Financial Risk Alerts

The Gold Carpet Orientation activity is a modified orientation concept delivered during the weekday.  Through Gold Carpet Orientation, new Freshmen experience orientation in small groups of 20 going through 5-6 stations directly related to onboarding and first year retention, to include:  

Revision and updating of the (out-of-class) videos and materials that support students completing an Academic Improvement Plan. The purpose of the revision is to better connect and engage students who are at academic risk.

Goal: Increase retention in the second to third year through targeted campus engagement.

Use predictive analytics and a system of more than 800 alerts to track all undergraduates daily, identify at-risk behaviors, and have advisors respond to alerts by intervening in a timely fashion to get students back on track.

Intrusive Financial Aid Advising:  Identify and implement initiatives to address financial needs of students from these populations in a timely fashion. All students will receive the financial literacy courses during their first semester at FVSU

Provide proactive, intrusive academic advising to keep students on track to graduate through: Reducing Errors in Course Selection; Reducing Major/Program of Study Changes; Improving Academic Performance; Sustaining SAP Requirements and Retaining Financial Aid Funding; and Providing Early Academic Support for Students
