Academic Standards

Staff and resources are available to help students be academically successful. At the end of each academic year (at the end of the spring semester), the college will review students’ academic progress and identify individuals who need additional support and resources. If a student is placed on one of the following academic classifications they will need to meet with a college representative to identify appropriate support and resources to develop a plan for academic success.

To be in “good academic standing,” students must maintain a minimum 2.0 overall grade point average (GPA). Students receiving financial aid must also meet “Satisfactory Academic Progress” (SAP) requirements (pass a certain percentage of courses in which you enroll). If a student earns an overall GPA below the minimum 2.0, they will be placed on one of the Academic Classifications listed in the following section of the handbook.
