An undergraduate student on academic probation whose cumulative and semester GPAs fall below a 2.0 will automatically be dismissed from his/her program and the university.
The student has 10 business days after receipt of the dismissal notice to appeal the decision.
Please note that if you were enrolled in the upcoming semester, your classes have been dropped.
The dismissal appeal form will ONLY be available on MyFIU. See Access MyFIU for help.
