To re-establish eligibility a student must submit and have an approved appeal after completing a semester at Converse University without financial assistance. During the semester attended without financial assistance, a student must take at least 6 credit hours, complete 100% of the attempted hours and have at least a 2.0 term GPA.
Exceptions to this policy will only be allowed if the student encountered some type of extenuating circumstance during the probationary period that hindered the student from meeting the stipulations.
Examples of acceptable extenuating circumstances include prolonged hospitalization during the probationary period, death in the family during the probationary period, or other extenuating circumstances directly affecting academic performance. Because a student is aware prior to the probationary period that they must meet the stipulations, extenuating circumstances do not include being a single parent or working full-time while attending school.
Students are advised to solve difficulties prior to registering in a probationary period.
