Prior
to the end of the seventh week of the semester, faculty are required to
report to the registrar the name of each student making unsatisfactory
progress in any nursing course. Students who receive warnings are
advised to consult with their academic adviser. Warning notices are to
be taken seriously. They may be issued for a variety of reasons,
including poor attendance, failure to submit assignments on time,
inadequate preparation for the level of coursework expected, or an
inability to demonstrate a reasonable grasp of the subject matter.
A
warning is not a final determination of a grade. With proper advice and
sufficient effort, students receiving such a notice may be able to
improve their performance to an acceptable level. On the other hand,
failure to receive a warning notice does not imply that a passing grade
will be awarded at the end of the semester.
