Hudson Valley Community College’s College Success Referral System (CSRS) is open for Spring 2015! The process in WIReD to identify students to receive College Success Referrals, also known as the Faculty Feedback Form, opened for use for the Spring semester on Tuesday, Jan. 20.
Instructions for using the College Success Referral System are available here: www.hvcc.edu/issr/csrs.html.
Hudson Valley Community College has introduced an enhanced College Success Referral System based on the institution’s commitment to developing a systemic and integrated approach to student retention. The college recognizes that early detection of academic difficulties will increase the college’s ability to offer the student access to the appropriate support systems. To this end, the CSRS recognizes the importance of:
- easing the new student’s transition into the college environment
- early systematic identification of those students who may be academically at risk
- early identification of students who may be having difficulties in the classroom
- establishing a common communication link between students and their instructors, advisors, instructional support faculty, and department chairperson
The College Success Referral System is designed to institutionally support the faculty and academic departments in the identification of and communication with students who are having difficulty in the classroom or with the college experience.
Although the identification process will be available throughout most of the semester, early intervention is key with these students so they can take the steps necessary to succeed before their first exams.
