If either ACADEMIC PROBATION or SUSPENSION appears below your grades, read the following
carefully.
ACADEMIC PROBATION provides a warning that your work has not met the minimum standards.
You may continue at Texas State but you must raise your Texas State GPA during your first long
semester on probation. Attaining a 2.00 or higher Texas State GPA removes you from probation;
raising your Texas State GPA without attaining a 2.00 permits you to return for a second
long semester on probation. If you do not raise your Texas State GPA during your first long
semester on probation or do not attain a 2.00 by the end of your second long semester on
probation, you will be suspended. You may not raise your Texas State GPA with work from other
institutions.
ACADEMIC SUSPENSION means that you have repeatedly failed to meet the minimum
academic standards and are now prohibited from enrolling in the University for a specified
period of time. A first academic suspension prohibits you from enrolling for the next long
semester while a second academic suspension is for a period for two calendar years.
If you have been placed on academic suspension, your advance registration will be
cancelled.
If you have been placed on your first academic suspension at the end of the spring
semester, you are eligible to attend summer school and will be reinstated for the fall if you
(a) attend both summer sessions at Texas State (b) pass at least 9 semester hours, and
(c) earn at least a 2.00 GPA on all summer work attempted, or if your Texas State GPA is a 2.00 or
greater at the end of Summer II.
If you have been placed on your second (or greater) academic suspension at the end of
the spring semester, your suspension takes effect immediately and you may not attend summer
school. At the end of the two-year suspension, you may apply for readmission to Texas State, but your
application will be considered on an individual basis by your dean, who may impose special
conditions for readmission. In any case, you may not raise you Texas State GPA with work from other
institutions.
"I" grades are excluded from the GPA calculations. If you are on suspension because of
"I" grades, completion of the course(s) may may raise your GPA sufficiently to permit
removal from suspension. Report any grade changes to you dean immediately. Appeals for a waiver
of suspension may be granted only in extremely extenuating circumstances. An appeal for a
waiver of suspension accompanied by appropriate documentation should be made to your dean no later
than the Monday of the week of registration.
Housing: If you have been placed on academic suspension and have a housing reservation
on file in Residential Living, you must contact that office (JCK-380; 245-2382) by January 6 (spring
semester) or June 15 (fall semester) if you wish to retain your housing reservation pending the
outcome of an appeal.
