A student who has earned a GPA that falls below 2.0 at Amarillo College for two consecutive semesters will be placed on academic suspension (not to be confused with financial-aid suspension). When this happens, the student will not be allowed to re-enroll until they have laid out the following semester (Summer Session I & II are considered “a semester”). Exception: Should a student who is coded “On Academic Suspension” wish to continue their education and not lay out for the required “one semester,” they may participate in the Suspension Intervention Program.

 

Since you have been notified that you have been placed on academic suspension, the support staff at Amarillo College wants to provide professional intervention services that will empower you to have a successful college experience. It is our wish that you understand the value of making good choices, setting goals, and believing in yourself. Therefore, you are being given the opportunity to participate in this program rather than interrupt your educational studies. Good Luck!
 

Step 1  To participate in the program, check with the Advising Department, Student Service Center 130 or call 371-5440 for guidelines. ACE students need to call the Student Support Services Office at 371-5420. 

 

Step 3  Create your schedule which will include a study skills or other appropriate class.

Step 4  Meet at least two additional times throughout the semester with the advisor. These sessions will include goal setting, grade check, career exploration, academic planning, etc.

 

Step 5  Earn at least a 2.0 GPA for the semester.
