At the end of each
semester, the Committee on Academic Standing, composed of faculty and academic
staff, will review and may take action on the record of every student whose
semester or cumulative grade-point average is below 2.000. The committee may
suspend or dismiss students from the School of Arts and Sciences (except at the
end of the first semester) or place students on academic warning or probation.
All such students are notified via email. However, all students are responsible
for monitoring their own academic record and performance, and failure to
receive the notification does not nullify the academic standing action. In addition,
students are encouraged to seek assistance early on from the appropriate
university resources.
For the purpose of
academic standing, grades reported as TZ, TF, or NG and blank grades may be
calculated into the student's semester grade-point average as F. Courses with E
and J prefixes are excluded from the formula for grade-point average
calculation (with the exception of TZ and NG grades in potential dismissal
cases). Exercising the repeated course option does not negate prior academic
standing actions.
