Faculty allegations of academic dishonesty by a student will proceed as follows: (1) the parties involved in the dispute will first attempt to reach a solution on their own, and the resolution will be recorded in an Intellectual Honesty Form filed with the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs; (2) if the parties cannot reach a solution, then the faculty member will file a written Intellectual Honesty Form with the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. This written document must contain specifics of the complaint and provide a basis for the proposed sanction and will be reviewed by the appropriate department chair. (3) The Vice President for Academic Affairs will review all relevant information, confer with the faculty member and department chair, and make a final recommendation within ten business days of the formal receipt of the written complaint. **For other Academic Policies and Regulations, please consult the Albertus Magnus College Student Handbook on the College portal. Students should be particularly aware of Academic Regulations, Academic Misconduct, Non-Academic Misconduct, and the Appropriate Classroom Conduct Code. All such policies and regulations apply to day students as well as evening students in the accelerated degree program.
Cumulative Performance—Good Standing, Dean’s List, Academic Review, and Dismissal Good Standing To be in good standing a student must have a cumulative grade point average on all work attempted at Albertus Magnus College as indicated: Credits Attempted
Minimum Cumulative Average
1–34 35–60 6l–75 76–over
1.7 1.80 1.90 2.00
Dean’s List In order to be considered for the Dean’s List, accelerated degree program students must take a minimum of 12 credits for two consecutive mods (from August through December or from January through May) and achieve a minimum grade point average of 3.5 or 3.3 with no grade below B. Academic Review Academic Review is not considered to be a punitive measure but rather a serious warning to the student that the student’s future at the College is in jeopardy. The period of Academic Review is, therefore, a time to make the necessary academic improvement to regain good standing. Academic review for students attending Mod courses takes place in January (after Mods 1 and 2) and August (after Mods 3and 4). A student will be placed on Academic Review status for: 1. Failure to obtain the minimum average for good standing in the previous two mods 2. Failure to maintain a 2.0 cumulative average in one’s major field 3. Deficiencies (“F”s or “WF”s) in three courses in any two mods
