Information Technology Policies and Guidelines
The Student Code of Conduct prohibits certain behavior related to the use of the College technology resources and requires compliance with College policies. The full policy can be obtained from the Associate Dean of Student Services office on each campus, or in the Information Technology Policies and Guidelines.
The policy obligates users to respect the rights of others, avoid uses that burden system resources or introduce viruses, and protect the secrecy of passwords. Users are also prohibited from engaging in a variety of listed activities. The policy includes provisions on privacy rights, monitoring of use and sanctions for violations. All users are responsible for knowing the college's policy and are deemed to have accepted the restrictions by utilizing the technology resources.
Student Online Services, Student Portal, Email Accounts
Suffolk County Community College official web-based student portal (MySCCC) and student email accounts are an official means of communication to all full- and part-time students enrolled in credit-bearing classes. All such students are required to activate their student portal and email accounts. Official College communications may include, but are not limited to, registration information, financial aid information and other financial statements, student health compliance information and academic progress notifications.
The College expects that students shall receive and read their electronic communications on a frequent and timely basis. Failure to do so shall not absolve the student from knowing of and complying with the contents of all electronic communications, some of which will be time-critical.
The College has established policies for the acceptable use of computing resources. The Information Technology Policies and Guidelines provides additional information.
Medical Leave
A Medical Leave may be granted, upon request, to any matriculated student who is unable to attend classes for an extended period of time due to a documented illness, injury, or medical or psychological condition. Under the aforementioned circumstances, a Medical Leave may be granted to a student who is forced to withdraw during a semester as well as to a student who is unable to enroll in a subsequent semester. To request a Medical Leave, students should follow the procedure outlined below.
Request a Medical Leave, in writing during the semester they withdraw, from the Campus Associate Dean of Student Services. The request must indicate the medical reason and the period of the leave. Documentation by a physician or other appropriate health care provider is required.
In the event that a student is incapable of requesting a leave himself/herself, the request may be submitted by a parent, spouse, or other appropriate individual. In such cases, documentation of the student's incapacity must be provided by the appropriate health care provider.
The Campus Associate Dean of Student Services shall have the final authority to determine whether the request for a Medical Leave is granted. All such determinations shall be made in writing.
In the event that a Medical Leave is granted, the Associate Dean shall: complete the class withdrawal process for the student (i.e., if initiated and not previously completed); and authorize a leave of absence for the student from the Admissions Office (i.e., if the student is enrolled in a restricted curriculum with limited seat availability). This leave maintains the date of matriculation and, if a seat is available, gives the student preference for readmission into the program ahead of any new student.
Being granted a Medical Leave during a semester does not mean that a student's grades or financial aid will not be negatively impacted, nor does it mean that the student will be entitled to a tuition refund. Accordingly, students should be aware that existing policies will be followed in making these determinations. Whenever possible, students are strongly encouraged to determine the consequences of withdrawing during a semester before requesting a Medical Leave.
Medical Suspension
Suffolk County Community College strives to promote the health and safety of all members of the college community by providing services in the areas of student health, counseling, and public safety and by enforcing student conduct regulations. In accordance with law, and in order to ensure that the institution and its members may carry out their proper activities without substantial interference or danger of physical harm, the College has implemented its policy and procedures for the medical suspension of students. A student may be subject to medical suspension if it is determined that the student is suffering from a physical, emotional, or psychological condition, and, as a result of this condition, engages, threatens to engage, or may engage in behavior that:
Reasonably poses a danger or threat of causing physical harm to others; and/or
Substantially impedes the lawful activities of other members of the campus community, or the educational processes, activities or functions of the College or its personnel.
For additional information, the Medical Suspension Policycan be viewed online.
On August 27, 2015, Suffolk County Community College officially became tobacco-free. In order to provide a clean and healthy environment for all students, employees and visitors, the College implemented a tobacco-free policy that will:

Prohibit the use of all tobacco and tobacco-derived products on all College grounds;
Provide resources for tobacco users to get the help they need to quit for good.

We invite tobacco users to review the Smoke Free Policy. This policy shall be strictly enforced and violators will be subject to conduct procedures outlined in the Student Code of Conduct and/or fines.

Mandatory Student Immunizations: Measles, Mumps and Rubella / Meningitis
In accordance with New York State Public Health Law Section 2165, all students enrolled for at least six (6) semester hours, or the equivalent, at Suffolk County Community College, who were born on or after January 1, 1957, must provide acceptable written proof of immunity against measles, mumps, and rubella in accordance with standards approved by the New York State Department of Health.
Acceptable proof of immunity consists of a Certificate of Immunization signed and stamped by a physician or licensed health care provider which documents measles, mumps, and rubella immunity. Students must submit this certificate or equivalent to the Health Services Offices on their home campus and document at least partial compliance with the immunization requirements before they will be permitted to register for classes. Partial compliance shall be defined as one dose of measles, mumps, and rubella immunization.
In addition, proof of an honorable discharge from the armed services within 10 years prior to the date of application to Suffolk County Community College shall also qualify as a certificate enabling a student to attend classes pending actual receipt of immunization records from the armed services.
Students who are in partial compliance will be notified by the Vice President of Student Affairs that they will be suspended from their classes if they do not fully comply with the immunization requirements within the first 30 days of the semester (45 days for students transferring from another state or county). Students who are suspended and who subsequently fail to comply with the immunization requirements will be administratively withdrawn from their classes and prevented from registering for subsequent semesters.
Immunization records shall be maintained on each campus at the Health Services Office, which shall consider such information as confidential and subject to the College Records Policy. The Vice President of Student Affairs shall be responsible for the completion and timely submission to the Commissioner of Health of the annual survey of immunization levels of students attending Suffolk County Community College.
Students who cannot afford a private physician will be directed to the County Health Department for information regarding free immunizations. Persons may be exempt from any or all of these requirements if a physician certifies in writing that the immunizations may be detrimental to their health. In addition, persons who hold genuine and sincere religious beliefs which are contrary to immunization may be exempt after submitting a statement to that effect to the Associate Dean of Student Services on their home campus.
Students who are registered solely for online courses that do not require any campus presence are exempt from these requirements.
Should a suspected case of measles, mumps, or rubella occur on a campus, the office of the Vice President of Student Affairs will evaluate the case in conjunction with the County Health Department and the Health Services Office and consulting physician. While awaiting serological confirmation, immunization records will be reviewed and susceptible individuals identified. If the suspected case is confirmed, the office of the Vice President of Student Affairs will notify all susceptible students and staff to be immunized. Susceptible students who are unable to be immunized may be required to remain off-campus until the Health Department deems it safe for such individuals to return.
This Mandatory Student Immunization Policy will be included in the College Catalog and the campus Student Handbooks.
Required Acknowledgement of Meningitis Information: In accordance with New York State Public Health Law Section 2167, all students enrolled for at least six (6) semester hours, or the equivalent, at Suffolk County Community College, are required to acknowledge that they have received information about meningococcal disease and vaccination. In addition, such students are required to indicate that they either have received the appropriate vaccination within the past 10 years or have decided not to obtain immunization again the disease. Students who fail to submit the required acknowledgement will be blocked from registration activity and subject to withdrawal.
Please refer to the College Legal Affairs website to review the Student Immunization Requirements Policy.
Suffolk County Community College's policies and procedures for responding to the COVID-19 pandemic have been and will continue to be governed by the principle that the safety of our students and employees is paramount, while continuing the College's mission of education.
SUNY Suffolk's plans are aligned and consistent with guidance from SUNY, local and state Departments of Health guidelines. The College is also following applicable recommendations from the federal government, PESH, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Limiting the spread of COVID-19 relies in large part on the personal responsibility of everyone on campus, through good personal hygiene practices and closely monitoring personal health to recognize symptoms. Do not come to campus if you are sick.
Our knowledge and understanding of the COVID-19 virus continues to evolve; as more information becomes available, the College's policies and guidelines may be updated or changed. It is an expectation that all students will familiarize themselves with, and agree to follow all applicable guidelines.
Notification Of Student Rights Under The Family Educational Rights And Privacy Act
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords eligible students certain rights with respect to their education records. (An eligible student under FERPA is a student who is 18 years of age or older or who attends a postsecondary institution at any age.) These rights include:
The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 45 days after the day Suffolk County Community College receives a request for access. A student should submit to the Chief Campus Student Affairs Officer on their home campus (the Associate Dean of Student Services) a written request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect. A meeting will be scheduled within a reasonable period of time, at which time the records may be reviewed.
The right to request the amendment of the student's education records that the student believes is inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student's privacy rights under FERPA. A student who wishes to ask the College to amend a record should first bring this request to the Chief Campus Student Affairs Officer on their home campus (the Associate Dean of Student Services), who will discuss the matter with the student and attempt to arrive at a mutually acceptable resolution. If an agreement cannot be reached, the student will be notified of the decision and their right to a hearing. The student may then request a hearing to challenge the contents of the record. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures is outlined in the College Student Records Policy and will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing.
The right to provide written consent before the College discloses personally identifiable information (PII) from the student's education records, except to the extent FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. The College discloses education records without a student's prior written consent under the FERPA exception for disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research or support staff position; a person retained as a contractor, consultant, volunteer, or other party to whom the College has outsourced services or functions authorized by, or under contract to the College, to perform a special task, such as an attorney or auditor; a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving in an official capacity, such as membership on a disciplinary or grievance committee. A school official has a legitimate educational interest in reviewing or assessing a student's education records if the school official is: performing a task that is specified in his/her position description or contract; performing a task directly related to a student's education; performing a task related to student discipline; providing a service or benefit relating to the student or student's family; and/or maintaining the safety and security of the campus. Upon request, the College also discloses education records without consent to officials of another institution in which a student seeks or intends to enroll.
The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the College to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administered FERPA is: Student Privacy Policy Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20202. College policy explains in detail the procedures used by the College for compliance with FERPA. Copies of the College's Student Records Policy may be found in the following offices: Campus Registrar and Associate Dean of Student Services on the Ammerman, Eastern and Michael J. Grant campuses, as well as the offices of the College Registrar, Vice President for Student Affairs, and the Office of Legal Affairs in the Norman F. Lechtrecker Building on the Ammerman Campus. The Student Records Policy is also posted on the College's website. Questions concerning FERPA may be referred to the Associate Dean of Student Services on each campus or the College Registrar or the Vice President for Student Affairs in the Norman F. Lechtrecker Building on the Ammerman Campus.
Directory Information Notice
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a Federal law, requires that Suffolk County Community College, with certain exceptions, require your written consent prior to the disclosure of personally identifiable information from your education records. However, the College may disclose appropriately designated "Directory Information" without written consent if considered appropriate by College officials, unless you have advised the College to the contrary in accordance with College procedures.
The College hereby designates the following items of student information as public or "Directory Information"; This does not mean, however, that the College will indiscriminately release such information about students. Requests for Directory Information on all Suffolk County Community College students or categories of students will generally not be honored. The College specifically excludes lists or compilations of data on all students or categories of students from its designation of Directory Information under FERPA, even if such list or compilation of data consists only of information which, if related to an individual student, would otherwise constitute Directory Information. Release will generally be restricted to information on individual students only, and each request will be considered on an individual basis by the Vice President of Student Affairs, the College Registrar, the Campus Associate Dean of Student Services, or the Office of Legal Affairs.
Address (permanent, local and email)
Telephone number (permanent and local)
Dates and status of enrollment
Honors, awards or special recognition
Weight and height, if a member of an athletic team
Prior schools attended and degrees awarded
Participation in officially recognized sports and activities
Currently enrolled students may withhold disclosure of this information under FERPA. To withhold disclosure, a student must complete the "Request to Prevent Disclosure of Directory Information" form. This form must be submitted to the campus Registrar's Office, and will be in effect until the student revokes the request in writing. The College assumes that failure on the part of any student to specifically request the withholding of "Directory Information" indicates individual approval for disclosure.
Suffolk County Community College hereby informs students that information on campus crime statistics, safety awareness, crime prevention, sexual assault, alcohol and drug education, and sexual harassment is available on the College website at www.sunysuffolk.edu/safety. Crime statistics for Suffolk County Community College, as well as other colleges throughout the United States, are also available online through the U.S. Department of Education.
