AT-Risk Professional-Technical Admitted Students

Who Are Professional-Technical At-Risk Students?

These students are identified as more at-risk than regularly admitted technical students. They are identified as freshmen applicants who do not qualify for regular admission due to one or more of the following: 

· < 2.0 High school transcript, high school core or college cumulative gpa;

· Test into one or more developmental courses based upon COMPASS test scores;

· Missing one or more high school courses required for college entrance into technical program;

· Completed a GED since 1997 with at least a 500/50 score;

· They have graduated from a non-accredited high school or home school.

 How Can A Professional-Technical Advisor Identify Their AT-Risk Advisees?  

There is a tool in WarriorWeb for this purpose! In your Faculty account, go to Advising Tools, then select Acceptance Status. This tool will provide you with the student’s acceptance status and the portion of the admission letter which refers to this status. The following admission statuses indicate at-risk students:

· ADTA—Regular Technical Admitted At-Risk (ADTT– Tentative)

· ADCO—Conditional (ADCT—Conditional Tentative)

· ADRP—Probational (ADRT—Probation Tentative)

· ADRW—Restricted Warning (same as ADRP but for returning students)

 What Do Professional-Technical At-Risk Students Need to Know?

At-Risk Technical Students must:

· Meet with a Professional-Technical Counselor prior to signing up for a STAR session;

· Complete an Intake Session and Individualized Study Plan;

· Meet periodically with the Professional-Technical Counselor;

· Complete required developmental courses; and

· Complete 12 college-level credits with at least a 2.0 Cum GPA.
