11. Students at risk

Many first-year students experience academic difficulties, particularly during their first semester of university study. Students who fail two or more of the subjects attempted in their first semester or full year, or those whose performance was well below expectations, are required to discuss any problems and ways of improving their performance with a Faculty panel. These students will be notified as soon as possible after results are released and will be informed of the dates available for their panel interview. Attendance at this interview is required for continued enrolment in the Faculty. Students will not be permitted to continue in their next semester of study (including summer) if they have not attended this interview. The panel may make recommendations regarding strategies to improve academic performance, including making appointments to see a learning skills specialist from the Faculty Teaching and Learning Unit.
