Standards for Satisfactory Academic Progress

All students must meet the following established minimum standards of achievement in order to successfully complete a course, progress through and complete the entire program.

Minimum Grade Requirement upon Graduation.

A student must have attained a GPA of 2.0 or better in all courses of the training program in order to be considered for graduation. See eligibility for graduation and program completion for complete requirements.

Monitoring of Student Progress.

The Academic Committee headed by the Program Director is responsible for monitoring student progress at the end of each course and cumulatively at the end of each quarter. The committee will review academic records of students who fall below the minimum standards. The student will be called for an academic review and advising prior to being allowed to progress through the program. A student’s academic performance will also be monitored while progressing through individual courses. A student must attain a grade of “C” or better in the Midterm and Final Examinations. If a student falls below the passing grade in either examinations, he/she will be called for Academic Advising where areas that call for improvement and/or further concentration will be identified. The advisor may either recommend the student for individual focused review or faculty/peer tutorial. The student must demonstrate successful completion of either interventions before being allowed to take the succeeding examination. A student who has a final grade of “INC” and does not successfully complete all coursework in the seven-day time period, or as otherwise specified, receives a course grade calculated based on a grade of “0” for missing work. Any action that may result from a grade calculated on this basis (such as Academic Probation or Academic Dismissal) is taken immediately. When an “INC” grade is removed and a final earned letter grade is assigned, the GPA is recalculated based on the final grade earned.

Academic Probation.

A student who is unable to maintain a 2.0 grade point average (GPA) in each course at end of a quarter will be placed on academic probation for the next quarter. Tutorial and/or focused review may be required of the student in an effort to reach the expected level of performance. The student must be able to commit extra time, if necessary, for scheduled academic advising, focused reviews and/or tutorials. The student has a right to appeal the decision to the Program Director. The appeal should be submitted in writing within one week of the committee’s decision.

Academic Dismissal.

At the end of probation, if the student has not brought his/her grades to meet the school’s satisfactory academic progress policy, then the student shall be dismissed from the program, depending on the recommendation of the academic review committee. The student has a right to appeal the decision to the Program Director. The appeal should be submitted in writing within one week of the committee’s decision.

New Lake College

Page 15

Maximum Time Frame.

A student must complete the program in no more than 150% of the normal program length. For example, if the Practical Nursing program takes four quarters to complete the entire 1000 clock hour requirements, a student is only allowed up to an additional two quarters to complete the program and must have attained all curricular requirements for graduation by then.

Repeated Courses.

If a student fails to earn a passing grade in a required course, he/she must repeat that course. Students may repeat a course only once and only as scheduling permits. Grades of “NG” and “W” do not count in the repeated course limitation. The grade received on the most recent repeat becomes the final grade and replaces all other grades for that course in the GPA calculation. All other attempts count in the calculation as attempted but not earned credits. Students who fail a required course twice are dismissed from the program.
