Student
Expectations and Responsibilities
You may be expected to complete course work to fulfill your
high school curriculum requirements along with the college level
curriculum. This will require more effort and work to meet the
increased rigor of the Dual Credit classes.
- The college grades you earn in a Dual Credit course will become
part of your permanent college record and the grades may affect you
in various ways. For example, a poor grade in a course that is a
prerequisite to another course would prevent you from enrolling in
the secondary course.
- The ‘numeric to letter grade’ scales for your
particular high school and Aims may differ. It may be possible
to receive a passing high school grade while receiving a failing
college grade or vice versa. High school policies apply regarding
the awarding of high school grades. College policies apply regarding
the awarding of college grades. Take time to become familiar with
both policies. Aims policies can be found in the College Catalog.
- You will be expected to perform at the college level and to
honor all deadlines declared by the College or your instructor.
Pay careful attention to your instructor’s grading system.
A course syllabus detailing class policies and specific course
requirements are distributed by your instructor during the first
week of class.
Note for online students: You must pay even more
attention to your instructor’s policies since you will have
an Aims instructor as opposed to your high school instructor.
- Many college instructors do not allow you to repeat work to improve
grades for poorly done assignments or exams. There may or may not be extra
credit assignments to supplement your grade. You should not expect it.
- You have the responsibility of staying current with the
course.
- “Class Attendance” is described by the instructor.
This attendance may affect your overall grade.
- Your online Aims grade is your high school grade. This may
affect your GPA calculations for high school purposes.
- Aim s Community College has established a system of rights and
responsibilities for students collectively known as the “Student
Code of Conduct.” It helps
to explain students’ rights, responsibilities, grievances
and complaints procedures, rules and regulations for general student
behavior, discipline policies, and general guidelines that all
students are expected to follow. Please review these rules found
here.
