TALK
TO YOUR STUDENT
Talk regularly with your student about academics. Possible topics could include:
• Identification of classes that fulfill the general education requirements.
• Advising appointments and if the student has selected all courses for early registration; if they know about their time ticket, and their early registration time assignment.
• For seniors, if they have applied for graduation and have met with their college records officer.
• Request the student to set up a log-
in and password for you to access the tuition and fees charges so you can see the itemized charges and payments.
• Request to see specific information, e.g., to print information from the student information system (UI Integrate/Banner) that shows the student’s schedule, their academic history, grades (midterm and final), and GPA.
• Request the student to order an official university transcript (fee required).
• Request the student to print their degree audit report, which shows progress toward degree requirements and what is still needed. Questions about this report should be referred to the college office.
Parents can be very helpful by looking through these documents and asking questions pertaining to interpretation of the report. Sometimes students miss key information.
