ACADEMIC PROBATION

 

The college recognizes three categories of academic standing: Good Standing, Academic Probation, and Academic Suspension. Each student’s academic standing will be determined by academic performance as reflected in the institutional grade point average, calculated each semester.

 

A student is required to maintain a minimum institutional grade point average (IGPA) to remain in good academic standing. Minimum standards are related to total credit hours attempted by the student. These minimum standards are:

 

Total Hours Attempted

Minimum Cumulative IGPA

 

 

 0-12

1.5

 

 

13-24

1.6

 

 

25-36

1.7

 

 

37-48

1.8

 

 

49-60

1.9

 

 

60+

2.0

 

A student with a cumulative IGPA below the minimum standard will be placed on Academic Probation. A student on Academic Probation is restricted to enrollment in a maximum of 14 semester hours and is required to seek assistance through the Academic Intervention Management Program (AIM). Students on Academic Probation may be in jeopardy of losing financial aid.
