Academic Dismissal
The College reserves the right to dismiss a student who fails to make reasonable progress toward the completion of the degree and the program in which the individual is enrolled. When considering dismissal, the Academic Standards Committee will review the factors stated under Academic Standing, as well as whether a student has incurred probation. The committee will inform the student in writing of her/his dismissal and ineligibility to take further courses. The student may submit a written appeal of the dismissal decision within two weeks to the AVPAA, as chair of the college's Appeals Committee.
The College also reserves the right to dismiss a student at any time if individual conduct does not conform to its spirit and standards.
Students who are allowed to enroll at Mount Saint Mary College are considered in good academic standing and are so certified by Mount Saint Mary College for financial aid programs. Students who are academically dismissed are no longer in good academic standing, and thus are no longer certified by Mount Saint Mary College as eligible for financial aid programs.
