Probation Notification Letter Dear XXXX, We are committed to the academic success of all of our undergraduates. We also recognize that success is not always achieved along a predictable path. Placement on academic Probation is a part of the University's commitment to offer students support for -and guidance through- whatever difficulties they may have experienced. To this end, you must meet as soon as possible, but not later than May 10, 2013 with an Academic Advisor from the Office of Undergraduate Advising and Research (UAR) to discuss your situation and develop a plan that will ensure your continued academic success. A hold has been placed on your registration effective immediately which may be released only after you have met with the UAR Advisor.

Dear XXXX,   We are committed to the academic success of each of our undergraduates. We also understand that success is not always achieved in a predictable path. There are many reasons students enter the academic probation process. These reasons can include personal, financial, health, family, or other issues. Our goal is to help you identify the factors that are relevant to you and to help you address them. You should also know that you are not alone in experiencing these difficulties. Many students enter and participate in the probation process each year, and by working with their advisors, many leave the process and continue a successful career at [School]. For descriptions of the experiences of some past students who have gone through this process, please see the attached document, “Students’ Perspectives on the Probation Process.”

Dear [name], After reviewing your academic record, I write to advise you that you have not met the minimum requirements for satisfactory academic progress set forth by the Faculty Senate. As a result, you will be placed on academic Probation effective next term. Let me make very clear that Probation at [School] is a warning, nothing more, and will not appear on your official transcript. Its purpose is to alert you to academic difficulties in time to identify those areas where you may be experiencing problems and determine how best to address them. … Placement on academic Probation is a part of the University's commitment to offer students support for—and guidance through—whatever difficulties they may have experienced. To this end, you must meet as soon as possible, but not later than [date] with an Academic Advisor to discuss your situation…   

Survey: Students said... •  I felt like a failure when I got my probation. •  I felt incredibly alone. No one seems to struggle, or at

least not to that degree….I felt like I couldn't tell anyone…

•  Being on probation sucked. I lied so many times….For

some time after getting the letter, I felt that I didn't belong. I had already felt that way coming in, but that letter seemed to confirm that. For a minute I wanted to dropout…

•  Being put on probation was hell.

Survey: Students said...

Survey: Open-ended responses

•  51% mentioned the letter � (of these, 3% said the letter was helpful) �

•  43% explicitly described probation as a threat to belonging �

•  34% mentioned the stigma of probation �

Intervention: Revise the letter

•  Frame probation as process not a label –  Placement on academic Probation… –  The process for academic probation…�

•  Communicate “you’re not the only one”

–  You should also know that you are not alone in experiencing these difficulties.

•  Acknowledge many reasons –  Whatever difficulties –  There are many reasons students enter the academic probation process. These

reasons can include personal, financial, health, family, or other issues.

•  Offer hope for returning to good standing –  By working with their advisors, many [students on probation] leave the process and

continue a successful career at [School].
