Dismissal

Students who are placed on Academic/Progress Dismissal for Fall 2024 are sent a letter notifying them.

Dismissal status is defined as follows:

  • Academic Dismissal—When a student’s cumulative GPA is less than 2.0, after completing twelve (12) units or more, and is on academic probation for two consecutive semesters.
  • Progress Dismissal—When a student has been on progress probation for at least two consecutive semesters and the percentage of units which have entries of “W”, “I”, “NC”, “NP” equals or exceeds fifty percent.

Once dismissed, a hold will be placed on the student’s account preventing them from further registration.  

Students may submit a Petition for Readmission to be eligible to enroll for Fall. For readmission consideration, return this petition and all supporting documentation to the Admissions and Records Office (ascommittee@cerritos.edu) before Friday, August 16th, 2024 . This deadline will not be extended. 
 
If students have already enrolled into Fall 2024 courses, they can stay enrolled into those courses. However, students will NOT be able to add additional courses without submission of the Petition for Readmission. Keep in mind, petitions will be reviewed and a determination will be made on a case-by-case basis.    
 
If students decide not to enroll into any classes for Fall 2024, please make sure to re-apply for Spring 2025. 
 
Students should consider meeting with a counselor to review their academic standing and discuss further options.
