Students may be allowed to continue in their program, despite failing to meet academic progress and performance standards, if the following conditions are met:
- No previous D or F grade in any course in a prior term in a course less than 2 credits
- No previous recommendation for dismissal
- No timeline delays that may prevent students from completing their programs within the maximum allowable timeframe
Students who are allowed to continue in their program will be given an opportunity to repeat courses with F or D grades and will be placed on MAS for the subsequent term. - Additional stipulations relating to promotions criteria that must be met will be applied (e.g., specific WMPG requirements, repeating and passing comprehensive examinations, etc.).The student will be permitted to register for the course a second time and to earn a second grade for the course.
The new grade and credits earned will be calculated into the WMPG/cumulative GPA. The grade earned on the second attempt does not replace the grade earned on the first attempt. Both grades will appear on the student’s transcript. - Students who repeat a course will receive whatever grade is earned. Only the higher grade is used to compute the cumulative GPA; however, all grades for a course appear on the transcript.
Students who fail to meet the minimum requirement for a comprehensive exam may be given the opportunity to repeat and pass the examination within a stipulated timeframe. If the student fails the comprehensive exam on the second attempt, the student may be allowed to repeat the term (as per stipulations listed above) or will be recommended for dismissal.
It may be necessary for the student to repeat one or more courses to maintain a minimal 15 credits and maximum 20 credits workload.
