Students placed on Academic Notice ll are required to schedule a meeting
with their academic advisor to re-evaluate and to revise the student’s existing
academic plan. Students placed on Academic Notice II will be restricted to
enrolling in no more than 12 credit hours per semester. A registration restriction
will be placed on the student’s account so that additional courses may not be
added. Students on Academic Notice II must complete the semester with a
2.2 GPA and achieve a 75% semester completion rate to remain on Academic
Notice II. Students on Academic Notice II and who meet the minimum GPA and
completion requirements will be permitted to enroll in the upcoming semester
even if the student’s cumulative GPA and cumulative completion rates remain
below the required levels.
The performance of students placed on Academic Notice II will be reviewed by
the committee at the conclusion of each semester. Students whose performance
failed to improve will be placed on Academic Separation. In situations of
extenuating circumstances, the review committee may offer an extension of
Academic Notice II, which would allow the student to enroll in future classes.
However, these options will be reserved for students who have demonstrated
significant improvement in their academic performance and who provide
appropriate supporting documentation.
ACADEMIC SEPARATION
Students placed on Academic Separation will be suspended from the College for
one semester. A registration restriction will be placed on the student’s account
to prevent any attempt to enroll while on Academic Separation. Students who
are placed on Academic Separation at the end of the spring semester, will be
suspended for both the upcoming summer and fall semesters.
If there are extenuating circumstances, a student may appeal the Academic
Separation decision. The student may complete the Academic Separation Appeal
Form to be considered for re-instatement by the committee.
At the conclusion of the separation period, students may complete an appeal for
re-enrollment privileges. Students who choose to appeal must meet with their
academic advisor in order to review and revise his/her academic plan and to
complete the Academic Separation Appeal Form (ASAF). The student’s completed
ASAF must include a detailed explanation of the changes that the student plans to
make in order to satisfy the Standards of Academic Progress. This appeal will be
submitted to the Student Services faculty committee for consideration.
If the ASAF appeal is granted, the student will be placed on Academic Notice II
and must satisfy the requirements of that policy for the privilege of continued
enrollment.
However if the student’s appeal is denied, he/she may re-appeal if additional
supporting documentation is available, if extenuating circumstances were a factor
or after an appropriate time frame has passed as determined by the Student
Services faculty committee.
