Accessing the Mid-Semester Advisory

According to the Faculty Senate’s  Mid-Semester Advisory policy, it is expected that ���Ĵ�ý receive early advisory that reflects on their progress in their courses. The policy applies to all fall and spring full-term undergraduate courses. The mid-semester advisory is a simple indication of student performance to date:  “satisfactory” / “reason for concern”.  Mid semester advisories should be submitted by the seventh week of the Fall and Spring semester. The mid-semester advisory does not get computed directly into the final grade for the course.

By week four of the Fall and Spring semester, faculty will receive an email message requesting their feedback about the academic progress of undergraduate ���Ĵ�ý enrolled in each class they teach. Faculty can submit progress reports to ���Ĵ�ý using the link in email or by logging in to access the link through the portal. Please note: all comments written are visible to ���Ĵ�ý.
