otherwise eligible, a student may receive financial<br />
assistance during the Academic Probation grading<br />
period. Failure to raise the grade point average above<br />
the minimum specified within the subsequent quarter<br />
will result in Academic Dismissal.<br />

�� All other elements of Satisfactory Academic<br />
Progress as outlined in the section on Satisfactory<br />

calendar years from the start of the initial term of<br />

�� When the presence of mitigating circumstances<br />
causes the student's grade point average to fall<br />
below the minimum standards, a letter from<br />
the student requesting reinstatement may<br />
be submitted to the Graduate Academic<br />
Committee for review. The Committee will<br />
determine whether a probationary reinstatement<br />
is necessary or if the decision for dismissal is<br />
warranted.<br />
ATTENDANCE POLICY<br />
QUARTER-BASED PROGRAMS ONLY<br />
Verifying Enrollment and Tracking Academic-<br />
Related Activities<br />
Enrollment for quarter-based programs is tracked during<br />
the first 21 calendar days of the term, and for a<br />
mini-term, the first fourteen calendar days, excluding<br />
scheduled breaks and holidays. Students who fail to<br />
attend a course during this period will be withdrawn<br />
from the course and students who fail to attend any<br />
courses during this period will be withdrawn from the<br />
school. In addition, student participation in academically-related<br />
activities will be tracked during the 7th<br />
and 8th week of a full term course, and the 4th week of<br />
a mini-term course. Regularly scheduled academicrelated<br />
activities occur throughout the school term and<br />
participation in these activities is essential to student<br />
success. Examples of academic activities include, but<br />
are not limited to: instructor lecture, mid-term assessment,<br />
quiz, field trip and academic advising. Students<br />
who fail to participate in any academically-related<br />
events during this period shall be withdrawn from<br />
school, unless the student participates in an advising<br />
session in the 9th week of the term (5th week of the<br />
mini-term).<br />
Add/Drop Period<br />
�� The first 14 calendar days of each academic quarter<br />
are designated as the add/drop period for students<br />
in quarter-based programs. Holidays that<br />
fall during this timeframe are not counted as part<br />
of the add/drop period. Students who wish to<br />
make course changes must request approval from<br />
the Academic Dean/Director of Education and the<br />
Student Finance Office.
