The Committee on Academic Standards reviews the progress of each student toward graduation at the end of each semester and may place a student on academic probation or ask a student to withdraw if it is found that he or she is not making minimal progress toward graduation.

To meet the number of courses necessary for graduation, the normal expectation is that a student will complete credits at the rate of four per semester for eight semesters.

In order to maintain good academic standing at The College of Wooster, any student regularly enrolled as a degree candidate must meet the following criteria:

1. Earn at least three full course credits in any semester;

2. Earn at least seven full course credits in two consecutive semesters;

3. Maintain a semester and cumulative grade point average of 1.75 for semester one, 1.80 for semester two, 1.85 for semester three, 1.90 for semester four, 1.95 for semester five, and 2.0 for semester six and thereafter until graduation.

A student who does not meet these criteria will be judged to be making less than satisfactory progress toward graduation. Whether a student is asked to withdraw or is placed on academic probation will depend on the extent of the deficiency. A student who is placed on academic probation for two consecutive semesters, and who is deemed not to be making satisfactory progress toward a degree, may be withdrawn.

RULES FOR READMISSION

Any person who has voluntarily withdrawn from The College of Wooster or has been required to withdraw from The College of Wooster is eligible to apply for readmission upon completion of a formal application for readmission, the form for which may be secured from the Office of the Deans. The completed application, including any necessary transcripts, references, and/or medical/counseling statements, must be received by the Office of the Deans at least one month prior to the beginning of the semester in which the person wishes to re-enter the College.

VETERANS' EDUCATION

The College is fully accredited under the laws that provide educational benefits for veterans. Specialized military courses are considered for credit on the basis of the recommendations of the American Council on Education as contained in "A Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services." Such credit is allowed only for courses which fit into the curriculum offered by the College. The Registrar is the College's certifying official.
