10      Failure to maintain satisfactory academic progress: undergraduate coursework

(1)    If a student fails a total of 4 (or more) courses in which the student is, or has at any time been, enrolled in any undergraduate coursework award program (or programs), the student is considered to have failed to maintain a satisfactory standard of academic progress in undergraduate coursework, and is regarded as being on probation.

(2)    If subsection (1) applies to a student, the Registrar must, as soon as practicable, tell the student, in writing, that:

(a)    the student is considered to have failed to maintain a satisfactory standard of academic progress in undergraduate coursework, and is regarded as being on probation; and

(b)    the student may be excluded from undergraduate coursework award programs if the student fails a total of 8 (or more) courses in which the student is, or has at any time been, enrolled in any undergraduate coursework award program (or programs).

(3)    If a student fails a total of 8 (or more) courses in which the student is, or has at any time been, enrolled in any undergraduate coursework award program (or programs), the Delegated Authority for the undergraduate coursework award program in which the student is, or was last, enrolled may exclude the student from undergraduate coursework award programs for a specified period of no longer than 5 years.

(4)    If:

(a)    under Part 4 (Academic progress appeals and reviews), the Academic Progress Committee permits a student to continue to undertake undergraduate coursework award programs; and

(b)    the student subsequently fails a total of 2 (or more) courses in which the student is, or has at any time been, enrolled in any undergraduate coursework award program (or programs);

the Delegated Authority for the undergraduate coursework award program in which the student is, or was last, enrolled may exclude the student from undergraduate coursework award programs for a specified period of no longer than 5 years.

(5)    If the Delegated Authority excludes the student from undergraduate coursework award programs under this section, the Registrar must, as soon as practicable, tell the student, in writing:

(a)    that the student has been excluded from undergraduate coursework award programs; and

(b)    the period that the student has been excluded; and
          (c)    that the student may appeal to the Academic Progress Committee against the exclusion.
            [Note: Division 4.1 (Exclusion decisions) applies to an appeal.]

(6)    To remove any doubt, if a student fails the same course 2 or more times, each failure counts, for this section, as a failure of a course by the student.

(7)    This section is subject to section 11 (Restoration of good standing: undergraduate coursework).
