At the end of the semester, the Registrar will provide the appropriate dean a list of students who are not in good academic standing. The dean will review the student’s academic record and determine the academic status of these students. The dean will render a decision and provide a letter to the student to those students on probation or dismissed from the program.
Students who are academically dismissed may appeal their dismissal no later than 21 days before the date of receiving the outcome letter. All appeals will be submitted via the online Academic Suspension/Dismissal Appeals Form:
(https://cm.maxient.com/reportingform.php?UnivofPikeville&layout_id=26).
The appeal must detail why the student has failed to succeed academically and why the dismissal should be reversed. Academic Life Committee will review the appeal and render a final decision. The Committee is composed of academic deans, four faculty representatives, one from each college (College of Arts and Sciences, Coleman College of Business, College of Nursing and Human Services, Patton College of Education), the Dean of Students, and the Dean of Student Success. The Dean of Student Affairs will serve as the Chair. The appropriate academic dean will not have a vote for the status of their students since they rendered the initial decision. The committee will submit a final report no later than 48 hours after a decision to the Vice President.
