Academic Dismissal

A student on Academic Notice or Extended Academic Notice whose cumulative grade point average continues to fall below 2.0 may be dismissed from the University. Students who are academically dismissed from the University and whose cumulative GPA is at least 1.0 may appeal this decision to their respective school/college Academic Standing Committee. The guidelines for the appeal submission will be provided to the student, along with the Academic Dismissal Letter. The decision of the Academic Standing Committee is final.

Course registration for those students whose appeal is granted will remain active. All registrations will be canceled for all future semesters for students whose appeal is denied or who did not submit an appeal.

Academic dismissal does not suspend a student’s responsibility to meet prior course commitments. All incomplete (“I) grades will convert to “F” grades unless attended to within one academic year.

A student who has been academically dismissed and wishes to return to the University must appeal to the Academic Standing Committee. Specific details of this process for returning to the University can be found in the academic catalog.
