Hi Aska,
im currently a second year student who is on probation. i failed a course last fall and i took it again during summer time but i filed a petition for the final. i will write the deferred exam on dec 18th but im afraid that i will fail it again. so the question is that, if i fail the course again, would that count into my cgpa and get me on suspension?
sincerely, pony

Hey Pony,
If you fail the course again, yes, it will count towards your CGPA.
Now will that get you on suspension? Well, that depends. What’s your current CGPA like? And when we say “fail the course,” do we mean something along the lines of an “oh my god are you kidding me?!”-esque 48 or a “like what am I even doing…”-ish 27? (granted, the latter seems rather difficult to achieve).
Basically, what will get you suspended is failing to either get an annual GPA of 1.7 or a CGPA of 1.5. So whatever grade you on this course will count towards the summer session’s GPA and your current CGPA, which is where things get a little tricky. If you do fail and end up not meeting the requirments to stay in school, then you can potentially be pulled out of whatever classes you’re in right now, so I think it would be wise for you to make an appointment with your registrar’s office and discuss the matter more — just to be safe at least!
But good luck!
may the odds be ever in your favour,
aska
