Students encountering academic difficulty are encouraged to
reach out to the variety of support services and resources which are available to them on
campus. One of the most important things the student can do is to realize that early
intervention is the key to re-establishing good academic standing. Students are frequently
surprised not only at the differences between college and high school, but at the
ramifications of being on the Quarter System. Students encountering academic difficulty
need to realistically look at the underlying causes for their difficulties and contemplate
possible solutions.
Factors such as Unit Load, Study Hours, Time Management Skills,
Employment Hours, Family Responsibilities, Study Skills, Extracurricular Activities, and
Basic Skills Competencies should be evaluated. A good way to start this process is to
make an appointment with your
Academic Adviser.
Definitions of Good Academic Standing, Academic Probation and
Disqualification Status are discussed in Instructionally Speaking: Advising
Students at Academic Risk. Also included in this essay are
the formulas for Calculation of GPA and determination of GPBD Points. References are made
to the use of the Repeat Course Petition and to the process for Academic Renewal.
