Academic Standing - Graduate Studies in Nursing
Placement on Probation - Students enrolled in a graduate nursing program will be placed on probation if their GPA falls below 3.0.
Students are given two consecutive courses to satisfactorily raise their GPA. The GPA is reviewed after the second course, and if it has been successfully raised, the probationary status is removed. Academic suspension will result if the student's GPA is not successfully raised.
Academic Suspension - Academic suspension will result if:
- A student fails to clear the academic probationary status within the probationary period of two consecutive courses.
- A student has taken a course twice and failed to achieve a satisfactory grade. When this occurs, the student is ineligible to reapply for admission into the program in which the course was repeated.
In all cases, the suspension will occur once the grades have been recorded in the Registrar's Office. Students will be notified of the academic suspension in writing. Application for readmission may be made after six months. The application must be made in writing to the Dean of the School of Nursing.
Academic Dismissal - Upon a second academic suspension in the same program, a student is not eligible to reapply to Indiana Wesleyan University.
