The KCTCS Catalog serves as the students’ guide to academic programs and services that our colleges provide. Students who enroll in an academic
program should fulfill requirements as they exist at the time of such enrollment. If requirements change while the student is enrolled in a program,
he/she may fulfill either the new or old requirements.
KCTCS makes every effort to include relevant, timely, and accurate information in the Catalog. However, KCTCS reserves the right to make changes
in the calendar, admission policies, expenses, programs, curricula, course descriptions, or any other matters addressed or not addressed in this pub-
lication. Prospective students and enrolled students should check with college admission officers and academic advisers to learn of any changes. Also,
some updates may be included in the online version of the Catalog located at kctcs.edu.

Introduction
Message from Dr. Jay Box, KCTCS President
I’m so happy you’re considering improving your educa-
tion and your life! My goal is for you not only to enter
college, but also to complete college, and you’re taking
that first important step by checking out the programs
and classes we offer. With campuses close to you and
hundreds of online offerings, I’m sure you’ll find just
what you’re looking for.
You’re making a smart choice by choosing one of the 16
KCTCS colleges. Our tuition is the lowest in the state
– less than half of what you’d pay at a four-year uni-
versity. As you prepare to move forward in your higher
ed journey, our faculty and staff will be there with you
every step of the way. Our role is to make sure you suc-
ceed, so please let us know what we can do to help. If
you have questions about anything you see in the cata-
log, how to enroll, financial aid or any other concern,
contact the KCTCS college nearest you or call (855) 465-2827. Our Go KCTCS! call center
never closes, so anytime you have a question, someone will be there to answer it. You’ll also
find more information about our colleges at kctcs.edu.
On behalf of the entire KCTCS family of colleges, I wish you the best of luck in your educa-
tional endeavors.
Sincerely,
Jay K. Box, Ed.D.
President, KCTCS

Admission
Admission
Applying for Admission
A student enrolling at a KCTCS college for the first time must submit
an application for admission. Students who are re-entering a KCTCS
college after being out for one or more semesters should complete an
application for readmission. Students may be admitted to a KCTCS col-
lege as freshmen, as students with transfer credit from other institutions,
as visiting students, or as non-degree students. KCTCS colleges admit
students who have graduated from high school, who have earned a high
school general equivalency diploma, who are eligible to pursue a GED,
or who are dually enrolled in high school and the college.
Admission and Registration Procedures
• Prospective students visit the college’s website to complete an online
application or contact the admission office of the college they wish to
attend and request an admission application.
• The full and proper name of the student and KCTCS student ID
number must be used in registration and for all other official pur-
poses.
• Freshmen entering a college for the first time will be required to
send an official copy of their high school transcript, GED, or state
approved high school equivalency to the admission office of the col-
lege they plan to attend. Official high school transcripts submitted to
KCTCS may be shared with all KCTCS Colleges.
• Applicants entering with transfer credit must have an official tran-
script from each college attended forwarded to the admission office
of the college they plan to attend.
• Applicants should submit results of the American College Test®
(ACT), KYOTE, or Scholastic Aptitude Test® (SAT). Applicants who
have not taken the ACT® or other placement exam must complete a
placement examination administered by any KCTCS college. For spe-
cific information regarding course placement, students should refer
to the KCTCS Assessment and Placement Policy, which is available on
the website at kctcs.edu, under “Students”, then “Academic Regula-
tions”.
• Admission to a college does not guarantee admission to a specific
program. Applicants seeking admission to an occupational/technical
program at any KCTCS college should contact the admission office of
the college of interest for information regarding any special require-
ments for program admission.
• Applicants must submit an application for admission and supporting
documents prior to the first day of classes of the term or session for
which the student plans to enroll. Some colleges, however, may have
an earlier deadline date. Students should check with the admission
office of the college they plan to attend for registration/application
deadlines.
• A student who applies for admission to a KCTCS college will receive
instructions to establish access to Student Self-Service. Student Self-
Service allows a student access to many services such as registration,
grades, class schedule, financial aid awards, bill payment and many
other services.
• All enrolled KCTCS students will be given access to a KCTCS- as-
signed email account. Official communication from faculty and
student service personnel will be sent to this address. Students will
continue to have access to this account as long as they are enrolled.
After receiving the completed application and other documents, the
admission office will notify the applicant of his or her admission status.
It is expected that all students will submit all required documents in or-
der to be eligible to register for classes. In the event this is not possible,
students should contact the Admissions Office of the KCTCS college
they wish to attend for instructions or assistance. While provisions may
be provided, students will not be permitted to register for subsequent
semesters without all official required documents.
Non-Degree/Non-Credential Students
At the discretion of the institution, persons who desire instruction with-
out wishing to earn a credential may be admitted as non-degree/non-
credential students. These students are exempt from taking the assess-
ment instrument; however, all students (including high school students)
must meet individual pre-requisites such as those for entry-level English
and mathematics courses.
Students may declare credential seeking status after meeting regular ad-
mission requirements. The college may review and reclassify credential-
seeking status in accordance with policies established at each individual
college. Non-degree/non-credential students are not eligible for Federal
Financial Aid programs.
Credit earned before a student meets admission requirements will be
counted toward a credential.
High School Students
The condition of graduation from high school may be waived for a stu-
dent currently enrolled in high school subject to the following guide-
lines. All applicants shall submit:
• a KCTCS application for admission by the appropriate deadline
• the results of the ACT®, SAT®, KYOTE, and/or other approved
placement scores in accordance with KCTCS Assessment and Place-
ment Policy.
A college may require additional information as part of the admission
process.
In some cases, courses offered on the high school campus carry both
high school and college credit. See your high school counselor for more
information.
Second Chance Students
A student who has previously attended a college or university – other
than a college in the Kentucky Community and Technical College System
– and who has less than an overall grade-point average of 2.0 on a 4.0
scale in all course work attempted, may be considered for admission on
probation provided the applicant demonstrates both of the following:
• has not enrolled at a college or university for at least one 16-week
semester, and
• can demonstrate potential for success.
Transient/Visiting Students
.A student may be admitted as a transient or visiting student. However,
the student’s parent college must certify each term that the student is
enrolled or eligible to enroll at parent institution.
46
International Students
Some KCTCS colleges are authorized under Federal law to enroll non-
immigrant students. Consult the admission office of your college for
details.
Readmission after Two or More Years: Academic Bankruptcy
A student who has been readmitted after having remained out of a
KCTCS College for a period of two or more years and who has com-
pleted at least 12 credit hours in college-level courses with a grade point
average of 2.0 or better after readmission, may choose to have his/her
previous KCTCS course work removed from the computation of the
grade point average. This procedure is commonly called “academic bank-
ruptcy.”
A student who declares academic bankruptcy will continue to receive
credit for those courses in which a grade of A, B, C, D, or P was earned
prior to readmission without including those grades in the GPA compu-
tation. A student who has completed a credential and re-enrolls may not
apply the academic bankruptcy rule to courses taken for the credential
already completed.
Previous College Work
An applicant who has previously attended an accredited college or uni-
versity which awards degrees at the associate level or higher and who has
an overall grade point average of at least 2.0 on a 4.0 scale in all course
work attempted will be accepted for admission. For specific information
on course placement, applicants should refer to the KCTCS Assessment
and Placement Policy, which is available on the website at kctcs.edu, un-
der “Students”, then “Academic Regulations”. An official transcript of all
previous college work must be submitted. The Council on Postsecond-
ary Education’s (CPE’s) general education transfer policy provides the
basis for an institution’s policy on the acceptance of transfer credit. The
American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers’
“Transfer Credit Practices of Educational Institutions” shall serve as a
reference for admission of transfer students to an institution and for the
acceptance of transfer credit.
KCTCS colleges shall provide academic counseling concerning the trans-
fer of credit to transferring students. KCTCS colleges shall accept a stu-
dent’s college credit earned when a course is taken both for high school
credit and for college credit. Credit earned through a dual credit or dual
enrollment arrangement shall be treated the same as credit earned in any
other college course.
Degree credit work is recognized credit hour for credit hour if taken on
the semester system. Quarter hours are recognized as two-thirds (2/3)
of a semester hour. Recognition of credit earned at a non-accredited
college or university may be obtained by special subject examinations
or may be validated upon the completion of 12 credit hours, excluding
transitional courses, with a grade point average of at least 2.0.
Change of Program
When students enroll in a KCTCS college they select a program of study
in which they wish to “major” or receive a credential. Students enrolled
in any KCTCS college may request a program change through the stu-
dent affairs office of their local college. These students are instructed to
seek appropriate advisement and financial aid counseling.
KCTCS Assessment and Placement Policy
Students enrolling in a college credit course for the purpose of earning
credit applicable toward an educational credential who meet college
readiness benchmarks as identified by the Council on Postsecondary Edu-
cation’s College Readiness indicators may enroll in college-level course-
work. In addition to the college readiness benchmarks included in the
tables found in sections below, the Council on Postsecondary Education
recognizes a GED score of 165 or higher, a PARCC Level 4 or a Smarter
Balanced Level 4 as indicators of college readiness with no developmen-
tal, co-requisite or supplemental coursework required in reading, writ-
ing, and quantitative reasoning (below college algebra). Students who
do not demonstrate college or career readiness for their academic plan
must remedy the identified skill deficiencies by enrollment in transitional
education courses, entry-level courses with approved supplementary
academic support, co-requisite courses, or approved college readiness
intervention(s) within the first two terms of enrollment per Council on
Postsecondary Education regulation 13 KAR 2:020. Enrollment shall
continue consecutively until the designated academic skill levels are at-
tained.
Students with 12 or more credit hours at the 100 level or above in gener-
al education courses with a 2.0 GPA are exempt from reading placement
requirements and are considered college ready in reading. However, all
students must meet individual course pre-requisites such as those for
entry-level English and mathematics courses.
This assessment and placement policy specifically applies to all creden-
tial-seeking students, students who transition from non-credential seek-
ing to credential seeking, and students who are undecided about their
choice of program as of Fall 2016The skills for which the Assessment
and Placement Policy applies are mathematics, reading, and writing. An
ACT® score of at least a 19 in mathematics, 20 in reading or18 in writ-
ing allows the student to enroll in entry-level courses for those areas.
Students who do not intend to seek an educational credential are exempt
from taking the assessment instrument; however, all students must meet
individual course pre-requisites such as those for entry-level English and
mathematics courses.
The KCTCS Placement and Assessment policy can be found at the main
KCTCS web page kctcs.edu, under “Students”, then “Academic Regula-
tions”.
*Certificate programs that require 18 credits or less are exempt from the
Assessment and Placement Policy. However, applicable course prerequi-
sites still apply.

Co-requisite Model
Some KCTCS colleges provide co-requisite model instruction options in addition to or in place of transitional coursework. In the co-requisite model
of instruction, students are placed into a credit-bearing course while developmental needs are met through additional instruction concurrent to the
course. The pilot college models should be documented with the KCTCS Vice Chancellor of Academics Office and data of student success shared
within the colleges. Research findings will be used to determine future policy for assessment and placement for the system.

Tuition and Charges
Tuition and Charges
Tuition and Charges
Tuition and charges vary based on whether a student is a Kentucky resi-
dent, non-resident, or resident of a contiguous county of a contiguous
state. Tuition and charges are on a per credit hour rate, including courses
that are audited. For questions regarding residency status and guidelines,
see Appendix A. All tuition and charges are payable in full prior to the
beginning of classes for each session of the term unless prior arrange-
ment has been made with the college business office. Consult your local
college business office for college-specific required payment dates. Pro-
visions for partial or deferred payment instructions are available in the
“Payment Plan Options” section below.
Tuition and charges are assessed at the time of registration and based
upon a per credit hour rate for all KCTCS colleges regardless of whether
the courses are taken during the day, evening, and/or on weekends, and
regardless of whether the courses are taken for credit or audit purposes.
Tuition rates vary based upon Kentucky resident or non-Kentucky resi-
dent status. Qualifying students living in out of state counties that are
contiguous to Kentucky may qualify for a reduced tuition rate. Frac-
tional credit hour tuition and charges are assessed for fractional credit
offerings (i.e., a student taking ¼ credit hour course would be assessed
¼ rate of student with same residency taking a 1 credit hour course).
Tuition and charges are refundable as per the “Refunds” section below.
Charges for services are non-refundable unless specifically stated as re-
fundable. Consult with your college business office for specifics. Tuition
charges are published at www.kctcs.edu.
Mandatory Student Fee
A mandatory student fee of $8 per credit hour will be assessed in the
2017-2018 academic year. Questions regarding fees may be directed to
your college’s business office.
Charges for Customized Course Offerings
Some courses, including courses created specifically upon request (credit
or non-credit) may have additional charges. The additional charge, de-
pending upon the requirements of developing and producing the cus-
tomized course or program, will vary depending upon the length and
content of the course or program offerings. All tuition and charges for
customized courses are payable upon registration unless prior arrange-
ments, including third party contracts, have been made with the offering
college. Please contact your local college business office for specifics.
Charges for Services
Some charges for services may exist, including some individual program
and/or special testing charges. General examples of these charges in-
clude, but are not limited to, the following: GED and ACT® testing,
returned check charge and lost library book/video replacement charge.
Charges will vary by service and are non-refundable. Contact your col-
lege business office for specifics.
Distance Education: There are no additional student charges associated
with the verification of student identity.
Charges for Special Examination
KCTCS colleges offer students institutionally developed special exami-
nations to demonstrate mastery of course content and receive credit
toward program requirements. Special examinations are course specific
and charges are separate from regular tuition charges. Special examina-
tion charges are payable in full at the time the examination is scheduled.
Contact your local college business office for a listing of all charges.
Students who are enrolled in courses for which they elect to take a spe-
cial examination in lieu of completing the course must officially with-
draw from the course. The withdrawal date determines the status of the
student’s assessment, refund, and grade for the enrollment period. All
special examination credit is awarded using the test credit process. In
such instances, a grade will not be awarded on the current term grade
report. Please contact your college’s office of student affairs for applica-
tion requirements.

programs, including local scholarships that are specific to an individual
college or program. There is no charge to apply for student aid. Among
the U.S. Department of Education Title IV programs offered are Pell
Grants, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG), Federal
Work Study, and federally supported Federal Direct Loan Program. The
colleges also participate in state supported aid programs. Detailed infor-
mation regarding student financial aid can be found on KCTCS’ website.
Student Eligibility and Application
To receive student financial aid from any program in which KCTCS
participates requires meeting established eligibility criteria. A listing of
specific criteria can be found on KCTCS’ website. In general, you must
have a demonstrated need as supported by the Free Application for Fed-
eral Student Aid (FAFSA) and a high school diploma or a General Edu-
cation Development (GED) Certificate. You apply for student aid elec-
tronically by using the U.S. Department of Education’s Web site, www.
fafsa.ed.gov. Applying for student financial aid is free. You will need the
appropriate income tax forms for you and your spouse or you and your
parents (1040, 1040 A, 1040EZ, or 1040 Telefile). If you did not file a
tax return you will need documentation of all sources of income, taxed
or untaxed.
It is recommended that all records and materials used in completing the
application be saved. A percentage of all applicants are randomly selected
by the U.S. Department of Education for a process known as verification.
If selected for verification, documentation must be provided in order to
receive aid. Applying early insures consideration of your information for
maximum funding and applicants are encouraged to apply as soon AF-
TER October 1 as possible.
For questions concerning the U.S. Department of Education Title IV
programs, you may contact the Federal Student Aid Information Cen-
ter between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. (Eastern Time) Monday through Friday:
1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243) or 1-800-730-8913 TDD for hear-
ing impaired; otherwise you can contact your local college financial aid
office.
Dual Enrollment/Consortium Agreements
In some instances, a student may take classes at different KCTCS colleges
and generally count their full enrollment for financial aid purposes. If
students wish to count enrollment hours from other universities towards
their total enrollment specific eligibility requirements apply. Please con-
sult your local student financial aid office for criteria.
Federal Student Loans
KCTCS colleges participate in the Federal Direct Loan Program. You
do not have to be eligible for other federal student aid to participate in
this program. However, a valid FAFSA, completed entrance counseling,
signed master promissory note, and minimum enrollment of six credit
hours are required.
53
Financial Aid
Tax Credits
The U.S. Government grants a tax credit for eligible persons and/or
their dependent attending college filing a federal tax return. The tax
credits are referred to as the HOPE Scholarship and Lifetime Learning
tax credit. Please contact your personal tax advisor regarding your eli-
gibility.
Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)
Federal regulations mandate that a student receiving Federal Student Aid
under Title IV programs must maintain satisfactory academic progress
in his/her course of study regardless of whether or not student aid is
awarded each semester. Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) is mea-
sured with the following standards: Qualitative (cumulative Grade Point
Average of 2.0), Quantitative (Maximum Time Frame of 150 percent of
the credits for completion of their program), and Quantitative Percent-
age (Earned hours/Attempted must equal at least 67 percent).
SAP Appeal Process
Students placed on student aid suspension and having unusual circum-
stances (illness, death in the family, accidents, etc.) and not making
satisfactory academic progress have the right to appeal. However, during
the appeal process persons are responsible for their own expenses, i.e.,
tuition, books supplies, etc.
Suspension Due to GPA
If a student is suspended from Student Aid because his/her cumulative
grade point average does not meet the minimum 2.0 grade point average
(GPA) and they choose to not file an appeal or their appeal is denied, he/
she may take additional classes without Student Aid (unless the student
is academically suspended) to raise his/her cumulative GPA to the 2.0
minimum and, if successful, may be reinstated. If a student is on Aca-
demic Probation or Academic Suspension, he/she will automatically be
on Student Aid Probation or Student Aid Suspension. If a student is rein-
stated from Academic Suspension by appeal or any means, he/she must
appeal his/her Student Aid status separately to be considered for Student
Aid reinstatement eligibility.
Personal Financial Liability - Withdrawing or All “E”s
Students who withdraw from college before attending over 60 percent
of the semester or who stop attending and therefore receive all “E”s may
be financially liable to repay the student aid received. Persons desiring
to withdraw from college must do so according to their college’s with-
drawal policy which can be found on the school’s website. A copy of the
worksheet and examples used for this calculation can be requested from
each KCTCS College’s Office of Student Aid.

They provide information in a variety of formats with circulating print
and audiovisual collections increasingly augmented by access to electron-
ic full-text books and articles as well as other digital content. Thousands
of titles in a variety of media and formats are added to the collections
each year and hundreds of periodical subscriptions are maintained.
KCTCS libraries are staffed with talented, experienced professionals
who provide instruction and guidance to students (both individually and
in the classroom) in the effective use of traditional and electronic infor-
mation resources. Working closely with other faculty members, KCTCS
librarians are important catalysts for the enhancement of information
literacy throughout the commonwealth. They are committed to helping
students achieve competency in information literacy which becomes ever
more crucial in the present age.

more than 520,000 titles owned or licensed by the libraries. Users can
access it and licensed electronic resources from library web pages any
place they have an internet connection and at any time. Circulation
and interlibrary loan services for the physical collections are available

Policies and Procedures
Right to Know
KCTCS colleges support the intent of the Student Right to Know/
Campus Security Act and are committed to providing a safe and secure
environment for all students and employees. Several approaches may be
utilized for crime prevention, such as:
• Burglar alarms
• Campus security officers
• Key control system
• Light sensors
• Local police patrol
• Motion detection system
• Building checks
• Video monitor and closed circuit cameras
• Visitor control processes.
Additionally, crime prevention efforts include the dissemination of infor-
mation at student orientations, faculty in-services, and student organiza-
tion meetings. Conduct that violates the intent of this Act and poses an
unacceptable risk to members of the community of the KCTCS college
shall result in appropriate disciplinary action as defined by policy.
Student Rights and Responsibilities
Each college within KCTCS has a varied and distinguished tradition of
higher education. Each college’s students, faculty, and staff form an aca-
demic community that, while sharing certain characteristics with other
types of associations, organizations, and societies, is rightly considered
unique as a community, and should be governed, respected, and support-
ed as a college community. The System has an obligation to maintain an
atmosphere of academic freedom, to set and maintain standards of schol-
arship and conduct for students at each college, and to provide awareness
for responsible student citizenship in the academic community.
The Student Rights and Responsibilities may be found in the KCTCS Code
of Student Conduct, available on line at KCTCS.edu under “Current Stu-
dents”.
Drug-Free Policy
KCTCS colleges are committed to providing a safe environment for stu-
dents, faculty, and staff. The KCTCS colleges have adopted the following
drug-free policy:
Being under the influence of alcohol or other drugs or the use, posses-
sion, distribution, manufacture, or sale of illegal or unauthorized drugs
is prohibited and is punishable as a felony offense on campus or within
1000 yards of campus. Conduct that violates this definition, poses unac-
ceptable risks, and disregards the health; safety and welfare of members
of the KCTCS college community shall result in disciplinary action up
to and including suspension or termination. The KCTCS Colleges are in
compliance with the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988 and Drug-Free
Schools and Communities Act amendment of 1989.
Sexual Harassment
KCTCS colleges are committed to providing a learning environment
free from sexual harassment. All KCTCS employees and students shall
avoid offensive or inappropriate behaviors. Sexual harassment - a form of
sexual discrimination - includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests for
sexual favors or other verbal or physical actions of a sexual nature when
submission to such conduct is made explicitly or implicitly as a term or
condition of the student’s status in a course, program or activity; or is
used as a basis for academic or other decisions affecting such student; or
when such conduct has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering
with the student’s academic performance or creates an intimidating, hos-
tile or offensive academic environment.
Grievance Procedures
Grievance procedures for students are found in the KCTCS Code of Student
Conduct. Specific details may be obtained by visiting the KCTCS website
at kctcs.edu under “Current Students”.
Student Organizations
Business and industry demand that KCTCS graduates are able to func-
tion in global and team environments. Most programs include a specific
organized professional development component that is interfaced with
student organizations. KCTCS colleges have numerous professional (e.g.
Kentucky Association of Nursing – KANS) as well as career and technical
student organizations (e.g., Skills USA; Health Occupations Student Or-
ganization - HOSA; Professional Business Leaders – PBL). Contact the
college’s student affairs office for details and a complete list of student
organizations. Following are some of the nationally recognized honor
organizations and student councils available to KCTCS students.
National Vocational Technical Honor Society
The NVTHS recognizes students who have shown qualities of leader-
ship, scholarship, skill, responsibility, and service. Each student must
have the recommendation of his or her major instructor and meet the
minimum criteria. Benefits of membership include: the student’s name
will be included in the National Register of Vocational Technical Students
of America, as well as being able to request up to three letters of recom-
mendation written by the National NVTHS. For more information visit:
www.nths.org.
56
Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society
Phi Theta Kappa is the international honor society of two-year colleges.
Each college has its own chapter of this organization. The purpose of Phi
Theta Kappa is to recognize and encourage scholarship among two-year
college students. To achieve this purpose, Phi Theta Kappa and its chap-
ters provide opportunities for the development of leadership and service,
an intellectual climate for exchange of ideas and ideals, lively fellowship
for student scholars, and stimulation of interest in continuing academic
excellence. For more information, contact the Phi Theta Kappa advisor
on each campus.
Student Government
The purpose of the student government is to provide a channel of com-
munication whereby students can express themselves and make their
views known to fellow students, faculty, and administration. The student
government assists in sponsoring and regulating student activities and en-
courages the active participation of students in these activities. It is con-
cerned with student involvement in all aspects of college life along with
an appreciation of the privileges and responsibilities of being a college
student. Members of the student government are elected representatives
of the student body.
Inter-KCTCS College Student Advisory Council
The Student Advisory Council consists of the student body president
from each college. Members of this organization serve in an advisory
capacity to the Vice President responsible for Student Services. The Ad-
visory Council also provides the opportunity for the student body presi-
dents to exchange ideas on topics of mutual concern.
Co-Curricular Activities
Co-curricular activities for students vary among KCTCS colleges. Many
opportunities exist for participation in student government, newspa-
per or literary magazine publication, debating, speech contests, drama,
orchestra, band, choral groups, college-sponsored radio and television
programs, art shows, and intramural sports. Several KCTCS colleges
have joint faculty-student activities such as art exhibits, bowling leagues,
drama productions, and presentation and discussion of selected foreign
and American films.
FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974, as
amended, is a federal law that protects the privacy and confidentiality of
personally identifiable information contained within student education
records. Colleges in the Kentucky Community and Technical College
System comply with FERPA’s confidentiality protections and adhere to
procedures dealing with student education records and directory infor-
mation recommended by the American Association of Collegiate Regis-
trars and Admissions Officers.
In its discretion, a college or KCTCS as appropriate may provide Direc-
tory Information in accordance with the provisions of FERPA to include:
• student name
• address
• email address
• telephone number
• date and place of birth
• major field of study
• dates of attendance
• degrees and awards received
• the most recent previous educational agency or institution attended
by the student
• participation in officially recognized activities and sports
Privacy and Release of Student Records
Students may withhold Directory Information by notifying designated
officials at the college in writing within ten (10) calendar days from the
first scheduled day of class of the fall term or through their self-service
student account. All written requests for non-disclosure will be honored
by the college for one (1) academic year. Requests to withhold Direc-
tory Information must be filed annually thereafter or may be updated in
the student’s self-service student account. A request for “non-disclosure”
is commonly called a “privacy request”. Student Records Maintenance
This is to serve notice to all students of the KCTCS of the rights and
restrictions regarding the maintenance, inspection, and release of student
records contained in the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of
1974 (FERPA). The colleges of KCTCS offer a wide variety of services
to students. Each college requires the maintenance of records concern-
ing students enrolled in that particular college. The following is a list of
the types of records that may be maintained by the College and/or the
System Office for students:
• Academic records from schools previously attended
• Scores or results on various standardized tests and interest/attitude
inventories
• Degrees awarded
• Current academic work completed
• Grades and other faculty evaluations
• Applications for admissions
• Applications and other data related to financial aid
• Applications for employment
• Class rosters
• Letters of recommendation
• Academic advisor notes
• Attendance data
• Biographical and identifying information (including name, social
security number, sex, marital status, date of birth, residency and
citizenship status, ethnic background, academic major, and military
status)
• Medical data
• Current student status
• Accounts relating to charges
• Academic offenses
• Disciplinary offenses
• Counseling notes
The colleges are responsible for the maintenance of records in all catego-
ries.
In general, the records maintained by the college are available only to
the student, to college personnel with legitimate educational interests,
a person or company with whom the College has contracted as its agent
to provide a service, to other institutions where the student is seeking fi-
nancial aid, and to authorized representatives of the Comptroller Gener-
al of the U.S., the Secretary of the U. S. Department of Education, or an
administrative head of an education agency, in connection with an audit
or evaluation of federally supported programs, and as provided by Sec-
tion 164.283 of the Kentucky Revised Statutes. However, information
may be released by the institution to appropriate persons in connection
with an emergency if the knowledge of such information is necessary to
protect the health or safety of a student or other persons. Records may
be disclosed without consent to officials of another school in which a stu-
dent seeks or intends to enroll.

Records may also be furnished in compliance with a judicial order or
pursuant to a subpoena or with the consent of the student.
Students may inspect and review all records pertaining to them within
forty-five (45) days of making requests for the same, except for 1) re-
cords created or maintained by a physician, psychiatrist, psychologist, or
other recognized professional or paraprofessional acting or assisting in
a professional capacity in connection with the treatment of the student
(except that the student may have these records reviewed by a physician
or appropriate professional designated by the student), 2) financial re-
cords of the parents, 3) confidential letters and recommendations put in
the files prior to January 1, 1975, and 4) confidential recommendations
relating to admission, application for employment, or honors, if the stu-
dent waived his or her right to review such records. Where a particular
record cannot be reviewed by a student without revealing confidential
information relating to other students, the records custodian will inform
the student, upon request, of the contents of the record pertaining to
that student.
Appeal
A student who believes that any record maintained by the college, the
college district, or the KCTCS pertaining directly to that student is
inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise violates the right of privacy of
the student as provided by Title IV of Pub.L.90-247, as amended, and
Pub.L.93-380 as amended by Senate Joint Resolution 40 (1974), may
request a hearing before a panel of three persons appointed by the Presi-
dent of the Kentucky Community and Technical College System. The
panel may direct that appropriate action be taken to correct, explain, or
expunge the record(s) challenged.
Requests for hearings should be sent to the Records Custodian, Ken-
tucky Community and Technical College System, 300 N Main St, Ver-
sailles, KY, 40383 and will be addressed in a timely manner.

Academic Services
Introduction
KCTCS colleges offer AA, AS, and AFA degree programs which allow
students to tailor and complete a general course of study to meet their
interests and to fulfill the general education requirements of the first
two years of bachelor degree programs; AAS occupational/technical de-
gree programs to meet workforce needs and which may be transferable
to a bachelor degree; occupational/technical diplomas and certificates
that are also aligned with workforce needs; dual credit courses for high
school students; and continuing education and community service op-
portunities.
All students are encouraged to utilize the advising and transfer services
available to complete programs of study at KCTCS, and to plan for life-
long and continuing education to support academic and career goals.
Advising and transfer services are available to help facilitate students’
progress and success.
Academic Advising
Academic advising is an essential element of the total educational expe-
rience and is available to every KCTCS student. Whether a student is
seeking credentials exclusively from KCTCS or plans to use the educa-
tion obtained at KCTCS to pursue a higher degree at another institution,
academic advising is critical. Advisors strive to assist students in obtain-
ing accurate information about academic requirements, long- and short-
term educational planning, and resources available to assist students in
advancing their academic and professional goals. Students with specific
plans should contact an advisor at the local KCTCS college as soon as
these goals are identified for the most effective advising and planning.
In order to receive academic advising students should consult the local
KCTCS college for information. Students can also refer to the Trans-
fer Contacts listed on pages 59 to 61 on the KCTCS web site at: kctcs.
edu Search words: Transfer Contacts to assist with transfer planning at
KCTCS and a four-year university.
Although academic advisors provide assistance, students are responsible
for knowing institutional policies, procedures, requirements, and seeking
out assistance when needed.
General Education Certications
Students with defined professional/career goals requiring a bachelor’s
degree may choose to begin their education at a community college then
transfer to any four-year college or university. The General Education
Transfer Policy is in place between all public colleges and universities in
Kentucky, and the KCTCS policy regarding general education certifica-
tion is outlined in the KCTCS Rules of the Senate, Section V 5.0.4.
Fully General Education Certied
Students who have successfully completed a general education program
of 33 credit hours (a minimum of 15 hours completed with KCTCS) will
be “fully general education certified”. Students may then transfer these
hours altogether as a block. Students must fulfill any additional pre-ma-
jor requirements of the receiving institution that have not been satisfied
through the courses included in the full General Education certification.
Category Certication
Students who have successfully completed only some categories in the
33-credit hour component will be certified for those categories they
complete. For example, a student who has completed the six-hour Arts
& Humanities requirement of the AA/AS degree may be certified as hav-
ing met the General Education Transfer Policy’s six-hour Arts & Humani-
ties requirement. Students with “category” certification and/or addition-
al coursework must fulfill the remaining general education requirements
for the bachelor degree program.
If you have questions about the General Education Transfer Policy, please
contact your college’s Transfer Contact. Completed general education
certifications are automatically printed on the official transcript. If the
requirements for certification have been completed, but the appropriate
certification is not printed on the transcript, contact the college reg-
istrar’s office to request the appropriate certification be added to your
transcript and request an additional transcript including the certification.
Transfer to Baccalaureate Institutions
All students are encouraged to complete a program of study at KCTCS
and to consider transferring to a bachelor degree program to further
their academic and career goals. The AA and AS degrees include a sub-
stantial amount of general education courses and are designed to accom-
modate transfer. KCTCS has developed a number of transfer agreements
to assist students completing AA, AS, and AAS programs to transfer to
bachelor degree programs. A list of these transfer agreements can be
found at the KCTCS web site at: kctcs.edu Search words: Transfer Agree-
ments.
Transfer Contacts and Services
There are a number people available to assist students with information
about planning and resources for transferring to a bachelor’s degree
program. Students who are interested in transferring, or who just have
questions about transferring, are encouraged to seek information as soon
as possible. Each KCTCS college provides transfer services and has at
least one transfer contact to assist students. Each public and private
postsecondary institution in Kentucky also has staff to provide informa-
tion to KCTCS students about transferring to that specific institution.
Students are encouraged to talk with Transfer Contacts at their KCTCS
college as well as Transfer Contacts at the college or university to which
they want to transfer. A short list of public university Transfer Contacts
is included below for quick reference. A complete list of Transfer Con-
tacts at each KCTCS college and public and private colleges/universi-
ties in Kentucky is available at the KCTCS web site at: kctcs.edu Search

Credit for External Experiences
KCTCS colleges recognize that valid college-level learning experiences
occur outside the traditional classroom setting. Colleges will assist stu-
dents in recognizing appropriate external experiences and applying them
toward a KCTCS credential. Colleges reserve the right to validate stu-
dent competence through the mechanisms described in this section.
Advanced Placement Program
KRS 164.098 requires Kentucky Institutions to award credit for scores of
3 or higher on the Advanced Placement Tests. KCTCS colleges partici-
pate in the Advanced Placement Program of the College Entrance Exam-
ination Board. Interested students should have their official examination

American Council on Education
Students may receive credit for learning experiences in industry, busi-
ness, and government as recommended by the American Council on
Education (ACE). The recommendations for awarding credit appear in
The National Guide to Educational Credit for Training Programs, pub-
lished by the ACE.
Articulation Agreements
Articulation agreements provide a mechanism to accept and award
credit for courses that will transfer toward a credential. Articulation
agreements specify the terms and conditions for courses taken at other
institutions that will apply to a KCTCS credential, and/or the terms and
conditions for courses taken at KCTCS that will apply to credentials or
degree programs at other institutions. In either case, the award of ap-
plicable credit to the credential is subject to the specific terms of each
agreement and all requirements specified in the agreement must be met
before credit can be awarded. For information about articulation agree-
ments for KCTCS credentials, contact the college Student Records Of-
fice. For information about the availability of articulation agreements
that apply to credentials or degree programs at other institutions, consult
the college Student Records Office, the Transfer Contacts on pages 59 to
61, KCTCS Rules of the Senate Section VI Appendix D (kctcs.edu/Facul-
ty_and_Staff/Academic_Affairs.aspx), or the Council on Postsecondary
Education web site at www.cpe.ky.gov .

amination of the Institute for Certifying Secretaries of the Professional
Secretaries International. Students who successfully pass the Certified
Professional Secretary Examination may receive a maximum of 21 credit
hours in specified courses. Students must first complete 12 credit hours
in residence at the college in which they wish to receive credit.

Industry Standard Certication Examinations
Military Service Experience
A student may receive course credit in recognition of collegiate level
credit completed through DSST (DANTES Subject Standardized Tests).
To receive course credit for successful DSST exams, the student must
have received a minimum standard score of 46. Credit will be given only
upon receipt of an official DSST score report or transcript. A student
may receive course credit where appropriate and equivalent courses are
available for formal military training as recommended in A Guide to
the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services (ACE
Guide), published by the American Council on Education.
National Board for Respiratory Care (NBRC) Examination
A student who has passed the NBRC entry-level examination to the Re-
spiratory Care Program will be awarded thirty-seven to thirty-nine (37 –
39) semester hours of credit after completion of at least 15 credit hours
66
of the general education courses in the approved curriculum. The student
must also provide evidence of successful completion of the American
Heart Association Basic Life Support course for health care providers.
Special Exam: STEP or Challenge
Institutionally developed and administered exams provide an opportunity
to demonstrate mastery of course content and receive credit toward pro-
gram requirements. The student must be accepted for admission and en-
rolled in the college and apply for the exam through the Student Records
Office. For more information, see “Tuition and Charges.”
Dual Credit
KCTCS dual credit is concurrent enrollment in high school and a
KCTCS college with credit awarded by both. A high school student
may earn both high school and college credit (dual credit) for the same
course upon completion of course requirements. College credit will be
awarded for courses taken for dual credit with a KCTCS college upon
the student’s completion of the course requirements, and will become
part of the student’s official college transcript. The KCTCS assessment
and placement and grading policies apply to dual credit courses offered
by KCTCS. Additional information about dual credit should is available
at the local KCTCS college.
Non-Classroom Learning Experiences
Work Based Learning Experiences
Many of the diploma and degree programs offered through the colleges
have Work Based Learning included in the curriculum. Work Based
Learning refers to the programs that offer academic credit for degree-
related work experience during a specific semester. The experiences and
credit awarded vary according to the program’s requirements. These
experiences must be planned and supervised by the college and the em-
ployer to ensure that the work experience contributes to the student’s
education and career objective. The cornerstone of Work Based Learn-
ing is Cooperative Education. Other programs that are considered part
of Work Based Learning are Internships, Practicums, and Experiential
Learning. These courses afford the student a unique opportunity to inte-
grate formal classroom training with supervised work experience.
Service Learning
Students have the opportunity to enroll in service learning programs
which are designed to integrate community service with academic in-
struction as it focuses on critical and reflective thinking and civic respon-
sibility. Service learning programs involve students in organized com-
munity service that addresses local needs, while developing academic
skill, sense of civic responsibility, and commitment to the community.
Credit for Prior Learning
Prior Learning Assessment Portfolio students may contact any KCTCS
college for information regarding applications for college credit via port-
folio.
Modularized Credit Courses
Some KCTCS courses are available in a modularized credit format allow-
ing students to register for courses that are components of the full (or
“parent”) course. For example, BAS 212 may be taken as a three credit
course or students may enroll in BAS 2121, BAS 2122, and BAS 2123 as
separate courses which are the equivalent of BAS 212. The sum of the
modular credit courses is equal to the full course. The student transcript
will display the modularized credit course in the term the student earned
the credit and once all components of the full course are earned, the full
course will appear on the transcript. Modular Credit Courses are des-
ignated as a four digit number. The first three digits are those of the par-
ent course. The last digit is the number of the modular credit segment/
component, e.g., XXX 2021, XXX 2022, XXX 2023 or XXX 101A,
XXX 101B, XXX 101C. When a student registers for a General Educa-
tion modularized course, the student must complete all of the courses in
that series to fulfill General Education category requirements, e.g., ECO
101 – 3 credits meets the Social & Behavioral Sciences category require-
ment. If ECO 101 has three modules, ECO 1011, 1012, and 1013, all
three ECO 101 modules must be completed before the Social & Behav-
ioral Sciences category requirement will be fulfilled. The student cannot
take three modularized courses from three different courses to meet the
general education category requirement, e.g., ANT 1011, ECO 1011,
and PSY 1101. Some modular courses require students to complete a
Learning Contract upon registration which defines the student’s respon-
sibilities.
Academic Policies and Rules
Policies Related to Enrollment
Student Load – Full-time Status
Full-time student academic status for the fall and spring term is 12 credit
hours. Full-time student academic status for the summer term is 6
credit hours.
Student Load – Maximum Student Load
The maximum load to be carried during any semester by a student (in-
cluding residence, correspondence, and extension courses) is 19 credit
hours or the number of hours specified in the curriculum for the particu-
lar semester, whichever is larger.
A student who has attained a grade-point average of 3.0 on a load of at
least 15 credit hours for the preceding semester may be permitted by the
college president (or designee) to carry a maximum of three additional
credit hours, provided the total is not in excess of 22 credit hours for the
semester.
Normally, the maximum course load (including residence, correspon-
dence, and extension courses) shall be four credit hours for the four-
week intersession, six hours for the five-week session, seven credit hours
in a six-week session, or 10 credit hours in the eight-week summer
session. A student who has attained a grade point average of 3.0 may
be granted permission by the college president (or designee) to carry
a maximum of five hours in a four-week session, seven hours in the
5-week session, eight hours in a six-week session, 12 hours in an eight-
week session, and fifteen hours in the twelve-week session.
A student on academic probation shall not take more than 15 credit
hours in a semester, three credit hours in a four-week intersession, four
hours in the five-week session, six credit hours in a six-week summer
session, seven credit hours in an eight-week summer session and nine
hours in the twelve-week session.
A student may be registered simultaneously at a KCTCS college and
at another institution only with the approval of the college president
(or designee), the credit hours obtained at the other institution being
considered a part of the student’s maximum load. If the simultaneous
registration has not been authorized, the transfer of credit from the other
institution may be denied.

Academic Services
Grading System
The grading system uses a series of letters, to which are assigned grade-
point values. The system is based neither on an absolute numerical sys-
tem nor on a distribution curve, but on the following descriptions:
A: represents exceptionally high achievement. It is valued at four grade
points for each credit hour in non-remedial and non-developmental
courses.
B: represents high achievement. It is valued at three grade points for
each credit hour in non-remedial and non-developmental courses.
C: represents satisfactory achievement. It is valued at two grade points
for each credit hour in non-remedial and non-developmental courses.
D: represents the minimum achievement for credit. It is valued at one
grade point for each credit hour in non-remedial and non-developmental
courses.
E: represents unsatisfactory achievement and indicates failure in the
course. It is valued at zero credit hours and zero grade points in non-
remedial and non-developmental courses. Credit may be obtained by
repeating the entire course.
F: represents unsatisfactory achievement in a course taken on a Pass-Fail
basis. It has no value in computing the grade point average. Credit may
only be obtained by repeating the entire course. This grade may be used
for developmental courses.
AU (Audit): has no value in computing grade-point average. A student
who has been admitted to the college may elect to enroll in a course(s)
as an auditor, except in selective admissions programs. Auditing courses
in a selective admissions program requires admission to the program
and availability of space in the courses. With few exceptions, any change
from audit to credit by a student fully admitted to a college must be ac-
complished by the last date to enter a class and any change from credit
to audit must be made by mid-term of the semester or session in which
the student is enrolled. An audited class may be taken for credit at a later
date. Anyone who desires to audit a class must be admitted to the col-
lege and officially registered for the course.
I: means that part of the work of the course remains unfinished. It shall
be given only when there is a reasonable possibility that a passing grade
will result from completion of the work. The instructor and student will
discuss the requirements for completion of course with the time limit
for completion not to exceed a maximum of one year; failure to do so
will result in an automatic change of grade from I to E. Each college shall
maintain a record of incomplete grades recorded in courses of that col-
lege. This record, completed by the instructor at the time the I grade is
reported, shall include: (1) the name and number of the student, (2) the
course number and hours of credit, (3) semester or session and year of
enrollment, (4) signature of the instructor, (5) a brief statement of the
reason(s) for recording the incomplete grade, and (6) an adequate guide
for removal of the incomplete grade. In the instructor’s absence, the
division chairperson (or designee), shall forward to the college president
(or designee) the appropriate letter grade to replace the incomplete
grade.
W: represents a withdrawal from class without completing course re-
quirements. A student may officially withdraw from any class up to and
including the date of mid-term with a W grade. After the date of mid-
term and through the last class of the semester or session, any student
may officially request to withdraw from a course and receive a W which
may be given at the discretion of the instructor. Each instructor shall
state on the first or second class meeting the factors to be used in deter-
mining if a student will be allowed to withdraw during the discretionary
period. An instructor shall not assign a student a W for a class unless the
student has officially withdrawn from that class in a manner prescribed
by the college. The grade of W may be assigned by the College Appeals
Board in cases involving a violation of student academic rights or for aca-
demic offenses.
P: represents a satisfactory grade in a course taken on a Pass-Fail basis.
The student who receives a P in a course shall be eligible to continue
into the next sequential course(s). The grade of P may be assigned by the
College Appeals Board in cases involving a violation of student academic
rights. It has no value in computing the grade point average. This grade
may be used for developmental courses.
MP: represents Making Progress and may be assigned only for develop-
mental courses and means that the student has made significant progress
but needs and deserves more time to achieve a passing grade. The stu-
dent should re-enroll in the course in order to continue advancement to
the level of competence set for the course. Grades may be earned fol-
lowing re-enrollment for developmental courses. The grade of MP has
no value in computing grade point average.
Pass/Fail: may be selected for a maximum of two elective courses, sub-
ject to certain restrictions, by students with at least 30 credit hours and
not on academic probation. Courses with these grades can count toward
graduation but are not used in calculating grade-point standing. Courses
taken on a pass-fail basis shall be limited to those considered as elective
in the student’s program, and such other courses or types of courses as
might be specifically approved. Prerequisites for such courses may be
ignored at the student’s own hazard. The student is expected to partici-
pate fully in the course and take all examinations as though the student
were enrolled on a regular basis. Students may not change from a pass-
fail basis nor from a regular basis to a pass-fail basis after the last date for
entering an organized class. Courses offered only on a pass-fail basis,
remedial or developmental, or taken by special examination, shall not be
included in the maximum number of elective courses which a student
may take under these provisions
Changing Grades: A grade once reported shall not be changed except
when the instructor states in writing that an error has been made. The
grade change must be submitted by the end of the following semester
or session or, in exceptional cases, at the discretion of the president (or
designee). However, each respective College Appeals Board may change
a grade to P or W in the case of a violation of student academic rights or
to a W in the case of an academic offense.
Grade-Point Average (GPA): The GPA on the KCTCS transcript is de-
rived from all courses taken at KCTCS institutions. The grade-point av-
erage is the ratio of the total grade points earned to the total credit hours
attempted excluding courses taken on a pass/fail basis and courses with
grades of W or I. Total grade points are derived by multiplying the num-
ber of credit hours for the course by the number of grade points assigned
to the grade earned: A = 4, B = 3, C = 2, D =1, E = 0.
Reporting Final Grades: The final grades for a course shall be filed with
the office of the college president (or designee) by such date as deter-
mined by the academic calendar.
Academic Probation, Academic Suspension, and Reinstatement
Academic Probation: A student earning a cumulative grade point aver-
age below a 2.0 at the end of a term shall be placed on academic proba-
tion. A student shall be removed from academic probation by earning at
least a 2.0 cumulative grade point average.
Academic Suspension (Dismissal): If a student is placed on academic
probation for two consecutive terms (which is noted on the transcript as
68
“subject to dismissal” the second time) and does not earn either a cumu-
lative GPA or a term GPA of at least a 2.0 in the third term, the student
shall be academically suspended. Non-enrollment has no effect on pro-
bation status. The president (or designee) may grant an exception based
upon an individual’s case. A student on academic suspension may not
enroll in courses which count toward a KCTCS degree.
Reinstatement: A student who has been academically suspended may be
reinstated by the president (or designee) after remaining out of the col-
lege for at least one 16-week semester and providing evidence of ability
to perform at the level required. A student who has been academically
suspended shall, upon reinstatement, be placed on academic probation
and be subject to academic suspension if the student has failed to earn a
current term GPA of 2.0 during the first term of reinstatement. Upon a
second suspension, a student may be reinstated by the president (or des-
ignee) after remaining out of the college for at least two 16-week semes-
ters and providing evidence of ability to perform at the level required.
Repeating a Course
A student may repeat a course for the purpose of improving a grade.
The course must be repeated with the same grade option as the origi-
nal enrollment in the course. The highest grade earned in a completed
course shall constitute the official grade for the course and will be the
only grade included within the cumulative GPA. Credit shall count only
once for a KCTCS credential. If a student has been dropped from an
occupation or technical program, course enrollment may be dependent
upon readmission to the program. After a student has completed the
same course twice, a division chair (or designee) in consultation with the
instructor may refuse to approve a third registration in the same course,
including those offered by correspondence, extension, and distance
learning technology. Subject to the approval of the division chair (or des-
ignee), a student may receive approval for a substitution of comparable
courses (e.g. MAT 150 may be taken as a repeat option for MA 109 and
vice versa.). NOTE: A parent course cannot be repeated using modules.
Students who have received passing grade in a parent course are not eli-
gible to enroll in any module of that parent course.
Final Exams
Any student with more than two exams scheduled on one day as de-
scribed in the college’s final exam schedule shall be entitled to have one
of those exams rescheduled. The student must submit a petition for
rescheduling in writing to the instructor no later than one week prior to
the last class meeting.
Dean’s List
The Dean’s List recognizes the academic excellence of students who have
earned an overall semester GPA of 3.5 or higher in courses numbered
100 or above. Honorary certificates of merit are generally awarded to
students who have achieved this distinction.
Academic Bankruptcy (Readmission after Two or More Years)
A student who has been readmitted after having remained out of the
KCTCS colleges for a period of two or more years, and who has com-
pleted at least 12 credit hours in college-level courses with a GPA of
2.0 or better after readmission, may choose to have none of the course
work attempted in the colleges prior to the interruption included in the
computation of the student’s GPA. The calculation of the GPA after the
student declares bankruptcy begins with the semester of readmission. A
student who has elected not to count past work in the computation of
his or her GPA will continue to receive credit for those courses in which
credit was earned with a grade of A, B, C, D, or P prior to readmission,
without including those grades in the computation of the student’s GPA.
A student who has completed a credential and re-enrolls may not apply
the academic bankruptcy rule to courses taken for the credential already
completed. A student may only use the academic bankruptcy option
once.

Certicate
The primary purpose and features of certificate programs of study are
to provide marketable, entry-level skills. Certificates qualify students to
take external licensure, vendor-based, or skill standards examinations in
the field. If standardized external exams are not available in the field of
study, certificates prepare students at skill levels expected of employees
in an occupation found in the local economy.
1. Certificates will address one or more general education competen-
cies.
2. Certificate curricula will be approved through the KCTCS Curricu-
lum process.
3. Certificates will be applicable toward at least one associate degree.
The above are minimum general education requirements; additional
hours may be required in specific program curricula.
Requirements for a certificate are applicable to the requirements of a
diploma or associate degree in the same or a related field of study. Re-
quests for exceptions must include appropriate documentation to justify
approval. Certificates may contain general education courses emphasizing
the skills identified in the Secretary’s Commission on Achieving Neces-
sary Skills (SCANS) report that are critical to entry-level workforce suc-
cess for persons prepared at the certificate level and associated with the
diploma or associate degree program. SCANS identified three foundation
skills and five competencies necessary for success in the workplace.
Foundation Skills
Basic Skills: reading, writing, arithmetic and mathematics, listening, and
speaking;
Thinking Skills: thinking creatively, making decisions, solving problems,
knowing how to learn, and reasoning;
Personal Qualities: individual responsibility, self-esteem, sociability, self-
management, and integrity/honesty.
Competencies
Resources: allocating time, money, materials, space, and staff;
Interpersonal Skills: working on teams, teaching others, serving custom-
ers, leading, negotiating, and working well with people from culturally
diverse backgrounds;
Information: acquiring and evaluating data, organizing and maintaining
files, interpreting and communicating, and using computers to process
information;
Systems: understanding social, organizational, and technological systems,
monitoring and correcting performance, and designing or improving
systems;
71
Academic Services
Technology: selecting equipment and tools, applying technology to spe-
cific tasks, and maintaining and troubleshooting technologies.
Total Credit Hours 12 – 30

Specialized Training
Adult Agriculture
Short-term adult upgrade classes in agriculture are offered at selected
sites. These classes are designed to help young and adult farmers, as
well as individuals employed in agribusiness, keep up with the constantly
changing technology in the field of agriculture. The program provides
on-the-farm and on-the-job supervision year-round with organized in-
structional classes conducted in the late fall and winter. Apprenticeship
Apprenticeship program registration is the responsibility of the Kentucky
State Apprenticeship Council in cooperation with the United States De-
partment of Labor, Bureau of Apprenticeship Training. Application must
be made through an employer, a labor union or a joint apprenticeship
committee. Verify with the KCTCS college that it provides the minimum
144 hours per year of supplemental related instruction required of the
apprenticeship program. Additional information may be obtained by call-
ing the Kentucky Apprenticeship Council or the United States Depart-
ment of Labor, Bureau of Apprenticeship Training.
Continuing Education Courses
Continuing education courses can be either credit or non-credit and are
designed to meet the needs of the labor market and persons preparing
to enter the workforce. They can also supplement knowledge and skills
for initial employment or job advancement. They are developed to meet
the lifelong learning needs of the general public by providing short-term
training, retraining, or upgrading of skills for employment or job ad-
vancement.
Customized Industry Training
At the request of business and industry, Community and Economic
Development Coordinators (CED) assist in the development and imple-
mentation of customized training for prospective and current employees.
A specialized training agreement is developed that specifies the duties
and responsibilities of the college and the company and may include the
awarding of college credit. Contact the CED Coordinator at the local
college.

(Fire, Rescue, EMS or Emergency Management) or if you are already in-
volved in providing fire, rescue or EMS services in your community.
Students may enter the program with or without experience in emer-
gency services. The degree, certificate, and diploma programs that

Digital literacy, also referred to previously as computer literacy, is a topic both broad in its
scope and deep in its detail. As a consequence of this, KCTCS has adopted current Internet
and Computing Core Certification (IC3) objectives to define digital literacy, emphasizing
in particular the three identified, broad categories of Computing Fundamentals, Key
Applications, and Living On-line. A complete listing of the IC3 objectives may be found
at http://www.certiport.com/Portal/desktopdefault.aspx?page=common/pagelibrary/
IC3_Certifications.html
All AA, AS, AFA, AAS, and diploma students graduating from KCTCS
must demonstrate digital literacy by one of the following means within
five years preceding their current admission to a KCTCS college:
1. Scoring a minimum of a 75% composite score on the digital literacy
exam, or
2. Achieving the IC3 Certification, or
3. Articulating credit from another institution which has demonstrated
compliance with the above course criteria as identified by the regis-
trar of the receiving college in cooperation with the digital literacy
faculty of the receiving college, or
4. Receiving credit for an approved KCTCS digital literacy course, or
5. Providing documentation of successful completion of other certifica-
tion exams as approved by KCTCS.
Documentation of digital literacy will be placed on the student’s tran-
script. Students may choose to take the standardized Computer Exam to
demonstrate computer competency. Students who score a passing score
on the exam will have met the requirements of digital literacy and docu-
mentation will be placed on the student’s transcript.
Course Transitions
A significant number of courses have changed prefixes and/or course
numbers. This does not change the ability of the courses to fulfill general
education course requirements as long as courses were eligible at the
time of enrollment. Course changes for General Education courses are
available in Appendices -E (through 2012-2013 academic year). Course
changes for General Education courses that occurred in the 2013-2014
academic year are available in Appendix F.
Employment and Earnings Information

Admission to Programs
Academic requirements are specified for each program and are based on
the level of difficulty and the technical nature of the curriculum. Admis-
sion to some programs is limited by college resources, facilities, accredi-
tation requirements, etc. Contact the Student Services office or program

ent KCTCS colleges, and the Home College accepts all system-wide on-
line courses delivered by other KCTCS colleges. Online courses offered
system-wide and posted at KYVC may be applied toward the required
25 percent of the approved curriculum credits to be completed at the
college granting the degree. The student’s Home College will provide
student services including, but not limited to, admission, advising, regis-
tration, library services, billing and financial aid. Enrolled students will
receive automatic e-mails providing user id and password information
through the student KCTCS e-mail account.
All of the courses required for online programs can be taken fully on-
line; however, some courses may require exams that are proctored and
approved by the instructor. Instructors communicate with students
through the Blackboard Learning Management System (LMS) or through
KCTCS e-mail.
Students may register for KCTCS Online Learn by Term online classes
offered system-wide directly at any KCTCS college. Individuals may also
complete a “course inquiry” submit form through www.kyvc.org. KYVC
course inquiries are submitted directly to the KCTCS Home College
identified by the student. The student’s chosen Home College processes
the course inquiry either through formal admission procedures or class
enrollment.

Skilled Operator, Industrial Refrigeration, Electrical Maintenance Tech-
nician, and Industrial Mechanic certifications. Within each certification
area, a systems approach is employed that is in line with the expectations
of current day employers. The AIT program offers both online course-
work and flexible lab hours.
The AIT graduate will have acquired a high level of mechanical and elec-
trical skill sets that can provide them with opportunities to work in to-
day’s technically advanced industrial settings (both in manufacturing and
value-added 2nd tier support roles). These skill sets include robotics and
PLC programming, drive configuration, advanced electric motor con-
trol, hydraulics/pneumatics, refrigeration and mechanical drive systems
used in modern industry. The curriculum addresses mechanical and elec-
trical theory and its application in today’s industrial environment. Criti-
cal thinking objectives are also incorporated that will expose the student
to problem solving strategies and techniques for troubleshooting the lat-
est generation of high tech equipment.

Construction Technology
The Construction Technology program is designed to prepare students
for entry level positions in the construction industry. Residential and
light commercial construction applications are taught. This program in-
cludes instructional units in blueprint reading, building site layout proce-
dures, foundation systems, light framing construction methods, exterior
and interior finish systems, concrete forming systems and construction
safety. Units of instruction are designed to include lecture and practical
experience in the lab or on-site projects. This program also offers an ex-
cellent prerequisite for students that plan to pursue a career in areas such
as construction management, civil engineering or architectural design.
The Green Building Technology certificate familiarizes students with
the principles of green building technologies and methods of sustainable
construction. Emphasis is placed on green materials used in the con-
struction of buildings along with alternative and/or renewable energy
systems. Covers both Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED) and the National Green Building Standard’s rating systems for
the certification process of green buildings.
Progression in the Construction Technology Program is contingent upon
achievement of a grade of “C” or better in each technical and mathemat-
ics course and maintenance of a 2.0 cumulative grade point average or
better (on a 4.0 scale).

Criminal Justice
The Criminal Justice Program prepares the student for entry level work
in the fields of law enforcement, corrections, court systems, loss safety
and prevention, and other related occupations. The Criminal Justice
vocations evolved from jobs with minimal requirements to employment
positions that require complex knowledge and skills. Criminal Justice
Program Curriculum provides the student with a foundation of theory,
principles, and techniques employed by the criminal justice agencies.
Graduates who complete an AAS Criminal Justice Degree may seek job
opportunities on the federal, state, county, municipal levels of govern-
ment, and private sectors of the criminal justice field.
Progression in the Criminal Justice Program is contingent upon the
achievement of a grade of “C” or better in each CRJ course and mainte-
nance of a 2.0 cumulative grade point average or better (on a 4.0 scale).
The grading scale for criminal justice courses with a Pass/Fail scale, the
grade of “P or Pass” meets the requirement for the Criminal Justice Pro-
gram.
Criminal Justice Program Certificates are embedded in the Criminal
Justice AAS Degree. The certificates are not stand alone certificates;
therefore a student cannot receive financial aid for just a certificate. The
student must be a Criminal Justice AAS Degree seeker in order to obtain
program certificates.
Criminal background checks are currently not required for the Criminal
Justice AAS Program; however students should understand that certain
disqualifiers may hinder employment in the field of criminal justice.
Such disqualifiers include, but are not limited to the following: criminal
convictions, substance abuse, offensive social media activities, excessive
traffic related offenses, and visible tattoos and body piercings. Students
seeking employment in the criminal justice field or related field should
research the requirements and disqualifiers of their desired areas or
agencies of employment.

Diagnostic Medical Sonography
Diagnostic Medical Sonography is a highly-skilled profession which uses
specialized equipment to create images of structures inside the human
body used by physicians to make medical diagnoses. Graduates of the
program are qualified to provide patient services using diagnostic tech-
niques under the supervision of a licensed physician.
This program contains four tracks, the general/vascular track, the gen-
eral track, the vascular track and the cardiac track. The general/vascular
track prepares the graduate to be a general sonographer who is qualified
to perform vascular ultrasound. Sonographers have extensive, direct
patient contact that may include performing some invasive procedures.
The general track prepares the graduate to perform sonograms on the
abdominal, small parts and OB/GYN applications. The vascular track
prepares the graduate to perform sonograms on the cerbrovascular,
peripheral arterial, peripheral venous and abdominal vascular applica-
tions. The cardiac track prepares the graduate to perform cardiovascular
sonograms.
Sectional anatomy, ultrasonic instrumentation and imaging are the major
components in this program. Skills are developed through clinical expe-
riences using diagnostic imagery equipment.
An advanced option (certificate) in vascular sonography is offered for
candidates who are currently employed and registry eligible in Diagnos-
tic Medical Sonography.
The student is exposed to and expected to acquire skills, attitudes, and
habits that are generally common to all professionals in the medical field.
Graduates will be prepared for a professional career in the opted sonog-
raphy field.
CPR requirement must be successfully completed prior to enrolling in
the first sonography course and must be kept current throughout the
program. Documentation of successful completion of a minimum 75
hour nursing assistant course or its equivalent and digital literacy com-
petency as defined by KCTCS are required prior to enrolling in the first
sonography course.
Progression in the Diagnostic Medical Sonography program is contingent
upon achievement of a grade of “C” or better in each Sonography course
and maintenance of a 2.0 cumulative grade point average or better (on a
4.0 scale).
Transportation to the community agencies is the responsibility of each
student.

Emergency Medical Services - Paramedic
Provides a comprehensive course of study that prepares the graduate for
licensure as a Paramedic (EMTP). The curriculum is structured based
on the National EMS Education Standards and regulations set forth by
the Kentucky Board of Emergency Medical Services (KBEMS). The
three-phase curriculum is designed to provide the student with the cog-
nitive knowledge, psychomotor skills, and affective behaviors necessary
to competently perform as a Paramedic. The EMS program prepares
students to function in the emergency medical profession as a Paramedic
in a variety of environments. Graduates primarily provide pre-hospital
emergency care to acutely ill and/or injured individuals while working
on an ambulance, mobile advanced life support unit, industrial on-site
unit, fire department, emergency department, and other agencies.
Graduates are eligible to apply to take the National Registry Paramedic
Exam. Students may earn either a Certificate or Associate in Applied
Science Degree at the Paramedic level. Credit may be awarded to cur-
rently practicing paramedics towards the Associate in Applied Science
Degree. Enrollment in this program is limited; therefore, a selective
admissions process is followed. Students are required to hold current
unrestricted certification as an EMT in Kentucky or hold current unre-
stricted registration with the National Registry EMT as an EMT to be
eligible for paramedic program admission.
Acceptance into the EMS-Paramedic Program is based upon a selective
admissions process. In order to be considered for admission, applicants
must comply with college and program admission requirements. Ap-
plicants must present current, unrestricted state certification or proof of
National Registry of EMT eligibility to become state certified. Licensed
paramedics may receive credit towards the Associate of Applied Science
in Emergency Medical Services – Paramedic. When eligible, the licensed
paramedic will be awarded thirty-eight (38) semester credit hours upon
the completion of: a) applying to the college of choice; b) submit-
ting a letter of intent and a copy of the required licensure/certification
document to the program coordinator with subsequent validation by
the Registrar; and c) completing at least nine (9) credit hours from the
degree-granting institution. Credit will be awarded as follows: 4 credit
hours/EMS 200 Introduction to Paramedicine; 3 credit hours/EMS
210 Emergency Pharmacology; 3 credit hours/EMS 220 Cardiovascular
Emergencies; 4 credit hours/EMS 230 Traumatic Emergencies; 3 credit

Trauma Lab; 1 credit hour/EMS 231 Medical Lab; 1 credit hour/EMS
215 Clinical Experience I; 1 credit hour/EMS 225 Clinical Experience
II; 2 credit hours/EMS 235 Clinical Experience III. Students must meet
the twenty-five percent (25%) residency requirements of the degree-
granting institution.
Students select their career option preference, certificate or degree, ei-
ther during advising or upon admission to the program, but may choose
to change their career path while in the program without reapplying for
admission to the college.
Student can receive a certificate as an Electrocardiogram Technician by
completing EMS 150. EMS 150 will prepare students to perform and

Equine Studies
The Equine Studies Program prepares students for entrance into the
equine workforce with a focus on the thoroughbred racing industry. A
core curriculum provides students with a foundation of knowledge ap-
plicable to any career in the equine workforce. Students will learn the
basics of horse care, anatomy and physiology, lameness, health and nutri-
tion and equine business principles. Students will also learn all aspects of
the equine industry as it relates to the thoroughbred industry including
organizations, regulations, and the life skills necessary for successful ca-
reers in the industry.
The program of study provides a foundation of education and training
geared toward the expectations of employers in the equine/thorough-
bred industries within two degree areas: Jockey Track and Horseman
Track. Imbedded within the curriculum for each track are diplomas and
certificates that provide the basic foundational skills for entry or mid-
level employment in the respective area of the industry.
Jockey Track degree and diploma graduates will have the knowledge and
skills for a career as a professional rider. Students will learn principles of
balance as it relates to efficient racehorse exercise; proper position and
use of hands, arms, feet, legs, back and head when riding or exercising
a racehorse; requirements for advancing to a professional jockey career;
and life skills necessary to be a professional racehorse rider or jockey.
Imbedded within the Jockey Track curriculum is the Exercise Rider Cer-
tificate that provides basic skills and techniques to prepare the student to
become a professional exercise rider.
Horseman Track graduates will have the knowledge and skills for a ca-
reer in the equine/thoroughbred workforce such as grooms, assistant
trainers, racing officials, farm management, bloodstock agents and other
professions in the racing and breeding industries. Students will learn
the principles and techniques as they relate to the breaking, prepping
and training of horses; health and nutrition; equine management; and
life skills necessary to be a professional in the equine/thoroughbred
workforce. Imbedded in the Horseman Track curriculum is the Race-
horse Care and Breaking Certificate to provide students with the basics
of horse care and principles and techniques as they relate to the breaking
and prepping of horses.
Other Certicates:
The Equine Industry Workforce Certificate will prepare students for
entry level careers in the equine industry. Students will learn the basics
of equine studies, equine physiology, and care of the racehorse. Lec-
ture classes will be provided online through BCTC/NARA, while the
hands-on laboratory work associated with the courses may be offered by
BCTC/NARA or in partnerships with other KCTCS colleges and race-
courses within their districts.
The Veterinary Assistant Certificate will prepare students for application
into the AAS in Veterinary Technology program at Morehead State Uni-
versity. Students will receive a core of general education courses, as well
as an introduction to animal sciences and physiology. The racehorse care
class and one credit hour of co-operative education in a local veterinary
clinic will provide the student with the work experience/job shadowing
hours typically required for consideration of acceptance into a Veterinary
Technology program.

General Occupational/Technical Studies
The Associate in Applied Science degree in General Occupational/
Technical Studies provides flexible alternatives for meeting student and
employer needs. This program serves two general purposes: 1) Individ-
ualized program – provides a flexible curriculum that can be designed to
meet specifics student and workplace needs, and 2) Degree completion –
provides a structure through which credit may be granted for significant
prior learning experiences in occupational/technical areas.
Credit earned through certificate and diploma program completion will
be applicable toward the Associate in Applied Science in General Occu-
pational/Technical Studies degree when consistent with the objectives of
the student’s individual plan of study. This heavily advisor-driven model
can combine certificates and/or diplomas in different disciplines for
meeting employer needs for unique skill combinations for which there
is no established degree program. As much as twenty hours of credit
for experiential learning may be applied toward degree completion.
KCTCS certificate and diploma credit and acceptable credit transferred
from other colleges may also be applied to a student’s program comple-
tion plan. At least 25 percent of the approved curriculum credits must
be completed at the KCTCS institution granting the degree.

Two programs are offered under the broader heading of MIT.
They are Electrical Technology
and Industrial Maintenance Technology
MIT: Electrical Technology
The Electrical Technology Program focuses on preparing students for
various entry-level electrical positions in industry and the building
trades. The study of electrical theory in the classroom and the practical
application of that theory in labs provide the foundation of this program.
This program is versatile in offering three different tracks within the As-
sociate of Applied Science degree. A variety of certificates and diplomas
serve as pathways to the AAS degree tracks or as meeting specific train-
ing needs.
Students enrolled in the Electrical Technology program are required to
achieve a minimum grade of “C” in the technical core and in those cours-
es selected as technical electives.

MIT: Industrial Maintenance Technology
Industrial Maintenance Track:
An understanding of the requirements and opportunities in maintenance,
good safety practices, pride in workmanship, and an understanding of the
principles and accepted practices of the maintenance trade are covered in
this program. Students are trained to hold positions in factories, hospi-
tals, hotels, etc., where multi-skilled maintenance personnel are needed.
Included are courses in air conditioning, carpentry, electricity, machine
tool, metal fabrication, and welding.
Progression in the Industrial Maintenance Technology program is con-
tingent upon achievement of a grade of “C” or better in each technical
course and maintenance of a 2.0 cumulative grade point average or bet-
ter (on a 4.0 scale).
Advanced Manufacturing Technician Track
Advanced Manufacturing requires demonstrating multiple skills and
competencies. Students accepted into this program gain valuable work-
place experience, working three (3) days in a manufacturing environ-
ment and two (2) days on campus in a manufacturing-based classroom.
Critical conceptual components of the track include embedded Safety
Culture, Workplace Organization (5S), Lean Manufacturing, Problem
Solving and Maintenance Reliability, coupled with Personal Behavior
development (Attendance, Communication, Diligence, Teamwork, Initia-
tive, and Interpersonal Relations) within the program pathway. Success-
ful students apply learned skills throughout the program in the campus
classroom, campus laboratory and manufacturing workplace. The ad-
vanced manufacturing technician (AMT) track develops multiple skills
within the industrial maintenance pathway for manufacturing employers.
Progression in the Industrial Maintenance Technology program is con-
tingent upon achievement of a grade “C” or better in all courses and
maintenance of a 2.0 cumulative grade point average or better (on a 4.0
scale).
AMTEC Track
This program affords students the opportunity to achieve an understand-
ing of the advanced skills needed to obtain a successful career in a
constantly changing and globally competitive workforce. Students are
trained in the multi-skilled maintenance trade with an emphasis on those
skills needed in automotive industrial facilities.
Progression in the Industrial Maintenance AMTEC track is contingent
upon achievement of a grade of “C” or better in each technical course
and maintenance of a 2.0 cumulative grade point average or better (on a
4.0 scale).

Medical Assisting
A medical assistant is an integral member of the health care delivery
team, qualified by education and experience to work in the administra-
tive office, the examining room and the physician’s laboratory. Individu-
als in this unique position will be involved in many of the following skills:
General: project a professional manner and image, adhere to legal and
ethical principles, use medical terminology effectively, and use effective
and correct verbal and written communication.
Administrative: schedule, coordinate and monitor appointments, per-
form telephone and written communications, arrange hospital admis-
sions, manage medical records, process insurance claim forms, manage
office financial records, and maintain inventory.
Clinical: prepare patient for examination procedures and treatment,
record medical histories, take vital signs, chart patient information,
administer medications and injections, provide patient instruction and
education, perform venipunctures, collect and prepare other specimens,
perform electrocardiograms (ECG), sterilize instruments, and perform
basic laboratory tests.
With additional education, the medical assisting graduate may perform
limited radiography.
The Medical Assistant is a vital liaison between the doctor and patient
and plays an important role in diagnosis and treatment. The many differ-
ent roles assumed in this profession assure a fast moving and challenging
career.
Progression in the Medical Assisting program is contingent upon achieve-
ment of a grade of “C” or above in each required course and maintenance
of a 2.0 cumulative grade-point average or above (on a 4.0 scale).
Clinical orientation and externship are “non-paid work assignments.”
CPR requirements must be successfully completed prior to enrolling
in the first clinical externship and must be kept current throughout the
program.
Transportation to the physician’s offices/community agencies is the re-
sponsibility of each student.
According to the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Educa-
tion Programs (CAAHEP), all accredited medical assisting program
related courses must be taught by approved faculty and meet the require-
ments according to CAAHEP standards and guidelines.

Nuclear Medicine
and Molecular Imaging Technology
The Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging Technology (NMMIT)
program prepares the individual to work in the field of Nuclear Medi-
cine and Molecular Imaging. Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging
is the medical specialty that utilizes the nuclear properties of radioactive
and stable nuclides to make diagnostic evaluation of the anatomic or
physiologic conditions of the body and to provide therapy with unsealed
radioactive materials. The skills of the nuclear medicine technologist
complement those of the nuclear medicine physician and other profes-
sionals in the field. Nuclear medicine technologists have responsibilities
in the following areas: (a) patient care and monitoring, (b) technical
skills related to radiation safety, radiopharmacy, clinical instrumentation,
diagnostic and therapeutic procedures (including hybrid imaging and
emerging technologies), quality control, and computers, and (c) admin-
istrative functions related to supplies and equipment, documentation of
operations related to disposition of radioactive materials, quality control
data, and patient records.
The NMMIT program is a selective admission program. A student must
earn a grade of C or better in the prerequisite and concurrent mathemat-
ics and science courses to be admitted to and to remain enrolled in the
program. Also, a student must earn a grade of C or better in each of the
NMMIT courses to be retained in the program. After graduation from
the program, the individual is eligible to write either the Nuclear Medi-
cine Technology Certification Board (NMTCB) or the American Registry
of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) nuclear medicine technology ex-
amination to earn credentials. Please see the guidelines for the selective
admission requirements to the Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging
Technology program.
Documentation of computer literacy as defined by KCTCS is required
prior to enrolling in the first NMI course.

Nursing
The Associate Degree Nursing program prepares graduates to use their
skill and knowledge to fulfill the role of the nurse: enhance human flour-
ishing, demonstrate sound nursing judgment, continually develop profes-
sional identity, and possess a spirit of inquiry to improve the quality of
patient care. Encompassed within these roles are the core components
of context and environment, knowledge and science, personal/profes-
sional development, quality and safety, relationship-centered care, and
teamwork. These core components are introduced, developed and built
upon through the curriculum. Graduates are eligible to take the National
Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).
The Associate Degree Nursing curriculum is organized around a clearly
defined conceptual framework and combines general education and nurs-
ing courses. The nursing courses correlate classroom and clinical instruc-
tion in a variety of community agencies. *
Acceptance into the Associate Degree Nursing program is based on a
selective admissions process. In order to be considered for admission, ap-
plicants must comply with college and program admission requirements
prior to March 1 for admission to a fall NSG 101 course (July 1 for ad-
mission to a spring NSG 101 course).
Progression in the Associate Degree Nursing program is contingent upon
achievement of a grade of “C” or better in each biological science, nurs-
ing and mathematics course and maintenance of a 2.0 cumulative grade
point average or better (on a 4.0 scale).
CPR requirements must be successfully completed prior to enrolling in
the first nursing course and must be kept current throughout the pro-
gram. Documentation of successful completion of a minimum 75-hour
nursing assistant course, or its equivalent, and documentation of com-
puter literacy as defined by KCTCS is required prior to enrolling in the
first nursing course.
*Transportation to the community agencies is the responsibility of each
student.
Note: The Kentucky Board of Nursing may deny a nursing graduate ad-
mission to the NCLEX-RN Exam if an individual has been convicted of
a misdemeanor or felony which involves acts that bear directly on the
qualifications of the graduate to practice nursing.

Nursing – Academic/Career
Mobility Program
The Academic/Career Mobility Program provides a seamless educational
option in nursing with two exit points allowing students to choose a
career as an LPN or RN. The program is implemented in a shared frame-
work which prepares graduates to use their skill and knowledge to fulfill
the role of the nurse: enhance human flourishing, demonstrate sound
nursing judgment, continually develop professional identity, and possess
a spirit of inquiry to improve the quality of patient care. Encompassed
within these roles are the core components of context and environment,
knowledge and science, person/professional development, quality and
safety, relationship-centered care, and teamwork. These core compo-
nents are introduced, developed, and built upon through the curriculum;
however, distinct parameters have been established that support the PN
and RN scopes of nursing practice. The curriculum is structured around
a clearly defined organizing framework and provides the foundation for
a competency-based approach to nursing education through the utili-
zation of interactive and student-focused learning strategies. Content
and performance-based outcomes for the nursing courses are selected,
developed, and leveled from simple to complex. Students who success-
fully complete the first year will receive a diploma qualifying them to
187
Academic Curricula
apply for licensure as practical nurses. Following successful completion
of the second year, students will receive the Associate in Applied Science
Degree in Nursing qualifying them to apply for licensure as registered
nurses.
Acceptance into the program is based on a selective admissions process.

Nursing - Integrated Nursing
The Integrated Nursing Program provides a seamless educational path-
way in nursing which allows students to choose multiple career options.
The Integrated Nursing Program is designed to deliver nursing education
to a cohort of students with the opportunity to complete the Practical
Nursing (PN) or Associate Degree Nursing level. The curriculum is
structured around a clearly defined organizing framework and provides
the foundation for a competency-based approach to nursing education
through the utilization of interactive and student-focused learning strate-
gies. Content and performance-based outcomes for the nursing courses
are selected, developed, and leveled from simple to complex. Classroom
instruction in theory and basic nursing skills is provided in various de-
livery methods. Under the guidance of program faculty, students gain
valuable experience in the care of patients across the lifespan in a variety
of healthcare settings and/or community agencies including hospitals,
long-term care facilities, clinics and child care centers.
After three semesters the student has the option to exit as a PN by en-
rolling in the PN exit course. This option prepares graduates to function
within the legal scope of practice under the supervision of a registered
nurse or physician. The practical nursing level focuses on the mainte-
nance of health and prevention of illness, the observation and nursing
care of individuals experiencing changes in their health processes, and
the evaluation of health practices of patients. Students who choose prac-
tical nursing as a career can complete the components in three semesters
and are eligible to apply for licensure as a practical nurse. Graduates are
eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical
Nurses (NCLEX-PN).
The Associate Degree Nursing option prepares graduates to provide and
manage patient care and to become members within the discipline of
nursing. The associate nursing level focuses on the application of a spe-
cialized body of knowledge and skills obtained from social and biological
188
sciences in providing evidenced-based, clinically competent care to in-
dividuals across the life span. Students choosing the Associate in Applied
Science degree in Nursing can complete the components in four semes-
ters and are eligible to apply for licensure as a registered nurse. Gradu-
ates are eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination for
Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).
Acceptance into the Integrated Nursing Program is based upon a selec-
tive admissions process. In order to be considered for admission, appli-
cants must comply with college and program admission requirements.
Active status as a Kentucky State Registered Nurse Aide is required prior
to enrolling in the first integrated nursing course. Licensed practical
nurses may receive credit for the first semester of nursing based upon
specific college offerings, work experience, and active Kentucky or com-
pact state licensure status.
Progression within the Integrated Nursing Program is contingent upon
achievement of a grade of “C” or better in all program course require-
ments and maintenance of a 2.0 cumulative grade point average or better
(on a 4.0 scale).
If more than three years have elapsed since initial enrollment in any nurs-
ing program, an applicant must repeat all nursing courses.
A nursing graduate with a misdemeanor or felony conviction may be de-
nied permission to access the NCLEX by the Kentucky Board of Nursing.

Occupational Therapy
Assistant
The Occupational Therapy Assistant Program is designed to provide a
quality educational experience that will train prospective professionals in
the art and science of promoting and maintaining the holistic health and
wellness of people, organizations, and populations through engagement
in occupation. Graduates will be able to perform/engage as entry level
professionals under the supervision of an Occupational Therapist (OT).
Graduates will develop skills necessary for employment as Certified Oc-
cupational Therapy Assistants, thereby meeting the students’ individual
needs and the expressed health-care needs of the local and extended
communities served by the Colleges. The program strives to fill a grow-
ing need for professionals able to contribute to all facets of occupational
therapy, from community-based programs to client-centered interven-
tion. The program promotes the value and professional importance of
life-long learning.
A basic background in natural sciences, mathematics, communication,
and behavioral sciences undergirds the specialized course work. Special-
ized course work prepares students for the certification examination they
will take to become Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants (COTA).
Employment may be in hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, nursing homes,
clinics, and other health care facilities, as well as within pediatric, com-
munity, or educational settings.
Acceptance in to the OTA program is based on a selective admission
process. In order to be considered for admission, applicants must comply
with college and program admissions requirements. Students enrolled in
the OTA program must achieve a minimum grade of a “C” in each OTA
course and prerequisite courses.
CPR requirement must be successfully completed prior to enrolling in
the first semester of OTA program. The CPR course must be Profes-
sional or Healthcare Provider.
Background check and drug screen prior to admission is required by all
students, and students with a misdemeanor or felony conviction may be
denied permission to access fieldwork sites.
Students will be responsible for their own transportation for fieldwork.
Documentation of computer literacy as defined by KCTCS is required
prior to enrolling in the first OTA course.
All prerequisite courses must be complete before a student is admitted in
the OTA program.
The Occupational Therapy Assistant Program is accredited by the Ac-
creditation Council on Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE), of
the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA), 4720 Mont-
gomery Lane, Suite 200 Bethesda, MD 20814-3449 Phone number:
(301) 652-(AOTA). www.acoteonline.org
Graduates of the program will be able to sit for the national certification
examination for the occupational therapy assistant administered by the
National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT). Af-
ter successful completion of this exam, the individual will be a Certified
Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA). Most states require licensure in
order to practice; however, state licenses are usually based on the results
of the NBCOT Certification Examination.
Note: An OTA graduate with a misdemeanor or felony conviction may
be denied permission to access the NBCOT certification exam. The stu-
dent is responsible for contacting NBCOT prior to admission.

Radiography
This program prepares the individual to become a radiographer. The ra-
diographer is prepared to administer ionizing radiation for medical diag-
nostic imaging purposes. Emphasis is on radiation protection and quality
patient care. The curriculum is comprised of specialized courses in radi-
ography with concentrated study in the basic sciences, mathematics and
general education. Students enrolled in the Radiography program must
achieve a minimum grade of “C” in each Radiography course, required
natural science course, and required quantitative reasoning course. Upon
199
Academic Curricula
completion of the program, the graduate is eligible to apply to write the
examination for registration as a radiographer by the American Registry
of Radiologic Technologists. Radiographers may find positions in hos-
pitals, health clinics, and physicians’ offices. Research laboratories and
some industrial firms may also employ radiographers. The curriculum
requires attendance in the summer session, fall and spring semesters.
Note: CPR certificate must be obtained prior to enrolling in IMG 100 or
IMG 104, IMG 106 and IMG 108 and certification must be kept current
throughout the program. Note: Documentation of digital literacy as de-
fined by KCTCS is required prior to admission to IMG courses.
Advanced Imaging in Radiography focuses on the areas of Computed
Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in the Radio-
logical Sciences. Didactic and clinical instruction prepares the technolo-
gist to work in the areas of CT and MRI in the healthcare setting and
to sit for the Advanced Board Exams given by the American Registry of
Radiologic Technologists. These courses are offered for technologists
who are currently registered by the American Registry of Radiologic
Technologists in Radiography or the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certi-
fication Board in Nuclear Medicine, or students who have completed one
year and are currently enrolled in an accredited radiography or nuclear
medicine program, or by consent of the instructor. The core curriculum
courses are intended to provide the student with an overall knowledge
of advanced patient care and sectional anatomy. The CT and MRI tracks
focus on the physics, instrumentation and imaging techniques of these
modalities. The student may choose CT or MRI or both. Although these
courses are organized in a hierarchical pattern, depending on the entry-
level knowledge and the needs of the student, they may be taken out of
sequence with consent of the instructor.
Note: Hours Exception (71-75 for the A.A.S. and 56-62 for the Diploma) approved by the
KCTCS Board of Regents in June 2010.

Security Management
The Security Management Coordinator program provides a comprehen-
sive overview of physical security policies, procedures and techniques.
Topics covered are perimeter protection, intrusion detection, access
control, CCTV, locks and locking devices, lighting, security design and
surveys, contingency planning, and acts of violence. Instruction in all
types of security hardware: electronic and mechanical door locks, access
control systems and their devices, as well as intrusion detection systems
and cameras, safes and safe hardware is available.
The Supply Chain Security program provides an overview of the needs
and requirements for a safe, secure supply chain. The program looks at
threats, and offers solutions. The House Select Committee on Homeland
Security issued a comprehensive assessment (February 2004) on the
United State’s levels of preparation against terrorist activity. The Com-
mittee concluded in part “Pathways to the United States by land, sea and
air are insecure.” Security throughout transportation, storage, ship-
ping and receiving of cargo is addressed in this program. The concept
of proactive verses reactive, planning and the overall needs of a security
operation are discussed. Specific security systems are discussed, as well
as the creation and implementation of security policies. Basic security
equipment and procedures, including perimeter protection, intrusion
detection, security surveys and CCTV systems are covered, as well as
management issues to include terrorism, crisis management and basic
guard force management. A Security Design section of the program
looks at ways to maximize the security benefit within operational (finan-
cial and aesthetic) constraints.
The Antiterrorism Physical Security Specialist program provides a com-
prehensive overview of a physical security program. Topics covered are
access control systems; intrusion detection, both interior and exterior;
crisis management; national incident management systems; contracting
guard forces; international and domestic terrorism and their threat to
America; security surveys/security audits; managing a security opera-
tion; IT security; CCTV; contingency planning; locks and locking de-
vices; workplace violence; and perimeter security.
The Safe & Lock Technician program provides a comprehensive hands-on
knowledge of safes and locks. This program will provide the technician
with the training to service, maintain and troubleshoot safes and locks.
Topics covered are electronic access control systems, safe lock servicing
– electronic and mechanical, combination lock manipulation, basic safe
penetration, locks and locking devices, safe and safe hardware, security
hardware, electronic and mechanical door locks.
For all programs: Students will be required to undergo a criminal back-
ground investigation. If a student is presently employed by a law en-
forcement or federal agency that requires criminal checks, this require-
ment may be waived by LSI.

Surgical First Assisting
The Surgical First Assistant provides aid in exposure, hemostasis, and
other technical functions that will help the surgeon carry out a safe
operation with optimal results for the patient. This role will vary con-
siderably with the surgical operation, specialty area, and type of facility.
Clinical skills performed under direct supervision of the surgeon include
the following: positioning the patient, preparing the skin, providing vi-
sualization of the operative site, utilizing appropriate techniques to assist
with hemostasis, participating in volume replacement or auto transfusion
techniques as appropriate, utilizing appropriate techniques in the closure
of body planes, selecting and applying appropriate wound dressings and
providing assistance in securing drainage system to tissue.
This program provides clinical experience built upon classroom instruc-
tion in the basic sciences, patient care, aseptic techniques and surgical
procedures. Students enrolled in the Surgical First Assistant Program
are required to achieve a minimum grade of “C” in each Surgical First
Assistant course. Graduates from the program are eligible to take the
certifying exams offered by the National Surgical Assistant Association

Surgical Technology
Surgical technologists are allied health professionals who are an integral
part of the team of medical practitioners providing surgical care to pa-
tients in a variety of settings such as medical offices, out-patient clinics,
and the operating room.
The surgical technologist works under medical supervision to facilitate
the safe and effective conduct of invasive surgical procedures. This in-
dividual works under the supervision of a surgeon to ensure that the
operating room environment is safe, that equipment functions properly,
and that the operative procedure is conducted under conditions that
maximize patient safety.
A surgical technologist possesses expertise in the theory and application
of sterile and aseptic techniques and combines the knowledge of human
anatomy, surgical procedures, and implementation tools and technolo-
gies to facilitate a physician’s performance of invasive therapeutic and
diagnostic procedures.
This program provides clinical experience built upon classroom instruc-
tion in the basic sciences, patient care, aseptic techniques and surgical
procedures. Students enrolled in the Surgical Technology Program are
required to achieve a minimum grade of “C” in each course required for
the credential. Students who withdraw from or earn less than a “C” in
any course with a Surgical Technology prefix will be dropped from the
Surgical Technology program and must reapply for admission. CPR (for
Healthcare Providers) course must be completed prior to the first surgi-
cal technology skills practicum course and must remain current through-
out the Surgical Technology program.
Students who have completed program requirements must sit for the
certifying examination offered by the National Board on Certification for
Surgical Technology and Surgical Assisting (NBSTSA), 6 West Dry Creek
Circle, Suite 100; Littleton, CO 80120; Phone: (800) 707 0057; www.

for Admission and Tuition Purposes
13 KAR 2:045.
RELATES TO: KRS Chapter 13B, 164.020, 164.030, 164A.330(6)
STATUTORY AUTHORITY: KRS 164.020(8)
NECESSITY, FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 164.020(8) requires
the Council on Postsecondary Education to determine tuition and approve the
minimum qualifications for admission to a state postsecondary education institu-
tion and authorizes the Council to set different tuition amounts for residents
of Kentucky and for nonresidents. This administrative regulation establishes the
procedure and guidelines for determining the residency status of a student who
is seeking admission to, or who is enrolled at, a state-supported postsecondary
education institution.
Section 1 Definitions
(1) “Academic term” means a division of the school year during which a course of
studies is offered, and includes a semester, quarter, or single consolidated sum-
mer term as defined by the institution.
(2) “Continuous enrollment” means enrollment in a state-supported postsec-
ondary education institution at the same degree level for consecutive terms,
excluding summer term, since the beginning of the period for which continuous
enrollment is claimed unless a sequence of continuous enrollment is broken due
to extenuating circumstances beyond the student’s control, including serious
personal illness or injury, or illness or death of a parent.
(3) “Degree level” means enrollment in a course or program that could result in
the award of a:
(a) Certificate, diploma, or other program award at an institution;
(b) Baccalaureate degree or lower, including enrollment in a course by a
nondegree-seeking postbaccalaureate student;
(c) Graduate degree or graduate certification other than a first-professional
degree in law, medicine, dentistry, or “Pharm.D”; or
(d) Professional degree in law, medicine, dentistry, or “Pharm. D”.
(4) “Dependent person” means a person who cannot demonstrate financial
independence from parents or persons other than a spouse and who does not
meet the criteria for independence established in Section 5 of this administrative
regulation.
(5) “Determination of residency status” means the decision of a postsecondary
education institution that may include a formal hearing that results in the clas-
sification of a person as a Kentucky resident or as a nonresident for admission and
tuition assessment purposes.
(6) “Domicile” means a person’s true, fixed, and permanent home and is the place
where the person intends to remain indefinitely, and to which the person expects
to return if absent without intending to establish a new domicile elsewhere.
(7) “Full-time employment” means continuous employment for at least forty-
eight (48) weeks at an average of at least thirty (30) hours per week.
(8) “Independent person” means a person who demonstrates financial indepen-
dence from parents or persons other than a spouse and who meets the criteria for
independence established in Section 5 of this administrative regulation.
(9) “Institution” means an entity defined by KRS 164.001(12) if the type of
institution is not expressly stated and includes the Kentucky Virtual University,
the Council on Postsecondary Education, and the Kentucky Higher Education
Assistance Authority.
(10) “Kentucky resident” means a person determined by an institution for tuition
purpose to be domiciled in and a resident of Kentucky as determined by this
administrative regulation.
(11) “Nonresident” means a person who:
(a) Is domiciled outside by Kentucky;
(b) Currently maintains legal residence outside Kentucky; or
(c) Is not a Kentucky resident as determined by this administrative regulation.
(12) “Parent” means one (1) of the following:
(a) A person’s father or mother; or
(b) A court-appointed legal guardian if:
1. The guardianship is recognized by an appropriate court within the United
States;
2. There was a relinquishment of the rights of the parents; and
3. The guardianship was not established primarily to confer Kentucky resi-
dency on the person.
(13) “Preponderance of the evidence” means the greater weight of evidence or
evidence that is more credible and convincing to the mind.
(14) “Residence” means the place of abode of a person and the place where the
person is physically present most of the time for a noneducational purpose in
accordance with Section 3 of this administrative regulation.
(16) “Student financial aid” means all forms of payments to a student if one
(1) condition of receiving the payment is the enrollment of the student at an
institution, and includes student employment by the institution or a graduate
assistantship.
(17) “Sustenance” means living expenses including room, board, maintenance,
transportation, and educational expenses including tuition, fees, books, and sup-
plies.
Section 2 Scope
(1) State-supported postsecondary education institutions were established and
are maintained by the Commonwealth of Kentucky primarily for the benefit of
qualified residents of Kentucky. The substantial commitment of public resources
to postsecondary education is predicated on the proposition that the state
benefits significantly from the existence of an educated citizenry. As a matter of
policy, access to postsecondary education shall be provided so far as feasible at
reasonable cost to a qualified individual who is domiciled in Kentucky and who is
a resident of Kentucky.
(2) The Council on Postsecondary Education may require a student who is nei-
ther domiciled in nor a resident of Kentucky to meet higher admission standards
and to pay a higher level of tuition than resident students.
(3) This administrative regulation shall apply to all student residency determina-
tions regardless of circumstances, including residency determinations made by
the state-supported institutions for prospective and currently-enrolled stu-
dents; the Southern Regional Education Board for contract spaces; reciprocity
agreements, if appropriate; the Kentucky Virtual University; academic common
market programs; the Kentucky Educational Excellence Scholarship Program;
and other state student financial aid programs, as appropriate.
Section 3 Determination of Residency Status; General Rules
(1) A determination of residency shall include:
(a) An initial determination of residency status by an institution during the
admission process or upon enrollment in an institution for a specific academic
term or for admission into a specific academic program;
(b) A reconsideration of a determination of residency status by an institution
based upon a changed circumstance; or
(c) A formal hearing conducted by an institution upon request of a student
after other administrative procedures have been completed.
(2) An initial determination of residency status shall be based upon:
(a) The facts in existence when the credentials established by an institution
for admission for a specific academic term have been received and during the
period of review by the institution;
(b) Information derived from admissions materials;
(c) If applicable, other materials required by an institution and consistent with
this administrative regulation; and
(d) Other information available to the institution from any source.
(3) An individual seeking a determination of Kentucky residency status shall
demonstrate that status by a preponderance of the evidence.
(4) A determination of residency status shall be based upon verifiable circum-
stances or actions.
(5) Evidence and information cited as the basis for Kentucky domicile and resi-
dency shall accompany the application for a determination of residency status.
(6) A student classified as a nonresident shall retain that status until the student is
officially reclassified by an institution.
(7) A student may apply for a review of a determination of residency status once
for each academic term.
(8) If an institution has information that a student’s residency status may be
incorrect, the institution shall review and determine the student’s correct resi-
dency status.
(9) If the Council on Postsecondary Education has information that an institu-
tion’s determination of residency status for a student may be incorrect, it may
require the institution to review the circumstances and report the results of that
review.
382
(10) An institution shall impose a penalty or sanction against a student who gives
incorrect or misleading information to an institutional official, including payment
of nonresident tuition for each academic term for which resident tuition was
assessed based on an improper determination of residency status. The penalty or
sanction may also include:
(a) Student discipline by the institution through a policy written and dissemi-
nated to students; or
(b) Criminal prosecution.
Section 4 Presumptions Regarding Residency Status
(1) In making a determination of residency status, it shall be presumed that a
person is a nonresident if:
(a) A person is, or seeks to be, an undergraduate student and admissions re-
cords show the student to be a graduate of an out-of-state high school within
five (5) years prior to a request for a determination of residency status;
(b) A person’s admissions records indicate the student’s residence to be out-
side of Kentucky at the time of application for admission;
(c) A person moves to Kentucky primarily for the purpose of enrollment in
an institution;
(d) A person moves to Kentucky and within twelve (12) months enrolls at an
institution more than half time;
(e) A person has a continuous absence of one (1) year from Kentucky; or
(f) A person attended an out-of-state higher education institution during the
past academic year and paid in-state tuition at that institution.
(2) A presumption arising from subsection (1) of this section shall only be over-
come by preponderance of evidence sufficient to demonstrate that a person is
domiciled in and is a resident of Kentucky.
Section 5 Determination of Whether a Student is Dependent or Independent.
(1) In a determination of residency status, an institution shall first determine
whether a student is dependent or independent. This provision is predicated on
the assumption that a dependent person lacks the financial ability to live indepen-
dently of the person upon whom the student is dependent and therefore lacks
the ability to form the requisite intent to establish domicile. A determination
that a student is independent shall be one (1) step in the overall determination of
whether a student is or is not a resident of Kentucky.
(2) In determining the dependent or independent status of a person, the follow-
ing information shall be considered as well as other relevant information available
at the time the determination is made:
(a)1. Whether the person has been claimed as a dependent on the federal or
state tax returns of a parent or other person for the year preceding the date of
application for a determination of residency status; or
2. Whether the person is no longer claimed by a parent or other person as a
dependent or as an exemption for federal and state tax purposes; and
(b) Whether the person has financial earnings and resources independent
of a person other than an independent spouse necessary to provide for the
person’s own sustenance.
(3) An individual who enrolls at an institution immediately following gradua-
tion from high school and remains enrolled shall be presumed to be a dependent
person unless the contrary is evident from the information submitted.
(4) Domicile may be inferred from the student’s permanent address, parent’s
mailing address, or location of high school of graduation.
(5) Marriage to an independent person domiciled in and who is a resident of
Kentucky shall be a factor considered by an institution in determining whether a
student is dependent or independent.
(6) Financial assistance from or a loan made by a parent or family member other
than an independent spouse, if used for sustenance of the student:
(a) Shall not be considered in establishing a student as independent; and
(b) Shall be a factor in establishing that a student is dependent.
Section 6 Effect of a Determination of Dependent Status on a Determination of
Residency Status
(1) The effect of a determination that a person is dependent shall be:
(a) The domicile and residency of a dependent person shall be the same as
either parent. The domicile and residency of the parent shall be determined
in the same manner as the domicile and residency of an independent person;
and
(b) The domicile and residency of a dependent person whose parents are di-
vorced, separated, or otherwise living apart shall be Kentucky if either parent
is domiciled in and is a resident of Kentucky regardless of which parent has
legal custody or is entitled to claim that person as a dependent pursuant to
federal or Kentucky income tax provisions.
(2) If the parent or parents of a dependent person are Kentucky residents and are
domiciled in Kentucky but subsequently move from the state:
(a) The dependent person shall be considered a resident of Kentucky while in
continuous enrollment at the degree level in which currently enrolled; and
(b) The dependent person’s residency status shall be reassured if continuous
enrollment is broken or the current degree level is completed.
Section 7 Member of Armed Forces of the United States, Spouse and
Dependents; Effect on a Determination of Residency Status
(1) A member, spouse, or dependent of a member whose domicile and residency
was Kentucky at the time of induction into the Armed Forces of the United
States, and who maintains Kentucky as home of record and permanent address,
shall be entitled to Kentucky residency status:
(a) During the member’s time of active service; or
(b) If the member returns to this state within six (6) months of the date of the
member’s discharge from active duty.
(2)(a) A member of the armed services on active duty for more than thirty (30)
days and who has a permanent duty station in Kentucky shall be classified as a
Kentucky resident and shall be entitled to in-state tuition as shall the spouse or a
dependent child of the member.
(b) A member, spouse, or dependent of a member shall not lose Kentucky resi-
dency status if the member is transferred on military orders while the member,
spouse, or dependent requesting the status is in continuous enrollment at the
degree level in which currently enrolled.
(3)(a) Membership in the National Guard or civilian employment at a military
base alone shall not qualify a person for Kentucky residency status under the
provisions of subsections (1) and (2) of this section. If a member of the Kentucky
National Guard is on active duty status for a period of not less than thirty (30)
days, the member shall be considered a Kentucky resident, as shall the spouse of a
dependent child of the member.
(4) A person’s residency status established pursuant to this section shall be reas-
sessed if the qualifying condition is terminated.
Section 8 Status of Nonresident Aliens; Visas and Immigration

C, D, F, H-2, H-3, H-4 if accompanying a person with an H-2 or H-3 visa, J, M,
O, P, Q, S, TD, or TN shall not be classified as a Kentucky resident, because that
person does not have the capacity to remain in Kentucky indefinitely and there-
fore cannot form the requisite intent necessary to establish domicile as defined in
Section 1(6) of this administrative regulation.
(b) A dependent person holding a visa as described in paragraph (a) of this
subsection, but who is a dependent of a parent holding a visa as described in
subsection (2) of this section, shall be considered as holding the visa of the
parent.
(c) A dependent person holding a visa described in subsection (2) of this sec-
tion or paragraph (a) of this subsection, if a parent is a citizen of the United
States and is a resident of and domiciled in Kentucky, shall be a resident of
Kentucky for the purposes of this administrative regulation.
(4) A person shall be a Kentucky resident for the purpose of this administrative
regulation if the person graduated from a Kentucky high school and:
(a) Is an undocumented alien;
(b) Holds a visa listed in subsections (2) or (3)(a) of this section; or
(c) Is a dependent of a person who holds a visa listed in subsections (2) or (3)
(a) of this section.
