7.1 Academic Performance Evaluation for Degree Students
Academic Performance Evaluation as described in this section applies to Degree and Certificate Students. The corresponding process for Special Students is described in Section 9, below.
Note: in addition to the regulations listed below, a number of programs specify additional requirements that must be fulfilled. Consult 7.5 below for additional information regarding: B.A.S., B.Com., B.Hum., B.I.B., B.I.D., B.I.T. B.J., B.J.Hum., B.Math., B.Mus., B.P.A.P.M., B.Sc. Double Hons. Mathematics and Physics, B.S.W.
The Academic Performance Evaluation is the annual assessment of the student's status in his or her degree. The first evaluation is made, at the end of the winter term, for all students who have completed at least 4.0 credits at Carleton University or on the University of Ottawa Exchange once all final grades are available. Subsequent evaluations occur at the end of the winter term following the completion of a minimum of 4.0 additional credits. A completed course is any course registration, including repeated courses, that results in a grade or notation other than WDN, IP, CTN, AUD or DNC. The basis of the evaluation is the student's Overall CGPA, Major CGPA and, where appropriate, Core CGPA. For students in combined programs Major CGPAs are calculated for each major where possible. The evaluation is made by comparing CGPAs to the minima required by the student's degree at the time of the evaluation. The possible outcomes of an Academic Performance Evaluation are: Good Standing, Academic Warning, Suspension, Continue in Alternate, Continue in General, Dismissed from Program, or Debarment .
The status Good Standing signifies that a Performance Evaluation has found that the student fully meets the academic standards prescribed for the student's program and is eligible to continue in that degree.
The status Academic Warning signifies that the student's performance with respect to the academic standards of the degree is deficient. The student may continue in the degree but must clear the Academic Warning by achieving a Good Standing assessment at the next Academic Performance Evaluation.
The status Suspension signifies that the student must leave his or her degree for at least one year. See also Section 7.1.1 and Section 7.3. Suspension occurs if at least one of the following conditions applies:
- the student has an Overall CGPA that is less than 1.00;
- while on Academic Warning, the student has failed to achieve a Good Standing assessment at the next Academic Performance Evaluation;
- the student has exceeded the maximum allowable number of discredits for the program;
- the student was Admitted with Additional Requirements and has failed to satisfy those requirements.
The status Continue in General is applied at an academic performance evaluation (APE) if the student (i) is in an Honours B.A., B.C.S., B.Cog. Sc., B.Co.M.S., B.G.In.S., B.H. Sc., B.Sc., or B.Math. program, (ii) would be suspended at this APE due to a low CGPA, and (iii) meets or exceeds the minimum requirements for Good Standing in a general program. The student will have his or her program changed to the corresponding or other general program within the same degree and may apply to change this program within the degree, as long as the student would be in Good Standing in the subsequent program.
The statuses Continue in Alternate (CA) and Dismissed from Program (DP) indicate that the student's performance has fallen below a minimum standard for the program and in consequence the student is removed from the program, and is not readmissible to this program. These APE statuses are restricted to some professional and limited enrolment programs where there is high demand for the program and limited space in its required courses. The degrees and programs that use these statuses are: B.Eng., B.Hum., B.J., B.J.Hum., B.Com., B.I.B., B.I.D., B.P.A.P.M. The status CA or DP is assigned if any of the conditions for Suspension apply, in addition to any conditions set by the program. The status CA is assigned if, in addition, the student's Overall CGPA is at least 1.00. A student with status CA is eligible to continue at the university and may apply through Admissions Services for admission to another degree or to Special studies. The status DP is assigned if the Overall CGPA is less than 1.00. A student with status DP may apply for admission to Special studies only.
If a student satisfies the conditions for Suspended, Dismissed from Program or Ineligible to Return (no longer in use) at a performance evaluation in the student's current degree and the student has a previous decision of Suspended, Dismissed from Program or Ineligible to Return on the record in this or another degree or Special studies, then the student will be removed from the current degree with the standing Debarred. A Debarred student is not eligible for any studies at the university for at least three years. See Section 7.3, Readmission after Suspension or Debarment.
7.1.1 Discredits
If a course registration in any term results in a student exceeding the allowed number of discredits for the program, then the student will be Suspended, Continue in Alternate, Dismissed from Program, or Debarred as of the end of that term. This action is part of the Academic Performance Evaluation at the end of the winter term, but is not part of a general Academic Performance Evaluation after the summer or fall terms.
7.1.2 Three Failures of a Course (Engineering)
A student in the Bachelor of Engineering degree must leave the degree with the status Continue in Alternate or Dismissed from Program if the student fails one course on three occasions.
7.2 Assessment in Concentrations, Specializations and Minors
In conjunction with the Academic Performance Evaluation, additional averages are calculated for program elements. A CGPA is calculated over the courses contributing to any minor, concentration, specialization. These CGPA results are available for decisions on satisfactory or unsatisfactory performance in the program element. Students with a CGPA that is below the minimum required for a Concentration, Specialization or Minor may be removed from that Concentration, Specialization or Minor.
7.3 Readmission after Suspension or Debarment
Suspension is from a particular degree, not from the University altogether. Upon receiving notice of Suspension from one degree, students may apply immediately as Special students (non-degree students), or seek admission, through Admissions Services, to other degrees at the University for which they are eligible. In some circumstances, a student may be admitted on Academic Warning.
Students who have been Suspended will be inadmissible to their original degree for one year. Students who have been suspended and wish subsequently to be re-admitted to their original degree must petition through Admission Services, providing an explanation of the circumstances leading up to the Suspension, what has occurred during the period of suspension, and the student's new academic goals. See also 4.9.1 (d) for certain special cases.
Debarment is from all studies at the University. After debarment, students wishing to be considered for readmission to a degree program must wait three years and then make an appeal to the Faculty Committee on Admissions and Studies. On readmission after debarment, students may be required to complete certain specific courses and to forfeit certain previously completed credits in order to provide a reasonable expectation of success. The CGPA will be based upon successful and unsuccessful credits accepted upon readmission.
Students returning to the University after suspension or debarment will not have their CGPA re-started. At the point of re-admission, they may be allowed up to 2.0 credits of additional discredits.
7.4 Minimum CGPA Requirements
The standard CGPA requirements used in the Academic Performance Evaluation are presented in Table 1. The minimum required CGPA increases with the number of program credits (see Note 1) at the time of the Academic Performance Evaluation. Students with a CGPA close to the minimum at their first assessment will have to improve their academic grades significantly in order to maintain the Good Standing status through to graduation.
The Standard Minimum CGPA Requirements for Minors, Concentrations, and Specializations are presented in Table 2. These are not used in the Academic Performance Evaluation but may be used to determine whether a student can continue in a particular minor, concentration or specialization.
Table 1: Minimum CGPA Requirements for Good Standing Status
| Program credits completed | Honours | Architecture (Design), B.I.D. programs | Engineering programs | 15.0 credit General | 20.0 credit Major, B.I.T. |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Graduation | Overall 5.00 Major 6.50 | Overall 4.00 | Overall 5.00 | Overall 4.00 Major 4.00 | Overall 4.00 Major 4.00 |
Note:
- The Program Credits are the course credits earned by the courses the student has completed, with either a passing or a failing grade, that would contribute to the credits required for graduation in the student's program had they been passed. The program credits include credits obtained through transfer, advanced standing, letters of permission or exchange. The program credits do not include courses from which the student has withdrawn.
- Certain Honours programs may have different minimum Overall or Major CGPA requirements from those indicated above.
