If the illness is acute and absence is expected to be lengthy, the student may call Student Affairs for assistance in contacting instructors or in determining if withdrawal is preferable.

What is the Academic Progress Alert?

The Academic Progress Alert is a report sent to all undergraduate students for each 100 level course in which they are enrolled. Instructors will issue letter grades (A-F) or report that no meaningful grade is available, and provide optional information regarding attendance (satisfactory, unsatisfactory, unable to determine), to the Office of the University Registrar by the published deadline.

The Office of the University Registrar will process the grades and send the grade reports to students at their local addresses as soon as possible after reporting, but no later than the ninth week. The grade report will list the grades earned, attendance information and GPA for 100 level courses only. Students are encouraged to discuss their academic progress with their instructors and advisors.
