Incompletes
Did you know that Learning Services can provide individual academic coaching to students who have Incompletes from Fall 2022 whether or not they are enrolled in Spring 2023 classes? Academic coaching helps students set goals, develop a study plan, and provides accountability. Students can make an appointment by calling 703-993-2999, stopping by SUB I, Suite 3600, or by going online http://go.gmu.edu/coaching
Academic Success Certificate
The Academic Success Certificate<https://learningservices.gmu.edu/academic-skills-certificate-program/> (ASC) program is an academic recovery program for students on academic warning, probation, or suspension, however, any student is welcome to complete the program. Delivered asynchronously through Blackboard, students attend an initial meeting with a Learning Specialist or Graduate Professional Assistant to discuss the program requirements and structure. Staff will also provide students with information about relevant campus resources to support students' individual needs. Students can complete this program whether or not they are enrolled in courses for the term. Upon completion of the program students are issued a certificate which they can provide to an academic department or to the office of Financial Aid. Students can make an appointment for an initial ASC meeting by calling 703-993-2999, stopping by SUB I, Suite 3600, or by going online http://go.gmu.edu/coaching
Please let me know if you have any questions about these supports.
