Normally, the expectation is that the student will complete at least twelve credits at another regionally-accredited college or university with no grade below a C. Students who have been dismissed and do not appeal may not enroll in any classes at The College of Idaho unless they have permission from the Financial Aid and Academic Standings Committee.
A student may submit a maximum of two petitions during their time of study at The College of Idaho.
