Students need to maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00 in any trimester to be in Good Academic Standing.
Students should complete the program within the maximum candidature, which refers to the normal candidature as stated in the degree requirements of each program plus two years (6 trimesters) of extension. In addition, the credit hours attempted* by student cannot exceed 1.5 times the credit hours required to complete the program.
Students who are unable to fulfil all degree requirements by the end of the extension period or fail to complete their degree program within the maximum attempted credits allowed, and would like to complete the studies, must submit a letter of appeal to Provost and respective SIT Program Leader for approval. Approval may be granted based on students’ overall academic performance and availability of students’ remaining modules.
*Refers to any credit that is awarded a final letter grade (“A+” [or 5.0 grade points] to “F” [or 0 grade points]). Credits earning a “W” is not considered attempted credits for the purpose of calculating GPA.
