Is Your Fall Financial Plan Set?
By now, you and your coach should have discussed your financial plan for Fall 2017. Make sure that you know what next steps you need to complete. We encourage you to complete all steps by the end of next week in order to be sure that your aid or scholarship is ready for fall.
Monitoring Your Grades/Progress
If you're in college classes, don't forget to check your midterm grades in LoLA. The grade you'll see is your total grade so far in each class. Here's how to check:
Visit www.dcc.edu
Log into LoLA
Click on Delgado Community College under Self Service
Click on Student
Click on Student Records
Select "Grades"
If you're in certification classes, make sure you know what tests you'll need to pass in order to earn your certification, and ask your coach or instructor if you want ideas about how to prepare. You must pass your certification in order to move on to college courses next semester, and we want to help you get there!
