Academic Suspension

Students are subject to suspension for any of the following reasons:

• failure to pass the majority of all courses carried for a regular term (even if the student is not on academic probation);
• failure to meet the conditions of Academic Probation;
• failure to satisfy the Developmental Mathematics Requirement prior to the beginning of the third regular term of attendance;
• failure to successfully complete GSTR 110 by the end of the second regular term and GSTR 210 prior to the end of the third regular term of attendance. (Students are required to be enrolled in these courses until successful completion is achieved unless they are enrolled in GST 150: College Composition);
• failure to complete the Declaration of Primary Major process in a timely manner. Students are asked to declare a primary major by the end of the term in which they will accumulate fifteen (15) course credits.
  • Students who have earned 15 college credits in high school will be given the option of declaring a major prior to their third regular term of attendance, but will not be expected to do so until then.
  • When students are not approved for admission to a major initially because they do not meet the minimum requirements (see "Admission to the Major" for each of the academic majors listed in this Catalog & Student Handbook), they will have to wait until the next regular term to meet the minimum requirements and submit an a choice of Major online again during the window of opportunity to declare. Students who do not complete successfully the process during that term will be suspended unless they submit a letter to the Director of Academic Services requesting a one-term extension to declare a major. Failure to complete the Declaration of Primary Major process in the term of extension (the third term in which the student is in the declaration of primary major process) will result in suspension from the College.
