 Each student
is required to attend all academic advising sessions, Campus Experience
Institutes, workshops, and required tutoring in order to maintain
status as a regular participant and earn a stipend. Absences will
not be tolerated.
Under NO
circumstances will a student receive a stipend if he or she has
failed to attend all required events.
|
1) Should a student have a school or education related conflict,
he or she must inform the program staff in advance. If a student
misses a session and does not notify the program staff prior
to the absence, he or she will not receive a stipend and his
or her place in the program will be in jeopardy.
2) The second time a student is absent without informing
us in advance, he or she will be placed on probation.
3) The third time a student is absent without informing us
in advance, he or she will be placed on the alternate list
or dismissed from the program.
|
The program
staff will distribute stipends for students in good standing. Students
who have missed sessions or otherwise failed to meet program requirements
for any reason will not receive stipends.
Students who
are frequently absent but inform us in advance of their absences
may have to be placed on the alternate list due to our commitment
to total participation and because of the limited number of participant
spaces available.
Any Upward
Bound Program student who is not demonstrating a sincere commitment
to his or her education will be either placed on probation or will
be removed from the program.
Students are
required to provide original grade reports to program staff when
requested.
Students are
required to enroll in the following classes: at least 2 years of
foreign language; 3 years of social studies; 4 years of English;
4 years of science; 4 years of math; 1 year of computer technology.
Students who
at any time earn below a B- in any of their high school classes
will be required to attend a weekly tutoring session. Should a student
be unable to meet during the regularly scheduled tutoring times,
he or she must make arrangements for private tutoring through the
program office. Students who are required to attend tutoring will
be allowed no more than one absence from tutoring each month.
Students must
communicate effectively and regularly with their program office.
This includes reading mail, returning phone calls, returning mail,
and similar activities.

any contact information changes.
