TIDE Early Alert Program

PURPOSE: The purpose of the Tide Early Alert program is to ensure students success. The Tide Early Alert Program will identify first-year students within the first three to six weeks of the semester who have:

  • Received a D or F on an assignment, test, or paper
  • Excessive absences
  • Exhibiting behavior inconsistent with a productive and successful student

PHILOSPHY: Intervention with students during the first six weeks of the academic year has a long term positive impact on academic success and retention. Most habits are formed within the first three weeks of class. The approach of the intervention will be caring and supportive, versus disciplinary in nature.
