Academic Probation

Students are placed on Academic Probation when their UGA cumulative grade point average is below 2.0 for two or more consecutive terms.

Students on Academic Probation are assigned a Degree Completion Team to help explore strategies for success and to connect students with helpful campus resources. The DCT includes the student's Academic Advisor, the CAES Academic Coach, and a Case Manager from the Office of Student Care and Outreach. The DCT is invested in student success and wants to help students achieve their academic goals. Students are required to meet with their DCT within the first six weeks of the semester following Academic Probation. A representative from the DCT will contact students on Academic Probation to schedule their meeting.

Please be aware that students on Academic Probation will be placed on Academic Suspension unless they meet the following minimum requirements:

• If enrolled at UGA, you must complete at least 6 semester hours of coursework graded A-F during fall or spring semester, or 3 semester hours in summer.
  • Courses in which grades of W, V, I, S, U, or NG are received do not count toward these minimum hours.
• You must earn a minimum term GPA of 2.25.  The term GPA is the average of all your grades for the current term of enrollment.

Students scheduling follow-up appointments with the CAES Academic Coach are required to fill out this form prior to making an appointment in SAGE. Meetings are by appointment only.
