Standards of Progress
Finger Lakes Community College requires students to maintain a standard of progress to keep matriculation in a degree program and eligibility for financial aid. Good academic standing is important to all students. In order to be in good academic standing and to be making academic progress toward a degree or certificate, a student must meet a minimum cumulative grade point average according to the table below. At least once each semester, students should meet with their faculty advisor or with a staff member in the Office of Academic Advising, Career and Transfer Services to review their academic progress.
If the standard of progress is not achieved at the intervals noted below, a student will be placed on academic probation. A student who fails to meet the College’s Standards of Progress for two semesters in succession is not in good academic standing and may be academically dismissed from FLCC.
