DLA E-Lert for June 19, 2009

No Day-4 Report

NCVPS will not issue a Day-4 report today. There have been many late adds and numerous labs that opened late. NCVPS does not want to administratively drop any students who are working or coming in late.

NCVPS will administratively drop any students who have not logged in by the end of Week 2. We will send that drop list to your dropbox file in the registration system. It will be a drop list, not a no-show report.

Until then, teachers will keep DLAs apprised by email of students who have not yet logged in. Please go ahead and drop students who you know are not going to participate this summer.

Here is a 1-pager on how to drop students in the registration system if you have not done it before: Dropping Students in the Registration System


Learn and Earn Online

We all know about the College Fund of NC (CFNC.org). We’ve all visited the website, http://www.cfnc.org/ , and shown students how to apply to college on the CFNC website, right? If you haven’t, take a look around. Not only is this a great site for students planning to attend a NC college or university but it has a great new tool to assist our LEO students.

The Student Transfer Navigator:

http://www.cfnc.org/planner/student_transfer_navigator/tn_landing.jsp

allows students to keep up college courses taken in high school and informs students as to which courses will transfer to which UNC campus. Soon the Student Transfer Navigator will provide guidance on how groups of courses might transfer to a degree program.

Right now students pursuing the Associate of Arts (AA), Associate of Science (AS), or student who will complete the 44-hour general education core should refer to the Comprehensive Articulation Agreement (CAA) or Independent Comprehensive Articulation Agreement (ICAA) for information on the transferability of courses as a block.

Don’t forget to use the checklist found under the LEO tab in the DLA Spa.


A DLA by any other name

There has been some debate about changing the official name of the DLA to something more contemporary. How do you as a DLAs feel about that?

Let your Regional VLC know your thoughts, ideas, or even a suggested new name.
