Student Right to Know

The Student Right to Know Act requires an institution that participates in any student financial assistance program under Title IV of Higher Education Act of 1965 (as amended) to disclose information about graduation rates to current and prospective students . The Higher Education Act of 1992 required that these same institutions report this data to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) through completion of the IPEDS graduation rate survey. Information about Tooele Tech (including student body diversity, completion, retention, graduation and financial aid performance rates) can be easily accessed through which is a service provided by the National Center for Education Statistics.

Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)

Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords eligible students certain rights with respect to their education records.  (An 鈥渆ligible student鈥 under FERPA is a student who is 18 years of age or older or who attends a post-secondary institution at any age.) These rights include:

The right to inspect and review the student鈥檚 education records within 45 days after the day Tooele Tech receives a request for access. A student should submit to the registrar, a written request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect.  The registrar will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected.

The right to request the amendment of the student鈥檚 education records that the student believes is inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student鈥檚 privacy rights under FERPA.

A student who wishes to ask Tooele Tech to amend a record should write the registrar, clearly identify the part of the record the student wants changed, and specify why it should be changed.

If Tooele Tech decides not to amend the record as requested, Tooele Tech will notify the student in writing of the decision and the student鈥檚 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.

The right to provide written consent before Tooele Tech discloses personally identifiable information (PII) from the student鈥檚 education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.

Tooele Tech discloses education records without a student鈥檚 prior written consent under the FERPA exception for disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests.  A school official typically includes a person employed by the Tooele Tech in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research, or support staff position; a person serving on the board of trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee.  A school official also may include a volunteer or contractor outside of the Tooele Tech who performs an institutional service or function for which the school would otherwise use its own employees and who is under the direct control of the school with respect to the use and maintenance of PII from education records, such as an attorney, auditor, or a student volunteering to assist another school official in performing his or her tasks.  A school official typically 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 Tooele Tech.

Upon request, Tooele Tech also discloses education records without consent to officials of another school in which a student seeks or intends to enroll.

The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the Tooele Tech to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is:

Clery Act Information

In 1990, the Higher Education Act of 1965 (HEA) was amended to include the Crime Awareness and College  Security  Act  of  1990  (Title  II  of  Public  Law  101-  542).  This amendment required all postsecondary institutions participating in Title IV student financial aid programs to disclose College crime statistics and security information. In 1998, the act was renamed the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of College Security Policy and Crime Statistics Act in memory of Jeanne Clery, a university student who was killed in her dorm room in 1986. More commonly known as the Clery Act, this law requires colleges and universities to:

  • Collect, classify and count crime reports and statistics
  • Issue College alerts
  • Publish an annual security report
  • Submit crime statistics to the Department of Education
  • Maintain a daily crime log
  • Disclose missing student notification procedures for institutions with on-campus student housing
  • Provide fire safety information for institutions with on-campus student housing

Under the Clery Act, the on-campus category includes the following: Any building or property owned or controlled by an institution within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area and used by the institution in direct support of, or in a manner related to, the institution鈥檚 educational purposes, including residence halls; and Any building or property that is within or reasonably contiguous to the area identified in paragraph (1) of this definition, that is owned by the institution but controlled by another person, is frequently used by students, and supports institutional purposes (such as a food or other retail vendor).

The College strictly maintains and enforces the safety and security of the campus community. The College complies with safety and security guidelines by the Crime Awareness and Security Act of 1990; The U.S Department of Education; State and Local Laws and local law enforcement agencies; and various publications.  The College strictly forbids the possession of firearms or other weapons on school property or during school related outings per state law. The College has zero tolerance policy regarding immoral conduct and enforces campus safety and security regulations pertaining to verbal, sexual, and physical harassment of a fellow student or staff member as well as threat of physical violence against a fellow student or staff member.

Fraud and Misrepresentation for Financial Aid Purposes

The Financial Aid Department carefully monitors all financial aid documents for potential errors or discrepancies 鈥 including willful misrepresentations, or fraud.

Per Federal regulations, Tooele Tech is required to report to the Department鈥檚 Office of Inspector General (OIG) any individual who is suspected of fraud, or deliberate misrepresentation of information which may affect an applicant鈥檚 eligibility for Title IV aid (see statute 34 CFR 668.16(g)(1)).

Section 490(a) of the Higher Education Act outlines the potential penalties of financial aid fraud:

鈥淎ny person who knowingly and willfully embezzles, misapplies, steals, obtains by fraud, false statement, or forgery [鈥 or attempts to so embezzle, misapply, steal, obtain by fraud, false statement or forgery [鈥 shall be fined not more than $20,000 or imprisoned for not more than 5 years, or both, except if the amount so embezzled, misapplied, stolen, obtained by fraud, false statement, or forgery, or failed to be refunded does not exceed $200, then the fine shall not be more than $5,000 and imprisonment shall not exceed one year, or both.鈥

By accepting Tooele Tech鈥檚 Terms and Conditions of a financial aid award or receiving Title IV Financial Aid, students acknowledge and accept the above relevant statutes.

Foreign Diploma Verification

High school diplomas from a foreign country are recognized as a valid diploma if the foreign secondary school credentials are evidence of completing the equivalent of a secondary education in the United States. The College does not have the expertise to make that determination therefore the student must use a foreign diploma evaluation service.

If an applicant indicates that he or she cannot obtain documentation of his or her completion of a secondary school education in a foreign country, applicants must submit:

  1. Proof of their attempt to obtain documentation of their completion of a secondary school education in a foreign country, i.e., a copy of an e-mail or letter, including proof of mailing;
  2. A signed and dated statement that indicates that the applicant completed his or her secondary school education in a foreign country, the name and address of the foreign high school where the applicant completed the secondary school education and the date when the foreign high school diploma was awarded.
  3. A copy of the entry status documentation that identifies the applicant鈥檚 current or prior status as a refugee, an asylee, or as a victim of human trafficking and who entered the United States after the age of 15.

Services to Students with Disabilities

In compliance with the , adult students with qualifying physical and intellectual disabilities may apply to the College to receive reasonable accommodations by consulting with the ADA Coordinator located in the Student Services office. Documentation, as indicated in the, is required.

What is a reasonable accommodation?

For purposes of reasonable accommodation, a student or applicant with a disability is a person who has learning, physical or psychological impairment which limits one or more major life activities such as walking, seeing, speaking, learning, or working.

Reasonable accommodations are modifications or adjustments to the tasks, environment or to the way things are usually done that enable individuals with disabilities to have an equal opportunity to participate in an academic program.  Tooele Tech is responsible for providing necessary accommodations when a student discloses a disability. Tooele Tech is required to make reasonable adjustments or modifications and to provide auxiliary aids and services for students with disabilities, unless to do so would fundamentally alter the nature of the programs or result in an undue burden. Providing accommodations do not compromise the essential elements of a course or curriculum; nor do they weaken the academic standards or integrity of a course. Accommodations simply provide an alternative way to accomplish the course requirements by eliminating or reducing disability-related barriers. They provide a level playing field, not an unfair advantage.

What is the process to request a reasonable accommodation?

  • Review the Request for Accommodations application
  • Gather your documentation, ensuing it contains your diagnosis and list of recommended accommodations
  • Make an appointment to meet with the ADA Coordinator by calling 435-248-1800

Tuition and Financial Information

A student鈥檚 time in the course will be based on the number of hours/credit the student is signed up for. If a student is ill or on vacation, it will not alter the end date for the course. If a student has not completed the course in the allotted time, they must sign up for the course a second time. No scholarships or grants offered by 91免费看片 will pay for the course the second time. If a student fails to officially withdraw through Student Services, he/she is still enrolled until 10 consecutive absences have occurred. At that time the student will be withdrawn from the college (10 day drop). A student may be required to speak with the Student Academic Advisor to discuss his/her goals and College expectations. Students receiving Title IV financial aid will need to meet with the Financial Aid Coordinator. Click on Tuition Information to learn more about tuition.

Eligibility for Federal Student Aid

A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid, as long as you meet the attendance and progress requirements. Federal Pell Grants usually are awarded only to undergraduate students who have not earned a bachelor鈥檚 or a professional degree.  You are not eligible to receive a Federal Pell Grant if you are incarcerated in a federal or state penal institution or are subject to an involuntary civil commitment upon completion of a period of incarceration for a forcible or non-forcible sexual offense.

The amount of your Pell Grant eligibility is determined by the Department of Education. A need-based formula assigns students an index number that is called an 鈥淓xpected Family Contribution (EFC)鈥. This index number reflects the amount a student is expected to contribute to his or her own education costs.  Students with an EFC above a certain range are not eligible for a Pell Grant.

Tooele Tech does not participate in federal student loan programs. If you do not qualify for federal funding you may apply for college scholarships or secure funds from private or public agencies outside Tooele Tech (Dept. of Workforce Services, Division of Rehabilitation Services, etc.).

Determining and Activating an Award

If you are eligible for financial aid, the financial aid office will package your award and provide you with an estimated financial aid offer within 30 days from when you have completed a FAFSA.  Need is calculated as the cost of attendance (see above) minus your EFC.  All funding sources available to pay your school costs are applied in determining your need.

You must begin the financial aid process by contacting the financial aid office in-person. Three conditions must be met in order for you to receive your financial aid award. 1) You must be eligible; 2) you must have started school; 3) you must have submitted all required paperwork.

Disbursement of Funds

Financial aid award processing, from the time your financial aid file is complete (or the day you start school) up until any Title IV funds are disbursed to your student account, may take up to 30 days. However, the Financial Aid Office can provide you vouchers for tuition, program fees, required books and supplies up to the maximum amount of your eligibility.

Disbursement for Books and Supplies

If you qualify for adequate funds, book vouchers can also be provided for required books, supplies, and curriculum on the first day of class.

Once a student qualifies to receive a disbursement, the financial assistance office will disburse Federal Pell Grant to the student鈥檚 tuition account. The Federal Pell Grant will be applied against all tuition charges for the entire payment period, and any other charges the student has authorized Tooele Tech to pay. If a student has funds remaining after these charges have been paid the school will release this Title IV refund to the student within 14 calendar days. You are responsible for updating address information directly with the Financial Aid Office. Funds returned undeliverable will be sent back to the U.S. Department of Education.

Tuition is charged at the beginning of each course of your program.

You can only receive a Federal Pell Grant at one school at a time.

You must notify the Financial Aid Office if it is your intention to transfer to another school. You must officially stop your federal aid at Tooele Tech before accessing aid at a new school. If you fail to do this, any costs that accrue or Federal Aid overpaid are your responsibility.

In keeping with federal grant regulations, Tooele Tech pays federal grant funds in increments called payment periods. Payment periods are defined by federal regulation and are determined by your program length, the academic year of your program, and for students receiving aid in more than one year, the remainder of the program.  See the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy to view the payment periods in your program.

Attendance Requirements

The Financial Aid Office recommends that student鈥檚 attendance be 80% or higher. It is our experience that students with attendance less than this often fail to meet the progress requirements. In addition, federal aid funds are earned through school attendance and progress. The absolute minimum attendance allowance is 67%. If attendance is less than 80% the student will receive a courtesy warning. This warning is only to alert the student of the potential risk of low attendance. If the student鈥檚 attendance falls below 67% aid will be suspended.

Once a student鈥檚 aid has been suspended they can regain eligibility by getting their cumulative attendance to 67% and maintaining it at that rate. Students are only eligible for payment in the payment period in which they regain eligibility 鈥 not for any prior payment periods. Please note that progress standards must also be met in order to be considered for reinstatement.

Attendance standards for prior enrollment periods will count towards the current federal aid eligibility for five years from the date of the student鈥檚 last withdrawal. The office will require the student to serve a paid probation if their attendance was poor during the prior enrollment. In addition, a student could be required to serve a non-paid probation period, if they demonstrated poor attendance habits in a prior enrollment period that impacted aid eligibility at that time, regardless of the time frame.

See the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy for more information.

Satisfactory Academic Progress Requirements

All enrolled students are required to maintain satisfactory academic progress towards meeting the established graduation requirements of Tooele Tech鈥檚 programs. A student must meet each of the following qualitative and quantitative standards to demonstrate satisfactory academic progress:

Qualitative Measure

A student must have a minimum score of 80% on all tests or other course assignments, and demonstrate 100% mastery on related skill assessments before continuing to the next course.

Quantitative Measure 鈥 Pace

Course material is assigned progress hours based on the average time a student would be expected to complete the material. Progress hours are then measured as a ratio against enrolled hours to determine how many hours a student actually took to complete the course material. Students must be on pace for completing the program in no more that 150% of the weeks in the program. Progress is monitored at the end of each payment period.

The Financial Aid Office recommends that your attendance be at least 80%. It is our experience that students with attendance less than this often fail to meet the progress requirements. If your attendance is less than 80% you will receive a courtesy warning. This warning is only to alert you of the potential risk of low attendance. Students are not eligible for their next Title IV disbursement until they have completed all hours in the payment period.

The absolute minimum attendance allowed is 67%.  A student must attend at least 67% of the scheduled class hours on a cumulative basis during each evaluation period in order to meet SAP and be eligible for their next Pell disbursement

Maximum Time Frame

Students must complete the program within 150% of the program length, expressed in calendar time. For example, a 600 clock hour program would take a full-time student 25 weeks, and the school鈥檚 maximum time frame is 150% (which is based on 67% attendance 鈥 minimum required), then the program鈥檚 maximum time frame is 38 weeks.

Early Completion

Tooele Tech鈥檚 model of competency based learning can result in students completing their program in fewer hours than the length of the program. Federal Aid can only be earned for hours you actually attend the program. Students receiving Federal Aid are required to attend all of the hours in their respective program in order to be eligible for Federal Aid, early completion will result in student having to return Title IV funding.

Program Changes

Students will be allowed one program change (two programs) in a two-year period. In the event that a student is seeking funding for coursework previously funded, the student must show just cause that the technology has changed enough to render the training obsolete. Time cannot be the only factor involved in the request unless the coursework is more than five years old.

Early Withdrawal – Return of Title IV

When students withdraw from school before completing the period of enrollment they have been paid for, they are subject to the Tooele Tech Financial Aid policy on Return of Title IV. The Financial Aid Office will conduct a calculation to determine how much of the aid was earned. Any funds not earned must be returned to the U.S. Department of Education. If the student received more funds than they are entitled, they are considered overpaid. Those funds must be paid back to the U.S.  Department of Education directly and students will lose their financial aid eligibility until those funds are repaid. If Tooele Tech must return unearned aid that was used to pay direct school costs accrued by the student, Tooele Tech will return those funds to the U.S. Department of Education and bill the student for any outstanding charges.

See the Return of Title IV Policy for additional information.

Scholarships

Tooele Tech scholarships may be awarded to students based on their financial need. Scholarships are to be used to further technical pursuits for employment. All Scholarship Applications are available in the Student Services office.

Tooele Tech works hard to bring scholarship offerings to students attending the College. The College receives funds from various organizations, foundations, and individuals that are intended to assist students in off-setting their education expenses.

Adult Scholarship Deadline: The scholarship office accepts applications each month for award consideration in the subsequent month.

Constitution Day

In 2004, Congress passed a provision that every school and college that receives federal funding must teach students about Constitution of the United States each year on September 17, the day this historical document was adopted in 1787.  Each year on September 17 (or the 16th or 18th if the 17th falls on a weekend) holds a Constitution Assembly for its students. The students are exposed to elements of the Constitution through creativity, classroom involvement, and break time activities.
