Case Study #1 The student is currently on academic probation and needs a CSEP for a Financial Aid Reinstatement Appeal. The student wants to complete his Administration of Justice AS-T and transfer to a CSU. The student has attended West Los Angeles College for two semesters but is considering dropping out because he feels discouraged.
Student Engagement What drew you to this major? Are you a first-generation college student? Do you currently work? If so, how many hours per week? Outside commitments/health concerns? How do you prioritize your time? What obstacles did you encounter last semester that prevented you from passing your courses? What would you have done differently?
Growth Mindset Develop time management skills by prioritizing school over other commitments to invest in your future Adjust your CSEP to take a part-time load and take online courses Seek help from instructors, counselors, classmates, campus resources
Case Study # 2 The student is new to West Los Angeles College and is a first-generation college student. The student is unfamiliar with the higher education system and is undecided regarding her major. She feels anxious about starting college.
Student Engagement What subjects did you enjoy most in high school? What are your interests? Describe your values. Describe your dream job. Are you a first-generation college student? Have you ever done an informational interview?
Growth Mindset Learn about different pathways by meeting with your counselor; develop a CSEP (roadmap) Ask questions to improve your understanding of college policies Visit instructors during office hours for specific questions/concerns and the Learning Resource Center for academic support
