The Achieving Academic Success Workshop (AASW) provides the student with an understanding of the BYU—Idaho academic policies, resources available to each student, and how to return to Satisfactory Academic Standing.
A student on Academic Warning or Academic Probation is automatically enrolled in the online version of AASW accessible through I-Learn at the beginning of each semester. If you do not see the "AASW" Workshop in the Course List section of your I-Learn account; send an email to srrpetitions@byui.edu with the subject line "Please Add Me to AASW" and your name and I# in the message and we will add you to the workshop.
The workshop takes a combined 2-3 hours to complete online.
The workshop does not have to be completed all at once. However, it is most advantageous to complete the workshop within the first three weeks of your next semester of enrollment.
Completing the workshop within the first three weeks of a semester gives you an understanding of the academic policies that affect your academic standing before the withdrawal deadline for full semester courses.
The student needs to complete the workshop by the first three weeks of their on-track semester. If the student has an off-track semester after the hold is placed on their account, they can complete the workshop during that off-track semester.
If the student has not completed the workshop before grades are posted at the end of the student’s next semester of enrollment the student’s academic status will not return to Satisfactory Academic Standing.
The AASW hold does NOT restrict the ability to register for courses. AASW holds only restrict the student's ability to have their Academic Warning or Probation lifted at the end of the semester. If the student does not complete the AASW Workshop by the end of their next semester of enrollment, their academic status will not change.
Students on Academic Warning and Probation are automatically enrolled in the online version of AASW. It is recommended that all students (both online and on-campus students) complete the online AASW. However, the Student Records and Registration Office offers some on-campus workshops. The on-campus AASW Workshops are listed below:
