Matriculation -- a pathway to success in college
Martriculation
Matriculation is a process that brings the college and the student into an agreement for the purpose of realizing the student's educational goals.
The college agrees to provide:
-
An admissions application process
-
An orientation to the college's programs and services
-
An assessment of the student's study skills, English language proficiency, computational skills, goals, career aspirations, academic performance, and need for special services
-
Counseling and advisement to develop a student education goal
The student agrees to:
-
Express at least a broad educational intent upon admission
-
Declare an educational goal by the time the student has completed 15 units
-
Attend classes
-
Work diligently to complete course assignments
-
Demonstrate effort toward attainment of an educational goal
-
Meet with a counselor to develop a student educational plan (SEP) that will meet his/her unique goals
Matriculation goals are partially fulfilled through the ACAD-100 class. Students who intend to graduate from San Bernardino Valley College are required to complete ACAD-100 within the first two semesters in which they are enrolled in 9 or more units.
