201-2516. Repeating a Course Courses may be repeated only under the following circumstances: • No courses may be repeated once a grade of “B” or higher has been earned. • If a class in which a “C+” or “C” was earned is repeated, it may be repeated only one time. • If a course is repeated, the last grade of record is used to determine whether course requirements for graduation have been met. • The hours may be used only once toward graduation. • All courses, previously passed or repeated, will be figured in the student’s GPR. No grade previously recorded is removed from the transcript. Satisfactory Progress and Length of Academic Program Unless otherwise stated, students are expected to complete all degree requirements within a six (6) year period from the time of registration for the first graduate course in that program. Students enrolled in the Ed.S. in School Psychology program have seven (7) years to complete the degree. Students enrolled in the M.A. in Psychology: Clinical Counseling degree program have a five (5) year limit. Requests for an extension must be initiated by the student to the appropriate Department Head, who is responsible for notifying the student of the decision. Department Heads will forward recommendations through the program extension form, provided by the Office of the Registrar, to their appropriate academic dean. Extension approvals must be on file in the Registrar’s Office prior to application for graduation. If an extension is granted, a probationary extension for one year is authorized. At the completion of that year, an additional extension may be authorized (if necessary) contingent upon the student having made adequate progress. “Adequate Progress” is defined as completing graduate work in two of the three semesters (summer session counting as a semester) of the year of probation. An average CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 25 �grade of “B” (3.0) for that year is also required. At all levels, the department or school will be responsible for oversight of student progress and initiation of action related to unsatisfactory progress. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of courses that will not meet graduation time lines for satisfactory progress. Advisors should assist students with this calculation. responsible for fulfilling them. If, at the end of a student’s course of study, the requirements for graduation have not been satisfied, the degree will not be granted. For this reason, it is important for each student to be acquainted with all academic, financial, and administrative requirements within the prescribed deadlines and time limits. Dining Student Academic Grievances The academic grievance process of the college is reserved for the most serious alleged offenses. These matters deal not with differences of opinion, but with violations of due process; denial of individual rights; or unequal treatment/ discrimination based on sex, race, color, or national origin. Students who feel that they have an academic grievance are directed first to confer with the instructor or other individual(s) involved. Where this does not result in satisfaction or if this step is not feasible, the student should present the grievance in writing to the lowest appropriate level not involved in the grievance, department head or Dean. If the student does not receive a response within a reasonable period of time, normally considered two weeks, a copy of the written grievance may be provided to the next higher academic level not previously involved in the grievance, i.e. the department head or the school Dean, with a request for assistance in resolving the grievance. A final appeal for satisfaction may be made to the Provost. The purpose of this process is to permit each level of the academic level of authority to have the opportunity to resolve the grievance satisfactorily. The Graduate College does not process academic matters. However, students are encouraged to provide a courtesy copy of grievances and appeals to the CGC for record. The CGC will monitor time lines and processes for compliance with procedure and will inform the appropriate level of the academic authority if procedure is not followed. Student Appeal of Grade A student who wishes to appeal the final grade assigned in a course must first confer with the instructor of the course in which the grade was received. If this does not result in satisfaction, the student should contact the appropriate department head or Dean who will review the matter. The faculty member and the student are both obligated to provide requested relevant information to the department head or Dean. The department head or Dean will present his/her findings to the student within ten working days of being contacted. If this does not result in satisfaction, the student should contact the Provost. If deemed appropriate, the Provost will appoint a hearing board of three faculty members, with one designated as chair, and a student in good standing of the same student type as the appellant. This board shall have the authority to request testimony, hear witnesses, and study records and materials. The board shall forward its findings and recommendations to the Provost, who shall decide the case. The decision of the Provost is final. Student Responsibility The College and departments establish certain academic requirements that must be met before a degree is granted. Advisors, department heads, and Deans are available to help the student understand and arrange to meet these requirements, but the student is 26 Coward Hall (The Citadel Dining Hall) - The price of meals for students living in the barracks is included in room and board fees. All other students, graduate or undergraduate, may obtain noon meal tickets for the established fee indicated in the online “Summer Schedule of Classes.” Meal tickets for three meals a day (breakfast and lunch only on Fridays, no meals on Saturdays or Sunday) are also available to all interested students not living in the barracks. Individual meal tickets will not be sold. All students may purchase snacks and light meals in the food court in Mark Clark Hall. Transcript A transcript is a confidential document and is released only when students make a request online at www.citadel.edu/root/registrartranscripts. The transcript fee is based on the method of delivery. Transcripts can be sent electronically, mailed, or picked up in the Registrar’s Office. An official college transcript is one that is sent directly from The Citadel to the requestor. It bears the college seal, along with a date and official signature. Most colleges require the official record. Transcripts sent from other colleges to The Citadel become the property of The Citadel and cannot be issued to the student as a third party. Leave of Absence Policy There are many reasons why graduate and evening undergraduate students could miss courses in a given academic year. These include medical reasons, military deployment, temporary changes in job status, or other reasons. In an effort to better identify students in these situations, along with providing a mechanism that grants a respite from the time limits for degree completion, a leave of absence policy has been created. This policy also excludes students who have not enrolled in courses in a given semester. Since they will be recognized as “on leave,” these students will not be included in the list of students eligible to be contacted by Graduate College staff. The following outlines the parameters of The Citadel Graduate College’s Leave of Absence Policy. Leave Of Absence Request Students who intend to take a pause from enrolling in courses for up to three semesters in a given academic year can communicate this to the Office of the Registrar through an online web form, available at http://www.citadel.edu/registrar-forms. Students may request a leave of absence for up to three semesters in an academic year (including summer, which constitutes a single term). Students with an approved leave of absence need not reapply for admission to the Graduate College unless the leave extends beyond three semesters in a given academic year. In such cases, they must request to reactivate their student record for their program of study using the form available on the Registrar’s Office webpage mentioned above. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �A leave of absence request should normally occur prior to the drop/add date. If the student’s request is made after these deadlines, a reasonable and compelling explanation for the delay must accompany the request. In such cases, supporting documentation (e.g. medical, mental health, deployment, temporary job transfer) should be provided with the request. The decision to grant the leave of absence is at the discretion of the Associate Provost of Enrollment Management. Students who request a leave of absence after the drop/add date during the semester may be responsible for at least a portion of the tuition for the classes in which they are enrolled. In such cases, students should consult with the Treasurer’s Office as well as the Office of Financial Aid to determine if their time away from campus impacts their student loan eligibility. Citadel gates are required to have a parking tag. The tags are obtained in person in the Public Safety Office after paying the fee in the Treasurer’s Office or by paying the fees in the public safety office. The fee for the parking tag is published in the “Schedule of Classes” online at www.citadel.edu. Very limited parking is available for motorcycles on a first-come, first-served basis just outside the Hagood gate at the end of Huger Street. All motorcycles must have a Citadel parking tag. Two and three wheeled motorized vehicles may not be operated on campus. Recreation Campus recreational facilities are available to students enrolled in classes. These facilities include the Deas Hall weight room, racquetball courts, swimming pool, gymnasium, tennis courts, track, boating center, and The Citadel Beach House located on the Isle of Palms. Students must show The Citadel identification card to use these facilities. Student Services Student Success Center The Citadel’s Student Success Center provides a wide range of academic support services. Included among these are the enhancement of writing, mathematical, and reading skills; the general improvement of academic performance in all subject areas; and an emphasis on retention throughout The Citadel’s academic community. Cadets and non-cadets have access to the Center. In addition to individual and small-group tutorials held in the Center, the staff conducts requested workshops for both graduate and undergraduate classes. Student Identification Cards Maymester and Summer School students attending on-campus courses may obtain a Citadel identification card. The identification cards are obtained in Bond 244. This card is necessary for using The Citadel and area consortium libraries. In all of its activities, the Center strives to assure that its efforts are consistent not only with the mission statement of The Citadel, but also with the objectives of the academic departments and specific graduate programs. Although there may be an occasional exceptional situation in which it is appropriate to restrict the nature of the assistance that may be offered by the Center (e.g., because of specific program accreditation issues that might impact, say, a particular assignment), all students are encouraged to take advantage of the resources offered by the Student Success Center. CGC Class Ring All CGC students graduating from degree programs are eligible for the CGC Class ring. CGC students may order their ring upon completion of all but the final two semesters of coursework/ internship and must possess an overall 2.0 GPA for undergraduate students or 3.0 GPA for graduate students. To place a class ring order, contact the Alumni Center at (843) 953-7698. The Alumni Center will verify eligibility with the CGC office. Housing Housing in barracks is available to any student enrolled in classes at The Citadel during Maymester or Summer School. However, it is not mandatory for any student to live on campus during Maymester and Summer School. The online “Schedule of Summer Classes” provides information on the cost of living in barracks housing. Parking Ample and secure parking is available on campus for all Maymester and Summer School students. All automobiles parked within The CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 27 �Specific Policies and Procedures for Evening/Online Undergraduate Programs All other CGC policies and procedures apply.

Academic classification is used by the Office of Financial Aid to determine loan eligibility. The EUGS program offers eleven undergraduate degrees: Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice; Bachelor of Arts in Intelligence and Security Studies; Bachelor of Arts in Political Science; Bachelor of Arts in Social Studies Education; Bachelor of Science in Business Administration; Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering; Bachelor of Science in Construction Engineering; Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering; Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering; Bachelor of Science in Nursing; Bachelor of Science in Tactical Strength and Conditioning. In order to be eligible to continue at The Citadel, a student must meet minimum standards regarding hours earned at The Citadel or properly transferred from another accredited institution, and an acceptable cumulative grade-point ratio must be maintained. Fulltime students, those taking at least 12 credit hours each semester, must earn at least 24 semester hours each two-semester period. Part-time students must have passed at least 50 percent of the coursework attempted in the two previous semesters and included summer sessions. If a previously passed course is repeated, the hours may be used only once toward meeting requirements for hours passed. In each of the undergraduate degree programs, a minimum of 36 of the total required credit hours must be taken at The Citadel. Credits gained through AP, CLEP, or any other “testing out” process may not be counted among those 36 credit hours. Acceptability of transfer credits is governed by the policy described under the Transfer Credits section below. Fall, spring, and summer course schedules are available online. Information on programs, classes, and fees can also be obtained from the CGC office or online. Information on financial aid is available online through the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships or by phone at (843) 953-5187. 2 plus 2 Program/Degree Completion Students who wish to earn a degree from The Citadel Evening Undergraduate Studies (EUGS) program begin their coursework at another institution and complete their degree at The Citadel. Prerequisite courses (typically freshman and sophomore level courses) are taken at regionally accredited colleges and universities and transferred to The Citadel. The EUGS program at The Citadel offers the upper-level (junior and senior level) courses, and many general education courses, which enable students to complete the program and receive a baccalaureate degree from The Citadel. All students must have at least 24 hours of college credit transferred to The Citadel prior to taking any courses at The Citadel. Academic Classifications Academic Criteria for Continuance The student must also meet the grade-point ratio (GPR) requirement for the appropriate category of credit hours of record as listed in the table below. In determining the category for credit hours of record, hours transferred into The Citadel from other institutions are included as credit hours of record. The column “Quality Hours Plus Transfer Hours” includes: 1. All credit attempted for which a grade of “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “F” was received at The Citadel, 2. Course work transferred from other colleges, and 3. Courses taken on a Pass-Fail basis. Quality Hours Grade-Point Ratio Grade-Point Ratio Plus Transfer & for Continuance for Continuance Pass/Fail Hours (on probation) (without probation) 0-39 1.100 1.300 40-69 1.400 1.600 70-99 1.700 1.800 100 & above 1.900 2.000 This table shows the minimum academic progress students must make toward attaining the minimum acceptable overall grade-point ratio of 2.000 as they approach the total number of hours required in the course of study of their selected major. For the purpose of determining academic probation, criteria for continuance, dean’s list, graduation, and other academic matters, grade-point ratios will not be rounded. Undergraduate students’ academic classification is based strictly on earned credit hours. The table below reflects the required number of earned credit hours for each designated academic classification. 28 CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �Admission Policy The CGC permits participation by evening undergraduate students in non-degree status as well as those who are pursuing an undergraduate degree. Students must have completed 24 credit hours and maintained a minimum 2.0 GPA to be considered for admission. Every applicant for a bachelor’s degree must submit the following to the CGC office: 1. 2. 3. 4. Completed evening undergraduate application. Official transcripts sent directly from all regionally accredited colleges attended. An official TOEFL score if English is not the native language. Additional documentation may be requested for verification of U.S. citizenship. Readmission Policy A student who is discharged for academic reasons for the first time may apply for readmission after being out of school for one semester. Summer school does not constitute a semester in this instance. Students who are discharged for academic or disciplinary reasons may not, during the period of discharge, take courses for transfer to The Citadel. The deadline for the receipt of an application for readmission for Maymester and summer School is March 1st, for the spring term is October 1st, and for the fall term is June 1st. Non-degree seeking undergraduate students are those who do not intend to become degree seeking students. While these students are allowed to take undergraduate courses at The Citadel under the following conditions, they cannot use these courses as a way of circumventing standard CGC admissions policy through the EUGS program. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Students who provide documentation of having graduated from an accredited high school or having completed the General Education Development (GED) examination may register for up to 15 credit hours of course work for personal or professional development only. South Carolina residents over the age of 60 who meet degree or non-degree admissions requirements may register for courses on a space-available basis with no credit hours fee charged. All other fees must be paid. High school seniors may be permitted to register for a maximum of two courses and the associated labs in the CGC under specialized programs, such as the Citadel’s Teacher Cadet Program on the basis of written recommendation from their high school guidance counselor or principal. Undergraduate transient students who wish to enroll in course work for transfer to another institution may be asked to present evidence they have met any course prerequisites. A cadet who has been expelled from The Citadel is not eligible to attend any class at The Citadel—day, evening, or summer. A cadet who has been suspended or dismissed is not eligible to attend any class at The Citadel—day, evening, or summer— until accepted for readmission to the College. Catalog of Record When a student is readmitted after an absence of at least three academic semesters (summer sessions will not be considered as semesters for this purpose), the catalog bearing the number of the academic year in which the student is readmitted will be the catalog of record for matters of academic policy and graduation requirements. EUGS 101 Introduction to The Citadel Experience All EUGS students must complete EUGS 101 in their first semester at The Citadel. This one-credit-hour online introductory course provides an overview of services offered by The Citadel as well as an overview of The Citadel’s three core values of honor, duty, and respect. All students are also encouraged to visit the Orientation webpage to become familiar with all the services available to them. The webpage is: www.citadel.edu/root/graduatecollege-currentstudents/orientation. College Level Examination Program Through College Level Equivalency Program (CLEP) Subject Examinations, undergraduate students are permitted to earn college course credits for knowledge they have gained in certain subject areas prior to beginning their college experience. Not all CLEP examinations are accepted by The Citadel. Therefore, the student must obtain prior approval through the Office of the Registrar. CLEP credits may be earned under the following conditions: 1. The score earned must meet or exceed the current minimum score recommended by CLEP for that subject area exam. 2. The amount of credit will be determined by the scope of the material measured. 3. Because of the laboratory experience is such an integral part of the Core Curriculum Science Requirement, credit for only the lecture portion of a science course may be earned through CLEP. The lab portions must be earned through a laboratory course. 4. Completing any portion of a requirement through CLEP must be approved by the head of the Department of Modern Languages. A complete listing of courses for which credit may be awarded through CLEP is available in the Office of the Registrar. Combining Courses Courses may be combined to meet a maximum of one general elective credit requirement under the following circumstances: 1. The courses to be combined must all be offered by the same department and must be related in some way. 2. The department head or Dean for the program in which the student is majoring must provide a recommendation and rationale for combining courses. 3. The Dean responsible for the academic program in which the student is majoring must grant final approval for the combining of courses. The catalog bearing the number of the academic year in which undergraduate students enter The Citadel will be their catalog of record for matters of academic policy. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 29 �Course Overload Policy A maximum course load of 22 credit hours may be approved for either fall or spring semester. Overload (18-22 credit hours) requests must be made in writing to the academic dean. Dean’s List and Gold Star Certificates Effective Fall 2015, EUGS students who distinguish themselves academically will be formally recognized by the College. Full-time students who earn a 3.2 GPA or higher each semester (Fall or Spring) in courses at The Citadel will earn Dean’s List designation. Similarly, those who earn a 3.7 GPA or higher each semester in courses taken at The Citadel will be recognized with a Gold Star Certificate. Definitions h. Elective refers to a course that is required for graduation and may be any three-credit course offered by the College. Approved Elective refers to a course that must be selected from a list of courses provided by the individual school or department. authorized reasons (illness, injury, family emergency, etc.) cannot be completed during the current semester. To be eligible for the grade of “I,” students’ work must be satisfactory at the time they are forced to terminate participation in the course. Unsatisfactory work will result in a failing grade. The grade of “I” must be cleared during the next semester in residence or within one year, whichever comes first, or the “I” becomes an “F.” The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Students may not officially enroll in a course in which they currently have an “I.” An extension of time due to extenuating circumstances may be authorized by the Dean responsible for academic program upon the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the incomplete is the responsibility of the student. The grade of “IP” is assigned for courses in which requirements are not expected to be met in one academic term. “IP” The grade of “IP” must be removed in the next full semester, or the “IP” becomes an “F”. The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. Under extenuating circumstances, an extension may be awarded by the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs with the recommendation of the instructor. The removal of the “IP” is the responsibility of the student. Students may not enroll in a course in which they currently have an “IP”. Non-Departmental Elective refers to a course that is required for graduation and must be taken outside the major department. Students are encouraged to study areas outside their major to ensure as broad an education as is practical. Should a student fail to complete a semester or summer session for any reason, the grade in each course in which the student is then enrolled shall be determined by the individual faculty member. Students are reminded that it is expected that all coursework in the first two years of these programs be taken at other regionally accredited institutions and transferred to The Citadel. Courses at the 100- or 200-level will rarely be offered through CGC in a fall or spring semester. Some courses may be available in Maymester or Summer School at The Citadel. No numerical symbol, bracket, or percentage is assigned the equivalent of any grade. Arbitrary distribution of grades according to some formula or curve is not permitted. However, by means of departmental supervision and consultation between instructors, every effort is made to obtain consistent standards within the department. Grades Students are expected to use proper grammar in all their course work, whether written or oral. Proper usage is expected at the college level and is required by all professors. Only letter grades are given to evaluate an undergraduate student’s progress. The following definitions of letter grades are applicable: a. “A” represents superior attainment on the part of the student. b. “B” represents work that is clearly above the average, but not superior. c. “C” represents average attainment on the basic standards set for the course. d. “D” represents minimum attainment of the basic standards. e. “F” represents failure. f. “W” represents withdrawal from a course prior to the official deadline which is indicated in the college calendar and is no earlier than the Wednesday following the midterm grading period. Beyond that point, students will receive the grade of “F” should they fail to complete the course or complete it unsuccessfully. Under extenuating circumstances, the grade of “W” may be awarded after the established deadline to withdraw from a course. Such an action is taken only upon the recommendation of the instructor and requires the concurrence of the Dean responsible for the student’s academic program. Supporting evidence is the responsibility of the student and must be submitted in writing to the responsible Dean. g. “I” The notation of “I” (for Incomplete) is used in instances when course requirements have been very nearly met but for 30 Any change of grade deemed necessary by the faculty member concerned must be based on instructor error and made within one month after the beginning of the next semester in attendance following the recording of the grade. In no case will a grade be changed after one month into the second semester after it was awarded. The summer session will not be considered a semester in this case. After grades in a course have been submitted to the Registrar’s Office, every request for a change of grade must be approved by the department head and the Dean responsible for the academic program. Grade reports are available at the end of each semester and summer session. Grade-Point Ratio Computation In computing the undergraduate grade-point ratio, grades are weighted as follows: Grade Quality-Points Per Semester Hour A 4 B 3 C 2 D 1 F, I, W 0 CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �The grade-point ratio for any semester is determined by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of hours for which the following grades were received: A, B, C, D, or F. The cumulative grade-point ratio on which graduation, academic probation, and academic discharge are based is determined by dividing the number of quality points earned at The Citadel by the number of quality hours attempted at The Citadel. The number of quality hours for this purpose includes all credit hours attempted at The Citadel for which the following grades were received: A, B, C, D, or F. The number of quality points earned includes all quality points associated with quality hours earned at The Citadel. The Citadel does not award plus and minus grades for the undergraduate programs. Taking or Repeating Courses to Improve the GPA A student may not take or repeat a course which is taught at a lower level than or serves as a prerequisite for a course which the student has already completed. Courses may be repeated under the following conditions: 1. No course may be repeated once a grade of “B” or higher has been earned. 2. If a course is repeated, the last grade of record is used to determine whether course requirements for graduation have been met. 3. If a previously passed course is repeated, the hours may be used only once toward meeting requirements for total hours passed. 4. When courses are repeated under the conditions described above, the original course grade will be replaced by the newer grade when calculating students’ Grade Point Averages (GPA’s), quality hours, and earned credit hours. Both the old and new grades will appear on students’ transcripts, but only the newer grade will be used in calculating GPA’s. 5. The maximum number of hours for which Grade Replacement will be allowed over the course of a student’s undergraduate career is 16. If a student repeats more than 16 hours of credit, both the old and the new grade will be used to calculate the student’s Grade Point Average (GPA), quality hours, and earned credit hours. 6. For the purpose of determining graduation honors (e.g., cum laude, etc.), both the old grade and the new grade will be used in making the GPA calculation to determine honors eligibility. Academic Forgiveness Any undergraduate student who has been separated from The Citadel for 48 or more consecutive months is eligible to apply for Academic Forgiveness. Upon readmission, a student seeking to apply for Academic Forgiveness must first complete 24 hours at The Citadel with a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 2.0 or higher on those 24 hours in order to apply for Academic Forgiveness. To apply for Academic Forgiveness, a readmitted student who has met the minimum GPA requirement on 24 hours must make a formal written request for an academic “fresh start” and must meet in person with the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs to discuss that application. If a student is granted Academic Forgiveness, then all previous coursework completed at The Citadel will be treated as transfer credit (i.e., as pass/fail coursework) for the purpose of computing the student’s cumulative Citadel GPA; in addition, courses which the student previously passed at The Citadel with a grade of “D” will continue to be counted in the student’s total earned hours and will not have to be repeated. All previous grades will remain on the student’s permanent record, but they will not be computed in the student’s GPA. The transcript will contain this notation: “Academic Forgiveness was granted as of (date of readmission); grades earned at The Citadel prior to this date are not included in this student’s GPA calculation.” Students who have been granted Academic Forgiveness will not be eligible to receive graduation honors (e.g., cum laude, etc.). Pass-Fail Evening Undergraduate students with cumulative grade-point ratios of 2.0 or higher may elect to take elective courses on a Pass- Fail option. Normally, no more than one course may be taken under this option each semester. A student may take the Pass-Fail option only on courses which meet elective requirements. Students may not change their decision to take a course on the Pass-Fail basis after the first two weeks of the term. Courses completed on the Pass-Fail option carry graduation credit, but quality points are not awarded. These courses are not included in grade point ratio computations. Instructors report grades as usual, A through F. The Registrar’s Office translates grades as follows: • • • The grades of “A” through “C” as “S” (satisfactory, pass-for credit) The grades of “D” or “F” as “U” (unsatisfactory, fail-no credit) Students desiring to take a course on the Pass-Fail option should contact the Registrar’s Office. Requirements for Graduation For graduation, an undergraduate student must complete one of the departmental major courses of study stated in the catalog of record and must achieve a minimum cumulative grade-point ratio of 2.0 and a minimum grade point ratio of 2.0 in all coursework in the major. For undergraduate Education majors, the cumulative and professional education grade-point averages must be a 2.750. Courses used to calculate the grade point ratio in the major can be found in the degree program requirements. Commencement Honors A degree summa cum laude is awarded to undergraduate students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.900-4.000. A degree magna cum laude is awarded to undergraduate students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.700-3.899. A degree cum laude is awarded to undergraduate students in the graduating class who have achieved a grade-point average of 3.500-3.699. Transfer Credits Normally, only courses which are comparable in content and credit hours to specific courses offered by The Citadel and in which grades of “C-” or better have been earned at an accredited institution (e.g. Southern Association of Colleges, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, etc.) will be considered for transfer. However, the Dean responsible for the academic program CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 31 �in which the student is majoring may accept for transfer to meet General Elective credits courses that are not offered by The Citadel but which are considered to be worthy of credit as electives and in which grades of “C-” or higher have been earned. The respective department heads or Deans, as appropriate, are responsible for considering all transfer courses that are comparable to courses offered by The Citadel. Course work taken at another college and accepted for transfer by The Citadel need not be applicable to a student’s major. Courses transferred from another college will not be noted in the student’s grade-point ratio at The Citadel. Transcripts sent from other colleges to The Citadel become the property of The Citadel and cannot be issued to the student or a third party. To ensure that courses taken away from The Citadel will be accepted for transfer, students must obtain written, prior approval through the Office of the Registrar. Transfer Students An undergraduate student may be accepted into evening undergraduate degree-seeking status in the CGC under one of the following conditions: 1. 2. 3. The Citadel and several South Carolina technical colleges have articulated agreements that permit students to complete the first two years of study in engineering, business administration, criminal justice, political science, or Social Studies education. These credits are transferred to The Citadel, where a student can complete the final two years for a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Criminal Justice, Political Science or Social Studies Education; or a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering. A student needs to submit an application and official transcript from one of the partnering technical colleges with a minimum of 24 credit hours in order to be admitted to The Citadel through The CGC. Details of the 2+2 programs are available online. These programs are outlined in this catalog under their respective departments. Applicants may be admitted into degree-seeking status if they have transfer credit from other regionally accredited institutions that meet the requirements of the first two years of the degree program they wish to pursue. The student must provide official transcripts from all other colleges attended. Upon completion of the first 24 semester hours with a grade point ratio of at least 2.0, the student may be admitted to degree-seeking status in the selected major upon review by the academic department. If this minimum grade point ratio is not achieved within the first 24 semester hours, admission will be denied and participation in The CGC will be terminated. After acceptance by the program, any non-U.S. citizen must be cleared for registration by the International Student Coordinator. An official TOEFL score is required of any applicant for whom English is not the native language. Academic Probation Undergraduate students are placed on academic probation for any semester when their cumulative grade-point ratio based on courses taken at The Citadel fails to meet requirements for continuance without probation as outlined in the Academic Criteria for Continuance table. Students will be removed from academic probation after the semester their cumulative grade- point ratio meets the requirements of the table. Students on academic probation are not making satisfactory progress, and restrictions, such as limiting the number of credit hours in which they may enroll, may be enforced. Cadets and Evening Undergraduate Studies (EUGS) In some instances, students may decide to transfer from the South Carolina Corps of Cadets (SCCC) to the Evening Undergraduate Studies (EUGS) program. If a cadet is in good academic standing and is not serving a suspension or dismissal from the SCCC for disciplinary or honor issues, he or she may simply apply to the EUGS program through The Citadel Graduate College. In such cases, a review of the cadet’s transcripts will be made by the respective academic advisor, who will also explain the differences between the two programs, including a different class ring, diploma, and participation in the Graduate College commencement ceremony. The Registrar’s Office will amend the degree audit to reflect the differences in general education and major requirements. If a cadet has been suspended or dismissed from the SCCC for academic reasons and wishes to apply to an EUGS program of study after serving the imposed punishment, the student is required to meet with the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs who will, if appropriate, create an academic improvement plan that the student agrees to follow as a condition of reinstatement to The Citadel. If a cadet is suspended or dismissed from the SCCC for non-academic reasons, admission into an EUGS program of study after serving the imposed punishment is contingent upon completing the criteria, if any, for reinstatement outlined in his or her special order. A copy of the special order, along with documented evidence of completion of the stipulations, should be presented to the Associate Provost of Academic Affairs, who will determine if all the conditions for reinstatement have been met. Although transfer from the SCCC into the EUGS is usually permanent, a former cadet in good standing in EUGS may petition to be readmitted to the SCCC. The student seeking reinstatement in the SCCC must make written application to the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, explaining the reason for the proposed transfer. The student must meet all criteria for readmission, and, if granted approval by the Associate Provost for Academic Affairs to return to the SCCC, must follow the readmission process as put forth in the SCCC catalog. If a cadet has been expelled or resigned from the SCCC for any reason, he or she is not eligible to return to The Citadel in any program. 32 CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �GRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMS CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog 33 �TOMMY AND VICTORIA BAKER SCHOOL OF BUSINESS 34 MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �Master of Business Administration Tommy and Victoria Baker School of Business 843-953-5056 www.citadel.edu/mba Jeremy Bennett, Ph.D. MBA Program Director jbennet5@citadel.edu 3. 4. 5.

The program has a special emphasis on the history of the American South, the South Carolina Lowcountry, and the Atlantic World. The program serves the needs of those interested in pursuing graduate studies in history. Teachers who complete the program have a greater command of the literature of a particular field. Others are prepared to do doctoral work or pursue other advanced degrees, enter the field of public history, or seek employment opportunities which require advanced training in the humanities. The management of the program is vested in a Joint Program Committee composed of representatives of the two history departments. The directorship rotates between the two institutions. Diplomas and other documents will indicate that the program is a joint endeavor and will include the names of both institutions. Admission Requirements 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Completion of the online graduate application along with the non-refundable application fee. Submission of an official transcript reflecting the highest degree earned from a regionally accredited college or university. Submission of official copy of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) score. Applicants are expected to have a GRE verbal score exceeding 152. Admission test must have been taken within the last five years. Applicants are expected to have a cumulative undergraduate grade point average of at least 2.5 and a 3.0 in the major. They are also expected to have 15 hours of history course work beyond the initial survey.* Submission of three signed letters of recommendation, normally from former professors. Each reference should be as specific as possible in analyzing the applicant’s potential for success in the program. References should address the student’s ability to design, conduct, and present research without direct supervision, the ability to analyze complex data and issues, and the ability to write effectively. Submission of evidence of ability to conduct research and present findings. A term paper, honors thesis, or critical essay from a graduate or upper-level course taken in college will suffice. The evidence of writing should reflect the ability to conceptualize a research theme, conduct research to support an argument, and reach a justified conclusion. The paper should demonstrate an ability to handle documentation of evidence. *An applicant who fails to meet the GPA and course history requirements may be allowed to pursue course work as a provisional student only upon application to the Joint Program Committee. Upon completion of nine semester hours, with no more than three hours in independent study (HIST-770) and a minimum GPA of 3.25, the student may be admitted unconditionally. The student must make this request in writing to the Joint Program Committee. There is no guarantee that courses taken in a non-degree status will be credited towards a degree once a student gains provisional or regular admission. Coursework taken to meet admission prerequisites will not count towards degree requirements. Application Deadlines The Admissions Committee will consider complete applications for the program on the following dates: Admission Term: Materials Due: Fall and Summer March 1st Spring October 1st Program Requirements In consultation with an advisor, each degree candidate will develop a plan of study which includes course work at both institutions. The plan of study must be submitted to the Program Director upon completion of the first six hours or the first semester of graduate work. In addition to lectures and examinations, graduate courses demand wide reading, thorough research, and advanced historical writing. Only graduate students admitted to the M.A. program will be automatically enrolled, but non-degree students and exceptional undergraduates—upper division majors in history and related disciplines—may be enrolled in 500-level courses. For this, however, they will need permission from the instructor and are expected to have a minimum GPA of 3.4 in history courses. No more than two 500-level courses may be taken by an undergraduate. 600and 700-level courses are for M.A. program students exclusively. Work expected of juniors and seniors will not be as great as that expected of the graduate students. The qualitative expectations remain the same for all students. The Master of Arts in History is conferred upon those candidates who successfully complete an approved program of study consisting of a minimum of 33 semester hours of graduate credit with a cumulative GPA of 3.0. Twelve credit hours must be taken at the College of Charleston.

Best practices for intelligence collection and analysis and national security combined with current theory, research, and experience give students the background necessary to cultivate critical thinking, concise writing, and effective briefing. By introducing applicable management principles and policy analysis, the program fosters the leadership skills to successfully address security and intelligence challenges facing the United States. Unlike traditional graduate programs that take a theoretical and conceptual track in preparing students for further academic research, The Citadel's ISS program combines theory and practice to provide the real-world skills necessary to enter and advance in the public and private intelligence arenas. This program is entirely online to provide maximum flexibility for students, and at the same time allow the ISS program to attract instruction from intelligence professionals located around the world. By combining current theory, research, and experience, the program offers an intellectually rigorous course of study that emphasizes key skills related to analytical writing and research, critical thinking, and general international and domestic subject matter expertise. In addition, the master's program offers two concentrations, both of which lead to a certificate in addition to the MA degree. The courses in both of these concentrations count as electives for the MA degree in Intelligence and Security Studies.  The Cybersecurity concentration is offered jointly by The Citadel’s Department of Cyber and Computer Sciences and the Department of Computer Science at the College of Charleston;  The Leadership concentration is offered by the Department of Leadership Studies.

The two programs share 24 credit hours. These courses reflect the Department’s recognition that all branches of psychology revolve around a common knowledge base with specializations being an extension beyond that base. The Department of Psychology espouses a philosophical perspective of training and practice that stresses an empirical and applied approach to addressing psychosocial problems of clients. Most faculty members are engaged in clinical practice, research efforts, or both. Faculty members’ activities are guided by a scientist-practitioner model, which emphasizes a scholarly approach to applications of psychology. The Clinical Counseling program offers graduate education at the master’s degree level for those interested in becoming professional counselors in community agencies, including college counseling centers, hospitals, mental health, and social services agencies. The program is accredited by the State Department of Education in South Carolina and the Masters in Psychology and Counseling Accreditation Council (MPCAC). Students enrolled in the Clinical Counseling program work to achieve a Master of Arts in Psychology degree by completing a total of 60 credit hours. The program includes 30 credit hours of core courses, 12 hours of advanced courses, 3 credit hours in addictions coursework, 3 credit hours in career counseling, 9 hours of fieldwork, and 3 hours of an elective. Fieldwork is completed in agencies throughout the tri-county area and involves a 100-hour practicum and 600-hour internship. Students completing the Clinical Counseling program meet the educational requirements for licensure as Professional Counselors and may for licensure as an Addictions Counselor in South Carolina. The School Psychology program is built around the model of the data-based problem-solver at the individual, organizational, and systems levels in schools, with an emphasis on the efficacy of outcomes for clients served. The program involves 75-semester hours of credit, and it leads to the Education Specialist (Ed.S.) degree and certification as a “School Psychologist II” in South Carolina and National Certification as a School Psychologist. The School Psychology program is fully accredited by the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP). Students can apply for the award of a Master of Arts in Psychology degree after completing 39 semester hours from the School Psychology Program of Studies and receiving the approval of the Director of the School Psychology program and the Head of the Department of Psychology. PSYC-599, Thesis, MUST be completed as part of those 39 hours.

Descriptions of courses are listed in the last section of this catalog. Attendance Policy The Catalog of The Citadel Graduate College delineates a general policy regarding class attendance. Students are expected to be familiar with this general attendance policy. Unless stated differently in course syllabi, this general policy is in effect and course instructors can fail a student who misses more than 20% of classes. The graduate program in School Psychology is, by its nature, an applied practitioner program leading to an anticipated passing score on the PRAXIS II School Psychology subject test and certification as a Level II School Psychologist in South Carolina. A number of the courses are designed to facilitate the acquisition of hands-on experiences with various diagnostic, evaluation, and intervention techniques where skill acquisition is based on instructor demonstrations and modeling, guided individual and group practice and participation by the student, role playing, and group activities, such as simulations, that build the necessary foundations for the acquisition of the basic skills necessary to the practice of the profession of School Psychology. In these courses, a strict absence policy has been adopted to ensure that learning experiences are not compromised. Specifically, courses that fall under this absence policy are as follows: PSYC-503, PSYC-504, PSYC- 505, PSYC-512, PSYC 612, PSYC-615/616, PSYC-617/618, PSYC605, PSYC-606, PSYC-607, PSYC-608, PSYC-621, and PSYC622. Students enrolled in these classes are advised to consult their syllabus and instructor for more specific details. Other field-based experiences may require a criminal background check prior to field placement.

The School offers programs to prepare school teachers, school counselors, literacy teachers, literacy coaches, and educational administrators. The Citadel has been involved in the preparation of teachers since the creation of the School of Education and Psychology in 1929. In 1954, the School of Education was approved as a separate department. Master’s degree programs for teachers and Master’s degree programs for prospective counselors were authorized in 1968. Master’s degree programs for school administrators were authorized in 1970. The Educational Specialist degree in educational administration was approved in 1975, and the Educational Specialist degree in School Psychology was approved in 1980. Prior to 1974, the South Carolina State Department of Education (SCDE) approved The Citadel’s Educator Preparation programs. In 1974, all professional education programs offered by The Citadel were initially accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). Both state-approved program status and national accreditation have been continuous since they were initially granted. The most recent SCDE, Commission on Higher Education (CHE), and NCATE/CAEP program reviews, conducted in the spring of 2013, resulted in continuing program accreditation approval. The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) granted accreditation in July 2005 to the School Counseling Programs which offers a Master of Education in Counselor Education. Statement of Philosophy The philosophy of the Zucker Family School of Education at The Citadel is based on five fundamental propositions. These propositions serve to orient the mission and conceptual base of the School, guide the actions and value system of the faculty, shape the curricula of the various programs, and provide to its faculty their sense of purpose and meaning for teaching, scholarship, and professional service. These five propositions are: 1. The faculty is committed to promoting education for all individuals to the fullest extent possible. With the implementation of appropriate teaching and assessment strategies, a fundamental guiding belief is that all students, though having unique learning styles and experiences, are capable of learning. 80 2. It is the educator’s responsibility, with the aid of appropriate resources and support, to establish a mutually respectful environment where effective learning occurs for all students. 3. Education is a systematic effort to facilitate the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values necessary for the student to function in a diverse society. 4. The faculty is committed to upholding the highest professional standards in all situations in which they model these standards to students through their teaching, research, and service endeavors. 5. The faculty is committed to an open interchange of ideas wherein the perspectives of all are valued. The School’s Conceptual Model The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit prepares principled educational leaders to be knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals. Candidates completing our programs are committed to ensuring that all students succeed in a learner- centered environment. Rationale: • Society is in need of principled educational professionals committed to ensuring all students learn; • All children and young adults require high quality educational experiences that enable them to compete and prosper in the global economy; and • Such high quality educational experiences require a transformed educational system focused on fostering twenty– first century knowledge and skills in all children and young adults. The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit is committed to the simultaneous transformation of the preparation of educational leaders and of the places where they work. Specifically, The Citadel’s Professional Education Unit seeks to develop principled educational leaders who: • Have mastered their subject matter and are skilled in using it to foster student learning; • Know the self who educates (Parker J. Palmer) and integrate this self-knowledge with content knowledge, knowledge of students, and in the context of becoming professional change agents committed to using this knowledge and skill to ensure that all students succeed in a learner-centered environment; and • Exemplify the highest ethical standards by modeling respect for all human beings and valuing diversity as an essential component of an effective learner-centered environment. Through our initial program for teacher candidates for P-12 schools and our advanced programs for professional educators in P-20 schools, The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit shapes cadets and graduate students into principled educational leaders capable of and committed to transforming our schools into learning communities where all succeed. CGC/EUGS Academic Catalog �The Citadel’s Professional Educational Unit has identified 15 performance indicators for candidates to demonstrate that they are principled educational leaders who are knowledgeable, reflective, and ethical professionals: Knowledgeable Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Have mastered the subject matter of their field of professional study and practice; 2. Utilize the knowledge gained from developmental and learning theories to establish and implement an educational program that is varied, creative, and nurturing; 3. Model instructional and leadership theories of best practice; 4. Integrate appropriate technology to enhance learning; 5. Demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning; Reflective Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Develop and describe their philosophy of education and reflect upon its impact in the teaching and learning environment; 2. Develop and manage meaningful educational experiences that address the needs of all learners with respect for their individual and cultural experiences; 3. Construct, foster, and maintain a learner-centered environment in which all learners contribute and are actively engaged; 4. Apply their understanding of both context and research to plan, structure, facilitate, and monitor effective teaching and learning in the context of continual assessment; and 5. Reexamine their practice by reflectively and critically asking questions and seeking answers. Ethical Principled Educational Leaders... 1. Demonstrate commitment to a safe, supportive, learning environment; 2. Embrace and adhere to appropriate professional codes of ethics; 3. Value diversity and exhibit a caring, fair, and respectful attitude and respect toward all cultures; 4. Establish rapport with students, families, colleagues, and communities; 5. Meet obligations on time, dress professionally, and use language appropriately. The Professional Education Board To facilitate the college-wide mission of preparing principled leaders for professional education, The Citadel established the Professional Education Board (PEB). The Citadel PEB’s primary focus is to foster academic environments that promote the development of principled leaders for the education profession and to facilitate the continuing improvement of professional education programs across the institution. In pursuing these goals, the PEB will concentrate on communication, assessment, and governance issues. The Citadel’s Dean of the Zucker Family School of Education chairs the Board, which is comprised of representatives from all of The Citadel’s professional education constituencies, including faculty, staff, students, and our P-12 colleagues. PEB members are appointed by the Dean of the School of Education in collaboration with the Deans of Humanities and Social Science, of Science and Mathematics, and of The Citadel Graduate College. Beginning in September 2006, the Professional Education Board meets monthly during each academic year. The School’s Website The Zucker Family School of Education has a diverse faculty with a wide array of teaching and research interests. Additional information on these interests, as well as other departmental highlights, initiatives and activities, can be viewed online: www.citadel.edu/education.
