Academic Suspension & Dismissal

Students are expected to maintain satisfactory academic performance throughout their studies. If a student fails to meet the minimum academic requirement (e.g., a GPA of 4.0 or its equivalent), they may be placed on academic probation. A student placed on probation must demonstrate improvement within the following term.

If a student remains below the required academic standards after probation, they may be suspended from the program.
Students may apply for readmission once, subject to review. If granted, they will return under academic probation.
A student who fails to meet the required academic progress after readmission will be permanently dismissed and will not be eligible for further reinstatement.
