Progress Reports and Academic Warnings<br />

During the semester, each student will receive a progress report and will receive an academic<br />

warning if he/she is not meeting the standards set for passing the course. A midsemester<br />

progress report is received by every student in Spring Semester and the student<br />

should discuss this report with his/her professors.<br />

Policy on Academic Achievement<br />

At the conclusion of each semester, the academic records of all students are reviewed by<br />

the Academic Policies Committee, the Director of Academic <strong>Program</strong>s, and the Executive<br />

Vice President. A student who is not working up to expectations may be: (1) warned about<br />

academic progress; (2) placed on academic probation; (3) dismissed for academic insufficiency.<br />

Such decisions are made in consultation with the student's Academic Advisor and<br />

the student's professors.<br />
