Academic probation

Academic probation

Academic probation is a trial period in which a student is given time to try to redeem failing grades or bad conduct. The student will be monitored closely for changes in grades. A student will be place probation during a period of low performance or bad conduct, and after the trial period, if the student's performance does not improve, expulsion will happen . Elementary and secondary schools are required (especially if one is at compulsory school age) to find an appropriate school since students have a right to an education. However, once a student is expelled from a college, it may be difficult to get into another college. If the student's performance improves sufficiently during the probationary period, the probation would be lifted.
