Probation/Dismissal Workshops

Our workshops are designed to assist students who are having difficulty with successfully maintaining a "good standing" status in their academic/progress achievement. The purpose of the workshop is to understand your academic record, evaluate your academic situation, create SMART goals and develop a Plan of Action.  By the end of the workshop, students are empowered with tools, strategies, advisement, and specific goals to get back to good standing with the college.
