Graduate students are required to maintain a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 (out of a possible 4.0 points). Any admitted student whose cumulative grade-point average has fallen below 3.0 will be notified, in writing, of academic probation by the respective graduate program. Probationary status will be removed when the student's cumulative grade-point average reaches or exceeds 3.0.
A student whose cumulative grade-point average remains below 3.0 for a second term is subject to dismissal from the program by the respective dean, associate dean or graduate program director. Individual schools reserve the right to exercise specific dismissal policies.
