Academic Probation

Once a student has attempted 12 units within the San Mateo County Community College District (CSM, Cañada College, or Skyline College), academic standing is calculated each time grades are posted.

Academic Probation occurs when:

• Cumulative GPA is below 2.0
• Letter Grades (A, B, C, D, F and all +/- grades in between) affect the GPA

OR

• Completion rate is less than 51% of all attempted units
• A class is not completed if the recorded grading symbol is W, I, NP or NC
• EW's (Excused Withdrawals) do not affect completion rate or GPA

The first semester out of good academic standing is called Probation 1.
The second semester out of good academic standing is called Probation 2.
A third consecutive semester out of good academic standing results in Dismissal Status.

Being on probation does not prevent registration, but a student on probation must get back into Good Academic Standing to avoid Dismissal Status. Take the following actions now: 

• Work to ensure that you successfully complete all your current courses.
• Use resources on campus such as the Learning Center, Writing Center and Math Resource Center to facilitate your success.
  
• Sign up for the OnTRAC Scholars Program now for extra support.
