Students who have been retained following a successful appeal to the PCAPPS will be placed on a PAF. The PAF is an internal marker placed in students’ progress files by the APRC.
It allows students who were recommended for dismissal to continue in their program, for one semester with stipulations set out by the PCAPPS. Students may continue PAF for an additional semester if the APRC sees significant improvement. While on a MAS, students are reviewed by the APRC each semester. Mandatory academic advising may also be required as stipulated by the PCAPPS.
Students on PAF must achieve the minimum GPA standards for their year and term (as previously described) to avoid an automatic recommendation for dismissal.
