Progress Reports

What is a Progress Report?

A Progress Report is an early intervention tool that the University of Houston-Victoria uses to identify & contact students that exhibit behaviors or habits that inhibit their success in the classroom. 

It is our belief that early intervention allows time & opportunity for students to make necessary adjustments to their academic performance through the use of academic services/resources, communication with faculty, & support from their Success Coach/Adviser.

Progress Reports come from the faculty & are processed by the Student's Advisors or Coaches.  Faculty members are encouraged to submit Progress Reports when students display academic, social, or emotional difficulties, such as:

• Failure to complete & turn in assignments
• Failure to read & understand assigned readings
• Frequent absences (or stop attending)
• Poor participation in discussions
• Poor study skills
• Poor understanding of course content
• Poor writing skills
• Weak performance on major exams & assignments
• Weak performance on quizzes &/or homework
• General concerns

Progress Reports are not meant to stop communication between professor and students.
