Academic Standing Policy 200

This Policy defines how academic standing at Midwest Emergency Academy (MEA) is determined.

Academic Probation

References in this Policy to “cumulative GPA” include courses taken at MEA and will be evaluated halfway through any program or certification.

Academic probation means that the student is being warned of failure to make sufficient academic progress. Students who are on academic probation must earn at least a passing grade determined by course syllabus in order to continue enrollment with MEA. The student will remain on academic probation until achieving the minimum passing grade or higher. At that point, the student will return to academic good standing.

Academic Suspension

If a student on academic probation earns below a passing grade, the student will be placed on academic suspension. The student will not be allowed to enroll at MEA for 3 months. If the student incurs a subsequent academic suspension, the student will not be allowed to enroll at MEA for one calendar year. Special exemptions can be made by the Program Manager with approval from the President.

After the suspension period has ended, the student may return to MEA on academic probation and must maintain a passing grade until achieving academic good standing.
