Academic Progression

Students who withdraw or receive a D or F in any nursing course may repeat the course one time only and with the following conditions:

1. The student must meet with course faculty to discuss the circumstances of his/her course failure.
2. Petitions for appeal of a course grade/failure may be made to the college Student Review and Appeals Committee. See college catalog for the grade appeal process.
3. It is the student‘s responsibility to initiate a request for readmission to the program. The request should be submitted to the Dean of the program. The Dean will solicit a recommendation from course faculty and other appropriate sources.
4. If the Dean‘s determination is favorable, the student may be given an opportunity to repeat the nursing course as space is available.
   • Sixteen third semester positions are dedicated to qualified advanced standing applicants each semester.
