Note: Students also must maintain a minimum 2.0 GPA in the courses attempted at the University that are specifically required or to be applied toward their major. The GPA requirements may vary depending upon the major. Always refer to specific department for details. Any student failing to achieve a semester GPA at or above 2.0 will be placed on academic warning. Any student with a semester GPA below 2.0 may be subject to academic review and dismissal from the University. See the Academic Dismissal section in this chapter.

*Hours attempted include UT hours that are ungraded, i.e., courses taken for S/U, audited courses and failed courses. The Academic Appeals Committee reserves the right to review for academic dismissal students who have attempted fewer than 17 hours.
