Academic Standing - Requirements for Continued
Enrollment
The cumulative grade point average (GPA) is used to
indicate the academic standing of students at the end of
any semester or summer term and will determine their
eligibility for continued enrollment.
Good Standing
A student must maintain a C (2.00) cumulative grade
point average to be considered in good academic standing
by the University.
Academic Probation
If a student's cumulative grade point average is less
than 2.00, the student will be placed on academic
probation. Students on academic probation will not be
permitted to take more than 13 credit hours. Students on
academic probation will be assigned mid-term grades so
they are aware of possible academic difficulties early
in the semester. Students who are on academic probation
are strongly encouraged to repeat courses in which "F"
or "WF" grades were received during the next semester
(or the next time the course is offered).
Academic Dismissal
If a student is on academic probation and earns a
semester grade point average below the required minimum,
the student will be academically dismissed. The required
minimum semester GPA is based on earned hours:
-
0-31 earned hours must earn 1.71 or higher
semester GPA
-
32-62 earned hours must earn a 2.00 or higher
semester GPA
-
63 and up earned hours must earn a 2.20 or higher
semester GPA
Students who have been academically dismissed
are not allowed to continue in classes.
Students that are academically dismissed must be
re-instated by the Dean. After a first academic
dismissal, students must sit out of classes a minimum of
one academic semester. After a second academic
dismissal, students must sit out of classes a minimum of
one academic year. After the minimum suspension time,
students should submit a Petition to Return from
Academic Dismissal to Education Student Services.
No student may return after being dismissed a
third time.
