The University sets standards of academic performance that students are expected to maintain. Students failing to meet the minimum standards either are placed on probation or declared ineligible to reenroll, based on the cumulative grade point average.
Scholarship probation is determined twice each year: at the conclusion of Semester I and at the conclusion of the Summer Term. Students placed on academic probation are restricted to 12 to 13 hours per regular semester and are not eligible for active participation in any organization that represents the institution officially.
Academic eligibility is determined once a year, at the conclusion of the Summer Term for most undergraduate students. For students classified as special, eligibility is determined at the end of each enrollment period.
Any student who has been declared academically ineligible may not return to the University until one regular semester (Semester I or II) has elapsed. Following an absence of at least one regular semester, an ineligible student may petition the Academic Petitions Committee for readmission. (Petitions are available in the Office of the Registrar online at http://registrar.uindy.edu/.) Decisions for readmission will be based on evidence that the applicant is prepared to improve the quality of his or her work.
Academic probation and ineligibility are determined by total hours and minimum cumulative grade point average, or GPA, as indicated below.
| Academic Probation | Academic Ineligibility | ||
| Total Hours* | Cumulative GPA Range | Total Hours* | Minimum Cumulative GPA |
| 12-24 | 1.500-1.699 | 12-24 | 1.500 |
| 25-36 | 1.600-1.799 | 25-36 | 1.600 |
| 37-58 | 1.700-1.899 | 37-58 | 1.700 |
| 59 or more | 1.900-1.999 | 59-74 | 1.800 |
| 75-90 | 1.900 | ||
| 91 or more | 2.000 | ||
| * Total hours calculated in determining academic probation and/or ineligibility include (1) quality hours (hours recorded in graded classes), (2) transfer hours, and (3) hours earned by examination or portfolio. | |||
The academic recovery policy assists former undergraduate students in getting a second start in higher education. Any student who has been absent from the University for at least four calendar years may petition the Academic Petitions Committee to have all grades taken prior to the granting of academic recovery changed to NC (for grades of D+ or below) or CR (for grades of C- or above), thereby expunging the student's grade point average. Grades for all courses taken subsequent to the granting of academic recovery will be posted as submitted by the instructor and will be calculated into the student's new grade point average.
At the time the student is granted academic recovery, the registrar will enter a notation on the student's permanent record explaining the action and the policy. This notation will appear on all transcripts.
