Academic Warning
When students earn below the minimum cumulative GPA, they are placed on "Academic Warning" for the semester enrolled. The students, with the assistance of their advisor, will reassess course load (a 13-15 credit hour maximum recommendation) and academic goals for the next term of enrollment.
Academic Probation I
When students earn below the minimum cumulative GPA for the second consecutive semester, they are considered on "Academic Probation I" and are no longer eligible for financial aid or D.V.A. benefits for the next term of enrollment. Students, with the assistance of their advisor, will develop a plan to reach a satisfactory GPA. This plan may consider, among other options, a referral to a counselor for a change of major/program. If full-time students earn a semester GPA of 3.0 or better for the semester in which they are on Academic Probation I but do not yet meet the required cumulative GPA in the Satisfactory Academic Progress Scale, they remain on Academic Probation I.
Academic Probation II
When students earn below the minimum required cumulative GPA for three consecutive semesters, then they are on "Academic Probation II." In addition to receiving no financial aid or D.V.A. benefits, they are no longer considered regular students and must adhere to the following during the next term of enrollment:
- Re-register (If pre-registered, registration is nullified.)
- Take no more than six credit hours
Removal from Unsatisfactory Academic Progress Status
Once students earn the required cumulative GPA, they will be removed from unsatisfactory academic progress status. However, academic warning and academic probation statements are a part of students' permanent records.
