C. Academic Standing
1. The assignment of academic standing is based on both the student's most recent term and overall grade point average.
2. The minimum satisfactory academic average is 1.70 for freshmen and joint-enrolled high school students; 1.80 for sophomores; 1.95 for juniors; 2.00 for seniors, and special undergraduates; 2.70 for master's and special graduate students; and 3.00 for doctoral students.
3. Good academic standing Students not on academic probation are in good academic standing.
4. Academic warning
a) Academic warning is a subcategory of good academic standing, differing only in the maximum allowable schedule load.
b) A student who has an overall academic average below the minimum satisfactory scholarship requirement, or whose
academic average for work taken during any term is below this requirement, shall be placed on academic warning.
5. Academic probation
a) A student on academic warning whose academic average is below the minimum satisfactory scholarship requirement for any term shall be placed on academic probation.
b) A student also may be placed on academic probation through other actions, as described in the following section.
6. Dismissal for unsatisfactory scholarship
a) The Institute may drop from the rolls at any time a student whose record in scholarship is unsatisfactory.
b) An undergraduate student whose academic average for any term is 1.00 or below may be referred to the Undergraduate Curriculum Committee, which may place the student on academic probation or drop, regardless of the student's previous record, if such action is deemed advisable.
c) A graduate student whose academic average for any term is 2.00 or below may be placed on academic probation or dropped, regardless of the student's previous record.
d) A student on academic probation whose scholastic average for the term of probation is below the minimum satisfactory scholarship requirement and whose overall academic average is below the minimum satisfactory scholarship requirement shall be dropped from the rolls for unsatisfactory scholarship.
e) The record of a student on academic probation whose term average is unsatisfactory, but whose overall academic record is satisfactory, may be reviewed by the Undergraduate Curriculum Committee or the Graduate Committee, as appropriate. The student may be dropped or may be continued on academic probation.
7. Academic review
A student who normally would be dropped from the rolls for academic deficiencies but appears from the record not to have completed the term may be placed on academic review. This is a temporary standing that makes the student ineligible for registration. If no acceptable explanation is given within a reasonable time, the standing is changed to drop.
8. The academic standing regulations given previously for graduate students do not preclude a school from having more rigorous requirements.
Please note that a freshman can go on warning after their first semester; then on probation after their second semester. So unless the freshman was enrolled in summer semester of last year - he cannot get dropped unless he has something like two straight 0.0s. Basically; all the freshman have a chance to earn eligibility this summer. To regain good standing status they have to gain a GPA above 1.7 for freshman. I hope these kids can make enough effort to get 3 C's this summer. Otherwise we are in much more serious trouble than we think.
