Do distance learning courses have orientation sessions or other on-campus meetings?
For Online Courses: It depends on the course. Most of our online courses do not require an on-campus orientation session, but some do. Students should contact their instructor immediately if they cannot attend a scheduled on-campus orientation (if applicable). Most online course instructors conduct all of their testing online, but some may require students to come to campus for a proctored midterm or final exam. Check with the instructor to determine if proctored on-campus testing is required for your particular class. Review the Seminole State College Catalog and the Distance Learning Welcome page, or contact your course instructor for more information about on-campus requirements. For Online/Campus Courses: Yes, but on-campus requirements will vary by term and course. Review the Seminole State College Catalog and the Distance Learning Welcome page, or contact your course instructor for information about required meeting days, times and locations.
