A student, who has been required to withdraw for academic reasons, will not be considered for readmission to a program for a period of two (2) consecutive terms. After participating in academic advising regarding the return, the student may be granted readmission into the same program at the discretion of the Associate Dean of the program.
Certificate, Diploma, and Ontario Graduate Certificate Programs
Promotion and progression requirements are based on the principle that students must achieve a Cumulative Program Grade Point Average (CPGPA) of 60% to be eligible to graduate. Continuation of full-time study within a program is based on the academic achievement within the most recent term of study and based on Term Grade Point Average (TGPA). The following academic standings will be awarded:
|
Student Standing |
TGPA < 40% |
Required to Withdraw |
TGPA ≥ 40% and < 45% |
Level 2 Probation * |

When students are required to withdraw for academic reasons, they are eligible for re-admission following a period of two consecutive terms. In some cases, students may be recommended to an Interim semester program or allowed to study part-time after being required to withdraw. Students who have been required to withdraw for academic reasons will be placed on probation when they resume study and must clear the probationary requirements in order to continue to study. Failure to clear the probationary status at the end of the first term following readmission will result in permanent withdrawal from the program.
