Conditions for Maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress

Students must pass 70% of all courses attempted, maintain a minimum cumulative 2.0 GPA and complete the whole program in order to get the diploma:

Students enrolled in our programs must maintain a minimum of 2.00 GPA at all times. Any student who fails to meet the satisfactory academic progress standards will be placed on a probationary period. During this probationary period, a student will continue to take the classes or set up some kind of review sessions. The student is removed from academic probation if he or she is making satisfactory progress at the end of a probationary period. Upon completion of the warning period or the training, if the minimum SAP standards are not achieved on the courses enrolled, then the student will be awarded a certificate of attendance instead of a diploma. If the student would like to re-enter the program to get a diploma, he or she will be required to retake the class at half the price and attain the hours and GPA required for satisfactory academic progress as above indicated. The student is removed from academic probation if he or she is making satisfactory progress at the end of a probationary period.
