A student will be placed on academic probation whenever his/her cumulative average is ten (10) or more quality points below a 2.0 average. To determine this, one should multiply by two the cumulative hours attempted (GPA hours). If the answer is ten or more quality points greater than the actual cumulative quality points earned, the student is placed on probation. (e.g., Student pursues 15 semester hours and earns 21 quality points. Multiply 15 x 2=30; subtract 21 from 30=9; student is not on probation because nine is less than ten.) Until the 1999 Spring Semester, the adjusted GPA was used to determine the academic status. Once on academic probation, a student will remain on probation (as long as each semester or summer session's average is at least 2.0) until the cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher is achieved. While on probation, a student may be limited to no more than 15 hours if the GPA is 1.5 or higher and 12 hours if the GPA is below 1.5 for the fall and spring semesters; however, a student may be limited to 8/9 hours if the cumulative GPA is above 1.5 and 6 hours if the cumulative GPA is below 1.5 for the summer session.
