Standards of Progress

All Piedmont Technical College students must maintain a 2.0 semester/term and cumulative grade point average (GPA) to be considered in satisfactory academic standing.   It is the policy of Piedmont Technical College to require that grade point standards be maintained for continued enrollment.  The grade point standards are as follows:

A student whose cumulative grade point average (GPA) falls below the minimum scale described above will receive an academic warning.  A student who is placed on academic warning who does not earn the minimum cumulative GPA on the scale described above at the end of the next term of enrollment will be placed on academic probation and will be required to meet with an AP counselor or Registrar to complete an AP Contract Agreement Form.  A student on academic probation who does not meet the terms of the AP contract by the end of the next term of enrollment will be placed on academic suspension and the student will be suspended from attending classes for a minimum of one term.
