Penn College prioritizes student development and success. The ‘Student Alert’ is an important tool that the campus community can use to identify students who are facing academic or personal challenges and connect them with assistance they need.

How to Submit a Student Alert

Use the form to the right. Determine the tier or referral category that best aligns with the student’s situation. If possible, provide appropriate details on the student’s academic, personal, and emotional status. Staff will review the alert or referral and reach out to the student.

Tier 1: minor concerns, such as classroom performance and college adjustment
Tier 2: academic concerns, struggles with college transition, and moderate financial difficulties
Tier 3: ongoing academic concerns impacting performance, newer or worsening college transition concerns, and continued financial concerns
Tier 4: danger of withdrawing from college, need to connect with resources, and critical personal matters (basic needs)
Referral: goes directly to the appropriate office for direct outreach

For a more detailed explanation of tiers and referrals, view the Four Tiers of Student Alerts on MyPCT.

Each of us plays an important role is student success.

Please do not hesitate to submit an alert on behalf of a student who might benefit from support or resources. In case of an emergency, contact College Police at 570.321.5555.
