This policy outlines the appeal process for students on academic suspension.
This policy applies to all students.
Upon academic suspension, a student who wishes to resume studies must first appeal the suspension in writing. The appeal must be received and reviewed prior to the beginning of the term following the student’s suspension. The associate provost of academic operations and an appeals committee will review the student’s letter of appeal, along with the student’s academic history and overall academic performance.
Continuously enrolled students whose appeals of academic suspension are granted will resume their studies on probation. Any student who discontinued studies for one term or more, and who departed the university under academic suspension must appeal the suspension before being readmitted. Upon readmission, students who have discontinued enrollment for less than one year will be subject to the requirements in the catalog in effect at the time they were first admitted to the university.
Students who discontinued studies for more than one year will be subject to the requirements in the catalog in effect at the time of their return.
Note: Students will be notified of their academic suspension by email and will be provided a link with guidelines for submitting the appeal online, including a specific date by which the appeal must be received. If a student’s appeal is not received by the date specified, the student will be dropped from all classes, and, if a resident, the student's campus housing will be cancelled.
Please direct any questions about this policy to the Office of the Registrar.
