Notifications will appear on your student transcript, which will reflect your academic standing.

Students who have completed 24 credit hours or more at the point of assessment and have a DGPA less than 2.0 will be assessed as “On Probation” and will be placed on probation.
Students assessed “On Probation” who do not achieve a minimum Term GPA (TGPA) of 2.0, upon subsequent registrations, will be assessed as “On Suspension” and will be suspended from the Faculty of Science. The duration of the suspension, along with the notation on the transcript, will depend on whether this is a first or a second suspension.
