Although the primary audience is returning freshmen and sophomore students recently placed on academic probation, any student who believes he or she may benefit from the workshops may attend. 鈥淭hese workshops are being offered to help students get their semester started聽in a positive and helpful manner,鈥� said ASC Director Kimberly Bright. In addition, Bright suggested students visit with their advisor about re-registering for certain classes in which a poor grade was received. Also, a visit to Financial Aid to see how probation may affect continued access to financial aid is highly recommended. 鈥淚f a student received one or more poor grades, one of the best ways to avoid a聽negative impact on their academic standing is to retake those classes,鈥澛燘right said. 鈥淭he sooner the student gets that GPA up, the quicker they are able to be in聽good academic standing and off probation; this is something all of us聽want for our students.鈥� For more information about the workshops, call Bright at 501.569.3280.
