    Students Evaluation
    • Good Standing:

    - Students with SGPA>=2.0 and CGPA>=2.0 are said to have good standing.

    - A student who gets an SGPA less than 2.00 in the fall or spring semesters can
    only register for 12 credit hours in the subsequent spring or fall semesters.

    • Probation: Except the 1st semester, students receiving SGPA and CGPA less than 2.00
    will receive an academic warning and are prevented from registering for more than 12
    credit hours in the subsequent semester
