What is a mid-semester evaluation?
Mid-semester evaluations offer a valuable opportunity for faculty to provide feedback regarding individual student performance in their courses. Faculty use the Mid-semester Evaluation to call attention to a student who is having academic difficulty so that the student can take steps to improve. Faculty may also use the forms to encourage a student who has been working hard in a class, or to praise a student who has shown exceptional progress in a course. If a student receives a mid-semester evaluation, it is important that she or he contact the faculty and her/his advisor to establish a plan for the remainder of the semester.
