Warning 812: Exited Student Found With Subsequent Enrollment In Current Year
A student that was reported by your district as having an Exit Withdraw code of 202 “Dropout”, 205 “Not Enrolled Eligible to Return”, or 209 “Withdrawal From Mandatory Attendance” was found to have an enrollment record (in either your district or another) with an entry date later in this school year than the exit date. Please verify if the student’s exit date or code should be updated to reflect this, though the exit that was reported may be accurate if indicating that the student left school and has rejoined.

2024-2025 ADVISER Data Elements Document Updated – 211 Alternative Diploma Exit Code Removed
Public Districts
A revised 2024-2025 ADVISER Data Elements document (v9.1) is now available on the ADVISER Resources webpage. The document has been updated with additional guidance – please refer to Appendix A for the list of changes.
One major change that will affect ADVISER data submissions is the removal of the 211 enrollment exit withdraw code “Completer with an Alternative/Modified Diploma” effective immediately. (Additional guidance clarifying the codes used for exiting Special Education students has also recently been published in this SOS Newsletter.)
Any students who already have a 211 exit withdraw code reported in 2024-2025 will have their exit code removed from ADVISER by the NDE. This will trigger validation error #713: “Exit Date is Present Without Exit Code”. For Districts affected, please update these students’ data before the 6/15/2025 audit window.
