The goal is to help the student get back on track for graduation. 我们将仔细考虑学生是否有能力提高，以再次达到SAP标准并完成学生的学习计划. Appeals will be approved or denied. 上诉被批准的学生将在接下来的学期中处于试用状态，直到完全达到令人满意的学术进步标准. During probationary status, all terms, conditions, and any additional requirements of probation must be met, or the student will return to suspension.
