Quality Point Deficit of less than 12:
It is mathematically possible for a student to return to good academic standing if the student has a good semester. A “good” semester generally refers to grades of ‘B’ or better in all coursework. Course repeats are weighted higher in terms of boosting a student’s GPA and as such are strongly encouraged. Students who have low grades in their major requirements should consult with their academic advisor.
Quality Point Deficit of 12 - 24:
Significant changes to academic performance are needed to recover from this quality point deficit range. Students will likely need at least two good semesters to return to good academic standing. A “good” semester generally refers to grades of ‘B’ or better in all coursework. Course repeats are weighted higher in terms of boosting a student’s GPA and as such are strongly encouraged. Students who have low grades in their major requirements should consult with their academic advisor.
Quality Point Deficit of 25+:
Students in this range are likely to be dismissed. Returning to good academic standing will likely take at least three semesters of coursework at Keuka College. A “good” semester generally refers to grades of ‘B’ or better in all coursework. Course repeats are weighted higher in terms of boosting a student’s GPA and as such are strongly encouraged. Students with a quality point deficit of 25 or higher are strongly encouraged to consult with their academic advisor or Provost’s Office to review ways to fulfill their academic goals.
