Student Affairs

Counselors assist students with the daily challenges of being a college student. Counselors are available to help new students navigate the admissions and registration process. They conduct orientation sessions which are designed to give new students valuable information about the college and its programs.

Prior to registration, counselors also assist students who have been placed on academic probation or academic suspension.

Academic Probation

Students are placed on academic probation when their grades have dropped below the 2.0 GPA average required for good standing as a college student. Students placed on academic probation are required to attend a "probation conference" or make an appointment with a counselor.

Suspension

Students are placed on suspension after two consecutive semesters on probation, and failure to earn either a cumulative 2.0 GPA or a term GPA of at least 2.0.

A student who has been academically suspended may be reinstated after remaining out of the college for at least a semester. To be reinstated to Jefferson Community & Technical College, students must make an appointment with a counselor before the start of classes. Students are not allowed to register without being reinstated.
