All ASU dual credit courses follow the ASU Academic Calendar. This may vary slightly from your high school calendar. Please refer to the course syllabus or speak with the instructor about the course schedule.
Students can drop a class through the drop deadline each semester, which is posted on the ASU calendar. Please see your high school counselor to complete a Drop Request Form. All initials and signatures must be filled out. Your high school will return the completed form to the Angelo State Dual Credit Office. Please read all statements on the Drop Request Form carefully to understand how dropping a course may impact you.
The assignment of a grade in a course is the responsibility of the faculty member and is based on the professional judgment of the faculty member. Students having a grievance concerning a grade in a course should make every attempt to resolve the issue with the faculty member who has assigned the grade.
Students may formally appeal a final grade to their high school principal when taught by a teacher on the high school campus. Students may formally appeal a final grade in an online course to the department chair. The complete student grade appeal policy and procedure is listed in University Operating Policy 10.03, Grade Grievance.
All coursework taken through ASU will be calculated in an institutional GPA. Low grades can result in academic probation or suspension, and may affect your future financial aid eligibility. If you are not doing well in a class, you can drop before the drop deadline each semester. If you are considering dropping, you must contact your high school counselor to discuss how this will impact you - and to complete a Drop Request Form.
Students are placed on academic probation at the end of any term when an overall GPA of at least 2.0 is not achieved in college-level courses. Students on academic probation will be allowed to enroll in the next term, but may not register for more than six (6) hours of dual credit courses.
Dual credit students who enroll while on academic probation may continue to enroll in following terms, as long as at least a 2.0 GPA is achieved each term. Students who enroll in dual credit courses while on academic probation will be suspended from the following long semester if they fail to achieve at least a 2.0 GPA in dual credit courses for the current semester.
The ASU OneCard is the official identification card for all Angelo State students. It is used to access university services, such as the library.
You can order your OneCard in person at the OneCard Office or via email. If ordering in person, you will need to have a government-issued photo ID with you, such as a driver’s license, state-issued identification card or valid passport.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) establishes requirements regarding the privacy of student records, including the release of and access to student records, such as grades and semester schedules. As part of the application process, dual credit students give permission for ASU to disclose educational and financial records to high school representatives and parents/guardians included on the dual credit application while enrolled in ASU dual credit. This allows ASU to discuss dual credit-related matters with those parties via the phone and email.
If a dual credit student would like to provide their parent/guardian with additional access, such as the ability to view a detailed semester bill and check final grades through Ramport, the student must create a FERPA/Proxy Authorized User from their Ramport Account.
