Students are expected to maintain a satisfactory grade point average for credits attempted. A minimum quarterly GPA of 2.0 must be maintained to be in good standing. Academic deficiency is defined as failure to maintain the minimum quarterly grade point average requirement of 2.0. If a student does not meet this requirement, the following process will apply:

  • After the first quarter in which a student is academically deficient, he or she will be placed on academic warning.
  • After the second consecutive quarter in which a student is academically deficient, the student will be placed on academic probation.
  • After three consecutive quarters of academic deficiency, the student will be dismissed from the college.

A student may appeal an Academic Dismissal by completing the appeal process. If the appeal is implemented, the student would be able to enroll into 10 credits or less for the following two quarters.
