Academic Standing and Satisfactory Progress 

 

To complete their program, students must:

  1. Earn a minimum grade of 80% (or a B-) in all required credit-bearing courses, and

  2. Earn a minimum cumulative 2.7 GPA.

 

Relay reviews students’ complete academic records at the end of each academic term to determine whether they are meeting the standards of progress shown in Table 17. Certification/licensure-seeking students must meet standards for satisfactory academic progress as well as all state- and program-specific certification/licensure program completion requirements, which may include testing and qualifying clinical experience, in order to be considered an educator preparation program completer. State- and program-specific information on educator preparation program completion requirements are detailed in the program’s Transition Points Guide and corresponding EPP Handbook.

Every term, students receive end-of-term notifications of academic standing. Students should consistently monitor their progress in a course on Canvas throughout the term by using “What If” scenarios. Students who earned a grade between B- and F may end a term in good academic standing but still be required to retake the course in order to complete their program—this may delay program completion and will be noted in their end-of-term notification of academic standing. Students who have no failed courses and are granted one or more incompletes will have their academic status noted as pending incomplete coursework and will be informed of their term academic status upon resolution of all outstanding incompletes. The vast majority of students remain in good standing for the entirety of their time at Relay. However, students who are on academic probation for any reason have one term in which to return to satisfactory academic standing; failure to do so results in a program dismissal from Relay.
