Academic Progress
BBSH monitors the academic progress of students to ensure satisfactory progress toward completion of its programs. The following
criteria is used to determine if a student is making academic progress:
• Maintain a minimum acceptable cumulative grade point average
• Achieve minimum acceptable incremental program completion rate
• Complete the program within the maximum allowable timeframe
If a student is not making satisfactory academic progress, BBSH will work with the student to implement appropriate remediation.
Students failing to achieve minimum standards will be placed on academic probation.
Students failing to make acceptable academic progress will be notified in writing that they are being placed on academic probation.
Specific conditions that the student must fulfill to be removed from academic probation, along with the timeline for completing
the stated conditions, will be included in the notification. Continued failure to make acceptable academic progress within the stated
timeframe for remediation will result in dismissal.

• Achieve a minimum 1.0 CGPA at the end of Year 1
