Introduction to Student Life Policies

All students are expected to comply with the policies and procedures of Young Harris College. The Guide to Student Life contains the policies most relevant to students (“Student Life Policies”) and the College’s website (yhc.edu) contains additional general policies that all students should observe. The policies of the College are under continual examination and revision.

The Guide to Student Life is not a contract; it merely presents the policies in effect at the time of publication and in no way guarantees that the policies will not change. The College and its students, faculty, and staff are also subject to all local, state, and federal laws and statutes.

Alleged violations of law by any student, whether on or off campus, are subject to college investigation, review, and action (including student conduct proceedings), in addition to any action taken by the proper civil authorities. Each member of the College community is individually responsible for being informed of the law. Ignorance of federal, state, or local laws or college policies will not be accepted as an excuse for prohibited conduct.

Student Life Policies are applicable to all Young Harris College students, visitors, and guests.
