Rule 3357:15-13-17 | Graduation requirements.
A student becomes eligible for an associate degree when the student has completed all the requirements of the program that the student is enrolled in based upon the catalog-in-force and change of major policy (rule 3357:15-13-28 of the Administrative Code) and as defined by the Ohio Department of Higher Education (ODHE). Students must also have a grade point average (GPA) of 2.00 or above in their technical major and a cumulative GPA of 2.00 or above. For programs that do not have technical concentration courses, no technical GPA is calculated. Based on accreditation standards, certain programs may require a higher technical and cumulative GPA. The credits transferred from other institutions must be in accordance with the transfer and articulation policy (rule 3357:15-13-25 of the Administrative Code) and may be used by a student toward completion of an associate degree at Stark state college. Coursework over ten years old is subject to review and acceptance by the chair of the department offering the course or the dean of that division. However, Stark state college will consider granting permission to a candidate under a catalog more than ten years old if the candidate has been enrolled continuously and the degree program has not changed appreciably.
