1. YOUR PATHWAY TO SUCCESS
Your introductory or title slide should convey the overall “feeling” and focus of your presentation. For instance, I typically present about small-business trends, new business ideas, growth opportunities or other positive trends. In this sample presentation, I’m talking about new business ideas, so I used a sun graphic in this slide template to convey a positive feeling. Personalize this slide template with your company’s logo.
To add a logo to all slides, place it on the Slide Master. To access the Slide Master, on the Themes tab of the Ribbon, click Edit Master and then click Slide Master.

14. SUMMER SESSION – Academic Probation
Summer session does not count toward Academic Probation status.
EX: Joe is on first semester Academic Probation at the end of a spring semester. In the summer session he received under a 2.0 GPA. This would not put him on second semester probation status. When the following fall semester starts he will still be considered on first semester probation.
However, Summer can be used as an opportunity to get off Academic Probation.

I like to speak spontaneously, so I use PowerPoint as an outline to keep me on track. It’s best to keep your PowerPoint text brief, simply reinforcing key points you will talk about at more length. You can use this slide template to convey a series of steps or related points in a short format.

21. HOW TO GET OFF PROBATION
Academic Renewal
Requirements:
One year has passed since the completion of a substandard grade.
Completed 12 consecutive units with a GPA of 2.00 or above since the completion of the sub-standard grade(s).
Make a Counseling appointment to start this process.
Repeating classes
Classes in which a D, F, W, NC were received can be repeated. If you are repeating the class for the first time, and pass with a C or better, the higher grade will be counted in the GPA, not the previous D, F, W, NC grade.

22. 4th REPETITION OF A COURSE
If you want to repeat the same course for a fourth time, in which you received a grade symbol of “D”, “F”, “NC”, or “W”, you will need to fill out a Course Repeat Petition.
You are required to…
Meet with a counselor to fill out the Course Repeat Petition.
Meet all current prerequisites prior to repeating the course.
Submit Course Repeat Petition to Admissions and Records Office.
Once the Course Repeat Petition is processed, Admissions office will notify you if the petition is approved or denied via your Delta student .
If the petition is approved, request permission to repeat the course by providing a copy of the approved Course Repeat Petition form to the instructor and completing an Add Form.
You cannot…
Register online or get on the waiting list for the course.
Drop the course once you are enrolled. You will be required to receive a grade for the course.

23. PROBATION AND DISMISSAL APPEALS
2nd Sem. Probation Appeal: Priority Registration and CCPG Fee Waiver
Requirements:
Evidence of extenuating circumstances (e.g. illness, accident, injury) that affected the student’s usual level of academic performance.
Meet with a counselor to fulfill the appeal requirements.
If the appeal is granted, priority registration and/or CCPG fee waiver will be restored.
Dismissal Appeal
Requirements:
Student must meet with a counselor within 30 days after the dismissal notification was sent.
Student must be prepared to clearly explain and provide evidence of what extenuating circumstances (e.g. Illness, accident, injury) existed.
If justified the counselor will approve the appeal.

24. FACTORS THAT LEAD TO SUCCESS
TIME MANAGEMENT:
Keep a daily/weekly/monthly schedule to keep you on track.
Set priorities for how to utilize your time.
PRIORITIES SHOULD INCLUDE:
Attendance – Attend all classes
Homework – Complete all assignments and turn them in on time
Academic Support – Tutoring, Study Groups, Counseling
Sleep/Health – Get at least 8 hrs. of sleep, eat right, and take care of health needs

25. BALANCING WORK/FAMILY/FRIENDS
College (12 units or more) is a full time job.
If you are working full time consider taking fewer units, or work fewer hours so you can devote enough time to successfully passing your courses.
Spend less money so you can work fewer hours.
Arrange reliable childcare in advance and have a back up plan.
Share your educational /career goals with family and friends to gain their support and understanding of your time demands.

26. NEEDS WANTS BUDGETING/SPENDING
Prioritize your budget by spending your money on: “NEEDS” FIRST not “WANTS”
NEEDS
Food
Shelter
Health Needs
Basic Transportation
Books
Childcare
Basic Clothing
WANTS
Designer Clothes and Shoes
Designer Accessories
Frequent Eating Out
Entertainment/Travel
Manicures
Cable TV
Expensive Car/Rims

27. STAYING OFF PROBATION
Strive for the highest grades possible with no less than a “C” in all classes.
Take advantage of support services.
Know the drop dates and officially withdraw from courses before the drop deadlines.
