Campus Resources

It's likely you're only at this web site because one of your instructors
sent you a warning that you were not
doing well in his or her class.
The good news, however, is that you have time to address these
issues if you act now.
First
things first, if you haven't done so already, go talk to your
instructor. He or she wants you to succeed and
is your best resource. Your syllabus will list office
hours and contact information, but you have to make that next
step. Prepare for your meeting by listing the issues you
want to address. You might ask:
-
Where do I currently stand in the class?
-
What can I do to perform better in class?
-
What
am I missing and how can I get caught up??
-
Am
I studying the best way possible for this class?
-
What scores do
I need on future tests and assignments to get an A, B, or C?
Another
helpful person is your academic advisor. You can locate
your advisor by using ASU's Advising
Directory. Again, prepare for that meeting in much the
same way. Your questions might include:
-
Am
I in the right class?
-
What are my options for withdrawing from a class at this
date?
-
What campus resources exist that can help me improve my
grade?
-
Is this class essential for my prospective major?
-
How can I set myself up for success in my classes in
future semesters?
Finally,
use this web site to access the multitude of resources ASU
offers to students in need of help. We've categorized
these resources as best we can, but understand that many
problems are multi-faceted and may require attention from more
than one source. You may have to 'surf' a bit to find what
you need, but your effort will be rewarded.
