At the end of the semester in which the student’s GPA falls below 2.0 in all units attempted, a notice that the student is on probation shall be sent to the student informing him/her that he/she is on probation

A student who has enrolled in a minimum of 12 or more semester units at Barstow Community College shall be placed on progress probation when the percentage of all units enrolled, and for which entries of “FW,” “W,” “NP” and incompletes are recorded, reaches or exceeds 50%.

Academic Probation 1 means that you earned a cumulative GPA below 2.0 for one semester. ​

Progress Probation 1 means that you didn’t complete 50% or more of your units. In other words, you received a W, NP, NC, or I instead of a letter grade. ​

Academic Probation 2 means that for two consecutive semesters within the district, you earned a cumulative GPA below 2.0

Progress Probation 2 means that for two consecutive semesters within the district, you didn’t complete 50% or more of your units. In other words, you received a W, NP, NC, or I instead of a letter grade. ​

A student who is on academic probation shall be subject to dismissal if the student has earned a cumulative GPA of less than 2.0 in all units attempted in two consecutive semesters. A student who has been placed on probation shall be subject to dismissal if the percentage of units in which the student has been enrolled, for which entries of “W,” “I,” “NC,” and “NP” are recorded in two consecutive semesters, reaches or exceeds 50%. ​

If a student has previously been continued on probation after dismissal, but does not make significant academic progress (semester GPA of 2.0 and/or the percentage of units in which the student has been enrolled, for which entries of “W,” “I,” “NC” and “NP”, must be less than 50%), the student will be dismissed on level II status.

Good Academic Standing is if you took 12 or more units in a semester, earned a GPA of 2.0 or higher, and finished 50% or more of those units with grades other than W, I, NC/NP, well-done!

Your academic standing will be listed on your transcript. You can view your standing in your student portal by accessing your unofficial transcript. ​You will be notified by Barstow Community College when placed on probation or dismissal in writing or via email.
