Failure Policy<br />

(SCU Policy 5.5.5.2)<br />

(SCU Policy 5.5.5.2.1.1)<br />

If a student received a failing grade in two subjects during a single trimester, his/her case shall be referred to the<br />

College Dean. The student may, depending upon his/her past academic record, be suspended or dismissed from<br />

the College or may be permitted to continue on a probationary status which will be in effect <strong>for</strong> at least one<br />

trimester. Future enrollment eligibility will be contingent upon completion <strong>and</strong> passing of the failed subjects <strong>and</strong><br />

a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above.<br />

If failure has been in three or more subjects, the student shall be dismissed or placed on academic suspension<br />

<strong>for</strong> a period of time not less than one trimester. A recurrence of three or more failures in one trimester <strong>for</strong> a<br />

student will result in dismissal without opportunity to return to that College within the University. If suspended,<br />

the student will be placed on academic probation <strong>for</strong> not less than one term, or until they successfully achieve<br />

further failure in the course will result in suspension or dismissal.<br />

Future enrollment eligibility will be contingent upon completion <strong>and</strong> passing of the failed subjects <strong>and</strong> a<br />

cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above.<br />

Students failing the same course three times will be notified of the suspension or dismissal from the College<br />
