The Academic Standing policy, which can be seen on the public website here, reads: The college requires credit-seeking students to maintain satisfactory academic progress. Students who are not meeting academic standards may not be eligible for continued enrollment, per Procedure 5030. Financial aid recipients must ensure they meet the financial aid Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy, which may have separate standards in order for students to maintain financial aid eligibility.
At the end of each academic term, students will be assessed based on their performance, for their academic standing. Once assessed, students are notified by the college if they fall into Academic Warning, Probation or Suspension status. The criteria for those Academic Standings was determined by the committee, approved by the Executive Team and the Board of Education, and is as follows:
Good Standing; student meets all below standards:
-
A student who has a 2.00 or higher cumulative GPA
-
A student who has a 2.00 or higher term GPA
Academic Warning; student meets at least one of the below criteria:
-
A student who has earned a term GPA below 2.00, or

A student meeting all of the criteria above will be administratively dropped from any courses that they are enrolled in for the suspension term. A student suspended based on their performance in spring term will be dropped from summer and fall enrollment and will be eligible to enroll in fall term classes once the reinstatement process is complete. Students will be suspended from enrollment for a period no less than one academic term. The student may appeal their suspension through the Academic Standing Review Committee or designee.
