Academics
Count on us to reach out to you about midterm and final grades, course registration, and much more. Whether it’s an individual appointment, a sponsored workshop, or an announcement in our IP Picks bi-weekly student bulletin – we’ll be working to ensure you have the resources you need to be a successful student.
Don’t forget, in order to remain eligible for the I-Promise Scholarship, students must meet the Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements as outlined by the Office of Student Financial Aid. This means it is essential that you:
- Rely on the professional staff within your academic program for assistance with course selection and schedule changes. Remember: eligibility for the scholarship runs for 4 years, fall and spring terms only.
- Manage your time and priorities appropriately and get involved on campus.
- Reach out for personal and academic support early and often. It’s ok to ask questions.
Closely monitor your progress in each course and be prepared to take action when necessary. Stay informed of important dates and deadlines. See the Spring 2024 calendar below.
