If the student has not achieved the minimum required qualitative and/or quantitative <br />progress, the student will be notified in writing that they are to be dismissed unless <br />the student files an appeal, and the appeal is approved. <br />Appeal Process and Probation* <br />The student may submit a written appeal of his/her dismissal within five calendar days of <br />his/her receipt of the dismissal notice. The appeal should be addressed to the <br />Executive/Dean. The appeal must be accompanied by documentation of the mitigating <br />circumstances that have prevented the student from attaining satisfactory academic <br />progress. Only extraordinary circumstances will be considered, such as death or severe <br />Illness in the immediate family. <br />*This policy does not apply to Veterans; Refer to Veterans Information Bulletin, <br />The Dean will assess all appeals and determine whether the student may be permitted to <br />continue on a probationary status, despite not meeting satisfactory progress requirements. <br />The student will be sent the written decision within 10 days of Learnet's receipt of the appeal. <br />The decision of the Executive/Dean is final. Students reinstated upon appeal are on <br />probationary status for the next quarter during which time they must meet the terms and <br />conditions set out in the Executive/Dean's Academic Plan included with the letter granting <br />the appeal. <br />At the end of the probationary quarter, and every quarter thereafter, the student's <br />satisfactory academic progress will be reviewed. The student may continue on probation as <br />long as he or she meets the terms of the Academic Plan. Once the student has re-established <br />satisfactory academic progress, the student will be notified in writing and removed from <br />probation within 90 days (lquarter), or within 30 days for short term program. If the student <br />fails to meet the terms of the Academic Plan within 90 days (lquarter), or within 30 days for <br />short term program, the student will be notified in writing by certified mail and dismissed <br />from the program. <br />The effect on SAP for all Grade Assignments are as follows <br />Last Revislon Date on <br />
