Student Policy and Procedures

 

 

ACADEMIC EXCLUSION

Parkland College recognizes that students may return to the college after an absence of at least two years and be seriously encumbered by a prior academic record that is exceptionally poor, i.e., consisting primarily of D and F grades. The college further recognizes that for a variety of reasons, a student’s prior record may not accurately represent the student’s current abilities and commitment
to education. Possible reasons for the poor previous performance may include, but not be limited to, immaturity, personal crisis, or unclear
vocational/educational goals.

In such cases, the college acknowledges that it may be reasonable to exclude all of the prior academic record from the computation of the student’s cumulative
grade point average. For further information, contact the Office of
Admissions and Records, room A167.
