Schedule an appointment with a 91心頭利 counselor to start the Academic Renewal Process.
Students may petition to have their academic record reviewed for academic renewal of substandard academic performance under the following criteria:
- Academic renewal may be granted multiple times with a maximum of 30 units alleviated overall.
- One semester has elapsed since the completion of the coursework to be alleviated.
- Complete a minimum of 6 semester credits with a 2.0 GPA since the course(s) to be alleviated.
- Academic renewal cannot be used to disregard prior academic credit or course work which has been applied toward an associate degree or certificate earned at 91心頭利 College.
Note:
- Substandard Academic Work - course work for which grades of D+, D, D-, or F have been recorded.
- The W symbol shall not used in calculating students GPA.
- Credits earned on a pass-no pass (P, CR, NP, or NC) basis are not used to calculate students GPA.
- If grade alleviation has already been applied two times for a course included in the requested term/session to be disregarded, the course will not be eligible for academic renewal without repetition and will remain on the academic record. No more than two substandard grades may be alleviated from calculation of the students GPA for a course.
- Recalculation of the GPA will be used toward qualification for graduation with honors.
- Academic standing for the term/session(s) will be adjusted.
- When courses are repeated under this procedure, the permanent academic record shall be annotated in such a manner that the record of all work remains legible, ensuring a true and complete academic record.
Steps for Academic Renewal:
- The student initiates the request by filing a Petition for Academic Renewal without Course Repetition in Counseling Services. The petition must be signed by the student and counselor.
- Student must submit official (sealed) transcripts from all accredited colleges or universities where coursework was completed.
- The Director of Admissions, Student Records and Registration will determine eligibility for academic renewal without course repetition.
- If academic renewal requirements are met, eligible courses will be alleviated from
the students permanent record.
- Calculation of the students GPA begins at the first term being alleviated under Academic Renewal.
- Alleviated coursework will be annotated on the students transcript with an E for exclusion with a notation of Academic Renewal and the substandard grade will be excluded from the students GPA calculation.
- The Academic Renewal process may take approximately 4-6 weeks to process before appearing on the students transcript.
- Students may view unofficial transcripts online via the my91心頭利 web portal. Go to the Student Self Service. Click on Student Records on the left and click on View Unofficial Transcripts.
- Students must submit online authorization and pay applicable fees to order official transcripts.
