New Start Policy

This policy is designed for former Â鶹´«Ã½ students with a severe cumulative honor point deficiency who have not attended Â鶹´«Ã½ for a minimum of three years.

  1. Former Â鶹´«Ã½ students who have not attended Â鶹´«Ã½ for at least three years may petition the Council on Admission, Graduation, and Academic Standards (CAGAS) to have prior grades excluded from subsequent grade point average calculations. Such appeals must be received and approved prior to the student’s reentry to Â鶹´«Ã½.
  2. All hours earned will count toward total hours for graduation.
  3. All students must have at least a C average in all Â鶹´«Ã½ courses counted toward the major and the minor for graduation.

The New Start provision may be exercised only once, and all grades that a student has received at Â鶹´«Ã½ will be used to determine class rank and honors. Any student under this policy must complete a minimum of 30 semester hours after returning to Â鶹´«Ã½ to qualify for graduation. All courses taken and grades earned will appear on the transcript.
