Student Responsibilities

Student Responsibilities

• Read and understand the contents of the College Catalog.
• Become familiar with College policies and procedures.
• Be aware of College deadlines, including dates for registration, fee payments, dropping classes, and registration changes.
• Keep the College informed of changes in name, address, phone number, and enrollment changes, which could affect financial aid awards and/or any other circumstances which could affect satisfactory progress toward a degree/emphasis/certificate.  See Change of Student Information below.
• Attend class and complete all assignments in accordance with the expectations established by the instructor and behave in a manner that contributes to a positive learning environment for all in the classroom and on the campus. See Rules and Disciplinary Procedures for Students or contact the student conduct officer to address any conduct concerns.
• Use the College Catalog program worksheet to plan which courses to take each semester and utilize the Academic Advisor Report (AAR) in MyTMCC to track your program progress.
• Schedule an appointment with a faculty member in your chosen program of study or an academic advisor to discuss your timeline and pathway to program completion.
• Physically or learning-disabled students may call the Disability Resource Center at 775-673-7277 or send a message to receive a copy of this course catalog in a more accessible form.

Change of Student Information

While it is critical that all students keep the Admissions and Records office apprised of any changes, it is required of students who receive federal financial aid or Veterans benefits to keep name, address, and degree emphasis or certificate information current. Failure to do so may affect eligibility for continued benefits. Changes in degree emphasis or certificate also affect advisement and course catalog choice for graduation. When the Admissions and Records office becomes aware of an incorrect address, a registration hold is placed until the address is corrected. Contact the Admissions and Records office to remove address holds.

• Request to Change Personal Identification data: Students can process a change of name by completing the Nevada State Higher Education (NSHE) Request to Change Personal Identification form and bringing legal documentation supporting the name change to the Admissions and Records office.
• A change of address can be made through MyTMCC or in person at the Admissions and Records office. 
• Students may submit the Degree, Emphasis or Certificate Change form on line. Once completed, the form will route to the Admissions and Records office.
