Academic Status Report Resources

It’s likely you’re only at this web site because one of your instructors sent you an Academic Status Report. The purpose of this report is to notify you that you are not doing well in his or her class. The good news, however, is that you have time to address this issue 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 take 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.
