The Warning Card: Notification to Student of Unsatisfactory Progress
Revised November 2009
A warning card is issued for any nursing student who is doing less than satisfactory work in a School of Nursing course, or who is not meeting essential qualifications for continuance in the program of study. A warning card must be used for ANY student who is in danger of failing or who has less than a 2.0 grade (undergraduate students) or 2.7 grade (graduate students) at mid quarter.
The instructor meets with the student to discuss the student's progress and any concerns, and prepares a memo outlining expectations and conditions the student must meet to complete the quarter successfully.
After the discussion, the student is asked to sign the card. Student signature indicates that that the student has seen the card and is aware of the concerns. Student signature does not necessarily indicate agreement.
The signed warning card is sent to Academic Services where it is placed in the student's file. All warning cards are removed at the time of graduation and do not become part of the permanent file.
BSN students are encouraged to schedule an appointment with the Undergraduate Advisor to discuss the situation. Graduate students may schedule an appointment with the Assistant Dean. All students are eligible to receive support through Academic Services and/or other sources.
