Academic Warning, Probation and Suspension
The Academic Standards Procedure at WVC has been established to ensure that the college resources are used in the best interest of all current and future students. The procedure helps to ensure that students with academic difficulties are made aware of the many educational resources available to them. You are encouraged to assume responsibility for your own academic progress.
At the conclusion of each quarter, the grades of all students enrolled in that quarter will be reviewed.
Students who have attempted twelve or more credits in the quarter and whose grade point average that quarter is less than 2.0 will be notified of their situation.
a) Academic Warning - A student attempting six (6) or more graded credits will be placed on Academic Warning when his or her cumulative GPA falls below 2.0. All students on Academic Warning will receive letters from the admissions department advising them of their academic standing and the next steps to take. The transcript will be endorsed “Academic Warning.” Students will remain on Academic Warning status in subsequent quarters until their cumulative GPA is 2.0 or higher.
b) Probation - If a student on Academic Warning attempts six (6) or more graded credits for a second time, and his or her quarterly GPA falls below 2.0, they will be placed on Academic Probation. All students on Academic Probation will receive letters from the admissions department advising them of their academic standing and the next steps to take. The transcript will be endorsed “Academic Probation.” Students will remain on Academic Probation status in subsequent quarters until their cumulative GPA is 2.0 or higher.
