  • Reverse Transfer

    In recent years, a new form of transfer has emerged, and it is proving highly successful at giving students a second chance to earn their first college degree. 

    Reverse transfer is a process for awarding an associate of arts degree to students who transfer from a two-year to a four-year institution prior to completing the AA degree requirements at the two-year institution. 

    Reverse transfer students can combine credits they earn at their four-year school with those they had previously earned at community college and retroactively be awarded an associate degree. For more information email transfercredit@jjc.edu.

    Q. Where can I print out my schedule?

    A. You can print your class schedule via MyJJC Student Portal> Self-Service Menu > Register & View Schedule > View Class Schedule

    Q. What is an unofficial transcript/academic summary?

    A. The unofficial transcript is a semester by semester printout of all the classes a student has taken and of grades received. It displays student’s grade point average semester by semester as well as overall GPA. The results of placement test scores, transcript evaluation from other colleges and other testing information may also be indicated on the unofficial transcript.

    Q. Who do I need to contact if one of my grades is incorrect? 

    A. Student Grade Appeal Procedure - The student has a right to a final course grade review if he/she feels the instructor's criteria for determining the final course grade has not been fairly or accurately applied in the calculation of the final course grade. Students should take the following steps: 

    1. The student shall confer with the instructor if there is a question concerning the calculation of a final course grade given by the instructor. If the instructor is unavailable within a three-week period (excluding when classes are not in session), the student may pursue the appeal unilaterally by contacting the appropriate Department Chair (see Step 2) If there is no resolution after the student has conferred with the instructor, the student will complete the online Final Grade Appeal Form and it will be forwarded to the appropriate Department Chair. If the Department Chair is the instructor and there is no resolution, then the student would proceed with the Step 2 meeting additionally with the Dean. 

    2. By the end of the sixth week (excluding when classes are not in session) following the issuance of the grade in question, the student shall contact the Department Chair and present to the Department Chair a completed Final Grade Appeals Form. If the Department Chair is unavailable or was the instructor who issued the grade, the student should contact the appropriate Academic Dean. The Department Chair will schedule and conduct a meeting with the student, the instructor, and the Academic Dean. At the meeting the student shall present documentation to support his or her appeal. The instructor will have an opportunity to address the concerns presented by the student. At the end of the meeting, the student and instructor will be excused and the Department Chair and the Academic Dean will confer and render a decision. Within five (5) school days, a summary of the findings will be sent to the instructor and the student. If all three parties (instructor, Department Chair, Academic Dean) concur in the recommendation, the appeal procedure is exhausted and the grade will stand or be changed, as recommended. 

    3. Step 3 provides that in the event that an agreement is not reached following the procedures in Step 2, the matter will be referred immediately to a committee composed of five full-time faculty members. The faculty committee shall schedule a hearing to be conducted in the same manner as the meeting described in Step 2. The decision of the committee shall be made by majority vote within thirty days after the hearing. The decision of the committee shall be final and binding to all parties. 

    Q. How can I get a copy of my unofficial transcript?

     

    A. Current Students

    Current students can view and print their unofficial transcript via MyJJC Portal > Self-Service Menu > View Academic Profile > Unofficial Transcript.

    OR 

    Former students can request a PDF electronic transcript to be sent via a secure network to their email by placing an order online Transcript Ordering Overview (credentials-inc.com).  The cost is $5. 

     

    Q. I have a hold on my record. Can I still receive my transcript?  

    A. A hold(s) may be place on a student’s record for various reasons such as financial obligations, academic and/or disciplinary reasons. These types of holds will prevent students from obtaining unofficial or official transcripts. The student would need to speak to the Dept. who placed the hold to resolve it. 

    Q. How can I view/inspect my transcript if I have unresolved holds? 

    A. If the student has unresolved restrictive hold(s), the student may still maintain the right to review his/her unofficial transcript in-person. The student should submit the ‘student request to inspect and review education records’ form to the Office of the Registrar, Joliet Junior College, and 1215 Houbolt Rd., Joliet, IL 60431 or wwwrecords@jjc.edu . In addition, the student does not have the right to a photo copy, or to copy the educational record during the inspection.  

    For more information, please visit FERPA Information and Forms 

     

    Q. How can I ensure my degree is posted on my official transcript?

    Q. I received an email notifying me I was marked “never attended” for one of my courses? 

    A. If you have attended the class and you believe this is a mistake, you should contact your instructor immediately. The instructor will need to submit a 10th Day Attendance Revision form to update your record.

    Q. How do senior college/universities view a repeat grade?

    A. It varies depending upon the college. Some colleges average the two grades on a repeat. Consult the college catalog or the college admissions representative for information.

    Q. Why do I need to sign an authorization form for my transcript order?

    A. In order to comply with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), all transcript orders require authorization. Joliet Junior College provides the following procedure(s) for authorizing transcript orders:

    • Your order can be authorized by signing an Authorization Form that we will provide at the end of this ordering process and returning this form via fax or mail.
    • Joliet Junior College provides an additional way to automatically authorize your order if:
      • You attended Joliet Junior College any time from 1976 to the present
      • The billing name on the credit card you use to pay for this order matches both the student name on this order and the student name in their records
      • A specific number of fields in this order such as Student ID, Social Security No., and Date of Birth match the information in their records

    Because actually checking the records at Joliet Junior College is a process that occurs after your order has been entered, we cannot tell you definitively at the time of ordering that your order will qualify for Automatic Authorization. If we successfully authorize your order, we will notify you of that fact. If we are unable to automatically authorize your order, we will send you an Authorization Form that you must then sign and return via fax or mail before your order can be completed.

  • FERPA

    Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)

    The Registrar's Office maintains student records in a confidential manner. The student records policy of Joliet Junior College is governed by the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). 

    FERPA Guide for Parents

    The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (sometimes referred to as FERPA) was designed to protect the privacy of educational records and to establish the rights of students to inspect and review their educational records.  It also provided control over the release of educational record information.  The original intent of this legislation was to keep elementary and high school records private and to give parents access to their child’s school records.

    Once a student turns eighteen, or attends school beyond secondary school, the rights of access to the student’s records transfer to the student.  This includes students that are dually enrolled in high school and college. This means that all academic information regarding your college student goes directly to the student unless the student has given specific, written permission to release that information to someone else.  While parents naturally have an interest in their child's academic progress (and may even be paying for their education), they are not automatically granted access to their records.

    "Education records" are records that are directly related to a student and that are maintained by an educational agency or institution or a party acting for or on behalf of the agency or institution. These records include but are not limited to grades, transcripts, student course schedules, student financial information, and student discipline files. Joliet Junior College will not release any documents that are from another institution or entity to the student or to any party unless required by law.

    Under FERPA, a school is not required to provide information that is not maintained or to create education records in response to a parent's request. Accordingly, a school is not required to provide a parent with updates on his or her child's progress in school unless such information already exists in the form of an education record.

    Even with a release of records, faculty members are not required to provide updates to parents upon request. It should not be expected for faculty to provide continuous updates regarding the student. Nor does FERPA grant parents the ability to act on behalf of the student or make decisions for the student, i.e. add or drop courses, file complaints, request modifications to instruction, alter documents, etc.  (www2.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/ferpa/parents.html)

    What does FERPA mean for a college parent?

    Generally, FERPA rules mean that student academic information such as grades or academic standing (GPA, academic transcript, academic warning, academic probation, or discipline records) will be given to the student and not to the parents. College students are considered responsible adults who may determine who will receive information about them.   College representatives are prohibited from discussing information about the student’s academic record with parents.  JJC has a waiver form, students can access this form through the student portal, which students can sign allowing records to be released to parents.  The student may, or may not, wish to sign this release. Students cannot be coerced or forced to sign this form under the law, or it becomes invalid.

    The quickest, easiest way for you to receive information about your student's grades or other student information is to ask your child to provide it to you.  Students have access to most student information through WebAdvisor portal, which provides online access to transcripts, schedules, grades, and degree audits.  Financial aid records and student bills are also available through this portal.  Students can print or e-mail needed information to their parents.  Students and their parents may also choose to log-in together at regular intervals to review the student's records.  This provides a great opportunity to talk with your student about their experience and progress. Finally, parents can request from the student to see the course syllabus, which outlines the expectations of the course, and have conversations with the student about how they are meeting these expectations.

    Are there any exceptions to the restrictions limiting the release of student information?

    There is a health and safety exception to FERPA regulations.  If a student is considered a threat to himself or to others, or there is a need to protect the health and safety of the student for some reason, information may be shared with parents.  If non-directory information is needed to resolve a crisis or emergency situation, an educational institution may release that information if the institution determines that the information is necessary to protect the health or safety of the student or other individuals. A school may also disclose to parents any violation of the use or possession of drugs or alcohol by students under twenty-one.  An important note here is that the law allows, but does not require, such information to be released to parents. 

    As students and parents navigate the transition to independence and autonomy we encourage parents to have discussion with their college student.  If contacting the College for information that cannot be accessed by the student and shared with the parent, then we encourage the student to contact the College with the parent and have the student lead the conversation.  The parent does not have the ability to make decisions for the student, even with a FERPA release. Discussions via email or phone are discouraged, due to privacy concerns.
