One of the most common excuses given by those who
are on probation is: “I didn’t know.” This probation
session will offer you the opportunity to understand
your academic situation and the policies that govern
students.
It is your responsibility as a student to be aware of the
district’s academic probation policies and procedures at
the respective college or center you are planning to
attend.
Purpose
To understand how to improve your
academic standing and avoid continued
probation
To help you achieve your academic
goal(s)
To learn strategies for success

How to Figure Your Probation Status for
Progress Probation
Use Cumulative Totals on transcript
Add the Grade Point Units (GPU) and your
“W”, “I”, “NC”, “NP” (WINC) and divide the
total by 2.
If total is equal to or larger than (GPU) you
are on Progress Probation
Progress Probation Example
CUM WINC = 16 + CUM GPU = 12 2
(16 + 12) = 28 2 = 14
14 is greater than 12 CUM GPU
This student is dropping more units than
completing and is on Progress Probation
Academic & Progress Dismissal
Disqualified after three consecutive
semesters of a Cumulative G.P.A. less than
1.75 after attempting 12 or more GPU units.
Or you have not completed 50% of the units
attempted in three semesters
Excluding summer sessions
Readmission After Dismissal
Dismissal - out one semester from any campus or center
within the district
May appeal any dismissal through petition at the campus or
center you plan to attend if extenuating circumstances exist
Examples of extenuating circumstances include: accident,
illness, death in the immediate family, military duty, jury duty,
job displacement, family displacement, instructor error and/or
other circumstances which are justifiable in the judgment of
the college president or his designee
Helpful Hints

Drop courses before deadlines (list drop
deadlines ?’s)

receiving a substandard grade(s) one time after initial
attempt. A petition will be required to enroll in a
course a third time. A petition will also be required to
enroll in a course a fourth time only if extenuating
circumstances exist
The grade earned in the last attempt will be used to
calculate the GPA
