Retention Index (Qualitative Element)

The institutional policy applicable to students without Federal Financial Aid is the following:

Table A

Transferred Credit-Hours (1) Passed Credit-Hours at PUPR (2) Total Accumulated Credit-Hours Range (1+2) Minimum Grade Point Average (GPA)
    0-36 1.50/4.00
    37-72 1.65/4.00
    73-108 1.80/4.00
    109 and more 2.00/4.00

Transferred credit-hours will not be used to compute the grade point average, but they will be counted to determine the level or year to which the student belongs.

Maximum Time Allowed to Complete an Academic Degree
  Students must complete graduation requirements within a maximum time equivalent to 150% of the credit-hours required by the academic degree program in which enrolled.

Probationary and Suspension Status

  Students whose academic progress does not satisfy the qualitative elements will begin a probationary period that will not exceed two consecutive academic years before being suspended for one year. After suspension is effective, the student may return under a probationary status for a maximum period of one (1) additional academic year, at the end of which he/she may be suspended for a period of three academic years. The student may be admitted once again under a probationary status for one academic year. In the event he (she) does not succeed, he (she) will be permanently dismissed.
