ACADEMIC STANDARDS Graduate students must maintain an
academic grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.0 (B) during their enrollment
in the program. In order to graduate, students must have at least a 3.0 (B)
GPA.
ACADEMIC STANDING
Graduate students will be placed on
academic probation if their cumulative GPA drops below 3.0 (B). Those who do not
achieve a cumulative GPA of 3.0 (B) within two semesters of being placed on
academic probation will be dismissed from the program. A student who receives
one ‘C+’ will be placed on academic probation but may progress with coursework.
A subsequent grade of a ‘C+’ or lower will dismiss them from the program
regardless of GPA. A course in which students receive a grade of ‘C’ must be
successfully repeated before they can continue in higher level coursework. A
student who receives an ‘F’ will be dismissed from the program. Students
dismissed from the MSN program may appeal the action to the School of Nursing
Admissions Committee.
