Any
one of the following conditions will result in the removal of a Rutgers
Business School: Undergraduate-Newark program minor:
- Cumulative grade-point average lower than 2.0
- Two grades of D (1.0) or F (0.0) received in minor courses
- Two grades of D (1.0) or F (0.0) received in the same minor course
Students
whose minors have been removed can appeal to the Scholastic Standing
Committee if there are extenuating circumstances that account for poor
academic performance. This must be done, in writing, by the date
indicated within the removal letter. The appeal must be written by the
student. Presenting false or intentionally misleading information in the
appeal may result in immediate dismissal of the appeal and/or judicial
charges. The appeal should be no more than four pages and must be
received before the deadline date outlined in the removal letter.
The letter of appeal must include:
- Student's name, RUID number, current address, and Rutgers email address
- Circumstances that negatively affected the student's academic performance during the semester of the dismissal
- What was done to address these issues, or what is being done if these circumstances are still ongoing
- Any
administrative contact made with Rutgers Business School: Undergraduate-Newark; Rutgers, The State
University of New Jersey; or any outside office(s) to address these
issues, and the outcome of these efforts
- Appropriate supporting documentation
If
students choose not to appeal or if the appeal is rejected, the minor
removal will be final. Students will not be eligible to declare any
additional Rutgers Business School: Undergraduate-Newark minor.
