Watch this orientation! 

Where do students have the most difficulty?

We see most withdrawals and low grades at the very beginning of the program. Speech can be a difficult class and students may not be used to balancing college level work with their high school schedule

The College Success Seminar only allows you one absence. 

The full semester classes only allow you four absences for classes that meet two times a week.
