General Policies
A great resource if you need to update yourself on our processes or access helpful templates.
What is the Program, Policies, and Procedures Manual?
The platform that needs to be updated when Scholars/Sponsors should no longer be receiving mentoring forms?
What is TextMagic?
Up to 4 years to complete an Associate's Degree and up to 8 years to complete a Bachelor's Degree
What is our time limit policy?
The indicator we need to add to a Scholar's profile when they're on first-chance probation.
What is a yellow flag?
(True or False) To have updated grades be counted towards their Spring 2023 credit count and GPA, a scholar must submit grades for any Spring 2023 incompletes by June 1st.
False (July 1st)
The event we create in NewOrg to document semester GPA and credit completion. This must be completed at the end of each semester for every Scholar.
What is an education history?
The Scholar should be leading this meeting with the Hope Coach and Sponsor. The Scholar should reflect on the previous semester(s) and identify specific strategies that they will employ to be successful next semester.
What is the Lace Chance Probation meeting?
(True or False) Each closure and probation event on NewOrg must be accompanied by the corresponding letter that was sent to Scholars/Sponsors.
True
These are incredibly rare, but, if granted, they usually occur if the Scholar came close to meeting the GPA requirement this past semester, is within 1 semester of graduating, or had something truly unusual happen to them this past semester.
What is a last chance probation appeal?
To best prepare for these meetings (that can begin as early as June!), it is recommended that Hope Coaches begin preparing now (e.g., creating sign-up links, blocking off time on calendars, etc.).
