Alerts in CRM Advise serve as an early notification system to identify students who may need support. They allow faculty, staff, and students to raise concerns related to academic progress, engagement, wellness, financial challenges, or other barriers to success. Alerts centralize these concerns within the student’s full record, ensuring visibility across appropriate support teams and promoting coordinated intervention.

Importance of Timely Alert Management

Managing alerts promptly is critical to student retention and success. Timely review and follow-up:

• Enables early intervention before issues escalate.
• Demonstrates institutional care and responsiveness.
• Improves communication and coordination among support offices.
• Helps remove barriers that may impact persistence.
• Maintains accurate documentation within the student’s record.
