Probation

From the Graduate School Handbook, Section V, Academic and professional standards:

A student whose graduate CPHR falls below 3.0 after 15 graduate credit hours have been attempted is placed on probation by the dean of the Graduate School.

Graduate Associate. A student who is on probation in the Graduate School may not be appointed or reappointed as a graduate associate.

Removal from Probation. A student who raises the graduate CPHR to 3.0 or better is removed from probation and is placed in good standing by the dean of the Graduate School. Course work used in raising the CPHR must be a part of normal degree requirements and approved by the graduate studies committee.

Special Warning. A student on probation whose record continues to deteriorate will be warned that dismissal is likely if the record does not improve. Special warnings include performance criteria tailored to the individual student, usually in consultation with the graduate studies committee chair. [At the end of three consecutive semesters of probation the student is automatically dismissed from the university.]
