Important Fall Term Dates and Deadlines
By ctcLink Project Team, September 2, 2021
The following message was shared with students on Sept. 2, 2021 via their GRC email and Canvas. To view the fall term academic calendar visist: Academic Dates & Deadlines.
Hello Students,
We’re working hard to replace our old systems with new, up-to-date technology. On Oct. 11, 2021, Green River College will be transitioning its student management system to ctcLink. ctcLink is a new system that gives students, faculty, and staff anytime, anywhere access to their college business. ctcLink will contain all your important student information, including class schedules, student records, advising notes, financial aid, preferred contact information, etc.
Because this transition represents a complete systems shift, some of the usual (and important) fall quarter dates and deadlines have been shifted:
- Sept. 24, 2021
- Last day to add/drop courses in current system
- 100% tuition refund period ends
- Last day to pay tuition in current system
- Financial aid must be finalized in current system for fall quarter
- Emergency assistance applications submitted by September 10 will be processed
Note: Please be sure to have fall class registration and tuition payments done before Sept. 24, 2021. (The third STEP payment is not due until Oct. 26, 2021.) If registration changes need to be made between Sep. 25 and Oct. 25, an electronic form will be available to use to submit registration change requests.
To support this significant systems change, several student support services will be closed to the public (but working hard behind closed doors) between Oct. 1 – Oct. 22, 2021. These service areas include:
- Office of the Registrar
- Financial Aid
- Cashiering
- International Programs (Admissions & Business)
- Disability Support Services (partial closure)
- Veterans Services (partial closure)
Please know that we’ll do everything humanly possible to reopen these student support services as soon as possible. Processes normally handled through these offices will be suspended while the office is closed (e.g., transcripts, evaluations, admissions, registration, payments, etc.). Thank you for your patience!
