At the end of the sophomore year and for subsequent program years,the student must also have a cumulative average of 2.0 in the nursing major. Failure to meet these criteria will result in academic probation. After the completion of three semesters, students with a GPA of less than 2.0 in nursing major courses will be placed on academic probation. All students placed on academic probation must meet with their academic advisors and an individualized program plan will be developed and filed in the Dean s office. If at the completion of two subsequent semesters students do not have an overall GPA of 2.0 in the nursing major,they will be subject to academic disqualification from the nursing major.
Students have a right to appeal grades.
Please refer to the grade appeal policy in the academic regulations section of the catalog. Enrollment in each required NUR course can only be approved on completion of the NUR prerequisites to that course. Within a given academic year,the student may not have completed all non-nursing prerequisites for Spring semester courses. However, before the student can progress to the required NUR course for the next program year, both nursing and non-nursing prerequisites must have been completed. Early registration for a required NUR course does not alter these prerequisites for progression.
