Subject to Dismissal
For "Subject to Dismissal" purposes, consecutive semesters are
based upon student's enrollment. If not enrolled during the Spring
semester, then Fall followed by Summer would be consecutive.
Progress: Students on progress probation will be subject to dismissal after two consecutive semesters of progress probation.
Academic: A student who is on academic probation shall be subject to dismissal when the students earned cumulative grade point average is less than 2.0 in all units attempted for two (2) consecutive semesters.

Dismissed
A student shall be dismissed when the
student's earned cumulative GPA is below
1.99 for three (3) consecutive semesters.
Standards for Dismissal
For purposes of this section, semesters shall be considered consecutive on the basis of the students enrollment pattern rather than the calendar pattern. For example, the semesters of a student enrolled fall, not spring, but again fall are considered to be consecutive.
A student who is on academic probation shall be subject to dismissal if the student earned a cumulative GPA of 1.99 or below in all units attempted in each of the three consecutive semesters which were graded on the basis of the grading scale.
A student who has been placed on progress probation shall be subject to dismissal if the percentage of units in which the student has been enrolled for which entries "W", "I", and "NC" are recorded in at least three consecutive semesters reaches or exceeds fifty percent (50%).
Readmission
Students who have been dismissed from Hartnell College or other accredited collegiate institutions may apply at the Admissions and Records Office for readmission after one semester of nonattendance. Students so applying may be readmitted after completing a petition and an educational plan with their counselor and the approval of the Vice President of Student Services.
Students readmitted who have a grade point average of less than 2.0 ("C") for the term immediately following readmission shall be dismissed from the College and not be eligible for readmission for a period of one academic year.
Note: Students readmitted after dismissal from Hartnell College or other accredited collegiate institutions may be restricted in the type of classes and the number of units taken.
In extreme cases in which dismissal resulted from extenuating circumstances, students ineligible for admission under the above regulations may appeal via the Vice President of Student Services, for specific consideration. Such extenuating circumstances shall be those acute medical, family, or other personal problems which rendered normal academic functioning unlikely or impossible.
