Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) For independent
					 study, correspondence, work-experience education and distance education courses
					 using the attendance accounting procedure specified in subdivision (f) of
					 section 58003.1, one weekly student contact
					 hour shall be counted for each unit of credit for which the student is enrolled
					 as of the census day prescribed in section
					 58003.1(b) or (c),
					 except for independent study, correspondence, or distance education laboratory
					 courses. For independent study, correspondence, or distance education
					 laboratory courses, weekly student contact hours shall be equivalent to those
					 which would be generated for the same student effort in a laboratory course
					 computed pursuant to subdivisions (b) or (c) of section
					 58003.1 and that would correspond
					 to traditional length (non-compressed) primary terms. For purposes of this
					 section only, a "distance education laboratory course" means a distance
					 education course which consists partly or exclusively of laboratory
					 work.
(b) For credit courses,
					 full-time equivalent student in courses described in subdivision (a) offered
					 during primary terms is computed by multiplying the weekly student contact
					 hours authorized pursuant to subdivision (a), generated as of the census date
					 prescribed in section
					 58003.1(b) by 17.5
					 for colleges on the semester system and by 11.67 for colleges on the quarter
					 system, and dividing by 525.
(c)
					 For noncredit courses described in subdivision (a), full-time equivalent
					 student is computed on a census basis as prescribed in section
					 58003.1(f)(2).
(d) Full-time equivalent student in credit
					 courses described in subdivision (a) which are conducted during a summer or
					 other intersession is computed by multiplying the weekly student contact hours,
					 authorized pursuant to subdivision (a) of this section, generated in each
					 course, by a course length multiplier that produces the same total weekly
					 student contact hours for the same student effort as would be generated in such
					 courses conducted in the primary terms, and dividing by 525.
