No Continued on probation Suspended for Low Scholarship A student on academic probation who fails to meet the terms of probation will be suspended and will be required to withdraw from UMC for one academic term on the first incidence of suspension and one calendar year on the second suspension. Appeals for readmission after a suspension notice has been sent to students must be accompanied by evidence 1 that factors contributing to the difficulty have been altered and that there is every reason to assume successful continuation of studies. On the first occasion of an academic suspension, students will be readmitted if they agree to the terms and conditions of the academic contract. Students may NOT continue on academic contract for two consecutive semesters. Suspended students who are readmitted after the required period of non-enrollment are readmitted on academic probation.
Continued enrollment depends on satisfactorily completing probation requirements.
