The Early Warning Referral System is designed for Navarro College students who are experiencing academic and attendance problems. This system is set up and funded by the Student Support Services grant as a method of allowing the Counseling Center to intervene in the face of student issues through the assistance of counseling, tutorial referrals, and/or agency referrals.

Instructors are encouraged to utilize this electronic referral procedure to make students aware of our concern when they are showing low attendance or having problems with in-class or test performance. Upon receiving the counseling copy, the Early Warning Retention Counselor will determine the need for further intervention and initiate appropriate action.
 
The Early Warning Referral System can be a valuable retention service both to the students and to Navarro College. This program is expected to enhance academic excellence, to help create greater success for the students, and to increase course completion and graduation rates. It takes each of us working together to make this a successful program.
 
Any student failing to meet the standards listed in the current Navarro College Catalog, as quoted below, would qualify for assistance under the program. However, individual instructors should feel free to employ their own judgments in determining whether a student would benefit from the Early Warning Referral System.
 

·         MINIMUM STANDARD OF WORK:  A cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or better on a 4.0 scale is required for a student to graduate from any degree or certificate program within the College.  Because it is necessary for a student to maintain this average in order to graduate, a 2.0 GPA is considered the minimum standard of work at Navarro College.  Failure to maintain this minimum standard results in a student being placed on scholastic probation.  It is the student’s responsibility to know that the minimum standard of work requirement has been satisfied, and whether he or she is eligible to continue enrollment in the College.  An ineligible student who nevertheless registers shall be dropped by the College and shall not be entitled to special consideration a plea of lack of knowledge of scholastic status.

·         ATTENDANCE:  Regular and punctual class attendance is expected at Navarro College since it is assumed that students are enrolled for the serious purpose of furthering their education.  Excessive absenteeism is defined as being equivalent to two weeks of instruction in a sixteen week semester and may result in failure or being dropped from the course. 


The attendance policy for certain courses may be more stringent than the general policy at the discretion of the instructor or as required by THECB (Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board) policy and law.  Faculty will discuss the course attendance policy at the beginning of each semester; however, students are responsible for reviewing the course syllabus and outline of each class and knowing the attendance requirements for the course.  Class rosters will be certified at 60 percent of the semester by all instructors.  Students not attending classes will be dropped.

 

Veteran’s benefits recipients must be dropped from a course for benefit purposes within three (3) weeks after their last date of attendance.  The VA benefit recipient needs to be aware that the VA may require repayment of all benefits received since the beginning of a semester for any course in which a “W” grade is received.
