Academic Progress Policies:

Students in the Bachelor of Applied Science in Health Services Administration (HSA) program must meet the following standards of academic progress:

• Students must maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0 in upper-division courses. Failure to maintain this standard will initially result in a registration flag. A registration flag suspends the student's right to register for further upper-division courses without advisor permission. Failure to restore the student's GPA to a 2.0 will result in removal from the program. A minimum GPA of 2.0 is required for graduation.
• Upper-division course grades below 'C' will not count towards degree completion. Any course receiving a grade of 'D', 'F', 'W' or 'I' must be successfully completed within the next two terms, earning a minimum grade of 'C.'
• Upon receiving a second grade of 'D', 'F', 'W' or 'I' in any upper-division coursework, a registration flag will be placed on the student's records. Appeals may be made to the Program Lead Faculty.
• Students will remain in good standing when earning a grade of 'D', 'F', 'W' or 'I' in less than 20% of upper-division courses attempted/completed. For example, a student enrolled in 15 credit hours (five 3-credit hour courses) is allowed a 'D', 'F', 'W' or 'I' in one course. Students exceeding this allowance will receive a registration flag. Furthermore, students exceeding this allowance for two consecutive semesters will be removed from the HSA program. Appeals may be made to the Program Lead Faculty.
• A grade of XF for academic dishonesty will result in removal from the program. Appeals may be made to the Program Lead Faculty.
• A minimum of two courses per academic year are required to remain in the program. Students not successfully completing two courses per academic year are considered not actively pursuing an HSA degree and will be removed from the program. It is recommended that students meet with a Santa Fe College Business Programs' Advisor at least once a semester. Students are responsible for keeping advisors up to date on any issues that may hinder successful academic progress.

Definitions:

Upper-division: courses numbered in the 3000 and 4000 level category.

Registration Flag: a student's right to register for further upper-division courses will be suspended, pending advisor approval.

Appeals: a registration flag or program year removal appeal may be made in writing to the Program Lead Faculty, indicating sufficient evidence of unusual hardship which proved to be the proximate cause of a failure to maintain satisfactory academic progress.

• Students must apply for graduation upon enrollment in their last semester of coursework.
• Student Conduct Code
