Frequently Asked Questions

---

• • Are all classes offered each semester?
    No. AIRC 20 and 25 are the only courses offered each semester. Most other courses are offered once a year in either the Fall or Spring semesters, or the Winter Intersession. Summer courses are sometimes offered.
  • Can I visit the facilities before I enroll?
    Yes. Use the contact information on the course description handout or from the program information sheet to find the phone numbers of the faculty and staff. All faculty and staff will be glad to set up a time and date to give a tour and answer questions. Staff work every work day from 6:30 am to 3:30 pm and are usually at the facility. Faculty is usually on campus in the mornings or evenings during the semesters and during office hours. During the Intersessions faculty will only be on campus for the courses they teach and their office hours.
  • How can I get credit for a Mt. SAC course if I took a similar course at another college?
    Fill out a variance form that can be obtained from the Tech & Health Division Office and have it signed by the Department Chair and Division Dean.
  • What do I do if a course I need to complete my degree is not offered the semester I want to graduate?
    Students can meet with the Department Chair and ask if you can take another course in place of the one that is not offered.
  • How do I get a Mt. SAC certificate once I have completed the certificate requirements?
    Students must fill out the certificate application form that can be obtained from the Tech & Health Division Office and submit it to the Admissions and Records Office.
  • If a class is full and I want to add the class, what do I do?
    Students wishing to add a full class may list their name on the waitlist for the course, attend the first day of class and ask the instructor if they have room for you to add.
  • If I want to complain about a teacher, what do I do?
    Contact the Department Chair of that instructor and arrange a meeting.
