ACADEMIC PROBATION AND SUSPENSION Jones County Junior College seeks to provide an environment suitable for promoting the systematic pursuit of learning. The College requires of its students reasonable academic progress. The retention of those students who repeatedly demonstrate a lack of ability, industry, maturity, and preparation would be inconsistent with this requirement. If a course is repeated, only the hours and the best grade are used in computing the grade point average. Academic probation and suspension regulations apply equally to all students. Suspensions may be appealed to the Admissions Committee. If an appeal is denied, the student may then follow DUE PROCESS PROCEDURES as outlined in the Student Handbook. Academic Probation Academic probation officially recognizes that a student is making unsatisfactory progress and is in need of help. Academic probation is designed to serve a four-fold purpose: to indicate that the quality of academic achievement is below the standards required in progressing satisfactorily toward graduation or transfer, to make clear to all concerned of the shortcomings of a student’s performance, to provide occasion for necessary counseling, and to give students opportunity to demonstrate adequate performance. Academic Probation Regulations 1. Students whose term grade point average at the end of any semester is below a 1.75. 2. Students currently on probation whose term grade point average is below a 2.0 will remain on academic probation. Students placed on academic probation will be required to meet the Admissions Committee for academic counseling at the beginning of the subsequent semester. Probation may be lifted by achieving a 2.0 term GPA the subsequent semester. Academic Suspension Academic suspension is a penalty imposed after a student has been allowed every reasonable opportunity to make satisfactory progress. The academic suspension period will provide an opportunity for students to reconsider their approaches to a college career or to make necessary adjustments in attitudes concerning the academic demands of college life.
