Academic Recovery Plan Information

Graduate students are required to maintain at least a 3.0 cumulative GPA in all work attempted while enrolled in the Graduate School, and must also meet all program-specific requirements. The Graduate School may request that a student complete an Academic Recovery Plan (ARP) for two reasons.

1. Cumulative GPA below 3.0

The cumulative GPA is well below the minimum standard (2.5 or lower) or the conditions of a previous academic warning period were not met.

• The student and graduate program will have received notification from the Graduate School indicating that the program must make a recommendation as to a student’s continuation in the program.
• If the program recommends that the student continue on academic warning, the ARP must be completed.
• If the program does not recommend that the student continue in the program, they must reach out to the Graduate School to recommend dismissal from the program.

2. Unsatisfactory Progress Report

A progress report has indicated that a student is not making adequate academic progress related to program-specific requirements.

In both cases, students must work closely with their faculty advisor (and in some cases the Director of Graduate Studies) to create a recovery and support plan by which they can return to good academic standing. Additional information regarding academic standing can be found in the Graduate School Rules.

Endorsements needed

Â鶹ÒùÔº will need to provide the following information to proceed:

• The name and colorado.edu e-mail address of their faculty advisor
• The name and colorado.edu e-mail address of the graduate director of their program (In some cases this will be the associate chair or associate dean)
  • If you do not have this information, please ask your graduate program assistant

Information needed for form

• Academic plan: prior to initiating the form, work with your advisor to create an academic plan to create an academic plan including benchmarks and a timeline by which you can return to good standing.
  • If your cumulative GPA is below 3.0, this includes specific courses to be taken and grades to be received in each (identifying which will be taken using grade replacement).
• Support plan: prior to initiating the form, work with your advisor to identify available support and the best way to check in throughout the semester to discuss progress and concerns.
• Supporting documentation if applicable, including any progress report completed by your graduate program.

Submission and routing information

You will receive notification upon submission, and the academic recovery plan will be routed to your faculty advisor and graduate director for endorsement, using the e-mail addresses provided. Your graduate program assistant will receive a copy. After review by the Graduate School, the student and program will receive notification.
