Dean's Honor List
Students who in any quarter complete a minimum of 12 units
for letter grades with grades of a B or better, and who average
3.5 GPA or better for that quarter, will be placed on the
Dean's Honor List. This honor is noted on your official UCR
transcript and acknowledged by a congratulatory letter from
the Associate Dean of the College.
If you are on the Dean's Honor List for all three quarters
in an academic year, you will be placed on the Chancellor's
Honors List.
Minimum Progress
Grades provide a qualitative measure of scholarship while
the cumulative unit load provides a quantitative measure
of scholarship. Undergraduates in the College are subject
to the following standards of minimum progress. If a student
does not pass at least 24 units during any three consecutive
quarters, registration may be blocked and the student will
have to return to full-time status for the following quarter.
Work completed in summer session on other campuses of the
University and at other institutions is not counted toward
satisfaction of minimum progress standards on this campus.
Students who are on financial aid, whether state or federal,
will have to average at least 36 units over the academic
year (including Summer Session) in order to remain fully
eligible for continued aid and should check with the Office
of Financial Aid in case of doubts. This is especially important
for students receiving VA support.
Academic Probation
Good academic standing requires a minimum 2.00 grade point
average (GPA) for work taken at the University of California.
Students who fall below a 2.0, either at the end of any quarter
or for the total graded courses taken in the University,
are placed on academic probation. These categories are indicated
clearly on your transcript.
Read the letter. In addition, you will receive a
letter from the Associate Dean. It will explain any limitations
on your enrollment and will require:
- Enrollment in only 12-14 units
- No S/NC grading
- No Internships (198I's/198G's)
- No Incomplete grades
- Minimum GPA of 2.33 for the quarter
If you are not following the above conditions, adjust your
schedule or make an appointment to talk to your advisor. If
the letter requires you to complete and sign a contract, MAKE
AN APPOINTMENT TO DO SO with your departmental advisor immediately.
Academic Disqualification and Reinstatement
If your GPA in any quarter falls below a 1.50 or, if after
two terms on academic probation, your GPA is less than 2.00,
you are "Subject to Dismissal." If you receive
a letter of dismissal and wish to appeal the decision, please
complete the Petition to Appeal Academic
Dismissal.
If you are dismissed, it does not necessarily translate
into a permanent separation. Pick up a copy of the College's
Guide to Academic Success to learn what is required of you
before reinstatement can be considered. This is often possible
after a year's strong academic performance at a community
college or UCR Extension. After you have met the requirements
for reinstatement, file an Application for Readmission at
the Office of the Registrar at least six weeks before the
beginning of the quarter you wish to return and have your
official transcripts sent to Undergraduate Admissions. |
