Academic Standing

During your time at Heartland, you will earn an academic standing after each semester. Academic standing is calculated after you have earned at least 9 credit hours.

Levels of Academic Standing

  • You will be in good academic standing as long as your cumulative GPA remains above the required minimum level based on your number of credit hours.
  • You will be placed on academic probation if your cumulative GPA falls below the minimum required based on your credit hours.
  • Once you are on academic probation, if you earn at least a 2.0 semester GPA in your next semester but you still don’t have the minimum cumulative GPA required, you’ll be placed on continuing probation.
  • If you are on academic or continuing probation and you do not earn at least a 2.0 semester GPA and your cumulative GPA remains below the required minimum, you will be dismissed. This means that you will need to sit out a required number of semesters before you will be allowed to come back and take more classes at Heartland.
