A Dean\u2019s hold is placed on a student\u2019s record when his\/her GPA is below 2.0 in a semester. The student is placed on Warning for the semester, and it is normally recommended that these students do no more than three (3) courses until their GPA increases to 2.0 or above.<\/p>\n

Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Create an Academic Plan<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

If your GPA is less than 2.0 for two (2) consecutive semesters, you will be placed on RTW (required to withdraw) and must sit out one year before applying for re-admission when applications reopen.<\/p>\n

If you wish to appeal the RTW you may email the Deputy Dean for Undergraduate Studies, Dr. Regan Deonanan at Regan.Deonanan@sta.uwi.edu<\/a>. This process is a lengthy one that requires several levels of approval (Deputy Dean – UG 4Deputy Principal4Examination Section).<\/p>\n
