This 海角社区 Channel Islands policy does not supersede additional policies or procedures mandated by Chancellor's Executive Order 823.
Academic Probation
An undergraduate student is subject to academic probation if at any time the cumulative grade point average (GPA) in all college work attempted or the cumulative GPA at 海角社区CI falls below 2.0. Probationary students will be advised of their status at the end of the semester. The communication will include conditions for removal from probation and the circumstances that would lead to disqualification. All probationary students are required to receive academic advising no later than the second week of the following semester. Students shall be removed from academic probation once they have received such advising and both the cumulative GPA in all college work attempted and the cumulative GPA average at 海角社区CI are at least 2.0 or higher.

Academic Disqualification [top]
An undergraduate student on academic probation is subject to academic disqualification when: as a freshman the student falls below a GPA of 1.50 in all units attempted or in all units attempted at 海角社区 Channel Islands; as a sophomore the student falls below a GPA of 1.70 in all units attempted or in all units attempted at 海角社区 Channel Islands; as a junior the student falls below a GPA of 1.85 in all units attempted or in all units attempted at 海角社区 Channel Islands; as a senior the student falls below a GPA of 1.95 in all units attempted or in all units attempted at 海角社区 Channel Islands. Students' records will be evaluated for disqualification at the end of spring semester.
A post-baccalaureate student will be subject to academic probation if, after attempting 12 or more graded units, his or her post-baccalaureate cumulative GPA for units attempted at 海角社区 Channel Islands falls below a 2.50 average. The GPA will determine whether a student is subject to probation only when the student has attempted 12 semester units. A student enrolled in a graduate degree program in either conditionally classified or classified standing shall be subject to academic pr obation if he or she fails to maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 in all units attempted; no course in which the student receives lower than a C may be counted toward a Master's degree.
Administrative-Academic Probation [top]
An undergraduate or graduate student may be placed on administrative-academic probation for any of the following reasons:
- Withdrawal from more than half the units in which a student is enrolled in two successive semesters or in any three semesters (withdrawals directly associated with a medical condition are not included);
- Repeated failure to progress toward the stated degree objective; or
- Failure to comply, after due notice, with an academic requirement or regulation.
Probationary students will be advised of their status by letter at the end of the semester. The letter will include conditions for removal from probation and the circumstances that would lead to disqualification.
Administrative-Academic Disqualification [top]
A student who has been placed on administrative-academic probation may be disqualified if:
- the conditions for removal of academic-administrative probation are not met within the specified period;
- the student becomes subject to academic probation while on administrative-academic probation; and
- the student becomes subject to administrative-academic probation for the same or similar reason to a previous placement on academic-administrative probation, although not currently in such status.
When such action is taken, the student will receive written notification including an explanation of the basis for the action and the process for appeal.
Reinstatement [top]
In order to be considered for reinstatement to 海角社区CI, a disqualified student must demonstrate academic ability by completing additional coursework. All classes taken must be applicable for degree credit at 海角社区CI. After eliminating the grade-point deficiency, the student may petition the Academic Appeals Board for reinstatement. The student must submit the petition for reinstatement no later than three weeks before the beginning of the semester that the student intends to return. The Academic Appeals Board will only consider the petition for reinstatement of students who have remained outside of the university for at least one regular (Fall or Spring) semester after their dismissal. Students who are disqualified, reinstated, and become disqualified a second time will not be granted a second reinstatement.
