What are the different tiers of academic discipline? Who helps me? How do I get off of Academic Warning?
Students must maintain a specific GPA of 2.0 or better to remain in good academic standards with the University. Students who fail to meet this standard are placed on low academic status.
Categories of Low Academic Status:
- 1. Warning – If a student’s GPA falls below 2.0, they will be placed on warning and must register through an advisor.
- 2. Conditional Enrollment – If a student is on warning and does not achieve either a current or cumulative GPA over 2.0, they will be placed on conditional enrollment and must register through the Director of Advisement with a contract.
- 3. Suspension – If a student does not earn a 2.0 in either their cumulative or current GPA the semester following being placed on conditional enrollment, or if they do not fulfill their conditional enrollment contract, they will be suspended. This means they will not be allowed to register for at least one regular (fall or spring) semester.
