Academic Probation
This information is specific to Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Fine Arts and Bachelor of Science students for the 2011/2012 academic year. Students in other degree programs should refer to their Faculty or School’s academic regulations policy in the calendar.
There are three levels of academic standing:
-
In Good Standing;
-
On Academic Probation; and
- Failed
UBC Okanagan has determined that a student shall be placed on Academic Probation under the following circumstances:
-
has taken 12 credits or more in the session and has either passed fewer than 65% of the credits, or has a session average of less than 55%
OR
- has taken less than 12 credits in the session and have either passed fewer than 50% of the credits, or has a term average of less than 50%.
Sessional evaluations take place after the Winter Session is complete and if you are placed on Academic probation you will be notified by email. The consequence of this standing is a limitation on your registration in the next winter session to no more than 9 credits in each of the two terms. Probation standing is not noted on your official UBC transcript.
