Residency Information
An individual must establish legal residency in New Mexico before he or she is entitled
to pay in-state tuition rates. The New Mexico Department of Higher Education establishes
residency requirements for tuition purposes. These requirements apply to US citizens
and those who have applied for or received Permanent Resident status (see additional
information on non-citizens below). A student is classified as a resident or non-resident
for tuition purposes based on information supplied on the admissions application.
Am I eligible for residency for in-state tuition purposes?
There are four basic residency requirements:
- 12 Months Consecutive Residence
A student must physically reside in New Mexico for 12 consecutive months immediately preceding the term for which classification is requested. Note: A student must be at least 19 years old to establish residency apart from parents or guardians. - Financial Independence
A student cannot be approved for residency who is financially dependent upon their parents or legal guardians who are non-residents of New Mexico. A minor's residence is presumed to be the same as his/her parents' or legal guardian's. - Written Declaration of Intent
This declaration of intent is included on the Petition for In-State Residency Form. - Overt Acts
Residency regulations require the completion of at least two overt acts which support the student's declaration of intent to become a permanent resident. - Copy of parents or guardians' previous year federal income tax (only if applicant is financially dependent)
- NM high school transcript confirming attendance within the past 12 months
- NM drivers license or ID card issued prior to the first day of the term
- Proof of payment of NM state income tax for the previous year
- Evidence of employment in NM
- NM vehicle registration issued prior to the first day of the term
- NM voter registration issued prior to the first day of the term
- Proof of residential property ownership in NM
- Rental agreement in NM
- Utility bill in NM
- Other evidence which would reasonably support the individual's intent to establish and maintain NM residency (as determined by NMJC Registrar)
A brochure detailing residency requirements and restrictions is available here or at the NMJC Help Desk.
How do I petition for New Mexico residency for tuition purposes?
Students who would like to petition to change their residency classification should complete the Petition for In-State Tuition Classification. Once the petition form is completed, it needs to be submitted to the NMJC Registrar's Office. The deadline to file a residency petition is the Friday prior to the beginning of each semester. Once the semester has begun, residency classification can not be changed for that semester.
What if I am a non-US citizen?
Non-citizens who are lawfully in the United States and have applied for or obtained permanent status from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services , or non-citizens who serve on active duty in the armed forces of the United States, may establish residency by meeting the durational and intent requirements. Any non-citizens on other visas (student, diplomatic, visitor or visiting scholar visa, including spouses and dependents) are non-residents for tuition purposes.
Any person who attended high school in New Mexico for at least one year and received
a High School diploma or High School Equivalency Credential such as a GED from a NM
institution regardless of immigration status may establish residency.
Grades are based upon the quality of work done, that is, upon actual accomplishment
in courses offered for credit. Grades indicating student standing are issued at the
end of each semester. Mid-semester preliminary grades are for advisory purposes and
are made known to students for counseling purposes. The mid-semester grades will not
appear on the student’s college record.
Grade Distribution / Letter Grades
Students attending New Mexico Junior College will be evaluated according to the grading scale shown below:

Definition of Letter Grades
A—Superior Honor grade indicating excellence earned as a result of consistently superior examination scores; consistently accurate and prompt completion of assignments; ability to deal resourcefully with ideas; and superior mastery of pertinent skills.
B—Better than Average Honor grade indicating competence earned as a result of high examination scores; accurate and prompt completion of
assignments; ability to comprehend ideas; commendable mastery of pertinent skills; and promise of continued success in sequential courses.
C—Average Standard college grade indicating successful performance earned as a result of satisfactory examination scores; generally accurate and prompt completion of assignments; ability to comprehend ideas; fair mastery of pertinent skills; and sufficient evidence of ability to warrant entering sequential courses.
D—Passing Substandard grade indicating the meeting of minimum requirements earned only as a result of low examination scores; generally inaccurate, incomplete, or late assignments; inadequate grasp of ideas; barely acceptable mastery of pertinent skills; or insufficient evidence of ability to make advisable the enrollment in sequential courses.

I—Incomplete A grade of “I” will be given only when a student has successfully completed a substantial portion of the work, but some unforeseen event occurs which is beyond the student’s control. A substantial portion of the work would be something in the range of 80-85% or more of the work. The student, unless incapacitated, is responsible for notifying the instructor of the event and requesting an incomplete grade. The following Incomplete
Grade Regulations apply:

The student, unless incapacitated, is responsible for notifying the instructor of the event and requesting an incomplete grade. The following Incomplete
Grade Regulations apply:
· If the criteria above are met, the instructor and student enter into a completion
contract. The contract specifies what the student must do to complete the course
and receive a grade. The method used to calculate the final grade must also be stated.
The burden for completing the work resides with the student. The instructor will provide
minor assistance to help the student complete the work. The instructor, the student,
and the appropriate Dean sign the contract. If the student is incapacitated, the student
does not have to sign. A copy goes to the student, the instructor, and the Associate
Registrar.
· The student must complete all course work no later than the end of the next long semester.
· The instructor specifies on the contract what grade the student will receive if he/she does not complete the required coursework. When the student completes the required coursework, the instructor computes the final grade and turns in a grade change form to the appropriate academic Dean for processing. If no grade change form is processed because the student failed to complete the work in the specified time, the Associate Dean will change the “I” grade into the grade specified on the contract at the end of the appropriate semester.

W—Withdrawal A student who must withdraw or drop from a course must report to the Office of Enrollment
Management for instructions on the proper procedure. The student who does not follow
the formal procedure may be given an “F” grade in each course irrespective of the
withdrawal date. The student who officially drops a course will be assigned a “W.”
A student will not be allowed to drop / withdraw from a course during the last two
weeks of a regular semester or the last week of a summer session.
Audit Students auditing a course must meet course prerequisites, are expected to attend all class sessions, but are not required to complete assignments. Courses taken for audit will appear on the student’s transcript as AU with no credits recorded and no grades assigned. Courses taken for audit cannot be used to meet a course pre- or co-requisite.
CR (Credit) Some courses are offered as Credit / No Credit. Students must meet all minimum requirements for the course to receive credit. CR is the equivalent of a C or better grade. A grade of CR is not computed in the GPA but the student will receive credit for the course.
NC (No Credit) In courses taken for CR / NC, students who do not satisfactorily complete minimum course requirements will receive NC. A grade of NC is not computed in the GPA and the student will not receive credit for the course.
P (Pass) / F (Fail) Some courses are offered as P / F. Students who meet all minimum requirements for the course receive a P, but the grade is not computed in the GPA although the student will receive credit for the course. In courses taken for P/F, students who do not satisfactorily complete the minimum course requirements will receive F.
S (Satisfactory) / U (Unsatisfactory) Some courses are offered as S / U. Students who meet all minimum requirements for the course receive a S, but the grade is not computed in the GPA although the student will receive credit for the course.
U (Unsatisfactory) In courses taken for S / U, students who do not satisfactorily complete the minimum course requirements will receive U. A grade of U is not computed in the GPA and the student will not receive credit for the course.

Note: Some schools, scholarships and honorary societies do not accept CR /NC or S
/ U grading system and / or convert grades of CR to C and NC to F. Likewise S may
be converted to a C and U may be converted to an F. Students planning to transfer
to another institution should talk to an academic advisor at that institution about
possible consequences of CR/NC grades.

Grade Changes
Any grade change on record with the Office of Enrollment Management will be made only after having been submitted in writing by the professor
concerned, approved by the appropriate academic Dean, and the Vice President for Instruction.
Grade Appeals
If a student has reason to believe that a final grade he / she has received is incorrect, the student must first contact the professor and informally attempt to Resolve the issue before beginning a formal, written grade appeal. If no satisfactory resolution is reached, the student may then proceed with the formal, written, grade appeal process, as noted below. A formal, written grade appeal must be started no later than the last day of classes of the first long (regular) semester which follows receipt of the disputed grade. For example, to appeal a grade received for a class completed during the fall semester, the student has until the last day of the following spring semester to begin the written appeal.

For example, to appeal a grade received for a class completed during the fall semester, the student has until the last day of the following spring semester to begin the written appeal.
The only grounds for a student to appeal a final, semester grade are:
1. The grade is allegedly based on an error in calculation.
2. The grade allegedly did not follow the grading criteria as stated in the course syllabus
It shall be the responsibility of the student to prove that the grade is incorrect or unjustified. Students may not appeal disagreements based on teaching methodologies, attendance policies, or grade weighting methods. During the term of the course it is the student’s responsibility to communicate any concerns he/she may have about the course or grade to the Professor. An appeal will not be heard at any level unless the proper appeal steps have been followed. Academic Dishonesty issues go through the Academic Dishonesty process, not through the Grade Appeal Process.

FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), also known as the Buckley Amendment, is the federal statute that governs student educational records. Everyone who works with student records should be familiar with the law's provisions governing students' rights to access their records, students' rights to amend their records, and students' rights to limit disclosure of personally identifiable information.
Student Educational Records
Education records are records that are directly related to a student and that are
maintained by the College. These records include but are not limited to grades, transcripts,
class lists, student course schedules, student financial information, and student
discipline files. The information may be recorded in any way, including, but not limited
to, handwriting, print, computer media, videotape, audiotape, film, microfilm, and
e-mail.
Generally, the college will release information only to the student to whom the records
belongs. Parental right regarding educational records transfer to the student when
he or she enrolls in college. A student can give parents or a third party access to
their record by submitting an Authorization to Release Student Information Form. This
form is available by clicking here or by visiting the NMJC Help Desk in the Ben Alexander Student Learning Center.
Withhold Directory Information
Both federal and state laws permit New Mexico Junior College to release to the public
"directory" information regarding current and former students without the student's
consent. Directory information includes: student's name, current address, e-mail address,
telephone number, date of birth, major field of study, full or part-time status, participation
in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of athletic team
members, dates of attendance, degrees and awards received and most recent previous
educational institution attended by student.
NMJC students can prohibit the release of directory information to the public by bringing
a photo ID to the NMJC Help Desk located in the Ben Alexander Student Learning Center
or submit a written request. Such requests must be made by the end of the add/drop
period for any semester. It will NOT, however, prohibit the release of directory information
to entities of NMJC which have a "need to know" to accomplish their required tasks.
It further will NOT prohibit NMJC departments from including your name on mailing
lists for distribution of materials that are essential to your enrollment at NMJC.
The authorization to restrict directory information remains in effect until the student
revokes it. This authorization has no effect on directory information released prior
to the completion of this request.
