Understanding your
Admission Status
Conditional Admission
Probational Admission
There are specific
steps you must take in order to achieve full admission status at Lewis-Clark
State College. The following paragraphs explain these steps and provide an
explanation of your current admission status:
Conditional
Admission
If an applicant does not qualify for full admission, he/she
may be
considered for conditional admission, but must demonstrate at
least the following:
1. Proof of high school graduation with at
least a 2.0 cumulative
GPA or completion of a GED with a standard
score of 500 or above (50 or above if tested prior to
2002), and
|
2. A minimum ACT composite of 14 or SAT
combined
score of 560 (if under the age of 21). |
• Applicants who are missing more than two semesters in
any one category of the high school courses outlined
above, or a total of more than five classes, will be considered
on an individual basis.
• Applicants with less than a 2.0 cumulative GPA directly
out of high school will be considered on an individual
basis providing they have a minimum ACT composite
of 14 or SAT combined score of 560.
• If admitted with conditional standing, the student is
subject to the institutional academic standing policies;
excepting that the student with conditional standing may
change to full admission status upon satisfactory completion
of 14 baccalaureate-level credits, 12 of which must
be in four different areas of the general education requirements
of LCSC while maintaining a 2.0 GPA. Full
admission status must be attained within three registration
periods or the student will be dismissed, subject to
institutional committee appeal procedures.
• Conditional students, their staff advisor and their faculty
advisor will plan a prescriptive curriculum including
a freshman success seminar to ensure academic success
during their first year. Frequent advising visits and reduced
credit loads (12-15) are suggested for conditional
students. Conditional students are required to complete
a student success course. Conditional students may be
required to complete specific placement or assessment
examinations prior to entry.
Probational Admission-
Proof of high school graduation
with at least a 2.0 cumulative
GPA or completion of a GED with a standard
score of 500 or above (50 or above if tested prior to
2002). |
• If an applicant does not fulfill the
minimum class requirements
as outlined under full admission requirements,
probational admission may be granted.
• If admitted with probational standing, the student is
subject to the institutional academic standing policies.
Full admission status must be attained within one registration
period by maintaining a 2.0 cumulative GPA or
the student will be dismissed, subject to institutional
committee appeal procedures.
• Probational students, their staff advisor and their faculty
advisor will plan a prescriptive curriculum to ensure
academic success during their first year. Frequent advising
visits and reduced credit loads (12-15) are suggested
for probational students. Probational students are required
to complete a student success course. Probational
students may be required to complete specific placement
or assessment examinations prior to entry.
