Academic Probation
Students whose cumulative grade point average falls below 2.0 (C average) will be placed on probation. Students on academic probation who have the following grade point average or above may participate in only one extracurricular activity at any one time:
Freshman (up to 29 hours) 1.70 GPA
Sophomore (30-59 hours) 1.80 GPA
Junior (60-89 hours) 1.90 GPA
Senior (90 or more hours) 2.00 GPA
Students below these minimum GPAs may not participate in any extracurricular activities. All probationary students must attend two weekly appointments with a tutor through Academic Mentoring Services (located in the Ally Center), the college's academic assistance program. In addition, they must sign-up for two weekly study halls. Study halls are offered throughout the day as well as the evening. Hours are chosen at the convenience of the student. The specific schedule for AMS is posted on campus at the beginning of each semester. The Veterans Administration will be notified if a student receiving VA benefits does not meet the academic progress requirements after serving a probationary period of two semesters.
Probation students who miss 20% or more of their required tutoring appointments and/or study halls in the Ally Center during any one term will receive notification of academic dismissal at the end of that term.
