Academic Dismissal

Good standing is forfeited and the student will be academically dismissed from the College in any of the following cases:

  1. GPA below 1.00 in any one term
  2. Academic probation for two successive terms, or three total terms
  3. Failure to complete Work Projects or the Co-op semester
  4. Cumulative grade point average below that specified on the chart of Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) 
  5. Possible   violations
  6.   violation

If a student has been academically dismissed from the College as a result of losing good academic standing, the student may petition to return for a probationary semester by submitting a written appeal to the Assistant Dean of Student Academic Affairs.  In the event the petition is accepted, the student may continue at LIM College on conditional probation pursuant to guidelines set forth in the petition acceptance agreement. These guidelines may include but are not limited to: limited course loads, mandated academic support services, achieving minimum GPA and earned credit requirements, and other restrictions as determined appropriate. To assist the student in focusing on her/his academic performance, participation in credited and non-credited internships as well as volunteer opportunities through the Center for Career Development is restricted. At the end of one semester the student will either be reinstated to full-time status or be dismissed.

Commitments made by the student to any internship or other special project must be honored. Withdrawal from the commitment can also result in a failing grade or possible academic dismissal.
