Academic Catalog

Academic Warning/Probation/Suspension - Undergraduate Students

Warning

Any student who fails to earn at least a 2.00 grade point average for the semester will receive notice of academic warning. Academic warning is an official notice that the work for that semester was below the 2.00 minimum cumulative GPA required for graduation.

Probation

A student whose cumulative GPA falls below 2.00 will be placed on academic probation.

Suspension

If probationary status continues for more than one semester or if the GPA for a semester falls significantly below the corresponding GPA of 2.00, the student will be subject to academic suspension.

Suspensions, unlike Academic Dismissals, carry enabling provisions which, at the student’s initiative, allow the suspension to be formally reconsidered and imply the possibility of the resumption of study. A suspended student may not apply for readmission to the University for at least one academic year.

Should the GPA of a suspended student who has been authorized to resume study fall below 2.00, this will result in Academic Dismissal rather than Academic Suspension.
