Grades of Withdrawal (W) or Incomplete

completion. Financial Aid awards for the
next semester will not be certifed until
the Incomplete has been changed to a fnal
grade and the student’s academic progress
and program pursuit can be measured.
When the requirements of good academic
standing are not met, the student will be
notifed by the Vice President and Dean of
Academic Affairs and lose eligibility for
all fnancial aid, including student loans.
ProBAtion
In some instances the college may defne a
student as being “on academic probation.”
Academic probation, including any
accompanying constraints on a student’s
activities (e.g. varsity sports, student
senate), is intended as an educational tool
to encourage greater effort by a student
who appears to be having diffculty
meeting certain academic standards. Being
on academic probation may prevent a
student from registering for academic
38
course work as a matriculated student if
certain conditions are not met.
Matriculated students placed on probation
will generally not be allowed to register
for more than 13 semester hours.
Transitional skills course work will be
included in the calculation of the grade
point average when determining probation
status.
dismissAL
(Unsatisfactory Academic Progress)
Matriculated students are recommended
for dismissal when, in the opinion of
the college, they fail to demonstrate the
ability and interest required for successful
completion of a given program, and are
not considered to be in good academic
standing. Transitional skills course work
will be included in the calculation of the
grade point average when determining
dismissal status.
A dismissed student will lose matriculated
status and has the following options:
1. Continue as a part-time, nonmatriculated
student until the criteria
for satisfactory progress and pursuit of
program are met with a minimum of 6
credit hours, and then seek readmission.
2. Appeal the dismissal. If the dismissal
is upheld, the student cannot be
considered for readmission until
the criteria for satisfactory progress
and pursuit of program are met, as
described in paragraph 1, above.
ACAdemiC APPeALs
If a student fails to meet the requirements
of good academic standing and believes
that extenuating circumstances contributed
to this failure, the student may appeal
dismissal and apply for reinstatement to
matriculated status. The student must fle
a written appeal with the Vice President
and Dean of Academic Affairs by the date
