The academic progress of all students is determined at the conclusion of each fall and spring semester. A student who does not attain a cumulative grade-point average (GPA) of 1.50 or more after a total of 15 semester hours have been attempted will be given a written notice of alert regarding satisfactory academic progress. If a cumulative GPA of 1.50 or more is not attained after a total of 30 semester hours, the student will be placed on Scholastic Probation. Students on probation may carry a maximum of 14 semester hours during a fall or spring semester. This maximum number of hours may be reduced by the Academic Dean in the interest of the student. If a student on Scholastic Probation takes short-term (summer) classes, the GPA will be checked at the end of the summer term to determine effect on the Scholastic Probation status.

Transfer students who enter a long-term (fall/spring) semester with the equivalent status of Scholastic Probation from their transfer institution continue on Scholastic Probation at Jacksonville College.
