Students who fail to complete a cumulative GPA of 2.0 and a completion rate of 67% will immediately be placed on Warning. While being on Warning does NOT prevent you from registering or receiving aid, it does serve as a warning to begin taking steps necessary to turn your academic record around.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact your advisor at advising@dctc.edu or 651-423-8397.
A student in warning status must achieve a cumulative GPA of 2.0 AND 67% completion in their next semester of enrollment to regain good academic standing. Failure to reach these cumulative requirements will result in suspension.
