Academic Information
* Probation will be imposed when the cumulative grade point average is below
2.0 when a student has attempted over 60 semester hours.
Students will be placed on academic probation at the end of any semester that
the cumulative grade point average does not meet the published level noted above
for each classification. If at the end of that probation period, the student has not
been removed from probation, he/she will be suspended for one long semester,
exclusive of summer school. Furthermore, if the student fails all academic courses,
excluding skill courses such as Exercise and Sport Science or applied music, the
student will be immediately suspended for one long semester. Probation will be
imposed only after the student has attempted a minimum of twelve semester hours.
Students may reapply for admission after the period of suspension has been
completed. If readmitted, the student must improve the cumulative grade point
average sufficiently so that he is not on probation or the process begins again.
Students are considered to be making satisfactory academic progress as long as they
are not on suspension.
Academic Standards for Recipients of VA Educational Benefits
The academic standards for a student who is receiving VA Educational Benefits
will be governed by the Academic Probation and Suspension policy for all students
as stated in this catalog.
Earned Credit by Examination
Howard Payne University encourages superior students by providing a system of
earning credit through examination. These examinations do not satisfy residence
requirements and will not be made a part of the student's transcript until the student
has successfully completed twelve semester hours of college work at Howard Payne
University. Students who have taken or plan to take such advanced standing examinations
as Advanced Placement, CLEP, ACT-PEP, Dantes or other nationally-recognized
examinations are encouraged to submit scores or contact the Office of the
Registrar. A maximum of 30 semester hours from CLEP, APP, and SAT/ACT
scores may be applied toward a degree.
College Level Examination Program

to approval by the specific school and department in which the subject appears.
2. No subject attempted in class may be repeated by advanced standing examination.3. An unacceptable score on an advanced standing examination requires that the
student take the appropriate class if it is required on the degree plan.
