Academic Probation

A student whose cumulative GPA is less than 2.0 at the end of a Fall, Spring, or Summer semester for which the student is enrolled will be placed on Academic Probation. A student on Academic Probation is notified of this status through NCTC email as well as on both official and unofficial NCTC transcripts. Students on Probation will also need to meet with an Advisor/Success Coach to enroll in their next semester of classes, and are added to the Academic Reset Canvas course which offers informational modules regarding campus resources, success strategies, advising/coaching guidance, and more!

A student will remain on Academic Probation if the student’s semester GPA exceeds 2.0 but the cumulative GPA is below 2.0. If at any time a student’s cumulative GPA is above 2.0, then the student will subsequently be released from Academic Probation.

A student on Academic Suspension from another college or university (as noted on the student’s official transcript) will be required to submit an appeal to the Admissions Office of NCTC in order to be eligible for enrollment. If approved for enrollment, this student will automatically be placed on Academic Probation status at NCTC, and therefore MUST earn a GPA of at least 2.0 in the first semester at NCTC in order to avoid moving to Academic Suspension status.
