PROBATION
A student earning a cumulative grade point average below a 2.0 at the end of a term shall be placed on academic probation. A student shall be removed from academic probation by earning at least a 2.0 cumulative grade point average.
SUSPENSION
If a student is placed on academic probation for two consecutive terms (which is noted on the transcript as subject to dismissal the second time) and does not earn either a cumulative GPA or a term GPA of at least a 2.0 in the third term, the student shall be academically suspended. Non-enrollment has no effect on probation status. The president (or designee) may grant an exception based upon an individual's case.
REINSTATEMENT
A student who has been academically suspended only one time may be reinstated after remaining out of the college for at least one 16-week semester and providing evidence of ability to perform at the level required. A student who has been academically suspended will, upon reinstatement, be placed on academic probation II and be subject to academic suspension 2 status, if the student has failed to earn a current term GPA of 2.0 during the first term of reinstatement. Upon a second suspension, a student may be reinstated by the president (or designee) after remaining out of the college for at least two 16-week semesters and providing evidence of ability to perform at the level required.
Students granted permission to return/enroll following a suspension will be directed to schedule their advising appointment with a specific/designated reinstatement advisor.
To be Reinstated:
If you are on academic suspension, you must remain out of college for at least one 16-week semester and provide evidence of ability to perform at the level required. However, you may apply for immediate reinstatement by completing the following steps:
- Fill out the Academic Reinstatement Appeal Form
- Meet with a designated college official to review your case.
- Provide evidence of your ability to perform at the level required.
- Enroll in a GEN 102 "Strategies for Academic Success" class (required for reinstatement).
After a thorough review, the designated college official will inform you of the decision.
