In applying our Academic Standards, the calculation of “total credits completed” excludes credits earned in summer and/or winter session classes.
Note: Students who receive an unsatisfactory grade in a five credit course will not be dismissed for excessive number of credits of "D" or "F" unless they have received those credits in three or more classes.
