The university reserves the right to deny further attendance to a student who lacks the personal qualities, professional characteristics, or scholastic attainments essential for success. Such a student desiring to re-enroll will supply the university with evidence that the difficulties have been corrected.

In addition to the completion of prescribed courses, the student must meet established scholarship standards for continuation in the university.

A student is placed on academic probation whenever their semester grade point average is less than 2.0. A student will be removed from academic probation whenever their semester grade point average reaches or exceeds 2.0 and their cumulative grade point average is at least a 2.0.

A student on academic probation who does not achieve a 2.0 semester grade point average the semester following academic probation and does not meet the minimum cumulative average listed below will be academically suspended. The calculation of hours attempted will include grades A, B, C, D, F, and WF.

Semester Hours Attempted	Minimum Cumulative GPA
1 - 30	1.70
31 - 59	1.85
60 or more	2.00

A student on suspension from the University may apply for readmission under the Schedule of Readmission Following Academic Suspension.  Credit earned at another institution while on academic suspension will not transfer back to the university and will not count toward a degree at the university. 

Schedule of Readmission Following Suspension

First Suspension:  Students who are on first academic suspension may choose automatic readmission after one academic semester on suspension and approval of their Application for Readmission or they may petition for immediate conditional readmission through the Office of the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies.  If granted immediate readmission, the student is considered “on suspension with conditional enrollment.”  Contact Undergraduate Studies for more information.

Students placed on first academic suspension following the spring semester remain eligible for summer enrollment at the university.  Academic performance during the summer will be considered in determining a student’s cumulative grade point average which may affect a student’s suspension status.

Second Suspension:  Students who are on second suspension will be granted automatic readmission after one calendar year on suspension and approval of their Application for Readmission.

Third Suspension:  Students on third suspension are subject to academic dismissal from the University for an indefinite period of time.
