Academic Probation
According to NU Academic Policies and Procedures (APP):
a student meeting satisfactory academic progression as defined herein, and having a CGPA of 2.00 or above and a GPA in the current semester of 2.00 or above is considered to be in good academic standing. A student who fails to maintain Good Academic Standing based on GPA will be placed on Academic Probation.
If you do not have the required 2.00 minimum semester and cumulative GPA when grades are posted, you will be placed on academic probation. This is a C average.
Impact of the Academic Probation
- Losing a stipend (less than GPA 2.33)
- Delay in graduation
- Additional cost of education (5th year if allowed)
- May change your desired major/career path
