Notes
- Any aggregate of two failures or four unsatisfactory grades or a combination thereof in successive terms results in Suspension.
- After receiving three Risk notices, any failing or unsatisfactory grade in any subsequent term will result in Probation (unless the student is otherwise liable for Suspension or Separation). Any Risk notice received at any term after a term of Probation as described in the preceding sentence results in Suspension. If a student's record at any time warrants a third Warning notice, the student will be placed on Probation. A student who warrants a Probation notice for a second time is placed on Suspension. A student who warrants Suspension (including Withdrawal with Prejudice) for a second time is Separated.
- For the purpose of academic actions, a final standing of NC in any course shall be treated as a grade of E.
Requests for Reconsideration
Students suspended or separated from the College for unsatisfactory academic performance may request that the COS reconsider its action by submitting to the Chair, in writing, any evidence of extenuating circumstances which would warrant a change in the COS action. A student's written request for reconsideration should be directed to the Committee on Standards and must be submitted to the Director of Undergraduate Judicial Affairs who sets a deadline at the end of each term. Students who intend to request such reconsideration must notify the Director of Undergraduate Judicial Affairs Office within 48 hours of their notification of suspension or separation. They must submit the written statement by the first day of the succeeding term. Suspension and separation decisions are reconsidered by a COS academic action panel. Questions about the Request for Reconsideration process should be directed to a student's class dean or to the Director of Undergraduate Judicial Affairs Office.
