DISMISSAL, NON-ACADEMIC
The School reserves the right to dismiss students from the program if they are found guilty of violations against The School community, the hospital community, or civil and/or criminal laws which are of such nature that the administration of The School of Nursing, and/or the Medical Center, deems dismissal to be warranted.

DISMISSAL, ACADEMIC
A student will be dismissed from the program when he/she:

1. Has been on academic probation for two consecutive semesters.
2. Falls within the Dismissal Range on the Quality Grade Point Scale.

   1. is not enrolled in a nursing course;
   2. has not been previously dismissed by the school, and
   3. has not had specific academic requirements levied by the Admissions Committee, will not be dismissed from The School for academic reasons.
