Alerts

Instructors are able to issue alerts in between progress reports. Alerts are a way to draw attention to a student who might be at risk for a variety of reasons, such as, needing tutoring, missing course materials, poor attendance, observations of student struggles, or other. Issuing an alert can draw attention to these students, create a virtual referral and prompt action from the student's academic advisors.

Select your primary concern or feedback (1 alert reason), when issuing an alert. Do not submit more than one alert per student. Choose your primary concern and provide a detailed comment that includes the other concerns. 

Comments are sent to the assigned advisor and student support staff. Comments are not sent to the student. See the for more information.
