Module 6 Wrap Up
Pull it together before you head back to your course.
You've reached the end of Module 6. These are the ideas to carry forward.
Key takeaways
- Knowledge Application turns "I know that" into "I did something with it." Connecting what you know about yourself to real academic decisions is the skill.
- Your interest results are a mirror, not a map. Look at your mix of interest types, not just the top one, and use it to find programs worth exploring.
- Credentials stack. Certificates can build into diplomas and AAS degrees. AA and AS degrees are built to transfer. Knowing the difference shapes your path.
- Plan like a strategist. Prerequisites, application deadlines, limited course offerings, and a realistic load matter as much as a schedule that fits.
- Specific questions make better appointments. Bring your results, a direction, and your questions to your Success Coach.
- Know how your grades work. Check each syllabus for points-based or weighted grading, and remember that credit hours weigh your GPA.
- Use AI to think, your advisor to decide. Keep personal details out, and check every requirement with your Success Coach or the catalog.
