Information for Advisors

Purpose of Early Alerts Heading link

The purpose of early alerts is to provide a means of communication between faculty, students, and advisors so that:

  • Students can address issues promptly enough in the semester to hopefully prevent serious consequences;
  • Advisors can assist students in navigating their academic experience, and;
  • Advisors can make referrals to campus resources, etc.
