ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS

Academic Suspension

Academic suspensions are given when a student's cumulative GPA is below retention level and/or is not making satisfactory progress for the degree. When a student is on academic suspension, he or she may not take course work at Montclair State University for one calendar year.

Students granted an academic suspension are eligible to apply for readmission through the Office of Admissions for the semester beginning one calendar year following the academic suspension. Readmission is not automatic. It is based on the probability of success in the chosen major and the availability of space.

Retention requirements after readmission from academic suspension are the same as those listed above for academic furlough.
