3. First-time university students who have been fully admitted will be considered in good standing for the first fall and spring semesters of enrollment, unless their records are tagged for one of the reasons listed in section 2.
4. A student who has been placed on academic suspension will not be considered in good standing, regardless of whether the student is allowed to re-enroll, until the student attains a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 or higher.
5. The Dean of Enrollment Management is responsible for the good standing designation and reporting.
