Michigan State University - Low Scholarship PolicyProbation Students on probation may be required to see an academic adviser. If they do not, a hold may be placed on their registration. If at the end of that semester, the cumulative grade-point average is at least a 2.00, the student is returned to good standing. If not, the student will be put on final probation or recessed. Final Probation
Students on final probation may be required to see an academic adviser. If they do not, a hold may be placed on their registration. At the end of the semester on final probation, the cumulative grade-point average must be at least 2.00 or the student will be recessed. An exception to this can be made for students with 30 or fewer credits earned at MSU. If such a student has shown substantial progress during the semester and the evidence suggests that the student would attain good standing in one or more semester, the student may be granted one additional semester on (extended) final probation at the discretion of the assistant dean of the student's college. Warning
for Repeats Recess 2. If at the
end of a semester during which the student was on probation and the cumulative
grade-point average is still below 2.00 and the semester grade-point average
is below 2.00 (1.50 for students with fewer than 30 credits earned at
MSU), the student will be recessed. The student must remain out of MSU
for at least one full academic year. 3. If at the
end of a semester during which the student was on final probation and
the cumulative grade-point average is not at least 2.00, the student will
be recessed. The student must remain out of MSU for at least one full
academic year. After a recessed
student has been out of MSU for the prescribed period, the student may
be readmitted to MSU at the discretion of the appropriate assistant dean.
If readmitted, the student will be put on probation, final probation as
appropriate, and the assistant dean may impose specific conditions in
writing that must be met. A second recess is dismissal. Dismissal
2. At the end
of a semester in which 21 or more credits have been repeated the student
will be dismissed. Students who have been dismissed must remain out of school for at least two years. After that period, they may be readmitted only if a convincing case can be made to the assistant dean of the admitting college that circumstances have changed so that there is a reasonable probability of success. Students will be readmitted on probation, final probation as appropriate and specific conditions in writing will be imposed UCLA - Satisfactory Progress PolicyThe following applies to 1st year students admitted for or after Fall 2001 and transfer students admitted for or after Fall 2003. If you have questions or if at any time you are unable to meet minimum progress/expected cumulative progress as outlined below, you should make an appointment to meet with a counselor in your advising unit . 1. During a regular quarter of enrollment, you are required toenroll in a minimum of 13 units. 2. You will also be required to meet Cumulative Progress expectations as outlined in the chart below. Expected cumulative progress will be calculated after the completion of each two quarters. Units earned during a summer session at UCLA or at another accredited school and transferred to UCLA shall be counted toward expected cumulative progress. However, these units may not be used to offset the minimum 13 units per quarter requirement. 3. For students
who enter directly out of high school, units earned under the following
three circumstances are not to be counted toward expected cumulative progress
4. If you have not met expected cumulative progress in the previous two completed quarters, you will be placed on ECP Probation. If you have not met expected cumulative progress in the previous four completed quarters, you will be Subject to Disqualification from further registration at the University. 5. For the first 16 units of repeats, a repeated course will be calculated as units toward the expected cumulative progress total. Units graded IP (In Progress) shall be counted as units passed. Units graded 'I' (Incomplete) are not counted as units completed. When the Grade 'I' is replaced by a passing grade, the units shall be counted toward expected cumulative progress for the quarter in which the 'I' grade is removed. 6. Petitions for exceptions to these requirements must be approved by the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education and may be granted only for extraordinary circumstances. 7. Although you don't earn units toward your degree for classes such as Chemistry 17, English Composition A, and ESL 33A, they do count toward fulfilling your Expected Cumulative Progress requirement since they displace units on your study list. EXPECTED CUMULATIVE PROGRESS
* Excludes units earned prior to admission to UCLA Letters & Science undergraduates who entered UCLA prior to Fall 2001 and transfer students who entered UCLA prior to Fall 2003 are required to pass at least 36 units during a given academic year. The College defines the academic year in the following sequence: Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring. Students who do not pass at least 36 units during a given year are placed on Minimum Progress Probation. Students who do not pass at least 32 units during a given year will be placed on Minimum Progress Subject To Dismissal status by the College. (Note that this is NOT the same as Academic Subject to Dismissal Status.) Each student's progress is reviewed annually at the end of Spring Quarter, and notices are sent to students in violation (along with petitions requesting waivers). UCLA coursework (or coursework transferred from another institution, including AP units) completed during the summer may be applied towards satisfaction of minimum progress for the following academic year only. NOTE: Spring Quarter incompletes do NOT exempt one from minimum progress. For information on what qualifies as a waiver to the minimum progress Minimum Progress Exemptions
1) AUTOMATIC EXEMPTIONS: If one of the following occured in any one of the three quarters of a given academic year, you are automatically exempt from minimum progress requirements for the whole year:
2) EXEMPTIONS THROUGH PETITION:The following circumstances will also exempt a student from minimum progress for the year, but they require approval by green waiver petition:
Fee: None Effect on Transcript: None NOTE: Double majors may petition to increase the credit unit limit specified by their department in order to complete the requirements for both majors. The procedure for petitioning for an increase in maximum credit units is as follows: If after conferring with your departmental advisors you determine that you will exceed the unit maximum, you will need to submit a Blue Petition along with your Double Major Petition to your L & S advising unit. On the Blue Petition indicate the exact number of units you will have completed when you have finished all Major and College requirements (for example: "request to graduate with __units"). You may wish to make an appointment with a Full-Time Counselor in your advising unit before submitting the Blue Petition to help you determine remaining GE, Upper Division, and Senior Residence requirements. Attach the following documents to the completed Blue Petition and submit it to your L & S advising unit: * The initialed
DPR and modeled DPR explained above; If your Blue Petition to exceed maximum units is approved, the College will grant the Double Major. However, please be aware that approval of the Blue Petition is not guaranteed. UC Invine - Satisfactory Progress PolicyTo remain in good academic standing a student must maintain a grade point average of at least 2.0 and make progress toward the degree at a satisfactory rate. Regular undergraduate students will become subject to probation or to disqualification from further registration in the University if they fail to make normal progress toward the baccalaureate degree, if they fail to declare a major by the time they reach junior status (90 units excluding college work completed prior to high school graduation), or after declaring a major, if they fail to follow the program of study required by the academic unit of their major. Students who have selected undeclared status within a school may be subject to probation or to disqualification if they fail to follow a program of study leading to completion of lower-division school requirements. A. Normal progress for all regular undergraduate students is defined in the following table, in terms of quarter units completed at the end of quarters enrolled.
1. Undeclared students who have completed the number of units specified in the given quarter of their enrollment, as shown in the table above, and are following a course of study prescribed by their school are making "Normal Progress." 2. Students who have declared a major must follow the program of study required for their major, as well as complete the units specified in the given quarter of their enrollment, as shown in the table above, in order to make "Normal Progress." Students must declare a major by the time they reach junior status (90 units excluding college work completed prior to high school graduation). 3. Students who fail to make Normal Progress as defined in (1) or (2) above are subject to being placed on probation by the faculty of their academic unit or its designated agent, or for first-year undecided/undeclared students, by the Faculty Board for Undecided/Undeclared Students or its designated agent. C. Students who have completed two consecutive quarters on academic probation without having achieved at the end of that period at least the normal rate of progress specified under (A) and (B) above are subject to disqualification. D. For purposes of calculating "Normal Progress," "Subject to Probation," and "Subject to Disqualification," students admitted to the University with advanced standing will be classified with respect to quarter of enrollment at entrance in accordance with the following table:
E. Units earned under the following two circumstances are not to be counted toward determination of the quarter at entrance under (D) above: (1) Advanced Placement Examination; (2) concurrent enrollment in college courses while in high school. F. The quarter of enrollment at entrance of students (including baccalaureate degree candidates who already hold a baccalaureate degree) seeking admission to the University with 150 or more advanced standing units will be determined by the faculty offering the curriculum in which such students seek to enroll. This determination will be made consistent with the program required for such students to obtain the desired degree and with University residence requirements. G. For purposes of this regulation students will be understood to have declared a major when they have been formally accepted by the faculty of a degree-granting program or its designated agent to pursue a defined course of study leading to a baccalaureate degree. H. All undergraduate students are expected to graduate when they have completed the baccalaureate requirements of their declared major or majors. The Normal Progress requirement described above is not to be confused with the Normal Academic Progress requirement for Financial Aid. The former has to do with academic standing, the latter with receipt of financial aid. Probation is not a necessary step before disqualification. If a student becomes subject to disqualification, the complete record of grades and other accomplishments will be carefully reviewed by the responsible faculty authorities of the student's school or, for undecided/undeclared students, by a faculty authority designated by the Faculty Board for Undecided/Undeclared Students. If the record indicates little probability that the student will be able to meet the academic standards of the University of California, the student will be disqualified from further enrollment. Faculties of undergraduate-degree-granting units and the Faculty Board for Undecided/Undeclared Students are obliged by Academic Senate regulations to maintain a procedure under which a student may contest disqualification actions. In order to
transfer from one campus to another in the University of California or
from one UCI school to another, a student who has been disqualified or
who is on academic probation must obtain the approval of the appropriate
faculty, or its designated agent, into whose jurisdiction the student
seeks to transfer.
