You don't have to sit out an entire semester

Students who are academically suspended may continue their enrollment without sitting out a semester by choosing to participate in the Contractual Readmission Program (CRP) offered through the Center for Student Success and First Year Experience (CSSFYE). This program was instituted due to significant changes in Federal Financial Aid Regulations and the elimination of the “second Pell Grant” many students used to fund their summer enrollment. The CRP provides an alternative to the summer option and allows students to continue their enrollment without disruption.

The CRP offers additional support to students but requires a higher level of commitment and academic performance in return. This option is available only to students who are academically suspended, not dismissed, and requires an application process. As a general rule, applications must be submitted at least two weeks prior to the start of the spring/fall semester, but please follow the posted deadline.

Program Components

Students who choose to participate in the Contractual Readmission Program can benefit in the following ways.

To be adequately prepared, students should meet with their academic advisor prior to meeting with a CRP consultant. 

After reviewing past performance, CRP consultant will work with each student to review their course load to help ensure that it supports a balanced schedule. Semester course loads will be limited to 16 credit hours with a minimum of 12 credit hours and will be managed via a Contractual Readmission Program hold.

Like all students returning from academic suspension or dismissal, students participating in the CRP will register for Fundamentals of Active Learning, a 2-credit graded course. This course guides three aspects of students’ academic behaviors, listed below:
  • Weekly Homework Assignments – Students will be required to submit weekly homework to their instructor.
  • Weekly Meetings – Students will be required to meet weekly for their course. The purpose of these meetings are to monitor students’ academic performance and motivation levels that could negatively impact grades and progress towards graduation.
  • Dedicated Study Time – Students are highly encouraged to develop a regular study routine that supports routine classroom preparation.
  • Planner Checks – Students will be required to complete weekly planner checks. This will count towards the final grade.

Students who choose to participate in the Contractual Readmission Program must agree to certain standards of academic performance:

  • Higher Semester GPA – Students must earn a semester GPA of 2.2 or above while participating in the program. This higher standard will help students achieve good standing in a more timely manner and matches the requirements held by the Office of Financial Aid. If the student earns between a 2.0 and a 2.19 semester GPA then they will need to repeat the course a second time. If the student earns less than a 2.0 semester GPA they will be placed on academic dismissal, regardless of whether or not they passed EDHE 202.
  • Successful Completion of EDHE 202 – Students must enroll in and successfully complete EDHE 202 (a grade of C or higher) as a condition of the CRP.
