Housing and Dining Facilities

Housing Availability

Residence hall facilities are available on the Thatcher campus for both men and women. A tour of these facilities can be arranged when you visit our campus. Preference will be given to full-time students for College housing. Our Student Life Office also maintains a directory of off-campus housing facilities that are available for rent.

We reserve the right to deny campus housing, change room assignments, or remove a student from College housing if it is felt to be in the best interest of the student and/or the College. We cannot be responsible for loss, theft, or damage to personal property. Firearms, explosives of all kinds, intoxicating liquors, and illegal drugs are prohibited in the residence halls and elsewhere on college property. If found, they will be confiscated and violators subject to disciplinary action. Pets are not allowed in the residence hall areas or rooms.

Room Reservations

Returning students have priority for College housing; however, if you're a returning student, you must have a full room deposit and current housing contract on file by the end of the previous semester or lose your priority.

To make a room reservation, submit to the Student Life Office a completed Housing Application and $150 housing deposit. Priority will be granted on the basis of the date the application and deposit are received.

College Housing Deposit

A $150 housing deposit and a declaration of your intent are required to reserve space in College housing. Upon check-in, the funds become a deposit against loss or damage to College property. Housing deposits may be left on account between semesters. Damage expenses will be charged as they occur. A full deposit of $150 must be maintained in your account in order to maintain your reservation between semesters.

Housing Cancellations and Refund Eligibility

In order to meet the demand for housing and provide rooms for those students who really need them, there are firm cancellation and refund policies in effect. If you wish to cancel your housing reservation, you must notify the Housing Office. Cancellations on or before July 15 for the fall semester or on or before December 15 for spring semester will result in a full refund of your $150 Housing Reservation Deposit. Cancellations after these dates will result in loss of your deposit. Your room payment must be made prior to the first day the residence halls open for the semester. If you do not pay by this date, your reservation will be cancelled and your deposit forfeited. If you move out of the residence hall prior to the end of registration, your deposit will be forfeited and you will be eligible for a 50% refund of your room fee. After the end of the registration period, there will be no further room fee refunds. Housing Deposits will be refunded minus individual and/or communal damages. Petitions for a waiver of the Housing Refund Policy may be made to the Assistant Dean of Student Life.

Residence Hall Room Costs for 1999-2000

Double occupancy in Mark Allen or Lee Hall: $750 for Fall Semester and $500 for Spring Semester. Single occupancy on a space-available basis.

Residence hall room costs are subject to annual change. Room and meal plan charges are due and payable at the time you move into a Residence Hall.

What About Dining Facilities?

Campus food service is available 234 days per academic year. There are approximately 118 days in fall semester and 116 in spring semester. Students may choose to eat in the Dining Room or the more casual setting of Gila Hank's Cafe. Dining Room meals are cafeteria-style and feature "all you can eat" (unlimited seconds). Three meals per day are served Monday through Friday. Brunch and dinner are served on the weekends. All meals must be used within the week or they are lost (“Use or Lose”). Only one meal can be used per meal time.

Gila Hank's Cafe is open 7 a.m. - 10 p.m. weekdays with afternoon and evening hours on weekends during the Fall and Spring semesters. In Gila Hank's Cafe students may order from the menu and pay on a per-item basis (a la carte).

1/14/02 – The Financial Aid section was revised. The original section follows:

Financial Aid

Eastern Arizona College has a comprehensive financial aid program to ensure, to the extent of available funding, that no student will be denied a college education because of lack of funds. EAC believes that primary responsibility for financing your education rests with you and your family. The ability of you and your family to provide that support is calculated through a federally approved needs analysis system.

A financial aid "package" often includes more than one type of aid. Eligibility requirements for the following programs are general in nature, and may change without notice. For more specific details please contact the Financial Aid Office.

Grants

Grants are awards which do not have to be repaid. Included are Pell Grants, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG), and for Arizona residents, the State Student Incentive Grant (SSIG).

Employment

College Work-Study Program (CWS): Federally funded part-time employment. Pay dates are twice monthly. Student employees are paid at least the federal minimum hourly rate.

Institutional Work-Study Program: College funded part-time employment awarded at specific request of faculty or staff. Pay procedures are similar to those under CWS above.

Terms and Conditions of College Work Study Employment

Thatcher Campus

If you have been awarded Federal Work-Study:

Confirm award with Financial Aid Office.
Locate a job. See listing on bulletin board by Financial Aid office.
If you are a first-time EAC employee, fill out an employee "Set-Up Packet" at the cashier’s window in the Administration Building. Bring two forms of identification (social security card and driver’s license preferred).
Work your agreed schedule and keep a careful record of the dates and hours.
Turn in your time sheets to your supervisor before noon on the 15^th and 30^th of the month.
Complete the timesheet with your correct social security number and sign it!
Check calendar for pay dates. Typically it is the 7^th and 22^nd of the month. Take your identification and pick up your check at the cashier’s window.

Note! If you are applying your work-study earnings toward a college debt, you must come to the cashier’s window and endorse your check so the funds can be transferred to reduce your outstanding bill.

Gila Pueblo Campus

If you have been awarded Federal Work Study:

Confirm award with Financial Aid Office.
Locate a job. Check with staff at Gila Pueblo Administration.
Once hired, complete an employee "set-up packet". Bring two forms of identification (social security card and driver’s license preferred).

Check calendar for pay dates. Typically they are the 7^th and 22^nd of the month. Be sure to bring your identification to pick up pay checks.

Loans

EAC no longer participates in the Student Loan Programs.

Disbursements

Disbursement of grants and scholarships will be by cash or check on the first day of the semester or as soon after as practical.

The Application Process

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) should be submitted as soon as possible after January 1 if you plan to enroll the following fall term. EAC's deadline for priority consideration is April 15. Since errors or incomplete forms cause delays it is important to complete the form early, carefully, and accurately. If there are difficulties or questions in filling out the form, please request assistance from a high school counselor or our Financial Aid Office.

Approximately 30% of all applications will be selected for a process called "verification." If the Department of Education or the College selects you for verification, you must prove that the information you reported is correct by submitting income tax forms and other documents. Therefore, you should save copies of all records and materials used in applying for aid.

Eligibility Determination

Before aid can be awarded your financial aid file must be complete, including all documents requested. Aid is then awarded on a first-come, first-served basis until funds are depleted. The amount of your award is determined by eligibility, availability of funds, and compliance with deadlines. You must reapply for aid each year.

Two basic steps are used in determining financial aid eligibility.

Step 1. Determination of costs (student budget). Financial Aid considers fees, tuition, room and board, books, transportation, and personal expenses. Several standard budgets are designed to reflect a modest but adequate standard of living. Budgets are revised only if you can document extraordinary costs over which you have no control. The following are samples of the standard budgets to be used for the academic year based on an average of 16 credits per semester.

	Living at Home	Living Off Campus	Living in Residence Hall
General Fees and Tuition	$ 732.00	$ 732.00	$ 732.00
Room and Board	1,700.00	4,462.00	3,300.00
Books and Supplies	400.00	400.00	400.00
Transportation	950.00	950.00	950.00
Miscellaneous	1,290.00	1,290.00	1,290.00
Total	$5,072.00	$7,834.00	$6,672.00

Out-of-state fees are an additional $2,060 per semester or $4,120 per year.

Step 2. From the appropriate budget, subtract the expected family contribution as computed from information supplied on the application. This results in the maximum eligibility.

Financial aid cannot be awarded until you have declared a major and are enrolled in courses that will lead to a degree or certificate. If you have neither a high school diploma nor GED then you must take and pass the Ability to Benefit test and results must be in the Financial Aid Office before aid can be awarded.

Notification of Award

A notification of aid offered will be mailed to you. The Fiscal Control Office disburses aid and all debts to the College will be deducted from any amounts due you.

Satisfactory Academic Progress

To insure compliance with Federal regulations, EAC will award federal financial aid only to those students who are making satisfactory academic progress toward obtaining a degree or certificate. These procedures are designed to encourage you to successfully complete a degree or certificate in the appropriate amount of time. EAC has established the following by which to judge that progress. These standards should not be confused with the academic standards of the College, which may differ.

Standards: You are required to successfully complete at least the number of credits for which financial aid was received. For full-time students this means a minimum of 12 credit hours. Part-time students are evaluated on a proportional basis. Repeat courses are counted in the total number of credits for that semester. Audited credit hours are not included.

You are required to maintain at least a 2.00 grade point average (GPA).

Ninety-six (96) credits, including transfer credits, will be considered the maximum time frame for completion of most Associate degree programs. Proportional amounts of time will be allocated to students in shorter programs or to part-time students.

Financial aid may cover a maximum of 30 credit hours of developmental classes. This includes classes below the 100 level and MAT 120 and ENG 100. However these credits will be included in the maximum total.

Financial Aid Status: If you are a full-time student but completed fewer than 12 credits or earned less than a 2.00 GPA, you may be placed on probation for the following semester. While on probation, you may continue to receive financial aid but must complete the number of probation credits with at least a 2.00 GPA.

If you achieve less than 1.00 GPA or complete fewer than six credits, you may not receive a probationary semester and future aid will be canceled.

Appeals: If you fail to meet the above standards and feel that there are significant extenuating circumstances you may submit an appeal. Appeals are to be made in writing to the Director of Financial Aid and should outline the specific problem and project your ability to complete the program. An appeal may also be submitted to the Financial Aid Committee.

Reestablishing Eligibility: If your aid is canceled due to lack of compliance with the above standards, you can reestablish eligibility by completing the deficit credits without federal financial aid and by bringing the cumulative GPA up to 2.00. If these credits are taken at another school you must arrange to have an academic transcript and a Financial Aid Transcript (FAT) sent from the other school. Only those credits which transfer will be included in the calculation.

Financial Aid will attempt to notify you of any deficiencies in a timely manner; however, it is your responsibility to be aware of the conditions of Satisfactory Academic Progress and to ensure compliance.

Student Rights

You have the right to know:

what programs are available at EAC.
the deadlines for submitting applications.
how your financial aid eligibility was determined.
the refund and repayment policies.
the satisfactory progress requirements.
the costs at EAC.

Student Responsibilities

You must:

complete all application materials accurately and on time.
provide correct information. Misreporting may be considered a criminal offense.
accept responsibility for all agreements that you sign.
notify the Financial Aid Office in writing of any changes in address, marital status, name, or drop in credits that takes you below the number of credits for which you are receiving aid.
complete the number of credit hours for which you are paid with at least a 2.00 GPA.
