Academic Standing for Undergraduate Students

The minimum grade point averages permitted for undergraduate students to be considered in good standing for each classification are as follows:

At the end of each semester, undergraduate students who fail to remain in good standing are placed on academic probation or suspension, as outlined on the Undergraduate Academic Standing Table below. Students may stay on academic probation for multiple semesters. Students are suspended after the semester on probation if both their cumulative GPA and semester GPA are below the class level requirement. If a student is on academic probation and their cumulative GPA remains below the class level requirement but their semester GPA is above the class level requirement, the student will remain on academic probation. Contact the Registrar’s Office for more information.

A student who is suspended is not allowed to enroll at NWU during the next semester or at any time in the future unless an appeal is granted by the Academic Standards Committee.
