Unsatisfactory Performance
Students who do not make satisfactory academic progress will be dropped from the accounting program. In addition to University regulations concerning unsatisfactory performance, the School will exclude students from the accounting program for each of the following reasons:
- The student earns two grades below "C" in accounting courses numbered 3000 and above regardless of whether the student was in the Fisher School of Accounting at the time they earned those grades.
- The student’s cumulative grade point average on all coursework completed at the University of Florida grade point average falls below 2.0 and remains there after one subsequent term of enrollment.
- The student’s cumulative junior/senior grade point average falls below 2.0 and remains there after one subsequent term of enrollment.
- The student’s accounting grade point average, calculated on all attempts of required accounting courses numbered 3000 and above, falls below 2.0 and remains there after one subsequent term of enrollment.
- The student withdraws from the University three times after admission into the Fisher School of Accounting.
- The student fails to complete a required junior/senior level accounting course for two consecutive semesters of enrollment.
-
For purposes of all of the above policies, the following rules apply to the definition of a term:
- Any term for which a student registers for courses at the University of Florida counts as a term of enrollment, even if the student subsequently withdraws from the term (after the drop/add period).
- Summer registration is viewed as registration for one term, (e.g., whether a student registers for Summer A alone, or registers for Summer A and Summer B and C, the student is considered to have registered for one term).
- Refer to the University undergraduate catalog for a discussion on grade point average computations.
