An academic warning is a sanction issued by Nexford University if you fail to meet the minimum academic requirements of your program. After a warning, the next academic sanction is being put on probation.
You may be given a Warning if you:
- Maintain a term or cumulative grade point average (GPA) below the standard academic requirement of the program
- For the AAS and BBA programs, this is a GPA of 2.0 or better
- For the MBA program, this is a GPA of 3.0 or better
- Earn a passing grade in less than 67% (two-thirds) of the courses that you attempt in your program.
Receiving a Warning is a strong indicator that you need to devote more time to your studies. When given a Warning, you will have 2 months (excluding any leave of absence) to improve your academic performance. If you do not improve within this time, you may be escalated to Probation.
Make sure to follow the guidance of the Learner Success team and your Course Professor, especially the assignment feedback that they give you, to improve your academic performance. The next step after Probation is Dismissal, so you should take these interventions seriously to stay on track and meet your learning goals at NXU.
