Academic Action Plan / e-Contract
NOTE:  Downloading the e-Contract with the link above [by right-clicking and saving (PC) or downloading (MAC)] is recommended, as opposed to opening it and using it on the web.  PC users, set your Excel macro security level to 'medium'.

This spreadsheet should be used for developing an action plan with a student to state grade goals, demonstrate how those goals will improve GPA, and other supportive activities for student to complete during the quarter to ensure academic success [further details are available on the COMPONENTS for a supportive action plan].
A TUTORIAL is available for learning how to use the e-contract [printing and using the tutorial hardcopy is recommended].

Academic Action Plan Procedures
Students receive this document in their Dean's office email/letter, informing them of the steps they must complete before meeting with you as the advisor. Then, you will develop a contract with them as a result. This helps the student reflect on their situation, and explain it to you completely.  NOTE: what the student brings to the advisor is NOT the action plan/contract.

First-time Freshman Contract Process
A two-sided document, which the first side is completed by the student before meeting with the advisor. The second side is a contract template that should be completed during the advising appointment. This is used with our first-year students on AP after their first quarter, and serves as an early intervention program. It is compulsory and they will have a hold on their registration for the spring quarter if they do not comply.

University Advising Resources
General advising and student services to which an advisor can refer students in the process of good academic advising. A two-sided document that can be printed and kept in a convenient location for frequent use.
