Additional Rights and Responsibilities can be found in the Student Handbook.
Campus Behavior
North Central Texas College reserves the right to take disciplinary measures appropriate to any violation and in keeping with its own best interests and the interests of other students. Such disciplinary action may result in a student being placed on probation or suspension from the college. In the latter case, a student will be given the opportunity to show their innocence or mitigating circumstances in a hearing before a Student Services Committee. This committee may uphold previous decisions or refer the case to the Chancellor of the college for final review.
Student Records
Each individual student at NCTC is responsible for seeing that their records are kept accurate and up to date. If, after registration, a student changes their name, address, telephone number, social security number, or any other personally identifiable information, the Admissions/Registrar’s Office should be notified as soon as possible.
Students who receive financial aid should also be sure that their mailing address is up to date in the Office of Financial Aid. North Central Texas College is not responsible for financial aid award checks, grades, or other documents/correspondence not received because of their failure to notify the Registrar of address changes.

As provided under this act, NCTC will–unless expressly requested in writing (to follow) not to do so by the student–release to the public, on request, certain student information. This will be restricted to “directory information,” defined under FERPA as “not generally considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if disclosed.”
