Administrative Policies

Undergraduate and Post-baccalaureate Students. In addition to the completion of prescribed courses, students must meet established scholarship standards in order to continue in the university.

A student will be placed on academic probation whenever the semester grade point average is less than 2.000.

A student will be removed from academic probation whenever the semester grade point average equals or exceeds 2.000 and the cumulative grade point average equals or exceeds 2.000.

A student on academic probation who does not achieve a 2.000 semester grade point average and does not meet the minimum cumulative average listed below will be academically suspended.

SEM HRS ATTEMPTED MINIMUM CUMULATIVE G.P.A.

1 - 30 1.70

31 - 59 1.85

60 OR MORE 2.00

The calculation of hours attempted will include grades A, B, C, D, F, and WF.

A first suspension will be for one semester.

A second suspension will be for one calendar year.

A third suspension will be academic dismissal, for an indefinite period of time.

All standards with respect to retention are binding and are not, therefore, subject to appeal.
