Dismissal
Students are dismissed from the university when they have been suspended
previously and in any subsequent term their term and institutional GPAs areboth
below a 2.0. Any student who is dismissed is prevented from enrollment at the
university. However, after one full calendar year, a dismissed student may
petition for readmission. A student seeking readmission following dismissal must
complete a Clayton State University Application for Readmission and a
ReadmissionAppeal form. Theappropriate forms and all documentationmust be
submitted to theRegistrar’sOffice by the published deadlines. It is expected that
a student who is applying for readmission following dismissal will have resolved
the problem(s) that led to the dismissal and be able to provide compelling
evidence of the ability to earn a degree at Clayton State University. Such
evidence should include college level coursework or degrees completed at other
institutions. If readmission is granted, enrollment will be on a restricted basis.
Students readmitted following dismissal will be dismissed permanently if their
term and Institutional GPA fall below a 2.00 again. Students who are reinstated
following their first dismissal may be required to meet with a special academic
advisor.
LearningSupport Requirements
The Learning Support Program, coordinated by the Center for Academic
Success, offers college preparatory instruction in basic skills areas of written
communication, mathematics, and reading. Learning Support courses are
not
applicable to any degree programs offered by the University; however, they do
constitute prerequisites that Learning Support students must satisfy before they
are fully accepted intodegreeor certificateprograms.
Students in the limited and nontraditional student admission categoriesmust
take the entry examination (COMPASS) to determine whether they will be
admitted to Clayton State and required to take Learning Support courses in
English, reading, and/ormathematics.
Students who score high enough on the placement examination will be
exempt from some or all Learning Support courses; students whose scores
indicate the need for pre-college coursework will be required to take the
appropriate courses. Any combination of the following courses may be required
ENGL 0099, READ 0099, MATH 0097, andMATH0099. If students are required
to enroll in Learning Support course(s) in one or two of the three subject areas
