The Admissions and Academic Progress Committee reviews the academic status of students at the end of the fall and spring semesters. A student who receives two or more grades of “F” or whose cumulative grade point average falls below 2.0 in any semester is placed on academic probation. Probationary students may be required to participate in a university skills program, may be limited in the number of hours in which they may enroll while on probation, and/or given other conditions (e.g., grade require- ments to be met, required to meet with an identified person). The Committee on Academic Progress may remove a student from probationary status when the  student  has  completed  at  least  12  credit  hours  while  on  probation,  has  shown  progress toward a degree and has raised the cumulative grade point average to at least 2.0. Failure to meet the conditions may result in dismissal from the University. The probationary period may be extended beyond 12 credit hours with the approval of the committee. Dismissal from the University without a probationary period is possible if the student was admitted on a provisional status, has a cumulative grade point average below 1.6 or is classified as a senior.
