Academic Sanctions Policy

Good academic standing: Cumulative GPA and semester GPA of 2.0 or above.

Academic warning: Students whose cumulative GPA is 2.0 or above but whose most recent semester GPA is below 2.0 are placed on Academic Warning.

Academic probation: Students whose cumulative GPA falls below 2.0 are placed on Academic Probation.

Extended probation: Students whose cumulative GPA is below 2.0 but whose GPA for the most recent semester was 2.3 or higher and who have passed a minimum of two-thirds of the attempted credits are placed on Extended Probation. Students remain in this status until their cumulative GPA rises to a minimum of 2.0 or until they are dismissed from the University.

Academic dismissal: Students whose cumulative GPA is below 2.0 for a second consecutive semester without meeting criteria for Extended Probation are dismissed from the University.

Appealing dismissal: Students may appeal their dismissal to the dean of their college.

Readmission after dismissal: After one semester dismissed students are eligible to apply for readmission to the University. Readmitted students are subject to the standards and restrictions specified by the college to which they are admitted. Readmitted students who fail to meet college standards may be permanently dismissed from the University.

Academic eligibility for Extracurricular involvement: Students who have been placed on Academic Probation or Extended Probation may not serve on University committees, hold leadership positions in student government and other co-curricular organizations or represent the University in intercollegiate athletics.
