Mahurin Honors College Good Standing Policy

Requirements for Good Standing in the Mahurin Honors College

Warning Semester Procedures

Students placed on warning semester have not met the 3.2 cumulative GPA
requirement
Warning Semesters are determined by a student’s overall cumulative GPA and are
evaluated at the end of every fall and spring semester.
To remain enrolled in the Honors College, students on Warning must earn a TERM GPA
that is higher than their cumulative GPA (example: a student with a 2.96 cumulative GPA
must earn a 2.97 fall or spring term GPA to remain in the Honors College for the next
semester)
Students remain on Warning until their cumulative GPA rises above 3.2.
There is no maximum number of semesters a student can be on Warning.
Students on a Warning Semester will be required to make an advising appointment to be cleared for priority registration.
It is the student’s responsibility to stay informed of their current standing within the Mahurin Honors College.
If a student’s GPA by the end of the current term does not equal a term GPA higher than their cumulative GPA, the student will be dismissed from the Mahurin Honors College.
If a student has been Academically Dismissed by Western Kentucky University, the student will be automatically dismissed by the Mahurin Honors College.
Students who have been dismissed from the Mahurin Honors College have the opportunity to be readmitted given their cumulative GPA has risen above 3.2.
- Students must go through the standard admissions process to be readmitted to the Mahurin Honors College.
