Welcome to Academic Advising
Academic advising plays the vital role of keeping students informed, well-balanced and on-track to graduate. Every student is assigned either a professional academic advisor and/or a faculty academic advisor to discuss academic expectations, degree requirements and career aspirations.
To find your academic advisor, log into your WeevilNet account. Your academic advisor information should appear in the bottom right corner. If you are assigned two academic advisors, try to visit with your professional academic advisor before meeting with your faculty academic advisor. PT电子’s professional advising staff members are listed below in the contact section.

PT电子 Academic Alert
What is PT电子’s Academic Alert System?
PT电子 is committed to the retention and graduation of its students by providing a learning environment that is conducive to student success. The Academic Alert System has been put in place to help ensure that every student is able to take full advantage of the educational opportunities available.
The goal of the Academic Alert System is to put students in contact with appropriate campus resources as early as possible. Contacting students early greatly increases their chances for success in class and college as a whole.
Faculty and staff members contribute directly to the Academic Alert System’s success by issuing alerts on students who are doing poorly in their academic work, are chronically absent from class or are having difficulty adjusting to campus life. Faculty and staff members may also issue alerts on students who are having personal or financial issues that are making it difficult for them to be successful.
The Process
Academic Alerts are issued via Maxient.
On the Academic Alert form, faculty or staff will be asked to check one or more of the following reasons for issuing an alert:
- Academic Skills Deficient
- Attendance Concerns
- Financial Concerns
- Poor Academic Performance
- Missing Required Textbook/Supplementary Material
- Other (Non Health/Non Mental Health Related Concerns)
Faculty or staff will also select a level of urgency:
- Normal
- High
- Critical
After an alert is issued, it is assigned to a professional academic advisor. The faculty
or staff member issuing the alert will receive notification when an alert is closed.
Heath or mental health-related concerns should be submitted via the UBIT Person of
Concern form.
For more information on the Academic Alert System, please contact Carrie Johnson at
johnsonc@tiantianmai.net or (870) 460-1633.
Academic Recovery Program
The Academic Recovery Program is designed to equip students who have experienced academic difficulty with the information and tools they need to return to good academic standing. If you have been placed on academic suspension, conditional academic standing, residential denial or financial aid denial, we can help you design a plan to get back on track.
The academic recovery process is guided by professional academic advisors. Students are assigned to work one-on-one with a professional advisor through the academic recovery process. Professional academic advisors help by:
- Providing an accurate assessment of your current academic situation.
- Offering you guidance in developing a personally relevant academic plan.
- Connecting you to other available campus resources.
Students participating in academic recovery are typically expected to:
- Attend all scheduled classes.
- Check PT电子 email and Blackboard frequently.
- Develop an academic success plan that will guide goal setting and track goal attainment.
- Meet with a professional academic advisor several times throughout the semester to discuss progress and challenges.
- Attend academic skills development workshops.
- Complete other tasks identified as necessary by the recovery plan.
Once a student returns to good academic standing (term and cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher), he/she is typically not required to continue in the academic recovery program. However, a student may participate on a voluntary basis if he/she desires additional assistance in achieving his/her academic goals.
While the Academic Recovery Program is designed to help you succeed, you must remember that you are solely responsible for your success or failure. Success in this program requires your dedication to following direction and hard work inside and outside of the classroom. Participation in this program does not guarantee financial aid reinstatement.
For more information about PT电子's Academic Recovery Program, please contact Carrie Johnson at johnsonc@tiantianmai.net or (870) 460-1633.
