Academic Warning

A student is placed on academic warning when the student’s semester grade point average is below 2.00, but the cumulative grade point average is 2.00 or higher.

Academic Probation

Students whose cumulative grade point average (GPA) falls below a 2.0 at the end of any given grading period (semester) are automatically put on academic probation. Students on academic probation are restricted to thirteen (13) credits per semester. Students shall remain on academic probation until their cumulative GPA rises to a 2.0 or better, and students must abide by the 13 credit hour limit during the entire period of their probation. Probationary status is reviewed at the end of each semester and students who fail to abide by the credit limits for probation may have their schedules administratively adjusted by the Registrar in order to insure compliance with the College’s policy on academic probation.

Academic Suspension

Academic suspension occurs automatically at the end of the Spring semester when a student fails to meet the Standards of Minimum Progress listed below. A student who has been academically suspended may improve his/her academic standing by attending Summer School at Saint Augustine's College. Attendance at Summer School, however, does not result in automatic readmission to the College. Students may be readmitted to the College at the discretion of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs.

Students who are academically suspended must submit a letter of appeal to the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. Such appeals shall be in writing and must be submitted thirty days prior to the start of the term in which the student is requesting readmission. Students who are readmitted after academic suspension are on academic probation and must meet the requirements for students on academic probation until their cumulative grade point average (GPA) is a 2.0 or better. A student who has been readmitted following academic suspension and who maintains a current term GPA of 2.0 or better shall not be academically suspended although his/her cumulative GPA at the end of the Spring semester may be less than a 2.0. Students receiving a second academic suspension must wait one complete year before applying for readmission.
