ACADEMIC STANDING AND APPEALS
Isothermal Community College is committed to helping each student succeed throughout their academic experience by providing clear expectations and support to help them achieve their goals. When a student seeks to appeal a final grade, they must follow the Grade Appeal Policy 05.02.05 and procedures.

Academic Standing
Guidelines may vary by program, e.g., Career and College Promise, Basic Law Enforcement Training (BLET), and health sciences. Information regarding academic standing guidelines by program is available in specific department areas.

Please note that overall academic standing may differ from academic standing for financial aid purposes. Students should contact the Financial Aid Office for information regarding their financial aid status and Satisfactory Academic Progress.

Probation for Unsatisfactory Academic Progress
Occasionally, students need help maintaining satisfactory academic standing at the college. They will work with their faculty mentor/college navigator to create a plan of success. For additional information, reference Probation Policy 05.02.06.

Academic Fresh Start
Any Isothermal Community College student who has experienced a lapse in enrollment at the college for a period of at least three consecutive academic years may petition in writing to have grades older than three years old and below “C” disregarded in calculating the GPA. For additional information, students may visit the Academic Fresh Start webpage, visit The Patriot Hub in room 32 of the Student Center, or complete the Academic Fresh Start application.
