Academic probation means that any one of your overall cumulative GPA, quarterly GPA, engineering GPA, or upper-division engineering GPA has fallen below a 2.0. The School of Engineering will send you a letter should your quarterly GPA fall below a 2.0. This will probably be your first notification that you are on academic probation. Students that are on academic probation are given a contract to follow. Failure to satisfy the terms of the contract is grounds for disqualification from the School of Engineering and UCI. Students are strongly advised to meet with an academic counselor at the first sign of academic trouble. Problems identified early are often easily dealt with.
