Post-registration Checklist

Bills & Schedules
You will receive a bill and schedule in the mail approximately two weeks before payment is due. The due date is on the bill -- be sure you are aware of this due date! Even if you have financial aid or some other type of scholarship, payment is not automatic.

Ways to Pay at DACC
1) Pay in full with cash, check or credit card (Visa or MasterCard); 2) Sign-up for the FACTS Payment Plan at http://www.dacc.edu/finaid/facts.html; 3) Apply for Financial Aid; 4) Academic or athletic scholarships; 5) Third-Party Payment…Where your employer or an agency (JTP, OARS, etc) will help pay for your tuition and fees. Please note: It is the student's responsibility to verify and finalize third-party payments and/or financial aid. Failure to finalize payment by the due date may result in your classes being dropped.

Transcripts
You should make sure that the Records Office (Vermilion Hall, 1st Floor) has a copy of your final high school transcript or GED scores. If you have attended another university, you should also have an academic transcript sent to the Records Office and a financial transcript sent to the Financial Aid Office (Vermilion Hall) if you plan to apply for financial aid.

Textbooks
You may get your textbooks and lab manuals from the DACC Bookstore (Lincoln Hall, lower level) or visit our online bookstore at http://www.dacc.bkstr.com. Bring a copy of your schedule to the bookstore so they can determine what textbooks you need. Your instructors will inform you of any additional materials needed in the classroom; and most of these items can be purchased at the bookstore. Authorizations for Financial Aid charges will be available toward the beginning of each semester.

How to Read Your Schedule
You will need to know which days your classes meet and where they are located. Your schedule indicates which day or days each class meets. The days of the week are abbreviated as follows:
(Note: "TR" means Tuesday and Thursday.)
 
M = Monday T = Tuesday W = Wednesday
R = Thursday F = Friday S = Saturday
FS = Friday/Saturday SS = Saturday/Sunday

The buildings have signs in front of each one indicating which building it is. Semester and student schedules utilize the following building name abbreviations:

BC = Bremer Conference Center CT = Clock Tower Center
CH = Cannon Hall DT = Downtown Site
LH = Lincoln Hall MM = Mary Miller Center
OH = Ornamental Horticulture/Greenhouse PH = Prairie Hall
TC = Technology Center VH = Vermilion Hall
VM = Village Mall

If the room number starts with a Zero (0) = It is a basement classroom, One (1) = It is a first floor classroom, or Two (2) = It is a second floor classroom.

ID Cards
You will need an I.D. card to check books out of the library and/or to obtain college student discounts. The Information Office will have a table set up in Lincoln Hall for the first two days of Fall and Spring classes from 9:00 am - 3:00 pm. For the Summer semester and after the first two days of the Spring and Fall semesters, I.D.'s can be obtained in the DACC Library. I.D. cards will be re-issued every semester you attend.

Obtaining Your Student Network ID and PIN/Password
Your student network ID and password are very important. You must know them in order to log in to the computers in the DACC computer labs with your own account; to check your DACC E-mail, which can be done via the web from on- or off-campus; to save and use files on the student file/web server; and to log in to your WebCT online courses (if you are enrolled in any). Using your PIN along with your student ID, you will also be able to use the Student Self Service Connection (student services via the web). Go to https://www.dacc.edu/id/ to obtain your ID and password.

Refund Policy
For Classes Meeting Twelve Weeks or Longer - If the withdrawal occurs during the first two weeks of classes, tuition and course fees paid or payable will be refunded.

For Classes Meeting Less than Twelve Weeks - If the withdrawal occurs during the first week of classes, tuition and course fees paid or payable will be refunded.

NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN AFTER THE REFUND PERIOD!

Withdrawal Policy
For classes that meet 5 weeks or longer, students may withdraw from a course up until the end of the week that 75% of the course has been completed (according to course start and end dates). For classes that meet 4 weeks or less, students may withdraw up until the Friday (or end of the week) prior to the end of the course. Since start/end dates vary, withdrawal dates will be posted every semester. It is the student's responsibility to know the dates. Withdrawal dates are posted on the DACC website at http://www.dacc.edu/ar/withdraw.php.

Non-attendance does not constitute an official drop from your class. A grade of "F" will be assigned and calculated in the grade point average.
