Academic Programs
SUNY Ulster offers academic credit programs that lead to degrees, certificates, or diplomas.
SUNY Ulster On‐Track
Students accepted for study in degree, diploma, or certificate programs and whose academic records or Entering Student Assessment scores, or both, indicate a need to strengthen learning skills to improve their chances for success will be required to enroll in the On-Track Program. This program’s courses are precollege level and may not apply toward degree, diploma, or certificate requirements.
On-Track courses are designed to help students achieve proficiency in communications (reading, writing, listening, and speaking), mathematics, and general study skills. The courses emphasize an individual approach which utilizes an assessment of each student’s needs in planning a meaningful course of study. Academic records of students will be reviewed at the end of each semester to determine the students’ academic progress.
Placement in two or more of the following classes places you in On-Track:
Students may opt to take SUNY Ulster Summer Advantage for an opportunity to retest and advance to college-level courses in the fall semester.
SUNY Ulster Advantage is a five-week program meeting four mornings per week. With classes kept small so you receive individual attention, the mornings will go by quickly with blocks of time for reading, computerized math programs, tutoring, writing instruction and workshops on skills development. You will begin at your level and progress at your own pace.
Watch your skills improve in just five weeks. Then take your Assessment Test again for another chance to place into college-level courses.

Employment Strategies
SUNY Ulster offers credit-bearing courses designed to help students orient themselves to the College learning environment, to make the best use of College resources, and to plan for future careers. The following courses are described in the Course Descriptions section of this Catalog:
Distance Learning
Distance learning options offered through SUNY Ulster provide students with access to a course or a program of study outside traditional classroom settings. While distance learning is not for everyone, it provides students suited to that style of learning with an opportunity to attend school from anywhere they have reliable computer and Internet access. Students who take SUNY Ulster distance learning courses are expected to abide by the College’s Student Academic Honesty Policy (Student Rights & Responsibilities ). All homework and assignments are to be done by the student individually unless the instructor advises that the assignment is a team or group project.
The following information applies to all distance learning options offered by SUNY Ulster:
- Students who do well in online courses are students who are visual and/or audio-visual learners. Assistance with determining their learning style may be found at the Learning Center on campus or online through the College’s website.
- Students should have knowledge of Microsoft Word and/or Google Drive. Assistance with Microsoft Office And Google Drive may be found with the Student Technology Coordinator in the Library.
- Students must be well-disciplined and able to manage their time and prioritize tasks well.
- Students should be aware that participation in the online portion of a class, or in a fully online course, will take longer than participation in a face-to-face class.
- Because online classes are substantially more reading and writing intensive, students should have a minimum of college-level reading and writing skills.
- Students are required to either own a computer or have regular access to one several times a week.
- Students must have, or have access to, reliable Internet service. The College has open labs both on the Stone Ridge campus and at the Business Resource Center.
- Students may be required to have access to a library or library services.
- Course materials for both classroom (where applicable) and online meetings may include any or all of the following: lectures, PowerPoint presentations, over-heads, discussions and/or work groups, writing assignments, hands-on practice, audio or visual presentations, guest lecturers; instructor use of a computer for (i) demonstrations (ii) Internet access (iii) expanding on lecture material; student use of a computer for (i) discussions among classmates and/or with instructor, (ii) writing assignments, (iii) projects, (iv) research, (v) exams, (vi) note taking, (vii) hands-on assignments or lab work.
- The instructor may require students to log into a course and participate in discussions a minimum number of times per week or take timed and/or proctored exams.
- Instructor help may be available only through e-mail, private communications within a course, or telephone.
The following distance learning options are available at SUNY Ulster:
Hybrid/Blended
Classes are held in a traditional classroom setting for 20 to 80% of the class meeting times, with the balance of class time completed online. Traditional classroom meeting days will be published in the class schedule each semester, and the instructor will determine the online meeting schedule. Students who do well with this type of course are visual or audio-visual learners.
Courses may be also offered completely online. These hybrid courses meet in an asynchronous environment for 20 to 80% of class meeting times and in a synchronous environment for the balance of the class time. The synchronous component will use tools such as Eluminate and Skype may be used to allow students to interact with their instructors and classmates in “real time.”
Online Courses
Fully online classes enable the instructor and the students to be located anywhere in the world. The instructor determines the number of times per week or per lecture students must participate, as well as the form of participation. Participation may include online discussion, group work, sharing of Internet research findings, or any other activity the instructor deems appropriate. All these activities take place online. These are not self-paced courses unless specified by the instructor. Students who do well with this type of course are visual learners since there is no face-to-face Interaction with either the instructor or classmates. Instructors may require exams be taken face-to-face with either the instructor or an approved proctor. Students who use or choose to use, a proctor are required to find a proctor and pay any expenses that may be incurred (although it is unusual to incur expenses).
Synchronous
Synchronous courses require student participation at times specified by the instructor. The instructor may require students to be present in all class activities at a specific time (as if they were meeting in a classroom), or may require student presence only during certain times, or may allow students to participate in course activities within a prescribed time period.
Asynchronous
Students may log into the course any time of the day or night; the instructor may not require attendance in the course at a specified day and time, but will set due dates for the completion of both class participation and assignments. Some courses may require attendance on campus or the use of an approved proctor for midterm and final exams.
