Academic Standards, Eligibility and Social Standards Academic Standards—The Scholastic Standards Program exists to help students perform more nearly in accordance with their potential. Any student whose graded performance is lower than he thinks it should be, may, at his request, receive evaluation of and help concerning ability, study skills, choice of major, and personal problems. All students whose cumulative grade average is below a "C" or 2.0 level and all students whose quarterly grade average is below a "D" or 1.0 level will be placed on probation as indicated below. All such students will not be eligible to participate in certain college-sponsored activities. (See Eligibility Standards.) Categories of probation are defined by grade point deficits below the total required for a "C" average. The deficit is reported at the bottom of the student's report of grades. Any 62 Academic Information questions should be directed to the Director of Scholastic Standards, Room 144, in the Social Science Bldg. I. ACADEMIC WARNING (1 to 15 grade points below a "C" average). Whenever a student compiles a grade point total which is within 15 points of the total necessary for a 2.0 average, he will be placed on warning. His advisor approval card will indicate the status to both the student and his advisor, both of whom should take steps to remedy the cause of low grades and prevent an increased grade point deficit. They should give serious consideration to limiting the total course load and should select classes in which the student has the highest probability of success. Students, regardless of their cumulative grade point average, who perform below a grade point average of 1.0 for any quarter will be placed on Warning. These students and other students on Warning whose record warrants special consideration will receive formal notification of their status and will be scheduled to visit with the Director of Scholastic Standards. II. ACADEMIC PROBATION (16 or more grade points below a "C" average). Performance resulting in a grade point deficit of 16 or more points places a student on Final Probation. His registration will be regulated by the Director of Scholastic Standards. A letter will be sent to the student notifying him of an appointment to visit with the Director. III. SUSPENSION Students on Academic Probation who fail to earn a grade point average of 2.0 or better for that quarter will be suspended from further attendance at Weber State College. Readmission will be considered only in cases where the student can present evidence to the Admissions Committee which would indicate positive change in circumstances suggesting a high probability of future successful performance. Eligibility—To protect students from becoming involved in extracurricular activities when their scholastic record is not high enough to warrant the additional expenditure of time and to provide for fair representation of all who represent the institution, the college specifies minimum standards of eligibility.
