Academic warning means that a student earned less than a 2.0 GPA during the last term. A hold will be placed on a student\u2019s account, meaning that they can\u2019t register for the next term until the hold has been lifted.<\/p>\n
To get your hold lifted, meet with an Advisor in Student Success and Advising. In this appointment, the student and advisor will review the academic standing policy, financial aid implications, and discuss a plan for future success.<\/p>\n
To make an appointment with an SSA Advisor, log into the Portal and select the blue Navigate icon. Select the \u201cMake an Appointment\u201d button, \u201cStudent Success and Advising\u201d for the student service, and \u201cAcademic Standing\u201d for appointment reason.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Academic Support” _builder_version=”4.23.4″ tab_font=”|800|||||||” tab_font_size=”11px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Academic support means that a student earned less than a 2.0 GPA in the last two terms<\/u>.

A second academic suspension means a student will have to take a mandatory year off. Alternatively, a student can take 24 credits at another institution, earn a cumulative GPA of 2.5 or better in those 24 credits, and request to be reinstated.<\/p>\n When students are emailed about being suspended, they are also given directions for how to petition to waive the mandatory time off requirement. Students may submit this petition if they feel that they have an extenuating situation that affected their academic success. They will be required to fill out the Academic Suspension – Petition to Waive Mandatory Time Off<\/a> (found on the Registrar\u2019s website), answer the questions on the form, have all registration holds lifted, and meet with the suspension committee.
