To get off probation is easily explained, earn higher than a 2.0 cumulative GPA, and complete more than 50% of all units attempted. But if you are currently on Probation, how do you register? Well, the level of your probation status will dictate what you need to do to be given temporary access to register (add/drop) for courses.
Students on Level 1 Academic or Progress Probation are required to complete the State Center Community College District Online Probation Workshop.

- Level 2 Academic Probation (A2): "Level 2" Academic Probation occurs when you have earned a cumulative grade point average (GPA) below a 2.0 for two consecutive semesters.
- Level 2 Progress Probation (P2): "Level 2" Progress Probation occurs when you have not completed more than 50% of the courses you attempted for two consecutive semesters.
Resolution of Level 2 Probation:
To get off probation is easily explained, earn higher than a 2.0 cumulative GPA, and complete more than 50% of all units attempted. But if you are currently on Probation, how do you register? Well, the level of your probation status will dictate what you need to do to be given temporary access to register (add/drop) for courses.
Students on Level 2 Academic or Progress Probation are required to meet with a counselor and will be expected to set guidelines and complete:
- A Work-In-Progress form to be submitted to a counselor listing the student’s grades for the current term and verified with instructor signature, in order to receive approval to register for classes for the following term.
- A Retention Agreement form to identify student success strategies, establish registration guidelines, unit limitations, and course selections.
- Note: Completing the Online Probation Workshop will not clear the Level 2 probation hold.
Once a meeting with a counselor occurs, guidelines are set and/or documents are completed, the student will have restricted access to register (add/drop) courses.
Continuing Per Board Policy (CPBP): Students on CPBP are really on “Dismissal” status, but because of their satisfactory performance from the previous semester, the college will temporarily allow the student to register and continue to take courses. CPBP is really your last stand before potentially being dismissed, so “count your blessings” and make every opportunity count to earn A’s and B’s get back into “Good Standing”.
