The purpose of the Academic Intervention and Assistance is to assist the beginning student who is experiencing academic difficulties to master nursing content and achieve success in passing nursing courses.

As stated in the welcome message, "Our faculty and staff are here to assist you in your educational journey to achieve your degree." To support student success, a set of Wrap Around Services have been implemented as outlined below.

Wrap Around Services

  1. Students will be required to take peer tutoring prior to next exam if exam average is below 78% (excluding math). Student will be asked to sign-in.
  2. Students will be required to meet with course faculty if an exam or exam average is below 78% (including math).

Students' participation in these Wrap Around Services will be considered in future readmission decisions.


Referral follow-up activities required of the student may include:

  • Peer Tutoring
  • Academic Success Center – 812-464-1743
  • Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) – 812-464-1867
  • Student study group
  • Other referrals may be made based on student's individual needs.
  • Electronic resources

It is the responsibility of the student to seek assistance from faculty when exam scores minimally meet or do not meet course requirements.
