Vaccination Update

Due to City of Philadelphia mandates, all students, faculty and staff must be fully vaccinated. To register for in-person or hybrid classes, students need to be fully vaccinated or have an approved exemption. Students who are not vaccinated or do not have an approved exemption are able to register for fully online courses. Please see our College COVID-19 Updates for more information and visit our Virtual Student Resource Center for support.

College Policies

Mint Building from across Spring Garden Street

This website is an experimental step to provide College Policies and Procedures in an on-line format. Existing policies have been renumbered in a manner that allows the policies to be organized by topic area. The following classification system is used:

TitlePolicy Number Range
Student Records and Regulations
and Academic Standards Policies		 1 to 100
Student Services Policies 101 to 150
Facilities, Safety and Security Policies 151 to 200
Financial Policies 201 to 250
Human Resources Policies 251 to 300
General Administration Policies 301 to 350
Equal Employment Opportunity and Non-Discrimination and Harassment Policies
 351 to 400

An index is provided which shows the old number and the new number. If a policy is no longer in effect, its status is shown as inactive. Only active policies are available on this web site. This web site is under construction and not all policies are yet available on-line. Policies not found on-line should be available in Policies and Procedures manuals located in most administrative offices.
