Explanation of Academic Performance

To appeal your academic suspension, answer the following questions and provide appropriate documentation to verify any extenuating circumstances described in your written appeal.

1. Academic suspension occurs only after several quarters in a row of poor academic performance. What were the factors that caused you to experience several quarters of poor academic performance? Describe in specific detail both your own choices and any extenuating circumstances that impacted your academic standing.

2. What has changed related to the above issues and what adjustments will you make to ensure a more successful academic performance in the future? What is your proposed plan for achieving good academic standing and which individuals and/or support programs will you work with to help you improve your academic performance if you are reinstated to CWU? (Be very specific.)

During this meeting, I discussed my Academic Suspension, reviewed my Appeal document, and academic plan, and requested my advisor submit the online Advisor Comment Card to verify our meeting about my Academic Suspension Appeal.

By signing below, I hereby certify that all information included in this appeal and all
supporting documentation is true, complete and accurate.  My appeal will not be considered, if any item is missing, including signatures.

If my appeal is not approved, I am required to sit out one full calendar year before returning from academic suspension. I understand that submission of the academic suspension appeal form does not guarantee reinstatement and that the decision of the Academic Standing Committee is final.

Take the Next Step to Becoming a Wildcat.
