Visitors and Guests in Class
An enrolled student may occasionally bring a guest to class, upon permission of the instructor. Guests who wish to visit frequently will be denied entrance to the class unless they register officially for the class. Safety considerations or disruption of instruction may require that guests not be permitted to attend a class.
Student E-Mail Accounts
Yavapai College requires enrolled students to have an e-mail address to which official College communications can be sent. In the best interest of effective communications management, this address will reside on the College maintained e-mail system. Students may elect to forward their e-mail to an address different from their official Yavapai College account, but these students assume full responsibility for reading e-mail at the forwarded location. Students are expected to check their Yavapai College e-mail account, or the account to which their Yavapai College e-mail is forwarded, prior to the first class meeting and at least once a week during the semester. If you have questions regarding your student e-mail account, contact the Yavapai College Help Desk at 928.776.2168 or 800.922.6787 X2168.
Transcripts
Transcripts are permanent academic records. They are considered confidential, and are released only by written consent (including signature) of the student.
Sending a Yavapai College transcript: Students may request official transcripts and pay the applicable fee:
• online at www.getmytranscript.com; cost $7.25 per transcript payable by credit card.
• in person at the Prescott or Verde campus; cost $10.00 per transcript payable by cash, check,
money order or credit card.
• by postal mail with written/signed request; cost $10.00 per transcript payable by check or money order; send to Yavapai College Answer center, 1100 E. Sheldon St., Prescott, AZ 86301.
Requesting a transcript from other schools: Students who have completed work at other institutions and wish to apply credits toward their Yavapai College degree or certificate must have official transcripts sent to the Yavapai College Answer Center, 1100 E. Sheldon St., Prescott, AZ 86301. It is recommended that students transferring credit from another institution meet with an academic advisor to achieve maximum benefit when establishing their educational plan. Students receiving veteran education benefits are required by VA regulations to submit official transcripts from all colleges, universities, technical schools, military training and non-accredited institutions.
Student Holds
Holds may be placed on student records for outstanding obligations to the college. A student may not be able to enroll in classes, obtain grade reports, obtain official transcripts, or receive an earned degree or certificate until any holds placed on the record have been cleared. Examples of student holds are:
• Academic probation or suspension
• Bad or returned check
• Unpaid fees such as library fines
• Disciplinary holds for student misconduct • Financial aid or student loan holds
Students can determine the originator of the hold via secure log in at www.yc.edu, or by contacting the Answer Center via email at answercenter@yc.edu.
