[Oacrao-l] Reprieve Policy Interpretation and Implementation

[Armstrong, Pamla R.]

Ok, I will jump from the pan into the fire.  We would not approve the
reprieve because she now has an F since the semester for which she is
applying for the reprieve.    Not knowing this student's situation, if
she still have repeats available I would look to see if she does and, if
so, tell her to repeat the class for which she got the F and if gets a C
or better then she could apply and qualify for the reprieve.

Subject: [Oacrao-l] Reprieve Policy Interpretation and Implementation

 

Ok guys, here the situation.  Maybe you can tell me how you would handle
it.  This is a real situation which has divided camps and different
points of view.

 

A student returned to school in spring 2010 after having been away for
almost ten years.  She had a number of poor grades and especially in her
two semesters before readmission in 2010.  During the spring 2010
semester, she took twelve hours and successfully earned three B grades
and an A.  

 

She did not apply for the Academic Reprieve.  She clearly met the three
year out of school requirement, earned twelve hours with no grade lower
than a C and is pursuing a degree here.

 

The student signs up for two courses in the summer 2010 and withdraws
from one and fails the other.

 

Now the questions and your decision.

 

Does she get to use the Academic Reprieve or has she blown her
opportunity to apply it since she did not previously apply when she had
the grades and has since received a grade that does not meet the
requirements.

 

The two sides:

 

One side of the house says since she met the requirements, it does not
matter what happened after spring 2010 and that failure to apply for the
Academic Reprieve does not void her eligibility.

 

The other side says she must maintain successful grades of no lower than
a C until she requests and has the Academic Reprieve applied  to her
transcript.

 

How would you handle the situation at your institution?

 

Thanks for your responses.
