Mid-Term Grades – Action Required

Have you checked your mid-term grade report? Depending upon what you find you need to consider taking some action.

Mid-Term grade entry is not comprehensive: YOU NEED TO CHECK IN WITH EACH OF YOUR PROFESSORS TO BE CERTAIN YOU ARE IN PASSING YOUR CLASSES.

Please note: The deadline to withdraw from classes is this Friday, November 5, 2010.

To check your mid-term grades in MYGFU –

    1. CLICK ON SELF-SERVICE
    1. CLICK ON ENROLLMENT
    1. CLICK ON VIEW MY GRADES
    1. CLICK ON THE CORRECT TERM
    1. CLICK ON THE MID-TERM GRADES TAB
  • Now you need to determine what to do next:

    1. Consider whether to withdraw from one or more courses if it looks likely that you’ll get an F (or maybe even a D).

    1. The last date to withdraw is Friday November 5th, at 5 p.m. You can usually go below 12 hours (at this point in the semester) without impacting your financial aid.
    1. Withdrawal results in a W on your transcript but does not factor into GPA. If you were to get an F, it would impact GPA.
    1. Confirm any thoughts of withdrawing from classes with your advisor.
    1. Meet with each professor, especially those teaching courses you’re struggling in. Even if your professor doesn’t post mid-term grades, find out from the professor what your grade is.
    1. Meet with your advisor to discuss options.
    1. Use labs, help sessions, & the ARC.
    1. If you think you might have a learning disability, have some assessment done. Contact the Health and Counseling Center at 503-554-2340 or stop by their offices.
    1. Plan well for Spring semester.

    Consider whether you are in the right pathway in terms of a major or career. You might want to enroll in GEED 214: Claim Your Career Calling, a 1-hour online course:
