The following are the Academic probation policy,
Satisfactory Academic Progress-ED 3-2
POLICY
1. DEFINITIONS
Satisfactory academic progress shall be defined as the
achievement of grades which permit a student to move to the next
highest level of academic studies. Although minimum satisfactory
achievement is a 1.00 grade point value in a particular course, a
student is expected to maintain a minimum Grade Point Average (GPA) of
1.60.
Academic probation is a warning to a student that academic
progress has not been satisfactory and that subsequent non-performance
may result in other forms of academic restrictions.
2. GENERAL
All students who enter XXU are expected to maintain acceptable
standards of academic performance. Should a student fall below
acceptable performance, the following policy will apply:
1. A student shall be placed on academic probation in the next
semester attended when the semester or cumulative GPA falls below 1.60
on two or more credit courses. Upon approval by the Vice-President
Academic, individual departments may set higher minimum academic
standards which take precedence over TRU-wide standards. If at the end
of the probation period:
1. the GPA on assigned grades during the probation period and the
cumulative GPA are 1.60 or higher, the student will be considered to
be in good academic standing;
2. the GPA on assigned grades during the probation period is 1.60 or
higher but the cumulative GPA is less than 1.60, the student will
continue on academic probation;
3. the GPA on assigned grades during the probation period is less
than 1.60, but the cumulative GPA is 1.60 or higher, the student will
continue on academic probation;
4. both the GPA on assigned grades during the probation period and
the cumulative GPA are less than 1.60, the student will be required to
withdraw for at least one of a Fall or Winter semester.
2. A student who is required to withdraw may reapply for admission at
the end of one semester's absence. Upon re-admission the student will
be placed on academic probation subject to the academic probation
terms above.
3. However, at the end of the probation period, if both the cumulative
GPA and the GPA for assigned grades during the probation period are
below 1.60, the student will be required to withdraw and re-admission
will not be considered for the period of two calendar years.
