Any student who participates in any of the activities concerned without meeting all of the criteria for eligibility, including full-time registration in the quarter during which the student participates, places himself and his organization in jeopardy. If a student's eligibility is challenged and found wanting, he and his organization may be required to forfeit any win gained during such participation. ACADEMIC STANDARDS The Academic 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 skill, 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 warning 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 questions should be directed to the Director of Academic Standards in the Administration Building. 1. Academic Warning (1 to 15 grade points below a C average). Students regardless of their cumulative grade point average, who perform below a grade point average of 1.0 for any one 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. It is recommended that they visit with a counselor in the Counseling and Testing Center. 2. 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 probation. His registration may be regulated by a counselor, and he should plan to work closely with a counselor until such time as he is taken off probation. 3. Suspension Students on academic probation who fail to improve their grade point average will be suspended from further attendance at Weber State College following Spring Quarter each year. 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 academic success.
