Support services include, but are not limited to, academic appeals, Academic Recovery Seminar (ARS) courses for students on probation, with approved academic suspension appeals and approved return from academic dismissal appeals, and UNCG's early alert platform. The Academic Recovery Team employs a strong team-oriented approach that prioritizes collaboration within and across teams in the department.
