Monitored Academic Status (MAS)

If students are not making satisfactory academic progress, they may be placed on Monitored Academic Status. MAS is an internal marker placed in students’ progress files by the APRC.

It allows students who do not meet the academic performance standards to continue in their program, for one semester with a prescribed program of courses. Students may continue MAS for an additional semester if the APRC sees significant improvement. While on MAS , students are reviewed by the APRC each semester.

Students in the last term of their program will be given one additional term in which to meet the requirements.
