A student’s cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) is used to evaluate his/her academic progress. Students are considered to be making satisfactory progress toward program completion if a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 is maintained.
1. A student whose GPA falls below minimum progress will be placed on probation for the next semester.
2. If significant progress has been demonstrated, but the student has not quite attained a minimum of a 2.0 cumulative GPA, a second semester on probation may be granted. The student must petition the Vice President of Student Affairs to request an additional semester on probation.
3. If the 2.0 minimum has not been achieved after a second semester on probation, the student will be suspended from the College. Petition for reinstatement can be made after one semester has expired. During suspension, the student will be encouraged to enroll in developmental courses to assist him/her in required studies upon reinstatement.
