Student Success (Probation)
We are invested in your success at Crafton Hills College and strongly encourage you to do your best in your current classes.
It is essential that you earn passing grades and complete the courses you are currently enrolled in to avoid possible dismissal from Crafton at the end of each semester. State regulations will make any student who has been on Academic or Progress probation for two or more consecutive semesters ineligible for priority registration. We urge you to read the college catalog for detailed information regarding our policies and regulations on Academic or Progress probation.
Also, state regulations may make any student who is on Academic or Progress probation ineligible for some or all financial aid benefits. If you have extenuating circumstances, you have the option to appeal your academic status with the Financial Aid Department.
Probation / Academic Standing
A student shall be placed on probation if:
Academic Probation - The student has attempted at least 12 units and has earned a GPA below 2.0 for
all work attempted.
Progress Probation - The student has enrolled in at least 12 units and has received a "W", "I", or "NP"
in 50% or more of all units enrolled.
Students who are on probation will receive an email at their Crafton email account. Please check you student email account regularly.
Students placed on probation will have a future hold put on their account to prevent them from registering for the next semester. Learn how to remove your probation hold by reading below.
