The standards used by the Academic Standing Committee in their deliberations adhere to the guidelines established in this catalog. More specific standards may be found in the Student Handbook. Probation and Suspension Probation is a trial period normally extending for one semester, but renewable or removable upon recommendation by the Academic Standing Committee. Academic probation is a warning that a student is in academic difficulty and is in danger of being placed on academic suspension. Students may be placed on academic probation when their grade point average is such that action by the Academic Standing Committee is required.
Academic suspension occurs when a person is terminated as a matriculated student in any curriculum.
The suspended student may reapply for admission to the program after one full semester. Further, the suspended student, prior to applying for readmission, must show evidence of having successfully completed, with a C or better, at least two 3-credit courses as a nonmatriculated student. A student officer who is placed on probation may continue to hold that office for the current semester. If such probation continues after this semester, the office must be vacated and an election held to fill the vacancy. Withdrawal and Readmission A student who finds it necessary to withdraw from the College is required to complete and file an official withdrawal form with the Registrar.
