Academic Standing is based primarily on your cumulative grade point average (CGPA), but may also be affected by your term grade point average (TGPA). Academic Standing is assessed in January for the Fall term, in May for the Winter term, and in September for the Summer term; this determines whether you will be allowed to continue your studies in the next term and whether any conditions will be attached to your registration.
Decisions about Academic Standing in the Fall term are based only on grades that are available in January. Grades for courses in which you have deferred examinations and Fall-term grades for courses that span the Fall and Winter terms do not affect your Academic Standing for the Fall term, even though they will ultimately affect your Fall TGPA. Therefore, Academic Standings for the Fall term are designated as 鈥淚nterim.鈥澨齀nterim Standing decisions are mentioned below only if the rules for them differ from those for regular Standing decisions.
If you are not in Satisfactory Standing, you are strongly advised to consult with an Academic Adviser in the BCom Student Affairs Office about your course selection before the withdrawal deadlines.
