  2. the student fails to achieve a passing grade in any required secondary piano course, either by not enrolling or by earning the grade of F; or
  3. the student completes fewer than the required 14 credit hours (including ensemble) in the fall or spring semesters.
An undergraduate student will be placed on academic probation after any semester in which
  1. the student's semester or cumulative GPA falls below 2.0; or

A student who has had two consecutive semesters of academic problems may also be placed on academic probation, at the recommendation of the director of undergraduate studies. To be removed from academic probation, a student must meet the terms specified by the School of Music. Students on academic probation are not eligible for financial aid from the School of Music.

An undergraduate student will be subject to dismissal from the school when

  2. the student does not fulfill the terms of academic probation; or
