Academic Status Reports (ASRs) are part of a university-wide student support system that provides students early, personalized feedback about their class progress and alerts academic advisors when needed. Faculty should submit early ASRs for any students who are not performing satisfactorily due to missing classes, missing assignments/quizzes, or poor work quality. Faculty can also submit positive ASRs for students who are progressing well in the class. Instructors teaching 100 and 200-level courses are expected to generate ASRs early and often. Students are notified weekly through My ASU and via system-generated emails when they receive an ASR.
NOTE: Faculty should submit an ASR for any student who does not attend class sessions or submit assignments during the first two weeks of the session.
We strongly recommend that faculty: 1) include a statement about ASRs in their syllabus, 2) post a class announcement prior to the first ASR submissions, 3) send follow-up messaging to students who are having difficulty in the class. Templates for syllabus, announcements, and emails are provided below.
