upon the program of study. Students who want to take more than 18 credits must have a
cumulative average of at least 3.0 and the permission of the Dean of Student Development.
This policy applies to all academic sessions including summer.

Degrees and certificates are awarded in December and May of each academic year.
A
pplications for graduation are available in the Registrar’s Office and must be submitted by the
fourth week in September for December graduates and the second week in February for May
graduates. Commencement is held once a year following the Spring semester.
Associate degrees are awarded to students who meet all of the following requirements:
A minimum 60 academic credits plus two credits in Health and Life Fitness,
effective Spring 2001. Any student who re-entered the College in Spring 1988 or later

CYBER SECURITY AND ASSURANCE DEGREEM714
Associate of Applied Science (AAS)
CATALOG DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM:
The new degree program in Cyber Security and Assurance at BCCC emphasizes on the need to build a
wall between our information and those that want to exploit it. The recurring events such as virus and
worm attacks and the success of criminal attackers illustrate the weaknesses in current information
technologies and the need to heighten security of these systems. Students will gain practical experience
in understanding the threats and dangers, security assessments and analysis to a wide range of different
businesses, and the steps that need to be taken to mitigate these vulnerabilities by using state-of-the-at
technology. The program prepares students for vendor-specific or commercially available security
certification.

Physical Therapist Assistant Program Overview:
Students seeking admission to the Physical Therapist Assistant Program will first need to apply to
BCCC (if not already enrolled) and have their official transcripts sent to the Admissions Office.
Transcripts sent to the Admissions Office will be evaluated for the possible transference of
appropriate and acceptable pre-requisite and General Education courses required for admission to
the PTA Program. A special application to the PTA Program is also required and is available
online, as per noted in section Fof this Educational Plan. An appointment with the Health
Professions Special Admissions Counselor (SAC) is advised (see information below) to establish
eligibility.
*The Biology Placement Test is prerequisite for BIO 107; BIO 202 and BIO 203 may be
substituted for BIO 107 with Science contingent upon department approval.
**Transfer course substitutions will be considered contingent upon department
approval.
A. Must have an overall GPA of 2.5 or higher for program entry.
B. Must complete prerequisite courses with a grade of 2.75 or better.
C. Sciences must be completed within 5 years of acceptance into the PTA program.
D. A video and quiz must be completed.
E. A Purpose Statement (350 words minimum) should be submitted with the program
application: 1) Please describe your academic experiences and either your work
experience, volunteer experience, or observational experience; 2) Please explain
why you wish to gain entry into the PTA program; and 3) How will this program
help you contribute to the broader community?
F. Program applications are accepted for Fall entry only. Program applications will be
available online at www.bccc.edu by the end of October. The deadline for
applications to be submitted via Canvas is March 31st.
Special Note: A student must successfully complete the Selective Admission Process to enroll
into the PTA program; however, the completion of PTA Program Requirements, DO NOT
guarantee entry into the PTA Program.
Selection Process:
All applications are received by the Special Admissions Counselor in the Admissions Office and are
reviewed by the PTA Admissions Committee (SAC and PTA Faculty) shortly after the deadline.
Applicants who meet all criteria are assigned points according to the following conditions
(11 points maximum):
All pre-requisites completed satisfactorily
+1
B in BIO 107 Anatomy and Physiology or
+2
B in BIO 202 & 203 Anatomy and Physiology I & II
+1 for each
GPA in pre-requisites 2.75 or 3.0 or 3.5 and more
+1 or +2 or +3
GPA overall 2.5-2.99 or 3.0-3.49 or 3.5 and more
+1 or +2 or +3

Mandatory completion of the program’s online quiz
+1
Multiple consecutive D's or F's before a C

BCCC reserves the right to modify the above process and point designations at any time in the
student’s enrollment. The outlined point system should not be deemed an irrevocable contract
between PTA applicants and Baltimore City Community College.
Course substitutions or CLEP exams, (other than Computer Literacy and Science courses)
may not be considered or accepted.
Acceptance:
All applicants will receive an e-mail or letter indicating their qualification status (not qualified,
qualified-accepted, qualified-on Waiting List). Up to 24 candidates will be invited to an Orientation
and Registration session in late May, early June or July. If all seats are not filled, an additional
Orientation and Registration will be scheduled for additional qualified applicants (from the Waiting
List). Priority is given to qualified students who have the highest GPA, and who have
completed all other General Education courses (HLF, SOC 101, SP 101, PSY 104).
Note: Under Maryland law, the Maryland Board of Physical Therapy Examiners may deny issuing a
PTA license to any candidate who has been convicted of a felony or a crime of moral turpitude.
Therefore, it is strongly advised that such an applicant consider the possibility of being denied
licensure if efforts to expunge a prior conviction are unsuccessful. The PTA Program faculty has no
authority regarding licensure.
For more information, contact Brittany Henderson of the Admissions Office (Rm 7) at 410-462-8411.

RESPIRATORY CARE PROGRAM
Selective Admission
Admission Selection Matrix
The Respiratory Care Program does not accept applicants into its Program who do not meet the
Minimum Entry Requirements. If the number of applicants exceeds the Program’s
available/open seats for any given Academic Year, the Program utilizes a Selective
Admission/Ranking Matrix to identify the candidates it will accept that year. The Program
applies this Matrix in descending order until it fills all available opening for the upcoming
Academic Year. That is, if the number of applicants exceeds the Program’s available/open
seats for any given Academic Year, the Program will first accept all students who satisfy the first
criteria (Criteria # 1). If the number of applicants who meet the Criteria # 1 allows the Program
to fill all available/open seats, the Program will accept no other applicants. If the number of
applicants who meet Criteria # 1 does not allow the Program to fill all available/open seats, the
Program will accept applicants who meet Criteria # 2. Again, if the number of applicants who
meet the Criteria # 1 or Criteria # 2 allows the Program to fill all available/open seats, the
Program will accept no other applicants. If the number of applicants who meet Criteria # 1 or
Criteria # 2 does not allow the Program to fill all available/open seats, the Program will accept
applicants who meet Criteria # 3, and so forth.
Selection Matrix Criteria
1. Total GPA - GPA > 3.0
2. GPA: Math and Science Prerequisites GPA > 3.0 in Math and Science
Prerequisites
3. GPA: Math and Other Sciences. Non-Prerequisites GPA > 3.0 Math and Other

4. GPA: Math and Science Prerequisites GPA = 2.75 2.99 in Math and Science

Selective Admissions & Criteria Process
The Surgical Technology Program uses a selective admission process, based upon a ranking system
that considers grades in pre-program courses, grades in foundation courses, previous work
experience in healthcare and an applicant’s cumulative college GPA at the time of admission. The
ranking system is designed to select for students most likely to succeed in the surgical technology
program. The applications will be ranked and those applicants who have met all pre-program entry
requirements and with the highest scores will be offered admission until all seats are filled.
What are the requirements for the Surgical Technology Program?
