STUDENT RIGHT-TO-KNOW AND CAMPUS SECURITY ACT
The following information on completion and transfer rates is provided in accordance with the federal Student Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act.
■ Completion rate: 62.38 percent
■ Transfer rate: 6.95 percent
These rates are based on tracking a cohort of all certificate-, degree-, and transfer- seeking first-time, full-time students over a three-year period beginning in fall 2014. The rates do not represent the success rates of the entire student population at the college nor do they account for student outcomes occurring after this three-year tracking
period.
For this cohort, the completion rate
indicates those students who attained a certificate or degree or who became “transfer prepared” during the period from fall 2014 to spring 2017. Students who completed 90 transferable units with a GPA of 2.0 or better are considered “transfer prepared.” The transfer rate indicates those students who transferred to another post-secondary institution, prior to attaining a degree, certificate, or becoming "transfer prepared" during a five-semester period from spring 2015 to spring 2017.
Also in accordance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, De Anza College provides a crime statistics report. See "Crime Statistics (Clery Act)" on page 27. Current information is available at deanza. edu/police/clerystatistics.
STUDENT RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES CONCERNING HEALTH
De Anza students have the right to a healthy, safe and drug-free environment. They also have personal responsibilities with regard to their own health and safety and the health and safety of the college community.
To promote an optimum personal and physical environment for individual development and learning, students will
■ Not attend college if they have a contagious condition (such as TB, measles or hepatitis)
■ Not attend college if they are under the influence of alcohol or illicit drugs
■ Have a physical exam on file if they are an intercollegiate athlete, or is in an allied health program
■ Notify the Admissions and Records Office if they will be absent for a week or more due to an illness
SUBSTANDARD WORK: ALLEVIATION FOR GPA
When a student receives a substandard grade (D+, D, D-, F, NC or NP) at De Anza, they may petition to have that grade excluded from their GPA after sub- sequently completing an equivalent course at another regionally accredited college or university. The student's academic transcript will be annotated to reflect exclusion of the previously recorded coursework with the substandard grade, for purposes of GPA calculation and for all considerations associ- ated with awarding certificates and degrees. Replacement with a grade of Pass/No Pass is not permitted, as it does not improve the student's GPA. All grades remain on the academic transcript, and some transfer institutions may require recalculation of the GPA to include both the substandard grade and the subsequent grade.
When submitting this petition, the student must
   ■ Observe sound personal hygiene habits
■ Have current TB results on file ■
Attach a copy of their transcript, and either the course outline
of record or the course catalog description to confirm course equivalency
Make sure that an official
(sealed) transcript from the other regionally accredited institution
is submitted to De Anza’s Admissions and Records Office before the petition is filed Complete the petition form
by providing the student’s information, the De Anza College course identifier, the date the
De Anza course was completed and the initial grade, as well as the equivalent course identifier, date repeated and grade earned upon repetition
