PROBATION AND DISQUALIFICATION
ADMINISTRATIVE/ACADEMIC PROBATION
An undergraduate or graduate student may be placed on administrative–academic
probation by the Board of Appeals and Review for any of the following reasons:
- Withdrawal from all or a substantial portion of a program of studies in two successive
terms or in any three terms. (A student whose withdrawal is directly associated with a
chronic or recurring disability or its treatment is not to be subject to
administrative/academic probation for such withdrawal.)
- Repeated failure to progress toward the stated degree objective, or other program
objective (when such failure appears to be due to circumstances within the control of
the student).
- Failure to comply, after due notice, with an academic requirement or regulation which is
- routine for all students or a defined group of students.
ADMINISTRATIVE/ACADEMIC DISQUALIFICATION
An undergraduate or graduate student who has been placed on
administrative/academic probation may be disqualified from further attendance if:
- The conditions for removal of administrative/academic probation are not met within the
period specified.
- The student becomes subject to academic probation while on administrative/academic
probation.
- The student becomes subject to administrative/academic probation for the same or
similar reason for which he has been placed on administrative/academic probation
previously, although not currently in such status.
READMISSION OF DISQUALIFIED STUDENTS
Disqualified students may, after at least two semesters have elapsed, apply for
readmission to the university, provided they have removed the academic deficiencies,
or resolved the problems which may have caused the disqualification. The work taken to
eliminate an academic deficiency at this institution must be taken through the College
of Extended Learning, in either Winter Session, Summer Sessions, or Extension, in order to
impact the grade point average at this institution. If disqualification resulted from any
other reasons than academic performance, approval must be obtained from the unit of
the university which recommended the disqualification action. Students disqualified from
another institution, including other CSU campuses, may not be admitted to San Francisco
State unless it can be demonstrated that the cause of the disqualification has been
eliminated (additional course work with good grades, etc.) and the student is otherwise
eligible to return to the institution of disqualification. For additional information, see
section on readmission procedures.
