A student who does not meet the above requirements will be placed on academic probation for the next semester of enrollment and required to remove the deficiency prior to the beginning of the following semester. Failure to remove this deficiency during the probation semester will lead to a one semester suspension. A student who is suspended for a given semester may petition the dean to waive the suspension. The student who has been suspended and re-admitted with a waiver from the dean is required to make a minimum grade point average of 2.0 each semester or summer session following re-enrollment until such time as the minimum cumulative grade point average is at or above the minimum appropriate progression requirement. A student who is on probation at the end of the spring semester may attend summer school and work toward removing his or her academic deficiencies.

A part-time undergraduate student is defined as one who enrolls in less than twelve (12) hours during a semester. The part-time student who fails to maintain the minimum average is subject to the actions prescribed for full-time students. A part-time student who enrolls in the University after an academic suspension must achieve a minimum grade point average of 2.0 each semester.

A part-time undergraduate student enrolled in a degree program must maintain the same minimum cumulative grade point average as indicated for a full-time student.

 

Students are expected to be aware, at all times, of their academic status and to be responsible for knowing whether or not they are on academic probation. Students on academic probation shall be limited to a maximum of twelve (12) semester hours of credit in a fall or spring semester and no more than four (4) semester hours in each session of summer school.

Any student who is placed on academic suspension at the end of the spring semester may attend both sessions of summer school to remove academic deficiencies. However, if the suspended student does not raise his or her average to the required minimum, the student will remain suspended.

A student who fails to meet the minimum academic requirements after having been suspended and re-admitted is subject to permanent academic dismissal. There is an appeal procedure for academic dismissal.
