Georgia Gwinnett College-[node:field-date:custom:Y]--Timely Interventions

Strategy/Project Description: 

GGC has established an Office of Advising Programs. The Office is staffed by a Director, Assistant Director and 4 professional advisors, with two additional advisers as of August 2015. The Office of Advising Programs also offers programs to students who have been placed on academic suspension. The Grizzly Renewal Opportunity Workshop (GROW) program is designed to support students who have been placed on academic suspension.  The program allows students to remain enrolled despite their academic standing provided they agree to and comply with the conditions stated in the GROW Program Contract. The program engages participants in activities designed to help them improve their academic success skills, get back on track, and improve their academic standing. Students who do not elect to participate in the program in the fall/spring semester immediately following their suspension will have to sit out the following semester and will need to appeal to the Admissions Committee for readmission.  During the upcoming year, GGC plans to expand services to include a program for students on academic probation and a possible program for students returning from academic suspension.
