Student Academic Services
Early Spartan Success Initiative (ESSI)
The Early Spartan Success Initiative is designed to help students be successful by identifying and assisting students whose persistence and success may be negatively affected by academic or non-academic factors.
This form can be used to alert Student Academic Services and the Dean of Students Office, a partner in this initiative. We recommend a referral when concern for a student's academic progress arises or when a student is exhibiting behaviors that may lead to academic difficulty. Recommended reporting times are:
• Anytime between the student's arrival to campus and the second week of class
• After the first grade is assigned (preferably, within the first 2-3 weeks)
• At mid-term or before the scheduled advising and registration period begins
• Prior to the deadline to withdraw without being academically penalized
• Anytime there is a concern
Once you have submitted this form, a representative from Student Academic Services will contact the student. We will then refer the student to an appropriate campus resource, if needed. You will be notified via email regarding our follow up with your student.
