Straight Talk about How to Make it in College
- Buy your books before the first day of class. Do not remove the plastic or mark in your books until you know if you are in the right classes.
- Attend the first week of the term so you are not dropped from your classes.
- Go to classes every time they meet.
- Talk to Counseling staff if you are considering dropping any of your classes.
- Drop your classes before the end of the second week in order to receive a full refund and to avoid owing debt to the college.
- Inform funding sources such as Rogue Central staff if you are receiving funding from financial aid or community agencies if you drop classes.
- STAY home if you are sick and e-mail or call your instructors asking what assignments you need to make up while you are absent.
- Communicate with your instructors regularly about your progress or changes that may affect your classes.
- Meet with a counselor or advisor in the Counseling Department IMMEDIATELY if your personal, family, or work obligations interfere with your classes.
- Earn C-grades or better in your classes to be in good standing and to keep your financial aid.
- REMEMBER: Attend, buy your books, do the work, communicate with the teacher, tell us if you are having problems.
