The academic records of students who earned a cumulative grade point average below 2.0 are reviewed at the end of the fall, spring, and summer terms. A determination is made if the student is dismissed or allowed to continue for another semester on strict academic probation. Each dismissed student will receive official notification via U.S. mail and through their SXU email account. All future registrations will be removed and/or blocked. Academic dismissal will be noted on the student's official transcript and will be part of the student's record.
A dismissed student may appeal to the dismissal committee during the period specified in the dismissal letter. The appeal, stating the reasons for which the student considers the review justified, must be submitted via SXU email to the address provided by the specified deadline. The development of an academic plan is required as part of the dismissal appeal process. The appeal will be reviewed by the dismissal committee. If the appeal is granted, notice will include the terms and conditions of continued study, and the student's status will be changed to strict academic probation. If the appeal is not granted, notice will include recommendations if the student plans to apply for readmission at a later date.
