Probation

There are two types of probation: academic and progress. A student may be on either type of probation or on both. If a student is on either type of probation or on both:

  • there will be a permanent notation placed on the student's academic history;
  • a student will not be in good academic standing at the College;
  • the student will not be removed from probation until there is improvement in the overall academic record, even if there is improvement in the current semester academic record.

Students on probation may be contacted by the General Counseling Department or the EOP&S so that they may be provided individual counseling and guidance on how to improve their academic standing. The student's programs may be regulated so as to help them move off probation.

Academic Probation

A student who has attempted at least 12 units as shown on the official academic record will be placed on academic probation if the student has earned a grade point average below 2.00 in all units in which grades were given.

Progress Probation

A student who has attempted at least 12 units as shown on the official academic record will be placed on progress probation when the percentage of all units in which a student has enrolled and for which the student has been given a "W," "INC.," or "NCr." is 50% or more.

Removal from Probation

For removal from academic probation, a student must have an overall cumulative grade point average in all City College units of 2.00 or higher. For removal from progress probation, a student must have been given marks of "W," "INC.," or "NCr." in less than 50% of all City College units in which the student has enrolled.

Academic Dismissal

A student who has been on probation is subject to academic dismissal if the student has been on either academic probation or on progress probation or on both academic and progress probation for more than four consecutive semesters. If students are academically dismissed, a notation of "Academic Dismissal" will be placed on the permanent academic record. Consecutive semester's means four semesters in a row of the students attendance at City College. Summer sessions are not counted as regular semesters when semesters are being counted for academic dismissal.

Appeal of Academic Dismissal
and Request for Reinstatement

Students may appeal academic dismissal and petition and petition to be reinstated so they may continue their enrollment. Such petitions will be considered in cases of verified unusual circumstances. Students may request information or a Petition to Appeal Academic Dismissal and Request Reinstatement from the Office of the Dean of Student Advocacy, Rights and Responsibilities (Conlan Hall, Room 106). If students are reinstated, their reinstatement will be conditional based upon a review of the academic record at the end of each semester. Readmitted students will be subject to the continued requirements of the academic probation and academic dismissal regulation.
