Student Support Services

Service-Learning

Service-Learning is a way of teaching and learning that engages all learners in hands-on academic projects in the community to meet learning objectives and strengthen communities. Students who are civically engaged in their education are better able to connect classroom learning with real life situations through participation in community service projects.

Scheduling of Classes/Program Content

GCC reserves the right to schedule classes in the order which best suits the overall master schedule and does not violate course prerequisites. Furthermore, GCC also reserves the right to change program content as it aligns with curriculum changes. Such changes are necessary to remain current with professional expectations and industry standards.

Note: Policies and procedures apply to all students, unless otherwise indicated.

Class Hours

Although schedules may vary, classes are scheduled between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. Monday to Friday. Some Saturday classes are offered. Please consult Admissions & Registration for the current schedule.

Housing Information

Guam Community College has no housing facilities. The College does not supervise, recommend or assume responsibility for any housing facility. Private housing is available in the community and prospective students should make their own arrangements.

Assessment, Institutional Effectiveness, and Research

Assessment at Guam Community College is viewed as a collective effort to demonstrate commitment to an institutional dialogue about student learning. There are two major motives that drive all assessment processes at GCC: accountability and improvement. A policy document adopted by the Board of Trustees on September 4, 2002 (Policy 306, Comprehensive Assessment of Instructional Programs, Student Services, Administrative Units and the Board of Trustees) is the institutional mandate that fuels all campus-wide assessment activities.

Student Organizations

Student organizations provide excellent opportunities for students to develop personally and professionally. Student organizations work in conjunction with the Council on Postsecondary Student Affairs (COPSA) in planning and implementing activities, events, and campus-wide programs to address the needs and interests of GCC students.

Student Governance

The Council on Postsecondary Student Affairs (COPSA) is the official representative body for student governance at GCC. As the Student Senate, COPSA plans student activities, approves student organization budgets, and ensures that the College fully considers the needs and interests of students in its decisions and offerings.
