If a student's cumulative GPA at the end of any semester is less than the grade point average required as listed above, the student is placed on academic probation.

1. Once placed on probation at the end of a fall or spring term, a student must show satisfactory academic improvement by the end of the next major semester (excluding Maymester and summer sessions), regardless of the number of credits earned or attempted, or the student will be subject to dismissal. Generally, satisfactory academic improvement is defined as continuous, significant improvement in GPA earned at the end of each semester during the probationary period (15 credit hours excluding EDLS 100). The improvement must be great enough so that the student makes progress toward achieving academic good standing.

2. Make up the GPA deficiency in the next 15 credits attempted (It is recommended that not all 15 credits be attempted together.)

3. Enroll in EDLS 100 Learning Strategies during the next fall or spring semester. EDLS 100 is not counted toward the 15 credits above.

If, at the end of the fall or spring semester during or after which the 15th credit hour is completed, the student's cumulative GPA is not at or above the grade point average required, the student will be subject to dismissal for academic deficiency.
