Midterm Checklist

- Need Help in Your Classes?
- Yes: If you are having trouble in a class, make sure to get help before it is too late. Getting to know your instructor and talking with her or him about a problem as soon as you can will help you decide what to do. Academic advisors and counselors can also give you advice on what to do, and the earlier you talk with someone, the more options you have.
- No: Did you know that getting to know your instructor can help you better succeed in your classes? Academic advisors and counselors are also here to help get you the resources you need to succeed.
- Thinking of Withdrawing From a Class?
- Yes: Before you withdraw from a class, make sure to understand all your options and the impact they could have on your student record and account. Week 8 of the term is crucial. The Friday of that week is the last time you can withdraw from a class with a grade of “W” instead of an "F" or "NP" on your transcript. If you have Financial Aid or any other type of aid make sure to talk with the appropriate office before you withdraw from your class. Withdrawing could impact your aid. Academic Advisors and Counselors can help you figure out with whom you should talk.
- No: Prepare for next term by getting an early start on your academic planning. Academic advisors and counselors can help you plan your course schedule and discover majors that interest you.
