Academic Probation and Suspension
The following leads to academic probation:
- A cumulative GPA of less than 3.0
- An “F” or “FA” grade in a credit course
The Academic Review Committee will meet after each block (7 weeks) to review academic records. For a first occurrence, a student with a cumulative GPA below 3.0 will be placed on academic probation. A second occurrence of unsatisfactory academic progress may result in continued probation, academic suspension, or permanent suspension from the institution.
A graduate student on probation is limited to a maximum of 9 credit hours per semester (less if recommended by the Academic Review Committee). Students placed on probation must contact their designated Program Chair or advisor for consultation.
A suspended student may be reinstated on probationary status by presenting a written appeal to the Academic Review Committee chairperson. A suspended student must wait one full semester after the suspension was issued before submitting an appeal to the Academic Review Committee Chairperson.
