The academic records of all enrolled undergraduate students are reviewed at the end
of each semester and summer term. The University reserves the right to dismiss any
student whose cumulative grade point average (GPA) falls below 2.0. Any continued
student whose cumulative GPA is less than 2.0 will be placed on academic probation.
Second-semester first year students who have a GPA below 2.0 and who have been allowed
to continue for the spring semester must enroll and attend Rebound, a non-credit bearing
course which focuses on academic recovery in their spring semester.
A student on probation must achieve a cumulative GPA of 2.0 within the next term of
enrollment at the University. If, during the probationary period, the 2.0 cumulative
GPA is approached and their term GPA has improved, they will remain on academic probation.
If their term GPA does not improve and their cumulative GPA is under a 2.0, that student
may be dismissed or placed on strict academic probation for one semester. A student
who has not reached the 2.0 GPA standard at the end of the strict probation period
is subject to the dismissal policies of the University. (See section on academic dismissals.) Any student on probation may be required to carry a reduced course load. Probationary
status is removed at the end of any grading period, provided the student has achieved
a 2.0 cumulative GPA.
