Page 75 of 91 Academic Suspension Students who have been placed on academic probation and fail to achieve the minimum institutional cumulative grade point average during the next long semester will be placed on academic suspension. Students on academic suspension will be required to sit out one long semester and may re-enroll after such absence under academic probation. Prior to enrolling, the returning student must meet with an academic advisor to develop an academic improvement plan. The advisor will then meet with the student throughout the semester to monitor the student’s progress in meeting established goals and determine appropriate subsequent actions. The student may appeal the Academic Suspension to the Dean of the college/school, or the Dean’s designee, in which the student is pursuing a degree by submitting a petition for academic reinstatement and a student self-assessment . If the petition is approved, the student will be permitted to enroll under continued suspension. Prior to enrolling, the returning student must meet with the Dean to develop an academic improvement plan. The Dean (or their designee) will meet with the student throughout the semester to monitor the student’s progress in meeting established goals and determine appropriate subsequent actions. Removal of Academic Suspension Status by Wintermester, Maymester or Summer Study. Students placed on academic suspension at the end of the fall or spring semesters are eligible to attend the subsequent Wintermester, Maymester or Summer sessions at TAMIU. If the student achieves an institutional cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or better at the conclusion of the wintermester, maymester or summer terms, the academic suspension status will be removed.
