Academic Standing

A student is considered in good standing if his or her Grade Point Average is 3.0 or higher. Students in good standing are eligible to continue their courses at Mount Saint Mary College.

A student may be placed on probation by the Academic Standards Committee. Among the factors the committee shall consider when reviewing a student's progress are:

  1. failure to fulfill entrance conditions related to federal and/or state mandates or National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education requirements;
  2. failure to maintain a GPA of 3.0 or higher; or
  3. failure to attain satisfactory grades in courses required in the graduate program in which the student is enrolled (see graduation requirements for the respective graduate programs).
