Important to Know

Academic Rigor

While the number of weeks for each accelerated session is much shorter than those of the regular fall and spring semesters, students should be aware that each course contains the same number of class hours as the regular semester. As a result, the level of study is much more intensive and demanding of time. Students should consider this in planning their time and course selection.

Admission

If you are registering to take a credit course and are not currently enrolled in classes at CT State Community College, complete an application for admission. 

Financial Aid

Financial aid may be available during the summer and winter sessions to students with eligible Pell funds from the current academic year. Visiting students are not eligible to receive financial aid to cover winter or summer tuition and fees. If you are considering taking summer or winter classes, please contact your local Financial Aid office for further information.

Transfer

If you are attending another college or university and intend to transfer CT State course(s) to your home institution, please check first that these credits are transferable to your school. There are no refunds past the allowable drop period, whether a course is transferable or not.

Tuition and Fees

Tuition and fees for summer/winter session courses are different than those in fall and spring. Credit Extension Tuition and Fees Schedule

Withdrawal Policy

In order to receive a 100% tuition refund, a course must be dropped BEFORE the scheduled start date. Once a course begins, no refund will be available.

Discrimination Complaint Procedure

Posted in CT State.

  • Temp Last Modified: 2025-01-08

CT State Community College (CSCC) does not discriminate on the basis of age, ancestry, color, national origin, gender identity or expression, genetic information, learning disability, marital status, intellectual disability, physical disability (including but not limited to blindness), present or past history of mental disability, prior criminal record, race, religious creed, sex (including pregnancy and sexual harassment), sexual orientation, retaliation for previously opposed discrimination or coercion, veteran status, members of the CT Civil Air Patrol, victims of domestic violence or any other federal or state protected class in its employment, programs, and activities unless the provisions of Section 46a-80(b) or 46a-81(b) of the Connecticut General Statutes are controlling or there are bona fide occupational qualifications excluding persons in one of the above protected groups.

CSCC is a mission-driven institution focused on access to excellent educational opportunities, the promotion of equity, and the advancement of positive change for students and the communities they serve. In support of this mission, CSCC is committed to a fair, just, and timely response to reports of discrimination, harassment, and sexual misconduct. In accordance with federal and state regulations the CSCC Office of Equity and Civil Rights (ECR) has developed procedures to respond to such complaints.

For information regarding the nondiscrimination, disability, and Title IX policies/procedures, contact: John-Paul Chaisson-Cardenas, Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, CT State Community College, 185 Main Street, New Britain, CT 06051, 860-612-7056 or jp-cardenas@ct.edu.

File a Complaint

  • Relevant Policies

    The complaint procedures are informed by several Connecticut State Colleges and Universities (CSCU) Board of Regents (BOR) policies and procedures, including:

    Additionally, these procedures adhere to any relevant state or federal laws.

  • Rights of Complainants and Respondents

    Both complainants and respondents involved in the complaint procedure have the following rights:

    • the opportunity to request that an investigation or hearing begin promptly
    • the right to have officials leading investigations or hearings who have been trained on an annual basis in the area relevant to the complaint (i.e., discrimination, harassment, and/or sexual misconduct)
    • the right to have an advisor or support person of their choosing (e.g., union representative) accompany them to any meetings or interviews throughout the process, as long as the involvement of the advisor or support person does not unduly delay, postpone or disrupt the proceedings. CSCC will provide a list of trained advisors for complainants and respondents to use in this capacity, if they choose
    • the right to present evidence and witnesses on their behalf
    • the right to receive written notice of the results of the investigation or outcome within a reasonable timeframe
    • the right to request an appeal or review of the outcome of the procedure.

  • Supportive Measures for all Parties

    CSCC will provide options for supportive measures for both complainants and respondents involved in the complaint process. Upon receipt of a report involving students, the CSCC official involved with the complaint will provide contact information for relevant campus resources and services (i.e., campus counseling services, academic resources) to the student. These officials will also assist students in contacting campus resources and services as needed. All student complainants will also be provided a list of trained advisors/support persons that they may contact to assist them throughout this process, should they choose. However, they have the right to have any advisor/support person of their choosing and are not required to select someone from this list.

    Upon receipt of a report involving employees, the CSCC official involved with the complaint will provide contact information for the short-term employee counseling program and for union representation as relevant.

    Options for supportive measures will also be provided to respondents involved in the complaint process. When a student respondent receives a notice of allegations from the CSCC official involved with the complaint, they will be provided written contact information for relevant campus resources and services (i.e., campus counseling services, academic resources) to the student. These officials will also assist students in contacting campus resources and services as needed. All respondents will also be provided a list of trained advisors/support persons that they may contact to assist them throughout this process, should they choose. However, they have the right to have any advisor/support person of their choosing and are not required to select someone from this list.

    When a respondent who is an employee receives a notice of allegations, the CSCC official involved with the complaint will provide contact information for the short-term employee counseling program and for union representation as relevant.

    Supportive measures for students or employees could also include, but are not limited to:

    • counseling
    • extensions of deadlines or other course-related adjustments
    • modifications of work or class schedules
    • campus escort services
    • restrictions on contact between the parties (no contact orders)
    • changes in work or housing locations
    • leaves of absence
    • increased security and monitoring of certain areas of the campus.

    It is important to note that a complainant has the right to supportive measures even if they choose not to initiate a formal complaint under these procedures.

  • Retaliation

    Retaliation is prohibited per the CSCU Affirmative Action Policy. Retaliation can occur during the complaint process or at any time after the resolution of the complaint. Any concerns about retaliation should be promptly brought to the attention of the CSCC official involved with the complaint.

    Retaliation occurs when a person is subjected to an adverse employment of educational action because they made a complaint under this policy or assisted or participated in any manner in an investigation. No institution or person may intimidate, threaten, coerce, or discriminate against any individual for the purpose of interfering with any right or privilege secured by Title IX or because the individual has made a report of complaint, testified, assisted or participated or refused to participate in any manner in an investigation, proceeding or hearing related to a report or complaint related to discrimination, harassment, or sexual misconduct.1

  • Other Reporting Options

    Filing a report through the CSCC complaint process has no bearing on other reporting procedures. Complainants may concurrently file reports with law enforcement, other state agencies, and any other entity as appropriate to their circumstances. Complainants will also never be required to file a report with another agency in order to file a report through CSCC.

Individuals should contact these agencies directly for information on their reporting process, reporting timelines, and other matters.
