Probation
If you have ever
received an academic warning, you will be placed on probation at
the end of any subsequent semester in which you have one or more
of the following:
Note: At any point
during your college career, a semester GPA below 1.0 will result in
immediate suspension.
If you experience two "probation semesters in a row,"
you will automatically be suspended.
If you are placed on
probation, you must regain good standing by the
end of the next semester, or you will be suspended.

Meet
with your academic adviser before classes start
If you are placed on
probation, meet with your academic adviser as soon as possible -- to
decide whether you need to make changes in your schedule for the upcoming
semester.
-
Should you repeat a
course to replace a D or F? This is the fastest way to raise
your resident GPA.
-
Are you in the
right major? If changing majors, should you drop and add
courses? Should you get a new adviser?
-
Are you
enrolled for too many credits? Don't try to take 18 credits to
"try to catch up" for losses in past semesters. To
regain good standing, it works better to take fewer credits and earn
higher grades.
Meet with your
academic adviser in mid-semester
Stay in touch with your
adviser throughout the semester. Ask for advice if you begin to struggle
in any of your classes.
Meet with your adviser
in mid-semester to plan your next semester's schedule. All
students on probation, including juniors and seniors, are now required to
meet with their adviser and to get a PAC code (Personal Advising Code) before
registering for the next semester.
